DR.. Clark Named
To Board Foreign
Scholarships

President Eisenhower had named
DR.. FELTON, G. Clark, president of
Southern University, Baton Rouge,
La, to a full three-year term of
the Board of Foreign Scholarships,
expiring September %, 1860. Pre-
viously, DR.. Clark, who heads the
country's largest Negro college,
had been designated by President
Eisenhower to serve an interim
appointment of approximately 18
months.
The Board of Foreign Scholar
ships was established by Public
Law 584 of the 10th Congress
(the Fulbright Act) specifying
that the President of the United
States citizens, prominent in pub
lie and private educational institu-
tons qualified to participate in
the program, and to supervise the
exchange program authorized by
the Fulbright Act.
Under the exchange program,
some $4,000 persons lave received
grants enabling them to undertake
serious educational activities with

ing requirements and other meas
ures to stimulate state and local
effort" which would allow states
sufficient time to increase their
own spending for education.
On this point Carr emphasized,
''The best evidence that local COM
munities cannot handle the COM
plete job of educational finance in
the future is that despite valiant
efforts they haven't done so over
the years. The American economy
is a rich and powerful instrument
which operates at higher Level
each year with evidence that it
will continue to grow steadily. But
changes in the economy have left
schools dependent upon an outmod-
ed tax structure"
The report said, with one half
of our public elementary and sec
ondary school revenue tied to local
property taxes, there is little hope
that local governments can double
their contributions to education"
DR.. Carr said, "In one phase of
government after another we have
recognized that federal funds are
needed. Better schools are neces-
sary for survival. The American
people own the schools, and they
must tell their representative
whether they wish to deal firmly

vice, it is alleged, adopted the
processes and designs, effecting a
saving of over $14 a shell, and
put the shell into mass production.
The petition claims that the
Government between 1912 and 1916
produced over IL million 4.2-inch
chemical mortar shells through
use of the engineering develop
ments of the Garssons.
The Garssons are asking for
judgments against the United
States for S18.5 million, with in
terest, and leaving the amounts in
four of their claims to be determ-
ined by the court.
Based upon the alleged savings
to the Government in the use of
the methods, processes and en-

Garssons, the petitioners are claim
ing SITS million.
The Garssons claim they de-
signed unique tall assembly for
an incendiary bomb. known as the
"fire bomb" which remedied the
defects in bomb the Government
was manufacturing, so that these
bombs could be safely dropped
from airplanes in clusters.
Their tail assembly, they allege,
made it possible for the "fire
bomb" to be used effectively in
the Far Eastern theater, partic-
ularly over Japan.
Based upon the number of these
bombs that were manufactured, the
Garssons claim that the reasonable
value of their invention is at least
81 million.

mined amounts for Government use

Caskill pointed out that districts
which have expended strong local
efforts in construction in recent
years could probably use larger
proportions of these funds to raise
salaries.
The new program also urged
10000 undergraduate scholarships
the first year, growing to $4,000
in four years, and 5000 graduate
fellowships which would be in
creased to $4,000 after three years.
This broad plan which could begin
quickly at all levels, would cost
about 40 million dollars, rising to
16O million annually.
The Commission also urged
Strengthening all aspects of the
various state departments of edu-
cation. "This will be one more as
surance that the Institutional pro-
gram can't be dictated to states
and communities from any higher
level" McCaskill said.
Continued support of the King
Jenkins Bill to provide tax equity
for teachers was also urged. "There
has always been an inequity in the
treatment of teachers income
taxes" McCaskill said. Teachers
are spending money to become bet
ter teachers. These educational
expenses should be deductible from
gross taxable income. Most teach
ers now cannot deduct these e.
penses and this is unjust. And
whereas improved educational
standards were a need before, they
now are necessity"
The report also requested con-
tinuation of federal assistance "fc1
such well-established and clearly
useful programs as vocational ed
ucation, library services, school
lunches, and aid to federally-af-
fected areas. No consideration
should be given to reduction OF
termination of these programs UNI
til it can be demonstrated that the
need can be met from other
resources.
In pointing up the need for in
creased financial support, McCas-
kill said, "The White House Con-
ference on Education and the Pres
ident's Committee on Education
Beyond the High School point out
that within Is years educational
expenditures must be increased at
least Is percent, just to stay where
we are now. The number of teach
ers with emergency certificates
and the number of children on half
day sessions are not going down,
We know that enrollments are go
ing to continue to grow"
Carr added, "This legislative
program is the minimum safe level
ROT federal action, provided that it
is accompanied by steady and nor
NAL growth in state ana local
school revenues"

Made Enviable Record
Born in Frankfort, KY, in 1908
Edwards is the youngest of 9 chill
dren. He received his early >educa-
ton in Louisville and Youngstown
Ohio. He later studied at LaSalle
Business College and the Interna-
tional Correspondence School OF
Chicago. He has taken FBI courses
in police detection. Lieutenant Ed
wards is also the first and only
Negro graduate of the Southern
Police Institute of the University
of Louisville. The Institute is q
graduate school for police officers
of commanding rank.
Lieutenant Edwards joined the
Louisville Police Department Nov
1, 1884. After serving two years
as patrolman, he was promoted
to the rank of detective. In the
examination for police sergeant ir
1943, Edwards was number / or
the eligible list with a rating OF
1928.
Handsome, neatly groomed at al
times, soft spoken and unusually
gentle in demeanor, Edwards woulc
hardly be recognized as an officer
of the law when see in "street
clothes" However, police records
show that two medals for expert
craftsmanship, mastery of the art
of self-defense, plus numerous cita'
tons from the police department
for his detection of master crimi.
nails, leading to ultimate convic.
lions, are proof of the lieutenant's
efficiency.
Edwards has figured in solving
many notorious crimes in and out
of Kentucky.
In 1949, when the "city fathers
felt it expedient to promote a mem.
Der of the Negro race to the posi-
ion of Lieutenant in the Police De.
partment, Edwards took the ex.
animation for the job. He finished
'irst on the eligible list with a rat
ing of 85.907. His elevation from
Sergeant to Police Lieutenant was
,ne of the most significant hap.
penings of that era.
Lieutenant Edwards most recent
honor was request by the metro
oolitan police department of Wash.

one of 80 hand-picked police off
GERS from over the nation to serve
at the Inauguration of President

The lieutenant and his wife, Rose
Ella, will sail from New York City
for Monrovia, capitol city of the
republic, February 1st, next.
Edwards is veteran of % years
service with the local police force.
He has served in both the Second
District and the detective bureau.
His present assignment is as chief
of the Special Services Bureau
which was organized primarily for
the purpose of tracking down hard
to-find persons named in warrants
and summonses.
Edwards, who resides at 1923
