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.”

“YOUR PRIVATE RANKERS”
111S Main Street Phone 276-1422
The young man walked into the ser
vice station. 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
