lof an attorney general to fill
the vacancy which will be Gre
lated when Senator-elect Jacob
K. Javtts resigns. David w. Peck,
presiding Justice of the Appel
late Division of the New York
Supreme Court. has strong back
ing for the Office, which will be
filled by the Legislature. Justice
Peck is a close friend Of former
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey. Mr..
Dewey. however. has denied he
has any candidate for the at
torney generalship.
Should Justice Peck become
attorney general, the belief is he
would be in position to make a
real bid for the gubernatorial
nomination. 1t happens that the
Republican leader of the State
Senate. Walter j. Mahoney, and
the Republican speaker of the
Assembly, Oswald D. Heck, both
have ambitions for the guberna-
torial nomination. They are not
anxious to build up a strong
rival. Several other candidates
for attorney general are in the
field, among them Louis j. Lef-
kowitz, counsel to the Republi-
can State Committee, and As
semblyman Malcolm Wilson Of
Yonkers. A meeting Of Republic
can leaders to thresh out this
matter will be held soon, on the
call of Republican State Chair
man L. Judson Morhouse.
Hall Candidacy Hinted
Republican National Chairman
Leonard w. Hall. former New
York congressman, is keeping his
future political ambitions to
himself, but he is regarded in
many quarters here as probably
the strongest candidate the Re-
publicans could name for Gov
ernor. The White House is said
to be anxious to have Mr.. Hall
continue as G. o. P. national
chairman. but Mr.. Halls own
is to move from the
position he has held for nearly
four years. Mr.. Hall conferred

VETERANS
NEWS
ARIZONA SUN

Veterans Administration is
surveying 305,G00 veterans seri-
ously disabled in service to
bring their family status up to
date.
VA said only those veterans
who are so per cent or more
disabled and who receive ad-
ditional compensation because
of dependents are involved in
the survey.
The survey, conducted through
the medium of a QUESTIONABLE,
will not affect veterans whose
family status was determined by
VA since August 81, 1855.
Additional compensation for
dependents of veterans was first
authorized in 1948 and the fam
lily status of many disabled vet
erans has not been brought up
to date since then.
VA expects this additional
compensation for dependents
will be increased in some cases
and decreased in others as a
result of the survey, scheduled
to be completed by January l.,
1857.

Today there is an educational
crisis in America caused by a
school population that is grow
ing so fast that we cannot pro-
vide school plants to house them
or enough properly trained
teachers to teach them. Added
to this is the fact that the costs
of education, like the costs of
everything else, are rising fast
er than the increase in the tax
base can keep up with these
spiraling costs. These problems
are being felt by the sensitive
pocket-books of men in business,
in professions, by farmers and
workers Of all kinds, so people
in all walks of life have in
recent years become con-
cerned with the problems of
education and are discussing
these problems as if they were
all educational experts. Profess
sors of any of the academic
subjects in the colleges and uni
verSities are talking and writ
ing freely about the methods
and procedures Of the element
ary schools with as much te-
merity as if they had spent
their lives studying these prob
lens as scores of professional
educators have.
DR.. Frank Baxter, described
by THIS WEEK magazine Of
Nov. 18, as Professor of English
Literature, University of South
ern California, and noted TV
Educational Commentator, ad-
vocates a plan to take the dull
lards out of the regular schools.
The professor doesn't tell us who
the dullards are or how to de-
tect them, (unleSS they are the
ones who "can't or won't" study
English literature), or whether
or not or how we are to try
to discover what makes them
dullards, or where to draw the
line between the educable or
the uneducable. AS a matter of
fact, Prof. Baxter on these
points is probably considered a
dullard by the men in the de-
partment of education Of U. s.
G.. to whom the P. U. H. S. and
P. C.. Board paid a sizable
amount to tell them just little

THE NEGRO
STRUGGLE
BY Jean Blake

In the delightful musical CO.
medy, "Finian's Rainbow" Sen
ator Billboard Rawkins of Mis-
situcky, who bears a remarkable
resemblance to Senator Eastland
of Mississippi, undergoes an
amazing Transformation. The
arch white supremacist, with an
assist from Irish leprechaun
magic, turns black.
This creates all sort of diff
ficulties for him, for his white
hirelings, for the sheriff and
sundry other persons, but every
thing ends happily. Senator
Billboard RawkinS' tranSforma-
ton is complete: His character
also changes; he loses his bigo-
try.
The real, live Senator East
land has not been struck by
leprechaun magic. He did re-
lease a statement recently call
ing for free elections. But it was
Poland he was talking about,
not Mississippi.
Eastland had the brass to pro-
pose that the United Nations
press for free elections in Po-
land. The statement would have
made headlines in the Ameri-
can preSS-aS a man bites dog"
story, if nothing elSe-eXcept
for the fact that the Democrats
and Republicans were so busy
singing hymns to the demo
cratic process" that all discord-
ant notes had to be drowned
out.
One such unpleasant note
was telegram from Roy Will
kins, secretary Of the National
Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, adviS-
ing Eastland to ask for free
elections in Mississippi.
Mr.. wilkins pointed out that
a "half-million potential Negro
voters" are prevented from vot-
ing in Mississippi by fraud,
trickery and terror"
He told the Senator, eve are
convinced that you can do far
more than urge free elections
in your home state. You can
use your influence as a United
States Senator to open the polls
The need for action in
Mississippi is even more urgent
than in Poland"
Unfortunately, life in MisSis-
sippi is no musical comedy, any
more than it is in Poland. No
miracles will change the Sen
ator EastlandS, nor the Stalinist
bureaucratS. The Polish work.

democratic control for them

their schools. Prof. Baxter does
not consider that it is the res
possibility of the public schools
to help the children and youth
of the community to the extent
Of the ability of each child to
live the best possible life in this
world Of rapidly unfolding
scientific knowledge, knowledge
of health, of chemistry, of phys

of these young people the good
life can contain enough of mu-

arts, of sports and other inter

Recently a local board mem
ber, who in four years should
have discovered enough of his

heard a lecture at a junior col
lege meeting, perhaps by an
other English Lit. professor, and
came away such an authority
that he is ready to destroy the
entire fabric of a good counseling
program in a secondary school
system that can afford a good
counseling program. This Sec
ondary school system also needs
a good counseling program. It's
