A law enacted by the Legisla-
ture created the Mississippi
Sovereignty Commission during
former Governor J. P. Coleman's
tenure of office.
1t was tagged as a ''segrega-
ton" measure and like all legis-
Iation of this kind then and now
it passed with little question or
dissent.
Some people, however, looked
askance at the creation of tbs
Sovereignty Commission, not be-
cause they were opposed to
sovereignty of the state or the
laws of u state which require
segregation, but for the potential
harm such an agency could bring
to our state and its people.
Personally we felt at the time
that the creation of the So.
v~ereignty Commission was akin
to creating a Gestapo, a dreaded
state police like they had in
Germany before World War II.
The very thought of a state
agency being given the authority
to hire secret investigators to
spy on anyone in our state (and
the Sovereignty Commission has
that authority is abhorrent to
every freedom-loving man and
woman of the state and nation.

Oral Polio
 Vaccine to Be Marketed Soon

WASHINGTON R = The gov ernment Thursday announced clearance of oral polio vaccine for protection against one of the three types of polio.
 A license has been granted to manufacture the take live virus vaccine for Type I Polio.
 Surgeon Gen. Luther L. Terry Of the Public Health Service said: T want to emphasize that an oral vaccine providing protection against all three types of polio- myelitis will not be available for some time. The vaccine being licensed produces immunity only against Type Polio"
 Therefore, it is of the highest importance that vaccinations con tinue with the Salk Vaccine which is the only weapon we have to- day to provide protection against all three types of polio," he said.
 The Public Health Service will continue its efforts to promote the widest possible use of the Salk Vaccine. When the full series of oral vaccine becomes available, we will also help in it's promotion
 Terry said that of the three types of polio virus, Type I has been responsible in recent years for between so and 70 per cent of all paralytic polio in this coun- try.
 The Type I license was issued to ffizer Ltd., Sandwich, England. The vaccine will be marketed in the United States by Chas. Pfizer & Co., Inc. of New York.
 The live oral polio vaccine was developed by Dr. Albert Sabin of Cincinnati. The Salk Vaccine, ad- ministered by injection, depends on killed virus. It was developed by pr. Jonas Salk of Pittsburgh.

Cuba Abstains
 Signing of Punta Del Este Charter

PUNTA DEL ESTE, Uruguay R The United States and IS Latin American nations Thursday signed the 8,0O0- word Charter of Punta Del Este, thus officially launching President Kennedy's $20-billion alliance for progress. Cuba ab- stained.
 Secretary of Treasury Douglas Dillon signed for the United States. The 18th to sign, he was warmly applauded.
 Venezuela, following an order of precedence decided by lot at the start of the 13-day conference, signed first.
 Uruguay, the host country, was last.
 The alliance for progress is in- tended to get the jump on the spread of Communism in Latin America.
 In the closing hours Dillon and Cuban economic czar Ernesto Gueva-a traded bitter words after the United States and 19 of the 20- American participants ap- proved the charter and a l,OOO- word summary to explain the pro- gram to Latin Americas 2OO- million people.
 The alliance plan provides for financial aid and seM-help over the next ten years to improve the lot of Latin America's 20Q-nlillion citizens and reduce the regions glaring gap between poverty and wealth.
 Dillon declared that Cuba will never benefit from the alliance for progress "as long as the gov- erment of Cuba remains under the control of foreign power - namely, the Soviet Union"
 Dillon added, Cuba's tactics here Demonstrated that Fidel Cas- tro's regime did not come to Punta Del Este with "the inten- tion of developing" the alliance but "for political reasons"
 Guevara was the only delegate who failed to sign the 8,O00-word charter.
 The chief of the U. s. delega- tion hailed the night-anys-day toii of American Republics as achiev- ing pact that will serve as "the guiding post for the future of the America's."

RehObOth Art League
Exhibit July 10th

An exhibition of more than 60
paintings and drawings by Howard
S. Schroeder, widely known Lewes
artist and instructor at the Reho-
both Art League will open Sunday
afternoon. July 16. in the Corkran
and Paynter studios of the art
league. Combined with this exhibi-
ton, will be sculptures by Gina
Plunguian, also an instructor at the
League. The exhibit will be open
to the public until July 2S, and
will be retained. in part. to be
shown with the Cottage Tour of
Art pictures when they are return
ed to the studios, until Aug. IA.
Mr.. Schroeder's painting will be
mostly watercolors of lower Della
ware and about 40 recent paintings
he did in Puerto Rico. Last March
Mr.. Schroeder flew down to San
Juan, Puerto Rico for almost a
month of painting. He worked in
the quaint old section of that city,
moving about the island and stopp-
ing where he found the landscape
to his liking. His paintings depict
the color and lushness of the trop
les, the brilliant colors of foliage.
houses, and dresses of the natives,
and above all the Caribbean Sea
with its boats, fisherman, island
and birds.
In his Delaware paintings h s
favorite subject matter is the local
marine scenes, especially along the
Delaware Bay. He tries to capture
the feeling of these places from
the bright sunny days with white
boats and sparkling blue water to
the misty, moody loneliness of fall
and winter. He paints these land
scapes in a loose. bold colorful
technique, mostly realistic, with
once in a while abstract overtones.
Mr.. Schroeder is well known in
Delaware as an artist and teacher
of art Besides classes at the Re
hoboth Art League he is in a mum
ber of towns through the Penin-
sula, at the Dover Air Base and
at st. Andrews. He has won many
prizes locally and also in large
jury shows in Wilmington and Bait
imore, and has exhibited in nation
al jury shows in New York City.
Philadelphia, and Washington DC.
Last spring he won a first prize at
the watercolor show in the Della
ware Art Center, in Wilmington.
Mrs. Plunguian. widely exper-
fenced teacher in New Jersey.
Tennessee, Ohio, and the Fine Arts

several points around the door. Call
repairman to plug the leaks.
To eliminate opening the refrig
orator door too often. have all foods
ready TO place in the refrigerator
before opening the door. Close the
door Immediately after you have
placed the food inside.
If your refrigerator shakes and
rattles, II probably isn't level. After
leveling the refrigerator, be sure
that food containers are not knock
ing against each other or against
the cooling unit.
Too much frost on the freezing
unit is often caused by air leaks
around the door, uncovered foods
in the refrigerator. incomplete de-
frosting or the temperature control
being set too low. Cover all foods,
defrost completely and keep the
temperature at 35-45 degrees f.,
Miss Middleton recommends.
If your refrigerator motor stops
running, check the electrical circuit
by plugging a lamp into the same
outlet. II the lamp doesn't light,
the trouble may be a burned out
fuse that you can replace easily.
Take care to replace 1t with the
proper size fuse. If it still doesn't
work, the electrical circuit is prob
ably causing the trouble. If the
lamp does light, then the trouble is
in the motor itself Faulty elect
rical circuits and motors aren't re-
pair jobs to be tackled by unskill-
ed do it yourselfers. So call in
an appliance repairman, Miss Mid
dleton says.
Remember, fix only those things
that you know how to repair. Leave
the rest to a trained repairman.
Trying to fix things you're unfam-
iliar with is dangerous and can
cost you money.

Veterans Getting
Special Dividend

More than $4,000 veteran-policy-
holders of both USGLI and NSLI
insurance in Delaware began this
week to receive $544, 500 in a "spe-
cial" dividend, Leon Fields, man
ager of the Wilmington, Delaware,
Veterans Administration Regional
Office said today.
Payment of the special" divi-
dend began June 26 and is expect
ed to be completed soon after July
81, 1861.
Funds for the special" divi-
dend were allotted from the con-
tingency reserves after actuarial
experts from private insurance
companies advised the Veterans
Administration it might divert
$3.50 million for this special" div
idend without jeopardy to CT In
surance Funds.
The VA had distributed in Della
ware earlier this year the sum of
$616.7OO in regular dividend pay
ments.
Both the regular" and special"
dividend payments are primarily a
refund to USGLI and NSLI policy
holders of part of their premium
payments made possible because
the death rate among policyhold-
ers continues to be lower than the
actual rate upon which premiums
were established by law.
Manager Fields said that veter
ans could help speed receipt of
their special dividend checks by
NOT making inquiries of VA Off
cials. Answering of such inquir-
les, he said, would divert person
mel time from the dividend pro-
ject and create a delay in pay
ments.

Hurricane Season
Is Under Way

The Delaware Chapter, American
Red Cross. today warned that now
through the end of October, the At
lantic and Gulf Coastal areas will
again be vulnerable to hurricanes
The state chapter has issued ten
safety tips that should be followed
to minimize the loss of life and
property in the event a hurricane
should strike this area.
Each year these devastating trop-
ical storms boil up in the South
Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, often
spreading destruction and ruin a.
long the Eastern Seaborad.
Last years Donna was a prime
example of the destructive power
of these storms, Lammot DUPONT,
Jr., chapter chairman, said. "When
Donna struck, the IL branch areas
under the Delaware chapter went
into action, providing relief to hun
dreds of Delawareans. Fifteen shell
ters were opened and 10 others
went on standby vasis )"
Captain John Wallerstein is chair
man of the Sussex County Disaster
Service Coordinating Committee.
The Red Cross advises the foil
owing safety steps to be taken.
/. Follow official Weather Bur-
eau reports closely in your news
papers and on radio and TV.
2. Store such articles as garden
furniture. tools, awnings. and other
such objects in a safe place. Such
items could become lethal weap-
ons in storm.
3. Board up windows and p ut
storm shutters into place.
A. If you're told to evacuate,
don't delay. Just get out and follow
instructions-a minute could save
your life.
5. Don't run the risk of being
marooned. Get away and stay away
from low lying areas, beaches or
other places likely to be swept by
Ocean winds and high tides.
6. Don't go outside during h e
storm. Stay indoors, preferably in
a brick or concrete building.
Stay away from windows.
s. II the center or "eye" of the
storm passes directly overhead,
there will be a deceptive lull, last
ing as long as 30 minutes. Stay
where you are during this calm per
iod. The wind will return from the
opposite directions-with greater
force.
8. Fill bathtub. bottles, n d
cooking utensils with water. Keep
extra food, which does not require
cooking. handy. Be sure to have a
flashlight or candle to use in the
event of a power failure. II you
have baby. keep plenty of form
