The National Council for the

in the facilities themselves will

The council, while finding
substantial progress in the col

There are two British publications
that I read as often as I can find
the time, Encounter, a monthly,
and the The Times Literary Sup
plement." The current issue of
Encounter is filled with thought
full, amusing or informative pieces.
One of the wittiest is by Colin
Wilson, the young author Of THE
Outsider" The title of the piece
is rather drab, THE Writer and
Publicity-A Reply to Critics"
But don't let it fool you. 1t gives
little clue to Wilson's humor as
he takes a detached look at him
self, those who envy his success
and his contemporaries among "the
angry young men,"
You get some hint of the quality
Of the humor when he writes about
a review of THE Entertainer
which he had found boring, as did
some of the other critics. Despite
his sentiments it starred Lawrence
Olivier and went on to become a
hit.
Wilson observed:
Finally, it was transferred to
the West End, and the spectacle
of Olivier dressed as a fourth-rate
comedian continued to draw large
audiences, rather as If one of those
dubious Berlin nightclubs adver-
tised Sir Winston Churchill wrest-
ling in mud with Lady Aston"
The same issue of Encounter
carries an Informative piece from
Moscow by Henry Brandon, Wash
ington correspondent Of The Lon
don Sunday Times. Brandon is one
of the wisest British correspond
ents.
He has this to say about the
youth of Moscow University:
They are waiting, they are
skeptical, they are not revolution
aries. They have no ideas Of gran
deur of world revolution. They
want to settle down to a normal
family life, and they are waiting
to see whether Mr.. Khrushchev
can give it to them"
This news from Russia could be
more important than the launch
ing of the Sputniks.

Dilemma Of The Negro Writer
BY SAMUEL p. PERRY, JR.

Which breathes first-"Negro" the writer?
Dressing his pen in noseless rhymes,
Does he float with whiplash Of times?
Does he spark the conscience-igniter?
Will his tongue border itself to tell
Delighted tea-and-crumpet cast
What they smile about his crumped past
And what statistics steer he can sell?
When renovated spine is leading,
With sweetened blare of contented strife,
The parade Of boolxish drum
Will he stanch his vinegar bleeding?
