on the African continent and in
the United States.
At Adds Ababa, Ethiopia, where
the Pan African Freedom Move
ment for East and Central Africa
met, delegates agreed to support
by all means at their disposal any
action taken by central Africans
to dissolve the Federation. Mean
while, in Chicago, H. w. Chitepo
of Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia,
condemned the Federation at a
University of Chicago law school
symposium on African affairs.
Chitepo, the first African lawyer
admitted to practice law in South
ern Rhodesia, said African resist
ance to the white-dominated Fed
Grafton is strong in Nyasaland and
in both Rhodesias
IN WHAT might be regarded as
anything but a warm salute to
both conferences, Sir Roy Wei
ensky, prime minister of the Fed
Grafton, branded pan-Africanism
as lone of the most blatant exer-
cises Of racialism the world has
ever seen" and forecast that it
would bring nothing but evil in
its train" Sir Roy, a leading foe
of the Africa for Africans con-
cept, delivered his attack as the
meeting at Adds Ababa was in
session and prior to the Chicago
meeting. But disregarding the
time factor, he seemed to be aware
of the beating that was in store
for his idea of partnership with
Africans in the Federation. Speak
ing in Salisbury, Sir Roy said he
knew that we in the Federation
are being subjected to tremendous
pressures, particularly by elements
of the Afro-Asian bloc and by
those who stand behind them" He
added that they even knew that
they could expect greater opposi-
ton in the months to come"
I'VE ARE being opposed" Sir
Roy said, mot because what we
are striving to bring about in the
Federation is impossible of achieve
ment or unjust to the people of
our country, not because we are
oppressors, but because this ele-
ment and its protege movement on
this continent, pan Africanism,
wants Africa for the Africans and
will not rest content until what
they call European domination is
swept from the whole of the con-
tinent."
THE FEDERATION, from all
practical points of view, is a lost
cause. There are African majorities
both in Nyasaland and in North
ern Rhodesia. Nyasaland has
5000, 900 Africans, 1900 Europeans

THE RIGHT GIFT
AFTER 10 YEARS

CONWAY, Ark. (AP).-
George Hartje came UP
with a welcome and thrifty
anniversary gift for his
wife-a college diploma.
And he got 1t for only
$3.50.
The story goes back TO
1852 when the future Mrs.
HsrtJe graduated, but not
quite, from Hendrix College
here. There was the matter
Of q library fine which the
school insisted must be
paid before a diploma was
given.
"She said that after all
her father had spent on
her education already. she
was ashamed 10 ask for
$3.50 MORE" Hartje re-
called.
The diploma went into
the college vault. Two
months later the Hartjes
we're wed and through 10
years OF marriage Hartje
from time 10 time heard
wistful comments from his
wife about the missing
sheepskin.
SO, when their anniver-
sary came up the other
day. the couple drove 10 the
college where Hartje anted
UP the $3.50. The diploma
was brought out, busted
off and conferred on Mrs.
Hartje.

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: Have

ceived q bill for an operation.
It gave me such a shock that
I'll probably be paying a psy-
chiatrist to put me on my

grudges a doctor his Just pay

advice you can give me.-Mr.

Most doctors are happy to
discuss finances Chats true
for medical specialists, gen.
eral practitioners, as well as
surgeons. I guess the reason
many doctors are not the
first to include a discussion
of expenses while talking
about the illness and treat
ment, Is that many patients
would label them as being
mercenary-caring more for
the money than for the pa
tient.
Therefore, I think it's the
patients job to bring up the
question first. When you and
the doctof-or his secretary

about finances, your con-
valescence will not be delayed

Now. as for your specific
question, Mr.. G., about what
you can do now. Medical
societies are jealous of their
good reputation. They would
be- the first to condemn a
practitioner who had made q
charge out Of line with estab-
lished rates. Therefore, they
have set up a committee to
which you can bring your
complaint. You will receive a
just hearing.
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I'm
thinking of changing doctors.
I called him up for some sim
pie advice over the tele-
phone, and he refused to
give it to me. Wouldn't you
think he'd be willing to tell
me what to take for simple

Mrs. A.
HOLD ONTO HIM. He
must be a good doctor. He
realizes that giving and tax
ing advice over the phone Is
sometimes like playing Rus
sian roulette.
Cramps2 How is he to
know that they are not the
only symptom Of acute ap-
pendicitis? He'd only be
guessing over the phone. For
correct diagnosis the doctor
needs to lay his hands on the
patient.
I may have prescribed an
aspirin over the phone for a
headache or cold in my day,
but even so I usually quail
fled this advice by adding
"If you don't feel better with
in a few hours, I'd like to
see you" I've told many in
terms and younger colleagues
never to get into the habit
Of diagnosing and treating by
phone.
The temptation is great, as
it's often q way Of not hav-
ing to make q house call or
squeezing in another ap-
pointment during q crowded
office schedule-but it's haz-
ardous. AS the patient. you
have the most to lose: your
health or your life. Unless
the doctor Is going to see you
in q few hours anyway, It's
safer not to rely on telephone
advice.

Bethlehem Scene
Thrills Visitor

The walk from Jerusalem
to Bethlehem is a little more
than five miles. 1t takes
about two hours and it starts
outside the Damascus Gate
around the wall of Jerusalem
and it goes down between
Gethsemane and Cedron and
on up past the Potter's Field,
the road lifting on the sides
of the Judean Hills all the
way so that, after a half
hour, the shepherds in the
valley look small and their
sheep appear to be gray dots
on a green field.
The shepherds Still live in
caves on the hillSides. They
scrape away the topsoil, as
their forbears did 1000 years
ago, and they expose the
cheesy strata Of soft stone
underneath. This is chiSeled
out until an apartment is
made in the hill. Within a
month, the air hardens the
stone to the consistency of
granite.
The shepherd and his fam
lily are never far from the
sheep. The flocks move slowly
across the valley floor, chew
ing the stubby grass, lifting
their heads sometimes to
watch the shepherd. Occa-
sionally, two flocks merge and
Solomon could not tell which
sheep belong to which shep-
herd. But when the men part
company, only the proper
sheep follow each shepherd,
so that it is never necessary
to count the animals. except
after new lambs are born.
BETHLEHEM is at an alti-
tude of $500 feet. 1t sits
astride the ancient road be-
tween Jerusalem and Egypt.
There are 1000 people who
live there, hardly any more
than when David made it his
home, and brought his neph-
ews-Joab, Abishai and Asa
hel-to live there. Today, like
the old section Of Jerusalem,
it is part of the Hashemite
Kingdom of Jordan. but
Jerusalem has seen many
conquerors, many flags.
Where the sacred inn once
stood, there is a Christian
church and, beneath it, the
cave where Jesus was born
among the animals. The
church is fought over by the
Greek Church, the Armenian
Church and the Roman
Catholics, exactly as the
same sects struggle over prior
rights to the Church Of the
Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

DOWN IN THE CAVE,
there is a replica of the man

overhead. The infant, in
stone, lies in a box trough.
The animals, in stone, stand
around the perimeter, star

tyr, who examined this place
in AID. $50, said that Jesus

In the marble floor there

Bible. 1t was here that he

taught Jerome at night. It

WORD BY WORD, phrase
by phrase, he translated the
Old Testament into Latin,
then moved on to the New
Testament. Jerome lived in a
room next to the manger
and, when in doubt about a
phrase, was close enough to
the Bible scenes to make
short trips to compare the
words with the place. Jerome
was a penitential monk. and,
although ordained as a priest,
never celebrated mass.
Near this spot, 1000 years
ago, stood a small synagogue.
In it, on January /, st. Jo-
