Left to right—Miss Janie L j Civil Rights Breakthrough in the Deep South NEW YORK—History is be-j ing made this election year in j the Deep South. The Louisi ana parishes (a parish is equi- j valent to a county) of Iberville | and West Feliciana, both with' chil rights histories of regres- ! sion and violence, are in all likelihood going to be listen ing to Negro majority voices from the county government seats after the 7th of Novem ber In both quali fied Negro canffldates are run- | ning for every available office i from Justice of the Peace to State Senator, with odds heav- 1 ily weighed in their favor. Considered against the back drop of the counties political records, these victories repre sent a remarkable achieve- ' r/.ent. Only 5 years ago, Iber- j ville was a segregated parish, where the strings of political power were tightly held by! members of the white commu- J nity in the county seat of Pla quemine. There were few Ne groes registered to vote and virtually none represented in any office. Today, a town councilman a member of the school board and the poverty program di rector are among the many Negroes actively participating in county government deci sion making. Iberville holds the distinction, as well, of being the only parish in Louisiana with a Negro representative on the selective board This is all the -Meeting Continued from page 2B clave are: C. L.

Vets Questions and Answers Editor's Note: Below are au thoritative answers by the Veterans Administration to some of the many current ques tions from former servicemen and their families. Further in formation on veterans bene fits may be obtained at any VA office. Q. —I have just received my dividend check on my Nation al Service Life Insurance pol icy. This surprised me because I have not paid premiums on this policy for the past nine months because a waiver of premiums has been in force. This waiver was granted be cause I am considered to be totally disabled and unemploy able. Has a mistake been made 1 Will I have to refund the di vidend? A.—No. The payment of this dividend to you is proper. Di vidends on participating gov-1 ernment life insurance policies are payable even though the! policy is on a waiver of pre-! miums. Q —ls a veteran penalized i Says UN Worth Preserving In Spite of Its Shortcomings The United Nations, despite its many shortcomings, is very much worth preserving. Dr. M. Margaret Ball, Dean of the Duke University Woman's Col lege and a noted political scien tist, said here Monday night. Reviewing "The UN Yester day, Today and Tomorrow" for a UN Day audience, Dr. Ball said she is left with the "solid conviction" that the UN's eco nomic and social activities are essential and will douMless be continued. She said that, despite ob stacles, the UN must continue to attempt pacific settlement— preferably in accordance with both the precepts of interna tional law and the principles of the UN Charter; but said she has "no optimism' at all that the UN will implement the role that was written for it in enforcement so long as the Communists, anti-Commu istic' international chos." their present views."

A.—Veterans who were dis charged or retired for disabil ity incurred or aggravated ir. line of duty, or have a service connected disability, may be admitted to VA hospitals for disease or injury not related to their military service, if beds are available. Peacetime service, after January 31, 1955 is considered the same as war time service for purposes of hospitalization and domiciliary | caro Dr Ball, who was present in San Francisco when the UN was formed in 1945, held out optimism that the UN still has a role to play in "preventive diplomacy," yet expressed her conviction that "the UN will continue to be used by those with the votes to cast a mantle of respectability—or lack of it —over the actions to which they pertain." "While this does not leave me in a state of ecstacy over the achievements of the Unit ed Nations," she added, "it by no means leads me to conclude that it should be abandoned either in the interest of a high ly idealistic world federation or an equally supposedly 'real istic' interantional chaos." Dr. Ball said, "The combina tion of doctrinal politics with nuclear power has prevented the rapid evolution in the di rection of world order which many of us hoped for two dec ades ago. m ;• ■ Hjwv MM rjm SPLASH!
