Wrote Mr.. Robbie:
Dear Cecil:
have just returned from a five
week trip to Europe and the Mid
die East. I mentioned in a note
to you from London where / was
attending the American Bar Con-
vention the headline attention
which was given to the Civil
Rights debate in the United States
Senate in recent weeks.
came away from my travels
fully convinced of the integral
part that American attitude and
laws in reference to the civil and
human rights of all Of our people
affect our position of leadership,
our moral reputation and our gen.
eral standing abroad.
AS the leader of the free world,
we must constantly take a moral
position on great issues of the day
including such things as colonial
ism, ornaments, treatments of
minorities and solutions of prob
lens involving hostages, refugees
or others suffering from the raw
ages of war.
We cannot strike strong moral
postures abroad if we are vulner-
able to return attack on our moral
conduct at home and expect to
attain any degree of success.
A classic example occurred
when Senator John F. Kennedy Of
Massachusetts, offered a resolution
in the Senate attacking French
colonialism in Algeria. America
was promptly attacked in the
French press. L'AURORE, a
French conservative newspaper,
cited the SLAP vote of the Senate
granting the right Of jury trial in
contempt cases which, LAURORE
said, practically empties of its
substance the civil rights bill"
The French editorial continued:
IF there ever was a legisla-
tive act Of colonialist land some
will even say racist) inspiration
this is it, May we therefore hope
that the accusation of colonial
ism which has been too often
and too rashly aimed at France
by our American friends viii be
definitely shelved and particu-
larry so when we shall talk to-
gether OF North Africa? Does
the United States, which is so
hostile to the civil rights of the
Negroes, know that Frances
third-ranking political person
ality, NJ Monnerville, President
Of the Council Of the Republic, is
a colored man and a very emil
nent one7 Does II know that the
Negroes of the French Union
have the night to vote and that
their representatives, white and
colcred. sit with their colleagues
Of metropolitan France in our
Assemblies? Let II therefore ex-
anime its conscience and tell US
on what shore Of the Atlantic
are living the last colOnialists."
Wrote Mr.. Robbie:
Whatever the justice Of the
French position, whatever her will
hngness to justify her eolonialist
policies because our own policies
are vulnerable, however we may
argue that two wrongs do not
make a right las they certainly do
mott IL is nevertheless inescapable
that our position Of world leader
ship would be Immensely strength

THE WEEK IN
RECORDS
BY Albert Anderson
JUMPING WITH SAVOY

Two recent releases by Savoy
Records seem TO be Of fair station
in the jazz world even though the
effects and passages Of them in
some Instances does not indicate
greatness in a general degree.
Entit.y.i Jazz For Playboys"
and Hank Jones, the twin Savoy
record deal presents brilliant flute
work on the part Of Frank Wess
in the former album and unique
Jazz matter from Hank Jones in
the latter
Jazz for Playboys", is especi-
ally joyous jazzwise. With Wess
on flute and tenor; Joe Newman
on trumpet; Ed Thigpen on drums3
Eddie Jones lingering bass; Kenny
Burrell working the guitar; and
other sidemen throughout the
track. festivities soar throughout
the precincts Of jazz in a meet
exhihrating session.
Smooth, polished and agile,
Wess floats through a bevy Of
sparkle to the track with a few
tenor solos then goes on to add
sweet flute injections. Fertile and
novel ideas and changes are en-
twined in the opus, which features
such tunes as Blues for a Play
mate" Miss Blues, "Baubles,
and Bangles and Beads.
Background provided by veteran
sidemen is an added stimulus to
the track which is portrayed syn
copatedly and invigorating.
The opus is high as far as jazz
is concerned, blending the won
derful works Of Wess, Burrell and
Newman in melodious solo ses-
sions.
Hank Jones" the other Savoy
piece finds Jones on piano meeting
out a noteworthy session in con-
junction with Bobby Jasper on
flute, Aiding their cause in the
background is Paul Chambers on
bass and Kenny Clark on drums.
All established jazzmen, they
work out a uniquely effervescent,
free-swinging date with Jasper,
an up-and-coming flutist assert
ing himself nicely throughout the
track. Mobility of thought pre-
walls, as Jones and Jasper coagu-
late behind splendid drum support
from Clark and timely bass sug-
gestions from Chambers.
For the advocate of flute music,
the track is delightful, giving way
to the virile mind Of young Jas
per who copes with the high mus
ical intelligence of Jones.
Numbers include Moonlight Be
comes You, "Relaxin' at Camar-
mo-, and Spontaneous Combus-
ton"

Have you ever made a remark,

been sorry you did? Two women
who had been friends for years

small children had. We will call
one Mrs. 2. and the other Mrs.

The two children fighting were
four year old Helen q. and five
year old Mary A. When Harry T.,
age six, saw his sister getting
the worst of the pinching and
kicking he really slapped Mary A.
Mrs. A. came out and snatched
Harry by the collar and turned
him around as though she would
slap him. At this exact moment
Mrs. z. came out into the yard
