LiffIe Brown Girl
BY A. V. Hall

By A. v. Hall
I saw you climbing the school house stair,
Little brown girl with crinltly locks;
And you gave no thought to the why or where
OF shrieling mob hurting curses and rocks.
You seemed not to need
A helping hand
You seemed not to heed
The New Orleans brand
OF Americas Freedom
With justice afar.
I saw you climbing the school house stair.
You seemed symbolic Of Race:
Struggling, climbing toward cleaner air.
Wings on each heel and upturned face
All sacred hopes
OF people awakened,
All faith in prayer
OF people mistaken.
Climb little brown girl!
Climb to your star!

The key issue, of course, is the
filibuster, although it is not the
only rule that liberal Democrats
have felt needed changing.
It has always seemed ironic that
those very lawmakers who would
deny racial minorities the right to
vote, to proper schooling and to
unsegregated seating in lunch
rooms are always loudest in pro-
claiming any curb on the filibuster
as an infringement" on their free
dom of action. They sometimes
even talk of themselves as a per-
secuted minority.
Be that as 1t may, the battle to
limit debate, to say 100 hours, in
wolves not only civil rights legisla-
tion-but the entire social welfare
program Of which Sen. Kennedy
spoke in the campaign.
So far as the Conservative Coal
ition is concerned there has al
ways been an understanding. If
the South backs the conservative
Republicans in opposing anti-wel-
fare legislation then the G.o.P.ers
would back the South in opposing
civil rights legislation.

argue that we must stand still in

The Alsop position is, of course,
nowhere near that. He simply

NEW YORK, Jan. 20 (AP)-
The captain of the cruise liner
Santa Rosa has been found
negligent in the collision with
the tanker Valchem last year.
Four tanker crewmen died.
Francis x. J. Coughlin, Coast
Guard hearing examiner, yes
terday ordered a one-year sus-
pension of the license of Capt.
Frank S. Siwik, saying he was
satisfied that Capt. Siwik was
negligent.
The examiner held that Capt.
Siwik was navigating the
Grace liner "at an immoderate
speed under conditions of fog
and restricted visibility"
He also ruled that the Santa
RoSa'S captain neglected to
stop her engines upon the
hearing of a fog signal of a
vessel forward of the BEAM"
Mr.. Coughlin said his find-
ing did not attempt to "fix
civil liability on the SIS Santa
Rosa or to exonerate the SIS
Santa Rosa" in the collision
of New Jersey last March 26.

one time served as a consultant

Rule AsSaiIed
The Justice Department, in
appealing to the Supreme
Court, said the Claims Court
decision has formulated a too
limited conflict of interest rule

This limited rule, the appeal
said. will continue indefinitely,
unless overturned, to lessen for
Federal officials the uncom-

The Court of Claims rulings,
the appeal said, diminish the
protection of single-interested-

private business, and they bite
deep into an historical policy
essential to the healthy opera

Recipes With A History

Recipes With A History -
How many of you remember
hearing the pounding and beat
ing of biscuits for breakfast?
Long ago the old colored cook
would sit on a low stool with
a heavy wooden mallet in her
hand and a clean white turban
or handchief wrapped round
her head, and a red checked
apron over her large white
one.
She would steadily beat the
dough on a marble slab of "a
wooden bread board stopping
many times to fold the dough
over and over. 1t took about
a half hour, then the biscuits
were as light as a loaf of
bread, ready for the oven. The
cook would break off small
pieces and roll and roll, bet
ween her hands, place in a
large pan and bake to a golden
brown, in very hot oven.
This is the recipe my grand
mother used, many years ago:
Beaten Biscuits
Take 2 cups flour, 1-3 cup
shortening, l teaspoon salt,
and milk. please notice no
baking powder or soda, is
used). Sift salt with the flour,
cut shortening in thoroughly,
add just enough milk to make
a stiff dough. Turn on Toured
board or marble slab and beat
with a wooden mallet, or the
rolling pin will answer the pur-
pose, beat until the dough is
bliStered, break off small pieces
and roll out, or cut with a two
inch cutter. Prick the bis
cults four times with a silver
fork. Place in pan and cook
in about a $50 oven. Until
golden brown.

T THE BEGINNING of this NEW YEAR, the MANAGEMENT. Di-
G rectors and Officers of FOUNTAINS feel that it is fitting
and proper that we express our gratitude to the people of Green
wood and surrounding territory for the response to our effort to
bring back to our area a quality family department store worthy
OF your patronage and respect.
As a direct result of your increased patronage we have made
many improvements in the last six months and have many more

we are constantly increasing and charging our stocks so that today

entire family offered in Greenwood in many years.
The one motivating factor in our entire organization is to have
at your disposal a fine store; a quality store; a store you can trust;
a store that appreciates your friendship, and a store Of which you,
our customers, will be proud.
1t is our firm belief that FOUNTAINS, to better serve our GUS
toners, should remain open six days a week throughout the year.
Our employees have agreed to. this plan IS they will continue to
have sufficient time off to offset the increased shopping hours.
Consequently Fountains will remain open six days a week.
