Near the end of the week, private
advices mentioned that FIRST reports

State Sovereignty Not Dead

SOVEREIGNTY of the states Of the
United States of America has been
attacked for the past ten years in the
now famous suits to desegregate public
schools. Usurpation of power and au-
thority by the U. S. Supreme Court
in its decision Of May II, 1854, and
subsequent action by the government
and lesser federal courts and Judges
challenge the very foundation upon
which this republic was founded The
Constitution of these united states has
been clrcumvented producing a con-
dltlon of uneasiness, unrest and lack of
understanding throughout the nation.
Education is being damaged in many
school districts to the hurt of many
youngsters. AS important as public edu-
cation is, salvation of constitutional
government, and sovereignty of the
states are more important NOW
Had the constitutional procedures
been followed these conditions would
not prevail today Through question
able procedures requiring usurpation
Of authority by the highest tribunal,
the Constitution Of the United States
has been amended to take away from
the states their right to govern their
internal affairs That is the overriding
question in the attack upon public edu-
cation in the United States, which af-
fects the Southern States alone. How
ever, we agree with those who sought
judicial legislation that, amendment of
the Constitution to place the public
educational system under federal con-
troll could never have been consum-
mated, which was the reason that the
questionable procedure through Judi
cial edict was substituted.
State sovereignty and constitutional
government is not dead. Hon. Jimmie
H. Davis, governor of Louisiana, has
challenged the federal courts and the
federal government. BY executive order
he has assumed control of the public
schools Of New Orleans and has ordered

Emancipation Of Woman

ALTHOUGH Americans sometimes do
not realize it, they have done more
for and to the female of the human
race than any other nation in the his
tory of the world. Unfortunately, in
doing so much for the woman, we have
done some things to her.
The good things we have done are
inspirational You and | were born
within the folds of the highest form of
family life that the world has ever at
tanned. We enjoy, without realizing the
greatness Of the system, all the advan-
tages of our monogamic family.
Our society, and this system, has
elevated woman, the chattel, to the
principal of wife and mother; it has
taken man from brutality to make him
faithful husband and a proud father,
who honors his wife, rather than beat
ing her and using her for physical
labors
Unfortunately, the man in the family,
in the United States at least, has del
egated SO much of his responsibility in
some cases that he remains merely a
she'll of man, and not the head of the
house. This has caused weakening of
our family structure in the United
States, has encouraged the woman of
the house to attempt to do more than
she can possibly do, and to move into
fields, which both emotionally upset her
and confuse her, and this abdication of
responsibility has contributed to juve-
nile delinquency and to the breakup
of families in some cases.
Therefore, along with the great pro-
gram we have made in uplifting the
woman, to the greatest degree in the
history Of civilization, it should be re-
membered that the man, or the father in
household, must accept his RESPONSE
bilities or bring on an erosion of our
social order as we have known it and
enjoyed it.

Coherent Beam

THE weapon of science fiction, the
death ray" has now been discover
ed. A beam Of light so powerful that it
will light up an area ten miles wide
all the way to the moon, is said to
have been made possible.
This is called the coherent light"
which is an atomic radio-light describ-
ed as being brighter than the center of
the sun, recently developed by scien-
list Of major U. S. aircraft company.
The discoverer, Dr. Theodore H.
Mailman, reported recently that small,
solid, electronic device, which is smaller
than water tumbler, and which con-
tains synthetic ruby, is now being
used successfully at an aircraft factory
in Culver City to generate the coherent
beam.
The discovery is actually the long,
sought successful amplification Of light.
This is a feat scientists have long
sought to accomplish, and it opens up
enormous possibilities.
Because light produces heat, if it
can be truly amplified it can focus onto
Incredibly tiny points over incredible
distances, and produce terrifying de-
grees Of heat. In fact, such a light
beam, if focused on any object, would
cause it to vaporize almost Immediately.
This is how powerful the new amplified
light ray is.
There is a possibility that this fine
light beam, with it's great power, could
eventually be used in medical work.
focused on bacteria, or small growths
Of cells, which would be a method of
sterilizing or burning these small tar
gets.
All of the possibilities and ramifi-
cations of the new discovery are not
known, but it is safe to report that this
is major scientific breakthrough.
which will be welcomed by scientists
and researchers in every country in all
parts Of the world.

That Governor Davis knows what he
is doing is abundantly plain by his own
statements, which we quote from the
Times-Picayune of New Orleans:
At press conference in the capital Davis
said the time has come for showdown be-
tween federal and state government on the
matter of states rights.
IF they can do everything they are trying
to do he said at the governors mansion,
1.-The state no longer has its sovereignty. In
case of this kind segregation is just one
of the issues
If the states lose their sovereignty he
said" we no longer will have a United States
of America. 1t will be something else
If the state fails to ward off such federal
moves he said I'VE have lost the things

Governor Davis stands upon firm
ground. He stands where once the great

to stand Instead it accommodated it.
self to token racial school Indignation,
which shook the conservative consti-
tutionalists throughout the nation. The
overriding questions of state sovereign
ty have never been decided in the mat
ter. We trust that Governor Davis
and the people Of Louisiana will make
clear-cut case of the principles which
lie behind this movement to usurp the
sovereignty Of the states and which
lead to the deterioration of constitu-
tional government of the United States
of America. May the issue be decided
in calm, sensible, orderly atmosphere
without resort to military power of the
federal government as was done in the
case of Little Rock Much is at stake in
the future governmental structure of
this nation.

that nature had something in

as with sex attraction continu-

the latter and preservation Of its

both national conventions of

that his analogy, far from per-
