THE e OF DARK
PEOPLES


Thus far in the effort to defend
dark peoples has met with failure.
China has defended herself, and if
India is to be defended, Indians
must defend her, just as China has
done and Just as Russia has done for
herself and as Dark Turkey must
do for herself and Dark Africa must
do for herself. There must be no
illusions about it.
A supreme effort will be made to
defend Australia, the land of the
whites from down UNDER.
In the discussion of this whole
question, however, it must be re-
membered that dark people did not
set the world on fire. This was
done by the so-called pure ARYANS
of Germany. In the long ago Dark
leaders did the same thing, and they
died In the tented field. And the
same fate will be met by all the Hit.

GLENN BEALL ANNOUNCES
CANDIDACY FOR CONGRESS
Native of Frostburg Seeks
G. o. P. Nomination for Repre-
sentative from Sixth District

J. Glenn Beall, Frostburg and
Cumberland business man, on Tues
day formally announced his candidacy
for the Republican nomination for
Sixth District United States repre-
sentative He is former state senator
and a former member and chairman
of the State Roads Commission.
"There can be no quibbling," Beall
stated, that winning the war against
the aggressor dictators, without stint,
without regard for partisanship and
without waste Of time and means on
social experiments must have the first
thought and effort of every American.
But other important things demand
the serious attention of our national
legislators.
"They must work for the preserva-
ton of the rights, privileges and obi
cations given by our constitution to
the three co-ordinated branches of
government and oppose pusillanimous
surrender of any to another.
"They should work for the preser-
walton Of the system of free enter
prise as a fundamental of the Amer
lean way of life in opposition to col
lectivist theories and schemes"
Engaged as a realtor and insurance
man in both Cumberland and Frost
burg, maintaining offices in both
cities, Beall is a native of Frostburg,
representing the seventh generation
of a well-known Maryland family. He
is a descendant of Jonathan Hager,
who founded Hagerstown.
After attending Gettysburg college,
Beall entered upon business career,
which he has pursued for twenty-three
years, during which time he has been
active in various county and civic af-
fairs.
When World War l broke out.
Beall entered the military service,
being assigned to the ordnance de-
partment and when hostilities ceased
he was honorably discharged with the
rank Of sergeant.
From 1928 to 1880, Beall served as
member of the Allegany County
Road Board, being its chairman the
last three years of that tenure. From
1880 to 1884 he represented Allegany
CC1Otv &c state senator in tho Cen
eral Assembly, and in 1938-1939 he
was a member and then chairman of
the State Roads Commission, in which
he made an excellent record. During
that period, he says, more roads were
constructed in Maryland than at any
other comparable time in its history"
Beall has been a student of taxa
ton and has also centered his atten-
ton upon road construction and adj
ministrative problems.
