To describe where this is located is, to say the least, difficult, a let's let it go by saying that it is at the end of two alleys-one runnin east from Maynard, one moving north from William-in back of tU DKE tempe, and over the Potters Guild. Entry to the loft itself is ofte obstructed by some vehicle (usually foreign), and there are signs, a unlikely places that point it out. Last Friday evening there was also a Hawaiian-type torch to ligt up the entry as well as the refuse cans and general clutter of debr that is to be expected in alleys and, often, loft galleries, We wer reminded of Mehitabel. Anyone haying visited the premises befo2 will not, in all probability, have any qualms at going onl, and even tb rather indefinite directions avail- able and the nearly sinister locale should not put off even a novice4a to the place. The showing is more y than worth the trouble of finding it out. southern Approach to Integration Necessary to Its Implementation VO RECENT DECISIONS by American. courts have brought back to the integration tion one element it has been lacking since 1954 Supreme Court decision, namely, con- ration of Southern feelings and problems. onday a federal district judge, ordered by a er court to fix a definite date for integra- of schools in Prince Edward County in inia's "black-belt' country, set 1965 as a tative" date. This case has been pending- e 1954 being one of the priginal five cases hich the Supreme Court based its "historic' gregation decision. The recent delay was ed by Southerners as a victory. he Little Rock integration dispute is now g' handled by the United States Eighth suit Court of Appeals in St. Louis. The city's; ol board was previously granted a reprieve 1 1961 to integrate its schools, The Court is reconsidering the controversy about sus- lion of integration which was begun last "Its outcome .could affect the pace of )ol desegregation throughout the South," news story said. IC of these recent integeration questions show attention has been given the Southern lem which a court of Northern judges, ng in a Washington, D.C., marble palace hardly hlave grasped, especially when the sion was destined to make this court famous merican history. he South has a large Negro population, in ir states almpst as large as the white pope- in. When a practice of 100 years of publicly- >orted segregated schools is wiped away in blow by a court, a tradition is killed. A long i, perhaps the 100 years which saw the rise hie present system of state education, could, onably be expected for Implementation of decision. This has not been the intent of' the Court, however, and the rapid desegregation has made many white Southerners adamant in their fight to delay the inevitable. The recent primary victory of the segregation hero of Little Rock, Orval Faubus, shows that the white citizens uphold his use of troops to stifle integration. In some Southern states, Georgia, for example, integration has not taken place and the winners of state offices are rabid segregationalists. THE NORTHERN "liberal" mind refuses to consider that the segregationalists may be right, or at least strong and vocal enough to make it appear that they are right on the integration question. No court can force people against their firm beliefs on an emotional issue such as this; it merely makes them more militant, A Southern solution to a Southern problem is what should be encouraged, and it is the only solution which can work. The recent court decisions delaying integration have tended to recognize this. A gradual education of white Southerners, or merely time to approach the integration question very slowly and accept the inevitable is the only solution which will work in the South. A Little Rock affair every year does no one any good; it is hard on the children, many of whom accept integration without battle; it is hard on national prestige and it accomplishes nothing, unless a violent show, of ill feelings is the desired result. ".urry up, please, it's time"-T. S. Eliot's line from "The Wasteland"-has no place in the integration question; it is a question of conscience and time, and it is only regrettable that any decision of the type is forced upon citizens against their will. -ROBERT JUNKER }A A s t rrs .stt«1Gro J ¢ c>sr + .." WASHINGTON MERRY-GO-ROUND- River Park Bill Dammed Up By DREW PEARSON UPSTAIRS (hang on to the rail- ing, tightly) the Loft presents a fair sized room not too densely populated with things and an exhibit that was quite pleasing to see. , ' The pieces shown (paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints) are vigorous without being wild, ad- venturous without being fool hardy, forceful without being over-, whelming. And if that isn't enough, they are not facile copies of other, more notorious or illustrious art practitioners. For so young a group (the very pleasant brochure lists, among other details, ages for all ex- hibitors, and they range between 21 and 30) the works display a sureness and maturity of concept and manipulation that is gratify- ing and unusual. At the same time the pieces, shown escape the labored or lugu- brious or worked-over. The Lofters -in the person of Mrs. Malcom McMullen, chairman-received us most hospitably both socially and in their willingness to share with +us their work, for which we are' trulyappreciative. NONE of the works shown are what one could term bad (even though not all might appeal to everyones personal, tastes) and several are really tops quality. Bill Barrett is showing two welded - metal sculptures, both rather fine: we particularly like "Hey There," as jaunty and bright a bit of sculpttre as we have seen (and, despite. the sound of it, ex- cellently titled). We are also impressed with Mary Ashley's "Teapot With Lemons," Sara Symington's "Primary Still Life," and Liz Krachenberg's "Ficus Elastica." Robert Kraft has two oils-"Regatta" and "Talk"- which may well be tops in the collection. "HEY THERE" ... Jaunty, bright U.S. Troop.Withdrawal Needed "CHEERING" news from Lebanon yes- rday was that Vaud Shehab, Lebanon's ent-elect has said that the withdrawal nerican troops from Lebanon was "fore- among his national aims." e statement seemed to be rather vague, no time limit for the removal of troops. set by Shehab.

The troops can truthfully be said to have done their job well. But prolonging, our soldiers stay in Lebanon should not add ;much towards advancing our cause in Lebanon or the Middle East. BUT IT SHOULD not appear that wishy- washy comments by Faud Shehab or more truculent threats by Lebanese rebel leaders have brought about the withdrawal. Rather, the credit for the move should be placed .on the shoulders of Lebanese President Chamoun. Bringing this state of affairs about may be easier said than done. As one method of achiev- ing these ends, we would suggest that the American troop withdrawals should start early one morning in the next month or two. About noon of the same day, President Chamoun should casually announce that the United States troops are being withdrawn, as he requested, and then go back to clearing up his office preparatory to1leaving the Lebanese presidency. This would both minirpize the importance of the withdrawals and emiphasize that Chamoun, and not the rebels, has control of the situation. rHEN, whenever.Chamoun is ready, he should be invitedt to come to the United States after his term of office is up Sept. 23. We have waited our lavish welcomes on people much less deserv- ing. Chamoun has and he should be given the welcome and the appreciation that he deserves. Chamoun has done an excellent job in warn- ing of and acting against the dangers present in the Middle East. If he sometimes appears, to be a prophet without honor in his own country, he should not be in ours., -LANE VAN'DERSLICE WASHINGTON - How a single member of Congress can thwart the majority will of the Senate and House, plus a prom- inent member of the Supreme Court, is demonstrated in the cur- rent holdup of a bill to create a, national park on the Potomac River in near-by Maryland. For more than a year this bill, already passed by the Senate, has been -blocked by one lady - Rep. Gracie Pfost of Idaho, Democrat, in the House Interior Committee. Mrs. Pfost is a beautiful and charming lady who is passionately devoted to dams in her section of the country. She is so passionate about dams that she also wants dams near Washington. However, what's good for Idaho is not always good for Maryland, Virginia, and the, District of Co- lumbia..Pespite this, Gracie has set herself up as the lady dictator to overrule the Senate, the House, the Interior Department, wild life conservators, and millions of others who want to develop a national park along the Potomac. * * * THE PARK extends along the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, orig- inally surveyed by George Wash- ington and built to carry the early commerce of the capital up toward the Ohio River. The canal now belongs to the government. And the city of Washington, bulging with around 1,954,000 peo- ple in its metropolitan area, needs a near-by recreation park. The government already owns the ca- nal, and the bill already passed by the Senate would help develop it for recreation and wild life. The Gentle Lady from Idaho, however, wants a high water dam on the Potomac just as she wants a high dam, Hells Canyon, on the Snake River. So she has suspended hearings on the C & 0 Canal Park. Wit- nesses have asked to be heard. Other members of Congress are ready to pass the bill, but Gentle Lady Gracie, as chairman of the . subcommittee of the House In- terior Committee, says no. She won't hold any more hearings. When ,Republicans were blocking a vote on Hells Canyon in this" same committee, a lot of people came to Gracie's defense. Philip Randolphofathe Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and Clarence Mitchell of the NAACP tried to persuade Congressman Adam Clay- ton Powell of Harlem, who held the key vote, to go back to Wash- ington and vote. Carmine de Sapio, head of Tammany, and many others tried to help the Gentle Lady from Idaho get her dam. But now that some other people want a park near Washington, and she wants a dam, the Gentle Lady is just as obstinate and elusive as Congressman Adam Clayton Powell. Note-The Senate bill providing for the park contains a concrete provision that if the Army en- gineers find Washington needs a dam, it would have priority. * * * LUNCHING at the Turkish em- bassy the other day, Gen. Nathan Twining, efficient chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, received eye-opening facts regarding the arms Russia has been supplying her allies in the Near East com- pared with the American arms , supplied our allies. Gen. Feyzj Menguc, Turkish chief of staff, told Twining how Russia had shipped the most mod- ern weapons in her arsenal to Syria, on Turkey's southern bord-' er, also to Egypt, both members of the United Arab Republic., He told how Russian MIG-17s sent to Syria now fly over Russian territory, while the Turkish air force, equipped with slow-flying American Sabre-Jets, can't reach them. Twining listened carefully; prom- ised to try to send Turkey some- thing besides out-of-date American arms. From the Turkish chief of staff, he received a modest re- quest for 60,000 Garand lifles. 'Turkish soldiers make about the best infantrymen in the world. Naturally General Menguc wanted modern rifles for them. GENERAL TWINING promised to do his best, but found that un- fortunately the United States does not have enough Garand rifles on handto supply Turkey before 1959. By that time we could supply 40,- 000. The full 60,000 would not be available until 1960. The Eisenhower Administration has now awakened to the import- ance of Turkey's vital role within gunshot of Russia's armed might. For three years Turkey has been trying to get an 300,000,,000 credit from the United States, even hired ex-Gov. Tom Dewey, the man who made Ike President, as its lawyer in order to help get the- loan. However, only a driblet of money was forthcoming. With the Iraqui-Lebanon crisis, however, the Administration has awakened to Turkey's importance and has arranged to extend $334,- 000,000 to Turkey. Part is being advanced by the United States, part by the International Monetary Fund, part by the Organization for European Economic Coperation. (Copyright 1958 by Bell syndicate, Inc.)

"Volunteers" would have to operate from Syria, Egypt and some of the Arabian sheik- doms, and there doesn't seem to be any source for them except the Soviet Union.

But (EDITOR'S NOTE-This is the fifth in a series of dispatches by Daily city editor John Weicher who is touring Europe this summer.) By JOHN WEICHER Special to the Daily A THENS-Not even the Middle East crisis could push Cyprus out of the headlines of the Greek papers. The status of the island is of far more burning importance here than any summit conference .- unless, of course, it includes Cyprus on the agenda. The recent wave of arrests by the British haye caused a storm of, protest in Greece. The island's governor, Sir Hugh Fort, has been accused of "Hitler-like methods." The Turkish Cypriot leader's quick trip to Ankara while 2,000 Greeks were arrested drew all manner of abuse as has the small number of Turks arrested lately; and con- tinued complaints of "Anglo- Turkish conspiracy" are heard. Unfortunately, there appears to be some justice in the last charge. A number of Britons here acknowl- PdLY is. d thuat heBitshdli a calling for enosis, a British resort to such tactics, plunging the island into an ever-fiercer civil war, at one strok'e undoes the material benefits of British rule and leaves' Britain with no better claim to be the champion of law and order than Greece has. What is particularly unfortun- ate, from the American point of view, is that the continued struggle with Britain has tended to push Greece into the "neutralist" camp. Her antipathy toward Britain caused her to view the Anglo- American Middle East intervention with a comparatively skeptical eye, accepting only as an excuse the possibility of Communist trouble- making there. THE OMINOUS foreign min- isters' meeting between Greece, Yugoslavia and the United Arab Republic should also give pause to the West. Cyprus has led Greece to listen closely to Nasser's brand of anti- colonialism ajnd Tito's claims of independence from either side., garia after World War II. Recent Communist pleas -for legaliZations of their party have fallen on extremely deaf ears inI both government and opposition. * * *, BUT, WHILE the Russians can gain little directly in Greece from any defection, they could succeed in virtually isolating Turkey and putting a neutral wedge between NATO and Baghdad Pact mem- bers. While many Greeks realize that1 Turkey is not primarily to blame' in Cyprus (one paper here as- serted that "Britain is using Tur- key against Greece now as it used Greece against Turkey in 1919 be- cause it can only gain from Greco- Turkish tensions") they do not particularly favor that nation, for so long their ruler.
