Doris FIeeson-
A Court Decision Of Significance
Explosive Possibilities Seen in Ruling on Segregation
In Schools, and the Justices Are Mindful of 1t

The Supreme Court did not
convene to hear the segrega-
ton cases until it's usual hour
OF noon, but before dawn the
people were lining up in the
hope Of getting one of the 200
seats in the courtroom. Most
OF them were Negroes eager to
share q climactic moment In
the struggle of their race to
achieve full equality.
Negroes realize, perhaps
more than most Americans do.
that they have made their
greatest gains through court
action. AS the Negro's eco
nomic status improved with
the country's general prosper
ity, he has pressed steadily ON
ward and upward through the
courts. Rarely in this genera
tton have they been rebuffed
by judges obliged to test their
arguments against constitu-
tional guarantees rather than
against public heat and pres
sure.
This week the high court
hears the arguments for and
against segregation, the issue
accepted by Negro leaders at
least as the symbol Of their
citizenship rights. Perhaps
those leaders exaggerate. But
1t is equally possible that such
Southern white leaders as
Gov. Byrnes of South Carolina
exaggerate white resistance to
a possible Supreme Court or
der when it has been fairly
won by due process Of law.
In any case, both sides have

mrs. B. ]. T.. Alerandria)
Since most children (norrnai-'

and begin now to show their
likes and dislikes very vividly,
here are a few menu suggeS-
tions that I have found to be
quite successful with my own
2-year-old daughter.
I often cook chicken, max
ing a nice rich broth, adding a
few celery stalks (halvedj, an
onion and a carrot and salt and
pepper to taste. I cook sep-
arately a bowl of white rice.
When the chicken is tender /
prepare her dish. consisting Of
the soup, the celery cut up in
bit sizes and the carrot Tin bite
chunks, but just a few pieces or
so from the start, so that she'll
not refuse it entirely. and then
add a few tablespoons or so Of
the rice and a little salt to
taste.
If it is dinner time this soup
is usually accompanied by a
drum stick or other portion Of
the chicken that they can ham
die with ease and is free from
small bones.

Another one ofSmy daughters
favorite dinner menus centers
around meat loaf, baked potato

Producing any new vegetable to
your son, go about it lightly

asparagus tcanned), the spears,
of a well known brand as they

You might also try the waxed
beans. 3.es

Hosty Promises
To Be Avoided
BY Teen-Agers
By Muriel Nissen

DEAR MISS NISSEN: For over
a year Phil and ! went together
and he never asked me to go
steady. However, two days before
he entered service, he asked me to
wait for him. ] like him very
much. and would have accepted
the idea Of going steady had cir
cuhlstances been different. Now It
would only mean that ] would
give up social life for four years.
-B. r.
Answer: One of the marked
effects of the Korean War
upon our young people is the
necessity it forces of making
decisions Z, about matters that
ordinarily would be permitted
to progress more or less aimlessly.
This is. in the majority of cases.
a decidedly adverse factor. Emo
tional maturity in young people is
not naturally reached except
through a series of setbacks and
progreSSionS that cover a period of
years. Yet young women, especial
ly. are now being faced every day
with the task Of making quick de-
cisions on whether to marry or
not. go steady or not, become en-
gagged or not. The difference be-
tween "now" and 'two years
hence" can be tremendous for
those In the teens.
When a choice lies between
making q pledge Of permanency
to a boy In service, or risking the
loss Of his friendship or love. most
girls are apt to make the hasty
decision that SO often proves la
mentally wrong.
So advise B. r., and any other
teen-agefs in a similar dilemma,
to avoid making promises. Where
there's a doubt, there obviously
isn't the complete love that should
accompany a commitment such as
going steady.
DEAR MISS NISSEN: I am 18
and Like q young man of %. while
my mother wants me to go with
one Of 81. I like the latter boy as
q friend, but certainly not enough
to go steady with him.
JEAN L.
ANSWER-You are old enough
to select your own friends, and
the ten-year-age difference be-
tween you and the young man you
like is not sufficient reason, IN
itself, to justify your mothers OBJ
Jectlons. She should realize that,
In this day., parents don't select
their daughters friends.

is copied from the Book of Com

England in Canada for Mrs. G.
L.. Washington..
Little drops of water,
Little grains Of sand.
Make the mighty ocean
And the beauteous land.
And the little moments.
Humble though they .abei
Make the mighty ages
OF eternity.
Little deeds Of kindness,
Little words Of love,
Make our earth an Eden
Like the heaven above.
So our little errors :
Lead the soul astray
From the paths of virtue q
Into sin to straw.
Little seeds of mercy
Sown by youthful hands,.
Grow to bless the nations
Far in heathen lands.
Little ones in glory
Swell the angels song:
Make us meet dear Saviour.
For their holy throng. Amen.

WELCOME, SECRETARY MCKAY
TO-DAY ST. CROK welcomes Secretary of the Interior
Douglas Mckay.
THIS FIRST OFFICIAL visit. of a cabinet member of
President Esenhowers political family is one which is heart
warming to all natives. Coming as as it does, as quickly as pos
sibIe after the Inauguration, this visit is most significant to one
and all.
SECRETARY MCKAY, as head Of Interior, which runs
the affairs Of the Island, is unquestionably the one official
whose attitude and approach to our local problems can deter
mine in the largest possible measure the future. of these Is
lands. It is he who can say whether deficiency appropriations
will continue. It is he who, can say whether a long range over
all program for the economic development of the Islands will
be put into effect, or a continued year to year, hit and miss
method.
EVIDENTLY SECRETARY MCKAY does not believe in
~delegating to others what he can do himself, and above all,
since these islands are known to pose a knotting economic
problem, he wants to see for himself. From now on, whenever
any problems concerning the Islands come up, he will know
exactly what is being spoken Of, and have a mental picture
Of the area itself.
OF H great advantages Of this visit is the op-
portunity for many Of our people to meet the Secretary. There
is no substitute for the exchange of ideas across a table, From
the mouths of many leaders Secretary Mckay will get for him
self an idea of those things which are Of greatest concern,
for it is often difficult to converse at any length without Civ
ing expression to those thoughts which are uppernost in the
mind. And so, in the meeting there is much merit.
III ON LIST of matters over which everyone
is concerned is the new Governor. 1t is difficult to conceive
Of the Eisenhower administration devating from its policy OF
giving expression to the finest principles of democracy.
In the case of the Virgin Islands it would be the appointment
Of a native for Governor, and absent that, then a Negro
American whose intimacy with many of our problems is GER
tain to make for easier understanding and therefore better

ALMOST AS HIGH on the list is the furture of the Vr-
gin Islands Corporation around which reVolves much of the
economic activity Of the Island, and the entire group. So long
as the Corporation keeps going, just 50 long is there the hope
that there is a way out. And we could go on and on.
BUT ALL Is. NOT cloudy and omfnous. There is here a
wealth of ~unspoiled, genuine, and very refreshing devotion to
the American way of life. Here, as we SO very often say, is a
people whose hospitality is practically unmatched, and whose
natural ability to make the visitor welcome is an asset which
transcends everything monetary.
ST. CROX IS o and most happy to welcome the
Honorable Douglas Mckay, Secretary Of the interior, and is
convinced that he will enjoy everything here. And when he
returns it is our hope that he will think kindly Of US to the
point where these thoughts will be translated into the type
Of positive action leading to those vital things which makes
for sounder economy and way Of life in these parts.
