lintegration decision. they, like
the Democrats, did not COM
lpletely satisfy either side.
The Democrats last week al
lowed themselves a 30-minute
debate, in which Northern lib
erals made a futile effort to
write into their plank a definite
pledge to carry out Supreme
Court decisions against segrega-
ton.
The Republican platform was
approved last night without de-
bate, or any outward semblance
of disagreement. But as it was
being adopted, a group of lead
ers from seven Northern and
Western States Joined in a
statement, giving their interpre-
tation of what the Republican
plank means.
To Seek EXPERIMENTATION
The statement contained no
criticism of the Republican
plank. In fact. it described the
plank as being in striking con-
trast to the Democratic pro-
nouncement. But those who
subscribed to it said they would
work to implement the court
decision "by all means lawfully
available to our Federal Govern
ment, both executive and legis-
lative" as well as through con-
Citation and mediation.
This reference to implement
tation by legislative action had
been avoided by the platform
drafters, who said the work Of
the courts must be supported
by "all branches Of the Federal
Government"
Attorney General Jacob Javits
of New York was active in pre-
pairing the separate statement,
and was Joined by some of the
leaders of seven other States.
Duty Of Party
In promising to continue to
work in their States, and in
the counsels Of the party, for
THE implementation of the court
decision by all means lawfully
available to the Federal Gov
ernment. those who issued the
statement added:
I'VE believe that as the party
OF Lincoln. this is our duty and
that within our party's plank
We can consistently seek such
augmentation"

separate statement gave the
Eisenhower administration credit
for having ended segregation in
the District of Columbia.
Suffrage Plank
In adopting the platform last
night, the convention also went
on record again in favor of "self
government, national suffrage
and representation in the Con-
gress of the United States for
residents of the District of CO.
lumhia."
Indications are that in the
big States north of the Mason
Dixon Line, candidates for Con-
greSs and State Office from both
parties will go all out in support
OF the Supreme Court decisions
against segregation.
Aside from civil rights, the
Republican and Democratic
planks have set the stage for a
campaign based on the record
OF the Eisenhower administra-
ton. The Republican document
is a glowing defense of that rec
ord in every field of Government.
The Democratic platform found
fault with nearly every policy
the administration has followed.

people have full-time jobs, with

The farmers of America are
at last able to look to the future
with a confidence based on ex-
banding peacetime markets in
stead of on politically contrived
formulas foredoomed to fail ex-

collective is to insure that agri-
culture shares fairly and fully

Restoration of integrity in
government has been an essen

of our unparalleled good times.
We will faithfully preserve the

We will ever fight the denor-

proud to have fulfilled our 1852

OF the dollar by half, and robbed
millions of the full value of their
wages, savings, insurance, pen

We have balanced the budget.
We believe and will continue to
prove that thrift, prudence and
sensible respect for living
within income applies as surely
to the management of our Gov

the family budget.

Government leads to expansion
of the mastery Of our lives.
We hold that the protection of
the freedom of men requires that
budgets be balanced, waste in
Government eliminated, and
taxes reduced.
In these and all other areas of
proper Government concern, we
pledge our best thought and
whole energy to a continuation
Of our priced peace, prosperity
and progress.
Statement Of Principles
For our guidance in fulfilling
this responsibility, President Eli
senhower has given us a state
ment Of principles that is neither
partisan nor prejudiced, but
warmly American:
The individual is Of supreme
Importance.
The spirit of our people is the
strength Of our Nation.
America does not prosper I'M
less all Americans prosper.
Government must have a heart
as well as a head.
Courage in principle, co-opera-
ton in practice make freedom
positive.
To stay free, we must stay
strong.
Under God, we espouse the
cause of freedom and justice and
peace for all peoples.
Embracing these guides to
positive, constructive action, and
in their rich spirit, we ask the
support of the American people
for the election of a Republican
Congress and the reelection of
the Nations most devoted and
dedicated leader Dwight D.
Eisenhower.
Nearly four years ago when
the people of this Nation en-
trusted their Government toI
President Eisenhower and the
Republican Party, we were
locked in a costly and Stalemated
war. Now we have an honorable
peace. which has stopped the
bitter toll in casualties and re-
sources, ended depressing war
time restraints, curbed the run
away imitation, and unleashed
the boundless energy of our peo-
pie to forge forward on the road
to progress.
In four years we have achieved
the highest economic level with
the most widely shared benefits
that the world has ever seen.
We of the Republican Party have
fostered this prosperity and are
dedicated to its expansion and tol
the preservation of the climate
In which it has thrived.
We are proud of our part I'M

Declaration of Fuith

Americas trust Is in the mer-
ciful providence of God, in whose
image every man is created
the source Of every mans dig
nifty and freedom.
In this trust our Republic was
founded. We give devoted hon.
age to the founding fathers
They not only proclaimed that
the freedom and rights of mer
came from the Creator and moi
from the state, but they pro-
vided safeguards to those free
domS.
Our Government was created
by the people for all the people
and it must serve no less pur-
pose.
The Republican Party was
formed 100 years ago to preserve
the Nations devotion to these
ideals.
On its centennial, the Repub-
lican Party again calls to the
minds of all Americans the great
truth first spoken by Abraham
Lincoln:
"The legitimate object of
government is to do for a
community of people whatever
they need to have done but
cannot do at all, or cannot
so well do, for themselves in
their separate and individual
capacities. But in all that peo-
pie can individually do as well
for themselves, government
ought not to interfere"
Our great President, Dwight
d. Eisenhower, has counseled us
further:
I'm all those things which
deal with people. be liberal, be
human. In all those things
which deal with peoples
money. or their economy, or
their form of government, be
conservative"
While jealousy guarding the
free institutions and preserving
the principles upon which our
Republic Was founded and has
nourished, the purpose Of The
Republican Party is to establish
and maintain a peaceful world
and build at home a dynamic
prosperity in which every citi-
zen fairly shares.
We shall ever build anew, that
our children and their children,
without distinction because of
race, creed or color, may know
the blessings of our free land.
We believe that basic to gov
ernmental integrity are unim-
peachable ethical standards and
irreproachable personal conduct
rby all people in government. We
shall continue our insistence on
honesty as an indispensable re-
quirement of public service. We
shall continue to root out corrup-
ton whenever and wherever it
appears.
We are proud of and shall con-
tinue our far-reaching and sound
advances in matters of basic hui
man needS-expansion of social
security-broadened coverage in
unemployment insurance = i'm
proved housing - and better
health protection for all our peo-
pie. We are determined that our
Government remain warmly re-
sponsive to the urgent social and
economic problems of our peo-
pie. 81
To these beliefs we commit
ourselves as we present this rec
ord and declare our goals for the
future.
Servant or Master
We hold that the major world
issue today is whether govern
ment shall be the servant or the
master of men.
We hold that the Bill of Rights
is the sacred foundation of per-
sonal liberty. That men are Gre
ated equal needs no affirmation,
but they must have equality of
opportunity and protection of
their civil rights under the law.
We hold that the strict divi-
sion of powers and the primary
responsibility of State and local
governments must be main

number of children would buy milk. Very few didn't buy milk during the survey. Those that didn't have various reasons, one of which was that some of them brought their own milk from home.
 The survey presented several interesting aspects. The survey was conducted in an area that already has the highest consum- ption of milk. The program di- rectors feel that it would be even more successful where milk is not yet available. The study was made following conferences with Washington officials who recommended the survey. In Seward, where milk has not been available in the schools before, better than 90 percent of the students bought milk the first day.
 Survey reports will eventually be sent to Washington, D. C. in the first step to attempt to get the Special School Milk Pro gram extended to Alaska.

 one half pint serving but in the study they consumed log one half pint servings. Children in the states are consuming l.l25 of a half pint serving per day, according to the survey.
 Considering the findings Of the study, estimates were calculated for the Territory as a whole. There are in 1955-56 approxi- mately 130 public schools in All aska having an enrolment of about 28,100 students. At the present time only IT schools are serving milk to about 7200 stu dents. If the consumption in the schools presently serving milk was assumed to equal that of the Palmer schools, they use about 598,26 one half pints of milk per year. The Special School Milk Program could increase consumption 821,716 half pints to a total of 1,419,980 per year.
 The Special School Milk Pro- gram, if limited to the accessible areas where milk could be pro- vided, could enable 50 schools to offer milk under the program to 25,440 students. These students would consume approximately 5,011 ,680 half pints of milk. This represents an increase in Alaska of 4.413,416 half pints. or 738 percent. At three cents per serv- ing it would amount to $125,00 to $150,000 annually for addition al milk for the school children of Alaska.
 Teachers in the Palmer schools were reported to believe that if milk was made available during mid-morning and mid afternoon, even if it was three to five cents higher than the survey price of five cents, that about the same
