A WORD
TO THE WISE
MRS. FRANK Colby

ONCE Latin is carry-over from
the dear dead days Of elegance
and grace, when letters were lei
surely written In Spencerian cur
licues, and when there was time
to compose scholarly commercial
prose. But both the typewriter
and the efficient stenographer
are here to stay. and Latin, the
dead language. should be allowed
to rest in peace-at least insofar
as the business world is con-
cerned.
We should avoid such archaic
cliches as: "AS per your request"
Per is Latin for through; BY
means Of; by" Hence. las peri
is nonsense. Such expressions
as per diem, per annum" are
better usage when put into Eng
lish. Say: Five dollars a day;
fifteen thousand dollars a year.
Viz. is the abbreviation of the
Latin videlicet, meaning ut is
plain to see." Viz. in modern u.s.
age, means namely, that is to
say"
Sic is Latin for thus" 1t is
used principally as a parenthetic
sign that a quotation exactly
follows the original even though
it may contain an error in gram
mar or spelling, as: "TelevisionI
has made RADIO (sic) almost OBJ
solete."
"In re" does not mean with
reference to-" Re is the ablative'
Of the Latin res, "a thing"
etc" is the abbreviation for
the Latin phrase ct cetera, which
means literally. "and the others" ~
It is a convenient abbreviation
in such uses as: Wood, steel,
concrete, etc. (and other such
building materials. But It'll
should not be used thus: etc,
etc." nor like this: 81 remain,
yours, ETC." And ETC." Is redun-
dant, Tor it means literally land
and the Others"
There also is need for reform
in the wording Of legal documents
such as contracts, insurance pol
icies. deeds. wills, and mortgages,
to say nothing of Federal legisla-
ton, State laws, and city ordi-
nances. They are worded so OBJ
scurely and ambiguously as to-
be entirely beyond the under
standing Of people whose lives
are affected or regulated by such
documents.

ASTRONOMY NOTES
BY OLAF HALvERSON

The question of life on Venus
depends largely upon the length
of the planets rotation period.
This is still uncertain since no
surface markings can be found on
the planet by which the period of
its rotation can be determined.
So dense is the atmosphere of
Venus that its surface is, appar-
emily, always hidden from view
beneath a canopy of clouds. 1t is
the more general belief tn t
Venus, and also Mercury, rotates
on its axis once during a revolt
ton around the sun.
If that is true, then the same
side of the planet is always turn
ed toward the sun. The result els
that the surface is divided into
two hemispheres. One of these
has perpetual day and the other
has perpetual night.
Venus is the bright evening star
visible from o'clock until
o'clock in the southwestern sky.

The highest increases outside
Alaska were registered in Arizona

percent.
Figures compiled by the Office
of. Education show that enroll
ment in the University of Alaska

pared with 400 in 1854. This en-
rollment pulled Alaska up almost
abreast with Nevada, which had
1851 students enrolled this year.
lowest number of the 48 states.
Alaska led also in the category
of students enrolled in college for
the first time, showing an increase
of 209 percent. The Office of Edu-
cation said that 449 students en-
rolled this year were first-timers,
compared with 145 last year.
With national trend Of more
and more students going to col
lege, Samuel M. Brownell, COM
missioner of education, said the

first time. The national enroll
ment has been rising for the past
four year, BroWnell said.

1.-THE state could in the manner
suggested fill this vacuum of hosti-
lily and bitterness created by the
absolutism of the US. Supreme
Court-which the Congress has
failed to lfill-and meet each issue
with understanding, patience, wis
dom and realism"
Erwin said that necessity some
times force practical solutions,
even in the face of the highest
judicial authority"
AS one reads such terse ex-
pressions as given here it is
plainly seen that no quarter Is
intended to be given from the
segregationiSt camp.
It becomes quite obvious that
no consideration Is being given
the possibility of attempting to
work along lines of the Supreme
Court edict. Everything possible
is being done and said to stall
it off for a long long time.
These utterances by men in
government and other positions of
leadership do nothing more than
fan the flames which make for
deterioration of race relations
with each new crisis or COM
munity disturbance.
It is becoming quite fashion
able now for any seeming overt
act on the part Of a Negro to be
termed a breach of the peace
an act for which he can be tried
and punished In a court Of law.
It is also noticeable that many
incidents" which heretofore
went unoticed are being brought
to light with much fanfare. All ot
which ignites another spark in
the blazing furnace of hostility
and bitterness.
1t has been truly said that
things must get worse before
they get better" AS a matter-of
fact, it has been ever thus. But
we Judge such is the way with
humans. OF this one thing we can
be reasonably certain, the white
man in the South can not rise,
not even in the light of his own
conscience as long as he gives
most of his time and effort in
plots and plans to keep the Negro
back. The laws of evolution plain
~ tell us that nothing stands
still. Either it progresses or it re-
Progresses. So also it is with
People, Places and Things.

Gals seem to be taking against
working out a plausible solution
appears to be fortifying the camp
of the rank and file obStruc-
tionists. Thus it becomes quite
clear that the big challenge in
the issue is with the leadership.
State Attorney General Rich
ard w. Erwin proposed Monday
the creation of a Florida Advis-
cory Commission empowered to
recommend legal solutions to
racial problems ana to negotiate
settlements wherever possible
within the law.
Combined with this admins
trative agency, Erwin recon-
.mended a four-poirt Legislative
program he said would help to
cope with new racial problems
brought on by recent Us. SUI
preme Court desegregation de-
cisions.
The recommendations came in
speech prepared for delivery
before the Fort Pierce Rotary
Club in which he said that recent
us. Supreme Court desegrega-
ton decisions had resulted in
deterioration of racial relations
and were leading to hostility and
conflict.
The attorney general said the
Supreme Court in the school de-
f., segregation case had substituted
Revolutionary explosive absoiut-
ism" for its long-accepted sep
arate but equal doctrine which
he said had permitted settlement
of racial problems on gradual
basis.
Legal steps which he said could
be taken by legislation on con-
ystitutional amendment proposals
Ito meet the current racial prob
lens were:
/. An extension of the 1855
state school assignment law pro-
Widing additional administrative
processes and appeals both at
grade school and college levels.
The 1885 law permitted county
school authorities to assign public
school pupils to classes for which
they were hest fitted.
z. An interposition resolution
seeking to maintain the states
power of local regulation under
the reserved powers of the 10th
amendment. Erwin said whether
such q resolution would prove OF
legal value remained to be seen
"but it represents. until tested,
