Hollings, Stennis offer plan for ^soarpaation The following statement was made last weekend by Senator K F Hollings: "I have joined Senator Sten nis in sponsoring the freedom-of- choice desegregation plan as is presently the law' in the state of New York I believe it is unfair to allow constitutionally justified freedom-of-choiee inte gration of schools in the North but ban it in the South ' 1 do not contend that the fivil Rights Act should be by passed However, it has been the policy of the United States government, through the Department of Heabh, Educa tion and Welfare and the De part' ><'nt of Justice, to apply regulations in the South which are not used in the North. The first amendment which I have co-sponsored would ap ply nationwide the New York Plan for school desegregation, which would deny the assign ment of a child to a school against his or his parents choice. The second amendment would require that the federal govern ment apply uniformly and nat ionwide the rules it is now ap plying only in the South for school desegregation. It is not fair to allow schools m New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio. Michigan and other states to run a school system with virtually all-black schools while the South has been forced to eliminate any vestige of a dual system. Yet this has been the practice of our government ever since the 1954 Supreme Court decision. “I believ in freedom-of- choice. If our federal govern ment is going to allow freedom- of-choice in the North, it should be permitted in the South. If not, then it should be denied nationally.” Daniel W.

Seeing his friend who owned the station in the rear, he yell ed out: “Hi. Sam. How’s business?” From the back of the station came the reply: “As usual.” Sitting down next to the phone, the young man yelled again: “Mind if I use your phone?” “No, go ahead and help yourself,” came the reply. Made A Call The young man picked up the phone directory, thumbed through it’s pages until he came to the correct page. Placing the directory next to the phone, he dialed the number. About that time the owner of the station walked up and sat down next to the young man. “How are you doing with that new boat and motor, Bob?” asked the owner. “Folks been telling me that they are seeing a lot of Bob Smith out at the lake hauling in the big ’uns. Sure sounds like you are getting your money’s worth out of it,” Sam con tinued. Bob’s party on the other end of the line had answered by that time and he held up his hand motioning for Sam to be quiet. As Bob started talking, Sam noticed that he was disguising his voice to keep from being recognized. Wondering what it was all about, Sam listened closely to the conversation. “Is this Woodruffs Store?” asked Bob in the disguised voice. From the other end came the reply, “Yes, it is.” “Could I speak to Mr. Woodruff,” Bob asked in the muffled tone. “This is Mr. Woodruff speaking,” said the party on the other end. “Mr. Woodruff, I was wondering about a possible job with you. Several months ago I saw an ad of yours in the paper where you said you needed someone to work there in your store as a salesman. I have some experience as a salesman and believe I could do you a top notch job,” said Bob as he continued to use the fake voice. Job Filled ‘T’m sorry,” Mr. Woodruff replied, “but that job has been filled for about six months now. Fellow by the name of Bob Smith contacted us and we hired him right away.” “Is that right?” Bob continued. “Sure hate that. Would have loved to have work ed for you. Maybe this Bob Smith fel low isn’t doing too well and you could let him go and let me have that posi tion?” Bob asked while Sam stared at him with puzzlement. “No. I’m afraid I couldn’t do that,” Mr. Woodruff re plied. “Bob Smith is doing us a real fine job. Fact about the business is that he is one of the best salesmen we have ever employed.” “Well, I ap preciate talking to you Mr. Woodruff and I may call you again in the future,” Bob said as he hung up the phone. Sam couldn’t wait to ask the ques tion. “What in the world were you doing? I thought you had been work ing down at Woodruff’s for about six months now,” said Sam. “I have,” re plied Bob. “Then why did you call about a job and talk in an unnatural voice?” asked Sam. “Well, Sam,” said Bob, “you might say I was just check ing up on myself.” I guess that’s something we all need to do pretty often. —FIVE STAR HAPPY BIRTHDAY Feb. 8: Mrs. Dorothy F.
