Wilhelmina of Holland had been a
Princess in retirement for IA years when
she died this week at the age of 80.
But for half=century prior to 1948 she
had been the Queen of the Netherlands
and its great overseas possessions. She
was, in many ways, the personification
of her people-dignified, courageous and
thrifty.
1t was late in her reign that Will
helmina faced her two greatest crises
as Queen. With her country being
.overrun by enemy arms in early 1910,
she went to friendly England to exercise
command of her people at home and
abroad, and their loyalty to her showed
through their bravery everywhere. Her
perception and sense of the tides of his
tory appeared later, when she recognized
the irresistible forces of independence
and took the initiative in declaring In
donesia, one of her country'S greatest
sources of earnings, equal with the
homeland under her crown.
She was a fine Queen and a fine
woman.

made such a difference that now the
clubs directorate, after mature consid-
Grafton, has decided aH-program inte-
grafton should be introduced at once.
Everything that has happened since the
organizations decline tends to support
this point of view.
With proper guidance, there is good
hope the club can rebuild beyond its
peak membership of the mid-50s, and
provide for thousands of youngsters the
wholesome advantages of sports, voca-
tional guidance and summer camps.
Then there is reason to believe better
racial relations start with the formative
years.
In another phase Of the program,
the District Commissioners have decided
to let policemen again solicit club funds,
a practice that was dropped during the
segregation haSSle. This is method that
is open to serious question. In future
as bright and promising as this, there
must be other ways of raising an abund-
anee of money.

Turning Point?

Although they may prove to be more
interesting than significant, the talks
between President Kennedy and First
Deputy Premier Mikoyan-who is no
stranger to our town-promiSe to be
useful for both the United States and
the Soviet Union.
They should help, for one thing,
to clarity and perhaps settle some of
the issues that still complicate the Gu
ban situation to potentially dangerous
degree. And beyond that, judging froEa
what the Kremlin itself has been Sug-
gesting, they could conceivably lead to
a trustworthy detente-a genuine re-
Taxation of tensions between our two
countries in sensitive areas on every
continent of the globe, including partic-
ularly the explosive city of Berlin.
At this point, in any case, it seems
pertinent to recall that Secretary of
State RuSk recently gave voice to the
rather hopeful SurmiSe that I'VE are on
the front edge of significant and per-
hapS unpredictable events, period in
which some of the customary patterns
of thought will have to be reviewed and
PCAA0Ro ACNAoCd q PAOOCoo OAldO Wn4 al
feet governments in all parts of the
world" This SurmiSe, moreover, has re-
ceiyed considerable support from Mos
COW, where numerous organs of propa-
ganda have been harping on the theme
that mankind may be at a crucial "turn-
ing point" and that there is a good
possibility of establishing firm peace
with history y-making American-Soviet
agreements on wide variety of perilous
issues.
Considering the huge difficulties
that continue to plague the USSR's in
dustrial and agricultural economy, it
may well be that Premier Khrushchev
and his colleagues want long breathing
spell in the cold war. If that is the fact
Of the matter, and If Moscow really has
fears of Red China's long-range objec-
tives, then the United States can be
reasonably confident of having better
relations with the SovietS, and of avoid
ing war over places like Berlin.
All this is purely speculative, of
course, but it has Importance. If Mr..
Mikoyan has genuinely sound bill of
goods to present to the President, there
may be a real thaw in the cold war
AS Of now, however, 1t is advisable to
keep fingers crossed.

Boys Club Comeback

1t had to be more than coincidence
that caused the DISTRICT juvenile crime
rate to rise 25 per cent in 1860, only a
couple of years after the Metropolitan
Police Boys Club went into eclipse over
the integration issue. In it's original
form, the club had grown to $4,000
members and nine branches But when
the board of directors decided to with
stand deSegregation pressure, the gov
ernment withdrew it's support, funds
dropped off and membership declined
to 5000 boys in two branches.
Almost everyone experienced sense
of loss in the withering of the fine or
ganization former Police Superintendent
Ernest w. Brown had formed in 1884
Major Browns idea was to give young
sterS the feeling that police were their
friends instead of natural enemies. The
plans efficacy is borne out by the rec
ords, and by the tremendous early-day
response of businessmen contributors.
Then came the changing social pat
tern that inevitably reached the boys
clubs, and their clubhouSes on govern
ment property. A few more years have

No Coins to JinqIe

Ii prODdDIy Will COLIle DIS d surprise
to no one that the Treasury Department
has discovered coins rank high among
the items most people would rather have
the most of. What is surprising, however,
is information that (1) small coins are
becoming scarcer every day and (2) sill
yer dollars are rapidly gaining in popu-
larity.
With the Christmas shopping season
under way, shoppers and merchants are
finding it increasingly tough to keep
together enough coins to jingle. Noting
the enlarged use of coins for sales taxes
and vending machines, Federal Reserve
banks call the shortage the most serious
in a decade, and are even rationing
member banks to so or Is per cent of
normal quotas.
Ironically, the Treasury has every
thing it needs to step up coin production
except money. 1t would be simple
matter to have the Denver and Phila-
delphia mints turn out pennies, nickelS,
dimes and quarters on an overtime basis,
but there are no funds available for the
work. Congress failed to pass $500, 900
appropriation for that purpose. Now the
Treasury is advising against boarding
while it devises way to step up the
mintage. Amazingly, the shortage exists
despite production of billion coins in
the past two years.
Meanwhile, an interesting develop
ment is the growing popularity of the
silver dollar which, for practical pur-
poses, seemed to have gone out of style
with the pocket watch. Used to be, only
Montana and Nevada were seriously
aware of the big, shiny biscuit But last
fiscal year the Mint shipped 33 million
of them to Federal Reserve Banks, an
increase of % million in three years,
which means that more Christmas stock
ings are going to be delightfully."- weighted
this year.

education, at least in some
degree. 1t is also a problem
because many people con-
tinue to believe that the pub
lie schools and their support
are the responsibility Of the
States and communities and
not of the Federal Govern
ment. They argue that if the
Federal Government starts
financing the public schools.
the Government win end by
controlling the schools. :
President Kennedy sought
to establish a Department Of
Urban Affairs by executive
order and was turned down by
vote of the House in the last
Congress. In the new Con-
Ogress, he likely win seek the
passage of legislation for this
purpose, and here again, he
will be opposed by those mem
bers who are against a fur
ther concentration of Gov
ernment in Washington.
Civil Rights Moves
Pressures for further civil
rights legislation are expect
ed. 1t is not clear yet wheth-
er an attempt to strengthen
the Senate cloture rule will
be made. The liberals have
been demanding that cloture
"a closing Of debate-Shall
be imposed by a majority
vote. This has been defeated
many times. and it viii likely
be defeated again. Indeed,
the very fact that the pres
ent cloture rule was used eff
fectively during the last ses-
sion of Congress to bring a
vote on the administrations
satellite communications bill,
is now being advanced as a
reason why there is no need
to change the existing rule.
One thing seems certain
such an attempt might result
in a prolonged contest at a
time when there is much to
be done. Much of the steam
back Of the proposal for q
change in the cloture rule
stems from demands for civil
rights legislation. The ad-
ministration, however, has
made great gains, it claims,
in the matter of civil rights
with the laws now on the
books. In addition, the civil
rights legislation was put
through with the existing
rules of the Senate.
The stumbling block for
the New Frontiersmen in the
S7th Congress has been q
coalition of Republicans and
conservative Democrats. In
the new Congress, gains by
the Democrats in the Senate
will strengthen the Presidents
hand. In the House, the
pattern will remain much
what it was, with the coali-
ton able to hamstring or de-
feat some of the Kennedy
legislation. 1t remains to be
seen whether the Presidents
added strength - personal
strength. due to the election
result-will be sufficient to
brush aside the conservative
coalition. Much may depend
upon whether liberal" Re-
publicans will side with Ken
nedy legislative proposals.

Thanks From Guam

AS a result OF the recent
typhoon on Guam, about 80
per cent of the local resi-
dents are without homes.
Clothing, food and other ne
cessities of life were in great
demand.
The Guam Territorial So
ciety. in conjunction with
the Navy Departm e mt,
United States Marine Corps,
and Department Of Com
merce, conducted a drive to
obtain clothing to be sent to
Guam. About $4,000 pounds
of good usable clothing were
collected. The response Of
the kind people of the Wash
ington Metropolitan area was
most gratifying. The Navy
Department made available
an aircraft through Hand
clasp Project" Fire stations
in the area and the Navy
Medical Center at Bethesda
were used as pickup CEN
ters.
The plane, filled to capac-
city with its much-needed
cargo. left Andrews Air Force
Base November 10, 1862.
The drive was a real sue
cess. Its success was largely
attributed to the tremendous
support given by press, ra-
dio and television facilities.
Through this medium, the

and especially the people Of
Guam would like to extend

the speedy and unobjective
decisions made by several
responsible adults were prob
ably just as foolish. If these
decisions are adhered a to,
little profit will be gained by
even a few, but much is to
be lost by all.
Do the parents, teachers,
police department, and many
other S hool organizations
wish to admit that they are
unable to handle a handful
of unruly kids? Well, if these
championship games between
public and Catholic schools
are abolished for one year or
or even for one month, this
is what you are admitting.
I am sure that a majority
of the children of the Cath
olic schools and probably
none of the children of the
public schools want this.
1t is unfortunate that a
few simple precautions to
prevent the disturbances
were not implemented. The
police department probably
did too little too late. But
why blame anyone? 1t hap
pened. Where do we go from
here?
The police department
might be advised that if
these games are abolished,
their job may become more
difficult. The official asso-
ciated with the Armory Board
might be told that he is not
the only person paying for
the stadium. Catholic school
coaches not wishing tn cir
teams to play public school
teams might wish to make
room for a successor by re-
signing.
I only pray that the res
ponsible adults will begin
acting like adults. If they
fail to act with sincerity, i'm
partiality, intelligence and
objectivity regarding the ac-
