nation. However the National
government, when it assumed cor
troll in 1949, reconvened the coun-
ell in conformity with the Law
requiring that the native group
work with the government on pro-
posed legislation affecting natives.
The deadlock between the two
bodies continued because Doctor
Ernest e. Janse, then minister of
native affairs, refused to appear
before the council to explain
"apartheid." His successor, Sen
Hendrix F. Verwoered, reconvened
the session which ended abruptly
Thursday.
Before the councillors voted to
discontinue their advisory activi-
ties Verwoered gave his explana-
ton of "apartheid" as the only
possible solution form of
development that keeps the white
and non whites separate in
stead of chasing wills-o-the-wisp
and striving for equality with
whites in a mixed community with
confused ideas and inevitable
clashes"

There are many things a child

follow instructions of the school
authorities, but at home he can
supervise many important func-

One of the first duties he rec
ommends for children is that of
keeping the house and yard free
from papers, boxes, old clothes
and combustible materials.
See that everything has place:
the toys, tools, flashlight, large

thing should be in its proper
place at all times.
Keep garden hose always con

Jackson College
Presents Annual
Xmas Concert

Through the cooperative efforts
Of the music department, art de-
partment, and the Dunbar Drama
tic Club, the annual Christmas con-
cert, "Noel, 1850" was presented

The concert depicted the birth

"The Confirmation" 1.-THE Annun-
citation" "The Alteration" and "The
Acclamation"
The choir, directed by Rogie
Clark, sang popular carols and two
selections from Handel's Messiah;
"And the Glory of the Lord, and
''The Hallelujah Chorus"
The Boys Glee Club, directed
by Mrs. Hermoine Williams, per-
formed, "A Star Was His Candle, .
and the laboratory school chorus,
directed by Mrs. Williams, sang the
beautiful Sweet Liz Jesus Boy"
Ave Maria" was played by Mrs.
Aurelia Young, at the organ.
The audience was impressed with
the effective and realistic scenery
and costumes which formed the
background for the dramatic scenes
and with the descriptive stories by
the narrators. The wind Ensemble
provided additional instrumental
accompaniment.
A feature of the concert was the
presentation of a ballet under the
direction of Miss Dorothy Bryant.
The audience joined in the tradi-
tional lighting of candles.

has been only a few years since
that was the situation. How
can anyone contend that such
legislation would remove the
post office from politics under
such a scheme? The argument
is absurd! This bill was Shelved
by the Post Office and Civil
Service committee.
The Citizens Committees and
organizations supporting the
Hoover Committee recommen-
dationS have been an effective
force. The President has auth
ority to put IS per cent of the
recommendations into effect by
executive order. But this has
not been done. The Congress
will cooperate and approve
most reorganization plans if
they adhere closely to the orr
ginal Hoover Commission
recommendations.
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1950-06-08

told the Senate Post Office and
Civil Service committee, of
which I am a member, that
the above increases are insult
ficient.
The wiseSt course would be
to reorganize the Postal de-
partment before postal rate
juggling is launched.
The Congress has another DIP
problem. This time the DPS
are the Displaced Plans of the
Hoover Commission on Reor-
ganizatiOn of governmental de-
partmentS.
Of the 81 plans submitted by
the President to this session
of the Congress, not one of
them is identical with the plan
recommended by the Hoover
Commission.
A good example of the lat
ter came to light last week
when hearings were begun on
Plan Four of the 81. This one
proposed reorganization of the
Department of Agriculture.
The Hoover Commission of IL
and a Task Force of 8 agricul-
tural experts made their
recommendations in a 41-page
report and an appendix off 112
pages of charts and designs de-
failing the plan.
/. However, the plan submitted
to Congress by the President is,
in the words of some members
of the original Commission and
Task Force, mo plan at all eX-
cepting a delegation of Con-
greSSional authority to the Sec
rotary of Agriculture to regroup
farm agencies as he sees fit
and transfer funds of the diff
ferent agencies at will"
Two members of the original
Hoover Commission and four
members of the original Task
Force, headed by Dean Rusk,
were emphatic in their oppoSi-
ton to Plan Four as presented
to the Congress by the Presi-
dent.
In plain words, the Hoover
Committee plans on reorganiza-
ton are not being followed.
Instead, the Congress is being
asked in many instances to ap-
prove makeShift plans, some Of
which are patterned only In
part after the Hoover plan and
some are almost directly con-
trary to it.
One of the So-called reorgan-
ization plans for the post Of
flee, S. 2213, publicized as an
act to take the appointment of
postmasterS out of politics,
would have just the opposite
result. This measure would not
save the taxpayers one dime,
as postmasters' salaries are set
by law. S. 2213 would have
made appointments purely po-
litical and without consent of
the Senate as it is at present.
Under this Reorganization
Plan" the postmaster general
would have made all apoint-
mentS. How would such a plan
have worked when the poStmas-
ter general was also national
chairman of the Democratic
party? Or any other party? 1t
