Vaccination Advised
Against Influenza

Local occurrences of influenza
in Mississippi will probably reach
Epidemic proportions in the months
ahead, according to prediction
from the State Board of Health.
DIR. Durward Blakey, state direc-
tor of the Preventable Disease Con-
troll, says that while a recurrence
of the general epidemic levels of
Asian flu in 1857 is not expected,
both this strain of Type A as we'll
as Type B influenza virus are wide
ly seeded in the states population.
To date, only single cases of Type
A influenza have been identified
in Mississippi.
However, there has been school
wide occurrence of Type B, involv-
ing about 800 children. Isolated
cases of this milder type have also
been identified in adults.
DR.. Blakey says that the present
epidemic potential rests with Type
B, and he predicts that it's great
est force will be against children
of the elementary school age.
AS to protection against this
winter-time illness, DR.. Blakey rec
ommends vaccination.
"The influenza vaccine current
ly on the market is potent and re-
liable and gives protection against
all strains of influence presently
occurring. In addition, controlled
studies indicate vaccination de-
creases the incidence of all res
piratory infections by as much
as IS per cent" states the public
health official.
Immunization is strongly recon-
mended for certain population seq
ments that are serious influenza
risks.
The high risk groups include
individuals with any heart and lung
condition, the aged with chronic
conditions and expectant mothers.
Pregnancy" states DR.. Blakey,
"lends a predispositiOn to severe
influential attacks" Accordingly,
he urged all expectant mothers TO
consult their physicians about TAX
ing the vaccine.
DR.. Blakey also advises public
service and essential service groups
in business and industry, interested
in keeping the absentee rate as
low as possible, to consider the
value of influenza immunization.
Influenza vaccine is available
through private physicians; but it
is not offered in health department
clinics, states DR.. Blakey.
The vaccine is given in two doses,
one month apart. Protection is
quickly conferred but is not long
lasting" reports the health offic-
ial.
Re-vaccination by single boost
er dose every six months is recon-
mended for the special health risk
groups, particularly the aged with
chronic conditions, DR.. Blakey
points out.

Friendly Relations With White People
Still The Mississippi Negro
Greatest Asset

Since the decision of the United States Supreme
Court in the school and in other outawng ra
cia segregation by law the of Negroes in Mis-
sisspp elated the prospects of brighter future
for themselves and their children being more and
attracted by the voices of the would be leaders
of the in the state who look with upon those
who council moderation in these tense and troubled
times in matters of racereations and who ridcue and
decry those who point to the need for continued friendly
relations between the White and Negro citizens of the
state.
In regard to the Supreme Court decision in the
school segregation cases. and in any other case in the
past and in the future these absolutely certain facts
that every intelligent Negro in Mississippi should know
and understand and remember for himself without any
aid from the crop of loud talking and beicose Ne
leaders strutting the stage where ever
given the opportunity in the state and who getting
their first notices in the national press fact which is
driving them to greater extremes and and more
immature statements and predictions in regard to the
immediate future of the Negro in the state The num-
Der one fact is that matter what kind of decision
the u s. Supreme Court makes government in the Unit
ed States starts at the local level the law Is enforced by
the elected officials at the local level and that no de-
cslon by any court is stronger than the public opinion
for or against it, at the local level The number two
fact is that matter what decision the u S. Supreme
Court makes it has power to send any army to Mis-
ssslppl or any where else to enforce it's decision.
Every intelligent Negro citizen in the state without
the aid of the crop of Negro leaders can also see
for himself where lies the political and economic strength
IN his community and also and understand the
total dependence of the of Negroes in the state
Judged in the light of history the greatest Negro
leaders yet to upon the American the late
Booker I. Washington, who is growing in world
statue with each passing 1t in of his
famous speeches made at Atlanta in 1895, when the
times in matters of relations not unlike the
present, that Booker T. Washington warned the race
against those who underestimate the Importance of cul
tvatng friendly relations with the Southern white man.
The time has come, in the light of recent develop
ments affecting relations in Mississippi for every
Negro preacher and teacher and for Negro citizens of
responsibility in all walks of life everywhere in Mis-
ssslppl who feel true of responsibility for the
welfare of the Negro in the state to challenge
the rdicule and criticism of the would be leaders
OF the race in the state by procamng and at every
opportunity that friendly relations with the white peo
PIE is still the greatest asset of the Mississippi Negro

1--WE MUST KNOW THE RIGHT
ROAD OR BE LOST"
For more than seventy years
born poem-writer
| would love to write for some
large magazine
1t would keep me at work getting
cut
The news my people should hear,
so they won't lose.
The Lord has written in the days
of old
Now He has Perkins under the
same control
Writing for the paper, its for both
young and old
And it is good for saving our
souls.
The Heaven I sing about to get
up there
1t is all happiness with everybody
up right -.
No way to enter Gods Heaven II
you haven't been born again
Jesus is the keeper of Heavens
door and you can't get in with
spot of sin.
Too many people are trying to pay
their way to Heaven
Jesus is the door keeper of Heaven,
and money is not the gate fee
You have got to obey Gods Holy
Word
And your soul it must be free.
Brains won't get anyone in Heaven
It is just like the Holy Bible said
in the days of old
We must be born again of the
spirit of God
And the new birth will answer
the call.
You can't raise cotton and corn IN
the same field
You have got to separate your
crops
You can't get to Heaven on the
hypocrite's talk
They are going to hell before they
stop.
There are too many lovers of
money in Gods House
And the love of money is not right
They keep Gods people in fuss
all the time
With the devil in fuss and wants
to fight.
Gods people will live here right
In His Fathers House and every
where
The Holy Bible says for US to
separate
So do you believe Gods Word, |
know it's fair
We have got to obey Gods Holy
Word
And separate from the world if
we want to be saved
Why follow the world and won't
separate
Gods people are no more slaves.
Stop filling Gods House with a
lot of brains
God is calling for the pure in heart
If we won't obey the will Of our
Lord
To hell we must depart.

paratroopers could do to check the
bands of Bahutus.
The Bahutus roamed the hills,
oetting fire to Watusi huts, slash
ing their cattle, chopping down ba-
mana trees and coffee plants and
then disappearing into the forests.
Many elderly persons have been
left in the huts to burn.
Hundreds of huts' and villages
have been burned and many acres
of plantations damaged. About 600
Africans have been arrested on
charges of arson in the last three
days.
Fatalities total more than 200. No
major clashes have been reported
since troops interviewed three days
ago, but authorities feared the
proud Watusis would go on the
warpath in revenge the moment
troops were withdrawn.
Watusis Seek independence
Belgium governs the United Ma
tions trust territory through the
kings and chiefs of the Watusis,
who have dominated the Bahutus
for centuries. Belgian influence has
gradually ended slavery.
In the twin trust territories of
Ruanda- Urundi about 100000 Of
the 100000 population are Bahu-
tus.
The same fires of nationalism
and independence that have stirred
riots at Leopoldville and Stanley
vile in the neighboring Belgian
Congo are back Of the tribal trou-
bles in Ruanda.
Some Watusis, calling themselves
Ruanda National Union, have been
holding political rallies and de-
handing immediate independence.
