be fair, csc asks, to have new en-
ploye pick up an Indebtedness incurred
before his time?
That is one side of the coin. On the
other is the non-Government worker
who, in some cases. has little or no pen
sion and must depend solely upon Social
Security after retirement. A few years
from now his Social Security tax will
be almost as high as the Government
workers 6l29o, and he also will be help
ing the Government worker pay for his
more ample retirement. The latter often
ranges between so and 80 per cent of
his salary, and there is nothing to pre-
vent the retired Government employe
from taking a new job at no sacrifice to
his pension.
Again, there is no question that the
Government retirement fund needs an
overhauling. The only question is
whether those who share in 1t ought
not to pay part of the additional freight.

Cancer Survivors,

I wish to thank you for the
news coverage about the
Cancer Survivors" and the
drug Krebiozen, upon which
their continued survival
depends.
I attended the meeting
called by Senator Paul Doug
las at the Senate Office
Building, May IA, and the
one held with Boisfeuillet
Jones, assistant to Secretary
Celebrezze. the following day.
What seriously amazes me
is that this story did not gain
headline first-page attention
in all newspapers. radio and
TV. Surely, with our present
pitiful and woeful ignorance
OF what causes cancer and
how TO cure ii. no stone
should be left unturned in
seeking more knowledge and
testing thoroughly all pos
sible avenues.

Bread and Lawyers

Someone has already observed that
lawyers can make simple things sound
complicated, but who would have
thought they could make much of loaf
Of bread?
Now it's happened.
An attorney representing a New
York firm bent on selling French bread
here insists on defining that everyday
commodity-whicht the French call bag
uette-as roll"
1t seems that District requirements
prohibit the sale Of bread unless certain
weight specifications are met. The bag
uette, because 1t weighs ounces, does
not meet them.
So, despite the impartial opinion Of
the French Embassy that baguetteS are
small, thin loaves OF tasty bread" (note
the chauvinistic tasty" there), the at
torney insists these are not loaves Of
bread but definitely "rolls."
Well, lawyers being lawyers, and the
American penchant for things French
being what 1t is baguettes may event.
ually come out rolls, all right. But you
won't convince any OF the old Yankee
crowd that has put in its time in the
garrets Of Montparnasse and ST. Ger
main des Pres.
For 1t, and for every Frenchman
within hearing, the baguette is that
small, thin loaf of tasty bread" that
one dashes out TO buy at the boulangerie
on cold winter nights.
And how will the imported version
retain the fragrance OF those loaves,
stacked still warm on the boulanger's
counter, ready 10 be carried home under
arm and, II the bearer so desires, nibbled
and perhaps entirely consumed before
the garret is reached2
No, baguette is loaf Of bread no
matter how you slice IL.
But II the importer persists, he
might better consider the shorter, stout
er and appreciably heavier variety Of
French loaf
The French call II batard. Any
lawyer should be able TO make something
Of that.

Tribute to the Blind

Next Tuesday promises to be the
brightest day in their lives for four
young blind people. They are going to
the White House, not to be received in
sympathy by the President but simply
to be honored for outstanding Scholas-
tic achievement"
Three of the students have been
blind since birth. The other, the only
woman of the quartet, lost her sight at
the age of six because of middle ear
infection. Thus, through all their aca-
demic years they have been immured in
darkness. President Kennedy will be
introduced to:
Richard H. Fidler %, of Hatboro,
Pa, graduating from Bucknell Univer-
sity in the top 5 per cent Of his class,
and planning to teach mathematics.
Patrick Vincent Peppe, %, Of New York
City, graduating from Harvard College
with r plus average, and preparing to
teach history. Jean Van Ormer, %, of
Cumberland, Md, graduating from Dick
inson College with AS and 2 Bs) and
planning further study for a rehabilita-
ton counseling career. Charles E.
Vaughan, 25, of South Charleston, w.
Va, receiving a bachelor Of divinity
degree from Union Theological Semi
nary with plus average) as training
for the Baptist ministry.
Those are remarkable achievements
under any circumstances, but to the
Recording for the Blind, Inc, there is
10 cause for surprise. There are l,l00
other sightless university students who,
as group, have a higher scholastic
cverage than those with vision. In ad-
dition to their own initiative, much of
The blind students success stems from
the recorded books furnished by the
volunteer, non-profit organization.
1t is understandable that the or
zanizationS national director, Burnham
Carter, calls the blind scholars achieve
ments ian answer to those who believe
that Americans are intellectually slack"
He might we'll add that their courage
and determination set an example for
many Of US with seeing eyes.

Burden of Discipline

In his brief ews-conference COM
ment on the subject the other day,
President Kennedy made the point that
none of us takes kindly to the idea of
other people knocking our kids around.
Accordingly, he says he favorS very
strong discipline at home" rather than
the administering of corporal punish
ment in the schools.
Well we think this is an eminently
sound and reasonable position-as far
as it goes.
But the trouble is that In its appli-
cation to present-day conditions in Dis
trict schools it doesn't go very far. For
its validity rests on the assumption that
there is choice between the two forms
of discipline in the cases Of those un-
controllable troublemakers who on occa-
sion so spurn authority that they make
a shambleS of the normal classroom
atmosphere. And unfortunately in most
Of these instances no such choice exists.
The root of the trouble, of course,
lies most directly in lack of discipline
in the home. To the extent that Mr..
Kennedy's remarks are intended to stim-
ulate firmer parental hand, we agree
with them. But until some way can be
found to accomplish this desirable goal,
common sense supports the judgment Of
Superintendent Hansen, Of the House of
Representatives, and of most of the
teachers in the city, that the Districts
widely diScredited ban on corporal pun
ishment should be rescinded.

Put Them to Work

Only 100 students, a handful out
OF the whole city, are involved in the
first intensive effort to right a serious
wrong. But from what happens to them
will emerge the answer to whether this
community has begun to face up to
the realization that every young person
deserves a chance for gratifying en-
ployment.
The youths most of them Negroes,
want to become skilled workers in the
building construction trades. So have
many before them, but with the ex-
ception Of few in the carpenters union,
none has been admitted to apprentice
ship. The excuses to bar them have
been many and varied, some we'll
grounded.
Now, to eliminate the cause for
excuses, the United States Employment
Service is putting all applicants from
public and parochial schools through
a rigorous screening based on adapt
ability, desire, intelligence, character
and similar demands. Both the District
and National USES offices are drilling
into them that this is not a game
that an apprenticeship entails four
years of on-the-job training by day
and IA hours of schooling by night.
The 100 surviving applicants say they
would like to try.
What remains now is for the Is
trade unions to accept the young men
as apprentices. Some of the unions
have said: 1--WE would like to take a
look at your qualified applicants" An
encouraging step in the right direction.
The contractors have said: IF the
unions accept them, they will work"
To men such as Victor R. Daily,
District USES deputy director, this is
more than just another pilot project.
He has seen too many school dropouts,
discouraged because an older brother
was refused chance; too many youths
embittered by three years of wasted
vocational training; too many parents
who had stopped raising false. hopes
in their boys. In Mr. Days words:
by offering apprenticeships to
Negro youths, the construction industry
can open up entire new vistas to them.
The lift it would give to the Negro
community is beyond ability to express"
The opportunity is at hand it would
be pity to snatch it away from these
young men whose hope, they believe,
has been erected on good faith.
