Memphis World Memphis World Publishing Co. 1965-11-06 J. A. Beauchamp LIBERTY OF THE FUTURE — Seekers of information in libraries of the future may walk up to a library electronic computer, punch a keyboard to indicate the information needed, wait a few seconds and then receive out of the instrument's high speed automatic typewriter the information desired from the local library, or one a thousand miles away. Looking toward the future, the U.S. Department of Agriculture sent four of its professional librarians to the New York World's Fair to get concentrated training in the operation of an electronic library under direction of the American Library Association's Gordon Martin, seated at the console of a UNIVAC computer. Others, left to right are: Miss Winifred Woodward, librarian tit USDA's Eastern Utilization Research Laboratory, Wyndomoor, Pa.; Floyd Hardy, Mrs. Particia Condon and Miss Minnie N. Fuller, librarians of USDA's National Agricultural Library, Washington, D.C. The group appears amused at the capability of this sophisticated machine. Nov. Named NAACP Membership Month In a memorandum dispatched this week to all units of the Association, Executive Director Roy Wilkins pointed out the need for extra effort if the NAACP is to reach and exceed the half-million mark by the end of the year. Nationally, the membership is currently about 8 per cent ahead of this time last year, but is lagging behind the 1963 figure when membership attained a peak of 535,000. "We can still match the 1963 peak. us get out and work." Mr. Williams told the local NAACP volunteers. Although we have secured significant civil rights legislation and other helpful laws in 1964-65, the responsibilities and talks of the Association have not been discharged or significantly disminished. Discrimination continues in more subtel ways which often ire more difficult to combat. There is not only urgent need for prompt and full implementation of the new laws but also, in light of "the outrageous Hayneville verdicts," need for "new legislation to insure personal security for civil rights workers." The NAA CP, he said, is already at work drafting such legislation including a provision for a system of indem nification for victims of hale-inspired violence. The memorandum cited recent NAACP activity in Natchez, Miss., in Barnwell County, S. C., in Boston, in Cincinnati and in other cities, North and South. Also cited were successful voter registration drives, legal, victories in the fight against de facto school segregation, and the filing of more than 800 complaints with the Equal Job Employment opportunity Commission alleging job discrimination by industry, governmental agencies and trade unions. The Association has been kept busy oft "a far-flung battlefront," Mr. Wilkins said. In an effort to involve more young people, the NAACP has recently added three youth field directors, he pointed out. COMB AWAY GRAY WITH THIS COLORE COMB BRUSH Just comb and brush to add color tone.

On the basis of this story, recipients of such dolls were advised to contact their nearest military installation in order that the dolls might be checked by ordnance experts. Fort Benning, Georgia alone received more than 420 calls. Throughout Third US Army, approximately 1,200 dolls have been checked, or will be exammed shortly. However, inspections including xrays, of hundreds the dolls revealed not a single case of anything ass. Farther, investigation by pentagon officials failed to uncover any instances, either in the United States or in Viet Nam, of anyone's having been injured by an exploding doll. Military officials therefore feel that there is no further need to check all Vietnamese doll received in this country. They state, however, that anyone, having such a doll that has not yet been checked, and who feels uneasy on the subject, may bring the doll to the nearest military post for inspection. As previously announced, dolls found to be harmless will be returned undamaged. A spokesman stressed that no factual bulk for the original rumor has been uncovered, and that ex animation of dolls was conducted solely as a precautionary measure pending completion of investigations by agencies of the Department of Defense. Says Congress Indebted To Rights Movement The civil the rights movement in America was credited on Oct. 27 with being a powerful force behind the enactment by the 89th Congress of the "most important education legislation in history." Rep. John Brademas (D-Ind.) told the 58th annual meeting here of the Natural Catholic Education Association that Congress, also was deeply indebted to the late President Kennedy, president Lyndon B. Johnson, pope John XXIII, and "the ecumenical developments in both Catholic and non-Catholic churches throughout the world." INDEBTED TO CIVIL RIGHTS The civil the rights movement in America was credited on Oct. 27 with being a powerful force behind the enactment by the 89th Congress of the "most important education legislation in history."

Automation To Raise Level Of Medical Care The public Health Service today cited automation as a proved and available means to raise the level of medical care for increasing millions of Americans. Full application of automated procedures—validated by a 5-year program of PHS development—can relieve the practicing physician of much of tile routine drudgery which necessarily, precedes final diagnosis and treatment. This in turn can increase significantly the tithe available for personal attention to patient needs. The model for this important advance is an automated system for diagnosing heart disease and common types of lung disease. The model system is now ready for immediate and broader use in hospitals and, community screening programs. A furthergo al is to extend the system to physicians in private practice as quickly as possible. The prototype system includes telephone transmission and computer analysis of electrocardiograms and spirograms, both basic nostic tools in heart and lung diseases. The analysis can be made with great precision, high speed and at lower cost than by conventional methods. Computer analysis of EGG's has been demonstrated repeatedly in a number of studies and field trials by the Heart Disease Control Program of the Public Health Service. Telephone transmission of EGG's over short distances on a daily basis, for example, has been in successful operation for two years at the Northwest Central Clinic of the Washington, D. C., Health Department. Long-distance transmission of EGG's was successfully begun six months ago at the San Francisco Fd Station of the Heart Disease control Program and more recently at Hartford Hospital to Connecticut. These demonstrations indicate that a few large computer centers, located at appropriate locations in community hospital centers or in the regional medical complexes could provide a needed service to hospitals and physicians throughout the country. Principal limitations for extending such systems to serve more people in more communities are: 1. Financing and program backup for the necessary "hardware" (computer systems and telemetry equipment); and. 2. Acquainting thousands of busy physicians with the time-saving potential of such systems in hospital and private practice. Automated analysis of spirograms has been demonstrated in a cooperative project with George Washington University Hospital and in a study conducted with the U. S. Naval Aviation Medical Center, Pensacola, Florida. Analysis of the spirogram may require 15 minutes for a minimum number of computations. The enumeration of the same and even additional information from the spirogram takes the computer about 30 seconds. This information would be valuable in screening for bronchitis and emphysema or aiding the physician in his diagnosis. In the offing, but not ready for clinical use, is automated analysis of brain waves, heart sounds, serum protein abnormalities, cardiac output, exercise electrocardiograms, throat smears (for streptoccoccal infection), and ethers. GOP Names Young On New Job Panel William P. Young, Pennsylvania's Secretary of Labor and Industry, has been picked by the Republican Coordinating Committee's Task Force on Job Opportunities to serve on a subcommittee en Business and Labor Union Initiative. In announcing the appointment on Oct. 27, Charles H. Percy, chairman of the task force, said the subcommittee will be headed by George H. Bush, 1964 GOP Senatorial candidate from Texas.

Negro Family Life Also Has Strong Side, Weaver Avows "We are hearing a lot about the Negro family toda," George L-P Weaver, Assistant secretary of Labor for International Affairs, told the annual men's day assembly at St. Joseph's A.M.E. Church in Durham, "and we will near more in the days to come. I would suggest, However, that we should always remember that there are two sides of this story. There is the side that produces a Watts, and there is the side of strength — the side of strength that has enabled the Negro to survive ordeals more severe than those in any other group in our society. "Much of that strength," Mr. Weaver stated, "has been built upon hope and faith — an inheritance from our fathers and grandfathers. This is what enabled our fathers to survive, our children to build upon — the source of strength and idealism demonstrated by the sitins, many of whom came from rural cabins and, urban slums, as well as the children of middleclass parents." With due consideration, for recent attention given the importance of family life and the dire consequences to be expected from any breakdown in its fabric, Mr. Weaver, speaking of Negro family life, stated: "I speak now of the entire warp and woof of our family life which forms the very fabric of our existence. "The role of the family in shaping character and ability is so pervasive as to be easily overlooked in the present turbulence in many of our communities. The family is the basic social unit of American life; it is the basic socializing unit. By and large, adult conduct and discipline are learned as a child. "President Johnson, speaking last June at Howard University, made this point clearly: "The family,' he said, 'is the cornerstone of our society. More than any other force it shapes the attitudes, the hopes, the ambitions, and the values of the child. And when the family collapses it is the children that are usually damaged. When it happens on a massive scale, the community itself is crippled.' "I would point to Los Angeles and many other urban communities as clear examples of the truth of this assertion. "It is difficult for many to accept that out country is undergoing a revolution set in motion by the American Negro," Mr. Weaver said. "This fact has been difficult to grasp, for this revolution has substituted the instrumentality of toe law — he cours, peaceful picketing, demonstrating, and non-violent techniques — for the classical instruments of revolution. "When, we reflect for a moment, we can understand the dilemma of large segments of our communities, for we know that in many ways we have been a nation within a Ration. A community within our communities that very few whites really know. As the President describes it: Deprived of freedom, crippled by hatred, the doors of opportunity closed to hope. "Therefore, it is quite difficult for whites to understand the effect that three centuries of slavery exploitation and indignity have had on the fabric of Negro society itself. It is precisely here, where the historic injustices suffered by Negro Americana are mainly silent and hidden from view, that great injury has occurred. We know that it is here that the wound has festered for generations. It is here we must now begin to treat. "We know here is no single easy answer — we must use the poverty program, the new education pro grams, the medical care and ether health programs well as the entire arsenal of the Great Society's programs that art aimed at the roots of poverty, aimed to strengthen the total fabric of our society. "So, as we move beyond the goal of equal opportunity to equal achievement, as we shatter forever the barriers found in law and public practice; and dissolve the walls which bind the conditions of man by the color of his skin, we must at the same time, dissolve the enmities of the heart which, in the words of our president: diminish the holder, divide the great democracy, and do wronggreat wrong — to the children of God."

Sunday School Lesson In our lesson for today we study the background and beginning of a life dedicated to God's service even before its conception. Throughout the Bible one fact is stressed – children come from God. Many of the greatest Biblical characters, whose, being was greatly desired by one or other (or both) of their parents have been earnestly prayed for; this is reiterated again and again – and all became leaders of their people. True, they were also human, and made mistakes even sinned. But, on the other aide of the picture, they each contributed greatly to the life of the Hebrew nation, and to posterity and the state of Christianity. And all most always, this was because of the earnest desire of the parents involved to honor their commitments to the Lord in return for the birth of the beloved child. Our lesson today shows the heights to which motherhood can ascend and the importance of the role a mother plays in the shaping of her child's life. White it is true that Hannah partly desired a child as a status symbol (for the Israelites set great store by the continuance of their name) there is left no doubt in the reader's mind that she greatly loved her husband; he was kind to her; he was concerned for her well - being; and he loved her. Love begets love, and Hannah (with the inherent instincts of a woman) deeply desired to present him with a child. And when God answered her prayers, she nobly kept the promise she made to Him before the child was conceived that she would give Him the child, to be reared in His ser vice. What it m this loving mother her only child at the of three or four! That constantly in her thoughts and in her heart is evidenced by the fact that she tenderly prepared little garments to be taken to him once a year in the annual pilgrimage to the temple presided over by Eli the priest. What love and what longings must have gone into each little garment! What pride and joy must have lived in her heart and shone from her eyes as she saw the child grow handsome and strong and willing in the service of the Lord! Herein must have lain Hannah's strength. For we can bear anything that cruel fate con inflict on us if we can but lock at our children of the world through our earnest efforts to help them become worthwhile human beings, contributing something of value to the human race. Parenthood is not always easy; it more often than hot involves sacrifice and self - giving over and beyond what eel is really necessary – should be necessary. Discipline acts sometimes cause us pain the extent we avoid them from purely selfish motives, and thereby we become guilty of doing the child an injustice, For – while we cannot all give to our children the material advantages other children enjoy – we can provide them with a sense of security prompted by the knowledge that they are loved, and we can instill into them the ability to recognize the difference between right and wrong. We can teach them to have a loving heart, and an open mind. We can teach them that the basis of Christianity is love of out fellowmen, and gentleness, kindliness and the a ity so forgive are Christlike tributes. A ild is a gift form God: he is on loan to us for just so long as God desires that we have him. What he has become when we return him to the Lord is a measure of ourselves both in our own and in God's eyes.

Liepe Methods used LIEPE METHODS 3250 N. Green Bay Ave., Dept. 12. Dept. J-37 FREE BOOKLET New Minority Group Specialists Serve State Employment Offices Secretary of Labor W. Willard Wirtz has announced an expansion in the Labor Department's program of providing job assistance to members of minority groups. Fifty new full-time specialists in this field will be put to work in State employment service offices, some on a statewide basis, others in specificed metropolitan areas. They will be state employees, The money for these new positions is included in the fiscal 1966 grants to the states for operation of the employment service. "Despite the exceptional gains in employment male in recent years," Wirt said in making the announcement, "the unemployment rate for nonwhites continues at more then double that of white workers. Intensified efforts to devolod more job opportunities for members of minorlay groups are obviously necessary. This expanders, will work with private employers, with civil right groups, and with civic, business, and labor organizations in an effort to produce these jobs." Twenty-nine of the Minority Groups Representatives will be assigned to large metropolitan areas, in which the problem of nonwhite unemployment and underemployment have been particularly acute. An additional 21 representatives will work with groups and organizations throughout specific States. They will attempt to uncover existing job possibilities, make nonwhite workers more aware of these possibilities and channel a greater number of them into these jobs. The new positions represent a three-fold increase in the number of full-tim minority groups representatives in State public employment offices. At present, there are full-time specialists in only 17 States although 31 others have part time representatives.

Rookies and veterans alike came through with top performances and Worthington and Klippsten were as good as any relief twosome in the league. The result had to be a pennant, for Minnesota has tremendous power at the plate. As we noted earlier in the year Sam Male might have had a premonition this year would be his last as manager if the Twins didn't improve. Mele's job is now secure. Altogether, the year 1965 in the American League promises more exciting penant races in the future The Yankee era is over, at least until another becomes established, which that doesn't seem likely in the immediate future. The league has several strong teams as of now, as the National League usually has had in recent years. Chicago and Baltimore are contenders. Detroit and Cleveland are coming powers. New York should get into the race again in time though when is not certain. Los Angeles also seems to be coming and Washington is fast improving as is Kansas City. Boston can't go anywhere but up.
