Youngsters take to school like
ducks to water; the older children
are less anxious to go, while the
college-aged students are most hes
itant as the years continue.
7 This is similar to something
that I heard on the radio, which
+ think ISIS true. Remember the
previous first days of school? All
Of the younger children were up
and about before daybreak MAX
ing ready for school, and the jun
ior high and high school students
waited until the very last minutes

college students waited for the sec
|ond week to enroll and sometimes
the second semester! Could it be
that as the student grows older the
Requirements get so much tougher
THAT the studens drop out because
they can't take it? | hardly think
so! It is said that the Negro brain
lis Just lazy, and that he would
much rather use his hands than
his head. This seems true too, be-
cause so many of our Negro stu
dents quit school at an early age
Ito seek employment without any
type of training or to get married,
and other things of this sort. Some
Of these things should become Sec
ondary, and we should seek furth-
er education first. A very good
reason behind this is the fact that
American life is becoming more
demanding every day. II. takes

Gus that this life is also becoming
more of a competition cycle, and
a top priority system is automat-

Congo as a pro-American agent

The Communist Party news
paper, in a bitter attack on

charged the United States was
the master mind behind what
it called aggression in the
young African republic.
The United States is the
main inspirer and organizer of
the colonial policy of the North
Atlantic bloc, including the
present imperialiStic aggression
in the Congo" the newspaper
said.
The authority of the United

Georgia Judges
Injunction Order
BuIks Democrats

ATLANTA. Aug. 3 (AP).-
The Georgia Democratic Ex-
ecutive Committee meeting here
Friday has been temporarily
enjoined from taking any ac-
ton toward holding a refer
endum on pledged or unpledged
presidential electors.
The injunction was issued by
Judge Luther Alyerson of Full
ton Superior Court on a petit
ton by an Atlanta lawyer,
Henry M. Henderson. Judge Al
verson set hearing Friday on
whether to make the injunction
permanent.
Mr.. Henderson. describing
himself as a member of the
Democratic Party for 25 years,
charged that the proposed
referendum would deny him
equal protection of the laws in
violation of the Federal and
State constitutions.
He said he brought the &C
ton for himself and other
Democrats who want to vote
in the November general elec-
ton for electors ordained to
discharge their trust for the
Democratic Party"
He declared in his petition,
filed yesterday, that there
should be no question about
whether the Democratic elec-
tors should cast their votes in
the electoral college for the
party's nominees.

Mr.. Benson said he Is con-
vinced his policies have been
economically right and fair.
Obviously these are not perfect
programs. since they were made
by people. but I know Of no
better solutions"
Mr.. Benson said he is en-
couraged that the six-nation
European Common Market will
work toward the freeing Of
trade in farm products.
He said, however, that farm
ers and the United States Gov
ernment are seriously alarmed
at the prospect of programs
which could maintain higher
prices In some Common Market
countries and raise them sharp
ly in others.
He warned that the United
States could not support a pol

Secret Paris Talks Stir
Speculation on Alliance

Others elected to ignore the
remark and stressed another
statement by the spokesman
that the two agreed to put new
life into the Atlantic Alliance.
Some papers speculated that
Mr.. Adenauer was not happy
about a reported proposal by
Gen de Gaulle to tighten Eu-
ropean political integration
under French leadership.
The Deutsche Zeitung Of Co.
logne, another Adenauer backer,
said the French proposed a
European political unit includ-
ing only the six economic COM
munity members and that Mr..
Adenauer had resisted eXclu-
sion of Britain. The Deutsche
Zeitung said this had made the
French impatient with Mr..
Adenauer. That paper. along
with several others, suggested
it was Mr.. Adenauer's concern
about French thinking that
prompted him to invite British
Prime Minister Macmillan here
next week for more secret
talks.
Tighter Bonds Seen
Die Welt, the influential
Hamburg paper. said Mr.. Aden-
auer was optimistic the talks
with Gen. De Gaulle and the
forthcoming conversations with
Mr.. Macmillan would lead to
"a tighter form of European
cooperation on foreign policy"
Sir Christopher Steel, the
British Ambassador, called on
Mr.. Adenauer today to draw up
plans for the Macmillan talks.

nor the West German govern
ment would go into detail.

won't talk politics so long as
he is at the United Nations.
Mr.. Mccormack said yester-
day there is a conflict of in

position as an active candidate
and his job as Ambassador.
Without any reflection on him,
he should not continue as our
Ambassador" the Massachu-

Mr.. Lodge replied he would
not resign until after the U. N.

He said he couldn't predict
when this would be. 1T in

to Mr.. McCormack's criticism,
1T would be inappropriate for

Campaign for
Farm Policies

campaign for my policies as
long as I have breath"
Mr.. Benson was asked at a
news conference if he agreed
with Senator Kennedy, the
Democratic presidential nomi-
nee, that Vice President Nixon,
the Republican nominee. does
not believe in Mr.. Benson's
farm policies.
Mr.. Benson replied that he
is sure Mr.. Nixon is looking for
farm policy improvement. as
he is.
Il believe solutions must be
based on sound economic pol
icies," Mr.. Benson said. For
too long we have sought po-
litical answers for economic
problems"
LaudS Platform
A reporter said 1t was con-
fusing as to how Mr.. Benson
could campaign in view of the
fact Mr.. Nixon had called for
new leadership and new pro-
grams in farm policy and had
in effect renounced Mr.. Ben
sons programs.
The Secretary described the
Republican farm platform "as
broad and forward looking"
and said it did not seem in con-
f1ict with his own policies.
No doubt, he said, new fea-
lures are being proposed, and
I'VE will invite any that are

Korean students to guard their

deadly colonialism of inter-

He sent the message to uni

successfully to see and talk to
him when he visited Seoul, the
capital of Korea, in June.
The President told the youths
that Communists seek to domi-

BONN, Germany, Aug. 3
(AP) THE West German
press broke out today with a
rash Of inside stories about
what went on at the secret
Paris talks last week end be-
tween Chancellor Konrad Ade-
nauer and President Charles
de Gaulle.
A tight secrecy lid was placed
on the talks by German and
French authorities.
A West German government
spokesman said yesterday de-
tails of the talks could not be
disclosed. He said that Mr..
Adenauer and Gen. de Gaulle
had the impression that with
out hate but at an appropriate
time a reform of the Atlantic
organization would serve a USE
full purpose"
Conference Believed Set
Looked at coldly, this state
ment could have either broad
significance or none at all. The
Cologne Anzeiger, a paper
which generally backs Mr..
Adensuer, saw plenty of sig
nif1cance.
1t reported in a front-page
article that Mr.. Adenauer and
Gen. de Gaulle had agreed to
call a constitutional conference
in Paris during the fall at
which time the groundwork
would be laid for a European
parliament.
The paper said Britain and
other countries would be invited
to attend, along with the six
nations of the European Eco
nomic Community France,
West Germany, Italy, Holland,
Belgium and Luxembourg.
A number of newspapers gave
prominent play to the state
ment about reforming the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization.
