 American embassy officials sat in on the meeting.

 Van Fleet is personal friend of Rhee and often has expressed admiration of him.
 Just before the session began, Rhee issued a long-awaited public statement explaining why he pro- claimed martial law in Pusan, the temporary capital, and 21 counties in three southernmost provinces.
 He said his action-"necesSary and long overdue"-Was forced by increasing guerrilla activities in the region and was taken to prevent p tub lie demonstrations from becoming violent.

Missouri Votes Open

In Missouri it was all over but the ultimate balloting. A Jefferson son City Democratic convention put together a 32-vote uninstruc- ted delegation to the July 21 con- vention at Chicago.
 The delegation, which includes President Truman, was chary of expressing preference. Truman expects to go to the convention after the ticket is chosen-a proxy will cast his half-vote - but it was obvious the delegation was awaiting a sign from him.
 And the campaign wheels were spinning furiously in California, where 70 COP and 68 Democratic delegates will be elected in pri- mary a week from Tuesday.

 Jenny spent Monday night in her cardboard box and I tried to make her eat," Rogers daughter explained. "But the laying effort had been too much for her."

Mississippi S Political Depression

In more than one way, there is evidence of de-
preston in Mississippi reectng itself in the fact that
more and of the skilled workers of the state
finding necessary to go into other states in search of
jobs while increasing number Of the states unskied
workers being forced to join the growing ranks Of
the states unemployed.
Here in Jackson where the economic life reflects
the energy and prosperity Of the overall economic cond
tions and activities of the state the effect of the de-
preston is evident in increasing number Of business
failures and visible idleness in the martS of commerce
and trade.
1t would be unusual phenomenon in the light of
the prosperity in the adjoining states to have such
developing depression in Mississippi if the of such
depression not plainly evident. The depression
plainly evident in Jackson and in Mississippi gen.
orally is plainly the results of Missssippis politics. Or
it might be better said that the depression in Jackson
and in Mississippi is the result of the Negro issue in
MssissippiS politics.
Up in Washington the of the Democratic
National Convention and the election of candidates for
President and vce-President OF the United States and
the adoption OF the platform upon which the'Democratc
Party Will present its program to the people of the Ma

delegation in the Congress OF the o. S. in both the Sen

The coming of election time giving the opportunity
to elect Congressional Representatives offers great
challenge to Mississippi voters the fact being that Mis-
slssippi is now in political depression.
