The center, a pioneering concept in correctional programs, will hold 1,200 minimum and medium security state prisoners and is designed to save Mississippi Voting Official Ordered To Registered By AL KUETTNER UPI Correspondent The U.S. Court of Appeals ' acted with an unusual degree ' of urgency in ordering a Mis sissippi voting registrar to put 45 Negroes on the registration list and to stop discriminating against other Negroes who want to vote. The appeals court - with Local Man Is Held For Contempt Robert Ross Rheinsburg, 38, route 3, box 188, Medford, was sentenced to six months In Jackson county jail Mon day afternoon on a charge of contempt of court when he refused to testify before Cir cuit Judge Edward C.

(UPI) WEDNESDAY. JULY 17. 1963 HJ ' t,,.,- .... Negroes judges from Texas, Louisiana and Georgia acting unanimously-told Forrest county (Hattiesburg) registrar There on Lynd Monday to comply with its orders within 10 days or face a trip to prison. Other phases of his case are pend ing. It is highly unusual for a federal court specifically to order individuals to be regis tered for voting. In the only recent case like it, a U. S. court handed down a similar order for a larger group of Negro registrants in Mont gomery, Ala. Most Unusual The appeals court also said in the Lynd case that it was most unusual" for that court to hand down an injunction as it did on a temporary basis in the Lynd case. The appellate court said it took the action so that the rights of the Negroes in volved might be protected while the federal district court conducts a full hearing on a justice Department re quest tor an Injunction against the HaUlesburs regis- trar. The lower court had ear. Her refused to grant the in junction. Civil rights voting cases are expected to become increas ingly prominent between now and the 1964 presidential dec tlon as Negro organizations step up pledges to "double the Negro registration." Negro groups are finding the way fairly easy In some sections of the South. It is more difficult In others, Their problem is both opposition from "the courthouse crowd" in rural areas and lethargy on the part of Negroes. Shows Slight Incraai Latest figures available from the U.S. Civil Rights Commission and the Voter Ed ucation Project, a get-oul-lhe- Ncgro-vote drive financed by the Taconlc Foundation, show only a slight Increase in Negro registration between 1960 and 1062. A spokesman for the VEP says Mississippi's Negro regis tration is about 25,000, rough ly what It was In 1960 and 1962. That's the low point for the South. There arc 422, 256 voting-age Negroes in Mississippi, according to most recent figures. The Lynd decision a (feels an area of the nation where there has been a running ac count of alleged voter dis crimination and violence aRainst Negroes working for voting privileges. Alabama, with about 70,000 registered Negroes from a voting age Negro population of 481,320, is next to the bot tom.

Surgeons often advise against removing the port wine stain, because the op eration must leave a scar. The disadvantage of this is that people know what a port- wine stain is, while they won't know why a person has a white scare on the side of his face. Often, also, the port- wine slain goes onto an eye lid or the nose or the lips, where an operation would be likely to leave some defor mity. The best treatment I have seen for these port-wine stains is to cover them over with a special preparation which stays all day and is water proof. It can be made to look so much like the normal skin that no one can notice lis presence. This covering pre paration can be found In drug stores and at cosmetic count- era. It can be nut on In the morning and wiped off at night. It can be tinted to malch the child's skin. Strawberry Mark The second major type of birthmark is the so-called strawberry mark, which is made up of immature blood vessels. For a while the mark may enlarge considerably, and then later it will fade out. These marks range in color from red to blue, and In the wording of the expert, "They consist of compressible vascular tumors." During the lime when the mark is en larging, the temptBllon is strong to remove the thing surgically, but experts toll us this should not be done, in view of the fact that an ex cellent result can come when the nodule disappears by it self. In those rare cases in which there is bleeding, or In which the mark interferes with the function of an eyelid or a lip, it can be treated with some form of radio-therapy, or freezing, surgical excision, in jection with a solution which will cause the blood vessels to contract down, electro coagulation, or compression. Usually, with these tumors, the shrinkage occurs before the age of one year, but some times it is not complete until the age of 7. There is a third form of birthmark, called a mature angioma (blood vessel tumor) which shows no tendency to disappear, and is not sensitive to radiation. These nod.ilcs show no increase in size with age. The only treatment Is excision, and skin grafting. It I had a child with one of these marks, 1 would put him in the hands of an expert plastic surgeon and let him decide If anything should be done. The word arthritis has largely replaced the old word rheumatism. Dr. Alvarez de scribes many kinds of arthritis in his booklet about the sub ject.
