At the same time, the Admins

Economist in the Office of Pro-

succeed Mr.. Snowden in Intergroup
Relations.
Both have been with the Housing
Agency for a number of years, and
both have extensive backgrounds in
the education field.
Biographical details of each fol-
lows.
Mr.. Snowden
He was born on April %, 1908,
in Montgomery County, Maryland.
He received an ALB. degree from
West Virginia State College, an
MA. degree from New York Uni
versity, and a PhD degree from In
diana University.
He began his career as an edu-
Gator. This included: assistant pro-
fessor of economics and govern
ment at Shaw University, Raleigh,
N. c.; acting director of extension
work, North Carolina Department
of Education; National Municipal
League Fellow, Institute of Poll
tics, Indiana University; and asso-
ciate professor and mead of the di-
vision of social sciences at billiard
University, New Orleans.
Mr.. McGraw came to Washing
ton in 1941 to work for the Federal
government, where he has remain
ed ever since. For q year he was
senior economic consultant to OPA
Administrator Leon Henderson.
When the National Housing Ag-

The pending constitutional am
endment does not touch on Wash
ington self-rule at all. It just gives
citizens the right to vote in quad
rennial federal elections.
1t is hard to see how the drive
for local self-rule, racial issue or
not, will fail to gain strength if
residents get the vote nationally.
The District will now have some
thing to bargain with-three elec-
toral presidential votes. Both poll
tical parties are apt to promise
home rule under this new lever
age.
No state from the Deep South
has voted for the new constitution
al amendment. Two border states,
Tennessee and Missouri, approved
the amendment. In Arkansas il
was introduced and specifically re-
jected.
Absence Of Southern support ap-
pears to stem from a feeling of
hostility to Negro voting in the
District. The amendment says
nothing about home rule, but il
may well be the next step. Certain
Southern members Of Congress who
dominate the committee which han
dies District Of Columbia affairs
show very little sympathy for the
city. The four ranking Democrats
of the committee are from South
Carolina. Mississippi, Virginia, ami
Georgia.
In the South's argument against
school integration, it is often
charged that the experiment has

takes form and shape. Hence the
ultimate responsibility is a per.
sonal one incumbent upon every
citizen who breathes the free air ol
this republic.
This person involvement
means that all Of US must not only
recognize our own rights. but with
corresponding vigor fulfill our
duties toward the society which
We strive to refashion in justice
and charity and toward every in
dividual in that society"
Archbishop Dearden commended
the Detroit Urban Leagues "A
years of service for interracial
justice, and also called attention
to the Church's concern for the
plight of the Negro.
He noted that in September,
1860, the Detroit Archdiocese
formed a Committee for Human
Relations. Its primary purpose"
he stated, "is to develop proper
attitudes among Catholics so that
they can approach an interracial
situation with a sane, Christian
spirit"
The Archbishop said the COM
mittee deals with the interracial
problem on three levels: the COM
munity, the neighborhood and the
parish.
He expressed regret that scien-
tific progress has outstripped ad-
vancement in human relations. He
said it is a tragedy that so much
time and effort has been expend-
ed in discussion of interracial
problems, and $50 little translated
into the practical order of our
daily living"

To Visit Pope And
King OF Denmark

New York - An audience with

King and Queen of Denmark, a tour
of the Holy Land and performances
for u. S. armed forces units will
highlight two-month concert tour
of Europe in early April for Cos
pei queen Mahalia Jackson it was
disclosed.
The tour of Europe will be the
second for Miss Jackson, who last
Saturday. March 1s), ended a wes-
tern tour of the United States with
performance in Santa Fe, New
Mexico. In 1852, she was in the
midst of a successful tour of the

halia, a deeply religious person.
Her audience with the Pope is
said to be an inspiration of Ed
Sullivan, the syndicated New York
columnist and television emcee.
Miss Jackson has appeared many
times on Sullivan's show.
She received the invitation to
visit with King Frederick of Den

Upgrading Needed

and quickly.
Upgrading Needed
1t was found that Negroes in
the old separate but equaP seq
regated schools of Washington
were a couple of years behind the
scholastic level in the white schools
Most of the difficulty since then
has been in upgrading the new inte-
grated schools at the higher level
School officials argue that this has
been almost achieved.
Washington has had checkered
career in government. Here is the
record:
Before 18O2-Local and federal
vote.
1802-Mayor named by Presi-
dent; City Council elected.
1812-Mayor named by council;
Council elected.
182O-70 - Mayor and Council
both elected.
1871-74 - "Territorial" govern
ment; Governor named by Presi-
dent; Council named by President;
House of Delegates elected locally;
voteless delegate in the United
States House of Representatives.
1874-Local suffrage terminated
1878 to present-Three commits
sioners named by President to run
city under Congress; no local or
federal suffrage.
Change of Pace
Under the present system Con-
gress periodically turns aside from
world or national affairs to con-
slider such matters as a muzzle law
in the District or similar petty or
dinances.
Of the local newspapers, the in
fluential Washington Post advo-
Gates complete home rule for the
District; the Washington Star
favors federal suffrage alone. The
third paper, the tabloid Scripps-
Howard News, has shown little in
terest either way.
Most observers feel Washington
government is honest and reason
ably efficient. Invisible strands of
power connect it with the local
board of trade.
One estimate sets 100000 as the
people of voting age in Washing
ton. Of these, some have absentee
votes in other states or the non
voters in the embassies. Perhaps
$50, 900 adults will actually get the
vote under the new amendment
the smallest number ever affected
by a constitutional change. Con-
gress started the amendment on it's
course June 16, 1860.
