Asking Discrimination

The National Association for the Advance
ment OF Colored People is barking up the
wrong administrative tree in calling on the
Portland School Board to take measures to cor
rect what it calls racial segregation in num-
Der of Portland public schools.
1t is true that five near-east-side Portland
elementary schools have a performance of
Negro pupils. ranging from about SO per cent
at Eliot down to IS per cent at Holiday. But
this is not the fault of, nor is it properly the
concern of, the School Board. The board would,
indeed, be subject to severe censure if it had
drawn its school area boundaries in a positive
effort to segregate' Negro children It has not
done SO, and the NAACP has not suggested
that it has done so. But what the NAACP is
apparently asking is that the board deliberately
redraw its boundaries or arrange transportation
to reduce the number of Negro children in the

principle, discrimination on the basis of race
The source of the NAACP complaint is the
housing pattern and the existence of a concen-
tration Of Negro families in what has popularity
been called the Williams Ave- district. This is
not a School Board problem
The schools already have ben called upon to
solve more than their rightful share of COM
munity problems. Surely they cannot be ex-
pected to be the instrument in eliminating the
evils of housing segregation. This is one argu-
ment against what the NAACP is asking: an
other is that the NAACP is treading on danger

States found it necessary to step
into the island's n1uddled affairs
on occasion to safeguard Ameri-
can interest to bolster the Gu
ban government, or to restore
a measure of economic stability.
But under the "good neigh
bor' policy Of Franklin Roose
welt and Corden Hull. a new
treaty was written with Cuba in
1894 - and the United States
gave up its documented right to
protect Cuba from internal col
lapse or external aggression.
Now, in the face of a Soviet
flow Of arms, equipment, and
personnel into Cuba, the United
States must turn to the Monroe
Doctrine for justification IF and
WHEN the Kennedy administra-
ton decides to meet the situa-
ton.
That firm Doctrine, laid down
in 1923 and presumably still a
part of American foreign policy,
served notice on the nations of
Europe Including Russia, by the
way that the Western Henri
sphere was no longer subject to
colonization or oppression by
European powers.
The Monroe Doctrine was not
calculated to please European
powers, W h e her they were
friends or enemies of the United
States. 1t was designed - and
received ~ as blunt warning
that this country would regard
any future interference with
American affairs as an action
"unfriendly" to the Unite d
States.
Until recently, the Monroe
Doctrine has meant something,
because it was backed up with
national determination to see
that it was observed. Today,
that determination seems much
more in evidence among our
people than in our government
in Washington.
The people Of the United States
are ready for some positive &C
ton to meet the threat from
Cuba whether it be taken in
the name. Of the Monroe Doc
trine or in simple self-defense.
Self-preservation is as much a
law of nations as it is Of nature.

face up to the necessity Of pro-
tecting itself = and the freedom

in a drama never seen before in the his
tory of this nation.
The Governor in statement, which
was not aired by TV, Though the Presi-
dent had the opportunity of speaking
to the nation) warned:
Gentlemen, YOU are trampling on the
sovereignty of this great state and depriyng
it of every vestige of honor and respect as
a member of the Union of States You are
destroying the Constitution OF his great
nation May God have mercy on your souls
Mississippi will continue to fight the Meredith
Case and all similar cases through the courts
to restore the sovereignty of the state and
constitutional government"
Superior numbers of fighting men
have overwhelmed Governor Ross Bar
nett, but his defeat does not prove that
his position is wrong or the principles
of selfgovernment cannot ultimately
prevail He has made a gallant stand
for the Constitution as it was written
and conceived by the trainers of that
document.
Nearly 100 years ago, a great gen
eral, great man, and great patriot
General Robert E. Lee surrendered to
overwhelming military force, but the
principles for which he and his gallant
army had fought live on They will not
go away, so long as the United States
Of America remains republic, gov
eminent of the people, by the people
and for the people. Somewhere along
the line we expect these questions to be
resolved. We are not yet willing to be-

ture, etc. to definite friends or
relatives. He can do the things
that you want done in the way
that you would do them your
self, without litigation fears.
Your estate may be saved thou
sands of dollars because your
executor can be given time
through your will to use his best
judgment and consult with other
people, and thus avoid liquidat-
ing your assets hurriedly or dur
ing a time of depression.
Wills Permit Special Provisions
Only through will can you
arrange to leave money in trust
so that the bereaved can have
the full income for life and then
have the principal go to the
children or other chosen people.
You can, if you wish, distribute
your operty in unequal
amounts mong your heirs
where the need of some may be
greater than that of others. It
should be clearly recognized
too, that it could take two wears
or more for a court-appointed
executor to settle your affairs,
and your heirs might have little
or nothing to live on during this
period. An executor can be au-
thorized in your will to disburse
a certain amount each month to
your wife for instance. pending
final settlement. This can be in
creased if there is illness or un-
expected trouble. Changes in
your will can be made by you
at any time by adding proper
codicils which your lawyer will
advise you on.

man and woman should leave
something to his or her church,
especially since religion is still
the only hope for our unsettled
and disturbed world. Practically
everything of value that we
have = democracy, schools, hos
pitals, personal freedom = we
owe to the work of the church.
So don't forget your church in
your will.
Reputable Lawyer Important
urge you not to try to make
your own will to save a few dol
lars. Find a reputable lawyer,
give him a complete list of the
gifts you want to make, and
designate whom you want for an
executor. Any good lawyer (he
should be a resident of your
State) will be able to put your
wishes into clear legal shape. He
will tell you to have the will
signed by three witnesses who
watch you affix your signature;
preferably witnesses should not
include those mentioned in the
document. He will explain any
technicalities to you, particu-
larry as to the laws in your
state.
1t is a good idea to have at
least three carbon copies of your
will so that your suggested ex-
ecutor can familiarize himself
with your intentions. One can be
put in your safe-deposit box for
your own personal reference.
and one can remain with your
lawyer. The original should be
left with your bank and a re-
ceipt therefor obtained. Even if
you have not very much money
at this time. you should make a
will. It will turn out to be q fine
investment for you.

Cuba Has Come Full Circle

The history of Cuba has come
fun circle. Once more this. island
has become the staging area for
foreign nations interference in
the Western Hemisphere.
More than four centuries ago,
Spanish conQuiStadors were US
ing Cuba as the base of opera
tons for penetration into the
rest of the Americas - for the
discovery of Yucatan, for Cortes'
invasion Of Mexico, and for De-
Soto's exploration of Florida.
Today, Cuba is being built into
Soviet base from which the
Communists may launch psyche
logical, economic, and even mill
tary operations against the free
nations of North, Central, and
South America.
There is bitter irony IN the
fact that the United States -
which gave Cubans their first
feel of freedom should now
be the principal target Of the
Communist abuse and hatred
which comes from present-day
Cuba.
And there is equal irony in the
fact that this powerful nation Of
ours = which drove Spain out of
Cuba to the refrain of "Remem-
Der the Maine" IN should now be
tip-toeing through the tulips in
the face of much graver threat
to the security of the United
States.
And there is still more irony
in the situation. For the United
States voluntarily gave up - in a
good will gesture" of 1884 = a
guaranteed right to intervene in
Cuban affairs e. for the pres
ervation of Cuban independence,
the maintenance of a govern
ment adequate for the protection
Of life, property, and individual
liberty, and for discharging the
obligations with respect to Cuba
mpos e d by the Treaty of
Paris
! This guarantee was an element
of the 1901 Plat Amendment to
a Congressional appropriations
bill. Not only did this amend
ment become a part Of U. S.
Cuban relations ~ it also be-
came a part of the Cuban con-
stitution. It furthermore provid-
ed that the government of Cuba
would neither make any treaty
by which Cuba would give up its
independence, nor allow any for
eign power to obtain control over
any of its territory.

Plat Amendment the United

Rule By Force

JAMES Meredith, a Negro, has been
y forced on the campus of the Uni
versity of Mississippi by sheer military
power by order of the President of the
United States. BY the time this is read
he may have been enrolled in the Uni
versity, the first time that an applicant
for state school has been forced into
a University by order of the President
OF the United States, with the over
whelming force of U. S. Marshals, and
threat Of bayonets of assembled U. S.
troops.
We suppose James Meredith is quail
lied enthusiastically to become as student
at Ole Miss. However, we have seen no
discussion of this point, and there have
been rumors to the contrary The fact
that he is Negro, bent upon forcing
his way into this university with the
blessing of the NAACP, the federal
courts, the justice department and the
executive branch of the government sets
new precedent in the United States.

BabsOn Discusses Wills

BABSON PARK. MASS. Oct.
l - 1t is the personal duty of
every adult man and woman to
make a will. Most people realize
this baslcally, and yet l am con-
stantly surprised by the number
OF intelligent folk who lust
don't get around to it," Nobody
likes to think about death. and
still one cannot look at the daily
newspapers W bout realizing
how many reach an untimely
end through automobile smash
ups and other hazards of civil
cation. You may live to a very
ripe old age, but you might die
tomorrow. Let me tell you why
think it is all-important to pro-
tect your estate by a will, what
ever your age.
Select Your Own Executor
A will gives you the opportllni-
ty OF choosing in advance a
friendly executor rather than
having some judge appoint an
acquaintance of his with whom
you might not be satisfied. If
you die intestate and the court
has to disburse your estate it
can run up a lot of costs, includ-
ing the necessity for a bond.
Most of these costs can be
avoided by making your will
and appointing your own execu-
tor. Under some circumstances,
your executor can give your
beneficiaries securities or prop
erty at a fair value instead of
cash.
Your own executor, also, can
use discretionary powers that a
court appointee would not pos
sess. He can. for example. de-
eide what property to sell, and
follow out the directions in your
will as to the disposition Of Ger
tain articles of clothing, furni-
