Methodist
Conference
Mixes Mixing

DENVER, Colo.-By an over
whelming margin of two to
one, 1873 delegates to the Meth
odist General Conference here
have rejected any idea of a
"speedup" in migrating its
white and Negro jurisdiction.
The Rev. DR.. Harold C..
Case, president of Boston I'm.
and a former pastor in Glenco,
Ill, had proposed that the all
Negro (CentraD Jurisdiction
be abolished by 1868, but this
move was beaten down.
Methodist liberals were de-
feated by the hard-core South
ern bloc of delegates who wag-
ed war on all moves toward
having the Negro churches alb
sorbed by the five white juris-
dictions of the church. James
P. Brawley, president of Clark
College, asserted, "The church
should declare its intent to go
the whole way in abolishing
segregation and creating a
completely racially inclusive
fellowship.
The delegates also beat down
an attempt to put the issue be-
fore the church's ten million
members for a vote.

Graduation Set
At Piney Woods

PINEY WOODS, Miss. -
Commencement exercises will
be held May 80 at Piney
Woods school here. Graduating
students will demonstrate the
skills they have learned at the
50-year-old school during the
ceremonies in the Rock Gar
den amphitheater.
The school was founder by
Laurence G. Jones who has
convinced residents Of the
backwoods area he came to so
years ago there is a way of
life far better than the one
inherited by the persons he
was willing to serve.
Jones, a humble University
of Iowa graduate, came to the
BraXton, Miss, area with a
dream permitted an educa-
ton. Wealth in the commu-
nifty was measured by horses.
The owner of two was well-to-
do. The poor had one, or a
mule, a donkey or an OK.
But the new resident had a
desire to start a school for
those of his race who had the
least. Today, a college educa-
ton is the goal of the sons and
grandsons of the illiterate chill
dren he found near Braxton.
Graduates of the school have
entered the medical, teaching,
social and broadcasting profess
sions.
The schools modern dairy

facilities have replaced the era
of the milk COW rowing in open
fields and tractors have re-
placed oxen. From farming
and housekeeping to secretar-
ial studies and printing, stu
dents are trained with modern
equipment.
One of the first Negroes on
Ralph Edwards "This is your
Life" TV program, Jones was
formally recognized when a
124-unit public housing project
at North Gulfport, Miss, was
named in his honor.
The story of his dedication
and success has been told
many times and he has gained
national recognition.

year Frank still seems to be
somewhat of a mystery to
June. Even if this relation
ship is a casual one, she
should have a better under
standing of what they both
want out of it.
June needs to talk to some
one about this relationship
and she might open up to her
parents if they pressed her
less. Their pressure has put
her on. the defensive. She
feels she has to justify her
friendship with Frank, in
stead Of understand it. Yet
only by understanding it can
she grow to further maturity
through it.
June can and must deal
with her private affairs with
out interference, but she
should recognize that dealing
with them involves an active
effort toward a goal-not a
mere battling with those she
suspects of interference.

for about two years. At first
they just dated occasionally,
but for the past year they
have been seeing one an
other regularly.
I think it's time we heard
something about the wedding
bells, but when I ask June
she says to leave her alone.
I'm not the kind of mother
who interferes at every step,
but I think I have a right
to know what is going on.
My husband and I like
Frank, but he isn't very
friendly toward us. He tries
to avoid coming to the house
and sometimes gets June to
meet him downtown. If his
intentions were right he
wouldn't be that way.
June Jim old enough to
manage my own affairs with
out any coaching from my
parents. I don't like their
interference. My mother
keeps reminding me that
wnen she was my age she
was married and had three
children. She certainly should
realize that I'm old enough
to take care of myself.
I think Frank loves me but
isn't quite ready to settle
down. Sometimes he talks
Evening star., 1960-02-19

as though he is on the verge
of proposing and then he
backs down. I know it's
Leap Year, but l don't want
to do the proposing.
Frank is an unusual sort
of man-moody and easily
hurt. My parents make him
uncomfortable by acting sus-
piciouS of him.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
We don't feel June should
do the proposing if she
doesn't want to, but she
should make it clear that she
wants to know whether this
is a courtShip or a mere
friendship. II it is not a
courtShip she should be go
ing out with others. If it is
a courtship it should come to
a conclusion within a rea-
sonable length of time.
More than likely Frank
and June are merely using
one another in an uncertain
and unhealthy way to avoid
making meaningful relation

Stress: Rate of Wear and Tear
By DR.. PETER ]. sTEINcRoHN

What is meant by stress?
During the past few years
most of the questions regard
ing heart disease have been
directed to the role of fats
in the diet. Lately, people
have been asking just how
stress is a factor. For ex-
ample:
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I
have been reading about the
meeting of the American
Heart Association in San
Francisco. 1t seems that some
of the doctors believe that
stress is more important in
causing heart disease than
fatty foods. May I have your
opinion? Mr.. T. u"
WHICH Is FIRST? Stress
or the egg? Only time will
tell. Throughout all the ex-
citement concerning fats
land I am not disregarding
the Importance of present
investigations in the role of
saturated and nonsaturated
fats in causing heart dis
ease), I have tried to remain
open-minded.
In other words, abnormal
deposits of cholesterol in the
arteries, has seemed to me
to be due to a combination Of
factors, not to diet alone. I
believe that we must not
overlook the Importance of
heredity, exercise, occupation,
race, color, tobacco, alcohol
and stress.
Stress? Here is as good a
definition as I have ever
heard. DR.. Hans Selye gave
1t in a talk before a group
OF doctors a few years ago.
I used it in the front matter
OF my recent book, You Can
Increase Your Heart-Pover."
"wHAT is STRESS? Any
thing that is too much is
stress.
at Is impossible to live
without stress. Stress results
Evening star., 1960-02-19

even when the heart beats.
Here is a simple definition:
Stress is the rate of wear and
tear. Under great stress there
is premature aging.
Take your car as an
example, its total mileage is
an indicator cf the amount
OF wear and tear. But, it is
the speedometer which is
really the better indicator of
stress. 1t indicates rate of
wear and tear"
Re-read DR.. Selye's deflni-
ton a few times and you will
understand how stress exerts
its effect upon the human
being. I believe you need
not know the actual mech
anism of the pituitary and
adrenal glands (Which play
such an important part in
stress to understand that a
man isn't helping his heart
or blood vessels under the
following conditions of stress:
When he works 14-l8 hours
a day (as many do) without
a vacation or other relaxa-
ton. Hard-driving business
men have higher serum cho-
lesterol than their more re-
laxed colleagues.)
When he harbors day af-
ter day, resentment bordering
on hate, because he is forced
to work under a man who
got the promotion he thought
he ought to have had.
When q wife and husband
live in a marital shambles
amid daily pickering and
argument.
When a soft" middle-ager

and plays a half dozen sets

When a person is subjected

When a husband and wife,
