She offered several suggestions as to ideas that must be kept in mind when arranging flowers for church. She noted that first one any rules and regulations pertain ing to the use of flowers. Also to be considered she said, are the in terior architecture of the church, the color of the walls and carpet and the hues of the stained glass windows. She cautioned the members to Bennett, Jackie Epps, Juanita j remember that in placing flowers Floyd, Adria Reed, Helen Cromer, in a church one should remember Fannie P.

Truly an informative and most interesting paper. Mesdames Ralph B. Baker, Wal ter Summer and R. D. Wright gave some of the highlights of the recent State UDC convention in Columbia: of the fine impres sion made by Mrs. Robert Smith, President General, who was hon ored guest during the convention. She was the featured speaker on opening evening, her subject being “Our Heritage.” At the morning business session, she emphasized the many important activities of the organization, and urged the chapters to stand together with a will to work for each of these. Since this was not an election year, the only officers to be in stalled were the Directors of the six Districts who are elected by their respective District Confer ences in the Spring. Among these six, was Mrs. Walter Summer (Mary Baker Summer) the new Director for Ridge District, which includes Newberry, Saluda, Aiken, Greenwood, Abbeville and Edge- field counties. Mrs. R. D. Wright conducted the Installation service. Mrs. E. E. Westwood brought to the meeting the beautiful ster ling silver trophy offered this year for the first time by Mes dames Clem Youmans, Chris Kaufmann and Eugene Yates in memory of their sister, Miss Pearl West, to the chapter doing espec ially outstanding work, and won by Drayton Rutherford Chapter. The members were delighted to be thus honored, and deeply apprec iate the generosity of these New berry daughters in memory of their fine sister so generally lov ed and admired. The members gave a sincere welcome to two new members, Mrs. Jack Jenkins and Mrs. E. B. Carlisle. On arrival at the meeting, the members were served hot ham biscuits, cheese patties, fruit cake, toasted pecans and coffee. The December meeting will be with Mesdames Ralph B. Baker, Ralph P.

It is a great privilege and honor to be a doctor’s wife and a member of the Medical Auxiliary. This privilege brings the responsibility of: “Assisting the Medical Society in its program for the advance ment of medicine and public health; “Cultivating friendly relations and promoting mutual understand ing among families of physicians; “Acting as liaison between the medical profession and the public -telling the story of medicine to Newbe^-Saluda” Couity 1^. all organizations with which you are affiliated.” Mrs. Wiseman Sr. reported on e diinidi-cu. . the Fall meeting of the East Pied- She stressed the .mportance of j mont district _ she gtated that two keeping informed in the field of legislation.

Mrs. Baker placed particular emphasis on the “baby project” of the medical auxiliary—interna tional health. This is a two-year- old program which is an effort to communicate around the world through service to bring medical relief. The hospital ship, HOPE, spends a year in backward coun tries training personnel. The ship will spend the coming year in Ec uador. Medical auxiliaries are as sisting in this program by collect ing drug samples, medical books and magazines, and instruments. These are sent to World Medical Relief in Detroit which serves as a clearing house. In the mental health field, Mrs. Baker mentioned the newest pro gram, suicide prevention. Suicide is the second leading cause of death among teen-agers, falling only behind accidents, she said. An excellent film, ‘“The Cry for Help,” is available as a training aid for interested people. She asked for the cooperation and help of the medical auxiliary in an immunization program for tetanus. Sixty percent fatality among persons with tetanus should make all stop and realize the im portance of such a campaign, she stressed. Mrs. V .W. Rinehart was hostess at a delightful luncheon following the meeting. A beautiful fall ar rangement of mums was used as a centerpiece.

SENATOR STRO HURMOND Reports PEOPLE *Civil Rights* Backlash ONE OF THE MAJOR con cerns on Capitol Hill is what effect all the political play over “civil rights” legislation will have at the ballot box. Mainy from outside the South who may have previously favored bring ing the South “to heel” are tak ing a different view when they are now faced with racial prob lems of their own. After all, it is easy to propose idealistic- sounding solutions for others. FOR INSTANCE, the Gover nor of Minnesota recently testi fied in favor of giving the Fed eral Government authority to dictate to private businessmen to whom they must sell and serve. He said they were having some difficulties in enforcing integration in Minnesota but that generally these problems were confined to the Minneapo- lis-St. Paul area. I asked him what percentage of his popu lation was non-white. He said 7/10 of 1% and that most of this non-white population is cen tered in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. HIS TESTIMONY proved that the practical difficulties attend ant to integration vary in direct proportion to the ratio of white to non-white population in a given area. This is essentially why segregation persists all over the world. SINCE THE LAST “civil rights” legislation was debated, many changes have taken place. Some of these changes have ex posed many to the onus of total integration foi the first time. Many Negroes have migrated to other parts of the country. They now constitute 54% of the pop ulation of Washington, D. C. and account for 85% of the District’s school population This latter .figure has been brought about by the mass exo dus of whites to the suburbs In fact, a recent Washington Post article complained that de segregation in Washington has now brought about resegrega tion. IN SOME NORTHERN met ropolitan areas, idealists have sought to rectify the integration imbalance brought on by neigh borhood segregation and the ex odus by hauling school children all the way across town to force integration. This has caused tre mendous resentment. For exam pie, a lady running for the school board in Boston against this idea finished far ahead of everyone in the field, with an NAACP candidate running last. Likewise in Detroit and else where there already have been political repercussions against efforts to force integration both locally and through the Presi dent’s Executive Order. PEOPLE ARE ALSO fed up with the demonstrations and riots which have been taking place in the North as well as the South, and on TV all over the country. Even Martin Lu ther King recognizes that his tactics have cooled Yankee ar dor for integration. Another factor in this is public concern over revelations of communist support and inspiration for King’s agitation. RESIDENTS of northern met ropolitan areas now find the finger of integrationist scorn pointed at them as well as the South. The “civil rights” back lash is being strengthened also by a realization that the “civil rights” program before Con gress is only about 5% civil rights and 95% power grab, and that it extends from public life into the basic humar right of private property. The talk of compromise legislation eman ating from the House Judiciary Committee isn’t fooling too many. The only compromise of significance is the addition of the Republican Party’s name to share in the blame for foisting this “civil rights” fraud on the American people. IN MAKING SPEECHES out side the South on this subject and in reading a tremendous in flux of mail from all over the country, I have found an amaz ing amount of anti-integration sentiment. Other legislators have likewise noticed this, and are concerned. Many, however, would feel compelled to vote for the legislation on a direct vote because of the pressures of pow er politics. In the Senate, how ever there could be no direct vote if the move to shut off de bate fails. This is one of the primary reasons why any hope of stopping or considerably al tering t! is legislation rests with this great forum of debate.
