Cancellation Group Endorses
New Try On Refugee Dispute

no progress can be made on the
Palestine Arab refugee question
apart from, or in advance of, an
overall settlement of all Arab
Israeli disputes.
''It is clear" he said, that, as
matters stand Snow, there is no
prospect of an early resolution of
the Palestine question as whole. "
At the same time, however, DR..
Johnson said he found, on the part
of both Arab and Israeli statesmen,
a will to peace and an interest in
the humanitarian aspects of the
Arab refugee problem. He advocat-
ed further efforts during the COM
ing year toward "step-by-step" at
temptS to ease the refugee prob
lem. He stated:
"THE WILLINGNESS express
ed to me to consider the possibility
of a step-by-step process, without
prejudice to positions on the other
related issues, leads me to believe
that it is worth while continuing
the efforts that the commission has
now begun :. To state the matter
in the most negative way, the signs
that no progress is possible are not
so conclusive as to justify a de-
ciSion not to try"
DR.. Johnson, president of the
Carnegie Endowment for Interna-
tional Peace, was sent to the Mid
die East by the commission when
it attempted to carry out special
mandate given it by the Assembly
last spring, to report what progress
had been made toward "repatria-
ton" of the Arab refugees n c
Israel.

has been a lessening of dis
elimination and militant feelings
in a decade.
WHITES STILL MOVE OUT.
Whites still move out as Negroes
move into neighborhood, he said.
But there is no longer mad
rush to get out, there are fewer
symptoms of panic and hysteria.
while, as you in Chicago know,
property owners still make or
ganized efforts to keep Negroes
out, these efforts over the cOun-
try as whole are fewer, feebler
and fordoomed. he said.
There are those who like to
point out that the Negro is better
off in America than he would be
under the Soviet system he said.
His reply to them was that
Americans should measure their
interracial conduct not against
what the Russians do best against
American ideals.

Improved conditions for Ne

won by those who demand justice

lists" declared a Roman Catholic
expert on race relations.
Father Dunno said. 'T h e
theorists of gradualism have ac-
tually never improved anything,
because in this hour of human
relations things do not improve
automically."
He said that unless Americans
move speedily to realize the ideal
that all men are created equal,
they will be swallowed up in
history" W

and decently behaved Negroes
are served in restaurants all over

dependent, nations of Africa and

of Latin America may base their
decision on whether to join the

ton within its borders.

Dunno said, Either justice pre-

The fact that there have been

MACON COUNTERS
INTERGRATED

Macon, Ga. lunch counters and
snack bars were peacefully in
ktegrated after nearly four months
of negotiations between negro
leaders and local businessmen.
Negroes moved into the lunch
counters at number of down
town variety and drug stores at
the modern Westgate shopping
center. There were no incidents.
Discussions which led to the
integration began in nearly June
after attempts by Negroes to be
served at previously all-white
lunch counters had failed.
In mid-June the city council
agreed to desegregate the public
\ golf course and since then Ne
groes have used these facilities
and the public libraries without
incident.
Among the stores which par
ticipated in the integration agree
ment were WoolworthS, Grants
Newberrys and H. L. Green and
the local Dannenberg department
store.
At Newberry's variety store in
Westgate, employees at the lunch
counter were told they did not
have to serve the Negroes but
that the manager and assistant
manager would.
Two white men who were sitting
at the counter VIII en- the Negroes
sat down got up, leaving their
food uneaten, paid their bill and
said they would not eat under
those circumstances ~. z
The Negroes finished their
meals in about Is minutes and
them ibfsabSng into .slsnaller
groups, :sh5pped IN the stores for
awhile before leaving.

Wisdom Is Prize
This is the beginning of
wisdom. And wisdom is the
ultimate prize of old age.
This, in fact, the Bible prom
Uses us: Wisdom is with the
aged, and understanding in
length Of days. Job 1912.
But wisdom does not come
automatically. Like any other
good in life, it has to be
worked at.
Middle age is the time to
explore the remarkable posi-
bilities of thinking.
In our busy youth we have
very little time, and perhaps
even less inclination, to con-
template. Moreover, we have
neither the knowledge of life,
nor the experience. nor the
understanding, to make con-
temptation thoroughly fruit
full. In middle age we have
the makings. Our minds are
trimming with the raw ma
terials for enriching thought.
1t has been said that just
as the three RS" are for the
young, for middle age we
have the three "Cs" - Curl
osity. Creativity and Com
prehension. The late DR.. Ed
ward J. Stieglitz. one of
Americas outstanding geriat-
RIGS specialists, wrote, 1T he
longer men live. the more
time there is to think: to
think is to grow and to grow
is to live"
Worlds Need
Never has the world been
more in need of wisdom.
knowledge We have in album
dance - more than enough
for our own sphere; our
knowledge is billowing out
ward to the reaches Of space.
But wisdom? Do we know
how to live with one anoth-
er? Do we know how to live
with ourselves?
Wisdom is the worlds short
suit. We cannot get If from
the physicists or mathema-
ticians, who are at their sci
entific keenest in their 20s
and 30s. We must seek it
from mature and mellow
minds.
Some individuals. alas. be-
come older but not wiser. At
the 1851 White House Con-
ference on Aging. Prof. Abra-
ham Heschel of the Jewish
Theological Seminary said.
1T becomes meaningless to
ask that our elders be listened
to II they have nothing
meaningful to say"
Now. in middle age, is the
time to ask yourself. What
kind OF an elder will I be-
come? Will I have something
meaningful to say?"
Twenty years from now will
be too late to start working
on that challenge. Wisdom is
a slow-growing plant. Though
its blossoms are quintessen-
TALLY beautiful, its see DIS
must be planted early. II you
have reached middle age, it
is planting time right now.
Don't Slow Down
Don't think OF middle age
as a time to slow down and
stagnate. Take a tip from the
ancient Greek Diogenes, who
lived to be SO. In his last
years, his friends tried to
persuade him to halt his &C
tivities and take it easy. He
replied. What! If l were
running in the stadium.
should I slacken my pace
when I approach my goal?"

about Stagnation, think Of
