Last week we Witnessed the
Democratic National Convention
from Los Angeles, California.
1t was very interesting to watch.
There was no mistaking who most
of the delegates were supporting.
The victorious John Kennedy
is a young man but he has chance
to put a great platform over. If
he is elected he will be the sec
ond youngest man to ever become
the President of the United States
of America.
1t has been a long time since
we had a Presidential candidate
speak so boldly on civil rights.
Elks all over the nation should
listen closely to both Democrat
ic and Republican platforms. The
men chosen to run should be
pledged to uphold these plat
forms.
The way things have been 60
ing in the last eight years proves
that we need some drastic chan
ges. We must -evaluate our
actions and take appropriate
steps to regain the respect we
have been accustomed to receiv-
ing from all other nations in the
world.
We must work together to pro-
tect our inheritance as free peo-
pie. We must take more inter-
est in political matters and vote
in every election.
Our monthly services were
held at the New Salem Baptist
Church located at 18th Street and
Lincoln on July 18th. Letus keep
these services growing and re-
member to work toward the bro
therhood of man together under
the Fatherhood of God.
Don't forget to attend the an
nual Beauty and Talent Contest
on Friday, July % at the Elks
Lodge. Come out and support
our scholarship fund and give
the young girls encouragement.

Justice Marks Time

Attorney General Rogers and Chief
Justice Warren used justif1ably strong
language in deploring the failure of
Congress so far to provide more judges
for the overworked Federal courts. Mr..
Rogers told the Judicial Conference that
the continued delay in authorizing more
judges-including two additional judges
for the Districts Juvenile Courts a
"Senseless kind of performance" The
Chief Justice expressed doubt that the
courts ever will be given enough judges
to meet our needs"
There have been political overtones
to congressional consideration of re-
peated administration requests for more
judges. The conference was reminded
that the number of men on the Federal
bench has remained virtually stationary
for the past seven years, despite a steady
increase in docket loads in nearly all of
the courts. The situation in the New
York Federal courts is particularly
critical. Recognizing the political as
poets of the problem, President Eisen-
hover has promised to divide the new
judgeships equally between the two
parties Mr.. Rogers told the conference
that this policy will apply also to the
new extra judges sought for the over
loaded Juvenile Court here. Moreover,
the administration has offered to defer
all appointments until after the presi-
Dental election
That promise ought to remove the
judgeships from the political arena
but still the legislation to create at least
As additional Federal judgeships and two
additional Juvenile Court judges here
languishes in committees. And while
Congress drags its feet, justice in many
courts marks time or barely creeps

Hope for BoffIed Drivers

Drivers who have become enSnarled
in one of those superduper cloverleaf
intersections to be found on the latest
expressways will appreciate the impor-
tance of a plan being studied by high
way engineers. The plan, described at
the recent National Highway Users Con-
ference here, is to give highways dis
tinctive colors, so that all a driver has
to do to keep on the right route is to
follow the color wherever it leads. This
may take him up or down and around
ramps and under or over grade separa-
tions, but, unless he is color blind, he
will come out where he wants to go,
every time.
DR.. w. J. Sweeney, an executive of
a research organization, told the high
way conference that the technique of
coloring the surface of roads is being
studied with encouraging results. eve
envision interlocking highway arteries
and cloverleaves," he said, "that are
paved in various colors to define correct
use. For example, motorists may be
advised to follow the green pavement
to Kansas City or the pale yellow one to
Houston. And colors might be used to
indicate speed zones-red for STOP
blue for Is miles an hour, ETC."
The colorful road idea seems like a
good one. Might we suggest that the
main highways into the Nations Capital
be colored red, white and blue2

SEATO Facing Its Test

The dramatic events of the past
month, centering around collapse of
the summit conference in Paris, have
given vastly greater timelineSs and
significance to the meeting of the
Foreign Ministers Council of the South
east Asia Treaty Organization opening
here today. For the area of first concern
to this SiX-year -old alliance is one that
feels itself under direct and increasing
threat from perhaps the most aggressive
partner of the Communist axis, namely,
Red China.
PersiStently, during the past year,
Peiping has been probing southwark
establishing complete and ruthless
control over Tibet, violating Indian
frontiers, pressuring the small buffer
states of the Himalayan region, and
making clear that it is embarked on a
policy Of encroachment. II there were
earlier hopes that a relaxing of tensions
between the Soviet Union and the
Western Big Three might have served
to lessen Communist China'S aggressive
behavior in the Far East, these hopes
have hardly survived the events in Paris.
1t may well be, however, that the
summit collapse and its portent of
greater Communist aggreSSiveness will
give new strength of purpose to SEATO
itself and a more respected standing
among its nom Communist Asian neigh
borS. Military officials of the alliance,
meeting here last week, heard Secretary
of Defense Gates assure that the United
States is ready and able to carry out
its defense commitments In the area,
and reports on recent defense exercises
indicate steady improvement of the
military structure. In addition, there
has been increasing acceptance, by
such nonmember countries as India and
Burma, of SEATO as a vehicle for nom
military programs of value to the region.
This weeks meeting is the first
ministerial one to be held outside the
Southeast Asian area itself. 1t is fitting,
although it was not so planned, that it
comes at time of greatest potential
threat and, in that circumstance, that
it provides an opportunity for reas-
surance that the alliance is possessed
of a fully shared determination and
capability

MoIinovsky's Order

Marshal Malinovsky now has re-
peated in somewhat more specific form
Mr.. KhruShchev'S threat to destroy any
base from which reconnaissance plane
may take of for a fight over Russia.
The Soviet Defense Minister says he
has given orders to this effect to his
rocket forces, and we must assume that
this is the fact
AS a practical matter it may not
have much new significance. At any
rate, President Eisenhower had pre-
viouSly announced that the overfiights
had been stopped, and it certainly is
at least doubtful that any allied coun-
try, in view of the furor over the May
/ U-2 incident, would permit us to use
its bases for renewal Of such flights.
This means, of course, that the
Russians probably have achieved their
real objective-to deny us access to
the bases which we have used to guard
ourselves and the. free world against
surprise attack. The intelligence loss is
very severe one, since overfiights are
the best means of checking on Soviet
military preparations and, without them,
the Russians can expect to enjoy a
considerable period in which to further
their secret preparations. This should
end with the advent of reconnaissance
satellites, but that may be two or three
years in the future.
Meanwhile, the Malinovsky order
appears to increase the risk that a war
may start by mistake. We have pub
ncly stated that we will honor our
treaty obligations to any ally whose
territory is attacked by the Russians.
Presumably we will live up to this COM
n1itment. So it is to be hoped that
Marshal Malinovsky's rocket men will
not fall into the error of irresponsible
or panicky button-pushing. Once the
rockets are on their way they cannot
be recalled.

They include large group of singers and

The demand for us to familiarize our

Setting the Pace

The House District Committee has
set good pace for the proposed legis-
1ation to provide a safe and adequate
sewage disposal system for the Chantilly
airport and the satellite communities
which will develop around it. A Senate
District subcommittee also has indorsed
the plan. We hope the House and the
Senate promptly will complete the job
Of authorizing and appropriating funds
for the project, which will safeguard the
Metropolitan Area water supply from
pollution.
While the bills approved by the
House committee and the Senate sub
committee call for an interceptor sewer
along the Potomac to carry sewage from
the airport and adjacent areas" to the
District sewer system, Chairman Anne
wilkins of the Fairfax County Board of
Supervisors has asked Congress to make
the authorization more explicit with
respect to the impact areas. In letter
to Chairman Bible of the Senate District
Committee she pointed out that some
sections of Fairfax County where the
impact of the airport is expected to be
greatest may have difficulty in tying
into the interceptor unless the legisla-
ton makes definite provision for such
connections.
District officials planning the system
are aware of these problems and are
known to be trying to work them out
within the $28-million appropriation
recommended by the Budget Bureau for
the undertaking. Certainly the inter-
ceptor will not properly protect the
Potomac from the threat of sewage con-
tamination above the Districts water
intake unless full provision is made to
care for all the sewage created by the
airport and the communities which it
will spawn.

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

The laughter of people
dear to us is always beautiful.
often the laughs of others
seem stupid, raucous, dis
traught.
One will have the laugh of
an animal; he almost brays.
A second reminds one Of q
waterfowl quarreling over q
piece of fish.
A third is a siren, At only
for treason, stratagem and
spoils.
"It is for laughs" the
phrase has it.
The truth is, a laugh may
show anything, from anger
to mirth, the accent on the
latter, perhaps.
Laughter is part of the
human psyche.
1t comes unbidden, to
some; after much thought, to
others.
1t may mean little, as in
small babies even before they
can be said to think. But
they smile. What they are
smiling at is something else.
A laugh is good for what
ails you, somebody says.
1t depends upon what ailS
you. Needless functioning of
the muscles of visibility mean
no more than the smile of
pain, as in certain diseases.
Practicing laughter has
been advocated by stern
physical culturists. as they
used to be called.
1t seems rather an odd
thing to do, If you happen to
be of the human type that
goes in for sincerity on a big
scale.
If not, you may think
smiling on command should
be able to do something for
lines and wrinkles. and per-
haps 1t can.
Even some of the animals
smile. The dog, almost any
type, can pull back the cor
ners Of the mouth In what
may seem a smile to q cam
era. It win not fool any dog
lover.
The set faces of the brute
creatures, as they are often
called, differ greatly from the
more mobile lineaments of
most human beings. There
are many, Of course, who re-
fuse to smile except now and
then. Such persons always
remind some watchers of the
animals, now one four-legged
one. now another.
Evening star., 1960-05-31

Laughter is akin to wit,
and wit is often cruel. The
desire to joke is o part Of
our heritage. Poking fun at
ourselves, even in secret,
leads us to poke fun at 9TH
ers.
SlaAstick jokes are as old
as the hills, and perhaps
older. When Moses came
down from the mount. If he
stumbled, somebody in the
crowd must have laughed.
Just what is the connec-
ton between laughter and
physical pain is hard to put
the finger on, but that it ex-
lists. there can be no doubt.
The serious person will al
ways think twice before
committing himself to laugh
ter.
If this seems a too-serious
way to take fun, he will be
able to excuse himself by
thinking back over the times
he smiled or laughed when
he knew later that he should
not have.
For most people, laughter
goes with fun, it accompanies
it as a child goes hand in
hand with its mother.
1t is not the moving finger
that writes, here, but the
moving tongue that spins a
witty phrase at which others
laugh.
This is a standard and
continuing attitude toward
life for some. They are al
ways looking for the joke. In
this they do not aim to be
mean but often are. It Is too
bad.
Proper laughter does some
thing for us.
1t shakes up the dia-
phragm, for one thing, and
we see by the medical jour-
mails that the human dia-
phragm is not just something
there out Of sight but a real,
live part of us.
You can have q hernia of
the diaphragm, did you know
that? We hope you never
have one, but If you do, you
can't go to sleep until five
hours or more after you have
eaten.
We knew one man with
this type of ailment who had
to sit up in his chair all
night. He seemed as lively as
a cricket, and not at all
sleepy. as you might think.
He could laugh ct 1t.

ever, that a majority of the
American people will see it
their way. The American
people are not likely to relish
a suggestion. raised by Sen
ator Kennedy, that President
Eisenhower might have voiced
his regrets to Premier Khru-
shchev over the U-2 flights
to Khrushchev, who de-
manded an apology from the
President and the punish
ment of those involved in
sending the planes over Rus
sia. Nor will the charge by
Senator Symington that the
President has subjected the
United States to humiliation
sit well. They do not believe
the national honor has been
downgraded by the Presi-
dents efforts to see that no
Pearl Harbor" sneak attack
Is ever made by the Com
munists on this country. Mr..
Stevenson's attacks on the
President and his handling
Of the U-2 incident ran al
most on all fours with those
Of the Russian Premier.
Seeks to Scare Americans
Mr.. KhruShchev has un-
dertaken to scare the Ameri-
can people into electing a
President who will be salts
factory to him-and fatty
said that it will not be Mr.,
Nixon. The American people
have not relished attempts
by foreign dignitaries to
mingle in their domestic poll
itics-especially in the elec-
ton of a President. It is
noticeable that in one of his
recent addresses Mr.. Khru-
Shchev has stolen a page
from the Democratic note
book-the Democratic charge
SO often repeated that Presi-
dent Eisenhower puts golf
ahead of his conduct of the
business of the country.
When the whole picture
comes into full view, what
will be the political effect on
the coming nominations and
the election in November?
1t is possible that Lyndon
johnson has sensed the SEN
timent of the American peo-
pie far better than his OPP
ponentS for the Democratic
nomination. Certainly, his
sound view of the aims of
Mr.. Khrushchev is finding
support in many quarters.
And like Senator johnson,
Americans do not like to see
their President kicked around
and insulted by any for
eign ruler. A Democrat who
seems to be playing Mr..
Khrushchev'S game, by TAX
ing much the same position
as the Russian, who seems to
be willing to be his kind of
American President, runs the
risk of being labeled "Khru-
shchev's boy" in the coming
campaign.
The politics Of the situa-
ton, with Mr.. Khrushchev
shooting at him, should not
harm Mr.. Nixon, who has
been anathema to the Com
munists and to their fellow
travellers for a long time
since the days when. he in
sisted on producing the facts
on which Alger Hiss was
convicted Further. he stood
up to Mr.. Khrushchev dur
ing his visit to Russia last
year in a manner which
gained the Russian no glory.
1t merely infuriated Mr..
Khrushchev. Nor should the
politics of the situation harm
Senator Johnson's aspira-
tions for the Democratic
nomination. On the con-
trary, he already is widely
