GAS COMPANIES MERGE
The merger of Seattle Gas
Company and Washington Gas and
Electric Company has been ap
proved by the Washington Public
Service Commission.
This was announced in Omaha
today by Harry Smith, president

ties firm effected the merger.

ing Natural Gas Company. The
merger is effective November 1,

NEGRO EDUCATOR SHOWS
THE KEY
4
Cleo Blackburn, for 19 years
the dynamic head of Flanner
House, Indianapolis’ Negro set
tlement house, has dedicated his
career to helping those of mar
ginal means take a bigger part
in a bigger share of American
life.
In the November Readeifs Di
gest Stanley High says that
Indianapolis’ Negro slums were
among the worst when Blackburn,
then 26, was asked to direct Flan
ner house. Occuping ramshackle
buildings^ Flanner was inade
quately staffed and financed, and
did little but dispense charity.
With a $4,000. grant from the
Indianapolis Foundation, Blacb
bum made the first complete
susvey of the city’s Negso popu
lation and set up a new Flanner
House in an abandoned factory in
the poorest neighborhood.
Today Flanner House occupies
four modern buildings valued at
nearly $1 million, has a profes
sional staff of 70 and an annual
budget of $250,000. Its program
has taught better work habits,
added new skills, opened new job
j opportunities and helped the phy
| sically handicapped toward self
support.
By dint of thrift and hard
work,, Blackburn in his early
years went through the Southern
I Christian institute in Mississippi
[and later Butler University in
Indiana. He won scholarships at
Fisk University and elsewhere.
In 1951, Dallas, Texas business
men approved a five-year budget
of $14 million to carry out Black
bum’s program of “fundamental
education” for the needy.
He became president of Jarvis
Christian College at Hawkins,
Texas, in 1953. Flanner House

people, irrespective or race.
A Timely Remindeo
“Father,” said young William,
“I’ve decided to become a detec
tive. Right now I’m practicing the
art of detection. Let me give you
an example. In our back yard
there is a large pile of ashes. By
deduction that is evidence that
we’ve had fires going all winter.*
“Very good,” rejoined father.
“Suppose you go out and sift the
evidence.”
Any Day
Scientists are monkeying a
round with a ray 1,000 times
more powerful than the-atom. Any
day now we expect to hear of an
atom splitting a scientist.
Gleam of Hep#
For the first hour it was an argu
ment, then it became a dreary
monolog. The wife, not contest
with simply having her way, seem
ed bent upon reducing her husband
to a state of adject submimhm.
The man tried several times to
bring the harangue to a close, but
now contented himself by interject
ing at appropriate intervals a plain
tive, “Yes dear—yes dear.”
Plainly provoked by her hus
band’s failure to fight back, the
woman finally shouted, “You are

possible to live with you!”
A gleam of hope brightened the

Agriculture
In The Soviet
Is Topic
Dr. William V. Lambert, Uni
versity of Nebraska, and Dr. Gale
Johnson, University of Chicago
who toured Russia this summer,
will speak on “The Soviet Agri
cultural Economy" Wednesday
evening October 26. in the Uni
versity of Omaha auditorium.
The 8:15 program is the third
of six lectures to be presontel in
:the University’s tentih annual
| World Affairs Institute. The
professors’ talks will coincide
jwith the general theme of the
lectures, “Since the Summit,”
which refers to the Geneva con
vention.
Lambert, Dean of the Nebras-'
ka University College of Agricul
ture, headed the American farm
; representatives who traveled a
bout 10 thousand miles behind
the Iron Curtain last July and
August.
Dr. Lambert has reported that
while the American farmer would
appreciate the effort being made
by Russia to increase its agricul
tural production, he would revolt
at the methods and waste of man
power.
The p r j n cipal accolnplish
ments” of the tour according to
the Nebraska expert were:
—Small penetration of the iron
curtain.
—A first long look at what
Russian agriculture is doing.
—Proof that Americans “can
survive six weeks of Russian
Meals."
Dr. Johnson is agricultural ec
onomist from Chicago University.
