You very kindly printed
a letter containing a quota
ton from Lincoln. in which
he said in 1858 he was not in
favor Of bringing about So
cial and political equality of
the races. The letter was
signed "Virginian." and I
wish to commend this gentle
man Cor LADY, for astuteness
in calling this bit Of sagacity
to the attention Of the public.
However. it certainly comes
hard for you to give ground.
You must have sat up all
night pulling through dusty
files. looking for some bit Of
history or oratory to coun-
teract the effect Of Mr.. Lin
coins unwilling, but quite
logical. comments regarding
separation Of the races. mo
tice I didn't use that nasty
word. "segregation.")
I wonder what your anti
thesis proves. other than the
fact that the much eulogized
Mr.. Lincoln was. after all, q
political hack. just like our
worn-out hucksters Of today.
who could speak equally well
out Of either side Of his
mouth?

big enough to change his

Keeps Calm

ITO every action there ID
an equal and opposite re-
action" At least that is how
/ remember some law OF
physics that I was taught In
school. In the case Of Sput-
mix, the reaction seems to be
the wave of hysteria which
is circling the globe at ground
level with the same speed
that Sputnik is moving in
the skies above.
I am not q scientist. but
/ doubt that the scientific
advance of the Russians Is
as great as we are being led
to believe. II the laws Of
nature, the unknown factors
Of moving objects at high al
titudes, and the fantastic
mechanical problems involved
in producing rockets Of the
required force and precision.
are as complicated as We are
told, I doubt very much that
the Russians have completely
solved all Of the problems
concerning the operation OF
satellites. An expert basket
ball player may stand Is
feet from the basket and
make a basket on the first
try. He may not make an
other basket at that distance
in another 20 tries. Another
equally good basket ball
player may fail 20 times and
make his basket only on the
2lst try. If the Russians can
make three baskets In q row
while we continue TO score
misses / am willing to ad-
NIT that we are pretty badly
licked for the time being.
Anyway. I cannot see the
Russians any more than our
selves gleefully sending the
world into mass suicide. so
what is all the excitement
about? Keep our powder dry.
keep plugging with every
thing we have to hold our
own in the race. but, above
all. try to keep a happy. con-
tented and prosperous ma
ton. and / will not worry.
I am what might be termed
a good natured slob. and
usually do my share in any
task assigned to me, but !
hate the thought Of regimen
tation, and dearly cherish
the privilege of criticizing
my betters. It holsters the
ego. and as long as We can
avoid hysteria and remain
happy and free in the eyes
Of the world. I think that q
lot Of people will envy our
way Of life and want to join
our side. If we organize our
selves as well as the Com
munists are organized. and
in the same way. it might
become difhcult for people
to choose sides.

How Hiqh Is Up?

Ever since the Russians
launched their artificial sat-
elite, my choler has been
rising at the constant misuse
of the term "outer space" as
applied TO the satellites or
bit. The mistake has been
endlessly repeated in news
and editorial columns and on
television and radio. More
recently, to my CONSERVATION.
the phrase was adopted by
several high officials Of the
Government.
One might well ask. When
and how did mans handi-
work hurdle space to reach
outer space?"
Outer space. admittedly. is
q loose term. but 1t has long
referred to regions beyond
our solar system. the vast
distances Of interstellar and
intergalaetic space. Our near
est star. other than the sun,
Is Alpha Centauri. 4.3-light-
years distant. The Andro-
media galaxy. an island uni
verse visible to the unaided
eye. pinwheels through the
void some 100000 light
years from earth. Obviously
outer space lies a wee bit be-
yond mans reach at present.
The region at the limit Of
our atmosphere should be re-
ferred TO by the unmodified
word. space. It can reason
ably be said that Sputnik
travels In space. though Q
few pedants would dispute
even that modest claim.
True space" they maintain.
begins at the limit Of our
atmosphere beyond the drag
Of the last tenuous reaches
Of the exosphere.
I have enjoyed your recent
series Of articles ON space
law. but perhaps you should
begin q series on the nomen-
clature Of space. Scientists
have recently coined q num-
Der Of terms that may one
day md their way into q
space lexicon. For example,
they use such expressions as
spatiography. gravispheres.
cislunar and translunar space,
cismartian and transmartian
space. and others.

have charge Of o division Of
, the Department Of Justice
devoted exclusively to ham
ding civil rights cases. The
law was designed especially
to guard the right Of Negroes
TO vote.
The Democrats. on the
horns Of O dilemma, are anx-
ious to keep the Democrats Of
the South pacified--as far
as possible-and at the same
time to convince the Negro
voters Of the North and the
South that the Democratic
Party has their best inter-
ests at heart. Whether the
elimination Of Gov. Faubus'
name from the statement just
issued by the Democratic
Advisory Council was in
tended to soften the blow to
the Southerners is anybody's
guess. The obvious effort Of
the councils statement was
to show that the Republican
President, Eisenhower, has
been derelict in seeking en-
forcement Of the Civil Rights
Act, and that he might well
have brought about integra-
ton in the Little Rock Gen.
trail High School without re-
sorting to the use Of Federal
troops and the liberalization
Of the National Guard in Ar
kansas.
No indication Of Retreat
The Southern Democrats
have given no indication they
win retreat, either. in their
opposition to school integra-
ton; that is. in States Of
the so-called deep South
South Carolina. Alabama,
Georgia. Mississippi, Louisi-
ana, and also Virginia. In
Tennessee and North Caro-
lima and Arkansas some In
tegration already has been
effected. No integration has
yet been made in the schools
of Texas and Florida.
A memorandum provided
by the Louisiana Association
of Citizens Councils gives q
clear view Of the thinking
of Louisiana Democrats on
school indignation. It shows
that in Claiborne Parish
County total taxes to be
collected by the sheriff are
s577,689. OF this total, only
S7.906.45 will come from the
Negroes of the county, al
though the population is So
per cent Negro and 43 per
cent white. This means, the
memorandum points out. that
the whites, 48 per cent, pay
98.6 per cent Of the taxes.
and that the remaining 50
per cent Of the population
pays IA per cent. Other
parishes. or counties. In Loui-
siana, the memorandum says,
have similar tax pictures
and so have counties in other
States Of the South. 1t con-
tinues: The Southern Negro
goes to good schools, rides
over good roads. and gets free
health service from money
provided. not by Northern.
but by Southern taxpayers.
VINO are the Southern tax
payers? These figures give

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES (. TRACEWELL

The transit company could
help a great deal by cooler
buses. but as long as they
permit their drivers to go
coatless and hatless ell win
ter, the warmer and stufher
vehicles will prevail.
At one stroke they could
compel cooler buses by the
simple expedient Of making
their drivers wear coats
and hats.
Then these haraSsed men
would not feel the necessity
to cook their passengers by
opening the heaters full
bias. ahead and let the
germs catch the hindmost.
Warming up, at the very
first feeling Of Q cold. is the
best step one can take. and
the most natural.
It is not for nothing. really.
that the common cold Is 50
called.
1t makes one feel chilly.
and that is the tip OF.
Warm up at once.
This is best done by get
ting into bed with q hot
water bottle or heating pad.
If the latter is used. one
should take great care not to
fall asleep, because the cleo
tricity keeps the heat going.
and If it is beneath the cev-
ers, as it should be, the de-
gree of heat builds up. which
a hot-water bottle does not
do.
Drinking q large amount
Of water when one begins to
catch cold is standard prac-
tice, approved by doctors.
1t was once thought that
orange juice was the thing,
but 1t is now held. we believe.
that almost any liquid will
do. provided 1t is not
alcoholic.
Smaller meals than usual
give one a chance to begin a
reducing diet where and
when it hurts least.
So a common cold. if taken
in time, cannot be held to be
altogether a loss.

Interrogation


Now that the Justice De-
partment has investigated
charges that Police Chief
Murray tolerated brutality in
his department and reported
1.-THE evidence does not war
rant criminal prosecution for
violation Of the Civil Rights
statues, should we not look
more closely at the overall
activities Of the NAACP?
Unfounded charges against
our law enforcement agencies
smell somewhat Of suhversion.
Should not q Federal Court
injunction be issued against
the District Of Columbia
branch Of the NAACP enjoin-
ing It's officers to cease inter-
fering with agencies charged
with enforcing "the law Of
the land?"
should not an investiga-
ton be launched to determine
what overall effect upon
inter-racial relations other
activities Of the NAACP In
the District of Columbia
may have?
Should Q branch Of the
NAACP be more immune to
court action in cases in
volving inter-racial tension
than one Of our sovereign
states? Rather. should local
officers Of the NAACP be
more immune than the chief
executive Of one Of our States?
Can Faubaus be more
guilty Of acting on what he
claims was reliable informa-
ton than can NAACP officials
in this particular case?
Has there been an increase
in resistance to law enforce
ment in the District Of
Columbia since the bringing
Of these charges by the
NAACP? H. Cassidy.

VFW Teen-er
Game

After rain showers had post
poned several games the V.F.W
teenrer league finally got under
way with Whitaker Motors down
ing Reynolds 10-5. Young 13-year
old Roger Edmondson started out
his Teen-er league career by pitch
ing a beautiful four hitter at Rey-
nolds. With Boyd Erickson and
Dennis Williams providing most
of the hitting Roger had a fairly
easy time with the Reynolds team.
Starring for the Reynolds team
was a new boy in Sidney by the
name of Ernie Bordeaux, who
came on to do the pitching in the
second inning and did a very COM
mendable job. For the first game
of the season the-boys showed up
very well and played good base
ball.
