CHICAGO, Jan. 10.-Today's
the day We get the latest word
on home appliances and T'V

Mart Showings here. But yes

and economics fingers on.
The opening events gave a
Washington atmosphere to
these Windy City doings (some-
thing unexpected In home

four speakers mixing their
discussions with talk of poll
tics, quotes from Defense Sec
rotary Wilson. automobile &C
cessories or the economics Of
auto and furniture industries.
We felt right at home.
Elliott S. Wood. president of
Heritage Furniture, Inc. set
the days mood at an early
morning press conference by
agreeing with Mr.. Wilson's
statement, Whats good for
General Motors is good for the
country"
1T would be gross delusion
to imagine that the furniture
business could be good while
the auto industry was on the
rocks. Generally speaking,
when business is good, it's good
for everybody. When it's bad.
it's bad for everybody" he said.
Mr.. Wood went even further
to make the point: "Undertak-
ers tell me-" he explained. that
even their business GIBBS and
flows in almost exactly the
same ratios and periods with
the general business cycle. /
don't, however. go so far" he
stressed, "as to say that I like
to see the undertaking bust
ness good"
Politics and Economics
Mr.. Wood discussed the eco
nomic outlook thusly: 1856 is
a year of major political activ-
ity. Politics and economies be-
come progressively more inter-
related. OF one thing we can
be sure, genuine prosperity
exists only in periods Of indus
trial expansion. Industrial ex-
pansion occurs only in a favor
able climate"
He added, 1T is certain that
those executives making deci-
sions regarding expansion will
consider the climate favorable
only when they have con-
fidence that they will receive
fair treatment and conSldera-
ton from those in political
power"
Since the morning was
young, and the next speaker
represented the Simmons Co,
with a discussion of mattresses
on the slate, we sleepily dis
missed any more political talk
from the mind.
Mr.. John w. Hubbell, Sim
mons vice president. was
tuning in on the automo-
tive wave length, however.
Twenty-Five million mat
tresses in the United States
are old, obsolete and should
be replaced, he pointed out.
mot only are we Americans
buying more expensive auto
mobiles, but we are shelling
out additional large sums for
purely luxury accessories such

SOCIAL
SECU RITY

There used to be three i'm
portant times, when you should
get in touch with your social
security office. These three
times are ID when you are
IS, (2) when you are 72. and
90 if a worker in your family
dies.
Now a very important fourth
time for action has been ad-
ded. If you have worked at
least five years under social
security, but have been totally
disabled for work for more
than six months, ask about
having your account frozen to
protect your old-age and sur
vivorS insurance benefits.
This fourth time for action
is also important for those
who might become disabled in
the future. If you are inter-
.ested in learning more about
this new social security pro-
vision, ask your nearest social
security district office for leaf
let No. 4.

To these fossil-minded wo-

Are you bored? There are

RACIAL VOTE

lief, fidelity, honor and sound
judgment in a document writ
ten by the nations Founding
Fathers!
We are on the eve of the
greatest political test since
the Reconstruction era. Con-
gress in its present session will
furnish the propaganda in
which 100000 racial Ameri-
cans will be headliners in
the greatest campaign drama
ever staged.
Rep. Adam c. Powell, Jr.,
DEM, NY, may disdainfully
beat his breast when his rid
er to the public school con-
Struction bill is overwhelming
ly defeated, which is predicted
when it reaches the floor of
the lower House of Congress.
Powell'S amendment embraces
total notification of any
school construction funds be-
ing expended in any state,
who defys the US. Supreme
Courts desegregation DEGREES.
The above rider also eXpunges
any respective district in a
state that approves and has
started integration.
The Udall substitute seems
to have shattered Powell's
amendment to a gloomy legis-
lative aspect. Udall's subSti-
tute validates school construc-
tion expenditures to districts
in any state, regardless of Fed
eral court defiance, if a de-
claration has been mace be-
forehand to comply with in
tegration.
Speaker Sam Rayburn and
his Rules Committee will cat
apult a line of legislative STRAIT
egy never yet witnessed by on
lockers present in the CALLER
les when the eventful vote IS
Tailed.
Whispered undertones
against Powell's amendment
are, Pensions, Social Security
and Annuities when proposed
are never saturated with racial
recipients exceptions. All races
eligible receive the benefits as
voted by Congress. This, is
the main legislative bone VI
contention that Bills of all
categorieS have not yet been
tainted with racial restrictions.
Widespread predictions are
rife that Powell'S rider may
not receive a roll call! Powell
should not be underrated as a
virile politician and outStand-
ing religious leader. 1t Is
claimed on the other hand, he
has not measured up to a
standard of craftsmanship
compared with scores of party
colleagues during his career in
Congress.
His lack of this important
legislative assessment in addi-
ton to overburdened states
manship has made him a
deeply marked political leader
easily to be pushed around
and held down to the bottom
rung OF any ladder in grave
emergencies fighting BATTLES
for his race.

racial desegregation. A faint
glimmer of hope recently
edged into the widespread
explosive segregation issue. At
tacks from some Northern
states leaders on the us. Sup
RENE Court in conflicts of law
proceedings, whereby the Fed
eral Government is regarded
having prior rights, in which
all states must accept.
Below, is a brief summary
of indignation from an editor
ial review.
Something over half of the
state attorneys general have
disagreed with the Supreme
Courts recent ruling that Con-
gresS has preempted the field
of legislation dealing with
sedition against the Govern
ment of the United States. But
this disagreement is not una
nimouS, as discussion at the
annual conference of the Ma
tioal Association of Attorneys
Gen R1al has made evident.
Some seem to have missed
the point that the Supreme
Court explicitly stated a state
could legislate to protect itself
against subversion if it felt
the need and wished to.
New York's Jacob JavitS
came near the heart of the
matter when he declared he
declaring specifically it's intent
has no objection to Congress
Gas in the Taft Hartley Act
but definitely opposes general
legislation seeking to deny the
Supreme Court power to inter
pret the Constitution.
This latter is what the pend
ing Smith bill would appear to
do:
No act of Congress shall be
construed as indicating an in
tent on the part of Congress
to occupy the field un-
less such act contains an ex-
press provision to that effect.
The Constitution says:
This Constitution and the
laws of the United States
which shall be made in pur'
suance thereof shall be
the supreme law of the land
anything in the con-
stitution or laws of any state
to the contrary notwithstand-
ing.
That federal law is supreme
is, therefore, the constitutional
presumption. The Smith bill
would attempt to reverse that
presumption something THAI
would be like says Mr.. JAWS
"going back to 1877 and re-
writing the Constitution"
REMEDY OF APPEASEMENT
There may arise a trend Of
justification for a gesture IN
Congress to appease in some
manner the white supremacy
demagogues of the solid South.
The sadness of longStanding
racial segregation has be
come a mockery, which tears
of sorrow shed at this late
day can be dried only by be-
