board of directors after a study
of more than a year.
The Boys Club had been
asked, in effect, to integrate
it's Eastern branch last year by
the board of directors of the
Health and Welfare Council
of the National Capital Area
The Councils board at that
time had cut to one year the
two-year continued United
Givers Fund support recon-
mended by its membership COM
mittee for the Boys Club.
Board To Decide
The HWC board will meet
later this month to determine
how much support it will rec
ommend for the Boys Club
this year.
Officers of the Boys Club
said they had not been pres
sured" into opening the Eastern
branch to Negroes.
Oliver Gasch. counsel for the
Boys Club, said membership at
the Eastern branch has de-
clined from $500 to 800 boys
in the last 10 years.
Mr.. GaSch said the club hopes
to obtain some financial sup
port from Negro leaders in the
community, as the Health and
Welfare Council provides only
40 per cent of the cost of oper-
ating the facility.
Another organization for
boys, the Metropolitan Police
Boys Club, appointed COM
mittee a few months ago to
study whether its facilities
should continue to be operated
on a racially segregated basis

Presley Back in U. S.,
Will Leave Army Soon

FORT DIX, N. j., Mar. 8
(AP).-Sergt. Elvis Presley,
singing idol of the rock n
rollers. arrived here from Ger
many today to be mustered out
of the United States Army.
The Army said it should take
two or three days to separate
him from the service.
A Military Air Transport
plane carrying Sergt. Presley
and a number of other soldiers
landed at nearby MCGUIRE Air
Force Base in a swirling snow
storm at 1880 am.
The 24-year-old singer has
served in the Army for almost
TWO years. He left the United
States in September, 1858, fol-
duty with an armored division
in Germany.
Last Man Of Plane
Sergt. Presley was the last
man of the four -engine trans
port. About so persons, includ-
ing newsmen and dozen teen
ayers, were on hand. Some Of
the teen-agers said they hao
been up since midnight waiting
for their idol.
The singer posed for pictures
as he stood facing into the driv-
ing snow.

I ever had" he told newsmen

Wallace?" Was he "quite hepped
up over the One World idea?"
Was he IAN extremist on equal
ity of races?"
When the Supreme Court ruled
in 1856 that only sensitive jobs
can be covered by the security
program, Vitarelli sued for re-
instatement. In as sneaky bit
of bureaucratic law evasion as
we have seen in some time, the
Interior Dept. withdrew its Sc
curity charges and fired Vitarelli
retroactively.
Now the Supreme Court has
ordered Mr.. Vitarelli's reinstate-
ment and back pay. But it seems
to us that something still needs
to be done about those who adj
minister the security program
with such outrageous disregard
for American principles. Are
they not the real risks to the Sc
curity of American democracy?
Little Rock Fights Back
Labor had a part in recalling
the three segregationist members
of the Little Rock school board
who purged A teachers. Leaders
of the Machinists, Teamsters, Au-
to Workers and Electrical Work
ers all backed the successful eff
fort to defend the teachers, and
the Arkansas Union Labor Bull
letin vigorously campaigned for
the recall. Zone of the first maj
or projects endorsed by labor
unions was the creation of our
free public school system. 1t must
not be damaged or destroyed by
a reign of terror" declared the
Bulletin.
The Chamber of Commerce,
the Ministerial Alliance, the
PTAs and other groups also
fought hard to restore decency
to Little Rock. And although
four Little Rock craft locals back
ed the segregationists, analysis
of the vote showed sharp in
creased support for the mod
crate" board members in most
working class areas of the city.
HooraY For Minnesota
For the second successive year,
the anti-subversive committee of
the Minnesota American Legion
has sounded a warning against
vigilantism in the treatment OF
those who disagree with tn e
views of the majority. The Lee
gion committee, which includes
Ed Ryan, sheriff of Hennepin
County, and William Protez, st.
Paul police chief, refuses to be-
come a militant police force
eager to pass judgment" terming
that policy a negative concept
of Americanism."
whenever we are carried
away by the passions OF the mo-
ment and circumvent the law
by exercising mob rule we
then become little different than
the totalitarian state we desplse.

Rabbits, Pics and the Whole-H Hog
T. WRRv elSo~aaa


Rabbits, Pigs and the Whole-Hog
Nobody's gonna put anything
over on Alabama segregationists.
Take that deep-dyed integration-
list children's book by Garth Will
liams, THE RABBITS WEDDING
which tells about white rabbit
marrying black rabbit. Before
the State Senate committee got
word Of it, this book was on the
open shelves of the states public
libraries. But not any more! The
Senate committee got hopping
mad; The Rabbits Wedding has
been Withdrawn from the read
ing rooms and the innocent chill
dren of Alabama have been saved
again.
A Florida segregationist has
uncovered an even more diabol-
ical plot. David Hawthorn of Mi
ami has alerted the Florida state
legislature that The Three Little
Pigs is much worse than the
rabbit story" The white pig and
the black m white pigs are eaten
by the big bad wolf, while the
all-black pig-who made his
house of brick-outwits the wolf.
"This is brainWashing," says
Hawthorn, and he wants the leg
islature to go whole-hog against
the book.
Maybe there's some truth to
the rumor that the White Cltl-
zens Councils want to ban every
book that has black ink on white
paper!
Who Should Be Fired?
Hum See, a 60-year-old gear
inspector at the Anna Corpora
ton plant on Long Island, is a
naturalized citizen who has been
in the United States for more than
20 years and has worked o r
Arma since 1943.
See has no access to classified
information. But in June 1858, he
was dismissed from his job be-
cause it was discovered that he
has close relatives on the Chin
csc mainland.
Local 400 of the international
Union of Electrical Workers
QUE), brought the case to arbi-
tration and arbitrator Robert
Stutz, pointing out that no ques-
ton had ever been raised about
Sees loyalty, honesty or char
acter," ruled that See must be
reinstated and paid $4,000 back
salary.
Now Anna refuses to rehire
See until he is cleared by the De-
Tense Department, even though
the security program does not
extend to jobs not involving clas-
sified information. 1t looks as
though trip to court will be
necessary before See is found
mot guilty. despite being relat-
ed to his uncles, his cousins and
his aunts.
In another case, the Supreme
Court, overturned the dismissal
of Interior Dept. employee, Will
liam Vitarelli, on the grounds
that he had been denied "a mean
ingful, fair, decent and dlgnltled
hearing" Vitarelli, teacher on
a Pacific island, was fired IN 1904
on charges of Communist asso-
Citations.
One of the most shocking Tea
lures of this case were the ques-
tons put to Vitarelli to deter
mine whether or not he was a
security risk" Did Mr.. Vltarelll
think maybe Negroes ana Jews
are denied some of their consul
tutional rights?" Had he voted
for. Norman Thomas and Henry

count the films being made
in Hollywood for televiSion,
that makes Rome the biggest
movie-making capital in the
world. Four German and two
French films also are being
hot in various parts of Italy.
The trend in Italian movies
is just to out-do Hollywood
at its own game-to make
bigger and better Hollywood
type spectaculars for less
money. Producer Dino De

There is no new wave"
here, as in France. italian
producers aren't taking
chances on an unproven for

But movies with artistic
aims are still being made in
Italy.
Among the most recent
and certainly the most talked
/, about-is Federico Fellini'S
La Dolce Vita" which won
the first prize at this years
Cannes film festival. Both
De Laurentiis and Lombardo
refused to make it, because
they thought the story about
the night life. of cafe society
in Rome wouldn't be profit
able.
But La Dolce Vita" has
already made back in Italy
and France its original cost
of $1,600,000. And it seems
sure to make money in the
United States. There has
never been an Italian film

Kirk Douglas believes the
movies and baseball are both
plagued by too many stastis-
tics.
Il love them both," says
Douglas, head of Bryna Pro-
ductions, in explaining why
he didn't want to talk about
three movies which have a
cash outlay Of $25 million.
"You listen to a ball game
on the radio and the score
is tied with the bases loaded.
Breathlessly the announcer
informs you that the next
batter is hitting .312 right
handed pitching, .344 against
southpaws and has a life
time .420 average against
this particular pitcher.

strikes out"
Douglas believes tn a t
moviemakers have much the
same preoccupation with fig
ureS.
What people forget" says
Douglas, "is that you can
have the biggest budget. the
longest schedule, the costliest
sets-and still have a dull
movie"

ever made in Hollywood-the
$12 million "SpartacuS." The
cast alone Sir Laurence Oli-
vier, Jean Simmons. Charles
Laughton, Peter Ustinov,
John Gavin and Tony Curtis
cost Douglas 50 million.
IF the picture is good, it's
worth $12 million. If not, it's
not worth $12. Regardless.
we don't plan to advertise
the cost. And for a good rea-
son.
"I never heard anyone ask
a theater manager what time
the budget went on"
Following ""Spartacus," |"
Douglas made a So million

from Douglas:

ROME. Sept. 10. Look
what's happened to italian
movies since Gina Lollo-
brigida and Sophia Loren
left:
Anna Magnani has broken
her arm being funny.
Roberto Rossellini is max
ing pictures again.
A chunky newcomer named
Claudia Cardinale is the
newest italian symbol Of sex.
Rome movie lots are buster
than ever before. And their
products have such erotic
themes that the govern
ment's minister Of spectacles
has threatened to crack
down with censorship.
IT'S just coincidence. But
the italian movie industry
that seemed grayely i'll when
Miss Loren and Miss Lollo-
hrigida departed for richer
shores. has revived-with q
bounce.
Gina and Sophia return
occasionally to make q pic
ture or two in their native
land for Hollywood employ
ers.
But Miss Loren finds it EN-.
barrassing to live here per-
manently with her husband,
producer Carlo Ponti, because
according to Italian law he is
married to his first wife, who
is here too.
And Miss Lollobrigida has
made her home in Toronto,
Canada, so that her Yugo-
slav-born, Stateless husband
and their small son can ac-
Quire Canadian citizenship.
It's Cheaper. See
The reason for the boom
In Italian movies is, basical-
ly, the same reason other Eu-
ropean film capitals are
booming and the industry in
Hollywood is declining. It's
cheaper to make pictures
here. And If they are Italian
productions. or an Ameri-
can producer can work out a
