hope of an African continent united
albeit by British influence, that
there are many pitfalls in the
path.
Beset BY Differences
For although Africa's emerging
young non-white leaders share a
common bond in their pulsing ma
tionalism, there are many regional
differences and jealousies to be
suppressed before such a breath
taking concept could successfully
come to fruition.
Among purely West African ma
tions, DR.. Nkrumah could perhaps
hope for greater success. But
even here it is doubtful whether
the great new nation of Nigeria,
for example, which becomes indie
pendent in 1860, and which is itself
already a union of considerably diff
ferent tribes and territories, would
react enthusiastically to the idea
Of sinking its new identity into
a West African union.
1t may well be, of course, that

French Union recently.
From the Vests point of view
the union may be particularly ben
eficial insofar as it may stave
off Guinea's involvement with So
Wet assistance programs pros
pect which must inevitably have
doomed if assistance was not forth
coming from another quarter.
For the moment, at any rate,
Guinea's coming under Ghana's
wing may be presumed to have
postponed this prospect, for it one
or two Ghana spokesman have
mumbled in the past about seek
ing help from the Soviets, DR..
Nkrumah himself has kept care
fully involved with the Soviets.
Indeed, if anything, he has ap-
peared to lean a little toward the
West. After his recent visit to
the United States he was pleased
to accept preliminary American
help with surveying his Volta
River hydroelectric project. He
also is receiving other American
aid.
In the declaration of union with
Guinea, moreover, the two coun-
tries said pointedly that they had
also drawn inspiration from the
thirteen American colonies which,
on attainment of their independ-
ence, constituted themselves into
a confederacy which ultimately de-
veloped into the United States"
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1958-12-06

behind DR.. Nkrumah's decision to
unite with Guiena lies the inten-
tion Of grouping about him the
smaller West African nations in
bid to .counterbalance the i'm
poftance that vast Nigeria will
surely have once it becomes indie
pendent
Certainly the union will increase
DR.. Nkrumah's stature as an AZ
rican spokesman, which. he already
has developed skillfully in the 20
months since Ghana won independ-
ence from Britain.
Ghana Takes Lead
1t seems evident that Ghana
will be the senior partner Of the
two, and DR.. Nkrumah has given
a dashing indication of this al
ready with his announcement that,
subject to parliamentary approval,
Ghana-although it needs devel-
opment capital itself-is to lend
Guinea $28,OOO,OOO.
At the same time, Guinea's
Premier Sekou Toure is one of
the strongest political personali-
ties yet to have emerged from
French black Africa, and there
seems little prospect of his being
subjugated entirely by DR.. Nkru-
NAH.
Although the exact nature of
the union has yet to be clarified,
and a constitution drawn up, it
poses one or two neat issues. For
example, this is presumably the
first time that a nom British ter
ritory such as Guinea, which for
merly was ruled by France, has
sought close association with a
Commonwealth member such as
Ghana.
Boon To Guinea
The Accra declaration said, in
cidentally, that the proposed union
was mot in any way designed to
prejudice present or future rela-
tons between Ghana and the Com
monwealth on the one hand and
between Guinea and the French
community on the other"
Certainly the union must be a
boon to little Guinea, which is ill
geared economically for independ.
ence, and which has apparently
had short shrift from France,
since it voted itself out of the

IL seems that everything l
do Is wrong. II she sends me

something she calls me
stupid" and '"dumb." The
same thing happens IL ! mis-
spell a word. My parents are
not very strict with me, but
! feel unwanted.
I want 70 dress like other
girls but my mother says !
am still q baby. She thinks
/ should not dress like a girl
Of 10. Other girls / know
wear their dresses just below
their knees, but / have TO
wear mine shorter. viii you
please tell me how i can
prove 70 my mother that am
old enough TO dress like other
girls?-LINDA.

so ! am sending you one Of
my own. Linda has just

She wants to wear her dresses
the length I wear mine,
which Is In the middle Of the

wear Iipstick all the time and
I've even had TO punish her
for shaving her eyebrows.
I'm not trying to keep her q

do you treat q l2-year-Old
who thinks she knows more
than her parents? She wants
to be treated like a "yOung
lady," but when we do that
she gets so out Of hand we
cannot keep ID up.-LINDA'S

people and usually I am on

case. Linda. ! think you are
mostly to blame for the fric-
ton between you and Nom. ]
do think II Nom has called
you stupid" or dumb" 1t was
a poor choice of words. II
appears to me that your be-
havior is caused by thought
leSsnesS, careleSsness and lack
of desire to please. rather than
any mental deficiency. Accord
ing to MONS letter you also
are trying TO grow up too fast.
At IL, you should not expect
to dress like a 19-year-old girl.
II you use lipstick at all 1t
should be one Of the very light
shades made especially for
younger teen-agers. AS for
shaving your eyebrows. that is
a mistake at any age. II eye
brows are too shaggy and need
to be shaped a little. a few
stray hairs Dust enough to
make a clean line) can be re-
moved with tweezers. The days
of the thin pencil-line eye
brows are gone-I hope for
ever!
So, you see, Linda, you really
are behaving like a small child.

going with a girl for over Ave
months and we are Just about

soon and she wants me to 70.
I don't like to dance SO I told
her I didn't want TO spoil her
evening but l wanted 20 take
her home after the dance.
Then I mentioned that I
would 60 to see an old friend
Of mine IA girl and talk to
her and her Dad until IL was
time TO pick my girl up. I
did have two dates with this
other girl but that was over
= year ago. Right away my
girl said, mo! You can 70
TO see them IL you want to,
but IL You do don't bother 20
pick me up after the dance"
DO you think II would be
wrong for me to do this? She
knows by now she can trust
me and ! love her. What do
you think is best?-MIS-
TRUSTED BOY FRIEND.
Dear "MIstrusted" Boy Friend:
My opinion may complicate
your situation still farther but
l think you and your girl are
both wrong. II she was really
IN love with you. it appears that
she would prefer to spend the
evening with you rather than
go to a dance stag. On the
other hand. If the dance is not
Just a regular dance but some
thing special. like her senior
prom. think you should be
willing to escort her.

step the school board made a
move to get the Negro kids out
Of there, each step Of the way.
And they are still at this late
date arguing the same point
against public violence.
The one single issue in this
case, with the case stripped
down, is the issue as to whether
or not a Federal district court
can delay an indignation plan
I-desegregation plan-already
in progress, solely because OF
violence and threats Of vio-
lence.
The decision of the Court of
Appeals is eminently correct.
1t should be affirmed in such
fashion as to make it clear even
to the politicians in Arkansas
that Article vi of the Consti-
tuition means what 1t says.
Solicitor General J. Lee Ran
kin for the Government-This
case, as 1 toll dthe court before,
involves the question of the
maintenance of law and order,
not only in this community and
the State of Arkansas, but
throughout this country.
The element in this case is
lawlessness. 1t is a community,
a small number at first at least
maybe more later-who de-
cided they were going to defy
the laws of this country.
There is another thing that
II object to in the brief of the
school board here and in the
argument. and that is this idea
that "there are two sovereign
ties, one on this side and one on
this side, and they are equal;
let's see how they fight it out.
We will join up with the one
that wins"
There is nothing to that
stuff" and that is all it is.
If this school board has any
doubt about what the law is, it
can turn to the Constitution.
Their obligation before this
country, in their own commu-
nifty, and before this court, is
to use all the power that they
have and exhaust it to try to
perform that oath, and first
start out with trying to carry
out the obligations of the Con-
Stitution Of the United States
as interpreted by this court.
They could at least come for
ward and say: I'VE will try to
educate the people, the school
board-"try to educate the peo-
pie during this 2l12 years" That
is what they should do.
How, if there is nothing that
is going on, if the courts them
selves acquiesce in this delay
can you expect that all of a
sudden the climate is going to
change and be in favor OF
