Marquis Who's Who, Inc., re ports that only a small minority of its listings are persons whose education did not go beyond sec ondary school. Only 8.3 per cent of the approximately 51,000 men and women of achievement listed this year had no college. This com pares with 14.9 per cent of the total in 1928. The actual decrease percentagewise is much greater, however, because there are now nearly twice as many listings in Who's Who as there were in 1928. How to keep youngsters in school is a problem which recurs every fall. It is typical of the age in which we live that a monetary value is figured out for additional educa tion. The U.S. Department of Labor puts a price tag on it by saying that high school graduates earn an average of $30,000 more in a life time than those who do not com- plete 12 years of schooling. It adds that college graduates earn from $50,000 to $60,000 more. Schooling beyond high school can be vocational in character aimed at the liberal arts. In other words, your little boy can learn to use his hands along with his brains or he can specialize in cul ture. Horatio Alger was quite the lad, but he was always representative of the minority, only, and that minority group has lessened in number today. Still using the dollar sign, two or four years of college cost from $6,000 up. If that investment is worth up to $50,000 it represents a 10 per cent return on the money. Of course, under the labor de partment's figures, It'll take a life time to earn it. American girls are now sewing lessons in school. Bicycle accidents have dropped nearly 13 per cent in the last 10 years. It was Mark Twain who said, "be careless in your dress if you must, but keep a tidy soul."

Ten million Americans have lutpgrafioii By JAMES MARLOW Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON Ufi This is one of the important weeks in Ameri can history. The Supreme Court meeting Thursday, must do two things: 1. Give a decision which will af fect the whole course of public school integration. 2. Decide a critical principle in law enforcement: whether mob violence and community antago nism can block a court order. Specifically, the court will only be hearing arguments on the Lit tle Rock school board's request to delay integration in Central High 214 years. The reason: the opposition of Little Rock's white people to integration. But the far-reaching effect of the Supreme Court's decision whatever it is can be seen from this Several federal district judges- faced with opposition to integra tion in their districts this year in dicate they'll be guided by the court's decision. Integration in Central High be gan last September under order of federal judge. Then came mob violence and growing hostility in Little Rock. Arkansas Gov. Orval E. Faubus blocked the court order with Na tional Guardsmen who kept Ne groes out of the school. He said he did it to prevent violence. Then, to back up the court order by seeing to it the Negroes got into school, President Eisenhower had to keep federalized National Guardsmen in Little Rock all year. Some months ago the board asked, and got from, another fed eral district judge a 2Vi-year de lay. This was overruled by the U.S. 81 h Circuit Court of Appeals Thus the case came to the Su preme Court for a final ruling. The Circuit Court pointed out I lie broad implications of giving Little Rock a delay simply be cause of opposition to a court or-, dor by white people living there taking. board worked on an integration plan which it felt could be carried out peacefully, starting in 1957 and ending in 1963. The federal district judge then, after consultation with the board, approved the plan and ordered it to begin last September. It's possible but highly unlike ly the Supreme Court will permit the public opposition in Little Rock to persuade it to grant the Vh year delay. It's possible but perhaps un likely that the court will now spell out just what it means by the phrase "all deliberate speed" as a guide to -federal judges who have to make decisions on when to integrate in their districts. One thing is certain: Although the Supreme Court outlawed pub lic school segregation in 1954, in tegration has been far from speedy. The New York Times reports that of 2,892 biracial districts in this country, only 792 have been integrated. affected trees, or limbs of trees, die?

The court said a delay for Little Rock "would amount lo an open invitation to. elements in other dis tricts to overtly act out public op position through violent and un lawful means." It so happens Little Rock's Cen tral High provides a classic test of how long community opposition can delay a court order and hence law enforcement. The reason: Integration didn't begin there haphazardly but care fully and according to prescribed conditions laid down by the Su preme Court. The court, instead of saying in tegration had to begin everywhere at once, took into account the fact that getting it started one place might be more difficult than in an other because ot differences in public altitudes. So it said integration must be gin with "all deliberate speed' a carefully vague phrase and left it up to the various federal dis trict judges lo deride when inte gration in their districts should begin. The federal Judge in Little Rock didn't act arbitrarily. The school Juniper Might FROM THE BEND BULLETIN Between Bend and Redmond on U.S. Highway 97 is one of the most stately stands' of junipers known in any part of western America. The parks division of the Oregon Highway Department rec ognized this. Juniper wayside parks, unique in the west, were established. Now a "brown blight" has struck the roadside trees, some of them old when Columbus reached Amer ica. Rusty in appearance, ugly, the dead foliage hangs adjacent to the highway, like old yule finery left loo long near a fireplace. Some of Ihe roadside trees are wilted only one side. This dead foliage faces the highway. Most of the small trees appear dead from base to lop. On others, only scatlcred limbs are brown. Base foliage of other trees are brown, but their tips retain their natural hue. What is the source of this "blight?" Highway officials would like lo know. Several guesses have been advanced. Obviously most are far wrong. Certainly fumes from passing motor vehicles cannot be blamed. The "brown blight is loo localized. It appears to be con fined to the 16 miles of highway between Bend and Redmond. U.S. 20 to the east of Bend is free of the "brown dealh." No herbicides were used by either the highway department Jr utilities on the juniper route. But, one guesscr noled, possibly herbi cides were blown from a passing farm truck. However, belwccn Bend and Redmond, a soil sterilizer was used, in the roadside dirt, to pre vent the growth of weeds. Passing cars have churned up that steril ised dust. It could have come to rest on the waxy surface of the juniper foliage. This is only guess but alfect of the soil ster ilizer should be carefully studied. It has also been suggested that fumes from oiling work done on the Bend-Redmond section of the highway in July killed the juniper loliage. However, Ihe "blight" ap parently has not showed up in oth or areas where oiling has been done. No possible source of the "brown blight" should be overlooked. The region's roadside junipers, old, unique and of great interest to tourists, need all Ihe protection that can be given them. Even if it is possible lo deter mine the cause of the rusting of the purplish-green junipers, the present season must be one of watchful waiting. Will the dead leaves eventually fall and be re placed by new ones?

Even in today's slower tempo of branch plant building there are still a sizable number of compa nies looking for new locations. .Getting the two together is the trick both for the communities and for corporate management. State and local development agencies are estimated to have spent 40 million dollars last year trying to attract more industries. Even so, some industrial execu tives say many town boosters seem unaware of industry's actu al needs before it can build a successful plant. One firm has drawn up a list of these needs as a yardstick, both for comma nities and industry. A reverse switch to this is that some areas particularly rfsiden tial suburbs of big industrial cen ters protest strongly against let ting in industrial plants. In this special field there are industrial and commercial realty firms that help communities find interested corporations ' and help industries find locations and fit into the local scheme of things with minimum of friction. An industrial rule of thumb on choosing between different pros pective plant sites is offered by J. C. Cleaver, president of Clea ver-Brooks Co. of Milwaukee. It grew out of the firm's search for a site to serve its Canadian mar ket for boilers and burners. The company was flooded with letters and leaflets, some from the United States, although its announced intent was to build in Canada Cleaver's tests for choosing an industrial nesting place are these: Nearness to markets, to popula tion centers, to raw materials, t pond transnortatinn lines- labor' stability of supply, capability of being trained in skilled trades and competilive wage structures Pleasant living conditions with good schools and recreational areas, a church-going population, adequate law enforcement; non discriminatory taxes, local govern ment support and interest in new business, the citizens' sympathy for business problems, civic pride in community, enterprising press and radio, cooperation of estab lished businessmen; Availability of land to build and expand, good public utilities, and adequate services at hand for maintaining the new plant; Ana last, says Cleaver, an aura of quiet confidence in the success of the future." (He finally chose Stratford, On lario, for his $900,000 investment, Industrial relocation was run ning at a record rate before the slump. One Philadelphia special 1st in the industrial and commer cial realty field (Frank G. Bins wanger Inc.) says the search still is .fairly hefty. Un one hand, some companies old or fledgling don't need high rental space in cities and others want to lick rising transportation costs to new markets. On the oth er, many communities have tin occupied plants vacated by de parted concerns. In some cases these can be converted to office buildings and in others they ca be changed from a single plant to multi-tenant use. Communities may be seeking new industries mainly to gai new payrolls. But also industry last year paid seven billion dollars in taxes to state and local govern ments taxes that otherwise the local citizens might have had to foot themselves. Town fathers don't shrug that off. (notes rnited Kress International WITH U. S. 7TH FLEET Rear Adm.
