‘BUSINESS BOOMING’
New Era Beginning
For Horticulturists
Members of the 26th annual
A&M Conference for Nurserymen
and Landscape Horticulturist were
urged here Monday to take advan
tage of a new era which is dawning
in their business.
The appeal came from Dr. Jos
eph E. Howland, assistant to the
president for O. M. Scott and Sons
Company of Marysville, Ohio, a
firm which deals in misery and
gardening supplies.
He explained to the estimated 85
persons attending the session that
gardening interest is booming, and
he offered several pointers which
should help dealers benefit from
the boom.
Howland suggested that the nus-
erymen and landscapists promise
benefits that the customer wants
and “that you can surely deliver.”
“Don’t take much of the cus
tomer’s time unless it can be ex
changed for interesting and useful
information,” he said.
Howland asked that the dealer

Sen. John Tower
Slated For Award
United States Senator John
Tower of Texas will be given the
Americans for Constitutional Ac
tion Second Biennial Distinguished
Service Award at a reception giv
en in his honor by ACA’s national
Boai'd of Trustees.
The organization’s Board in
cludes such distinguished Ameri
cans as former President Herbert
Hoover, Edgar Eisenhower, Ad
miral Ben Moreell, former Navy-
Secretary Charles Edison, and
other outstanding- civic and pro
fessional leaders.
The reception, to be held in the
Nation’s Capital, is expected to at
tract more than 400 people, among
which are 150 leading United
States Senators and Representa
tives; former members of Congress
and nationally known civic, profes

assure a customer’s success by
building it into the advice given.
Check merchandise quality con
tinuously and to high standards,
he urged.
‘Deliver more per dollar year
by year and share the profit that
comes with age,” Howland con
tinued.
The conference will be continued
through noon Tuesday. Sponsors
are A&M in co-operation with the
Research and Education Committee
of the Texas Association of Nus-
erymen.
Another program speaker,
George McNew, Fort Worth man
agement consultant, pointed out
that a new market waiting to be
exploited more fully is the land
scaping of industrial and commer
cial buildings and grounds.
“There is a great need all around
the country to develop and main
tain the type of industrial land
scaping which provides the right
eye appeal,” he said. ‘But of
equal importance is developing
such work so that there is the
least possible maintenance ex
pense.”
McNew urged the conference
members to keep records faithfully
and accurately, and never let up
on quality of products.
Supreme Court
Rules In Favor
Of Sit-Ins
WASHINGTON (JP) — The Su
preme Court ruled Monday that
a state or city may not interfere,
in any fashion, with peaceful ra
cial integration sit-in demonstra
tions in public places of business.
But the multiple ruling did not
clearly spell out the legal position
of the individual shopkeeper who
may wish to restrict his clientele
without the support of segrega
tion laws.
The tribunal not only struck
down laws and ordinances against
peaceful sit-in demonstrations, but
barred action or statements by of
ficials that might influence shop
keepers to turn away Negro cus
tomers.
It was a decision with more far-
reaching impact on racial rela
tions in daily life than any since
the school desegregation decrees
of nearly a decade ago.
This new historic ruling was
laid down in seven cases, mostly
centered on arrest during the 1960
campaign to integrate lunch
counters and other business in
the South. Involved were cases
from Alabama, Louisiana, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia
and Maryland.
These appeals involved 44 indi
viduals but about 3,000 other dem
onstrators adjudged guilty in simi
lar cases long have been looking
to the Supreme Court for word
that might free them of these
convictions.
