NAACP Endorses
Health Plan For
counfrY's AGED

New York. - President Ken
nedy's proposal for a health in
surance plan for the aged through
the Social Security system has
been endorsed by the National
Association for the Advancement
of Colored People.
In support of the plan the AS
sociation's national Board of Direc-
tors passed a resolution, at its reg
ular monthly meeting here on Feb.
10, calling for enactment of the
pending measure.
The Board also went on record
in opposition to the construction Of
the proposed Kinzua Dam on the
site Of the Seneca Indian reserva-
ton in upstate New York. Con-
struction of the dam on that site
would require the dislocation Of the
Seneca Nation from their ancestral
lands guaranteed to them in per-
petuity by a treaty with the United
States signed in 1874.
The Board resolution suggested
the construction of the dam on an
alternative site deemed equally fea-
sible by engineers and requiring no
breach Of treaty and raising no
major relocation problems.

Thus, the idea Of the Conference
of the African and Malagasy Heads
of States, meeting in Lagos was to
bridge the gulf between Monrovia
and Casablanca and have a con-
ference at which all Independent
African States would be represent
ed and for this Conference to make
a realistic appraisal Of the prob
lens Of inter-African cooperation,
and to attempt to find realistic
solutions to them.
Every effort was made to win
the cooperation of the Casablanca
States. Sir Abubakar Tafawa Bal
eva, the Prime Minister of the
Federation of Nigeria, paid a state
visit to Guinea where he was royal
ly received and he came back with
the impression that Guinea would
certainly attend the Lagos Summit.
There was every reason to believe
that all the Casablanca States
would come and that there would
be a full conference of all % In
dependent African States. Egypt
said it was definitely coming, al

had a good position.
The day finally came when a
group of young women took the
test. The group included the girls
and when the girls re-
ceived their grades the only two
who had passed the examination
were the two high school grad
yates who had graduated from
first rate business school. Their
supervisor did not even pass the
test.
The girls compared notes and
found that the questions the col
lege graduates missed were little
tricky ones that only the two who
had graduated from a business
school saw through. The girls who
passed and were upgraded did not
gloat over their success. Their
former supervisor had always
treated them well. They did their
work and she was satisfied. A few
OF the girls let the two winners
know they felt quite unhappy
about the turn of events. They
never dreamed these two would
pass the examination. Their pride
in their college diplomas made
them a little bitter for awhile
but then their sense of fair play
made them congratulate the girls
and tell them how much they would
miss them when they left for their
new jobs in Washington, D. c.
The office girls gave a going
away party and one of them said
she was going to go to business
school even if she had to go to
night school so she would not miss
out on any future chance for a
promotion!
The margin. of difference be-
tween knowing all the answers and
thinking you know them all is
small. Never be too sure but make
room for that small margin that
matters.

stances but in ourselves.-Anon.

NEVER BE TOO SURE YOU
KNOW THE ANSWER

Several girls had worked to-
gether in an office for years. Then
a notice was posted telling them
when the next examinations were
to be given for a position that
would pay those who passed it,
higher salary and a chance for a
promotion in rank.
Among the girls were several
college graduates and two who had
a high school education plus
business course diploma. The col
lege graduates were so sure they
had nothing to worry about that
they told the two business school
girl graduates they had better
study hard so they would pass the
test.
Arlene's family urged her to
study but she said, mo, she wasn't
going to worry herself trying to
study. She would take the examin-
alton and if she passed, it was al
right, and if she didn't she still

effort, combining the time, interest
and devotion of Negroes and whites
in producing a worthy project.
The author Prof. Earl Spangler,
who "in spare time" is 1t. Col. in

his preface and acknowledgements:
THE purpose of this study is to
provide a fairly comprehensive, al

his problems, accomplishments, and
struggle for equality. 1t covers a
largely untouched subject and it is
hoped will furnish the guide for
further research in this field"
Thus the author points up the
fact that there is still a wealth of
material not covered by the book
which is still awaiting some
scholar to put into shape so that
the public will have additional
information.
The book, 1.-THE Negro In Mime
sota," by Earl Spangler the manner
in which it was prepared and pub
Hshed may be accurately called one
of the highlghts of progress for
the Negro community for 1861.
Those who have read the thrill
ing account of the Negro pioneers
and their struggles will Jingle and
feel proud of those hardy souls who
came North" to face the wintery
blasts and made a place for others
to follow them.
Every Negro home in which
there are children should obtain
a copy of this book for their own.
Every white family in the state
ought to have it to widen out their
information and image of the Ne
gro which is often incomplete and
distorted, one of the leaders Of the
state said recently after reading
The Negro In Minnesota" a real
evidence of progress in 1861.
Among the so states only In

Two States Fight
Ohio City BIuze

POMEROY, Ohio, Nov. "a
(AP) .-Wrecking crews pulled
down the walls of three build
ings in this Ohio River city
Friday night after the build
ing were swept by fire. Damage
was estimated at 100000.
The blaze - fought several
hours by more than 100 fire
fighters from Ohio, West Vir-
GINA and the Coast Guard
caused evacuation of Is pa
tients from Meigs General Hos
pital. Firemen feared the hos
pital would be engulfed by the
flames, but it received lscorched
walls and was otherwise I'M
damaged.
The fire apparently was
started by sparks from a weld
er's torch in a three-story brick
building occupied by MeigS
Equipment Co. and an Ohio
aid for the aged office.
Flames spread quickly to a
six = family frame apartment
building next door, destroying
possessions of the four fam
lilies occupying the building

Cubes Bid for
AGENTS Release

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y,
Nov. "a (AP).-The United Ma
tons passed on to the United
States delegation today a Gu
ban request that the U. N. OBJ
tain the release of Roberto
Santiesteban Casanova, q. a
characterization attache held
on United States charges.
Santiesteban is one Of three
Cuban nationals arrested by the
FBI last week end and charged
with conspiracy to commit sab
otage. He is to plead in Federal
District Court Tuesday. and
will claim diplomatic immunity
from arrest.
The Cuban delegation con-
tends that Santiesteban has
diplomatic immunity because
the State Department issued
him a diplomatic visa for his
entrance into the United States
october 3 and thereby recog-
nized him as a diplomat.
The United States delegation
points out that under the l947
United States-U. N. agreement
regarding U. N. headquarters
a lower member of a delegation
can get such immunity only BY
agreement of his government
the United States Government
and the U. N. secretary general
1t says SantieSteban had not
received it before he was ar
rested last week end.

Belgian Proposes
Drug Deformity
Mercy Killing Bill

BRUSSELS, Belgium, Nov. "a
(AP A Communist legislator
has offered a bill in the House
of Representatives that would
legalize mercy killing of babies
malformed by the drug thali-
domide.
Thalidomide has been blamed
for the deformaties of thou
sands Of babies born in Europe
to mothers who had taken the
drug during pregnancy. The
bill introduced by Deputy Gas
ton Moulin, one of five Com
munist members of the House,
also would legalize abortion fol-
pregnant women known to have
taken the drug.
The bill must be studied by
various House committees be-
fore 1t can be debated publicly
and it seemed unlikely that it
will get out of committee.
Two weeks ago, a jury in
Liege acquitted a mother and
four other persons of the mercy
killing of her thalidomide-de-
formed daughter.
