share In some Of the changes
marking the progress Of higher
education everywhere. They
also help reflect Q national
trend toward faster-growing
enrollments for publicly-s u p
ported colleges than for pri.
vately-supported ones.
The University Of Maryland,
for example, looks for 1870
students this year. or over 1000
more than last year. Howard

per cent increase to brings It's
student body up over 5000.

Tuition Influences Choice
Educators nationally trace
various factors IN the more rap
ID growth Of public colleges
and universities today. For one
thing, the high cost Of college
education makes the lower tut
ton rates Of unsupported In
stitutions more telling In COLI
lege selection.
For another, state UNIVERSE
ties In many cases are commit
ted to accept q certain propor-
ton Of their states high school

standing. while private instuti-
tons may be more selective.

Predictions Of college ENROLL

Thank you very much for your
open letter, published in the Oc-
tober 18th edition of these news
papers, in which you enumerated
several adverse conditions pertain
ing to the community in which we
live. You concluded that letter by
saying: 1--WE don't have leaders
who know the steps to achieve

Mr.. Robins, please show me some
progress"
1t seems 10 me, Mrs. Cross, that
you are challenging me to a de-
bate which might end to stimulate
lettle interest among the readers
and believe me, I appreciate it.
However, I am now even more
perturbed, because since our letter
of September 10, in which we lev
eled soaring attack upon the st.
Paul daily papers-these papers,
have now declared outright war
upon the Negro, from a local and
also from a national point of view.

Nixon, Civil Rights

The 1850 Republican standard-bearer, Richard
Nixon, has been getting remarkable press in re-
cent weeks, as if good many publishers turn

Nixon has been making remarkable state

when he was presumably pohcy-rnaler in the gov

These same people," he says, ARE uncompro-

South Africa, and for the Negroes in America. In
those cases they not bothered by the fact that

governments of South Africa, Portugal and the

Mr.. Nixon is living in the past He has not been

the principle of equal rights for all citizens of the
United States is no longer embarrassment but a
of pride and strength to government. Our

principle a living reality.
1t is just possible that, from being an embarrass-

party where it stands the remarks Of its national
leader. Do Republicans concur with Nixon? Or do
they repudiate him?

Prejudice Is Enforced
By Minority In South

The suspicion that even in the Deep South the
pattern of discrimination against Negro citizens is
maintained and enforced by minority of whites is
confirmed in remarkable poll and survey conducted
by Louis Harris and reported in NEWSWEEK for
October 21.
The Harris poll contradicts a good deal Of
phony, tendental pOu-taldng by reporters for the
daily press who set out 10 prove that the Negro
volt is lacking support.
Harris finds, for example that legislation guar
anteeing equal rights in job opportunities Is sup
ported by 80 per cent of whites nationwide and 81
per cent in the SOUTH voting rights, 95% and 929S;
good housing, $50 and s1%; equal bus and train
accommodations 919S and SO%; restaurant and
lunch counter service 1870 and 49%; integrated
schooling 1871 and 31%. Among whites who have
had social contact with Negroes, the percentages
are from to 1s per cent higher than the nationwide
averages.
On all fair-pay issues the country is solidly be-

Marian MeEIroY
Tells Of Position
Editor: In these days when so
much emphasis is being put on
equal opportunities for the Negro
I consider it a pleasure to offer
some favorable comments about
the GEM stores who are in the
process of celebrating their seventh
anniversary.
I returned here in 1859 after
living in Cleveland, Ohio for sew
eral years and found it very diff
cult to readjust myself to existing
conditions in our immediate COM
munity.
1t is wholly unheard of for any
store to operate in a predominant
ly Negro neighborhood there and
not use Negro sales clerks, yet for
one excuse or another, this prac-
tice Of non+hiring was still in evid-
ence here.
For this reason, I found it most
gratifying when the us. Employ
ment office sent me to apply for
sales position in a new store that
was to be located in Bloomington
and after my interview, was hired
Immediately by the GEM in Aug
ust of 1859. Ten days before the
store opened, I was called in to
help set up the linen department
where I was to work. The build
ing wasn't even completed and it
was an experience of a lifetime to
see large department store blos-
som step by step.
When the store opened, there
were more than half a dozen Ne
groes working in various depart
ments throughout the store; set
ting some kind of a precedent.
While in the linen department,
not only received excellent train
ing, but shared in over 5000 dol
lars in prize money won for our
efforts in sales, presentation of
merchandise, and neatness.
Because of transportation
problem, left the store after 2h
years; however, if there is such a
thing as suffering nostalgia for a
place of employment I did for GEM
and when I was offered a position
as assistant manager of the Lug
gage Department in March of this
year, I readily accepted. In my
present job, which, incidentally, is
the most enjoyable, least tension

Arms And The Mon
THE POST, washington

TT is no doubt true that Nc
Dowells life was in danger all the
time at Ole Miss; and he was
therefore under great temptation
to carry a weapon 10 defend him

cause the weapon rally afforded no
protection at all and because he

Pistol-packing as a means of
self-defense is at best romantic
nonsense and at worst an invita-
ton to disaster. In the tense at

know that when the last Ebony
