Several Cracks I n Segregation Wall Have Appeared Recently By AL KUETTNER United Prats International Negroes called il their "sum mer oj discontent" but the fact is that many segregation barriers were dropped almost without fan fare during the past three months. It was only three years, ago that violence swept the Univer sity of Georgia when its first two negroes were admitted. Today, 35 Negroes attend units of the state's university system' includ ing 15 at Georgia and two at Val dosta State College- which is in a strong segregation area. There was no fuss about any of them. According to the Southern Ed, ucation Reporting Service, 130 of the 150 school districts which de segregated for the first time this fall did so voluntarily. Cracks In The Wall Here are some other cracks that have appeared in the wall of segregation since July 1: The Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen voted to remove all racial membership re strictions. Chattanooga, Tenn., desegre gated most leading restaurants. The Muscogee County (Colum bus) Ga. and Brunswick, Ga., school boards voted to desegre gate schools voluntarily. . Norfolk, Va., announced through a biracial commission that motels and hotels would de segregate. At Gary, Ind., the Methodist Hos pital ended discrimination in all areas of hospital life. Rural desegregation came to Tennessee with admission of five Negroes to Livingston Academy without trouble. Jackson, Miss., placed five Ne gro officers on the police force. In Baton Rouge, La., barriers were dropped at lunch counters and at 12 retail stores. Sumter, S. C, desegregated a theater, the first move in that town. In Peoria, 111., banks agreed to hire 20 Negroes in non-custodial jobs. At Selma, Ala., four Negro women were admitted to the pre viously All-white First Presbyte rian Church. Soma Still Dissatisfied If the segregation walls arc tumbling so quietly, why are some Negro leaders still dissat isfied? ' Leaders like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and the Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth argue that most of the victories so far are token con cessions. Their cry is "freedom now," meaning wholesale integra tion. . That kind of argument appeals to some large groups of Negroes. It is the rally cry that turns out thousands in such places as .Bir mingham. """fS; "i Against some strong advice from his own people. King is moving toward the launching of another major street demonstra tion in the Aabama city. He and Shuttlesworth claim there has been too little effort to resolve racial discord since the demon strations of last May. A bi-racial committee in Bir- r. ingham, which has been strug gling toward a start at desegre gation amidst the shock of dyna mitings and killings, views the planned resumption of King's campaign much like the act of drving a herd of horses over a field of grass that has just sprouted in the spring. September Report Reveals Farm Prices Are Down From Year Ago By BERNARD BRENNER WASHINGTON (UPI)-The Ag riculture Department's monthly farm price report shows prices in terms of parity for mid-September were down five per cent from one year ago. The report showed the average prices for crops and livestock down to 77 per cent of parity. In mid-September, 1062, farm prod- Tenmile Classes Make Field Trip By MRS. WALTER COATS Mrs. Jeaninc Blanchard took her second and third grade class at the Tcnmile Grade School on an afternoon hike recently. They hiked up the Tenmile Valley Road and down to the Tenmile Store where Fire Chief Ted Benedict explained the use of the fire fighting equip ment while the children looked over the fire truck. It was also a science trip. The class collected leaves and rocks to use in science class. The school bus met them at the Tenmile Store and took them back to school. Mrs. William Cook also made the trip. Janet Roberts, 8-year-old daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Rob erts of Olalla is convalescing at her home following brain surgery at a hospital in Eugene. Janet was hit by a rock while playing at her Home several weeks ago and her skull was fractured above the left eye. She is reported to be im proving satisfactorily but will not be able to return to school for at least another week. She attends Tenmile School. Mr. and Mrs. Milford Dowdy LeAnn and Tim drove to Eugene over the weekend to visit the Dowdy's son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Verne Zeller, and family. Clifford Howard has returned to his' home in Tenmile from the U.S. Veterans Administration Hos pital in Hoseburg where he under went major surgery. He is report ed' to be improving satisfactorily. nets were selling for an average of 81 per cent of parity. The report showed a squeeze on profits for cattle and hog pro ducers. Prices for hogs and cat tle dipped between mid-August and mid-September while the price of corn, the chief livestock feed, went up. The index for live stock feed prices was the highest for any September since 1956. Corn was selling in mid-Sen- tcmber for a national average of $1.21 a bushel. This price was up two cents irom mid-August, and it was 14 cents above the price in mid-September of 1962. Agriculture Department spokes men pointed out, however, that corn prices normally begin to de cline after September as the har vest season comes on. Annthor development in the corn market situation came last week when the Agriculture Department re sumed sales of government-owned corn tor domestic use from ter minal markets. A spokesman, reporlin; on this action today, said the govern ment had been selling corn at terminal markets only for export since midsummer. The price report Monday showed hog prices in mid-September averaging $15.40 a hun dredweight, down $1.20 from mid August. Beef cattle prices aver aged $20.10 a hundredweight in mid-September, down 30 cents from mid-August. Wheat prices, on the other hand, were pushed ud bv reac tion to recent big Russian import orders for wheat. In mid-September, the average wheat price was up to $1.84 a bushel, a seven-cpnt Bum over one monm earlier. Average prices farmers got for crops and livestock in inid-Sep-tember were down four-tenths of one per cent from mid-August, down four per cent from a year ago. But in terms of parity, the figure which shows th cpurchas- mg power ol the farmer's dollar, the decline was a little bigger. While farm prices were down four per cent from a yeaiv ago, farm costs were up one per cent from September, 1962. Combining these two factors, farm prices in terms of parity were off five per cent from a year earlier. The cost of things farmers buy in mid-September was reported unchanged from August. But the average was still high enough to set a new record for September. 4 ' i P .i i tl i hi iiU'iii iinnin ii ii UlJb(fTiiii hYhtittltummu1!me'li INGRED BERGEN GOES ALONG with "way out" futuristic device dreamed up by a Pen Co. research staff, and votes for the weather of her choice in the 21st Century.
