Dance at French Embassy
Gay as New Years Eve

The French Embassy
looked like New Years Eve
Saturday night.
AT half past midnight
masses of confetti suddenly
appeared and were tossed
into the air; multi-colored
paper ribbons curled across
heads, looped around necks
and streamed onto the dance
floor; pink balloons were
bounced high overhead to
outstretched hands and
French air cadets lined the
wide staircase and burst into
"The River Kwai" song.
It took the spirit of a sport
to watch this debris litter the
Embassy she had spent every
available moment cleaning
since the fire there a month
ago, but Nine. Alphand not
only beamed~ on the gay
scene. it was she who
dreamed up the confetti and
ribbon.
She and the French Am
bassador wanted the II
young cadets and their 10
officers to have a memorable
and proper welcome to :
America in their own EN-
basSy. Undaunted by the fact
that the big drawing room
and sun room were still
unusable and closed off, she
removed the rugs from the
T-shaped hall and turned it
into a ballroom, kept the
glass doors to the hall closed
and let the guests enter by a
side door In the foyer.
TO ENHANCE ITS AP.

Clusters Of two-toned bal

paneled drawing room was

WHY GROW OLD2.
Eyebrows Serve
As q Frame

Eyebrows are very i'm
portant to the eyes. Nature
probably planned them to
protect the eyes, but they
also act as frames which can
make such a great difference
in orb appeal. When the
browS are too light or when
their shape is unflattering,
the eyes are underplayed. OF
course, If they are too heavi-
ly made up, too harsh, the
eyes are overpowered.
Many women keep heavy
browS all through their lives
but the majority find that
these thin as they grow
older. Woman may also
discover that the brows are
not only thinner but may be
unruly with some coarSer
and longer hairs.
The length Of the brows
can minimize or highlight
defects in beauty. For in
stance, if your eyes are too
close together, take out some
of the hairs from the inner
ends in order to make the
eyes appear further apart.
If there is too much space
between the eyes, then use
your pencil and feather in
some artificial hairs at the
inner ends of the brows.
If your brows are long and
droop at the outer ends, this
is aging. Pluck a few hairs
at the outer ends to shorten

The habit Of darkening the

Thanks Pepper And ;
Groups For Help

In a letter to this newspaper
this week Matthew Little, pres-
dent OF the Twin City Council of
Clubs thanked the paper for its
support of the Fair Housing
March held Sunday, Feb. IL and
also took time to thank other
supporting organizations.
Mr.. Little's letter read:
IT take this opportunity on be-
half Of the Twin City Council of
Clubs to express sincere thanks
for the very excellent coverage
and exploitation You devoted 10
our Fair Housing March" enabl-
ing it to be a successful venture.
Not only are your fine news
papers an established pacesetter
in journalistic perfection, but they
are also of the very highest level
when it comes to rallying the COM
munity behind worthwhile civic
endeavors.
I'D also like to steal this
chance to express gratitude to
many other groups and individuals
whose combined efforts made
Fair Housing Day" a success.
Some of them are: Minneapolis
and st. Paul Branch of the NAA-
CP, Greater Minneapolis Inter
Faith Fair Housing Program, Min
neapolis and st. Paul Urban Leag-
ues, Mayors Council of Human
Relations, st. Phillips Episcopal
church, The Nacirema Club, and
Phyllis Wheatley Settlement
House.
We'd also like to thank the af-
filiated clubs who rallied their
memberships to action, and finally
but certainly not least-the citi-
zens of the community who con-
tributed to the cause.

by nine specific charges which

was unsatisfactory performance as

the movement was the lack of

statement which differed with the
motives for Jewish families moving
from the Northside in the past Is
years as reported by STAR writer

pecially upset by the suggestion
that the migration was occasioned
by the increase in the number of
poor white families and Negroes.

Weaver Confirmed By
Senufe Voice Vote

Washington (ANP) - In what
turned out to be the first of Presi-
dent Kennedy's appointments to
encounter major Senate opposition,
DR.. Robert c. Weaver Of New York
was confirmed last week as federal
housing administrator.
The Senate was urged on to
speedy action by the White House,
Senate confirmation was moved by
Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey, Dem
ocratic whip.
Senate confirmation climaxed
hours of debate in which Weaver,
SO, a Harvard graduate, was des-
cribed by critics as a zealot for
integrated housing and by sup
porters as a dedicated American
who will do a fine job.
About rs senators were in the
chambers and there was no record
vote. Confirmation was by voice
vote. A number of scattered "ayes"
and noes" was heard.
The job carries a salary of $21,-
900 a year.
Most of the opposition was based
on what Sen. A. Willis Robertson
(D-VaD called Weaver's extreme
views in favor of racially integral
ed housing. Southern senators con-
tended that builders in their sec
lions would refuse to develop hous-
ing projects with Weaver in COM
mand of federal programs.
Charges of pro-subversive assoc
iations raised against the nominee
at Senate Banking Committee
hearings were renewed in the de-
bate, although Robertson, chair
man Of the committee, indicated
he accepted Mr.. Kennedy's state
ment that Weaver had undergone
a full probe by the Federal Bureau
Of Investigation.
Supporters of Weaver called
these charges smears,. But Sen.
James o. Eastland (D-Mss.) des-
cribed the nominee as "a man
who has a pro-Communist back
ground" and who belonged to half
a dozen Communist-front organic
atoms"
Robertson and Eastland were not
on hand when the vote finally was
taken.
Customary Senate rules were
ignored in order to speed approx
al Of the Negro leader as admin
istratOr of the housing and home
finance agency.
In the last eight years, all Pres
idential appointments, including
those of cabinet rank, have been
denied immediate action because
of Senate rule requiring at least
a "a hour delay after they are re-
ported to the floor.
Weaver held a number of hous-
ing posts under the New York
State government. In 1944-45, he
was executive director of the may
or's committee on race relations in
Chicago.
He stated earlier he would re-
sign his post as chairman of the
board of the NAACP when his
federal appointment was confirm
ed.
