By WnXIAM A. SHIRES

COUNCIL The new Legtsla-tlve Council, with exactly equal representation from Houae and Senate, alxnoet stumbled at the atartlng gate.

Its signals were crossed. Six senators stood for Sen. Irwin Belk of Mecklenburg and six representaUvea stood for Rep. Hugh M. Johnson of Duplin and a deadlock occurred on the very first vote taken.

The council then groped clum* ally for an emtmrrasslngly long hour before reaching agreement on the first Item on the agenda. electim of Johnson as permanent chairman.

The hour Included a recese, motions and counter motions, InfOTmal huddles and even a

'ought to go ahead and follow provisions of the bill providing for A chairman and vice chairman. Yow said co-chairmen would not be effective. But when It appeared that both Johnson and Belk might vote for the co-chairmen Idea,, senators decided more caucusing getting together In a private huddle was necessary.

Yow moved for another recess, then Jumped up and walked out for a drink of water anyway when the motion was defeated on voice vote. Other senators quickly followed Yows walkout. Including even Belk who explained to the House members, youll have to excuse me for a minute.

MANEUVER Even then toe moaeuverlng was not over. Another deadlock occurred, a 5-5 tie vote, 00 electicm o vice chairman.

Johnson brdke this tie by voting for Belk. Moments Uter. however, Belk resigned as vice chairman and turned the Job over to his senate colleague. R.E. Brantley of P(dk.

Sen. Cicero Yow of New Hanover had nominated Belk for chairman. But after J(tonson's lection, Rep. HoUls M. Owens of Rutherford put Belk In nom-tnatUm for vice chairman. And Yow countered this by nomina Ung Brantley.

This puzzled the House members. Rep. Sam Whitehurst said he wished the Senate members would agree on one of their number for vice chairman, and explained that he had committed

senators preferred to talk things over in private, without reporters even if It had to be around toe Legislative buUdlng pool.

House members refused to budge. Rep. Gordon Greenwood 0 Buncombe said bluntly, we want an opening meeting.*' , .

Belk then asked to be excused fitxn voting, and the S-5 tie resulted.

CALLED Senate president Clarence Stone, who called the Initial meeting and presided until Johnson's election, almost declared Belk elected chairman before he was challenged by Bouse members.

Stone called for the vote on chairman in reverse order by ayes and noes, and when there were several ayes and no audible noes when Belks name was called. Stone said It appeared Belk was elected.

House members immediately objected, ccwitendlng this was not proper procedure, and asked for a standing vote when each name was called.

The standing vote was taken and the tie resulted.

Someone suggested the group move on to electing a vice chairman, but senators asked for a caucus. Stwie allowed a 10 minute recess.

MOTIONS House Speaker Clifton Blue threw the Council Into another Impasse with a motion that co chairman be elected to serve until a permanent chairman could be chosen.

The Council also delayed for the time being the matter of employing an executive secretary, although It did authorize Johns(M3 to hire necessary clerical help.

ACTIONS The only other definite action during the first meeting Included authorizing Johnson and Brantley to appoint a committee to discuss new legislation pn compulsory auto liability Insurance fonris with officials of the department of motor vehicles. This was requested by Whitehurst.

Johnson told the Council he felt it ought to keep hands off any studies of the problem of Senate redlstricting and "just let It alone pending a special se.s-sim of the General Assembly. The majority agreed. It also felt that there was no need for the Council Itself to meet avaln until after the special session, probably In September. It asked that 10 days notice be given, and that the Council arrange to hold Its meetings on Fridays.

MEXICO CITY Turning back the clock a matter of twenty-odd years is an interesting experiment. And every joint creaks while you are discovering the pure truth of things.

All of this occurred at the huae airport here where Captain Vlareal Is attempting to make an aviator of your flying scribe.

So we climbed In the captain.s flying machine the Cuatito I Little Friend I) and he asked. Have you ever flovm before?

Well naturally. When I was wearing coonskln caps at Texas U. I learned to fly some kind of a craft that had a washing machine motor. And a few. years later I took it up again down here in the old Stearman biplane.

In those days flying was sort of like present day driving. The man who got his machine .on the runway first hit the gas pedal. And maybe an eager beaver on the other side of the field was taking off at a 90 degree angle so .somebody had to duck while the other pulled up

Today they got rules for flying. With everrihlng from put-puts to Jet.s landing or taking off every few minutes, you need more than hand signals.

Taxi down to the strip and wait for authorization from the control tower. the captain said.

And I applied some throttle.

The captain smiled with tolerance and eased up on the gas. We dont want to take off here. It is only the taxi strip "

Obviously his plane w'as not as cooperative as the types we flew 25 years ago. It has built-

in i^ules of some kind.

Then he leaned over and recited some instructions and we go off the earth with the captains assisatace. Spmethlng like 90 per cent, to be exact.

And as we wobbled along through the atmosphere, the captain nudged me gently and asked, Have you noticed that mountain?

I said I had indeed and it was mlghtly pretty.

And he said, It is absolutely gorgeous and you are going to hit it if you dont start a right turn.

So I pushed everything but the starter button and the captain tunied a sort of mauve color and said, "Heaven, I said a turn. Not a wing-over.

And I said, "It aint the wing-over. capn. Its the hangover.

I attended a press conference last night.

The captain got us right side up and on a course again and began explsdnlng about the ball and needle. When you turn, the ball has to stay Inside the marks like a carpenters level and the needle shows how much you are heading in which direction. Something like that.

After roller coasterlng all over the heavens he said we better go back to the field and I tried to keep the ball and needle in place but we almost fell out the windows a couple of times.

All the way it was, "Wait a minute, youre going 45 degrees off head back on two-forty.

And I asked. "You mean follow Highway 240?

The captain said. I mean two-forty degrees. You dont say east and west any more. Its all degrees these days.

Came then the let-down.

cut-off point for appllcatiwi of the proposed bill against racial discrimination in places of public accommodation.

This seems necessary if the bill is to receive a serious hearing hi the Senate, considering the possibilities of a filibuster against it. Even the problem of finding an acceptable cut-off formula may not prove amenable in the remainder of the congressional session.

The administration bill proposes to require service to all comers.in establishments doing a "substantial amount of interstate business. But this term is extremely vague and would leave an Inordinate amount of interpretation to the courts.

As a means of making clear that small family - run boardinghouses aie not lumped with big hotel and restaurant chains. Mr. Kennedy has suggested a dividing line based on the gross

states might be omitted from the law, such as barber shops, bowling alleys, and doctors offices though it might make some difference if a barber shop were near an airport.

At the same time. Sen. John Sherman Cooper of Kentucky questions the advisability of basing this law on the federal authority over interstate commerce. He would prefer to have Congress operate under the 14th Amendment as in other civil-rights legislation.

These ai-e extremely complex questions. They call for close legal study to forecast with any reasonable certainty how thy would work in practice. Much less difficult subjects haVe profited from a few years rather than a few months of analysis and debate. Meanwhile, if federal action is deliberate, much can be accomplished and is being accomplished by local negotiation.

Public Forum

TO THE EDITOR;

As a taxpayer of Pitt County I am especially interested in our Hospital. In your June 19 Issue, I read the following head line, "Hospital Trustees Act To Remedy Financial Griefs. I noticed that one of .t h e i r "Griefs was only a measly Thirty Thousand Dollar deficit. I havent seen in the Paper where the Trustees did any thing about decreasing it, except ask for a higher Tax Levy.

Another thing that is hard for me to understand is. if it (The Hospital) is so far behind, how can It afford to employ a full time Bill Collector at Three Hnudred Dollars a month.

Also I notice that they are asking for another small item

of only Five Thousand Dollare. to employ an Efficiency Expert. I though that was the duty of the Trustees.

I think that the tax payers would have a much better feeling toward the Hospital if they knew what their money was being spent for. I think that it would be nice if the Trustees would issue an itemized Statement showing how much each person employed by the Hospital is paid. I dont suppose that any one in the County knows how much the Janitor is paid except those who have access to the books. I am sure that the above Information would be highly appreciated by all concerned.

In a less favorable positicm In competing for top-notch faculty members.

This means that it must rely on its own practices and procedures to develop a highly motivated, enthusiastic and capable faculty for its students.

Dr. W. Starr Miller, chairman of the education division of the Georgia Southern College at Statesboro, recently took a look at small liberal arts colleges in the South to see what they were doing to improve and enrich their faculties. He published his observations in a recent report which ccmcluded that not many creative programs were in evidence. However, there are many relevant practices in use.

The report explained the small colleges special need for faculty development and then described methods used by these colleges. Some of the methods wUl be discussed in next weeks column.

A small colleges dependence on faculty development stems from the nature of the small college itself.

There are more than 200 four-year liberal arts colleges with fewer than 2,000 students in the South. Enrollment in these schools ranges from less than 250 to 2,000 for an average enroU-of some 816 students. They employ, on the average, about 59 faculty members during a year, but some of them have a. faculty of less than 30.

A typical college loses some 10 per cent of its faculty each year to other opsitions. Salary is a factor in this turnover the average nine-month salaary for full professors in the small colleges ranged from $4.700 to $10,000 with an average salary of $6,650 at the time of the survey in 1961. Those figures are considerably less than the average for liberal arts colleges in the rest of the nation and less than the average for universities whether in the South or the nation.

In a small college some 30 per cent of the faculty members hold an earned Ph.D., but some faculties had fewer than 20 per cent with Ph.D.s and others more than 70 per cent. Colleges with higher salaries tended to have proportionately more Ph.D.s than those with lower salaries.

Adding to the problem of salary is the small colleges em-hasis on teaching, which conflicts with a current pattern of professional success in American higher education. That pattern places more emphasis on advanced subject matter, graduate students, research and publication.

With at! of these factors to work with and against, the college dean, usually responsible for leading efforts at faculty development, faces an increasingly difficult task.

A Goldwatcr candidacy, says one of my columnlstic colleagues, "will autcxnatically make the Republican Party into toe white mans party.

This is (me (^inicm. The American Fascists who picketed the Goldwater rally in Washing-t(m. D. C.. (HI July 4, had a different point of view. Using some ci the most scurrilous placards that have been flashed before human eyes since toe days of Hitlers Nuremburg rallies, the American Fascists, advertising themselves as the "NatiiHial Dump Goldwater* committee, tried to raise an entirely different spectre, that of a Goldwater who would turn the Republican Party over lock, stock and barrel to toe Neggpes.

If this business of trying to

grind a fnmt-runnlng Republican candidate for presidential nominaticHi between toe two stones of Uly-whitism and (ooal-blacklsm werent serious, it would be alcost Inex-preesfiiWy funny. For, as anybody who has respect for lacto know Goldwater happens to be both an integrationist and a constitutionalist, which means that he is i&r extending rights to the Negro without Infringing these same rights as they apply to other people. This Is not a pro-white attitude, it Is simply pro-American.

The Goldwater record on integration, unlike that of some of his recent detractors, Is not

of the Johnny-come-lately type. It began in 1946, whi, as an organizer and officer of the

Arizona Air National Guard, Goldwater helped to Integrate the armed forces of his own home state. Incidentally, th Arizona National Guard was the first post-war Naticmal Guard to be integrated.

Barry Goldwaters activities as a National Guard offlcer

wer not lost on the Negro community in Phoenix, Arizona. The Negroes came to him after he had been elected to the

City Council with complaints that the restaurant at Sky Harbor. the municipal airport, was just as effectively Jim Chow as any public facility in the Deep South. The City (touncU, under Goldwater prodding, proceeded to desegregate the restaurant. This was quickly followed up with a campaign to desegregate the Phoenix theatres and to eliminate the local CJarver High School as a separate Negro educational institution. For his work as a leader In this campaign, and-for-Ms financial contributions to the Urban League, Goldwater was presented with a Cftr in the

National Assoclatl(m for toe Advancement of Colored People.

In Goldwaters own Arizona department stores, Negroes have worked alongside whites and Indians for 26 years. The Goldwater stores have also employed Mexicans.

With the Arlzima Indians, Goldwater built the first airstrip in the area. He used to take Indians on plane rides, giving many of them their first experience in flying, A familiar figure on the Navajo Reserva-ti(Hi, Goldwater is sometimes referred to by the Indians as "Mr. America and the older Indian actually call airplanes "Goldwaters. Since the Indian population; like that of the American bis(m, has lately been (Hi the increase, the time may come wflen Barry Oold-water will be singled out to become the leader of a dramatic push for "Indian rights. The Navajos and the Hopis of Arizona have been supporting Goldwaters party by a sev-en-to-one registration (m the local reservations. There are, incidently, some 83,000 Indians in Ariz(Hia as compared to 43,-000 Negroes.

The facts about Goldwaters integrationist record are not well-known simply because very few people have bothered to ask about them. In this connection Goldwater, who re^hed jokes about snakes, mlnt recall the lady who, upon an open request from the stage, left her seat near the aisle and Wit up to play tricks with a python. When she returned to her seat in the audience, her husband looked at her with amazentont and said;

"I dont know you were a snake charmer.

"You never asked me, said the lady.

Strength For Today

By EARL L. DOl'iU.ASS AND START WHISTLING

Do you find it hard to forgot an injury?

Every day we open the newspapers and read of tragediUs that have resulted from the fart that an Injury could not be forgotten. Sometimes It Is a battle qf words. Occasionally it breaks into a brawl. Fortunately for society. Its pent-up resentments only very rarely result in tragedy, but when they do the headlines are large and the horror and result of such quarreling will never be forgotten. -Why let some injuryor imagined injuryspoil your life Dont you realize that the person who has injured you gets more satisfaction over your worrying about the matter than over anything else that could

happen. Cast the injury, or the imagined injury, over your shoulder and go down the street whistling. Maybe the Injury can still be repaired Maybe if you got together wuh tin person who who you believe injured y(H. you might find that there was no Intention qn his part or hers to do anything of the sort.

There are an infinite number of ways to handle problems such as this, and let us get well in mind that unless we do handle these problems we can never be entirely happy or at peace with ourselves.

The worst thing about an In-jui-y is not the injury itself but tlie continued state of unhappiness and frustr%tion into w'hich it usually plunges u.s.

The aerosol industry will continue its rapid growth, but not all manufacturers are going to come out winners.

Production in 1962 amounted to appreximately l.i billion aerosol containers compared with 7% million the previous year. Further gains will be achieved this year and next.

Improved technology, better containers and inventiveness on choosing things to put In the pfffft cans will open new and broader markets. But some product lines and some companies will be depressurized by keener competition, the cost of marketing and the vagaries of American tastes and preferences.

There is already stiff competition among established aerosol-packaged products such as insecticides, household paints, hair sprays and air fresheners. The American public has accepted these products and everyone is after a share of the market.

The introduction ot new products. on the other hjind, is a

costly and precarious venture. Recent or planned aerosol products in the food field, slone, include garlic and onion sprays, meat tenderizer sprays, Juice sprays, milk flavorings, cheese spreads, salad dressings, tea and coffee concentrates. Developing and marketing these and dozens of other planned products is expensive. Yet the chances are that from half to all of them will fail.

The aerosol industry will continue to gain, but the advance will be irregular and hectic for Individual companies in the field.

Here are more look-aheacLs in business, based on analyses of developing trends and advance informati(Hi;

TAX-EXEMPT SCRUTINY: The Internal Revenue Service will take closer and more frequent looks at tax-exempt organizations, particularly trade associations and trade shows and exhibits. Rules on what can-stltutes a tax-exempt organiz-lition and what kinds of income are tax exempt and what kinds

are not, are frequently vague and poorly defined. The IRS wants to sharpen up its handling (tf such claims and see if, perhaps, some of the rules arent being pushed a little too far.

MORE SUGAR; Higher prices will stimulate Increased sugar output in the U. S. and throughout the world. Restrictions on beet and cane sugar plantings in this country nave been lifted through 1965, which is encouraging growers here. However, because it takes time to increase production, prices will remain relatively high for the next few years.
