THE FAMILY
ROUhDTABLE
By ELGIVA BALL

NEW YORK (GlobaD Dear
Miss Ball:
| have a so-called B. F. named
Clinton, and don't know what to
think of him. He has never said
he loved me, but he presented a
cut and dried plan the other night.
Here is the gist of it:
"You can make at least $500 a
month if you accept your commits
sion again and with my officers
pay, we can clear about $500 per
month. If we live on Post and buy
at the commissary, we can save
enough for me to go to medical
school in three years. Of course.
you will have to do the laundry.
If baby comes along, we'll that's
okay."
He also frequently mentions how
well-off my family is and how
much they could help young cou-
pie. All of this and much more
was thrown in, but never word
of love or Il like YOU" What do
you think of the situation? What
should l do
Lois - Arizona.
Dear Lois:
Are you contracting for a life
time job, or do you want hus-
band, home, happy family, love
nd Of he
your dear" Clinton is a fortune
hunter, lazy person, and one who
feels the world owes him a living.
Apparently he has decided to marry
we'll and make his wife do the
honors. But, my dear child, mar
riage is not an institution that can
be run on cold calculated theories.
Humanity must be considered. Love
enters and alters the picture, too.
Even if you loved this boy very
much, it would be better to marry
someone else. Experience shows it
is better for the man to have the
greater love. Clinton seems to be
seeking a mother, a housekeeper,
a maid, governess, but not a
wife. Don't give him a bonus.
Should you help him through med
ical school, he would have less re-
spect for you and later would prob
ably find other women to take your
place. 1t has happened many times
before. A real man would not ex-
pect, nor appreciate the things
Clinton is asking of you, without
love.
Clinton seems to be taking you
for granted, and if this is so, it is
time he should wake up.

Rep. Diggs Asks
Qualification Of
Training Course
For Guardsmen

WASHINGTON, d. c., July g.
In view of the current controversy
over segregation and discrimina-
ton in the National Guard, Con-
gresham Charles c. Diggs, Jr.
(D-Mich.) today asked Secretary of
the Army Robert T. Stevens for
Qualification of the proposed basic
training course for 10000 Guards
men, which is to begin July /.
A copy of the telegram to Secre-
tary Stevens was sent to Secretary
Designate of the Army WILDER
Buckner because, the Congressman
said, in the interim before the Sec
rotary Designate takes office, he
felt he ought to be appraised of
any proposals to change the policy
of his department.
The full text of Congressman
Diggs' kilograms read as follows:
Honorable Robert T. Stevens

Washington, d. C.
eve have noted an official an
nouncement of a program begin
ming July l, 1855 providing for
$4,000 National Guard troops each
year to take basic training at active
army installations. The announce
ment indicates that these National
Guard enlisted men will be inte-
grated with other trainees. am.
of course, assuming that this in
cludes complete racial Indignation
as is now characteristic of all ac-
tive units in the services.
II seek information, however, re-
garding the discriminatory basis
upon which the National Guard re-
cruits come forward for this train
ing.
"In many states, the Negro citi-
zen is denied enlistment in the Ma
tional Guard, solely on the basis of
race. 1t is announced the National
Guard Bureau will provide all
funds necessary to support the
program except those required for
installation maintenance and train
ing.
This indicates to me that here
we have another case of the use of
federal funds for aiding and ex-
tending procedures for discriminate
ing against citizens because of
their race and fostering through
the back door the very practices
objected to by the proponents of
the anti-segregation amendment to
the proposed new reserve bill.
"To be specific, may | be in
formed as to how an individual
Negro citizen of the United States
and of Louisiana, a veteran of the
Korean conflict, and decorated, can
arrange for inclusion among the
100 citizens Of Louisiana who are
to receive this active duty train
mig each year at Camp Chaffee.
Arkansas.
at is encouraging to know that
all training will conform to Army
doctrine and that the trainees will
be required to conform to all Army
orders and directives.
81 hope, therefore, that l may
receive in prompt reply assurance
that this program beginning july
l, 1855, will be opened to all citi-
zens otherwise eligible, without
regard to race, creed, or color"

A survey of sheep and lambs in
the area indicates that producers
interested in using the pool will
market about 1000 lambs during
this market season.
The purpose of the organiza-
ton is to encourage better flock
management, and the orderly
marketing of lambs when they
are at maximum quality. The
lambs will be pooled and sold
by type and grade direct to pack
er buyers. Through this plan it
is hoped to establish reputa-
ton for quality local lambs, and
reflect maximum returns to the
producers.
The committee through the
pool will encourage the use of
approved purebred rams; a more
uniform type of lamb, along with
the control of both internal and
external parasites.
The operation of the pool will
be controlled by a committee of
fifteen producers representing
the three counties. Committee
men from Noble county are: l..
f. Hedge, George Lawrence, H..
r. Blackburn, Dallas Rich, and
Richard Starr. All sheep men
in the area are welcome to
market their lambs through the
pool.
Farm inspection of lambs is
available upon request to the
Extension Offices in the three
counties. A fee Of 48 cents per
head will be made to market
lambs through the pool.
The local improvement COM
mittee have made arrangements
for a commercial dipper to dip
flocks in Noble county during
the week of May 23rd. Requests
are now on file for dipping over
500 head of sheep. Other pro-
ducers wishing to use this service
should notify County Agent,
Floyd Henderson's office some
time this week. The charge for
this dipping service is 20 cents
per head. Dipping is the only
effective way to control ticks,
lice, mites, and ScabbieS.
