A graphic and satisfying an
swcr to this question was gwen
TO the Presidents Committee on
Government Contracts at its Sep
tember meeting here by DR.. Je-
rome II. Holland, President OF
Delaware State College. The cx-
Cornell All American football
player had been invited by the
Committee TO describe plant and
community impact of initial Ne
gro hiring by the Dover, Della
ware, plant of the International
Latcx Corporation.
From my observations and re-
ports" DR.. Holland told the Com
mittec, community reaction to
the new policy seems to be good.
Teachers at the college have told
me that while they were shop
ping in the town, white citizens
have remarked to them about
the change at Latex and what a
worthwhile move ii was.
Il have made a number OF
telephone calls to key persons in
the community who have stated
that they have heard nothing de-
rogatory of the change and, in
the main, have found most peo-
pie expressing a sense of pride
and satisfaction. They have
praised management for the pos
tive way in which ii has handled
and willingly supported the pro

bers several instances OF warm
receptions accorded the newly
hired Negroes by plant EN-
ployees.
"One of the first human Incl
dents that happened within the
plant concerned the first Negro
woman who was employed as a
secretary. Soon after her arrival
she received a fine letter from
another secretary welcoming her
to Latex and stating how pleased
she was to see the company hir-
ing all qualified citizens. To me,
this type of friendlinesS appear
ing in a newly integrated citua-
ton in southern Delaware was
worthy of note"
Less than a month before DR..
Holland gave the Presidents Com
mittec the benefit OF his observa'
tions on the Dover situation, the
Latex corporation had never EN-
ployed a single Negro, in any ca
pacity. During thaLmonth, how
ever, under the persuasive influ-
ence of the Committee, which is
charged by an Executive Order
of President Eisenhower with
monitoring the government con-
tracts clause requiring non-dis-
elimination in employment, the
company had completely reversed
its policy and employed Negroes
as secretaries, laboratory helpers
and technicians, cafeteria work
ers, machine operators and gen
eraI factory workers.

Richard Nixon, who is chairman
of the Government Contracts

Freeze Accounts
Today For Full
Disability Help

Don't wait, so may be too
late. If you are severely dis
abled, you should supply now
and freeze your account, said
Mr.. Edward F. Sullivan, man.
ager of the Dover, Delaware
social security district office.
Social security pays cash dis
ability benefits starting at age
so. However, according to Mr..
Sullivan the first thing you must
do to get those benefits at age
SO is to freeze your social Sc
curity account. Don't wait un-
til age SO warned Mr.. Sullivan,
as you may not be able to meet
the requirements at that time.
The disability freeze is i'm
portant; it's step toward mon
thly benefits later. 1t is valu-

able even if you recover from
your disability before age so
and never get those money ben
efits. When your social secur-
ity account is frozen you keep
the level of social security pro-
lection you had earned at the
time your disability began. You
keep this protection even though
you do not pay any social Sc
curity taxes while you are dis
abled. Without the freeze, you
could watch your hard-earned
social security protection melt
ing away. You would certainly
lose part of your protection and
perhaps you would lose all of
it.
Mr.. Sullivan pointed out that
right now you can freeze your
social security account at anv
point, even back to October l,
l94l, if you meet the require
ments. However, beginning with
July 1861, you will be able to
go back only 18 months. This
is why you should apply for
the freeze now. You may be
able to meet the requirements
now, but not be able to meet
them when you are age SO.
The requirements for the dis
ability freeze are: first, you
must have a medically deter
minable impairment, physical or
mental, which is so severe that
it prevents you from engaging
in any type of substantial, gain
full activity; secondly, the i'm
pairment must be expected to

Lewes had a big day on We'd

of granite on a concrete base,
bears the following inscription:

What we shall remember
about Miss Britt Is the way she
robbed us of a misconception
with which we have lived hap
PLY for many years.
The misconception in point
Is one we got from the late
Maxwell Anderson. It was at
the time Of his play, Joan of
Lorraine" which starred Ingrid
Bergman. She was a new kind
of star in Playwright Ander-
sons life. a girl Of appalling
health and vitality. This, ra-
ther than her acting, was the

ing about; NOSE wide-eyed

age Of Swedish forests filled
with running lovers. 1t seemed
so much more vivacious Of them
than those Of us who used to
take girls for dawdling walks
when one couldn't get a car.
1t gave the Swedes a kind
Of towering superiority in our
imagination as vigorous roman
tics who could go for a canter
without horses.
Then, the other day came
Miss Britt and we asked her II
she went for joys with her
beaus when she was a girl in
Sweden.
"For what?" she countered.
English being a relatively
recent language for Miss Britt,
we thought it was "jogs" that
snagged her understanding of
the question. We explained -
rather copiously - about Mr..
Anderson, Miss Bergman, and
that day when he gave us our
most delightful image Of life
in Sweden.
Miss Britt looked steadily
more uncomprehending, and
amused.
Il never heard Of such a
thing" she said, reducing the
Swedish woodlands to the same
emptiness all forests had before
Mr.. Anderson told us about
Ingrid and her rushing suitors.
AS FOR MISS BRITT: The
visitor, here in advance of her
newest picture, The Blue
Angel" due in September, is a
kind Of accidental movie star.
She was studying photogra-
ply, for a career behind a.
camera, in her native Stock
holm when Italian producer
Carlos Ponti walked through
the school. He looked at her, as
Italians are expected to look at
girls. and asked her if she would
like a screen test.
Miss Britt, in effect, walked
around to the other or front
side Of one of the schools
cameras and pretty soon she
was working for Producer Ponti
in WAR and Peace" Her part
in the film was negligible and
the cast numbered thousands
but apparently what arrested
Ponti that day in Stockholm
arrested others when they saw
her in the her first picture.
She started rising, like cream
in a milk bottle or a striking
platinum blond in a movie,
until she suddenly found her.
self a star. [
First, there was THE Young
Lions" another big picture, in
which she played a bad girl.
Then came "The Hunters" in
which she portrayed a young
Korean war aviator'S wife, try
ing to be good but apparently
unable to make it with those
lynx eyes.
Now she is in 1.-THE Blue

Of Marlene Dietrich who made
the picture years ago with Emil

girl again in spite of the fact
that she looks so good with
that smiling face, platinum
hair, and those blue feline eyes.
