Unleashing The Negro's Voting Power Current headlines have it that the Eisenhower Administration made known this week a plan whereby Southern Negroes Would have the guarantee of voting in federal, state and county elections The plan would involve the appointment of voting referees who would be empowered to certify whether voting applicants are qualified under state and federal law, and to see that their votes are cast and counted. This would be done after a United States Court has deter mined that Negroes are denied the right to vote by state action or under the color of state law" by a systematic pattern of practice in any locality. The referees would be acting as officers or agents of the court as do referees in bankruptcy cases. Any failure of state election officials to register the certified applicants and permit them to vote would be subject to contempt court. This is exactly what many, citizens all over the country have striven to get written into the Civil Rights measure. They-have seen through the records of the past how subterfuge after subterfuge in some areas have prevented Negroes from registering. The Tuskegee, Macon County case is a point at hand demanding some type of federal guarantee and protection of Negro voters. The Macon County affair in which the registrars resigned in the face of an investigation into why Negroes were dot able to register, called down fire on the practice as nothing before it. Upon the resignation of the registrars, nobody was left to sue. While there are numerous others, this case would serve the purpose of showing the extent that certain sentiment would go to keep Negroes off the voting lists. Another pattern would be the case of Randolph County vs. Shorter et al, coming up from Cuthbert, Georgia. Here school teachers, duly certified by the state itself as qualified to teach in the schools, college graduates and practicing physicians duly licensed under the laws of the state, were challenged and erased from the register. This case of course drew so much fire that it went to book find a federal Judge sitting in Columbus, Georgia, not only awarded the Negro applicants punitive damages, but ordered their names back on the voting lists. There are possibly numerous cases all over the South where Negroes have been systematically kept off the Voting lists. All power to the administrations tireless effort to emancipate Negro voters all over the country. A few days ago, United States Senator Jacob Javits, a Republican of New York, saw the possibility of doubling Negro registration on such a score. This Eisenhower vote plan seems sound and will be effective if enacted into law. It will mean millions of more persons Will be voting in the South and this in turn should make for more efficient and just government for all. Polio Research Yields Double Health Dividends The medical discoveries uncovered by basic research inthe fight against polio have significance for the health of mankind which may someday overshadow the Salk vaccine. March of Dimes supported research has acted Tike a double edged sword advancing all medical science by decades and opening the way for treatment and prevention of other diseases beyond polio. Since polio is a virus disease, The National Foundation started its studies with the polio virus and other viruses which might shed light on polio. These virus studies led to the discovery of a whole new group of viruses. What these orphan or ECHO viruses cause no one knows but they may unlock secrets to cure some of mankind's ailments. Since Viruses spend their active existence inside of living cells, The National Foundation supported cell study. Some of the cell cultures produce altered cells which are looked upon by some investigators as cancer cells. These findings have been useful for the cancer research scientist. Dr. Theodore Puck of the University of Colorado Medical School, a March of Dimes grantee, has developed a method of growing mammalian cells in a stable state in the laboratory. This permits the study of characteristics and genetics of cells grown from most tissues of the human body. Cultures of this kind have helped to establish that there are 46 chromosomes rather than 48 as was thought to be the case several years ago. Basic principles discovered in producing the Salk vaccine have made possible a vaccine against measles and may speed the development of vaccines against other virus diseases. These are but a few examples of how March of Dimes research is paying extra dividends beyond polio. AFRICANS RIOT BEFORE BRITIAN'S MCMILLAN The crowd assembled about an hour before Macmillan was due. Police set up a cordon around the hotel entrance and when one native tried to break through, he was arrested and the rioting started. Within seconds, the mob began throwing tree branches and stones at police. It was the worst outbreak here since a state of emergency was declared for Nyasaland last March following serious nationalist demonstrations. At least 40 persons were arrested and taken away in trucks after police reinforcements arrived. Police and Africans kicked, and ripped at each other although one white policeman was reprimanded by his superior officer when he struck a woman with his cane. At a news conference Tuesday, Macmillan said he regretted that certain African organizations did not wish to state their political opinions on the federation of the Rhodesias and Nyasaland to the Monckton commission which has been assigned to the problem. He said, "either there must be conflict and tragedy here or real partnership and understanding." He explained that franchise qualifications in each territory of the central African federation wou'd depend upon the political progress each had made. In London, the white settlers United Party Delegation ended its half-day token boycott of the Kenya Constitutional Conference and discussion was resumed with full attendance. The white group is protesting the admission of the Africans ad viser, Peter Mbiu Koinage, whom they regard as having been implicated in the Mau Mau terrorism of 1952. Macmillan arrived in Blantyre Monday on his African tour and was met by demonstrators shouting for the release of imprisoned Nationalist leader Dr. Hastings Banda. Banda was removed from the colony when the state of emergency was proclaimed. However, Orton Chirwa, president of the Malawi Congress Party, Insisted that the demonstrations were not aimed at Macmillan but at the federal government. He said that if there were signs of hostility it was only in the "heat of the moment" and the police were determined to keep the crowd under strict control.

TOUGH SADDLE By MATT STUART © By Matt Stuart. 1959; from the Dodd Mead & Co. Novel: distributed by King Features Syndicate. A REALIZATION came to Sage Wingo which dulled the fine edge of his buoyant mood. For if he were to head directly out of this part of the country tonight, he'd certainly leave behind a big debt of unpaid vengeanca The one he owed Link Asbell It was a debt of long amassing, starting the first time he and Asbell met, when they looked each other up and down, formed their opinions, made their judgments. In Aabell's eyes he had seen the forming of a strong and scathing distaste. And from that moment the smoldering coals of dislike and animosity had burned in Sage Wingo. Nothing that bad happened since had in any way lessened that fire of enmity. Just the opposite was true. That first dislike had long since become a solid, enduring hatred, a hatred particularly virulent since the night in Ben Dillon's Imperial bar not so long ago, when Asbell had beat him savagely, man to man. Added to this were the happenings back at Double Diamond headquarters, earlier this day. caught between, Asbell and Tom Grant, he had had to surrender His rifle, and then been forced to watch Asbell lever the weapon empty into the watering trough, and, as a final insulting gesture, drop the gun into the trough after the cartridges. So at this moment, Sage Wingo knew, the conviction that no matter where he rode, or how far he'd never be free of a nagging discontent unless he settled his, debt of hate with Link Asbell. However. It was something that shaped up as far from easy, and he had to think on it carefully figuring how and when. He always thought better on such things with a shot or two of whiskey under his belt. So, where he'd been riding directly west, he now reined north and west, where the lights" of Garrison town were distant yellow pinpoints in the night. Coming Into town from Running M. Link Asbell rode down Center Street to the Prairie House, where he dismounted and tied. He climbed to the porch and walked in. When he knocked on the door of Room Seven, the first response was a considerable period ofsilence. Finally, after a second knock, Charley Tunnison answered, a definite note of wariness in his voice. "Who is It?" Asbell told him and was summoned in in a tone which if not exactly cordial, was at least somewhat relieved. Tunnison was propped up in bed, the lamp on the bedside ta ble throwing a muted yellow radiance; The lawyer spoke past his face — muffling bandages, faint sarcasm threading his words. "This surprises me, Asbell I didn't think you cared a damn." "1 don't," returned Asbell bluntly. "In fact, 1 liked the idea of Prank Dalmar clouting you. And while I'm about it I may as well tell you that from here on out, there is no welcome for you at Big Five." The lawyer's shadowed eyes burned. "You bothered to come in here to tell me that?" "No, but It is something I wanted to get oft my chest. What I really came to see you about Is Doc Jerome's affidavit on the real cause of Packy Lane's death. I want it" Startled, Tunnison blurted: "You too?" "Yeah, me." Then Asbell caught him up quickly. "Somebody else has been after it? Jonas Dalmar and Bardo Sampson?" Tunnison retreated a little. "They're interested "he admitted cautiously. "Of course I wouldn't let them have it. It was entrusted" to my" cars. So; you're out of luck too:" "No!" Asbell said Curtly. I'm not out of luck. Doc Jerome didn't say Dalmar or Sampson could have it. But he did say I could, He told me to see you and get it from you. Your saying Doc said that, still isn't authorization enough—" It's all the authorization I need." Asbell cut in. "You're stalling, Tunnison-and don't know why you should, But I'm in no mood for stalling I came for that affidavit and I'm going to get it. Where is it? Charley Tunnison's, thoughts began to race a little frantically. Not half an hour ago. Bardo Sampson, had been in this room with the same demand Asbell now made. There had been no offer of money in return for the affidavit, and when reminded of this fact. Bardo had cursed and threatened, Whereupon, Tunnison had flashed the same gun as he had on Johns Dalmar, and drove Bardo from the room under the authority of it. But what about Asbell? It wouldn't do. Tunnison knew, to throw a gun on him. That would be playing the hand all wrong. The tug-of-war he'd been having with Town Dalmar and Bardo Sampson was' one thing. Faced as he was now with Link Asbell's flat demand, was something else again. Which way to turn? It was the. Instinct for politics in Charley Tunnison to, if possible always identify himself with the side which he figured carried the most weight. He knew exactly what Dalmar and Sampson intended, the full im port and scope of their scheming. He knew how far that scheme had advanced, what irrevocable steps had already been taken. But the Anal issue was far from settled. Earlier, along with the lawyer's supper, Husk Greeley had brought word of Frank Dalmar's clash with Willey Goes, of Goss getting lead into Frank and then being himself shot to death by Link Asbell. These facts, Husk Greeley had said, he'd gotten from Doc Jerome. And concluded Tunnison now, they were facts, to throw an altering light on things, That Frank palmar1 and Wiley Goss had gone to the gun, one against the other, suggested all was not what it might be inside' Double Diamond. And any outfit, fighting within its own ranks, was hardly the soundest bet in the world. On the other hand, the lengthening shadow of Link Asbell was now spreading an across the picture. Row much enduring substance did that shadow hold? Charley Tunnison had never cared particularly for Link Asbell mainly because he saw him as an obstacle in the path of his own secret schemes and ambitions. Such as some day getting; his hands on all that was Big Five. Including the vibrant, lovely girl who owned the ranch. Who made Big Five go, these clays? Link Asbell. Who made Double Diamond go? Jonas Dalmar. But Jonas Dalmar was well along to years, and dependent on others to handle the rough chores, And Link Asbell was a young man, perfectly capable of handling those rough chores himself, as he had already proven in his dash with Wiley Goss. Grudgingly, Charley Tunnison recognised the inevitable. Gone now any chance of milking a thousand or two from Jonas Dalmar and Bardo Sampson through the double-edged deal he figured on. In the meantime and for the moment, it would seem that Big Five carried the weight. So the smart thing was to go alow? "The affidavit" Tunnison said, "is In the safe, over in my office. If you want it you'll have to wait until I'm well enough to go there and open the safe." "You're well enough now," Asbell said. "You can see and there's nothing wrong with your hands, which are what you open the safe with. If you need a steadying shoulder along the way. I'll loan you mine. Now get some clothes on. Caught against the dull glow of the windows. Asbell glimpses "the head and shoulders of a man a man -he is definitely trying to kill him" The story| continues here tomorrow.. © By Matt Stuart, 1959; from the Dodd, Mead & Co. novel; disturbed by King Features Syndicate CHAPTER 34 By MATT STUART © By Matt Stuart. 1959; from the Dodd Mead & Co.

That first dislike had long since become a solid, enduring hatred, a hatred particularly virulent since the night in Ben Dillon's Imperial bar not so long ago, when Asbell had beat him savagely, man to man. Added to this were the happenings back at Double Diamond headquarters, earlier this day. caught between, Asbell and Tom Grant, he had had to surrender His rifle, and then been forced to watch Asbell lever the weapon empty into the watering trough, and, as a final insulting gesture, drop the gun into the trough after the cartridges. So at this moment, Sage Wingo knew, the conviction that no matter where he rode, or how far he'd never be free of a nagging discontent unless he settled his, debt of hate with Link Asbell. However. It was something that shaped up as far from easy, and he had to think on it carefully figuring how and when. He always thought better on such things with a shot or two of whiskey under his belt. So, where he'd been riding directly west, he now reined north and west, where the lights" of Garrison town were distant yellow pinpoints in the night. Coming Into town from Running M. Link Asbell rode down Center Street to the Prairie House, where he dismounted and tied. He climbed to the porch and walked in. When he knocked on the door of Room Seven, the first response was a considerable period ofsilence. Finally, after a second knock, Charley Tunnison answered, a definite note of wariness in his voice. "Who is It?" Asbell told him and was summoned in in a tone which if not exactly cordial, was at least somewhat relieved. Tunnison was propped up in bed, the lamp on the bedside ta ble throwing a muted yellow radiance; The lawyer spoke past his face — muffling bandages, faint sarcasm threading his words. "This surprises me, Asbell I didn't think you cared a damn." "1 don't," returned Asbell bluntly. "In fact, 1 liked the idea of Prank Dalmar clouting you. And while I'm about it I may as well tell you that from here on out, there is no welcome for you at Big Five." The lawyer's shadowed eyes burned. "You bothered to come in here to tell me that?" "No, but It is something I wanted to get oft my chest. What I really came to see you about Is Doc Jerome's affidavit on the real cause of Packy Lane's death. I want it" Startled, Tunnison blurted: "You too?" "Yeah, me." Then Asbell caught him up quickly. "Somebody else has been after it? Jonas Dalmar and Bardo Sampson?" Tunnison retreated a little. "They're interested "he admitted cautiously. "Of course I wouldn't let them have it. It was entrusted" to my" cars. So; you're out of luck too:" "No!" Asbell said Curtly. I'm not out of luck. Doc Jerome didn't say Dalmar or Sampson could have it. But he did say I could, He told me to see you and get it from you. Your saying Doc said that, still isn't authorization enough—" It's all the authorization I need." Asbell cut in. "You're stalling, Tunnison-and don't know why you should, But I'm in no mood for stalling I came for that affidavit and I'm going to get it. Where is it? Charley Tunnison's, thoughts began to race a little frantically. Not half an hour ago. Bardo Sampson, had been in this room with the same demand Asbell now made. There had been no offer of money in return for the affidavit, and when reminded of this fact. Bardo had cursed and threatened, Whereupon, Tunnison had flashed the same gun as he had on Johns Dalmar, and drove Bardo from the room under the authority of it. But what about Asbell? It wouldn't do. Tunnison knew, to throw a gun on him. That would be playing the hand all wrong. The tug-of-war he'd been having with Town Dalmar and Bardo Sampson was' one thing. Faced as he was now with Link Asbell's flat demand, was something else again. Which way to turn? It was the. Instinct for politics in Charley Tunnison to, if possible always identify himself with the side which he figured carried the most weight. He knew exactly what Dalmar and Sampson intended, the full im port and scope of their scheming. He knew how far that scheme had advanced, what irrevocable steps had already been taken. But the Anal issue was far from settled. Earlier, along with the lawyer's supper, Husk Greeley had brought word of Frank Dalmar's clash with Willey Goes, of Goss getting lead into Frank and then being himself shot to death by Link Asbell. These facts, Husk Greeley had said, he'd gotten from Doc Jerome. And concluded Tunnison now, they were facts, to throw an altering light on things, That Frank palmar1 and Wiley Goss had gone to the gun, one against the other, suggested all was not what it might be inside' Double Diamond. And any outfit, fighting within its own ranks, was hardly the soundest bet in the world. On the other hand, the lengthening shadow of Link Asbell was now spreading an across the picture. Row much enduring substance did that shadow hold? Charley Tunnison had never cared particularly for Link Asbell mainly because he saw him as an obstacle in the path of his own secret schemes and ambitions. Such as some day getting; his hands on all that was Big Five. Including the vibrant, lovely girl who owned the ranch. Who made Big Five go, these clays? Link Asbell. Who made Double Diamond go? Jonas Dalmar. But Jonas Dalmar was well along to years, and dependent on others to handle the rough chores, And Link Asbell was a young man, perfectly capable of handling those rough chores himself, as he had already proven in his dash with Wiley Goss. Grudgingly, Charley Tunnison recognised the inevitable. Gone now any chance of milking a thousand or two from Jonas Dalmar and Bardo Sampson through the double-edged deal he figured on. In the meantime and for the moment, it would seem that Big Five carried the weight. So the smart thing was to go alow? "The affidavit" Tunnison said, "is In the safe, over in my office. If you want it you'll have to wait until I'm well enough to go there and open the safe." "You're well enough now," Asbell said. "You can see and there's nothing wrong with your hands, which are what you open the safe with. If you need a steadying shoulder along the way. I'll loan you mine. Now get some clothes on. Caught against the dull glow of the windows. Asbell glimpses "the head and shoulders of a man a man -he is definitely trying to kill him" The story| continues here tomorrow.. © By Matt Stuart, 1959; from the Dodd, Mead & Co. novel; disturbed by King Features Syndicate Ike Declares New War On Inflation He did not mention the Industries by name, but a White House source said the appeal was aimed primarily, at steel and automobile makers.
