Jones County
Prosecutor Gets
Calls About
Negro Soldier
White Bride

Laurel, Miss. March 81 - An
associate editor of Jet, pocket
size Negro magazine, published at
Chicago, wanted to know what
would happen if Negro soldier
and his white German war bride
returned to the Laurel area to
live.
Jones County prosecutor Leonard
Melvin said a man, identifying
himself as Lawrence Still, assoc
late editor of the small magazine,
called him from Chicago to pose
the question.
81 told him they would be ar
rested, indicted by a grand jury,
tried, convicted and sentenced to
prison for unlawful cohabitation,"
Melvin said.
TIE county prosecutor said the
caller would not reply when asked
if he is Negro or white.
Last week Negro soldier
brought his white German war
bride to his home several miles
west of here. They were advised
that under state law marriages be-
tween Negroes and whites are pro-
hibited in Mississippi and that
they would have to leave the state
Or face charges. They left.
Earlier this week, a man who
identified himself as AL Nall, re-
porter for the Amsterdam News, a
New York City weekly Negro
newspaper, called Melvin to ask
the same question.
He got the same answer that
Melvin gave to the Jet associate
editor.

This is what the Holy Bible says
Train the child the way it should go
So most all | can see are raising
them up
The way they want to go.
The Lord gives to one this warning
today
To warn mothers and fathers to
wake up
You are feeding and raising most
children
No training will this be a child
crop.
We must obey the word of God
And Jesus Christ His redeemed
When you fail to train your child
Can you say Gods will hasn't been
done.
Why join the House of God today
And call it the church of Christ
Christ asks for the old heart in
return
His Fathers love to abide, His
will be done.
God will not abide in that old heart
Christ said will create a new
heart in you
There His Fathers love shall abide
For a life in you shall be all new.
Where will you spend eternity
With the laws of the land and no
Christ
Jesus tells us that | am the way
The doorkeeper to eternal life.
It's hard for you to set straddle
the fence
1t is best to get down on the right
side
Obey the viii of God the Father.
And you will have no need to hide.
Gods house is not the place to hide
To gamble on how much you pay
Jesus was the example for us all
And He said that | am the way.
This same Christ said these words
If | be lifted up l will draw all
men unto me
So stop lifting up the world today
And allow your soul to be free.
We have too much brain in the
House of God
Without the spirit of Jesus Christ
He said He would create in you a
new heart
That will give you eternal life.
By Rev. John R. Perkins.

eve rave filed one suit in ore
county, but you have 80 counties
and if there are 81 compliments
who have been denied the right
to vote and 81 come to us for help
we'll give all 81 the same help"
Mitchell said.
Mitchell said that only by getting
their voting rights can Jackson Ne
groes get sidewalks, paved streets,
regular trash pickups and other
aspects "of a pleasant neighbor-
hood"
He said American Negroes must
transfer the responsibility for up
holding civil rights laws from the
President and the U. S. Supreme
Court to "the front row right here
in Jackson" because another Presi-
dent may not favor them and the
high court may be shaken by at
tacks on it. He said this transfer
can be made only if the Negro
has and exercises the right to vote.
R. L. Drew of Clarksdale, rep
resenting tie Regional Council of
Negro Leadership, was applauded
when he said Eve want the right
to vote and we want it now, we
don't want gradualism.
1--WE have offered the State of
Mississippi a choice-of doing it
merely because we ask, which
would be well and good, or of be-
ing forced by the federal courts. If
they choose the latter, we will sup
ply those courts with the necessary
information"
The Rev. G. R. Haugkton, presi-
dent of the Jackson Progressive
Voters League, said the Negroes
own apathy is partially to blame
for their troubles. "You will find
no trouble registering in Jackson"
he said. "You will find no more
courteous and fine people in the
world than those in the registrars
office. Don't say you can't go
down and apply"
If they fail the test for registra-
ton, Haughton said, the Progress
sive Voters League twill teach
YOU" The league is holding class
es on the state constitution and re-
sponsibilities of citizenship. Pros
pective voters must interpret the
constitution and a citizens duties
under constitutional government
to the satisfaction of the registrar.
Mitchell, noting that the Missis-
sippi Legislature is considering
bill which would permit cities and
counties to channel tax money in
to the pro-segregation Citizens
Councils, said "How sad it is to
see the white Citizens Councils,
with dark glasses and a tin cup,
begging the colored people to help
them to keep going" Mitchell hint
ed passage Of TIE law would react
unfavorably against the councils in
legislative matters in Washington.

Denver Science
Meeting

DENVER, Colo.-Mr. Bolton C.
Price of Jackson, Miss, was one
of more than 1900 science instruc-
tors, supervisors, and researchers

pant in the sixth national conven-
ton of the National Science Teach
ers Association. Mr.. Price is
Chairman of the Science and Math-

College.
Improving Classroom Science
instruction" was the general theme
of the four-day convention, March
24-29. Each days program was
geared to a special aspect of the
theme. The NSTA is department
of the National Education Associa-
ton.
Margaret Mead, noted anthro-
pologist, who addressed the conven-
ton March 81, said that the science
teacher is not only "the promoter
of technical careers for a few stu
dents" but, more important is "the
person who can introduce children
and their parents to the major
ideas of modern science" AS such,
the science teacher plays "a great
role in the community" DR.. Mead
said.
NSTA president Glenn o. Blough,
who spoke at the opening conven-
ton session, called for a stronger
science program for all students,
starting in the kindergarten and
extending through the 18th grade.
DR.. Blough, who is an associate
professor of education, said that
no science program can be put
across without good teachers. He
stressed the Importance of good
grade school teaching, saying that
"unimaginative, miss teach
ing can turn youngsters away from
science even before they get to
high school,"
Paul Deli. Hurd of Stanford
University, who addressed the con-
vention Saturday, March 20, said
in a prepared speech that science
in the schools must be made more
down-to-earth, related to everyday
living.
DR.. Deli. Hurd said, Learning
is wholly accurate only insofar as
the student has opportunities for
a true experience with the phe-
nomena or materials under study.
Models and pictures or charts are
only second best to the real thing"
He called for teaching that included
FLOWERS that smell, frogs that
jump, fish that can SWIM"
More time and space has to be
found for science in the school day,
DR.. Hurd also said. 1.-THE greatest
need at present is to establish with
in the schools an area where ex-
pcriments can be left set-up for a
period of time-a place where stu
dents will have an opportunity to
work on an extensive investiga-
ton"

Department to control the freedom
of movement of American citizens"
Mr.. Worthy, a correspondent for
The Baltimore Afro-American who
has also written for The New York
Post and broadcast for the Column
bia Broadcasting System, applied
Feb. 25, 1857, for renewal of his
passport. The Civil Liberties Union
assisted in handling his applica-
ton.
Mr.. Malin disclosed the text of
decision and findings signed by
Mr.. Dulles March 81, 1858. These
had been sent to William NJ. Kuns-
tier, New York lawyer appointed
by the Civil Liberties group to
represent Mr.. Worthy.
Mr.. Dulles decided that Mr.. Wor-
thy's activities abroad, at this
time, would be prejudicial to the
orderly conduct of the foreign re-
lations of the United States"
The Secretary of State empha-
sized that his conclusion was based
on information in the open record,
including the applicants own
statements.
In his decision Mr.. Dulles took
full responsibility for restrictions
entered in passports invalidating
them for travel in certain areas.
Unrestricted travel by Ameri-
can citizens to such designated
areas" he wrote, would seriously
prejudice the orderly conduct Of
United States foreign relations"
Statement by Department
The State Department issued the
following statement:
Mr.. Worthy's passport renewal
application was denied under the
provisions of Sec. 51.136 (2) of the
passport regulations. AS indicated
by the findings the Secretary made
in the case of Mr.. Worthy travelled
to and in Communist China and
Hungary during the period Dec
ember, 1866, to February, 1857, in
violation of the limiting and re-
stricting endorsements contained in
his passport and in wilful disre-
gard of declared United States
foreign policy.
He used his passport in connec-
ton with such travel, and it is
clear from his testimony that he
would have no hesitancy in again
using a United States passport in
a similar manner.
In fact, he has refused to give
the department statement that he
would not again travel in violation
of the restrictions contained in any
passport issued to him. In these
circumstances, favorable action in
the Worthy case would have rem
dered completely meaningless the
departments present practice of
placing restrictive endorsements as
to geographic area in United States
passports in augmentation of for
eign policy detectives when neces-
sary in the national interest.
The rationale of this decision
is set forth more fully in findings
of fact which have been commune
Gated to Mr.. Worthy and his at
torney.
The following is the pertinent
section from the passport regula-
tons:
In order to promote and safe
guard the interests of the United
States, passport facilities, except
for direct and immediate return to
the United States, will be refused
to a person when it appears to the
satisfaction of the Secretary of
State that the persons activities
would: ~ violate the laws of the
United States; (2) be prejudicial
to the orderly conduct of foreign
relations; or (3) otherwise be pre-
judicial of the United States.

to Shrove Tuesday, the day be-

the term has come to mean the
