McDOnOugh Could
Have Won
An Editorial
An Editorial

John McDonough lost the may
or's job in st. Paul by less than
500 votes. 1t appears John Nc
Donough could have won. He
could have been victorious by the
simple expedient of making a thor
ough campaign in the upper Rondo
and St. Anthony district, where
over 500 colored voters did not go
to the polls.
Mr.. McDonough and other can
didates must learn that Negro vot-
ers react only to the same stimulus
that other voters react to. A meet
ing or two with no house to house
work or precinct work will not get
out the vote in the Negro district
any more than it will in any other
district.
His campaign managers were
largely to blame because they haG
no idea how to capture the Negro
vote and they wouldn't let anyone
who did have, operate.
John McDonough could have wor
and the Negro vote could have
turned the trick.

Health Week
Gets Under Way
I'm st. Paul

Names of 1873 persons were list
ed as applicants for the Mantoux
test, medical method for detect
ing tuberculosis, as st. Paul began
laying the ground work for a sus-
tanned drive against the disease
during the observance of Health
Week, May 2 to IA.
Four pastors stressed the i'm
portance of the tests in sermons
on Sunday. The clergymen who
co-operated along this line were:
The Reverends Gerald Hayden, st.
James A. M. E. Church; Lee Har-
ris, Pilgrim Baptist Church; Mark
Gibson, Zion Presbyterian Church,
and Victor Holly, st. Philips P. E.
Church.
An analysis of the registrants by
Miss Margaret Turpin, registered
nurse who is helping direct activi-
ties, showed that women are lead
ing the men, 70 to 55.
Members of the Health Week
Committee, which is headed by DIR.
Charles Williams, saw significance
in the fact that the largest number
of persons in any age group listed
is SO, between the age of 20 and
29. tuberculosis takes it's great
est toll between the years of 1S
and 35, committee members said.
Neither age nor youth seemed
to be hindrance to registration
since the oldest person to come in
was 70 and the youngest was ten
months. Belief that young moth
ers are vitality interested in keep
ing a close check on the health of
their children was expressed by
Miss Turpin, who said that the
second largest group was 20, be-
tween the ages of and 9 years.
DR.. w. A. Dovorak will be the
speaker at the Halle @. Brown
House on May at 8 p. m. All
tests will also be given at the
House from 7:30 p. m. to $3.50 p. m.
The Ramsey County Public Health
Association at II Summit Avenue
is supplying materials.
Last Thursday DIR, M. o. BouS-
field, director of Negro Work for
the Rosenwald Foundation, was
the speaker. Among other things,
he pointed out that persons should
not rely on symptoms before they
suspected the presence of tubercu-
losis. Frequently, said he, the
symptoms appear when the disease
has such a hold on the victim that
cure is long and difficult.
