Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1954-09-18

Sponsored by the National AS
sociation of Biology Teachers in
cooperation with the American In
stitute of Biological Science, and
financed by grant from the Ma
tional Science Foundation, this
conference was the first to bring
together representatives from all
levels of teaching and administra-
ton for joint consideration of
problems in the teaching of biol
ogy.
Since recent studies of the Unit
ed States Office of Education in
dictate less than sixty per cent Of
high school biology teachers have
the equivalent of a college major
in that field, and there is an acute
shortage of qualified teachers, this
was one of the major problems
tackled by the Conference. Rec
concentrations were made to train
the prospective high school teach
er for breadth as we'll as depth,
with broad training in the humani-
ties, social studies and communica-
ton skills, with the necessary edu-
cation courses to fit him to meet
his states certification require
ments, and with course in meth
DDS of teaching high school biol
ogy. 1t was recommended that
he have one year of General Biol
ogy or courses in General Botany
and General Zoology, with at least
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1954-09-18
Don't forget. He may be listening"

one-third of this in plant science.
The prospective teacher should
have the background necessary to
teach in related scientific fields,
as he is usually called upon to do,
and this training should include a
year each of chemistry and phys
les, with laboratory work, year
of mathematics and some training
in earth science. Field studies
were recognized as vital part of
his advanced training.
To improve the high school
teacher already teaching, the Con-
ference suggested various methods
of in-service training, including
the help of a science consultant
employed at the state level.
The Conference recommended
the establishment of salary and
rension schedules more nearly
comparable to those of other pro-
fessional groups in industry and
government.
The Conference recognized that
the high school student is to be
trained to take his part in COM
munity life and that his work in
biology should make a definite
contribution to that goal.
Co-directors of the Conference
were DR.. Richard L. Weaver, Asso-
ciate Professor Conservation, Uni
versity of Michigan, and DR.. Sam
uel Meyer, Head of the Botany
Department, Florida State Uni
versity. Scientists who led dis
cussion groups and served as con-
sultants in their specialized fields
were: DR.. Herbert Parks Riley,
University of Kentucky, Heredity
and Development; DR.. Loren c.
Petry, Cornell University, Evolu-
ton and Palentology; DR.. Claude

pattern of closed sessions since the
participants would engage only in
the exchange of developmental in
formation and no recommendations
or action proposals would be con-
sidered.
The principal speaker at the
opening session was Harry Ash
more, executive editor of The
Arkansas little Rock) Gazette.
He is the author of a report en-
titled "The Negro and the Schools"
a comprehensive survey of racial
educational problems that was
underwritten by grant from the
Ford Foundations Fund for the
Advancement of Education.
Mr.. Ashmore said later that
he had told the study group that
advances in public school racial
indignation SHOULD be measured
realistically in terms of good faith
and understanding of the loca,
situation"
"The important thing" Mr.. Ash.
more declared, "is to realize that
at this stage an honest effort BY
communities with large Negro
populations to work out plan that
is harmonious and fair within the
requirements of the law is just as
much an accomplishment as is vol
untary and full compliance with
law by a community with small
Negro population.
Yardsticks Called Important
"The yardsticks we use are i'm
| portant. South Carolina and Mis-
sissippi may need time and patient
understanding, while Kentucky cal
90 right ahead with a compliance
program.

Carolina and Mississippi are show
ing good faith in their longe'

was uniform throughout the coun-
try"
The Democratic publications sur
vey also indicated that Senator
Mccarthy had lost heavily in pres
tige, with both the public and his
COP colleagues, largely as a re-
suit of the McCarthy-Army hear
ings.
In separate article on the jun
Tor Senator from Wisconsin, the
Democratic Digest dwells on a
singular fact" which was not spot
lighted in the Mccarthy Army
hearings but (which explains most
of the Senator's recent actions"
1.-THE fact is" the Democratic
Digest said, MCCARTHY hates the
American Army. He has hated il
for years. He began his attacks
on this branch of the service early
in his first term as Senator. Year
in and year out, he has found one
excuse after another to smear the
Army, to denounce it, to bring il
into ill repute. Although many have
been startled by his savage assault
on the Army this year, few Amer
leans realize that there have beer
similar but less publicized McCar.
thy efforts to destroy the good
name of the Army"
The article traces McCarthy's
attacks on the Army from 1919
when he appeared as bitter critic
of the American Military Govern
ment's handling of Nazi war Grim
inals who were involved in the
Malmedy massacre. In the Nal.
medy atrocity, $50 American sold.
iers were murdered by Nazi So
troopers after being taken prison
ers of war in the Battle of the
Bulge.
The article also describes his
attacks on General Marshall and
General Eisenhower and relates
other Mccarthy clashes with Army
figures to bring the account up
to-date.
A fabulous new political charac-
ter. Sen. U. S. Mcfarland, zoe
percent American veteran of the
Old Guard, is introduced to Amer
lea in this issue of the Digest. He

journey toward a solution. If they
are not in good faith, then court
action should be directed against
them. But if they are in good faith,
that would mean as much right now
as border state that finds it can
solve the problem because of a
small Negro population"
Consequently, Mr.. Ashmore said,
ne emphasized to the study group
the need for the Attorneys General
Of the Southern states to file briefs
with the Supreme Court this fall
setting forth the local problems in
each state and the time factor in
volved in any school desegregation
program.
"The South must present it's
point of view if its complex local
conditions are to be understood"
Mr.. Ashmore said.
The states represented at the
meeting are Tennessee, Kentucky,
Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi,
North and South Carolina, Virgin
ia, West Virginia, Florida and
Arkansas.

Democrat Victory
Predicted In
Fall Election

WASHINGTON, Miss, Sept IS
A Democratic victory is forecast
for November in nationwide sur
| vey made by the Democratic Di-
gest, which publishes the results
in the October issue of the party's
official publication. The issue goes
on the newsstands on September
IA.
conservative estimates put the
House victory at gain of 20
seats, but there are indications the
Democrats could pick up twice that
number or even more" the Demo-
cratic Digest said. "a careful
shakedown of the b t information
available in the Senate would in
dictate a minimum Democratic net
gain of two seats"
A trend toward a Republican de-
feat was found to be general
throughout the country in the DEM
ocratic Digest's study of local and
regional polls, local elections and
primaries, new registration fig
ures, and other expressions of pub
lie opinion.
Even Republicans admit that
their party has lost ground, but
the leaders try to reassure the
rank and file by asserting that
I President Eisenhower's personal
popularity will pull the party
| through this fall the Democratic
Digest said.
After weighing the results of u
series of independent polls taken
+, throughout the country, the Di-
gest reports that, while Ike is still
popular as a person, he has lost
! prestige as a leader. In fact, on
the basis of these figures, Eisen-
hover today would lose many com
munities that he carried in 1852.
/ According to the Democratic Di-
gest survey, one of the major fac
tors in the drop of Eisenhower
prestige as leader was widespread
disappointment over the Admins
tration's failure to take a more
forceful stand against the Nc
Carthy challenge "All the evil
dence turned up by the Democratic
Digest indicated that this reaction

President Gets New
Pldne to Replace
the "Colurnbine

The Army has prepared a
new presidential plane for
President Eisenhower, to re-
place the "Columbine''. The
new ship is a super-constella-
ton. It was shown to the Pre-
sident who expressed delight
with it.
The presidential pilot how
ever does not want the Presi-
dent to ride in the new plane
until after she has been in
air at least 200 hours. Thus
far it only has a record or so
hours.
The engines on the new
ship are more powerful, is
pressurized to fly at higher
attitudes and has a greater
cruising speed said to be
$40 miles an hour.

Chinese Nutionulists
Will Get Logistic
Aid from 9TH Fleet

Orders have been given the
United States Seventh Fleet
to give full logistic support to
the Chinese Nationalist in
their defense Of the island Of
Quemoy, a Nationalist held
island nearest the Communist
mainland. The Instructions
were issued through the Joint
Chiefs of Staff and the office
of the Chief of Naval Opera
tons.
Thus the 9TH Fleet may give
supplies Of equipment and ma
terrell and may even transport
them for the Nationalist.
Fighter planes could be hand
ed over to the Chinese; in
short they can get any aid
short Of actual Intervention in
the fighting and this possibi-
lily has not been ruled out, as
the United States apparently
is now determined to prevent
the communists from occupy
ing all the strategic points
around the world.

The new organic act author
ICES not more than nine depart

port Of the House suggested
the first seven listed above.
Under Insular Affairs, accord

dations, would be grouped
agencies that deal with per-
sonnet, budget preparation,
public utilities control and
other regulatory agencies.
The departments would be
strictly insular, with assist
ant department heads elimin-
ated. Thus the head OF the de
