Finally, some of the articles
warn that a Democratic Congress
will mean committee control by
Southern Democrats, hostile to ad-
vances for Negro citizens.

is aiming no special literature at
the Negroes this year, he declares,
leaving special efforts to the in

Republicans Agree
He argues and Republican
leaders agree this is their prob
lem-that the Negroes are espec-

the economic situation because
fewer Negroes have long seniority
or highly specialized skills, and
therefore are among the first to be
laid off.

pressive list Of Eisenhower a.
chievements for Negroes-ending
segregation in the Army and the
District of Columbia, appointing
Negroes TO important posts in
government, enacting laws that
especially benefit Negroes, like
the expansion in Social Security
voted by the last Congress.
One recent gain for Negroes --
the Supreme Court decision end
ing segregation in public schools
isn't being featured in the COP
campaign for the Negro vote.
President Eisenhower personally
stopped cold" any effort to claim
the High Court ruling as an "Ad-
ministration accomplishment" ac-
cording to a White House aide
Nonetheless, COP party workers
are hopeful the court ruling, COM
ing during COP Administration,
and written by an Eisenhower-ap-
pointed Chief Justice, will gener-
ate some good will for Republican
Congressional candidates.
Apart for the Supreme Court
decision, even such an Eisenhower
critic as the CLIO is prepared to
concede the Administrations re-
cord in the civil rights field has
been impressive. In fact, some
CLIO officials are more concerned
about which way Negroes win

cannot remain unaltered," the
civil rights leader declared that

macy OF any racial group, Is
doomed"
Neither science nor morality

THE rejection of science and

made "a real impression on some
Negro voters"
Big City Votes
Val Washington, ninorities d.
rector for the Republican National
Committee in Washington. says
he's expecting the COP to pick up
another ten to Is per cent of the
Negro vote in most large cities
except such Democratic strong
holds as Detroit and New York.
He thinks such gains will be
mighty helpful to COP candidates
in states like Ohio. Illinois, Penn
sylvania, Massachusetts,, Missouri
and Maryland, where Republican
candidates must win close contests
to keep control of the next Con-
gress.
Mr.. Washington and the COP
are getting some significant help
in their battle for the Negro vote.
Articles in the press recently have
been so loud in praise of the Eisen-
hover Administration record in
behalf of Negroes that the Re-
publican National Committee has
had to write no campaign htera-
ture of its own. Instead, it's been
reprinting friendly magazine and
newspaper articles.
A good example is an article
from the Readers Digest by Ne
gro Congressman Clayton Powell
Jr. ID, n. ". His theme is
sounded in the opening paragraph:
In less than two years in the
White House, President Eisen-
hover, without political trumpet
ing, has quietly started a revolu-
ton, which, I firmly believe,
means an area Of greater promise
for the Negro citizen"
Republicans are circulating l.
500. 900 to 1000, 600 reprints of Mr..
Powells article, together with
close to a million copies of a spec
cial 12-page section from the pro-
Republican Negro paper, the
Pittsburgh Courier, which devotes
10 pages to reviewing Ike's civil
rights achievements. Says the
Pittsburgh paper: Presi d n
Eisenhower has done more to
give Negroes equal civil rights
than any President since Lincoln,
and more in 20 months than
Roosevelt and Truman, together
did in 20 years"
Gains for Negroes
Both articles tick off much the
same Eisenhower gains for Ne.
groes:
The new Administration has fol
the first time in many years ad'
naitted Negroes to social functions
at the White House. 1t has ap'
pointed Negroes to important
new jobs-the first Negro to at
tend a Cabinet meeting assistant
Labor Secretary J. Ernest Will
kins); the first Negro secretary al
the White House Gois Lipp,
MANN; the first Negro full UN
delegate (Charles II. Mahoney)
the first Negro Federal Parole
Board member.

There are two families of stars
Each has evolved indepen-
IDENTIFY. has strikingly different
characteristics. and one is vastly
older and about twice as abun-
dant as the other. :
Creation is essentially two uni
verses mixed together.
This is the conclusion to which
astronomers of the Carnegie
Institution of Washington,
working at the Mount Wilson
and Mount Palomar observato-
ries In California, are arriving
with rapidly accumulating evi-
dence. 1t was reported to the
institutions trustees at their an
nual meeting today.
Behavior First Clue.
The first clue, according to the
report of DR.. Vannevar Bush,
president of the institution, came
about 10 years ago when DR..
Walter Baade of the Carnegie
staff. found that the stars which
constituted most of the nucleus
of the Andromeda nebula, did not
behave in ways characteristic of
the star population in general.
He designated them as Popula-
ton Two.
The Andromeda nebula is a
