It is ironic that so much tragedy and grief should occur at times when people are taking • few days off from their ordinary wtfrk'and cares: ' —0- flSpeaking for some of the southern states, Sen. Eastland of Mississippi, just as much as told the Supreme Court “to go hang" if the court' thought that outlawing of segregation would be enforced in his state. He defied the high , court to enforce its decision and said the southern states will retain segregation, even if local "police have to be used in preventing colored children from going to the public schools. If the _ tables were turned, what would Sen. Eastland and other highbound southerners doing about the problem? 0 0 Evidently’ Attorney General Brownell wants to get in on the ( - Arniv - McCarthy hearing and threatens action in learning how the Wisconsin senator got secret FBI files.

Indict him, "they can just go right ahead”. Mr. Brownell will probably be advised to let the bear run. 0 0 « Many times commencement addresses are prosaic and salted down with a "vein of alarm” about the world outside of the classroom, but* not so with tne speech given by Dr. Phillip Maxwell of Chicago to the Decatur high school graduating class. A showman himself and Indoctrinated with the spirit that life is worth living, the famed director of the Chicagoland Music Festival delivered a unique, if not a new' type of coms&encement address. He took the stiffness out of a formal program by having his audience* sing. His challenged the graduates with "keep your mind occupied with creative things. Tackle what you think is impossible”. To be successful, he expounded the theory that one must carry a song in his -eart. He also packed in some sound and needy advice, urging the graduates to “have a faith in God. in your country and in yourself". There might be reason for tears from the sentimentality that goes with commencements, but Phil Maxwell - sent his audience home with a twinkle and a smile. He is a great actor and inspiring speaker. o 0 Memorial Day:— It is right that we should pause on this day and remember the' brave men who paid with their lives the price of our liberty. But if our tribute is to have real meaning jyf jinust make it more than a one-day dose of sentimentality. • We must translate the idea of Memorial Day into our daily living. It means making democracy work by working at the business of governing ourselves wisely and well. It means shouldering our responsibilities to maintain freedom for all people. It means remembering that every man, regardless of his color or creed, has a right to live in dignity. In the words of Lincoln: “It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before .us; that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion.” ’
