Bat Not for a Dark-Skinned American
f'ERTA1NLY most laudable are the efforts of Presi-
■ ' dent Kennedy and the state department to secure
adequate lodging facilities for dark-skinned foreign
diplomats—and to safeguard them from the embar-
rassment and insult with which dark-skinned native
citizens are so familiar.
But it leaves the native American of dark skin,
pondering the question, "What about me?"
Responding to an appeal by the government, a
group of Washington realtors has offered to throw
open several large luxury apartment buildings to the
ever-increasing numbers of African diplomatic per-
sonnel, who are taking up residence in the nation's
capitol.
According to the Washington Real Estate board,
at least three downtown apartment buildings, in
choice locations, have agreed to lease apartments to
African embassy personnel.
Certainly this breakthrough is to be applauded.
But native American Negro citizens cannot be
expected to jump for joy. This development under-
scores the fact that, certainly, in this instance, it is
far better to be a dark-skinned foreigner, than a
dark-skinned native-born American—not that the
dark skin should have anything to do with it, in the
first place.
The fact remains, that a Negro foreigner in the
service of his country will be able to get quarters. A
Negro American in the service of his country and
government has the door closed in his face.
The Washington (D. C.) Post has made a point-
ed editorial observation concerning this situation,
as follows.
"Negro citizens of the United States can be for-
given for reacting wryly to the state department's
efforts at finding suitable housing for African diplo-
mats. Of course the department did the proper thing
in calling a meeting to discuss the problem with real
estate and apartment owners, and it is good news
that some of them offered to cooperate. Certainly
it hurts the 'image' of the United States when a non-
white diplomat is affronted by a racial snub. But
it must be doubly galling to American Negroes to
realize that in the capital of the United States, free-
dom in the choice of housing may begin with those
not handicapped by U. S. citizenship.

About Your
HEALTH
i (A weekly public acrvtce reature from
| the Texas State Department of Health,
; Henry A. Holle, M. !>., commissioner
* of health.)
AUSTIN—It may seem early,
but school is just around
the comer and parents with
children entering for the first
time should begin preparing
right now.
The right preparation for those
firxt school days is vital to the
future satisfaction and adjust-
ment of your child to his new
environment.
If he has an older brother or sis-
ter, the task will be eaaier. But there
) are many steps for gettirg ready for
I school which should be taken before
! September.
Some effort should be made to
make it clear to the child that
he will be on his own—without
Mom or Dad there to natch
over him all the time—good
while before that first day of
school.
Clothing should be given much
thought. Check the habits of your
lornl school and find out what is
i the predominant mode of dress, if all
the boys wear long pants, by all
I means make sure your youngster has
them, too.
Make sure everything is large
enough, but not baggy or his ciuss-
matcs will make fun of him.
Proper nutrition is very impor-
tant. When school starts, allow
enough time in the morning for a
wholesome breakfast. A good break-
fan includes citrua fruit or juice,
milk* whole ginin cereal or bread, eggs
or bacon or both.
Lum h and dinner ahould be leisure-
ly and pleaannt, too. Th« new adven-
ture of school ia pretty fast paced,
but mealtime offers an opportunity
for the famiiy to pause and enjuy
being together.

POLICY roxxs or LIFE insueahox
By J. E. TAYLOR, JX.,
J. E. T*jlor, Jr., Agency, General Agent,
Ui'lden Stat* Mutual Life Inauraace Company
(Continued from laat weak.)
Whole Life Polities
THESE policies offer permanent insurance protection for til
whole of life. They are available on the ordinary and limitJu
payment life plans. Unlike term policies, whole life policie«_ in-
clude both protection and investment element*. ~ '
—Both the "period of protection" and the "period of pre]
deposits" extend from the date the
policy is issued up to the insured's age
100 (Using the 1041 Commlaaioners
Standard Ordinary table of uaortal-
Ity). If the poliejfeolder does not
die and ereate a claim before age
100, he himself will be paid the face
amount of the policy.
Many companies
have a policy
which endows or
becomes paid up
at age 85. Few peo-
ple, up to this
date, live to either
age 8f or age 100.
Therefore, from the
standpoint of the
young policyhold-
er, at least, it
makes little differ-
ence whether the
policy he owns ia TAYIiOR
a whole life or an endowment sr
paid-up at age 85 type.
Modified Life—An example of an-
other type of whole life policy is the
modified life contract. Premium pat-
terns differ from company to com-
pany, but the essential idea common
to all is that the premium rate ia
reduced for the period of years indi-
cated in the name (e. g.t five yeara
modified life), followed by a level
premium thereafter. The reduction in
the early years is balanced by an
Increase in the subsequent years.
Limited Payment Life—A popular
type of whole life policy is tie lim-
ited payment life policy. Thia policy
ia made up of a "period of
that extenda to age 100 and a
of premium depoaita" that can be var-
ied to aoit the deaires aal the infill
ments of ths insured. The 20 pat-,
ment life policy ia very frequeatly
used. However, the number of pre-
mium deposits can vary all the way
from one (single premium) to 100
! (a whole life policy issued at afe 0).
At the younger ages, a 3(Vpayment
life policy may prove more deairable
j than an ordinary life contract at tha
same age. Thia ia true because tha
small difference in premium ia offot
by the advantage of having the policy
fully paid up at the time in life
