Meet Nelson Rockefeller Through this haze of Republican political evolution, there is gradually emerging a sentiment-and a personality which in the dim distance has every appearance of the old days when big Teddy Roosevelt leaped from the Spanish American War and a strong dynasty of fortune, to add another word to that family heritage—FAME. Teddy came upon the scene to make history, and he lit a lamp in old Republican circles that will never go out. Now, come the days of Nelson Rockefeller. The party does not languor, neither is it gasping for the breach to give somebody an endorsement term, it is full grown and healthy, with a tall figure leading the host—on before. And there is back of him a sterling character, a strong contender and a commanding factor, in Richard M. Nixon. Still, there is coming upon the scene another new and firm face. It is a scion of the famous Rockefeller and he is strategically making his debut in a contest for the governorship of New York, as his first rung on the political ladder. There can come, many a slip between the cup and the lip; the Republican Party has never been shot to pieces for the want of fine timber. In addition to others, there is a form discernable in the dim distance, and it is the silhouette of Nelson Rockefeller who is no shadow-boxer and one with a record and a personality which any political party can be proud. The Rockefellers have a landmark in this country and this state. Nelson's great grandmother and her sister, the Spelmans have an immortal shrine here in Atlanta in a cultural center and a place of learning. Nelson will be welcomed here and he will prove a powerful asset to the good fortunes of the Republican Party and the whole country at large, whether he goes further, or simply desires to serve his native New York. Anyway, meet Nelson Rockefeller. Our Sincere Thanks To The State Chamber Of Commerce (From The Atlanta Daily World) Sometimes in life, there come those spiritual stimulants as refreshing showers over a grainfield, to "cheer the weary traveler." The journey is brightened and the soul that presses forward is enlivened, and there is a new grip on life and those pursuits, whose nobility of purpose and ultimate aim is a service to mankind and country. The Atlanta Daily World, therefore, has been uplifted and encouraged by being selected by such high authority on business and human relations as the Georgia State Chamber of Commerce, to receive that organization's "ACCOLADE OF APPRECIATION", so appropriately presented by the Atlanta Business and Professional Association at Wednesday's weekly meeting of the Hungry Club at the Butler Street Y. M. C. A. This broad distinction, citing a service "for economic contributions, high standards of citizenship, and participation in Georgia's progress since 1928," is accepted with humility and a renewed inspiration to render a better and broader service to the community. Of course, there were, along this path of achievement, the trying winds, the testing storms and the billows of discouragement. But, on the whole, we have received generous and sincere support from our subscribers and advertisers who have made our existence possible. In these days when journalism itself is not excluded from those functions under the strictest scrutiny, it must be a decided compliment when a non-partisan organization of the dignity and recognized high standing as the State Chamber of Commerce would arrive at such a conclusion as would stand this periodical out as a hallmark in the annals of citizenship and economics in Georgia's progress for over a quarter of a century. Again, we state that we are grateful to the slate's Chamber of Commerce and all others who have shared in extending us this unique recognition. And our pledge is to continue standing for the high and just principles which will further goodwill and progress in our slate. Use It Or Lose It REV. LOUISE LYNOM Simon answering said unto him. Master we have toiled all night, and have taken on nothing: never the less at thy word I will let down the net. (Luke 5.5) The Master is caling us today, in so many ways to consecrate our lives to thee. Dwight L. Moody heard the Lord's voice speaking to him through the lips of Henry Vareley. Vareley said to him, "The world has yet to see what God will do with a man fully consecrated to him." Thoughfully and prayerfully, Mr., Moody resolved by God's good grace to strive to the utmost, with all that, was in him to be that man. Like Simon Peter he was given courage to say, "Neverless at thy word I will. And like Peter he soon became a proficient fisher of men. The Master is still calling for completely consecreated persons. He needs them for ministry, the mission of Chrisian youth. Jesus said, "The sheep hear his Voice: and he..... leadeth them put. "When He calls us to consecrate our lives completely to Him, will we glady answer, "At thy word I will. PRAYER: O God, help us to keep our hearts in tune with Thee, that we, Indeed, may hear Thy voice and obey Thy commands Grant us this day the joy at complete surrender to Thy will. In the Redeemer's name and for His sake we ask it, Amen. THE MASTER IS CALLING FOR CONSECRATED MEN: REV. LOUISE LYNOM Simon answering said unto him.

Race Registration registration, the number of qualified white voters also dropped. The lower registration of both races in South Carolina was attributable mainly to the total re-registration this year, as is required every 10 years in the state. Registration increased among both white and Negro citizens in North Carolina and Virginia. In Louisiana, the White registration increased while Negro registration fell from 161,410 to 130,000 in measure to widespread purges in the past two years, due in, large measure o widespread purges in several parishes. Pro-segregation groups in that state have made a concerted effort to strike Negro voters from the rolls. "In certain areas," the SRC said, "it undoubtly has become more difficult for Negroes to register, be cause of new voting restrictions and stricter applications of the old requirements. In some sections where political leaders have farmed racial, prejudices. Negroes are even more hesitant about attempting to register than they were two years ago. But, in many parts of the South, lack of political consciousness remains the greatest Darner. "Leaders of both races long have contended that it all bars to Negro voting were removed tomorrow, there still would not be a great rush to the polls. This is not expected until Negroes have been able to rise their economic and educational levels, their leadership has been broadened and they have reached a position where their political participation promises more tangible results. Neither the new civil rights legislation nor the federal agencies created by it promise any quick or dramatic improvement in Negro suffrage Even where registration boards are cooperative, a gradual process of political education obviously will be required." But the Council emphasized "all this should not obscure the fact that the trend is upward and that the longrange prospect in the South is for a Negro registration comparable to the white."

Ike and Vice President Nixon are very popular in Ghana. The Vice President, especially is liked here. Even the man in the street still talks about the "friendly Nixon who came to our independence." The real ract is, the country's economy is linked to cocoa and it must seek other sources of income. The Volta River Project, if developed, would make available to vast quantity hydro-electric power necessary to exploit the millions of tons of "bauxite" in the mills of Ghana. This new source of power could be made available to new factories in the Kpong area west of Kumasi. From "bauxite" the country would be able to produce aluminum to be shipped "to all parts of the world; It would take several years to build the Volta Dam at a cost of almost a billion dollars.

Ghana's achievement, during the past two years is proof that "we can govern ourselves and control our own affairs," the Prime Minister said here recently. The policy of the government is "positive neutralism." But from all Indications, this does not mean that Ghana is not anxious to make friends with countries of the West, especially America. There is deep sentiment for America in Ghana. Almost everyone you meet asks about the United States, and more than this. "How can I, get there?"

MEMPHIS WORLD Want Ad Information LOST BUILDING FOR RENT FOR RENT FURNITURE FOR SALE REPAIR SERVICE REMODEL—REPAIR—PAINT ADD-A-ROOM SALESWOMEN WANTED BUSINESS WOMEN — SELL NEWSBOYS WANTED FEMALE HELP WANTED Citizens Of Memphis Thank you for a successful first year... You may scarcely realize how much you have contributed to a rather remarkable change which has been taking place over the past few months. This change is a gratifying demonstration of good citizenship, giving evidence that Memphis is composed of a mature, thinking public, not afraid to shoulder its own responsibilities and willing to help others unable to carry their entire share of the load. We're speaking of the year-old policy encouraging those who can pay for a portion of their care at to pre-pay their bill through hospitalization insurance. The result? The exists for the purpose of providing medical care for those people of Memphis and Shelby County who can't afford private physicians and hospitals. This is a traditional and certainly desirable function of the municipal government and about $3 ½ million of your tax money goes for this purpose each year. Many patients (about one-third of the total) admitted to pay nothing for their service because of their very limited income. The other two-thirds, the partpay group, are classified according to their income and are now expected to have the amount of hospitalization insurance which their financial situation will allow them to carry. Almost a million dollars will flow into the city treasury this year as revenue, to a great degree the result of the response by Memphis citizens to pay their hospital bill through insurance. Last year total hospital revenue was $725,000. Seven years ago it was less than $300,000. How is this possible? Only because: Those Memphians who use the hospital have assumed a greater share of the load and are more responsible citizens than ever before. Those who do not need the help of the municipal hospital have recognized this policy of charging patients according to their financial ability as an equitable division of responsibility between the patient and the taxpayer and have encouraged those part-pay patients who are eligible to use the to buy insurance protection. To be sure, all of our patients do not yet regard health care with the importance it deserves, but the growing awareness that health is our most precious possession is indeed encouraging. The fact that good health is essential to happy living and health care should be given first priority after food, clothing and shelter, is being recognized by more and more users of . We wish to emphasize that the JOHN GASTON HOSPITAL is NOT in the insurance business, nor does it sponsor any particular company. The patient is free to select the source of insurance coverage he desires. We feel strongly that the service of providing hospitalization insurance is a function of private enterprise, not municipal government.

L. STANLEY DILLARD, Commissioner Finances and Institutions City of Memphis ROBERT G. HARDY, Administrator City of Memphis Hospitals Growth is a continuing process. The personality with which the child is born and which he has acquired in his short but important past, is constantly modified by his present experiences. Thus the present is the child's great opportunity to learn. It Is also the parents' and the teachers opportunity to guide the child's development. How do preschool children "get that way?" How is the learning process as we see it?. A child grows somewhat as a plant does. The impulse to grow in a certain way is in the seed. The rest- depends upon the soil and others conditions. In the same way the child develops as obstacles to his best growth are removed and favorable conditions are supplied. The child's conduct is an attempt to make the whole situation as "good" as comfortable to him, as satisfying, as complete as possible, Using his unlearned responses, the newborn baby tries torelieve his vague feelings of discomfort. When milk has been supplied to relieve his hunger, he continues to use that ability. When crying results in a satisfying warmth in his mother's arms, he cries again, hoping in his vague way for the same results... Among the conditions favorable for learning are the child's physical and mental readiness for the activity; his interest in the activity; the results of the activity, whether pleasant and satisfying or unpleasant, and annoying: the methods employed by the teacher; and the personality of the teacher whether she is liked or disliked, loved or feared, appealing to the child or repellent ... The child uses the best ways he has discovered of meeting his needs. Read "A Study of Young Children" by Ruth strong, and discover why your child nets as he does.

To Present Opera "Die Flederaus" ITTA BENA, MISS. - - The National Grass Boots Opera Company will present Johann Strauss' sparkling operetta "Die Flederaus" in the Mississippi Vocational College Auditorium on Wednesday, November 12, at 8 p. m.

Clyde Roller in three performances in the Texas Panhandle, to a combined audience totaling over six thousand. Last season the company presented the opera 74 times in its home state of North Carolina and throughout the South and Midwest. The amusing story is laid in old Vienna of 1873, and is set to the most familiar music of Johann Strauss, such as. "The Laughing Song" and the waltzes of the second act. This gay story of revenge centers around a rich Viennese banker and the manner in which his friend seeks revenge for being left sound asleep on a bench in the park following a masquerade party at which he was dressed as a bat. The action moves from the banker's home, to an elegent party given by a fabulously wealthy Russian prince, to the humorous finale in the city jail. The beautiful costumes, handsome singers, and the incomparable music of Johann Strauss, performed toy the expert troupe guarantee an, enjoyable evening of excellent entertainment.
