Revised 1070 preliminary cen sus figures show. * population of 22,625 for the City of Kins ton, according to Mayor Simon C. SRterson Jr. \ This is an increase of 785 ov er the previously announced 1070 preliminary figure of 21, 840. However, the new figure is 2,194 or 8.8% below the 1960 census of 24,819. Correspondence to the Mayor from the Charlotte Regional Census Office indicates that 711 persons will be added to the -originally announced figure as a result of accurate city limit maps, which were furnished to the Census Bureau, and 74 per sons have been added so far as a result of the “Were You Counted” campaign conducted here. ,' Studies of the Kinston figures are being continued by the Cen sus Bureau. Mayor Sitterson said, “The important thing about the 785 persons added so far to' the Kinston Census is that for ten years the City will receive an estimated 010,000 to $12,000 more a year in its share of State ■collected revenues than it would have received under the original preliminary figures.” WHAT IS THE ANSWER? by Henry E. Garrett, Ph.D. PROFESSOR EMERITUS COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY AMERICAN PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION Q: Dr. Garrett, you keep stressing "genetic race differ ences" but fail to see in any thing the government issues any acknowledgement of such dif ferences. Isn't yours just an opinion? A: No, it is not an opinion. There are genetic race differ ences and that is the fact. But, so strongly is the equalitarian notion entrenched in the Fed eral bureaucracy, its fanatical uplifters will not accept the ov erwhelming evidence that such differences exist. No attention is given in any report of this evidence though more than a dozen strenuous government sponsored efforts have been con ducted to overcome obvious dif ferences existing among those who might be called “the con trol group”. All of them have failed to bring the Negro pupil up to the White norm. LASSITER IN VIETNAM Air Force Staff Sergeant Rob ert E. Lassiter, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ezell Lassiter, 311 N.

But before you reach for that bottle of fabric softener note some precaution^. Youll get the most benefit from softeners by using them properly, extension home man agement spetialists, North Car olina State University, point out. Add at the start of the final rinse, and dilute with water since dyes used in some soften ers may discolor fabrics if ap plied full strength. Adding softener with deterg ent or bleach cancels the act of the softener, and niay impair cleaning. Warm rinse water, 90 degrees and above, insures the greatest softening action. Use tne amount suggested on the label for full loads. If yoi are washing smaller loads, de crease the amount of softenei in proporton to the size of th< load. \ The softener works by coating fibers with a waxy substance This has its drawbacks as wel as advantages: absorbency ii decreased. \ To counteract this, leave ou softener occasionally; ever] fifth load or so, especially whet laundering towels and diapers There are limits to what soft eners can do. Ironing will b« easier because of the waxy coat ing, but don’t expect softeners to decrease wrinkling. And som< color change may result front frequent use of fabric softeners Continued use of softeners reduces static cling of synthe tics, PONCHO Ptrx-ONS—Latest fad fashion for theyoung generation is the poncho, interpreted here ip Cone s cot ton navy denim a& mufti-colored “ooga” prints.

He works with transparent water color in the traditional style ranging from the realistic to the impressionistic. “I’ve tried to capture a ^few of the multitude of coastal scenes and continue to find this my greatest challenge,” he states. He feels that art should record1 things, places and cus toms seen during the artist’s lifetime as an artistic history. McNeill has been admitted to membership in the Amercan Watercolor Society and has ex hibited in Atlanta, New York, Boston, Columbia, and1 in many towns and cities in the state. r r ■ V - Jk?
