Dixie Governors To Ease Crisis
WASHINGTON — (UP) — Four "moderate" southern governors presented to President Eisenhower today a plan for easing the Little Rock school integration crisis.
They refused to reveal their "plan of action," but it was understood to call for withdrawal of federal troops from Little Rock coupled with a promise to "sell" Arkansas' Gov. Orval E. Faubus on any compromise solution and win assurance of his compliance.
For the first time since the dispute started, a unified group of Little Rock's top professional and civic leaders took a public hand in it.
Meanwhile National Guardsmen replaced the regulars of the 101st Airborne Division on daytime sentry duty around Central High School in Little Rock in the first step toward withdrawal of federal troops.
The nine Negro students drove to school as usual this morning in an army station wagon preceded and followed by jeepploads of troops.
Twenty-four professional and business leaders met and announced that they felt it would be "unwise" for Gov. Faubus to call a special session of the state legislature while "emotions are aroused and the situation is yet tense."
Hodges and Govs. Leroy Collins of Florida, Theodore R. McKelldin of Maryland and Frank Clement of Tennessee drafted their "plan of action" at a marathon strategy meeting which broke up two hours before they went to the White House.
Attendance at Central continued to rise. The school has a total enrollment of 2,000 students. Yesterday, 1,520 attended. This total compared with 1,250 last Wednesday when troops integrated the school, 1,350 Thursday and 1,415 Friday.
Ike Calls For New Atoms-For-Peace Plan
VIENNA—(UP)—President Eisenhower delivered a new atoms-for-peace call today coupled with a prayer "that the split of the atom may some day unify a divided world."
In a message read to the opening session here of the 5-nation International Atomic Energy Conference, the President urged a worldwide nuclear development program "whereby the fissioned atom will be transformed into the means of providing richer, healthier and happier lives."
Teamsters Try To Block Hoffa's Bid
WASHINGTON, —(UP)—The last-jist appeal by 13 rank-and file Teamsters trying to head off election of James R. Hoffa as the union president may be acted on today by Chief Justice Earl Warren. The members asked for a decision on the appeal before the vote is held, either Thursday or Friday, at the Teamster Convention in Miami Beach.

Protestant Group OKs Remarriage Of Widows, Advocates Equality For Wives
NEW YORK —(UP)— A broad family life policy approving remarriage of widows and advocating full equality for wives has been set forth by an official of the National Council of Churches, leading voice of Protestantism in the United States.
It was offered as guidance to the 37 million members of 30 Protestant and Eastern Orthodox churches represented by the national council.

The council said it wanted to clarify the family life matters for Protestants because Pope Pius XII said Monday Catholic women

"We hope the public will understand there is a Protestant point of view on these things," a council spokesman said. Widowhood is not necessarily a higher spiritual state

A Message from
Ed Johnson M.E., Class of '51, Purdue University
"For wide open opportunities and intriguing projects with a sound, expanding company . . . Emerson Electric is the right spot for the young engineer."
"Compared to some companies in avionics and electronics work, Emerson Electric is considered a medium size company . . . and this, in my opinion, has tremendous advantages. At Emerson the individual's personal creative contribution is definitely of measurable importance to the company and is recognized as such. Consequently, his opportunities for advancement are much greater here."
"Furthermore, Emerson is a growth company. RIGHT NOW we are in the midst of the most ambitious expansion program in the Company's history. It's a soundly conceived program, based on long-range avionics and electronics projects, plus stable commercial production. This means the young engineer who joins our team at this stage will have wide open opportunities. His career won't be blocked by the discouraging constriction at middle and top levels so characteristic of companies which have already reached full growth.
There you have Assistant Chief Methods Engineer Ed Johnson's view of career possibilities at Emerson Electric. The ink on Ed's M.E. degree was barely dry when he started with us. Opportunity has been an important factor in his success story, and after just six years with the company it isn't complete by any means.
"And for intriguing, man-sized jobs, at Emerson we don't take a back seat to anyone . . . the magnitude, scope and variety of projects is right up there with many of the biggest in industry."
Ed's first Emerson job was in the production department as an administrative assistant. From there he moved to a shop foreman. In his own words . . . "I wouldn't trade the experience gained there for anything. It's the most valuable in the world to me today." Next, to tool project engineer, then on to senior man in this same division. In his present position as Assistant Chief Methods Engineer, Ed has responsibility for tooling the entire Emerson plant.
In brief, here is a sample of Emerson's diversification of projects: the Commercial Division, established in 1890, ranks among the world's leaders in fractional horsepower motors and fans, and includes air conditioners, heaters, power saws and arc welders. The Electronics and Avionics Division has been a leader nationally since 1940 in design, development and manufacture of the very latest fire control systems (for example, the supersonic B-58 Hustler bomber), missiles and rockets (the Honest John, Little John and others), microwave antennas, supersonic airframes like the F-101 Voodoo and mortar locators.
Find out how you can get in on the ground floor of this fast growing, medium size company. Meet Emerson's engineering representatives and talk it over with them. If it's impossible to make a date, be sure to write to A. L. Depke for full details.
