o 0 3 Buried ire Valuable Stamp Found In Old Research OThe history of the island of St. Lucia, discovered by Colum bus and one of the mostcfought- over and most beautiful in the world, has always interested me. And so, when Paul asked me over to see a wealth of source material he had gathered for his projected book on the subject, I promptly went along. Paul had acquired a couple of boxes of books and papers deal ing with the history of the Windward Islands and the West Indies. In going through the con tents of one of the crates I hap pened to notice a bit of paper that seemed to be a page mai in one of the books. The volume SHINY BUTTON DATES BACK "The button gleamed so that thought it must be a fake, but something made me buy it. Is it any good?" It did look suspiciously new. But as I examined it, explaining that my knowledge on the sub ject was severely limited, it be came quite clear why she had bought it. q The button was brass, and the owner of the salvage shop in which it had been found had polished it with the utmost car The design was simple $nd beautiful. In the center of the convex face was the banner of the South. Two crossed bars containing 13 stars lying in (i oblong field.

His brothel Jim, fho wanted to buy it, mintined that it wasnot. " Did I have anything, they wanted to know, that woult de cide the matter? I asked to see the booi. For a first edition, or even a secont, it was in suspiciously joofl condi tion. Especially so in considera tion of Frank's having bought it in one of the bookstall lonj the Left Bank, ?n Pari.

It was a deep blue, four-penny item, bearing ) portrait of Queen Victoria, left, in n oval frame around which appeared the words St. Lucia Postage. We saw a watermark consisting of g small, six-pointed star. A quick check with' Scott's Catalogue gave the value of the find. That stamp was an 1860 issue, ajrjthe watermark proved. Its catalogue value was S50. (Jiust about what I paid for the books," Paul said. TO CONFEDERATE AR1CY arouad the banner and between it, and the letters which lay just inside the rim. The letters spelled out the words CONFED ERATE ARMY. There were also, below the banner, the initials A. G. D., standing for Adjutant General's Department.

Th finding tffint Drf Scott that a slav or g descendantj)Compromise was put up to the of slavas could not be citizen was the all-time) low, legally speaking, of the American Negro. Scott, a Missouri slave, sued for his freedom on the ground that previous residence in a free state had struck off his bonds. Chief Justice Roger B. Taney held for a 7 to 2 majority that when the framers of the Con stitution said "all men are cre ated equal" they meant white men only. The Missouri Compromise Taney wrote that for more than a century Negroes had been "regarded as beings of an in ferior order, and altogether un fit to associate with the white race either in social or political relations; and so far inferior that they had no rights which the white man -as bound to respect; and that the Negro might justly and lawfully be reduced to slav ery f6r his benefit." Each of the nine justices had his say in the case, which occu pies 240 pages in the bound vol ume of opinions for that term. In 1896, after war amend ments to the Constitution had given Negroes citizenship and voting rights, the high court enunciated th controversial "separate but equal" doctrine. The tsibunal has only recently completely cast aside this philos ophy in all areas of living-under government supervision, thus virtually completing the Ne groes' climb to legal status equal to that of whites. The 1857 decision, howtver, went far deeper than the prob lems of Dred Scott $n6 others like him. It found unconstitu tional the Missouri Compromise of 1820, designed as 6 stop-gap in the political war over exten sion of slavery.

William H. Seward of New York hinted in the Sen ate that Taney had made a cor rupt political bargain with Presi dent James Buchanan. Taney had said that one of the constitutional functions of Congress was to protect prop erty, thatdhe Constitution recog nized slaves as property, and that Congress was bound to pro tect slavery in the territories. Therefore, it could not make any part of the Louisiana Territory "free" as it had done in the Mis souri Compromise.
