According to imormed sources
in tAienUin, Murnng was told
last i'riday by his foreman,

‘laid oil" on Saturday, t'eb. 24.
Morring was leporiedly told
itiat a man had to t>e laid off
and bacumte "tiusy" didn't Uke

he would be the one. The
orders were reported to have
come down from a city council
man.
Moiring said, however, that
he hadn’t dirven one of the
garbage trucks for more than
six months. _______
It was also reported that as
a result of the sit in activiies,
students who are employed as
school bus drivers were told by
D. F. Walker, principal of the
Edenton 'High School, that they
would lose their jobs if they
were arrested for being involved
in integration activities.
On Feb. 16, following the sit- ■
in iarrests, it was reported that I
Edenton's mayor and owner o£' ’
the drug store under fire tele
phoned Morring's foreman in an
effort to determine whether
‘Hazfel Morring, one of the sit-

after an affirmative answer that
Morring was fired.

King Expresses
Disappointment
Wilh JFK Again
ATI^AMTA, Ga. — Di. Martin
Luther King -Ir., pr.sident of th;
Southern Chritsian Leadership
Conference (S C L C), expressed
strong disappointment with the
first year of the Kennedy Admin
istration and its record in civil
lights. The integration leader de
dares in the Nation magazine of
March 3rd. “In hacking away froin
an Executive Order to end dis
crimination in housing, the Presi
dent did more to undermine con
fidence in his intentions than
could be offset by a series of
smaller accomplishments during
the' year.”
Dispassionately and with objec
tively, the SCLC leader cities the
rrtttral tTrdrcisivpncss of the Pfesi
dent. He cites the silence of the
Administration on the move to
end the two-third cloture rule in
the Stnate as contributing largely
to its defeat. "Cautjous approach
of the Administration caused a
possible spectacular victory to end
in tragic defeat.” Dr. King re
minds the readers that JFK had
made a campaign pledge to fight
for thi.s change.
He continues, “It is a melan
choly fact that the Administration
is aggressively drivmg only to
ward the limited goal of token in
tegration.”

Science Today
NEW YORJC (UPl)—If in the
laboratory you can produce a
reaction in a human being's
boty by acting upon his mind,
you can figure people must be
conatatitly doing it to themselves
since tfieir mmos are exposed to
be acted upon by anything
which happens to come' along.
Dr. H. C. tietnune did it m
his laijoratory. He hypnotized a
man who was so hungry his
stomach was demonstrably in
spasm. Bethune convinced the
man there was a wonderfully
deiecta^ dinner in front of
him and he was eating ^t. It
was entirely a hallucination
but his stomach contractions
(.eased.
He hypnotized other persons
and told them that intense heat
was . being directed against
their ears. There was no direct
ed heat at all, of couise; just
the same, their ears became hot
and tnis was factually demon
strated wiui thermometers.
Cites Skin Disbases
All tliis makes it reasonable
to suppose Bethune has exposed
in all nakedness the working
parts-of psychosoma tion which
give untold .millions of people
endless- troubite, to say nothing
of the physicians they befuddle
with their- mind-induced physi
cal ailments. The mind believes
its body to be ill, you see, and
l^e body accommodataps wiith
symptoms.
The best-known and most-
studied examples of this are in
certain skin diseases. The ugly
eruptions are on the surface for
anyone to see. No one could pos
sibly dispute the physicalness
of the ailment. Yet it has been
proved that people csn pri
the symptoms with their minds.
Bethune was working iri the
main scientific stream of psycho
somatic investigations in his lab
oratory at the University of
Eklinburgh, Scotland. A current
theory is that "“organ inferior
ity,” either,, inherited or acquir
ed, is involved. This “inferior
organ,'*'whether skin or stomach
or some other part, becomes the
target of misdirected emotional
"high drive”.
Bethune and his associate.
Or. Cecil B. Kidd> applied his
laboratory feats to four persons
with plainly physical skin
diseases which had persisted
for years. Sortie had relatives
given to the same diseases and
one could suppose nothing could
be more physical.
Divert Emotional Drive
The four were hypnotized by
one. By suggestion made to
thenj in their hypnotized states,
the scientists endeavored to
divert the emotional “high
drive” away from the target
organ, the skin. They tried to
do it by distorting the (iSfrcept-
iona of the four of themselves.
In all four the “cure” worked
• tiie skin eruptions cleared.
*Now, these skin diseases have
t>een “cured” by hypnotic sug
gestion before but the method
has never shown consistent re
sults. That is, it works in some
but fails in most. The scientists
emphasized in rej>orting to the
technical journal. The lancet
that they did not claim real
cures.
"All these patients still have
this underlying skin anomaly or
organ inferiority which predis-
powe them to their own particu
lar malady," they said.
What they had done was to
directemotional “high drive"
away from the target organ by
inducing perceptual distortion
undlhr hypnosis. In their words
ttey exposed “a mechanism
whereby psychological stresses
can produce skin leasions in
antas of somatic weakness.” It
now remain* to be seen if other
sciontista can exploit the “me
chanism.”

Two Jailed
Visit to Louisiana
Sit-in Prisoner
BATON ROUGE, La. — Twg,
young leaders of the integration-
movement came here, In the
tradition of Biblical teaching, to
visit a man in prison - and end
ed up in jail themselves on
charges of criminal anarchy.
The two are Charles McDew,
chairman of the Student Non
violent Coordinating Com
mittee, the Southwide organiza
tion which coordinates the stu-,
deiit anti-segregation protest
movement, and Robert Zellner,
a staff member of the same or
ganization. McDew is Negro,
and Zellner is white.
Baton Rouge was recently the
scene of large student demon
strations against segregation, but
McDew and Zellner were not
here to demonstrate. They just
came, on February 17, to visit
a fellow student leader, Dion
Diamond, in the East Baton
Rouge, Parish Jail. J
Diamond, also a staff mem
ber of the Student Nonviolent
Coordinating Committee, had
been jailed during the demon
strations on charges of vagrancy,
trespassing, and disorderly con
duct. He has been in jail over
three weeks, under $6,000 bond.
MoDew and Zellner arrived in
town in the late afternoon and
went to the jail to inquire as
to when visiting hours were.
Finding that the visiting day
was not until the following
Tuesday, they decided they
could not stay but asked jail
4t- thay -eould leave
Diamond some fruit and books.
The officials told them they
could. .
They left the Jail to purchase
the fruit and books, returned and
left them for Diamond with a
note. Just as they were ready
to. leavfe the. jail and leave town,
they were stopped by officials
and* questioned.
After questioning, they were
booked on vagrancy charges -
despite the fact that MoDew
had almost $200 with him. Later
in the evening a lawyer check
ed on their status and found that
charges of criminal anarchy had
been place against them. They
were held under $7,000 bond
each. Criminal anarchy carries
a possible 10-year sentence in
Louisiana.
The Student Nonviolent Co
ordinating Committee im
mediately -wired the U. S.
Justice Department asking it to
intervene in the case. The wire
charged that officials of West
Baton Rouge Parish are trying
to intirWate the student com
mittee ^^resentatlves by “H-
l^ally arresting them on trump
ed-up charges and then holding
them under excessive bail.”
“The U. S. Justice Depart
ment must act,”'the wire said,
“to enjpin these officials frOm
arbitrarily arresting those work
ing to register voters and im
prove race relations.”

to Handle Women: Or,
It's Hopeless; Just Giye Up
By DICK WEST
WiASHlNGTON (UPI)—While
leafing through a stack of con
gressional newsletters, I ran
across an item that set me all
a twitter.
The Small Business Admini
stration, it said, had published
a pamphlet explaining “How to
manage women.”
Now here, I exclaimed to my
self, is a federal agency that
understands the meaning of
public service. Rarely does one
find the government showing
such an awareness of what the
citizenry needs.
The SBA pamphlet obviously
would be oi value not only to
small businessmen, but to large
businessmen and even non-busi
nessmen, possibly including
newspapermen.
Picks Up Copy
I mean, it is common know
ledge that women have ijeen
getting more unmanageable by
the hour. Hee?ing there
was not a moment to lose, I
laeat it over to the SBA head
quarters to pick up a copy of^
the pamphlet. |
I found upon mv arrival that
a lot of other male minds had
Ijeen running in the same chan
nel. The agency already had ex
hausted its supply of tht pam
phlets and had a big backlog of
orders on file,
Fortunately. I was able to bor
row a copy and immediately un
dertook ‘to memorize Ita con
tents, I wanted to be well
briefed on the subject betora
I went home that night.
Sad to relate, the panu>hlet is
a bit -too narrow in scope for
my purposes. It deals primari
ly with managing women ••m-
ployes, rather tlian with women
in general.
Nevertheless, is sets fOTth
some broad princi^ls, no pun
intended, that can be applied
non-commercially by sut^tltut-
ing the word “husband” whera
the word “employer” appears.
Women Are Difforoni
“Women,” the panti^lei ntyn, •
“are different. ’They tend to per- ?
sonalize situations . . .
women magnify minor detallp
because they often ftel they ara
the center around which other
peofde revolve.”
Women like to be praised itkd
dislike t>eing corrected, particu
larly in front of other women. -
They become annoyed when, ]
rushed and are touchy about
working overtime.
