Harrall Pope Would Make An Ideal Judge The Daily Record enthusiastically joins the Harnett and Greensboro bar associations in endorsing Attorney Albert Harrall Pope of Greensboro for appointment as Superior Court Judge for the Guilford district. We know of no lawyer in that district better qualified by training, experience or ability to fill the post than the Dunn native. Attorney Pope was heartily endorsed for the office by his fellow lawyers in Greensboro, then by the Harnett County Bar Association and other citizens throughout the State who know himj have joined in support of him. As the resolution unanimously adopted last week by Harnett lawyers points out, the distinguished young Greensboro attorney is an “able lawyer of the highest qualifications for the office." Harrall Pope was bom in Dunn, son of Mr. and Mrs. L. Busbee Pope, Sr., and graduated with high honors from Dunn High School, Duke University and the Duke Law School. At Duke, where requirements are unusually strict, the Dunn man managed to keep in the upper bracket of his class and was consistently among those on the Dean’s list for outstanding scholastic performance. He is a serous student of the law, thoroughly trained. Well-read and experienced in every phase of the legal field. For the past several years, he has been a member of the big law firm of Smith, Moore, Smith and Pope at Greensboro. His selection as a partner in this big law fiqm, known from coast to coast, is within itself an en dorsement and tribute to his outstanding legal ability. Aside from his experience, ability and knowledge of the law, Harrall Pope possesses the calm, dignified tem perament so badly needed by mJembers of the judiciary of North Carolina. He is also a man with a keen sense of honor, integrity, responsibility and duty who would serve in a manner that would reflect credit , distinction and dignity on that high office and the State of North Carolina. We might also point out here that Harrall Pope is not a politician. We think that fact is also in his favor, and to his credit. It is our hope that Governor Luther Hodges will see fit to appoint this distinguished lawyer to the bench. We do not believe he could make a better appointment.

Also a dress, of course. I sat there interviewing Anita Ekberg, the tall beautiful Swedish glamour doll, who flew in from Hollywood to be the Symbol of Sin at the Art Students League's Dream Ball Wednesday. She also had on a hat, a big one for a big girl and also a dress. “Debbie and I must be the only girls here wearing hats,” Miss Ek berg said, worriedly. It didn’t matter, for Sammy Jr. was so great that he overshadowed everybody. Sonja Henie sat there with Ed Wynne of the Harwyn Club, Mike Todd with Eveyn Keyes, and Jack E. Leonard, the comedian, definitely had his back up—against Marilyn Monroe’s chair. This 28-year-old genius also at tracted folks like Sid Caesar, Bob by Sherwood, and Bert Parks—and found time to ask “How do you like my new tuxedo jacket without pockets?” “Cye Martin made it,” he said, June Royals, with Mrs. Roger Col lier as co-hostess.

The subject was, “The Newcomer to City, Our Neighbor.” Mrs. Line berger of Dunn was a special guest, and after the program talked in formally about the work of the society. During the social hour the hostesses served delightful refresh ments. Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Byrd, ffrs. J. D. Pope, Mrs. Delphas Calahan and Mrs. D. H. Mathews attended the Bible School Clinic of New South River Association at Sted man Baptist Church on Monday afternoon.

Truman Capote with Irene Selznick, and Miss Terry Moore snuggling up to an unattached col umnist. The opening was so full of Big Names that when Patricia Munsel came in, a photographer turned his camera toward her and she said, concerning a man in front of her, “Go ahead and take his picture.” The man in front paused and struck a pose. “Would you get out of the way, mister?” asked the photographer. “I want the LADY’S picture.” Bashfully, the man walked on.

TUESDAY AFTERNOON, MARCH 29, 1955 ★ EDSON IN WASHINGTON ★ I Crying Need in Middle East Is Some Political Stability , s*. BY PETER EDSON MA Washington Correspondent TJ7ASHINCTON—(NEA)— It cost the United States nearly S6O ** million last year to feed Arab refugees in the Middle East. There are now over 900,000 of these refugees. The cost of their upkeep is only $1.25 a week per person. All of the United Nations, whose wards these refugees really are, agreed to contribute to their support. But most of the other nations just don’t pay their share. So Uncle Sam picks up the tab. Herded behind barbed wire in desert concentration camps, these Arab refugees are perhaps the most pitiful people in the world, outside the Iron Curtain. They are now increasing at the rate of 100,000 a year, births over deaths. When first driven out of Pales tine they numbered 650,000. Nobody wants these displaced people. There is no arable land in the area on which they can be resettled. The problem of making new homes for them—and getting them off the backs of the U. S. taxpayers at the same time—may therefore take as much as ten years to work out. i THE KEY TO THIS PLAN is to get Israel, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon to agree on harnessing and sharing the water of the Jordan River system. Preliminary blueprints for this development have been ready for several years. Engineers know just how it could be done. It would cost $l2O million. It could develop 100,000 kilowatts of electric power. . : Water stored behind the dams could irrigate 250,000 acres in the four countries. And on those acres an estimated one third of the Arab refugees could be resettled. That would be a start Sixteen months ago President Eisenhower named Eric A. Johnston as his special ambassador to try to get the four countries to agree on joint Jordan River development. . j MR. JOHNSTON HAS JUST returned from his third unsuccess ful mission to the area. In April or May he will try again. By the end of this year he feels there may be agreement. The main reason for all this dillying and dallying, however, is that the two sides—the three Arab countries on the one hand and the Israelis on the other—wanted to talk more about their war with each other than about something that might promote their com mon welfare. Eric Johnston left the Middle East just before- the recent Gaza incident broke out, in which 38 Egyptians and eight Israelis were killed. The UN Armistice commission has just held Israel responsi ble for stirring up this fuss. It will unquestionably set back the Jordan plan. But this has been typical of the entire eight-year history of Israel. Every time the Middle East begins to quiet down, some new incident is pro voked to raisb a dust storm. THE LAST TIME IT WAS Egyptian seizure of an Israeli freighter in the Suez Canal and the execution by Egypt of Israeli spies. A neutral observation might be that one side was as guilty as the other. But a few weeks ago, Washington diplomats of the Arab coun tries were reporting that the Arab League—bastion of opposition to Israel in the Middle East—was a dead duck. A little restraint on the part of the Israeli forces might have done wonders in easing the tension in this area. Before there can be any Jordan River Valley Authority to change the lot of the Arab refugees there must be some semblance ot political stability. It would be of more benefit to the Middle East if American Zionists would hold Washington conferences to pro mote this idea than to Agitate for more arms aid for Israel, as they have iust done - Hoodlums Hold Teacher, Beat ; Three Students NEW FORK (OT Ten teenage hoodlums stormed a high school classroom today. They backed a woman teacher" against a blackboard by holding a bayonet at her throat and then gave three terrified students a se vere beating. The leader of the all- Negro gang told the teacher to “keep quiet and mind your own business” while his companion methodically punched and kicked the three students.

Each club was set a new membership quota of two and will be asked to bring new members to the open house May 2, from 8 to 10 a.m. In Llllington. Mrs. Cecil Wilkins of the Friend ly Club was appointed chairman of a special committee to select and direct a money-making event which will aid the new county headquar ters. A new stove and refrigerator are needed for the new kitchen. Others who will work with her are Mrs. J. H. Poe of the Bunnlevel Club and Mrs. E. P. Granger of the Anderson Creek Club.
