America axe Up!

Editor of The Herald:
1t was indeed a sad day for
our nation last Monday When
the Supreme Court barred Bible
reading and the Lords Prayer
from the public schools OF our
land Why this decision?
My answer is and | quote
For the word of God is quick
and powerful and sharper than
any two-edged sword. piercing
even to the dividing asmder of
Soul and Spirit. ard of Joint S
and marrow. and is a discerner
of the thoughts and intents of
the heart" Hebrews APP
In Psalms AL we read The
Fool hath said in his heart,
there is no God" Is this what
our nation is saying to tn G
world?
Again may I quote Proverbs
1872, when the righteous are
in authority, the People rejoice
but when the wicked bearath
rule. the people mourn. "A s o
Psalm 30:5 Every word Of God
is pure: He is a Shield unto
them that put their trust il
him.
America wake up. It may be
later than you think.

Double Check


AS things seemeth to one so
they are. He that thinks he is
being nistreated has that adj
vantage of living the part of the
underdog it is as it seems
to be to the Individual Have
faith, Oh my soul, that I may
think not on the dark side Of
things =. but looking at the
bright side I may too have hope
in the future Of mankind. To
have hopes is to believe in God
and to believe in God is to
have hope perfected to God
belongs the Glory.
President Kennedy has set
out to do things that have never
been done before it is up to
America as Americans to back
the President in all of his under
takings. My request to him
was that he call in some of the
leaders Of our Nation to take
counsel on the great frontier of
uthls Nation. He has so done and
| hope it works out all right. His
Civil Rights spithall is now in
the hands of The Congress of the
United States they know
what to do with it.
Mr.. Kennedy will now GO
abroad giving us a cooling off
period SO far nothing has turned
out right The peaceful revolt
ton wasn't peaceful to begin,
with and where it will end is
just about anybody's guess.
1863 will go down in History
nabe, as the year the Amer
cans outdid themselves.
Thanks for reading.

BABSON PARK, MASS, June
"a This is the time of year
when young people graduating
from high school and college
face the big task of finding a
job. Not just any job to secure
spending money, but one which
can lead to a useful career. For
many, this looms as the biggest
hurdle of their adult life Sue
cess can mean a reWarding life,
but failure may take away en-
thusiaSm and initiative Hence,

time to devote a column to

WHO Are You?
" Well, we don't just rightly know.
Our name doesn't make much differ

We are still proud of our family
name. We have got accustomed to our
given name. Both mean great deal
to us. But under the present system of
identification we may be losing both
Our Identity may become one number.
The time may come when a child will
be assigned a number at birth, instead
OF a name. When he is baptized it will
be number not a name When he goes
to school, or graduates from college, or
becomes voter, he will be known by
number. 1t may make sense to some
but it is confusing to us.
Now we are known by number. Our
social security is 231-40-9418. Our driv-

is 461-9S4. Our Blue Cross number is

Racial Indignation
Inevitable, Says
DR.. d. NJ. Allen

Editor, Farmville Herald
In his controversial addresses
on racial inequality Professor
Henry E. Garrett has recently
raised in our midst issues that
no Southerner can ignore. This
very distinguished PSYCHOLOGIST,
under whom the writer had the
privilege of studying, would
doubtless admit, however, that
it is in the Interpretation of the
facts that he finds himself in a
minority among his fellow spe-
cialists That there is a 10 or 20
point 10 difference between the
Southern Negro pupils and La-
tional white norms, few VIII
deny. But in more than TWO
hundred and fifty studies of "a
clal differences. the great ma
jority of investigators conclud-
ed that these differences could
be mainly accounted for in
terms Of cultural opportunity
stimulating environment, suita-
bility of the tests ard proper
motivation for the tests. DR.. Gar
rett belongs to the minority Who
hold that intelligence or what
intelligence tests measure is SO
per cent hereditary or nativistic
However, there is another diff
ference Of Interpretation. Aver
ages of the two races give little
conception of the extraordinary
range and variety Of abilities
within each race Thus it may be

record rate, up 1919 per cent.
Industrial production has adj
vanced 18 per cent. DESPITE
these impressive gains. employ
ment has been able to post only
a three per cent rise and I'M
employment shows little re al
improvement.
Attenuation is often blamed
for our unemployment difficult
ties. The real truth is, however.
that work crews have had to
be trimmed down to efficient
proportion because of such fac
tors as the shrinkage of profit
margins, costs of higher wage
and fringe benefits, and soaring
taxes which employers must
pay for their workers.
The Population Structure
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1963-06-25
The Vulnerable Group

t I 0 e C ii 0 IN S Of pOpula-
ton trends indicate that between
now and 1870, especially after
1868, two age groups should show
the largest increase. These are
the 1919 year-olds and the 20-24
bracket, This means that in the
second half Of this decade, the
economy will face a big task in
finding jobs for these newcom-
erS.
These statistics seem to me to
be advising students to take their
education seriously. Unskilled
and uneducated workers are
finding it progressively more
difficult to find jobs. And the
odds will be mounting against
them in the years ahead. Since
the new worker group lacks
high skills and experience. we
have the makings of a chronic
sore spot which could cause SER
lOuS economic and sociological
headaches later on.
Population Employment Figures
These young adults may. how
ever, hold the key to further
prosperity. Not only do they
constitute a mighty potential for
lifting demand and consumption,
but they could beef up the
productive portion of the popula-
ton. However, this potential can
be realized only if these young
adults can find suitable employ
ment. am certain that there
will be opportunities, and at
tractlve ones at that for those
prepared for careers in science,
engineering, m dicine, COM
merce, and education.
Those lacking the aptitude or
funds to attend college need not
get discouraged. There is a
trend toward scarcity Of skilled
and semiskilled technical help.
This mechanical and scientific
age is opening up many OPP
portunites for blue collar
workers. Those who are willing
to pursue the proper training
can earn a good weeks pay. but
only after they have acquired
that training. This means post
ponlng marriage to a later date.
1 am optimistic on young peo-
pie. They are our nations best
asset. My plea is that they be
told OF the conditions ahead and
reminded that employment is a
''two-way street..
The Farmville herald. (Farmville, Va.) 1957-current, 1963-06-25

Another factor which h S
kept unemployment at an I'M
comfortably high level is t h e
rising tide of young people en-
tering the labor force. What we
are contending with now is only
the frontal wave of the upturn
in the birth rate of the Il a I G
'thirnes. A more sizeable in
crease in job seekers still lies
ahead when the baby boom of
the 'forties makes itself felt on
the labor scene.
This mushrooming of the res
ervoir of manpower is the pri-
mary reason for the sticky rate
OF unemployment. That the eco
nomy is now barely able to
absorb the influx of new work
ers into the labor force is a
S y m p t o m of poor economic
health, considering the fact that
business has been enjoying two
years Of high activity.
