1t seems important to us that higher
educational standards be set throughout
the land in order to serve the nations
most pressing need to develop the full
potential of all our people = for our citi-
zenry is the greatest resource America
has.
We have always felt, and still do, that
control of the schools should be in the
hands of the local community. But lay
men in few communities are competent
to set up standards for a school
In the light of todays Space Age and
the demands it makes upon us, we are
wondering if we should not take another
look at our schools, examine what our
students are learning or not learning, the
subject matter they are exposed to, evalu-
ate them in the light of new age. Make
mo mistake this a new age, calling for
greater responsibilities than ever before.
And it is one in which we fail at
our own peril.
In this connection we are looking for
ward to a report from the Education
Study Committe of the Mississippi Legis-
lature headed by Rep. ]. P. Love, Holmes
County.
What these men find in their detail
ed study of our states educational System
will probably surprise and may shock
some of us.
In the meantime it may be good
idea for us to reflect upon the fact that
more uniform laws are needed among the
|, states to bring the nations educational
standards up = just as laws have been
enacted setting the minimum standards
of the state.
In considering the question of edu-
cation we must realize that this is one
nation established on equal rights to all
our people, but there can be no equal
rights if anything as important as educa-
tion is given more emphasis in some
states than others.
When America is in mortal danger
she calls upon all her people to man the
Idefenses.

An excellent example of the
growth and development of
small home-owned industries in
Mississippi is seen in the Cavi-

Calhoun City. The company.
owned and operated by jim

and chair backs for chrome
dinette suites. Plans are now
underway to expand into the
production of fishing poles, oars,
and skis, according to Caviness.
During the past three years
Caviness has been making a
variety of boat paddles and dis
trlbuting them through jobbers
throughout the United States
and into Canada. In 1860 he

reasons those four would attend such

pends upon the need as deter

The number of years allowed
for repayment depends upon the
amount of income expected each
year and the purposes for which
the money is advanced.

We Must Go To Work
Russians Score Again In Space Still Ahead

The impressive accomplishments of
has pointed up again in the most chilling
way the necessity of America to stop
playing and go to work.
The widely held idea that our own
space program can not be speeded up ap-
preciably is not encouraging and some
how the secret thought long held that
we are not as prepared as we should be
to meet this Communist thrust takes a
frightening grip
The theme of the space age, as one
writer put it, isn't Give little, take
little" Instead it is winner take ALL
By now it is obvious our own coun-
try is not as prepared as we should be
with trained men and women called for
I'm today's Space Age, an age that calls
for electrical engineers and physicists
where yesterday we needed mechanics
and laboratory techniclans.
A new and long look at our institu-
tiOns of higher learning is called for to
see how adequately they are serving the
nations needs in this growing crisis -
because it is to these institutions we must
look for people of high type with quality
training, people who can produce what
America must have in order to survive.
An examination of our whole system
of elementary and secondary education is
called for, too, because it is in these early
years that boys and girls are imbued with
the desire to learn and make something
of themselves or else become mere cogs
in the school wheel, staying only as long
as the required number of times the wheel
must turn before they can be released
Certainly it should be apparent that
America today needs the brains and abiIi-
ties of all her citizens, as well as their
Drawn, and it is equally apparent that
some citizens are better qualified in some
areas of the country to assume important
responsibilities than they are in others.
Much of this can be laid squarely to
the varying degrees of quality in the
school systems throughout the land In
some regions it is much better than in

Riddle: What has increased $50 in
the past decade yet still is the runt of
the litter?
Answer: Mississippns per capita per-
sonal income, lowest among those of the
so states and the District of Columbia
In 1850, Mssissippians earned an
average of S735 EACH In 1860, the aver
age had grown to $1,000. The So % growth
represented by that squirt was exceeded
only slightly in only three other states
our neighbor Alabama, with a 71%
increase. our neighbor Arkansas, with
70%, and our non-neighbor Oklahoma,
65%.
Yet we Mississippians, running like
the devil, managed only to remain in last
place. We could have stayed there with
out running at all.
Figures released this week by the
National Industrial Conference Board
show that the national average income
in 1860 was $2242 person, up 500 from
1850. Leading state was Delaware, with
$500, closely followed by the D. of c..
with $4,000, and then in order by Con-

Women Scientists VifoIIy Needed
March Of Dimes Grantee Warns

Increasing mum bers of
young women must be en-
couraged to become medi-
cal research scientists. They
are needed to make up the
loss of men researchers
who more and more are
turning to electronics and
other technical fields unre-
lated to. the nations health.
This is the view Of Dr. Vir-
ginia Tennyson, a medical sci
enlist herself, who sees the day
near when there will be an
acute and dangerous shortage
of science laboratory talent un-
less hundreds of girls-now in
high school or entering college
can be won over to science
as career.
DR.. Tennyson is an anatomist
and electronmicroscopist at CO.
1umbia University College Of
Physicians and Surgeons, New
York City. Under a National
Foundation March of Dimes
grant, she is working today to
determine what causes excess
fluid in the brain of infants,
one of the major birth defects
(hydrocephalus) with which
thousands of babies are born
every year in the United
States.
This dread disease leads to
gross enlargement of the head,
wasting away of the brain, loss
of mental powers-often death.
DR.. TennySon has suggested
that there is an advantage in
having women in some labora-
tory studies.
II think it fair to say that
in some fields Of scientific in
quify, women are better
equipped by nature than are
men. For instance, few will
argue that women aren't more
intuitive. In the laboratory,
they are more inclined to re-
spect a hunch, which is Just an
other word for disciplined i'm
Iagination and deduction. We
women shunch' because we are
determined to get \ realistic
answer.
Then / also think, she said,
sthat women workers in science
are inclined to be more patient
than men researchers. Perhaps
it's debatable, but / seem to
