CHICAGO, June is P)-
chancellor Konrad Adenauer OF
West Germany said today time

hot war with Russia and "the
cold war will end in our favor il
we are wise and patient"
The 80-year-old Chancellor
stressed patience as a key to
dealing with the Communist
threat of world domination.
DR.. Adenauer told the Execu-
tive Club of Chicago that the
Russians have an attitude to-
ward time and the passing OF
time which differs from that of
the United States and of the free
peoples, especially the Europeans
ITO the Russian time is not a
very important concept. The
free nations lose patience too
easily; they want to see success
too quickly. He who can wait
has an advantage in a political
controversy"
DR.. Adenauer spoke through
an interpreter.
There can be no doubt" he
said, that the Russians can
achieve their objective-that is
Ito force the United States to its
knees-only by winning Western
Europe. They can never attain
this objective by allying them
selves with Asian states"
Europe alone has the indus
trial strength and war potential
needed by Russia to become the
strongest nation in the world
DR.. Adenauer said, adding that
q free and united Germany is
IAN absolute prerequisite for the
victory of the free peoples in
the great conflict of our time. {"

West German Chancellor Kon-
rad Adenauer is extremely
pleased" and treasured" after
his two-and-a-half days Of talks
with State Department officials
and the President, both Ameri-
can and German sources re-
ported today.
The 80-year-old leader of free
Germany visited President Eli

to return to New York, where
he addressed the Council on
Foreign Relations last night.
Join on Identification
American willingness to share
complete responsibility with West
Germany for pressing Moscow
on the reunification issue was the
main point of satisfaction for
the German Chancellor, it was
reported.
Lack of ambiguity in two pas
sageS of Wednesdays commu-
nique is regarded as particularly
reassuring by the Chancellor.
Secretary of State Dulles and
Chancellor Adenauer emphasized
German reunification," the COM
munique said, las a m a o r
objective of the West and the
conviction that the attitude of
West toward the Soviet Union
should be deteremined by en-
deavor to promote the reunifica-
ton of Germany in freedom"
Accord on Division Issue
At another point the two men
agreed that sit will be difficult
to place credence in promises
and pledges of the Soviet gov
eminent" until Moscow puts an
end to "the brutal and unnat-
ural division it has imposed on
Germany"
DR.. Adenauer repeatedly was
impressed with the United States
governments staunch refusal to
soften its anti Communist poll
icies in the face of the new soft
line from the Kremlin.
Another point Of significance
in the final communique, from
the West German viewpoint, was
the United States agreement to

WASHINGTON, DC. - The
U. S. Supreme Court was asked
last week to review the judge
ment Of the Florida Supreme
Court which refused to order the
state University to admit a Negro
student to its law school without
further delay. This is the third
in almost z years of litigation
that the judgement of the Florida
state court, which denied immed-
late admission of the Negro stu
dent, was brought before the high
court for review.
On May "a, the Supreme Court
instructed the Florida court to
reconsider, in the light of the de-
cision in the school segregation
cases, the ruling which denied the
Negro student, Virgil D. Hawkins,
immediate adInittance to the
state supported law school be-
cause of his race.
The Florida court admitted that
ii was bound by the u. S. SUI
preme Court May, 1854 decision
but on October IS, 1855 RULED
that to admit Negro students to
the state University would pre-
sent grave and serious problems. "
1t appointed a commissioner to de-
termine when and under what
circumstances Negro students
should be admitted to the Uni
verSity.
The commissioner was instruct
ed by the court to report his find
ings within 4 months. Despite the
fact that there were no known
hearings or proceedings held by
the commissioner, the Florida
Board of Control on January IL
asked the court to extend until
July 2, 1856 as the date for the
commissioner TO make his report
2 years after the u. S. Su-
preme Court instructed the Flor
ida State court to reconsider its
decision to admit the Negro stu
dent.
The request to have the Flor
ida Supreme Courts October IS,

in a petition filed here Friday in
behalf of Hawkins by NAACP

Supreme Court Again

Legal Defense and Educational
Fund attorneys Thurgood Mar
shall, director-counsel of Legal
Defense, Robert L. Carter, his
assistant, both of New York and
Horace Hill of Daytona Beach,
Fla.
The judgement of the Florida
state supreme court was based on
ne May 81, 1855 implementation
order, which granted time for de-
segration in elementary and Sec
ondary schools, rather than the
May II, 1854 decision as in
structed by the high court, the
attorneys for Hawkins argue.
Almost z years have elapsed
since Hawkins first applied for
admission to the university and
the action of the Florida court
subjects Hawkins to "irreparable
injury" Further delay in keeping
him out of the university could
we'll effectively deprive him COM
lpletely of his constitutional
rights" the attorneys complain.
Counsel assisting in the case
are William Taylor and Elwood
H. Chisom, both of the Legal
Defense staff in New York.

Courier Publisher Addresses
King Of Clubs Forum
BY ELLIOTT J. PIezE

100000 Colored people are
about TO be put to the severest
test of their lives. I'm firmly con-
WINGED that there is a small mi
nority Of people in this country
who are determined TO see TO II
that Negroes remain second class
citizens"
Those are only two of the many
practical and common sense
statements made Sunday after
noon at st. John Baptist Church.
This time the speaker was w.
Beverly Carter, publisher of the
Pittsburgh Courier. The occasion
was program number three in the
current winter forum series spon-
sored by the King of Clubs. An
other large crowd was present to
witness the occasion.
Speaking upon the many prob
lens with which the Negro is
faced especially in the deep South
in obtaining his rights and privi-
leges in this country, Mr.. Carter
pointed out instance after instance
of violent injustice which has
been inflicted upon many Ne
groes in recent months. The
speaker called special attention
to the many well known cases Of
violent action against Negroes in
the state of Mississippi.
The state of Virginia also came
in for its share of mention, with
S-ecial reference to the recent
action taken there by majority
of the states voters to circum-
vent the Supreme Courts ruling
on desegregation.
But the publisher also very eff
fectively told of the numerous
brighter sides of the current stat
US of the Negro both in this coun-
try and elsewhere. The Negro in
the Gold Coast of West Africa
came in for considerable
amount of concentrations.
In closing Mr.. Carter emphaSiZ-
ed the fact that Negroes all over
this country have no alternative
but to carry their share of the
load in the battle to become first
class citizens.
The speaker was introduced by
James Reed, a member OF the
Courier's Florida edition staff.
Music for the occasion was fur
nished by Northwestern Senior
High Chorus under the direction
of Mrs. Joel Ingraham.

Mortgage Delinquency
Reaches AII-7ime Low

Monthly payments on mort
gage loans were better main
tanned during 1855 than in any
year in the past, according to
a national mortgage delinquency
survey made by the Mortgage
Bankers Association Of America.
The survey also found there
was not too much difference In
the record set by CT borrowers
and those with Federal Housing
Administration and conven-
tional-type loans.
During the year that ended
December 81. 1855. the organi-
zation surveyed 2.082 ,384 loans,
and found total delinquency Of
IS. 507 loans or 2.1S per cent.
In the previous year there
were 42.l35 delinquents out Of a
total of 1.718,502 loans, or a
percentage rate of 2.45. During
1858. the first full year Of the
survey. the percentage of delinq-
uents was 2.52 per cent.
Conventional-type loans made
the best record of the year, with
FILA loans next and CT loans
third. However, the survey noted
that CT loans showed improve
ment over previous years.
The study covers only mort
cages on one-to-four family
units and in 1855 included 84S,-
500 CT loans. 757.741 FILA loans
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-02-18

and 476.045 conventional-type
loans.
After compiling the delinq-
uency data for three years, the
association has begun to notice
o seasonal trend turning up in
the figures. The yearly low for
deliquencies appears to occur
around June 30, while the high
point is always recorded at the
end Of the year.
