BURGLAR IS "REGALED"

Nagoya, Japan (ANP) - Break
ing into an apartment here last
week, a burglar said in a threaten
ing tone: "Okay, girls, hand over
everything you've got! But Tam
ami Oki, %, equal to the occasion,
replied: Before you take our val
let me perform for you!"
So saying, she switched on the
radio and began peeling off her
clothes. The thief's eyes popped as
he said: Wonderful! This is more
than 1 bargained fort" Meanwhile,
unnoticed, the other girl, Michiyo
Oishi, 81, slipped out the back way
and called police. Disguised, but
still Keeling from the revealing
performance, the burglar told po-
lice: How was I to know that the
girls were professional strip teas
ers at a burlesque house"

FISK UNIVERSITIES
MAY ENROLL MORE
WHITE STUDENTS

Nashville (ANP) - Ninety
year-old Fish university is consid-
ering steps designed to increase
its enrolment of white students,
President Stephen J. Wright an
nounced last week.
DR.. Wright said this matter was
being considered by a University
committee seeking to establish
long-range goals for the privately
endowed college.
Fisk has admitted a few white
students for several years. Ten
are now enrolled in its student
body of 9O4. In addition, a few
white students normally attend
Fisk under an exchange program
with other colleges.
Colleges with primarily Negro
enrollments, Wright said, find it
hard to maintain a level Of excel
lence because of the culturally
disadvantaged backgrounds from
which many of the students come,
as we'll as the quality of the high
schools from which many come"
He said it was also difficult for
such schools to raise money.
Wright added that there is some
question whether colleges for Ne
groes will be needed in the future
as a result of the Supreme Court
decisions ordering desegregation of
public schools.
In recent years, Fisk has aver
aged about 10 white students in its
enrolment of some 900.

More For DepositOrs:
Farmers & Mechanics
Bonk Announces
Interest Increase

The Farmers & Mechanics Saw
ings Bank of Minneapolis Decem-
Der 26 announced its intention to
Increase interest rates to 81 z on
standard savings accounts and
4K% on investment deposit &C
counts, effective January l, 1862.
with this action, F & NJ still
will be paying the highest bank
interest in the state on savings,
John deLaittre, president, said in
announcing the intended increase
following approval by the board of
trustees.
He pointed out that the anticip-
ated increase amounts to one
quarter per cent on both types of
accounts. The S7-year-old institu-
ton, Minnesota's only mutual saw
ings bank, has 100000 depositors
and assets of 1859 million. 1t is
the fourth largest bank in the
state.
F & Ms last interest rate in
crease, aside from the introduction
of the investment deposit account,
was October l, 1859, when it went
from 3A% to 315%0.
The 3%% rate, compounded
quarterly, will benefit some 231,5Oo
depositors, including more than
100, 900 children in the school saw
ings program, 1000 in payroll saw
ings and 5000 in insurance saw
ings.
The Az p rate applies only to
the banks investment deposit &C
count, which has been paying since
its introduction in March, 1860,
Az on multiples of $1,000 left on
deposit for one year.
deLaittre said the $500 I'D Gus
toners will receive the Az rate
through December 81, 1861, and
the higher anticipated 4A% rate
thereafter. For example, a GUS
toner who opened an I'D account
on July /, 1861 will receive the
Az rate for six months and the
4ATo rate for the last six months
of his one-year period, July 1,
1862 being his maturity date.
Approximately $50 million of F
& Ms $40 million in deposits is
I'D money, deLaittre pointed out.
Two examples were cited by de-
Laittre to show how depositors
will benefit from the increase.
A customer with $50 in his &C
count received SLIT in quarterly
compounded interest at the old
rate for a year. At the new 3& 70
rate he will receive $1.90 or 13
cents more.
On investment deposit accounts
taking $1,000 as the example, the
old rate returned $40. The new
4A%o rate will return $42.50 oil
$3.50 more.

Wisconsin Leader
Pessimisfic About
US. Race Problem

Madison, Wis, Dec. 13-f all
discriminatory laws in the United
States were repealed Immediately,
race would remain one Of the most
pressing moral and political prob
lens in the nation, Negro leader
said at the 18th annual dinner
here recently of the Blessed Mar
tin Guild.
Negroes in this country are not
simply victims OF a system Of in
iquitous statutes" said Stanley p.
Hebert, commissioner Of the Wis
consin Public Service Commission.
THE American economy, the
American society. and the Amer
lean unconscious all are racist.
IF all laws suddenly were re-
pealed, there would still be the
vast, silent, automatic system d.
rected against men and women of
color. To be equal, the Negro re-
quires something much more pro-
found than a way into the society.

message chosen by Rev. Lowell
Johnson on Sunday morning, Dec.
"a.
Rev. johnson opened his message
by stating God puts together COM
binations of strange things to
work a sovereign will. He ran the
theme somewhat parallel to an
earthly reception. He stated that
God was preparing three-thousand
years for the reception of his Son,
but he did not have glittering
engraved invitations as we have
today.
In conclusion: Rev. Johnson
stated that we are the guests and
the gift we should bring is our
souls, for the Lord say the day
you hear my voice harden not your
heart. Come unto me all we that
labor and are heavy laden and I
will give you rest.
We are happy to welcome little

PILGRIM BAPTIST

Beyond the Stable" based on
Mary kept all of these things and
pondered them in her heart, st.
Luke PIG was the subject of the
Christmas message brought by DR..
Massey Sunday, Dec. oath.
The minister recounted the events
surrounding the birth of Jesus.
This great event Christmas" came
out of the heart and mind of God.
Man could never conceive such an
idea, no spectacular show, no pub
icity, born in a lowly stable and
heralded by the lowly shepherds
and the kings from afar to empha-
size that He came for all mankind.
DR.. Massey pointed out that far
too many Christians have only a
Christmas religion, they never get
out of the stable. Jesus could never
have saved the world had he not
waxed strong and grown out of
the stable. The minister told the
Worshippers that a stable faith was
not enough but instead admonished
that we must have a cross faith, a
resurrection faith and a penecost
faith. We need a historical Christ,
a today's Savior and a tomorrow's
.Redeemer. The fact that Jesus was
taken as a babe to Egypt is SYM
bolic of the fact that we must in
wade all lands, minds and hearts
wherever mankind may be.
The minister concluded by tell
ing the worshippers to be kind,
thoughtful and all the things that
make for a happy Christmas but
continue these things after Christ
mas. Christ is only happy when
He has moved from the stable into
the living room of our hearts.
Prior to the sermon the chill
dren's story was narrated by Miss
Paula Woods who impressed upon
the Children that gifts should not
be given because they felt they
should but because they gave them
to show love-

of the basic institutions of socie-
ty."
Mr.. Hebert said that this is why
it is not enough to open the south
ern schools, to sit in at the lunch
counters and to move into the
previous all-white neighborhood.
1T is enough" he continued, ITO

ly as human beings, as Catholic
as others are Catholics, as an
American as others are American.
He deserves not more, and will set

Negroes realize that discrimina-
ton is a national problem, Mr.
Herbert said, and that they cannot
solve it alone.
Every man, he said, has an equal
right to life, to justice before the
law, to the privileges and immun-
tiles Of other citizens, to earn a
living commensurate with his abil-
tiles and ambitions, to a proper re-
spect for his human dignity.
He quoted Cardinal Albert Mey-
er of Chicago:
ION the basis Of personal diff
ferences, we may make distinc-
tons, but discrimination based on
the accident of birth, irrespective
of the worth of the individual, can
not be reconciled with the truth
that God has created all men with
equal rights and dignity"

cludeS almost as much in so-called
fringe benefits as appears in the
weekly pay envelope. For example,
many japanese firms are required to
provide very low-eost housing and
sometimes three meals Q day
Furthermore, the cost Of production
in a japanese factory is often higher
than the total production costs in q
similar American plant.
For one thing, Japan has few Of
the raw materials that America has in
abundance. This means Japan must
import virtually all basic raw mate.
rials at high cost.
Secondly, the US. worker Is sup.

creasing the amount Of work he can
do in one hour.
New Program Needed
Finally, q japanese businessman
often must pay almost double the in.
terest rate for operating capital than
his American counterpart.
Despite these problems and many
others, the japanese economy has
been growing at phenomenal rate in
the last decade. The increase totalled
Il7qS during 1859, 1870 during 1860.
