NorthornOrs Accept Token IRfOgrufloR
While Northern (white) opinion has
firmly rejected violence and outright defi-
ance Of federal court decisions on desegre-
cation, as demonstrated in Mississippi, It
has accepted token integration, the device
Southerners have sldllfully fashioned to
avoid the consequences on integration.
Apart from indignant Negroes who have
reacted with sit-ins and other direct action
efforts, few voices have been raised against
token integration, in spite Of the fact that
less than 8 per cent Of the Negro children
Of the South are attending desegregated
schools, less than one per cent If we exclude
border areas.-Murray Friedman.

No Longer An AbsSrueffon

New understanding Of Southern adjust
ment problems on the part of white sup
porters of integration also results from
changes that have taken place in the North.
The heavy exodus Of Negroes from the
South since World War II, has to a large
degree, shifted the center OF the race prob
lem to 80" the North and West. The Negro
is no longer an abstraction to the white lib
eral but a concrete reality-in many In
stances, a potential actual or next-doOr
neighbor, a classmate Of his child's, a CO.
worker at office or work bench.-Murray

TOO MANY INDIANS
Rusk Wants Chiefs
In More Jobs at State

Replying at length, Mr.. Rusk
indicated that Senator Mundt
had touched on something
which had caused some grum-
bling" among some Of the SEN
ior members Of the Foreign
Service.
Mr.. Rusk said many Of the
top-ranking "chiefs" have felt
it beneath their stature to &C.
cept any job other than an
ambassadorship when q tour of
duty ends. Such vital posts as
administrative officers, or desk
men for various countries were
considered jobs for men Of less
er rank.
Adds Prestige to Jobs
Mr.. Rusk said he has been
trying to make every Job fit
only Tor q chief" I've been
trying to strengthen the lower
echelon jobs by getting top
men in there" he said. I'VE
should be able to assign top
men to jobs that don't look
big now"
One Of the successes in the
campaign was the acceptance
by Averell Hartman Of the
post Of Assistant Secretary Of
State early in the Kennedy
administration. This gifted the
prestige" Of that job. Mr.. Rusk
said. Since then, Mr.. Hartman
has risen to No. 2 man in the
department.

to be made subject to an "Af-
rican" government in Nairobi.
The Somali Republic vigorous
ly supported their objections.
Ethiopia opposed them. Eth
opia had a long, standing quar-
rel of her own with Somalia.
Ethiopian Area Involved
The Greater Somalia, +"
which has become the aim of
all SomaliS, is to include about
10000 square miles of the Oga-
den Province Of Ethiopia, just
north Of here. This Is occupied
by Somali tribesmen who have
wandered in over the years,
Just as they had wandered in
to Kenya.
If this region is to join So
malta, the Somali frontier will
move forward 400 miles along
the Ethiopian Ogaden border.
For q moment, therefore, Eth
opia supported the cleim of the
Kenya government to the whole
Of the northern frontier prov
ince.
A commission was appointed
to examine the problem. It's
Recommendation, accepted by
the British government, wa 8
that the area inhabited by So
mali and Ajuran tribesmen
must be treated as a separate
area, but that the rest, where
most Of the people are hostile
to the Somalis, must be placed
under the direct control Of the
Nairobi government.
This has been followed, dur
ing the last three weeks, by
statements by Kenya'S leaders
that the region is to be made
an integral part Of Kenya in
stead of being left very much
on its own as in the past. The
tribes who regard Ethiopia as
their homeland have therefore
become alarmed, and their fell
low tribesmen are flocking in
from Ethiopia to support them.

The old adage about toe
many chiefs and not enough
Indians is out of date In the
modern State Department, Sec
rotary of State Rusk claims.
His problem, Mr.. Rusk told
Congress yesterday, is Just the
opposite. He has too many In
dams and not enough chiefs.
The whole business came up
at the end Of the public por-
ton Of Mr.. Rusk's. testimony
before a Senate Appropriations
subcommittee.
Ever watchful of the. budget
Senator Mundt, Republican OF
South Dakota, asked Mr.. Rusk
II there weren't too many

doing jobs that Indians could
do as we'll"
He indicated that he read
somewhere that many men OF
top rank were floating around
Washington with no Jobs to
do, or doing jobs that lower
grade, and lower paid, foreign
service officers could do as well.
Rusk Feels Strongly
This is a subject Mr.. Rusk
said he felt strongly about"

ment Of State should m ove

WAJIR, Kenya. - From their
semi-desert outposts In this
vast unknown region of Kenya,
the Northern Frontier District,
fierce, nomadic tribesmen,
armed to the teeth, have
started assembling. ready to
fight and die.
On one side the Somalis and
Ajuran, a semi Somah people,
reinforced by tribesmen from
neighboring Somalia, are riding
In on their camels.
On the other side are assem-
bling the pagan Gabbra, Boran
and Rendille, reinforced by
tribesmen from Ethiopia, i'm
mediately to the north.
Between them are the Mus
lin elements of the Boran and
Rendille who want to link up
with the Somalis and Ajuran
but who are prevented from do
ing so by q decision of the
British government. Also in be-
tween are the handful Of Brit
ish Northern Frontier Police,
as tough as the tribesmen
themselves and as at home in
this unfriendly waste.
First Hand Report
I have just Travelled through
the whole area and met the
chiefs of all the rival tribes
and tribal groups. I have met
them in the remote bush, at
the end of camel or goat tracks
where they are sharpening their
spears and trying to find am
munition for their firearms.
While I was travelling through
the area, there were AZ violent
deaths in preliminary skir-
mishes. A district commission
er and the senior chief of the
Muslin Boran were among the
dead.
Tension is mounting stead

They are determined to fight
for what they want.
Everywhere there is complete
agreement that the time is in

that the curtain may be about

The hour is expected to strike
when Duncan Sandys, Britain's

the Northern Frontier District

Kenya which will be created on
December II. or whether 1t will
be allowed to secede, to join
Somalia in the creation Of q
Greater Somalia. The area in
volved is larger than Britain.
Region Long Isolated
Until two months ago the
old northern frontier Province
of Kenya was only nominally
part of Kenya. Outsiders, In
GLIDING anybody from the rest
of Kenya, could not enter II
without permission, which was
not easily obtained. It was the
preserve of perhaps the hardi-
est and most primitive Of At
rica'S tribesmen.
The Somalis and Ajuran had
wandered, nomadic fashion
from Somalia. Over the years
they had won the allegiance
of one part of the Boran and
the Rendille. and had convert
ed them to Islam.
The Gabbra, the Boran and
the Rendille had similarly wan

ECLIPSE CAR INJURE EYES

There is no safe way to look directly at the solar eclipse scheduled to occur July 20 even though the sun is totally blacked out in some areas of Alaska on that date, Dr. Levi M. Browning, commissioner of health and welfare, warned AL askans this week.
 Dangerous infra-red rays still will be emitted by the fiery planet, he said, and per manent damage to vision can result though gazers would not realize that the retina of their eyes was being burned.
 The National Society for the Prevention of Blindness points out that smoked glass, exposed photographic film, and dark glasses are not adequate pro- lection from the damaging rays. The national society rec ommends that the eclipse be observed through simple pro- jection devices. A projector for observing the eclipse can be made with two pieces of white cardboard.
