it is doubtful that any child

the opportunity of an education
We come then to the question

ON the basis of race. even tho
the physical facilities and other
tangible factors may be equal,
deprive the children of the mi

does.
To parate them from
others of similar age and quail
fications solely because of their
race generates a feeling of in
feriOrity as to their status in
the community that may affect
their hearts and minds in a
way unlikely to be undOne. -.

At Campus

Sheldon C. Westman, twenty
year veteran chairman of the
music department at Commun-
ity High School has been ap-
pointed to the position of prin-
cipal of the Campus Building
of the District 218 schools.
Westman succeeds Clarence
Ames in this position, Ames
was accidently killed recently
and his loss is still widely felt
by all of his former associates.
Westman came to Community
High School as chairman of the
music department in 1871. Since
that time the musical program
has been greatly expanded I'M
der his leadership. At the pres
ent time the outstanding must

addition, each building has

which appears at various ath-
letic contests and musical pro-
grams. Since 1858 an orchestral
group, including students from
all District 218 buildings, has
been formed and is growing
nicely, having already made sew
eral appearances.
In addition, to the band and
orchestra, CHS has S evera

girls chorus and a bows chorus
or a mixed chorus. When stu
dents become Juniors or seniors

Eisenhower Hints He May Cancel Soviet Tour If Khrushchev Continues Attacks

Khrushchev's current blustery outburst against the United States and Eisenhower personally stands this additional view: There is some danger Khrushchev may everyday his hand and wreck summit conference plans com pletely.
 Will Not Go Under Duress
 Eisenhower has repeatedly said he would not go to the summit under threat or duress. While Khrushchev has not carried his present campaign to that point his present tactics suggest the pos sibility that he could do so.
 The follow-up salvo fired by a Khrushchev lieutenant before the Supreme Soviet in Moscow today reinforced the impression, based on Khrushchev's opening blast yesterday, that the Soviet leader has embarked on a deliberate campaign.
 The suddenness of his action caught everyone here from the President down by surprise. Hence official reaction has been slow and cautious, it's development ham pered by the fact that Secretary of State Christian Herter, together with almost all the top officials of the State Department, has been in the Middle East for Allied con- ferences. They are due home tonight.
 But the White House and State

Administration Places Foreign Interests Over US. Welfare - Gruening

WASHINGTON, R = Sen. Er- nest Gruening said yesterday the Eisenhower Administration is "the first in American history to place the interest of foreign countries above those of our own people,"
 Perhaps the psychiatrists can prescribe the proper treatment for this strange schizophrenia which afflicts the EisenhoWer-Nixon Ad- ministration." Gruening told the Senate.
 Gruening said there is an Ad- ministration double standard un- der which it threatens a special session of Congress if a nickel is cut from the requests for foreign aid but squeals with anguish at propoals to spend far lesser sums here at home on exactly the same types of programs"

Crippled Firestone Heir Throws Self Off Havana Hotel

HAVANA, lR - Harvey S. Fire. stone III, crippled scion of the wealthy rubber family, crawled to the balcony of his 2Oth floor hotel suite last night and plunged to his death.
 Cuban authorities ruled hlm a suicide.
 The 30-year-old Firestone, a resident of St. Petersburg, Fla, suffered from cerebral palsy and was confined to a wheelchair. He checked into the Havana Hilton Hotel yesterday with his attend and and a cousin, David M. Fire stone, 29, of Sarasota, Fla. They planned to stay three days.
 About 2 pm. Harvey disap- peared and his two companions called police.
 Clad only in white shorts and a pajama top, his body was found on a third-floor parapet above the main entrance of the 25-story sky scraper in the heart of the Cuban capitol.
 Harvey, who had powerful arms and shoulders, apparently crawled to the balcony of the room, pulled himself out of his wheelchair and plunged over the 312 -foot-high aluminium grill barrier around the balcony. Death was instantaneous.
 The dead man was the grandson of the founder of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Go. and the only son of Harvey s. Firestone Jr., now head of the firm.

President Signs Hotly-
 Contested Civil Rights Bill

WASHINGTON, R - President Eisenhower signed today the 1860 Civil Rights Bill keyed to new pro- lection for the voting rights of Negroes.
 Eisenhower called the law "an historic step forward in the field of civil rights" although Congress failed to include some of his rec concentrations.
 with continuing help from all responsible persons, the new law will play an important role in the days ahead in attaining our goal of equality under law in all areas of our country for all Americans" " Eisenhower said.
 The signing was without any extraordinary ceremony.
 The Presidents statement noted tha this is only the second civil rights measure passed by Con- gres in 85 years. He said it, like the 1857 law, was built on recom- mendations of the Administration.
 Congress passed the legislation April 21 after months of struggle, marked by one week of around the-clock Senate sessions.

Sure Presidential Veto Seen For $251 Million Aid to Depressed Areas

WASHINGTON, R = The Sen ate today sent to President Eisen- hover = and an apparently sure veto - 251 million-doll bill to aid chemically distressed areas.
 The vote was 45-32 or seven votes short of the two-thirds that would be needed to override a veto.
 The measure carries authoriza- tions for federal loans and grants aimed to create jobs in long-term depressed industrial and rural areas over the country.
 If there is veto, Democrats plan to try to make it a major issue in this years naional cleo ton campaign. There seems to be little chance a veto could be over ridden.
