The Boom To Continue
The economic experts are now saying that the current prosperity 
wave will continue through 1960.
Although many financial observers believe the boom in
the stock market is over, and that money will remain tight in
1960, they see record income and record spending—and satisfactory 
profit levels. The cost of living will inch slightly forward,
according to the majority of guesswork being done.
Most current estimates call for the gross national product
to top $500,000,000,000 this year, whereas in 1959 it totaled
about $480,000,000,000. Incomes are expected to total over
$400,000,000,000, which would also be a new high, since incomes 
last year were about $380,000,000,000.
And, profits of corporations are expected to be up—all of
which is encouraging to the Administration, and to the Republican 
Party, for it is an acknowledged fact that peace and prosperity 
are major political assets of the party in power during
a Presidential election year.
The growth of the economy is not only satisfying to those
who are enjoying its benefits, personally, but it is gratifying
from a larger viewpoint. With the communist economy in Russia 
expanding at an average of six or eight percent per year,
and in recent years the U.S. expanding at two to four percent,
it is obviously vital for us to redouble our efforts to promote
economic growth in the greatest free enterprise country in the
free world.
This growth has not been rapid enough in recent years,
and it is to be hoped that it can be accelerated in future years,
possibly through the removal of punitive and expansion-discouraging 
business taxes and a greater availability of low-interest 
money.

Brief Comments
When the bell rings for lunch, even the best worker will
stop his labor.
Freedom of the press is fine for a nation which has a press
that is free.
Nothing is sillier than a man, in a big job, who is afraid
of competition.
Making plans for the future is often a way to escape work
in the present.

Fayette County

Civic League, who presided.
John McFerren, 35, a Fayette
County farmer, told the Memphis
World this week that he was
threatened by a highway patrolman 
last Thursday near ThreeWay, 
which is about 2 1-2 miles
South of Somerville. McFerren said
he knows the patrolman only as
"Simmons."
McFerren said the patrolman approached 
him near the McFerren
Grocery Store, owned by his brother, 
and asked to see his driving
license, He then asked about the
ownership of the car he was driving 
and requested to know about
the title, which he answered.
He said the patrolman then
questioned him about telling about
a Cedar Hill Dairy truck striking
his mother (Mrs. Estella McFerren)
about a month ago. McFerren said
that the same officer investigated
the accident but nothing was done
about the accident.
McFerren said the officer told
him "the reason nothing was done
is because that is the way I saw it."
He added "you talk too much,"
quoted McFerren.
He said the highway patrolman
then questioned him about appearing 
before a Civil Rgihts Commission 
in Washington, D. C.
McFerren said the officers then
said "what you need is a good headWhipping, 
that would shut your
mouth up. What you need is for
me to catch you out one night and
give you a good head-beating," according 
to McFerren, who said he
reported it to the FBI bureau in
Memphis.
About 1,500 Negro Farmers in
Fayette County reported last week
that they have been effected by a
"cut-off of credit" by white merchants 
as reprisal for their attempt
to register to vote. Also "subtle
threats were also made about getting 
rid of us." Also some of the
women domestic workers have been
dismissed from their jobs.
Four women who were employed
as maids at the white Sumerville
high school were dismissed from
their jobs last week. They said
"when we asked Mr. Jack R. Morton 
the principal the reason we
were being dismissed, he said Id
rather not go into that."
Dismissed were: Mrs. Mae Emma
Dowdy, Mrs. Versie Perry, Mrs.
Georgia Douglas Mrs. Dora Lee
Mass and Mrs. Hattie Springfield.
The women said they were not
notified prior to their dismissal.
They said they worked 30 hours a
week for $16.
A number of farmers told how
they have been asked to "stay out
of hardware store" where they have
been "trading for years," Also related 
was the "gas squeeze," where
gas distributes discontinue servicing 
gas to the farm and removing 
the storage tanks so that
farmers Will be left without gas to
operate their tractors and other
farm equipment. A spokeman for
the group said "it is near planting
time, that is why they are doing it.
They think we will stop trying to
register and vote. But we're not
going to stop."
Among the spokesmen for the
estimated 1,500 whose "credit was
cut" were:
Sheppard Tooles, a 52-year-old
widower with six children, who has
lived in the county a life time.
He said "last week a service station 
manager told me that I could
not get credit anymore and he
would rather that I would not come
to his station to buy gas anymore,
even with cash. The Gulf gas distributor 
came to my farm and took
the storage tank. I have been dealing 
with his about 15 years. I own
about 200 acres and I rent from
another farmer. Some white to
went to my landlord and told him
to get rid of me, but he hasn't said
anything to me."
REV. THOMAS TUCKER, 27,
married with two children, said he
own 28 acres and he rented about
125. He said "the Lion Gas distributor 
came and got his tank last
week. I have been dealing with him
about three years. He said that I
was not buying enough gas." He is a
native of Fayette county.
JOHN McFERREN, 35, married
with two children, who has lived
there a life time said "I've been
trading at a hardware store in
Somerville for 20 years and I've always 
paid my bills. But last Wednesday 
the manager told me that
he didn't want me trading there
any more. He also related how the
manager questioned him "about
starting this mess around here
about registering and voting. I told
him that I had'nt started any mess.
All we want is to register and vote.
He them told me that he couldn't
give me anymore credit and that
he didn't want me coming in his
store anymore. He said we had been
living together all this time. And
he didn't see why we wanted to
change things by wanting
register and vote."
LEVERNE TOOLES, 27, married
with two children, went to a Auto
parts Store to buy a sealed-beam
headlamp for his automobile and a
clerk told him that he could not
sell him anything unless "you see
the manager."

wilds along Hobbs Creek, but quails
at the thought of venturing into a
big settlement like Denbury where at
least 400 people live in the year 1860.
His wife Ann realizes that is the reason 
he has asked her to accompany
him to court; he wants her along
when he has to face so many strangers. 

It's Ann's own first trip to a settlement 
in ages, and in spite of reason
for fears of what may happen to Ling
in court, and of disturbing talk of
civil war she is reveling in the experience. 
Then ....
THE ONLY spectator in the austero 
chamber was a thin,
sallow man who hung with
breathless interest on the trial in
progress. On the other side of
the aisle, William Bodine and his
clerk, Hendry Dexter, sat together. 

Ann saw them, looked away
and glanced at Ling, He had seen,
too, for the fires leaped in his
eyes, but he said nothing. Two
benches ahead of the sallow spectator, 
Ann found a seat and Ling
dropped beside her. She looked
toward the front of the court and
fixed her eyes on the man behind
the judge's bench.
She had somehow expected to
find a venerable figure, an old
man with a long white beard.
This judge was a young man, she
was surprised to see. Even sitting
down, he seemed big, and it was
not only his physical proportions
that made him seem so. His robe
of office concealed his upper body,
but his head dominated. It was
the head of a man who stood
alone. A wealth of fair hair surmounted 
his face—a face that
compensated with strength for a
lack of symmetry. Even at this
distance, the judge's keen blue
eyes seemed to probe Ann's innermost 
mind and read her thoughts.
She had a sudden, powerful notion 
that she had met this man
before, so many times that they
were old friends, and immediately
she knew that she had not.
After watching a case through,
Ling whooped, "I like that jedge!"
and Ann sensed that his tension
had given way to admiration.
Ling turned to the sallow spectator 
and bellowed, "What's the
jedge's name?"
The sallow man squirmed and
looked embarrassed. Ling repeated 
in a louder voice, "What's
the jedge's name?"
The bailiff had come up the
aisle so silently that he was beside 
Ling and had touched his
shoulder before Ling even suspected 
he was near. Ling turned
to face him.
"You must be quiet in the courtroom," 
the bailiff warned.
"I jest want to know the jedge's
name!"
"Be quiet or I'll have you
ejected from court."
"Good!" Ling chuckled. "The
jedge himself wants to see me
next What's his name?"
"Judge Colin Campbell. Now
be quiet."
"If you'd told me his name, I'd
of been quiet long ago," Ling said
amiably.
Judge Colin Campbell said caustically, 
"I trust the court will interrupt 
no one else if it proceeds
with the business at hand."
The clerk removed the brief
that had been on the judge's
bench, gave him a second brief,
and the judge bent to read. After
a few minutes he straightened,
nodded, and the bailiff called decorously, 

"That's me!" Ling said happily.
He rose, and Ann gasped with
disbelief at the transformation he
had undergone. Ling had expected 
the judge to be a weakling, 
or, at best, another slick
townsman. Instead, he had met
a man who commanded his respect, 
He slouched easily down
the aisle, halted before the bench,
and said amiably, "Howdy, Jedge."
"Howdy," Colin Campbell returned 
pleasantly. "You're
Mr.—?"
"Ling Stewart."
"I see, and is Mr. Bodine here?
William Bodine and Hendry
Dexter had followed Ling up to
the bench and now they sidled unobtrusively 
in beside him. The
merchant said, "I'm Mr. Bodine,
your Honor."
"Who is this third man?"
"Hendry Dexter, my clerk and
witness, your Honor. He saw
everything."
"Very well. What charges do
you prefer, Mr. Bodine?"
"On November 1, 1860, in the
main room of my store at Wetherly, 
Buckshot county, with no
provocation and for no reason,
Lingo Stewart feloniously assaulted 
my person."
"It's a dirty lie!" Ling gritted.
Ann gasped, but the judge was
unabashed. "You deny the
charges, Mr. Stewart?"
"Not all of 'em. I basted him
once and I'd o' done it five six
more times 'cept he run in another 
room an' locked the door.
But I didn't do it 'thout reason!"
"Go on. What was your reason?" 

"I toted a bail of twenty-six
deer skins and eleven fox pelts to
sell at his store. He took the bale
in back, swiped five deer skins
and three fox pelts, then said they
was never there."
"Is that true, Mr. Bodine?"
Judge Campbell asked.
Bodine smiled tolerantly. "These
mountain dwellers can neither
read nor write, your Honor.
Therefore they're incapable of
keeping a tally except in their

own minds. Almost always they
think they bring me more furs
than they do. I needn't remind
your Honor that memory is a
weak crutch."
"Did you have a tally?" the
judge asked ling.
"Bet your neck!" Ling snorted.
"I kind of figgered this skunk
cheated me before an' this time
I wanted to make sure."
He took from his pocket an
aspen stick and held it up. The
judge leaned forward and appeared 
to be interested. Ling explained 
his private accounting
system.
"See them eleven little notches,
Jedge, an' them twenty six big
uns? The little ones mean eleven
fox pelts and the big 'uns twentysix 
deer skins."
Judge Campbell took the stick,
methodically counted the notches
in each category, and returned the
stick to Ling. He addressed Bodine. 

"Do you object to testifying
under oath, Mr. Bodine?"
"Why—no."
"Then I shall ask you to do so.
If, after the oath has been administered, 
you remain willing to
testify that the bale of furs was
short to the numbers you stated,
I shall find in your favor. But
perhaps I should advise you that,
if you testify falsely while under
oath, you incur a mandatory prison 
sentence for the crime of perjury." 

"I don't see—"
"Why should you hesitate, Mr.
Bodine?" Campbell frowned. "Mr.
Bodine, if you refuse to take the
oath' and testify, I can conclude
only that the bale of furs and
skins conformed to Mr. Stewart's
count rather than yours."
"He cheated me plenty of other
times!" Bodine snarled.
Ling's voice was an angry
bear's growl. "It's another dirty
lie!"
The judge rapped for order,
waited, and addressed William
Bodine. "I admire neither your
methods nor your morals, Mr. Bodine, 
but since this is your initial
appearance before this court, I
am inclined to be lenient I fine
you twenty-five dollars for your
sheer effrontery in attempting to
prosecute a fraudulent case and
for thinking you would succeed.
Pay the clerk."
Bodine produced his purse, paid,
and turned to go. Colin halted
him.
"You are also to pay Mr. Stewart 
ten dollars as partial compensation 
for the inconvenience you
have visited upon him."
Ling tucked Bodine's ten dollars 
into a pocket and turned his
shining face to the judge. "By
gosh, Jedge, never did figger to
meet a 'town man' I could take a
shine to!"

How The New Pension
Law Affects Veterans
The wide-spread interest among
veterans and their dependents on
new pension law going into effect 
later this year, the Memphis
World today prints the fourth of
five columns of pertinent information 
on the new law. The last column 
will appear in the next issue.
Cut out and save each column
for a complete fact sheet. The following 
questions, with appropriate
answers, were chosen by the Veterans 
Administration and Austress
Russell Post No. 27 American Legion 
for the thousands being asked: 

Q. There is talk of increased
eligibility for widows and children
under the new pension law. How
many will be affected?
A. The VA estimates that approximately 
200,000 widows and
children, survivors of veteran who
died after serving in World War II
and the Koean Conflict will become 
eligible for pensions after
July 1, 1960, when the new system
goes into effect.
Q. Don't they receive pensions
under the present law?
A. Only if they can show that
the veteran had a service-connected
disability when he died.
Q. But the widows and children
of deceased World War I veteran
do not have to prove any serviceconnected 
disability to obtain a
pension, do they?
A. No, they do not. And after
next July 1, survivors of World
War II and Korean Conflict veterans 
like survivors of World War
I veterans, will have to show only
that the veteran had 90 days of
wartime service (or a disability discharge), 
was not dishonorably discharged, 
and that their annual income 
is within the limits prescribeed 
by law to indicate the need for
a pension.
Q. How much pension does a
widow receive now?
A. A childless widow may
present receive a pension if her annual 
income is not more than $1400.
A widow with children may be eligible 
for a pension if her annual income 
does not exceed $2700.
Q. How will the new law change
all this for a childless widow?
A. Under the new system a
childless widow will receive $60 a
month if her income is more than
$600 a year; $45 a month
if her annual income is more than
$600 but not more than $1200; and
$25 a month if her annual income
exceeds $1200 but is not more than
$1800. If her income is more than
$1800 a year she is not eligible
receive a pension.
Q. How will the new law affect
a widow with children?
A. Under the new system a

widow with one child will receive
$75 a month if her annual income
is not more than $1000; $60 a
month if her annual income is
more than $1000 but not more than
$2000; and $40 a month if her annual 
income, is more than $2000
but not more than $3000, If she
has more than one minor child,
she will receive an extra $15 a
month for each additional child.
A widow with a child or children
is not eligible to receive a pension
if her annual income is more than
$3000.

"It is obvious that the trespass
charge is used because of the fact
that the students are Negroes,"
the telegram said. 'A law which
would deny Negroes use of public
accommodations because of race
or color is obviusly unconstitutional."

Hi Everyone,
We've been on a vacation for
a while, we really missed you
though. And here we are back on
the scene to turn you on to some
of the happenings around a little
thing called Hamilton High.
Well, we had a heartbreaker
Wednesday, the Washington Warriors 
defeated the Hamilton Wildcats 
by a score of 72-64. Our boys
played hard all the way, Oliver Ingram 
and Joseph Watkins, you
did your part and more, and to
the entire Basketball squad, we are
with you always, whether you lose
or win.
Chosen for the spotlight this
week is Mrs. Ruth Beauchamp, a
Civics instructor and one of our
Guidance Counselors.
Mrs. Beauchamp is well known
through the city. You can take it
from this, if there were an adult
City Wide Survey, Mrs. Beauchamp 
would lead the list. Upon
leaving Magnolia she came to Hamilton 
with her helping and progressive 
hand.
The sophomore Class of 1958, one
of the strongest and most popular
sphmre class there have ever been
was led by Mrs. Beauchamp as advisor. 
She's also the advisor of the
National Honor Society at Hamilton, 
and also the the Social Science
Club. Mrs. Beauchamp was the one
who started the Nashville trip for
students of her Civic Classes to
learn more about their state and
etc. There are many things that
Mrs. Beauchamp can be given
credit for.
Mrs. Beauchamp is the wife of
Mr. Ted Beauchamp, a faculty
member at Booker Washington, And
to you Mrs. Beauchamp, we sincerely 
think that you are everything 
that the student body at
Hamilton need for progress, still
better may we say "Your Are A
Key Note To Success."
Being reporters, we decided to
spend a night on a Tropical Island, 
we put on our black shirts,
pants, tams and shades and started 
on our way (walking) after we
had walked about four miles up
behind us drove a car, we went
back to see who it was, when we
walked to the car, guess who was
there, Samuel Love and Claudette
Green, they were in a "61" Thunderbird, 
boy! is he progressing. . .We
didn't care to ride, we walked to
dig the happenings, time was passing 
so slow we thought we'd stop
in at this little house by the road
side and get us a drink of water,
after ringing the door bell a certain 
young lady came to the door,
we asked her who lived here, she
said Rose Cooper and Pete Freeman, 
well we bidded the happy
ones good-bye and started out
again. In the next little town we
came to we decided to take in a
movie, we got a fellow to show us
the way to the theater, he took us
straight to the Shirleane Theater,
there "The Masquerade Is Over"
was playing, starring Alvin Junior
and Lawrence Fant, we didn't care
to see the picture so we started
walking back toward the highway,
we were only two miles from the
Tropical Island, we finally came
to a large red building with shinny
brown floors, in one corner was
some men making noise on different
kind of tools, things were really
jazzy, it was so dark we could
hardly see, I guess it was because
of our, dark glasses, we didn't get
the chance too dig everybody, but
we did happen to see...

dig the happenings, time was passing 
so slow we thought we'd stop
in at this little house by the road
side and get us a drink of water,
after ringing the door bell a certain 
young lady came to the door,
we asked her who lived here, she
said Rose Cooper and Pete Freeman, 
well we bidded the happy
ones good-bye and started out
again. In the next little town we
came to we decided to take in a
movie, we got a fellow to show us
the way to the theater, he took us
straight to the Shirleane Theater,
there "The Masquerade Is Over"
was playing, starring Alvin Junior
and Lawrence Fant, we didn't care
to see the picture so we started
walking back toward the highway,
we were only two miles from the
Tropical Island, we finally came
to a large red building with shinny
brown floors, in one corner was
some men making noise on different
kind of tools, things were really
jazzy, it was so dark we could
hardly see, I guess it was because
of our, dark glasses, we didn't get
the chance too dig everybody, but
we did happen to see...

DEDICATION FROM
Hi Everyone,
We've been on a vacation for
a while, we really missed you
though. And here we are back on
the scene to turn you on to some
of the happenings around a little
thing called Hamilton High.
Well, we had a heartbreaker
Wednesday, the Washington Warriors 
defeated the Hamilton Wildcats 
by a score of 72-64. Our boys
played hard all the way, Oliver Ingram 
and Joseph Watkins, you
did your part and more, and to
the entire Basketball squad, we are
with you always, whether you lose
or win.
Chosen for the spotlight this
week is Mrs. Ruth Beauchamp, a
Civics instructor and one of our
Guidance Counselors.
Mrs. Beauchamp is well known
through the city. You can take it
from this, if there were an adult
City Wide Survey, Mrs. Beauchamp 
would lead the list. Upon
leaving Magnolia she came to Hamilton 
with her helping and progressive 
hand.
The sophomore Class of 1958, one
of the strongest and most popular
sphmre class there have ever been
was led by Mrs. Beauchamp as advisor. 
She's also the advisor of the
National Honor Society at Hamilton, 
and also the the Social Science
Club. Mrs. Beauchamp was the one
who started the Nashville trip for
students of her Civic Classes to
learn more about their state and
etc. There are many things that
Mrs. Beauchamp can be given
credit for.
Mrs. Beauchamp is the wife of
Mr. Ted Beauchamp, a faculty
member at Booker Washington, And
to you Mrs. Beauchamp, we sincerely 
think that you are everything 
that the student body at
Hamilton need for progress, still
better may we say "Your Are A
Key Note To Success."
Being reporters, we decided to
spend a night on a Tropical Island, 
we put on our black shirts,
pants, tams and shades and started 
on our way (walking) after we
had walked about four miles up
behind us drove a car, we went
back to see who it was, when we
walked to the car, guess who was
there, Samuel Love and Claudette
Green, they were in a "61" Thunderbird, 
boy! is he progressing. . .We
didn't care to ride, we walked to
dig the happenings, time was passing

JUNIORS SPONSOR DANCE
EACH AND EVERY FRIDAY
Hi Everyone,
We've been on a vacation for
a while, we really missed you
though. And here we are back on
the scene to turn you on to some
of the happenings around a little
thing called Hamilton High.
Well, we had a heartbreaker
Wednesday, the Washington Warriors 
defeated the Hamilton Wildcats 
by a score of 72-64. Our boys
played hard all the way, Oliver Ingram 
and Joseph Watkins, you
did your part and more, and to
the entire Basketball squad, we are
with you always, whether you lose
or win.
Chosen for the spotlight this
week is Mrs. Ruth Beauchamp, a
Civics instructor and one of our
Guidance Counselors.
Mrs. Beauchamp is well known
through the city. You can take it
from this, if there were an adult
City Wide Survey, Mrs. Beauchamp 
would lead the list. Upon
leaving Magnolia she came to Hamilton 
with her helping and progressive 
hand.
The sophomore Class of 1958, one
of the strongest and most popular
sphmre class there have ever been
was led by Mrs. Beauchamp as advisor. 
She's also the advisor of the
National Honor Society at Hamilton, 
and also the the Social Science
Club. Mrs. Beauchamp was the one
who started the Nashville trip for
students of her Civic Classes to
learn more about their state and
etc. There are many things that
Mrs. Beauchamp can be given
credit for.
Mrs. Beauchamp is the wife of
Mr. Ted Beauchamp, a faculty
member at Booker Washington, And
to you Mrs. Beauchamp, we sincerely 
think that you are everything 
that the student body at
Hamilton need for progress, still
better may we say "Your Are A
Key Note To Success."
Being reporters, we decided to
spend a night on a Tropical Island, 
we put on our black shirts,
pants, tams and shades and started 
on our way (walking) after we
had walked about four miles up
behind us drove a car, we went
back to see who it was, when we
walked to the car, guess who was
there, Samuel Love and Claudette
Green, they were in a "61" Thunderbird, 
boy! is he progressing. . .We
didn't care to ride, we walked to
dig the happenings, time was passing 
so slow we thought we'd stop
in at this little house by the road
side and get us a drink of water,
after ringing the door bell a certain 
young lady came to the door,
we asked her who lived here, she
said Rose Cooper and Pete Freeman, 
well we bidded the happy
ones good-bye and started out
again. In the next little town we
came to we decided to take in a
movie, we got a fellow to show us
the way to the theater, he took us
straight to the Shirleane Theater,
there "The Masquerade Is Over"
was playing, starring Alvin Junior
and Lawrence Fant, we didn't care
to see the picture so we started
walking back toward the highway,
we were only two miles from the
Tropical Island, we finally came
to a large red building with shinny
brown floors, in one corner was
some men making noise on different
kind of tools, things were really
jazzy, it was so dark we could
hardly see, I guess it was because
of our, dark glasses, we didn't get
the chance too dig everybody, but
we did happen to see...
