Fred Wettrick understands the
problems not only of the first con-
gressional district but also Alas

eran of the World War. Not a
blemish against him in public or

prove friend to all the people re-

the two. If you want a real pro-

COLORED STUDENT
ADMITTED TOLAW

BALTIMORE. Md. Calvin
Douglass has jug. been admitted
as a student to the night class,
first year of the University Of Ma
ryland law school. The report that
colored student had been admit
ed was verified by the dean Of the
law school. Young Douglass Is the
second Negro student to be admit
ted to the university law school In
its history,
Donald Gaines Murray was ad-
mitted In September, 1888. to the
regular day classes after court
battle begun June. 1885. in which
the Baltimore city court orderei
the university to admit him and
the decision was later affirmed by
the Maryland court of appeal The
court upheld the contention Of
Thurgood Marshall and Charles H.
Houston, attorneys for the NAAC
P. that the state was violating the
constitution by providing graduate
and professional training for white
students at tax-supported institu-
tions. but providing no such train
ing for Negro students. The court
held that the state must either "at
once" provide law school for Ne
groes equal to the University Of
Maryland law school or it must
admit Negro students to the uni
versity law school.
In his first wear in the law school
Murray has mad no difficulty at
all. He has made good scholar
ship record and is on friendly
terms with members of his class
and the faculty.
Similar legal actions are pend

LITERARY HOAX
RKS REPUBLICANS

WASHINGTON ~ The Republic
cans have it on the Democrats
right here at the home-plate. and
the count is two strikes and four
balls" on the Democrats. When
Republican bigwigs went out scalp
hunting this week in preparation
for the Campaign, one Of the first
things they found was a booklet
compiled by the vest-pocked Color
ed National Democratic League,
which purports to show, but which
sadly fails to show, the alleged
benefits" the Negro has suppos-
edly gotten from the New Deal.
The booklet, with catchy title
and all the trimmings, shows fig
ures on the New Deal, which, If
anything, put the New Deal on
the spot with the colored voters.
The sad figures, it has been said,
are ghost figures prepared for the
Democratic organization by some
private publicity agent in the en-
pIcy of either the New Deal or the
Democratic organization in ques-
ton. Even at that, critics point
out, the figures, low as they are,
have been padded to the hilt.
Another side of the joke is that
the booklet shows that the New
Deal has given out close to 100000
government jobs. and Negroes
have gotten only about lao, and
low-paying jobs at that.
Another item is that which show
that several housing projects have
been built for Negroes, when the
truth of the matter is that just
one or two small ones have been
completed and that they are of
low workmanship and standard as
compared with those provided to
other groups.
The propaganda booklet, natur-
ally enough, avoids mention of the
irregularities the New Deal has
perpetrated on the Negro, but its
figures show, better than words,
the little attention the New Deal
has actually paid the colored man.
In fact, the little literary gem just
goes on to mention "AIr. Roose-
velt't generosity" but in all its
pages there isn't single peg on
which one could possibly hang this
claim. Whatever That means, +"
the Republican colored leaders say,
needs more daylight and more
clarifying. We here in Washing
ton know the double-dealing of
the New Deal and any paid pro-
paganda is just going to get the
acid test"
