The Pepsi-Cola Company and its 650 bottlers are dedicated

to the idea of making Pepsi-Cola the most wholesome refreshment

you can buy.

To bring this ideal to reality, Pepsi-Cola not only exercises

the greatest care in its own laboratories-but has developed

its field laboratory which goes from one bottling plant to another,

helping your Pepsi-Cola bottler meet Pepsi-Cola standards

of quality.

This mobile laboratory checks every detail starting with the

water supply-which may be good enough to drink yet not be good

enough for the delicate flavor of Pepsi-Cola. From there the

laboratory checks sugar, concentrate, syrup, cleansing agents,

bottles, crowns-every step involved in bringing Pepsi-Cola

to your mouth.

There is now a fleet of these field laboratories in operation all over

the country. When it comes to what you drink no standard is

too high, no care too great.

The mobile lab is but one example of the spirit of cooperation

that exists between Pepsi-Cola and its bottlers.

This exchange of know-how may not show up on our financial sheet.

But it is one of our greatest assets, and a very real factor in the

large sales increases of Pepsi-Cola in recent years. Have a Pepsi.

Ta Philadelphia public school with a large

A and growing minority of Negro pupils, two

small Negro boys recently got into a fight. A

larger white boy tried to separate them. A

larger Negro boy, thinking he was picking on

them, came to their aid. Another white boy

pitched in. Soon a juvenile race riot was in

full swing.

Teachers cooled off the fight but not the

fighters. Negro and white boys took garbled

stories home. Word went to adjacent districts:

War after school. tomorrow: come help your

own color. A Negro father armed his boy for

school with a wickedly sharpened file. A white

mother issued her son a bread knife. Police

arrested over 60 armed children.

The school and the police called a think-

it-over meeting of parents from both groups.

But neither side got. any nearer sense than

snarling accusations that the other side was

"always starting something. Many of the pa-

rents carried umbrellas, even though it was

a fine night. Numerous able-bodied young

fathers had walking sticks. Nobody knows how

many of those attending were carrying con-

cealed knives and blackjacks, since violence

did not break out.

Progress Has Been Made

But Philadelphia today realizes she can't

take a chance on such dangerous tensions. In

her new city charter, she now has a Commis-

sion on Human Relations to protect people

against discrimination on the grounds of race,

color, religion or national origin.

Since World War II, numerous American

cities have set up such organs-some effective,

some mere pious gestures backed by readily

repealable local ordinances. In Philadelphia

alone is the idea imbedded in the city's fund-

amental law as deeply as the office of mayor.

It's too early yet to say whether the Philadel-

----------- 6 -----------

phia commission can carry out its assignment.

But such commissions in Detroit, Chicago and

Cleveland have already shown, in activity cov-

ering a significant stretch of time, that savvy

and good will sometimes get results.

Group hate feeds on violence as retaliations

pyramid. Chicago's Commission on Human Re-

lations early got ample co-operation from Chi-

cago's separate Park Police. That was crucial

because Chicago's parks and beaches, infested

by race and nationality gangs maintaining

private deadlines, had long been a festering

breeding place for trouble.

Fair Play Aids All

By now, the Park Police human-relations

manual, prepared by Prof. Joseph D. Lohman,

University of Chicago criminologist, is in

heavy demand by other police departments

throughout the country. Most of the Park Po-

lice command has had university courses in

human relations. Park rookies are taught that

professional pride means acting regardless of

prejudice. The gist of the teaching is:

Never mind your personal feelings about

Negroes, Jews, Italians or whatever. Keep

your own dumb opinions if you like. But don't

let them spoil your professional efficiency. A

cop's job is to enforce the law according to the

book on everybody, but everybody, who steps

out of line. If he can't manage that, he is a poor

cop, just as a shortstop who can't move fast

to his right is a poor ballplayer. As successive

batches of rookies are thus indoctrinated, as

command discovers how even-handed enforce-

ment saves grief and danger for the whole

force, Chicago has seen much less of Park

Police playing favorites in making arrests.

Clever new tactics now smother trouble

fast. On his own responsibility, any Park

policeman can radio direct for large-scale help,

Oil-rich sands bring King Ibn Saud wealth, prestige-and worry

NHE fabulously wealthy King Ibn Saud rules with stern and shrewd command a

land which scholars think may have been the birthplace of mankind. Now that

he has become not only one of the richest, but one of the most-necessary-to-be-

NHE Federal Penitentiary on Alcatraz Işland

I stands as a grim monument to the most

inmate rebellions and returns more men to

criminal careers than it reforms.

Alcatraz reflects the folly of men who per-

tough criminals, when the accumulated les-

sons of a century demonstrate that tough

prisons make tougher criminals. America's

them like animals. Over the past several years,

Federal officials who supervise the island fort-

ress have been quietly but firmly urging that

it be abolished as a costly white elephant. It

will be abandoned as soon as Congress gives

Federal prison authorities the go-ahead signal.

Alcatraz is at one end of the prison scale-

the dead end. At the other end are two rela-

tively new institutions-prisons without walls

other by the State of California. Both are

widely recognized as models of minimum-

security prisons for men, top examples of the

new penology.

If Alcatraz is an isle of despair, the Cali-

fornia Institution for Men at Chino, and the

Federal Correctional Institution at Seagoville,

Texas, are havens of hope. The one is based on

fear and repression, the others on trust and a

maximum of freedom within a penal setting.

Some

o of the astonished awe that the early conquistadors experienced

they came face to face with the treasures of Mexico was felt by

hundreds of thousands of Europeans who walked into the Musée

Art Moderne in Paris this summer and saw for the first time an

orhibition of 25 centuries of Mexican art. Every facet of art expression

was represented, from monumental pre-Columbian sculptures in vol-

canic stone and colonial baroque church art to papier-mâché figures

used in this year's fiestas. Mixed feelings greeted the works of the big

four-Orozco, Rivera, Tamayo and Siqueiros-but there is no uncer-

tainty about the enormous impact that Mexico's dynamic art and

artists had on the critics, the public and the artists of Europe.

The Universe, Mexico, Diego and I by Frida Kahlo, wife of Diego Ri-

vera, to whom she gives (above) the mark of Eastern deities-a third

eye. Frida Kahlo's individual and meticulous work is away from the

main trends of Mexican painting, which have been chiefly concerned

with the social scene. Like most of her canvases, this one draws largely

on the surrealist school of Europe for its inspiration, yet is natively

Mexican in its use of color and sense of cosmic grandeur.

deities or to the popular ceramics of the Mexican people

Son of Paleface defies TV to top zany mishmash

of bandits, Indians, a Harvard man, a horseless

carriage, Roy Rogers and Jane Russell's garters

'D like to see television top this," Bob Hope gags in

Son of Paleface, film sequel to Paleface. Paramount

producer Bob Welch boasts that he tossed into the

movie all the ingredients folks watch on TV. The pot-

pourri includes Jane Russell as a lady bandit named

Mike who operates the Dirty Shame Saloon in the town

of Sawbuck Pass. To entertain the customers, she

dances in striped satin, long gloves and opera-length

hose which display some heretofore-ignored Russell

features. Roy Rogers, assisted by Trigger, is both a cow-

boy and a Federal agent. Hope, driving a l1900-vintage

auto, plays a Harvard man gone West to collect a for-

tune. He also doubles as his pappy's ghost. Prop men

put $5000's worth of gadgets into Hope's jalopy to make

it do what no self-respecting automobile should.

There's a story line, too-with drama, music and a chase

in the best Western tradition-which is on display

briefly between the stunts.
