their profits q matter of record,

both as sellers and buyers, will be
some managers of portfolios of
stocks - their own or those they
control - who may be switching
from stocks which have had
notable price gains into others
which haven't joined the upward
surge as yet and therefore may
promise better yields.
All of these cross-purpose factors
should make the daily performance
of the stock market In the next
four weeks particularly interest
ing.
The amount of stock trading for
tax purpose this year end has the
brokers perplexed. At first glance,
there wouldn't seem to be many
losses to be established, so steadily
upward has been the main course
of stock market this year. Since
September 1858, for example the in

NEW YORK, H-In the jargon of
the astrologer the stock market is
now in the sign of the Internal
Revenue Service.
This is the time of year that stock
traders sell - and buy with IN
come tax returns in mind.
The new factor will color the
market picture, already compli-
Gated by the entry of the public as
an important buying element - an
entry which traditionally stimulates
buying, and worries some profess
sionals..
Profit taking also is an obvious
factor of weight in the stock mar
ket. Those who prefer bird in the
hand have been selling to cash in
on the gains of the exuberant post
election market. Their selling has
slowed down markedly. but not
halted, the upward surge of prices.
To this and to the newly en-
phasized interest of the public -
as always, on the bullish side -
must now be added the selling of
those who want to establish losses
for tax purposes, or those who for
reasons of their own want to make

WASHINGTON R-It probably
will be years before there is An
end to segregation in American
public schools.
The Supreme Court, ruling last
May that public school segrega-
ton is unconstitutional and must
end, left unanswered for the time
being the two key questions: how
and when?
The court now can't attempt 10
give the answer before far into
next year. Even then, judging
from the courts careful slowness
in handling the segregation prob
lem, it is unlikely to call for over
night action.
The court doesn't have to follow
the views of President Eisenhower
and Atty. Gen. Brownell but no
doubt will consider them. Both last
week came out for careful and
gradual solution as against a sud-
den one.
And those Southern states which
have given their opinions to the
court have called for gradual
approach as a minimum, although
Negroes. have told the court they
want segregation ended no later
than September 1856.
Afew Southern states in extreme
opposition to the courts ruling,
particularly Georgia, may try the
following kind of device for thwart-
ing any final effort of the federal
government to end segregation at
all:
End their present public school
system and substitute another
kind-for instance, private asso-
ciations-to keep white and Negro
children separate. The Georgia
voters approved such a plan in
the Nov. 2 elections. And Georgia's
Gov. Talmadge has said:
Segregation in Georgia viii not
be ended at any time"
The Supreme Court ruled against
segregation in public schools. An
arrangement like Georgia's, sup
ported by public tax money, would
be in effect a public school system
under another name. Or would it?
Some lawyers here foresee, be-
fore there could be an answer to
that question, fight all the way
up through the federal courts
again to the Supreme Court, a
fight which would take more years.
Although the court was first
asked in December 1852 to outlaw
segregation, it didn't give its opin-
ion until May II, 1854. This by
itself was clear evidence it under
stood the magnitude of the prob
The Key West citizen., 1954-11-30

the stock averages made 4 new
high for the year and you'll find
that a few individual stocks were
making new lows for the year.
Traders who guessed wrong on
them would have a loss to report
for tax purposes.
To do this the traders could
make a simple sale and the loss is
matter of record = for matters
of tax reporting they can't buy this
same stock back for 30 days. If
they still have faith in the stock,
as often is the case, and want to
retain their holdings, they have an
other course. They can buy an
equal number of shares of the
stock. They must wait 30 days and
then sell their original holdings for
loss-establishing, while retaining
the new block for whatever pur-
pose they have in mind. OF course,
il the price has gone down in the
period they had to hold both blocks,
they'll be sorry.
Selling to establish profit could
be for two reasons. Either the own
er prefers to pay the tax on the
capital gain this year rather than
next. or he has losses on other capi-
tai holdings which offset the profit:
result - no tax.

| lem and the need for care IN solv-
ing it.
The problem is not one but
many: the intense and ancient
racial prejudices that must be
softened or compromised; the
planning required in combining
schools and school districts; fl
nancing; redistributing white and
Negro teachers.
The court could have laid down
the rules on how and when segre-
cation had to end when it said in
May public school segregation 10
unlawful. But it wanted the bene-
fit of the views of those most
closely connected with the issue.
It asked the states involved and
attorneys for the Negro groups
fighting segregation to explain, in
briefs filed with the court this fall,
what they thought should be done.
The briefs were filed.
The states proposed the take-it-
easy course and the Negroes
wanted desegregation accom-
plished by the fall of 1855. The
last brief, from Brownell's Justice
Department, was given the court
last Wednesday.
That was one day after Eisen-
hover had talked to a news con-
ference Of the need for q solution
carefully arrived at. No doubt bs
knew what Brownell was going to
tell the court the following day.
Like Eisenhower, Brownell set
no deadline for ending public
school segregation. II should be
done as quickly as feasible" he
said.
And he proposed the high count
allow the judges in the federal
districts courts in those states
which have segregation--to work
out the details, and the timetable,
with state and school officials.
The court had intended, after
getting the written briefs, to let
the attorneys on both sides argue
before the court in December.
Now the court has postponed those
arguments until sometime, date
still unset, when it has full bench
to hear them. The nine-man court
now has one vacancy and Eisen-
hower's appointee for the job,
John Marshall Halran, Is not
slated for a Senate vote on his
confirmation until next year.
After hearing the arguments the
court viii consider them, perhaps
for months, before finally giving .
decision on how and when segre-
CATION must end, a decision which
may not come before next June.

SAYS U. S. s. R. HAD BIG BOMB LEAD

Two journalists releasing book entitled
"The Hydrogen Bomb which contends that the United
States - at time - Jagged many as four years
behind Russia in the to produce hydrogen bomb
They lay much of the blame for u S. nacton on atomic
scientist Robert Oppenheimer and on confusion in the
Pentagon.
The book tells the story of Russias first explosion
of Hbomb. which in August of 1853 The auth
claim the Russians exploded their first droppable H
bomb some six months before the United States had
similar weapon.
reassuring feature Of the book is the contention
that the United States has reganed the lead in the hydro
gen bomb and aircraftcarryng capacity But the
authors predict the Russians will have ong-range jet
air force capable Of delivering H-bombs in wholesale
numbers the United States within two three years
this latest prediction is to be rated with most of
the predictions concerning Russian ability to produce
weapons then the Russians might well have such fleet
in being in the next twelve months Generally speaking
the Russians up with weapons about twice fast
u. s. experts expect them to.
The significant part Of the book however, is the
fact that the Russians starting years after the United
States did - produced droppable H-bomb before we
did, This is astounding achievement and it means
that the United States in grave danger for
siderable period of months if the report is accurate
We in America sometimes too cocksure about our
industrial knowhow and one day this could lead to de-
feat in major war If not very careful very
lucky.

HOW TO SAVE
YOUR cHILD'S TEETH

The American Dental Associa-
ton makes these recommendations
to help you save your child's teeth:
Keep the eating of sugar and
candy down to a minimum.
The high consumption Of sugar is
main cause of tooth decay which
afflicts more than nine out of ten
children.
Dental scientists say that dental
decay is caused mainly by acids
produced by the fermentation of
sugar in the mouth.
See that your child cleans his
teeth thoroughly with toothbrush
after each meal - or snack" -
when possible. Tooth decay can be
greatly reduced simply by brush
ing and rinsing the teeth imme-
diately after eating"
The child should use q tooth
brush as soon as all his first teeth
are in place.
Provide your child with early
and regular dental attention, to
prevent serious dental problems
later on. In younger children, neg
lect can make for grave defects
when the second teeth appear.
