Infegrdtion Of New
Orleans CdfhoIicS
Schools Successful

New Orleans (ANP) - The
school year has ended here and a
historic chapter has been written
because this was the first year of
Indignation in Catholic schools of
the New Orleans archdiocese.
Many Civil War" thinkers rea-
soned that if financial support was
cut down, mainly through reduced
Sunday collections, the church
would have to yield.
But the great majority of Cath
oics did not follow this strategy
to defeat school Indignation. This
is shown by the fact that the an
nual seminary program collection
of Easter Sunday produced $215,-
224.19 while the year before it
amounted to about $4,000.
General acceptance of integra-
ton is further reflected in school
attendance.
Catholic school officials expect
ed to lose some students but in
stead high school enrolment reach
ed record 16,4O2. The 1887 al
ready enrolled in school of all
grades next fan are expected to be
increased by kindergarten and first
grade registrations. At this time
a year ago, 1854 were enrolled
During the year there have been
no reports of conflict between Ne
gro and white pupils.
New Orleans public schools are
in their third year of grade-a-year
Indignation. They admitted 104
Negroes. All grades in Catholic
schools were integrated, with only
one Negro in some, but up to 80 in
others. Nearly 200 were enrolled in
what had been all-white Catholic
schools.
A few parents withdrew their
children from schools as Negroes
entered. Most of those Withdrawn
enrolled in public schools or the
many private schools that have
sprung up. The state provides up
to $500 a year for students at
tending private nonsectarian
schools.
Parents demonstrated at a Cath
ole elementary school in West
wego, La, across the Mississippi
from New Orleans, and enrolment
fell to about one-third.
At Buras, La, go miles below
this city, more violent demonstra-
tons closed the doors of Our Lady
of Good Harbr school. This is in
Plaquemines Parish Ccunty) where
Leander Perez was excommunicat-
ed last year for his opposition. At
Belle Chase, in the same parish,
Catholic priest charged in April
that he was struck by parent in
argument over an integrated in
struction class. This case is now in
the courts.
With most white parents integ-
ration is not popular but they have
accepted it.

INJURED TRYING TO

ALARAMA DEMONSFpAT0D

Gadsden, Ala. (ANP) - A Ne
gro here last week tripped and fell
over his united shoe laces and
broke his arm.
While fitting his arm for a cast,
the doctor asked him why he
hadn't tied his shoe laces.
We'll, it's like this" he said.
You know about those civil rights
demonstrations, don't you"
Yes" replied the medic, but
1 don't see the connection"

Highway Program

Please accept my thanks
for the two recent excellent
editorials on the Federal-aid
highway program. 1t is in
deed heart-warming when a
newspaper of The Stars sta
ture has such a perceptive
understanding of the high
way program.
We in the highway field
are excited about the life
saving potential of the Inter
state Highway System. To us,
the opportunity to save the
lives of 5000 persons who
otherwise could peris h an
nually on conventional roads
makes the entire progra m
worth while, and also makes
1t essential that we press for
ward with the completion of
the system as swiftly as hui
manly possible.
Your hard-hitting editorial
on ugly Signs" should help
In the battle to keep the in
terstate system from deteri-
Grating into a billboard jun
gle, as has happened with
many other roads in the Ma
ton. Construction of the sys-
tenn is costly. and it would be
illogical not to protect the

The So-called American missile gap,
which in truth has never existed, now
has been bridged completely by Brit
aims Institute Of Strategic Studies.
What the Institute reports is that the
United States, by the time the new
year rolls around, will be armed with
no fewer than ATS combat ready
intercontinental ballistic rockets, as
against only about 100 in the Soviet
Union. Actually, The Stars authorita-
tive sources indicate that these figures
are too low; they should be raised to
roughly 585 for us, and upwards of $50
for the Russians.
At time when international ten
sionS may be building up again, this
is an altogether reaSsuring statistic,
the more so because the United States,
wholly apart from home-based ICBMs,
is equipped with % very large num-
berS Of Short-range missiles, (2) 1900
strategic bomberS and (3) 10 PolariS
submarines, each armed with 16 Su-
premely deadly and accurate nuclear
rockets. America, if the crunch comes,
can take care of herself. And the
Kremlin knows it despite all the Soviet
talk about magical antimiSSile missile.
In some respects the United States
may seem to be crazy, mixed-up
country to observers overseas. But the
men of the Kremlin will be doing them
selves a favor If they regard us as quite
sane and ready to fight-come what
may-on the side of what we consider
to be our vital interests. This, of course,
includes Berlin and our access to it.

Mr.. Hays Waiter

Ohio's Representative Hays is a
Democrat Sturdily devoted to safeguard
ing the taxpayers dollar And he seemed
upset when some point was made of
the fact that he had taken the head
waiter Of the House of Representatives
dining room with him on a trip to Paris.
With all expenses paid, of course.
Mr.. Hays has been quoted as say
ing that he would "hate to think this
Is racial" He needn't bother himself on
this score. For the point is not that the
head waiter, Ernest Petinaud, is colored.
As matter Of fact, we doubt that any
one would have thought of that If Mr..
Hays hadn't brought it up.
People are curious about two things.
What Is the function of any head waiter
from Washington at meeting in Paris
Of parliamentarianS from the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization? And why
would Mr.. Hays be the man to take him
along?
Mr. Hays attended the NATO meet
ing as a member of the House Foreign
Affairs Committee. But, as a sort of
coincidence, he is also an active men,
Der of the House Administration Com
mittee, which rides herd on congress
Sional junkets.
In times past, Mr.. Hays has taken
a lively interest in spending abroad by
State Department people. He has said
that 100000 was too much to spend for
an Ambassadors residence in Cyprus,
pointing out that Billie Sol Estes man
aged to get by in $15O,000 house. He
has deplored the fact that American
taxpayers were footing the bill for Off
cial salaries in the Congo He's that
sort Of no-nonSense fellow.
And the question that just sort of
occurred to some people was: Why
should Mr.. Hays, of all people, take
a head waiter to Paris?

God Bless EN-

Women are irrational, that's all
there is to that. Their heads are full
of cotton, hay and rags"
The voice was the voice of Henry
Higgins but the words are the words
of wisdom. Never more so than now
when a woman is presenting herself
as a candidate for President.
Never mind that the woman is
Margaret Chase Smith. Never mind
that Mrs. Smith is one Of the orna-
mentS and lights of the Senate-which,
for that matter, isn't saying as much
as it once would have been. There is
principle involved. She's a woman;
and women are not, never have been
and never will be suited to an office
like the presidency.
Mrs Smith to one side, women are
irrational. They make left-hand turns
from right-hand lanes. They are in
capable of graSping the elementary
principle of maintaining some remote
relationship between income and outgo.
They eat pineapple and cottage cheese
for lunch. There isn't one Of them who
has ever found out how to put the
cap back on a simple, ordinary tube of
tooth paste.
Can the American electorate be so
bereft of sense that they really want
one of these people for Chief Executive?
Certainly not.
The Founding Fathers, in their pro-
found wisdom, anticipated Just such an
emergency. To form a more perfect
Union and to insure domestic tran
guilty, the Constitution, speaking of
the President, says that he shall hold
his office for four years.
Clearly, no she can be a he. The
whole idea is unconstitutional.

through IA. Since this is
where the bulk of the scien-
tific community is employed,
it is fairly obvious what the
results will be. This bill can
only negate rather than at
tain the Presidents detectives.
I am an engineer with a
masters degree. I contacted
two local commercial firms
the day the House commit
tees pay bill was released. The
results were job offers with
pay increases Of 1896 and
$1,525 over the amount I
would receive under the
House Bill. I have accepted
the first offer.
I sincerely regret leaving

should thank the House Civil
Service Committee for prod
ding me on to a better Job.

Funeral Costs

The current flood OF arti-
cles, etc., regarding the cost
of dying may have a desir-
able result in getting the
general public to consider its
funeral plans in advance and
without the stress and emo
ton Of an actual bereave-
ment.
However, many Of these
articles create an unfor-
tunately erroneous picture Of
funeral problems. For ex-
ample, in your article on
November 4, 1868, you imply
that the officiating minister
at a funeral demands q fee
for his services. The S. H.
Hines Company directs over
1000 funerals a year, and
has occasion frequently to
call upon the clergy OF all
denominations when the de-
ceased has no regular affilia-
ton. In such cases we have
found such clergy to be most
generous with their time,
even refusing any offering at
all when they felt that the
family could Ill afford it.
Never in our experience has
any clergyman Of any de-
nomination demanded an Of
fering or insisted upon being
recompenSed for his services.
Again, we welcome con-
structive criticism, and a
careful scrutiny of funeral
customs and costs by any
fair = minded individual or
group of individuals.

President, s. H. Hines Co.

So What?

Jimmy Hoffa has laid his cards on
the table. He is pretty sure he has what
he needs to swing the Transfers Unions
first Nationwide contract with the
trucking industry. And it would be
naive to underrate Mr.. Hoffa on this
point. He has a union of is million
members, only a fraction of whom have
found it expedient to cross the big boss.
Most of them may be expected to stick
with him to the end Of the road.
AS to where he is going, and at what
price, Mr.. Hoffa has minced no words.
His immediate goal is 3-year-contract
with 10000 trucking companies at a
cost of more than $500 million. No one
is more aware than Mr.. Hoffa that the
trucking industry cannot absorb that
kind of jolt without passing 1t on to
the public.
And no one is less concerned than
Mr.. Hoffa about who pays the freight.
The trucking companies must raise the
rates, and the public will have to foot
the bill. But what If the demand goes
beyond the non-inflationary wage
guidelineS suggested by President Ken
nedy?
That, Mr. Hoffa agrees, is a good
question, to which he has a ready an
swer Slightly paraphraSed, it is simply:
So what?
In the next breath, he pledges that
the union never will call a national
strike to back up its demands And
Mr.. Hoffa also has said he has no de-
signs on controlling the entire trans
portation industry. Well, those who
want to believe this are free to do so.
But it seems to us that the prospect
of what might happen-Something like
a paralyzed national transportation
service-Should make Congress sit up

AS European book trade ex-
hibits 60, the Frankfurt Book
Fair is not very old. While the
Leipzig fair is not much young
er than printing itself, the
Frankfurt fair was first held
in 1949.
The reason for the rapid de-
velopment of the Frankfurt
event is not hard to find. Leip-
zig, the traditional center of
the German publishing indus
try, is in what its government
calls the German Democratic
Republic, we call East Ger
many, and West G err a n S
sometimes call simply the So
Wet Zone. Leipzig's fair is not
an annual celebration of free
dom Of the press. The West
German book trade needed its
own event.
This years Frankfurt fair
was held in the middle of Oc-
tober, too late in the year,
says the distinguished West
German weekly, Die Zeit, for
the proper introduction of the
fall lists, and too early for
some publishers who were
forced to show some of their
books as dust jackets sur
rounding unspoiled, white pa
per.
Three staff members, Petra
Kipphoff, Rudolf Walter Leon
hardt and Dieter E. thinner,
contributed a full-page article
on the fair to Die Zeit'S issue
for October Is.
Statistics and Economies
The statistics they give Dor
der on fantasy. There were
1,271 exhibitors and at least
as many and possibly more
imprints. The number in
cludes all exhibitors, not Ger
mans alone.
According to the German
book trade, the Federal Repu-
bic (WeSt Germany. is in
fourth place Gin international
book production" which from
the context seems to mean
number of titles issued during
the last year. The total: 22,615
titles of which 1854 were
published for the first time.
The others were new editions
of old works.
The countries ahead of the
Federal Republic in the order
in which they finished in this
odd derby: The Soviet Union,
Great Britain and Japan.
The economics of German
publishing are clearly (and
happily different from ours.
But clearly (and unhappily)
they are moving in the same
direction.
SIS this a favorable time to
found new publishing houS-
esq" asks Die Zeit. Its an
swer: Certainly not. These
are rather years of conSolida-
ton and concentration of pro-
ductiOn. With each fair, the
number Of prognoseS of bloody
battles for power increases,
and every year the list of
houses for sale, houses that
were for sale, houses that
