lin a Midwest Stutes
BY the Associate Press

Stormy weather raked sec
tons of the mid-continent to-
day in the wake OF tornado
winds which struck areas in
Nebraska, Minnesota, Iowa and
Kansas.
More than a score of homes,
business places and farms were
heavily damaged last night when
a small twister hit Rushmore,
in Southwestern Minnesota
Mayor John Van Maanen said
the town of about 400 came
through with no casualties.
The tornado leveled barns and
outbuildingS on the farms of
John Mulder. Harold Thorn and
Fred Ritchie. Mayor Van Maa-
men said whole blocks of trees
were uprooted.
Tornadoes yesterday also
skipped across Southern Ne
braska, striking near three
communities. Winds of tornado
velocity, severe thunderstormS
and hail storms swept across the
eastern sections of Kansas and
Nebraska and extreme Western
Iowa yesterday afternoon and
last night.
Tornado winds caused minor
property damage at Lyons and
Cassidy, Kans.

in advance. Hardly anyone knew
what to do.
Richard Garrett, chief of the
Topeka Weather Bureau. ordered
the alarm at 1905 (CST). Two
tornado tunnels were sighted
about $50 miles southwest of
Topeka near Cassidy and the
storm system was reported head
ing this way at so miles an hour.
The sirens blew. Anxious
callers tied up the telephone
lines into police headquarters. 1t
was the same at the Topeka
Daily Capital, radio stations and
the weather bureau.

was ahead, 7-6, in the ninth

ended few minutes later with
the score unchanged, but only
200 in the stands.
Two police prowl cars were
dispatched to the southwest part
OF the city to watch for the
tornado.

.cient Pharoahs" afflict the
modern invaders in days
ahead? One fact seems
certain. No good will come out
OF the attack upon Egypt.
And the time has come to
heal many wounds. At home
and abroad.
EQUAL RIGHTS is a simple
medical remedy that could
heal much of the Ills of this
world. This is a message that
has been preached over the
years by Tan Yank educators
like the late DR.. Charles
Johnson of Fisk, and such
college contemporaries as DR..
Mordecai Johnson of Howard;
DIR. Ben Mays Of Morehouse;
DR.. William E. Dubois, for

THE SUPREME COURT of
the United States finally &C
cepted the solid evidence COM
piled by Tan Yank leaders on
the solid proof based on over
800 years experience as to
the conclusion that human
race intolerance was a cripp-
ling sickness, destructive to
both men and nations and
was a malady which must be
cured from our democracy as
soon as possible. Mr.. Eisen-
hover has been working on
this cure with effective re-
suits.
FIFTY YEARS of Progress
compiled by the progressive
Pitte rurgh Courier featured a
lasting article by the late DR..
Johnson of Fisk who spoke
highly of the inter-racial CO.
operation toward equal rights
solutions. He wrote: This
identification of minorities
with one another has given
added strength to all in i'm
proving our American way OF
life; thereby removing some
of the problems of adjust
ment which grew out OF mi
nority status"
THE SPHINX of ancient
Egypt still studies the world.
1t has seen many rulers, ma
tons and civilizations come
and go. It has seen and pom
dered mans inhumanity to
other men and has endured
to see the mills of justice
grind slowly to verdicts such
as the recent US. Supreme
Court. All peoples are min
critics; the only majority is
God, not government. Men
like DR.. Johnson of Fisk who
preached this lesson did not
live in vain.
