These, then, are the drlvios forces which underlie and domi nate recent developments. By now, they have Hecome meshed into a sort of dynamic pattern which is discernible in the Littlei Rock crisis and can be .expected to be repeated again and again. Negroes press forward. They are blocked by state governments. A crisis develops. The adminis tration in Washington is forced to step in and take the side of the Negroes. Limited gains are won. And then the process be gins all over again. The motor of this process ia evidently the Negro liimself, and the pace of developments depends largely on his energy and persistence, his ability to throw up an appropriate leader^ slUp, his skill in attracting growing proportion of the white community to his cause. But whatever the pace may be, it is clear that both the direction of developments and the final goal are now determined beyond any possibility of change. -Ufe- (continued from page 2) word, the barbed admonition, sometimes carrying with it a veiled threat; or, if not that, re vealing a nasty spirit. Human nature in its raw, unregenerated ^te was not made to accept sucILjwitb mild reaction. In fact, the i^nediate reaction, so far as most sersons are concerned, in- volveA||triking back, angry re taliation. This may be suppress ed; and, 1 feel, it usually is. But the suppression itself is no per sonality-building form of be havior. Suppression involves ast inner-, activity held i sliraining will is not inoved by kindly feelings, but rather some sort of fw. In fact, the person who em ploys his tiuM suppressing feel ings of hatred and vindictive ness is like a man standing on the lid of a pressure-filled re ceptacle. He is not free for more gainful activities, for one thing. And, for another, he is in dan ger. For, unless the tensions be neath the lid subside, an inevi table-explosion must follow. And who, in his right mind, wants to be standing on the lid of an exploding body? The safe way out in the face of situations calculated to stir your feelings and arouse resent ment is to dismiss them from your thoughts. And that is but another way of saying, pay no attention to such situations. Re fuse to let them occupy the cen-i ter of your attention, to concen trate your thought upon them. The Danger The resentful man is a poten tial Frankenstein. Look the word up. Mr. Webster gives two definitions: 1. In Mrs. Shelly’s romance Frankenstein, a student who created a monster and gave it life. The monster inflicted terrible punishment upon ita creator. 2. Any work or creation that ruins its creator. The papers carried a day or two ago a story of a youth, 17 years of age who killed his mother in cold blood. He shot her twice in the apartment in which they Uved. He resented his mother’s rebuke given when he attempted to call a girl friend over the phone. The neighbors said he was a model youth, gen tle, weU-mannered and the like. Maybe, he was. But he did ao excellent job—no, not excellent, rather a horrible, disgusting, re- renuint permanent or not, th« fact is that it did exist for ona frightful moment, long enough to snuff out a human life, mother's Ufe at that. Should tiUa lad repent his foul deed ioi bitter tears, neVer would they suffice to blot out the stain of matricide upon his record, nor wash from his memory the pic ture of a dying mother who lost the life she loved because -of his unreasoning reaentment. One Guarantee Such violence, or violence of any tyi;)e, one may say, is so far bdlow my ideals and charactw that never would 1 be guilty of suchf A nice declaration, that is. dut so much can take place be tween declaration antf pe^r- mance or non-performance. And what takM place depends upon what goes on in our imagina tion, what occupies the center of our attention. It Is well not to forget that ^ Cali me dogmatic, if you will. But tlie man who thinks vio lence, feels violence, and, in the field of imagination, practices violence is capable of overtly committing violence. The imagi nation is the cradle in which deeds are nurtured into the vi gor essential to express them selves in behavior. The only guarantee that any man has he will not commit certain deeds ia to shut out of the field of atten tion the materials out of which evil deeds are fuhioned. The Motive Retaliation may take many forms that fall far short of tak ing a Ufe. But whatever the form, it is always calculated to hurt. It may be a word spoken where it can do harm, or deeds of spite and malice to cause an' noyance and embarrassment, “Getting back” at one or “get ting even” is what we caU it. ln( reaUty, however, it is more ttiaA that. It’s motive ia to hurt, to match hurt with greater hurt. Dr. Howard J. Chidley in lecture at NCC, told the story of a man who bought a smaU railroad so that he could fire a conductor who had treated htn\ with insolence. Quite a price tliat was to pay to satisfy hurt feelings. But, even so, it was ciieaper than buying a gim. sWflclent Beason As we have noted, it is no easy matter to dismiss unplea sant experiences from our think ing. But when we consider tbei damage we do to ourselves by All But One Tarheel County Okays Heart Fund Campaign Youth Held For Rape In Fla.

C. License to soUcit contributions to the Heart F\md in all one hundred counties of the state has been granted to the North Caro lina Heart Association, it was annoimced today by W. Jamra Logan, executive director of the Association, The Ucense is issued annually by the State Board of Public Wewfare over the signa ture of Commissionr EUen Win ston. "We are gratified that the State Board of PubUc welfare, which also received a favorable recommndetaion regarding oiu: re-Ucensing from the State Board of Health, granted our appUcation to ask for pubUc support of our program,” said Logan. "We plan to soUclt'funds in every communty in North Carolina.” The Heart Fund drive wiU take place in February through out the nation, Logan explained. "This year, in addition to Heart Sunday, the house-to-house can vass which falls on February 23, there wiU be another target date February 4th—^for business so- Ucitations. About one third ot the counties already have their campaign organizations work ing,” Logan added. "With diseases of the heart and blood vessels responsible for over half the deaths in every county of North Carolina, peo ple are increasingly aware ot the importance ot the Heart pro gram of research, education and community services, Logan said. “As Medical Science keeps perfecting new weapons to fight this Number One KiUer, the pubUc is coming to regard a con tribution to the Heart Fund as a form of insurance for themselves and their children,” he conclud ed. Ad Agency Has New Manager NEW YORK Joseph B. LaCour, veteran ad- veiftising industry figure, be comes general manager of Inter state United Newspapers, Inc., December 30, it ha« just been announced. Interstate United Newspapers is publishers’ representative for a ntunber of America’s leading Negro newspapers and has offices in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. LaCour was formerly general manager ot Associated Publish ers, Inc., with which company he Race Relations Report To Be Later This Year TUSKEGEE, ALA. Turbulent cross currents marked the pattern of race re lations during .1957. Rapidly moving and significant year-end occurrences require advancing the . release date of the Forty- fourth Annual Tuskegee Insti tute Race Relations Report to January IS, 1858. This change in the release date from January 1, makes jmssible coverage ot all major developments tor the en tire year. Dr. L. H. Foster, President ot Tuskegee Institute, in making this announcement stated that the Institute Report would in clude a more intricate media analysis than In prior years. This will take into account tite strong propaganda offensive launched by segregationists during the waning weeics of the year. The January 15 release will be a summary based on a detail ed study ot legal action and ot the unprecedented growth and activity of voluntary groups during 1957. Preliminary information from the Race Relations Report shows that not since the 1954 United States Supreme Court ruling have more significant develop- ments In race relations occurred. NEW YORK An 18 year old boy held incom- mtuicado in a Lake County, Fla., jail for aUeged rape since Dec. 19 was released on Dec. 24, ac cording to information received by Gloster B. Current, NAACP director of branches. Tiie youth's release foUowed a conference between an NAACP attorney and Sheriff WiiUs J. McCall on December 23. The youth is Melvin Hawlcins, Jr., a relative of VirgU Hawldns, who is a plaintiff in a suit to en ter the University of Florida law schooL -r According to a member of young UawlKins’ family, the boy did not leave his house the night the aUeged rape took place. In addition, the woman who stated she liad been attacked said she had never before seen the youth when asked to identify him as her assaUant. Young Hawldns was arrested by Sheriff McCaU, who became notorious during the Groveland, Fla., case in which four youths were accused of raping a young housewife. Driving tWo ot the accused youths to their second trial, Sheriff McCall shot one prisoner fatally and severely wounded another on a deserted road at night. The sheriff claim ed that the two handcuffed youths had attacked him. N. Y. Governor Says No Deal NEW YORK Gov. Harriman of New York warned Democrats recently there can be no compromise” on the party’s civil rights platform in the 1960 presidential cam paign. Even a Southern spUt from the Democratic party, Harriman declared, "wiU have to be faced ln_pref«*^ce. to a compvomise ot the pany’s basic principles.” The Governor’s remarks ap-, peered in an interview publish ed in the new issue of LOOK Magazine.

Law Teachers Analyze Issues In Little Rock ANN ARBOR When a state permits mobs to deprive an individual of his rights, use of federal power may be legally justified — even though outside help is not re quested by a state. This is one ot the principal conclusions ot a 20-page com ment on the use of federal troops in Little Rock which appears in the current Michigan Law Re view. Its authors are Robert H.

Their analysis is belieVed to be the first f^-scale, independent discussion on the use ot troops to enforce federal laws to appear in a legal journal since Little Rock. EUiott and Singer maintain there Is Uttle legal question con cerning the President’s authority to send troops to Arkansas. Both the Constitution and laws passed by Congress provide this power. More difficult, from a con stitutional standpoint, is what the authors describe as the "state action” problem. ittle Rock Ki Get Xmas Gifts WASHINGTON The nine Negro students and Mrs. Daisy Bates, who braved the recent Little Rock school integra tion crisis, were given a nation wide Christmas party by Deltat Sigma Sorority’s 20,000 mem bers. Numerous gifts, Including money, clothing, Jewelry and books—valued already at sever al thousand dollars—continue to pour into Little Rock from 243 Delta chapters throughout the country.

Union Theological Head Brands Gov. "Irresponsible Demagogue' MONTXAGLB, TENN. Governor Marvin Griffin ot Georgia was charged by Dr. Reinbold Nieb\ibr of Union Theo logical Seminary with "irrespon sible demagoguery.” In a statement signed by Mon- signor John O'Grady, Eleanor Roosevelt, Lloyd K. Garrison, and Dr. Niebuhr, the Georgia Governor’s Commission on Edu cation was criticised for adopting the ^ngerous technique ot charging that the participants who attended the widely adver tised seminar on "The South Tbdnidng Ahead” at the High lander Folk School, Monteagle, Tennessee, were communist in spired and led.
