The Federal Reserve Bank here
takes a long, hard look at "Phila-
delphia in, the Fifties," in the fea-
ture article in its February "Busi-
ness Review.
What kind of picture does the
Bank see? A pretty good one. over
all; though the Bank hastens to add
that what you see depends little
on your pre-conceptions. To some
the picture is disappointing To
others much better than expected.
Progress in the 1950's has not
been so rapid nor come so easily
as many prophesied right after
u. S. Steel announced it was going
to construct massive new works
in this area, the Bank says. But for
progress to come to all in the face
of an exodus of textile firnls-long
Philadelphia leading industry-is
to others quite remarkable.
On the favorable side, the Bank
finds that the Philadelphia Metro
politan area is being peopled faster
than the rest of the country and
faster than most other large metro
politan areas. Port business is pro-
crossing at good pace: and retail
sales and construction activity are
at least keeping up with national
trends
On the other hand, there are some
disquieting parts to the Philadel-
phia story. Unemployment as a
part of the labor force consistently

felt she would be more valuable

Mrs. Brasure, who is state Demo-
cratic vice-chairwoman. said that
she is formulating plans for in
tensive work among Sussex Coun-
ty Independents in an effort to
bring them into the Democratic

A scroll citing the 'sunselfish and
untiring devotion to the Democra-
tic Party was presented to Mrs.

Mrs. Henning paid tribute to Mrs.
Brasure by saying that she right
fully earned the title of Madame

throughout the state.

Philadelphia Federal Reserve Bank
Reports On philadelphia in the

has been higher in this area than
for the nation as a whole Also
manufacturing activity is not pro-
crossing so rapidly in the Philadel-
phig area as in the nation.
The Bank says, 1T is disquieting
too, in sense, to see that some of
the things most frequently said
about this area have been resuted
by what has taken place in TIE
1865"
For example, it has repeatedly
been written that ssthe Philadelphia
areas economy is SO diversified
that it is safe to say it will go ss
the nation goes" But it hasnt &c
cording to the Bank. The nations
employment peak was set in 1856,
the areas in 1853. Employment in
the Philadelphia area rose more
rapidly than employment in the rest
of the country after Korea. It de-
clined more slowly here than in
the nation in 1854. And employment
here declined further in early 1866
while employment nationally was
rising. In 1856 employment here
came back much more slowly than
for the nation as a whole.
Needless to say, employment be-
havior over this period casts doubt
on another frequently used axiom,
''Diversification in this area makes
booms and busts gentler than for
the nation"

1856 Outstanding Year
For Phone Company

quate return on the money that has
been invested in the business"
The company closed out the year
with 10000 telephones in service,
representing a net gain of 14,700.
The number of telephones in ru-
raj areas continued to increase,
totaling 1890 at the end of the
year.
The report points out that more
than eight out of 10 families in the
state have telephone service, COM
pared to five out of 10 in 1916, and
that about 29 per cent of residence
customers have more than one tele-
phone in their homes.
The 1856 construction program,
largest in the company's history,
totaled $9,550,000 and was over four
times that of a decade ago. The
largest amount of the 1856 expep-
diture, s5,567 900, was spent for
wire, cable, telephones and related
equipment. The new Penn Rose
building in the northeast section
of Wilmington was completed and
central office equipment n d
switchboara Installed at a total
cost of nearly s3,000,000, the report
states.
During the year building addi-
tions were completed at Dickinson,
Newport, Rehoboth and SMYRNA.
Additional equipment was installed
in 19 central office buildings and
.87 800 miles of wire added to the
cable network.
The first installation of the new
ION" carrier system in Delaware
was completed in December, add
ing 1850 miles of circuits to the
long haul" network that provides
intercity service. This new type
carrier system permits as many as
20 simultaneous telephone CONVEX
sations on two pairs of wire in the
same cable.
At the end of the year 81 per
cent of all out-of-town calls were
dialed direct to the distant tele-
phone either by the operator or by
the customer.
The marine service telephone op-
orators in Wilmington handled 3d.
500 calls through the company s
coastal harbor radio telephone ser
vice. There are 1884 customers,
operating 1,575 ships and 40 air.
planes who use this service.
In concluding the report, Gillen
states: "We continued to contribute
materially to the welfare of Del
aware and its communities through
our local purchases, payrolls and
activities.
"The public has shown in vari-
Gus ways its approval of the quali-
ty of the service, of it's value, and
of the Company.
"Our most serious problems are
financial. We have met the mount
ing costs of operation and expan-
sion in part through major econo-
mics resulting from the introduce
ton of new developments and new
methods. Also, we are increasing
our revenues through sound mer-
lchandising and effective selling.
But neither economies nor sales
effort can completely solve the fl
nancial problems which confront
us and which are receiving our
closest attention"

Negro Denied Admission
Despite High Court Order

TALLAHASSEE, Fla, Mar.
(P).--Tne Florida Supreme Court
today invoked States rights to
deny Virgil Hawkins, Daytona
Beach Negro, immediate admis-
sion TO the University of Florida
Law School.
The State tribunals order
came down almost a year after
the United States Supreme Court
ruled that Mr.. Hawkins was en-
titled to prompt admission to
the all-white university.
In its SD opinion. the State
court said 1t could not conceive
that the United States Supreme
Court would hold that the
highest court Of sovereign State
does not have the right to con-
troll the effective date of its own
discretionary process.
The State Supreme Court said
that while 1t was refusing at this
time to order Mr.. Hawkins ad-
mission to the University of Flor
ida, the action was taken with
out prejudice to his rights to
come before the court again
when he is prepared to present
testimony showing that his adj
mission can be accomplished
without doing great public mis-
chief. ("
The majority opinion was
written by Justice B. K. Roberts
with Chief Justice Glenn Terrell
Justices T. Frank Hobson,
Campbell Thornal and Stephen
C. O'Connell concurring.
Justices Elwyn Thomas and e.
Harris Drew dissented.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-03-08

In a dissenting opinion, Justice
Drew said lit is a fundamental
truth that justice delayed is
justice denied This case has now
reached the point where further
delay will be tantamount to a
denial of the constitutional
right. Of the relator (Hawkins) :"
Mr.. Hawkins. 49-year-old fac
ulty member at Bethune- Cook
man College at Daytona Beach
has been trying for about eight
years to gain admission to the
all-white university.
The majority opinion said the
State courts appointment of a
commissioner last year to take
testimony to determine when
Mr. Hawkins admission to the
university could be accomplished
without trouble was based upon
two grounds-one State and one
Federal.
The opinion said the State
grounds was "thc exercise OF ON
traditional power as State
court to decline to issue the
extraordinary writ of mandarin,
If to do SO would tend to work
a serious public mischief"
The Federal ground, the Stat,
court said, was the so-called i'm.
fermentation decree Of the United
States Supreme Court in which
local tribunals were given the au.
thority to determine when segre.
cation would end in local public
schools.
