A pari infante Haflfll ArSS 1! H Wednesday, March 30, 1955 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE Atlanta, Ga. OI.R) The South has its attention focused once more on the U.S. Supreme Court. On April 11 it begins de termining how to enforce its de cision to outlaw segregation in the public schools. When the court made the his toric ruling last May, it recog nised the terrific social impact of the decision and delayed en forcement procedure. Then it in vited interested states to offer suggestions. A number of Dixie states have filed briefs which in general beg for unlimited time to obey the court On the other hand, the Na tional Association for Advance ment of Colored People is asking for enforcement by this fall and Indonesian Counsel Describes Increasing Interest in UN Work Ashland Increasing interest on the part of the people all over th world - in international af fairs was noted last week end by Abdoel Ilamid, consul for the Republic of Indonesia in San Francisco, in a talk before the Ashland Conference of Young Adults. Hamid, speaking at a luncheon meeting, spoke on the work of several agencies of the United Nations in his country. General theme for the conference Satur day was "The Positive Contri butions of the Specialized Agencies of the United Nation." Too Early to Criticize Hamid said that this year, the tenth anniversary of the found ing of the United Nations is still too early to make a critical evaluation of its work. He spoke of the many accomplishments of the United Nations, and "The gigantic awakening of hundreds of millions of people freed from the yoke of colonialism." The work of the United Na tions in assisting Indonesia fol lowing its achievementof inde pendence was described by the consul. He said that Indonesia is now in the position of being able to contribute to the solu tion of world problems and well as being the recipient of techni cal assistance. Among the special accomp lishments of the United Nations. Hamid listed the work of the .tot JUST deep 30 N. CENTRAL preme Court; absolutely no later than a year from then. As a final decision on the issue approaches, this is the situation in the segregated states: 1. Five states Alabama. Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and South Carolina - form the bulwark of opposition. Their leaders have decided to abolish public schools and set up priate systems, if necessary, in an effort to get around the Supreme Court decision. 2. Integration ahead of Su preme Court orders is in pro gress in a number of states bor dering the deep South. Scattered but violent opposition resulted in Delaware, Maryland and West Virginia. The races were mixed 1 United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund. UNICEF is working on an anti yaws disease campaign, in child welfare work, on an anti-tuberculosis campaign and to increase milk production.

The United Nations Educa tional, Scientific and Cultural Organization is engaged, in scientific services, the furnish ing of books and films, the ex change of personnel, teacher training and the like. Hamid told of the rate of literacy being in creased from 7 per cent to ap proximately 50 per cent since independence. Earlier in the day the high school student delegates to the conference, from high schools throughout southern Oregon and northern California, heard talks by Dr. Roger Mastrude of the Foreign Policy Association on the purposes of the specialized agencies of the United Nations and by.E.

Except for standby legis lation, most states are marking time until the Supreme Court writes the final chapter in the segregation case. Should it be a strict one, some special legis lative sessions may be expected in short order. 4. Throughout the South, Ne gro education received a shot in the -arm when the court began consideration cf the race issue. Southern states had hoped to convince the court of their de termination to provide "separate but equal" facilities for Negro school children. They were en gaged in an equalization pro gram which some officials esti mate will cost almost a billion dollars when the court decided against them. Much of the pro Is That So? FACTS VS. FALLACIES CONCERNING MAD DOGS Few subjects are surrounded by more myths than hydropho bia even its name, which means "fear of water." is in correct. Because it is s? deadly, here's a Facts vs. Fallacy on it. Fallacy: Hydrophobia or ra bies can only be contracted by a bite. Fast: Although usually trans mitted by a bite, it can be con tracted by scratching, or even by an infected animal licking a 3 person's scratches or small wounds on the hand. Fallacy: Only dogs can trans mit rabies. Fact: Dogs, cats, wolves, coyo tes, foxes, skunks, horses, cows and even man may contract and submit rabies.

The five original parties to the segregation cases on which tht Supreme Court ruled Del aware, South Carolina, Virginia, Kansas, and the District of Co lumbia will participate in the final arguments. Of these, Kansas and Wash ington, D.C., are well on the way to voluntary obedience to the decree. A similar attempt was made in a Delaware town, but the State Supreme Court ruled that, while Delaware schools could inte grate if they desired, they could r.ot at present be compelled to do so. The Justice Department will uphold the Eisenhower adminis tration's position of integration as rapidly as possible on a local basis. By Eugene Burnt Ranger-Naturalist Fallacy: Rabid animals refuse water. Fact: Many animals having rabies crave water. Fallacy: It is a summer dis ease. Fact: Kabies is year-round. It tends to be more prevalent in summer because more dogs run about from April to October which increases the chances for the spread of the disease. Fallacy: A rabid animal foams at the mouth. Fact: Tradition notwithstand ing, there is little increase in saliva secretion but it does thicken and adheres more to the sides of the mouth and teeth. Fallacy: A rabid animal's bite is immediately fatal. Fact: Far from it. The cUre is almost 100 per cent effec tive, providing the Pasteur treatment is given between he time of the bite or scratch and the development of symptoms. But once the symptoms develop, death always results. Fallacy: Only humans can be inoculated against rabies. Fact: All animals can be in oculated in fact, this is one method of suppressing it. Fallacy: Symptoms are appar ent within a week. Fact: Occasionally, if bites or scratches are about the head it may be within 10 days. But it may be several months. Normal ly, symptoms develop in two weeks to two months, 40 days being the average. Fallacy: Muzzling dogs is the only answer. Fact: In the Hawaiian Islands and Australia where quarantine is either absolute or extends over six months, no case of rabies has developed during the pres ent century.

Benson Says Attacks Made To Hide Issues Washington (U.R) Agricul ture Secretary Ezra T. Benson said criticism of his direction of the department was a di versionary attack to hide the "real issue that the old rigid program of price supports fails to meet the needs of the farmer." Benson told a news conference Tuesday that the department's money bill approved yesteday by the House is "quite satisfac toy." Criticism of his steward ship is another matter, he said." "I believe I made myself clear last week," Benson said in a general discussion of charges made by the House Appropria tions Committee that the agri culture situation is growing steadily worse and that the com modity export program is falter ing. Benson said then the criti cism "appears to be primarily political propaganda.
