NATO Fears Bolster Frankfort
That Is One Theory for Large Army Setup There,
About Which Kyes May Have Something to Say

FRANKFORT, Sept. 22.-It
will be interesting OF see what
the recent visitors, Deputy Sec
retary Of Defense Roger Kyes
and his accompanying brass,
make Of Frankfort and the
elaborate Army headquarters
in the Farben building.
Time was when Frankfort
was headquarters for most Of
the correspondents and the
big show in Germany. Now
Germany is being run from
Bonn and chiefly by Germans.
The Air Force headquarters
are in Wiesbaden.
The 7th Army, begun by
Gen. Manton S. Eddy with
about one real division
strength. is up to five divisions
but is run from Stuttgart, with
headquarters in Heidelberg.
The Navy carries on its Rhine
River patrol from Heidelberg.

tionS under an allied COM
mission authorized immedi-
ately after the war. It
is unkindly noted here that
the commission never really
got going until after we
were turning the German
Government back to the Ger
mans. However, it still sits
at Koblenz where its French
Evening star., 1953-09-22

the speech itself argues We
hemently against consistency
and boasts that nothing that
has happened in the past ''is
conclusively clear and binding
upon us today"
First and foremost, the
speech sets out to prove that
the Republican Party is not
opposed to change. This is a
piece of defensive strategy
which recognizes the criticism
that the Republicans want to
stand pat. Thus the President
remarks:
1--WE are the political cap
tives Of no class or section or
interest Of our country-and
we are the prisoners Of no
static political or economic
dogmas ruling our decisions"
This is rather q broad claim
Of f1exibility for any political
party to make. It leaves little
room for loyalty to principle or
basic doctrine. It certainly
ignores many historic achieve
mentS Of the Republican Party
Of the last 100 years. The
President seemed to be floun-
dering-his unfamiliarity with
his own party tradition seemed
to project itself from many a
numbering paragraph. Thus he
says:
This is the kind of America
and the kind of Republican
Party-in which I believe. I
do not know how to define it
with political labels. Such
labels are, in our age. cheap
and abundant. But they mean
as little as they cost.
"We are many things. We
are liberal-for we do believe
that, in judging his own daily
welfare, each citizen, however
humble, has greater wisdom
than any government, how
ever great.
I'VE are progreSsive-for we
are less impressed with the
Evening star., 1953-09-22

difficulties we observed yester-
day than the opportunities we
envision tomorrow.
I'VE are conservative - for
we can conceive Of no higher
commission that history could
have conferred upon us than
that which we humbly bear
the preservation, in this time
Of tempest and of peril, Of the
spiritual values that alone give
dignity and meaning to mans
pilgrimage on earth"
Those are definitions that
are hard to grasp. For one
could easily interchange the
paragraphs and put them op-
posite a different label and
they still might be acceptable
as a generality applicable to
any creed Of politics or party.
The speech is hard to fol-
low in print. It sounds impress
sive on radio and television be-
cause Of the personality who
speaks the lines. But a very
small percentage of SO million
voters probably will under
stand just what the President
meant, for instance, when he
said: 1--WE have opposed the
confusing Of loyalty with con-
formity, and all misguided at
tempts to convert freedom into
a privilege licensed by censors"
One might hope that a
sentence like that would be
followed by an explicit ex-
ample. Otherwise, it is left
dangling in the stratosphere
as a piece of political ambi-
guilty in which the platform
writer's lose themselves. It is
reminiscent of the ponderous
vocabulary Of a Harding. It is
far removed from the ghost
written speeches of Franklin
Roosevelt. What they need at
the White House is either a
new ghost writer or a course in
practical politics.

of the outstanding work done by
this local club in aiding the needy,
especially the blind. To bring his
point more specifically home, he
cited the case of Mrs. Thompson
tblind), mother of Miss Myrtis
Moore who lost her home in a fe-
cent fire. We were told, as we all
know and appreciate, how the
Lions Club placed her in home
of her own.
We at Douglass know Just what
the Lions Club stands for as we
often call upon it to furnish or
help furnish eyeglasses for chill
dren whose parents are not able
to purchase them.
The browning point in Mr.. Al
bury's mission came when he call
ed Daniel Ashe, Jr., to the stage
and presented him a 5000 War
Bond through the Lions Club for
good citizenship.
Daniel Ashe, ST., then came to

Developing this theme taken
from the 18th and 18th verses, Rev.
Hooper reminded the graduates
that Paul was ambitious, and thas
he wanted to do whatever he did
well. He was building eharaeklg
and he wanted to build Il high and
broad and strong and true. he
wanted TO build Il for the ere a
God. He further went on 10 ~

them and press forward.
He told them to seek q goal In
life and try to receive q mark. AZ
there are many forces that would
lead them astray in these chaotic
times II Is necessary for the In.
dividual to be strong. He further
went on to say that they must seek

was the presidents message" de-
livered by Hilton Williams, presi-
dent of the class. In his message,
Hilton reminded the class of the
fact that each one is living in cha
otto times and that regardless of
how young they might be each

world and make it better place
because they had lived in it.

Carey, Alfred Saunders, Hilton Viii
liams and Charles Clarke.
The next mghlight on the pro-
gram was the class prophecy read
by Miss Bloneya Valdez. Bloneva,
seated at table, peered through
a crystal ball. She assured one and
all that she was a gifted sooth-
sayer and could see through the
future. Her predictions proved to
be quite amusing TO the vast aud
fence. This number was followed
by class chorus.
The next h:ghlignt Of the program
was the young lady lawyer, Alice
Winters, who executed the will. In
quite Portia like manner she
read the last will and testament.
The juniors sat in front most at
tentixely to hear what their late
superiors had wilIed them. Many
and varied we're the gifts. But
what was most amusing was the
bequeathing of respect to the Soph-
ignores SO that they may in time
show the same to the juniors whom
they do not respect now.
This was followed by a solo sung
by Alfred Saunders, Jr., valedic-
torian.
Then followed the presentation
Of the key by a senior, Anthony
Gibson to a junior, Samuel Han
nibal. Anthony said that through
him the seniors were presenting
the key to the juniors in the
hope that it would open the door
of knowledge to them.
Then followed remarks by Pro-
fessr Allen, principal of Douglass
School. He thanked the general
public for standing behind him
and asked them to continue to sup
port the school. He then recognized
the presence Of Mr.. Duncan, a
member of the Monroe County
School Board. Mr.. Duncan came
to the stage and tod Of his con-
tinuous interest in anything per-
tanning to education.
Mrs. Winifred Sands johnson
whose duty it was to make the
awards was then introduced by
MIR. Allen just before he introduced
the Regular Fellows Club who
made an award 10 the most out
standing athlete, Charles Clarke
and to the valedictCrian, Alfred
Saunders, Jr
Arthur Sands made the presen-
tation for the club.
Mrs. johnson then called on
Paul ]. Sher, an outstanding, civic
worker who acknowledges service
regardless of color or creed Each
year he awards a watch to the
outstanding boy and one to the out
standing girl Of the senior class.
Mr.. Sher stressed the fact that it
is not for scholarship that these
awards are made bui for contribu-
tons to society. These awards
we're won by Kenneth Carey and
Bloneva Valdez. A trophy in APP
probation of the amount of money
raised by Douglass in the recent
March of Dimes Campaign was
also awarded by Mr.. Sher.
Mrs. johnson then called Paul
