1t seems to me that this
sentence has rather more than
its fair percentage of unfamil-
lar words-especially one which
I've never even seen before
"conjole." Can you explain
this for uS?-P. N. H., New
York.
Answer: I rather suspect
that Mr.. Lippman never saw
"conjole" before, either, for
no such word appears in the
standard American and British
dictionaries. Pretty obviously
it's simply a misprint for
"cajole."
Actually it's rather a pleas
ant-sounding word. Possibly it
could prove a useful part Of
the language in the sense Mr..
Lippman intended: ito per-
suade or entice one into be-
coming part of a group" How
ever, this inadvertent coinage
is never likely to achieve the
wide use given to another
phrase coined about ten years
ago by Mr.. Lippman: cold

actually closer to the Malayan
word "amoq" from which it's
derived. Today the "amuck"

Voter DiScFiminofion
Heqring In
New OFleuns

The Civil Rights Commission's
hearing in New Orleans was de-
voted to testimony about intimida-
ton Of the right to vote, but the
commission had an example Of at
tempted intimidation right before
1t in the hearing room.
while S5 Negroes testified as
to how they had BEEN prevented
from voting by legal lodges and
even threats. Louisiana Attorney
General Jack Gremillion was re-
cording the names, addresses and
testimony of each. Mr.. Gremillion,
who faces criminal contempt trial
for calling a federal court a kan
CARGO court" explained that I'VE
are here as observerS-more or
less"
The last phrase suggests that
the state Attorney General was
there less as an observer and more,
perhaps, as a prosecutor. For a
new Louisiana law makes It a
crime to testify falsely to federal
officials that a state official has
denied any constitutional right.
Perjury Is, Of course, crime any
where, and the Louisiana law
would be unnecessary except as a
threat to civil rights witnesses.
WHO, in the end, would apply
this law, II it ever Is applied? As
one Negro told the commission,
when we're arrested, we're ar
rested by white policemen. When
we're indicted, we are indicted by
white grand jurors. When we are
tried, we are tried by a white
petit jury. We have nobody to rep
resent us-nobody."
"Louisiana's demonstrable neg
lect Of the right to vote is bad
enough but the implied threat to
anyone who complains Of the stu
alton is ugly business. By seeking
testimony on rights, the Federal
Government seems to have assrlm-
ed burden to represent those who
replied and face local intimidation
as a result"

THE MAKING OF FRIENDS


II nobody smiled and nobody cheered and nobody
helped US along,
II each every minute looked after himself and
good things all went to the strong,
II nobody cared just little for you, and nobody
thought about me,
And stood all alone to the battle of life what
dreary old world it would be!
II there such thing a flag in the sky
as symbol of comradeship here
II we lived as the animals live in the woods, with
nothing held sacred or dear,
And selfishness ruled from birth to the end,
and never a neighbor had we,
And never we gave to another in need, what
dreary old world it would be!
Oh. If were rich the richest earth and
strong the strongest that lives,
Yet never we knew the delight and the charm Of
the smile the other man gives
II kindness were never a part Of ourselves,
Though we owned all the land could see,
And friendship meant nothing at all to here,
what a dreary old world il would be!
Life Is sweet just because Of the friends have
made and the things which in common share;
We want to live not because of ourselves but
because Of the people who care;
It's giving and doing for somebody elSe-on that
all LIES splendor depends,
And the joy of this world when you've summed it
all up, is found in the making Of friends.

Humid Index
Reports Due
This Week

Washington area residents
will be able to find out again
this summer exactly how bad
those hot, sticky days really
are.
r. c. Schmidt, meteorologist
in charge of the Weather Bu-
reau forecasting Office for the
Washington area. said yester-
day that Temperature Humid
ity Index reports will be made
available starting Wednesday.
This guide. known briefly as
the Discomfort Index, was
started on a trial basis last
year The name was changed
when business and hotel in
terests objected to advertising
discomfort.
Mr.. Schmidt said that when
the index, which reflects both
heat and humidity readings, is
at 70 or below most people are
comfortable.
At rs. he said, half the peo-
pie are comfortable and half
uncomfortable.
Most people are uncomfort-
able at 79, he said. The high
for the index in the Washing
toms area last year, Mr.. Schmidt
said, was about 81.
In some other cities, he
added, the Temperature -Hu-
Index has scared as high
as IS. He added that a survey
last year on index readings
had shown that Washington's
climate wasn't bad at all COM
pared with other cities on the
East Coast from Philadelphia

Mr.. Schmidt said he will de-
eide this week under what cir
cumstances the index will be
used on the tape-recorded tele-
phone weather announcements.
Last year. the index appeared
on the recorded announcement
only when the temperature
reached 80 degrees or over.

ton opposes the telephone and
travel tax cuts and also is
against any attempt to take
away the dividend tax credit
which President Eisenhower
urged and Congress passed in
1854.
Senator Kerr persuaded the
Finance Committee last year to
repeal all communications taxes
and Senator Smathers won a
decision by the committee to
end the travel levy. Both were
to take effect in the summer
of 1859.
However, in conference with
the House these actions were
changed so that the communi-
cations repeater applied only
to local telephone service and
the passenger tax was cut in
half. More importantly, the ef-
fective date for both was put
of to July /. 1860, giving the
administration an opportunity
to recommend their extension
this year.
Senator Mccarthy succeeded
last year in getting the Senate
to adopt his amendment to re-
peal the dividend credit.
This credit permits the stock
holder to deduct from his tax 4
per cent Of his dividend income
above $50 which is excluded
from tax. The amendment did
not repeal the $50 exclusion.
However, this provision was
dropped from the bill in the
conference with the House.
Senator Harry F. Byrd, DEM
ocrat of Virginia. the Finance
Committee chairman, has indi-
Gated he may offer as a substi-
tute for the Mccarthy propo-
sal a plan to increase revenue
by putting in a tax-withholding
system on dividend income.
This would raise about the
same revenue as the $335 mil
lion a year which the dividend
credit repeal would bring in.

crease the minimum monthly
