In Wheat Election
At Beaverdam Hall

Farmers in Richland, Monroe, jack
son and Bath townships will have an
opportunity to vote in the Wheat Re-
ferendum in the Richland township
room in Beaverdam Thursday, June
goth from a. m. to 7 p. m.
The level of price support for the
1858 crop of wheat is one of rhe issues
to be decided by farmers voting in
the referendum on marketing quotas,
Wilbur v. Bunke, Chairman of the
Allen County Agricultural Sterilization
and Conservation committee, reminds
growers.
The other issue is whether market
ing quotas, with penalties on ''eXcess'
wheat, shall be in effect for next
years crop. Quotas have been in
effect for the last consecutive wheat
crops.
Chairman Bunke explains that price
support for the 1858 crop of wheat has
been set at a national average of al
least S1.78 per bushel in the CONNER.
cial wheat States. This rate will apply
if at least two-thirds of the growers
voting in the June 20 referendum
approve use of the quotas. This sup.
port reflects IS percent of parity, as
indicated by the wheat supply rela-
tionships specified in the governing
legislation.
If marketing quotas are not ap
proved by the necessary two-thirds
Of the growers voting, however, the
price-support level for 195S-crop wheat
would be SO percent of parity, also
as directed by law.

ton. They went with confidence
to see the principal. That was
the right thing to do then and
it's still the proper thing to do
During the time that I was
responsible for problems of inte--
grafton in the high school Sys-
tend, never went to see a prin-
cipal about a child. Having me
to lean on was only temporary
arrangement and I wanted to
help prepare both adminiStra-
tors and parents for handling
these matters themselves. I
would talk over the situation
with the parents and suggest
what seemed to me the most
effective approach to the school
administration If for some rea-
son parents didn't get SatiSfac-
ton, I would suggest a different,
approach, probably to the super
intendent. Some elementary par
entS came to me or called me
and I gave them the same kind
of advice. Sometimes the par
entS went in anger and lost their
advantage in the situation by
their brash behavior. Sometimes
T heard no more from the par,
entS but from other sources
heard that they did not by any
means get satisfaction that their
children had been fairly treated
of felt that they would be fair
ly treated in the future. This
was possible before integration
regardless Of the color of the
children or the administrators
The Negro children have been
unfairly and over-harshly treat
ed sometimes by white admins
traitors. These cases can be cor
rected and should be, no matter
what the school or who the ad-
miniStrator. Children are help
less creatures and parents must
and should defend them now
just as they did before integra-
ton, superintendent and school
boards will not uphold overharSh
or unfair treatment of any chill
dren and administrators know
this.
Adjustments Of many kinds
must be made to this new situa-
ton and what to do and how
to do it about repeatedly bad
treatment of children by teach
ers or administrators, whoever
they may be, is necessary thing
for all parents to learn. Pressure
can make even administrators
assume wrong attitudes and be-
have irrationally, and new s1tua-
tions bring new presSureS. It Is
remarkable how little of this un-
happiness there has been. Ad-
ministrators are generally in the
positions they hold because they
are rational people.

FACING THE FACTS
w. A. Robinson

Perhaps as time goes on we
shall know just what is the real
attitude of the white House"
toward civil rights. During the
Presidential campaign ex-Gov-
ernor Pyle in a speech to Viz
ginia newspaper men assured
them that they would be smart
to vote for Eisenhower as he
would be least likely Of the two
candidates to do any thing about
civil rights.
Recently Bernard M. Stanley,
White House appointment Sec
retary to President Eisenhower,
in a speech before some college
students assumed to give the
"White House" opinion that the
Supreme Court decision had
"done incalculable harm" in the
south. This was the explanation
of why the white House" Gould
this possibly mean President
Eisenhower?) was going slow
about civil rights.
To substantiate his statement
"incalculable harm" Mr.. Shan
ley said, feelings engendered by
the (Supreme Courts May II,
1954) decision have resulted in
the dropping Of Negroes, espe-
cially graduate students, from
universities in the south where
previously they had been ac-
cepted". This is the kind of "big
lie" propaganda that has always
been used against Negroes. It Is
effective because the detractors
Of Negroes do not question the
truth of anti-Negro propaganda.
They believed it when they were
told that the Negro was SO stupid
that he was better off in slavery
and he was satisfied and happy.
This was believed in and still is
in spite of the fact the south
was threatening war because the
north was sheltering thousands
of runaway slaves and slave up
riSings were frightening all sorts
of desperate laws through the
southern legislatures.
Now we have the N ,ACP whic h
we support by thousands Of
small contributions, which can,
as in this case d;sr ove untrue
propaganda, ard excellent news
papers to carry the facts to the
people.
Let's see just what the Presi-
dent does do about civil rights.
That's how we will know, If we
are smart, how to vote next time
we are urged to vote for the
'man and not for the Party.
