there is some doubt in his mind
about the legality of a vending

Arlington Court UphoIds
Separate Seating Law

A Virginia law requiring sepa-
rate seating for the white and
Negro races at public meetings
was upheld today by Arlington
Circuit Judge Emery N. Hosmer.
He ruled that the Supreme
Court has not repudiated
the separate but equal doc
trine." He upheld a SIS fine
against an Arlington white
woman, Miss Faith Bissell, who
deliberately sat next to Negro
at a political debate last Novem-
Der /.
Judge Hosmer said in his
decision that "A trial court is
neither designed nor equipped
to perform the function of re-
pudlatinq the old and putting
on the new"
| This court recognizes that the
Federal Constitution, as inter-
Ipreted by the Supreme Court of
the United States, is as binding
on a State judge as it is on a
Federal judge. Ours IS a Gov
eminent of laws and not of
men," h. said.
No Decision on Nc ctingS
However, he said there | as
been no decisions from the ST.
preme Court indicating that sep
aration of races in a public
meeting so long as equal facili-
ties are available is unconstitu-
tional.

World Trade Has Important Effect
On Jobs OF Ohio Men And Women

World trade affects the jobs of
three out of four men and women
employed in Ohio's industries, accord

Steel and metal products exports
accounted for S315, 100000 of Ohio's
share of u. S. overseas sales last
year, the bulletin states. In addition,
Ohio factories exported $265, 5,OOO, 900
in machinery, 22O,OOO,0OO in autos

DECEMBER PHILOSOPHY

Time has no beginning and no
ending. Mans mind cannot conceive
sum of seconds minutes and hours
in terms of billions of years. Our
planet Earth with its one satellite, the
Moon, may have been turning on its
axis for several billion years. Ac-
cording to the Master Plan laid down
aeons ago, each cycle we label Year
is divided into four great rhythms.
1t is December now and in our
zone comes the time of rest This is
winter. Winter is an old Anglo-Saxon
word, flexible word, for we use it
as a noun, adjective and verb. In
our northern states it is chiefly the
noun and adjective; in the south and
southwest the hustling Chambers of
Commerce prefer the verb. Accord
ing to the advertisements, the verb
is increasingly important as more
and more persons winter in warmer
climates. q
December has the years shortest
day and possibly it is some compen-
sation that voices on the radio re-
mind us frequently how many shop
ping days we have until Christmas.
A man who puts off his shopping un-
til well into the month knows what
he is doing. Contrary to the opinions
of the ladies, he knows that he wants
to absorb a little of the shopping

is completed in early 1859, the bulle-
tin states. but some Great Lakes
areas may expect too much too
soon," James A. Farrell, Jr., presi-
dent of Farrell Lines of New York
City, declares in the bulletin.
Some general cargo shipments can
be expected at inland ports opened
by the Seaway, he said, But the ma
jor impact will eventually come from
export and import of bulk cargoes
such as ores and grains.

Retains Jurisdiction
Judge Hutchinson did not dis
miss the six-year-old case, how

so the Negro attorneys at a later
date may renew their motion for
desegregation after the defen-
dants have been afforded a rea-
sonable time to effect a solution >
Judge Hutcheson did not pass

which the State had used as q
defense in asking dismissal Of
the suit. In the Newport News
and Norfolk desegregation cases
however, Judge Walter E. Hoff-
man held that the pupil place.
