VIRGINIA MARKET POPULAR ENTERPRISE

There is an abundance of commercial propaganda in the United States that encourages the average individual to pat ronize their neighborhood stores. But rarely does one come across neighborhhod en- terprises that have striven to make their businesses a part of the best interests of the people. There are such instances though and the Virginia Market rates very high in this category.
 The proprietor, Samuel Sohn, is a successful business man who grew up in the general neighborhood where his spaci- ous market is now located. He has made himself a general part of the community by not only exercising a business interest but integrating himself into those things that are for the general welfare of the commun- ity.

MAINE HAS ITS EATERS TOO

Waterville, Maine - What ever reputation that Colby Col lege may have for it's liberal at titude is not to be construed as the general sentiment of the state of Maine or even of Wa terville.
 ] It seems that a Negro student accompanied a white college companion to a downtown hotel and entered the cocktail lounge. The white student was told that he could be served but his companion could not be. Both of the youngsters with drew from the hotel without creating any disturbance.
 Later the story was spread about the campus and over 300 students held a protest meet ing in the chapel. Dr. J. Seely Bixler spoke to the mass meet ing and advised them against taking any hasty action. The students accepted his advice and adjourned the meeting. What additional steps are to be taken was not revealed.

MAIN STREET BUS SKATERS CHILD'S XMAS

Last Friday was the last day of school for little Verdal Spen- cer of 39 Bellevue Square as the last day of her very short eleven years of life.
 The very first snow storm of the season brought tragedy and death in it's wake for her in- stead of the joy and happiness that children of such tender age usually experience in such happenings and especially be- fore Christmas.
 She attempted to cross Main Street just below Florence shortly after 8 o'clock while the snow was flying and the traffic flashing back and forth. She slipped and fell in the face of an oncoming Bus. It is alleged that the driver Augustine J. Allevo managed to miss the child s sliding body with the front wheels of the Bus but her body passed under the rear wheel.
 The child was rushed to the St. Francis Hospital but was pronounced dead upon arrival. The driver of the Bus is being held on the charge of criminal negligence.

Hartford chronicle., 1946-12-28

There are a surprising num- Der of individuals in the North End who are striving to make it a better community in which to live and whose knowledge and experience carries back in to the years. Some of these individuals first saw the light day in this section of Hartford and therefore have an abiding and not a transitory interest in what happens here. Some of them have spent long years of arduous study acquiring the ba- sic knowledge that would en- able them to more efficiently serve the people. Individuals who have earned the esteem and high regard of those in their field and could we'll have gone on to serve elsewhere.
 One such person was born over 40 years ago on Donald Street and attended St. Pat rick's school. From there he went on to St. Thomas Semin- ary in Rochester, N. Y. And at the conclusion of his work there was ordained Priest at St. Jo- seph's Cathedral in Hartford.
 For sixteen years Rev. John J. Loughlin taught at Saint Thomas Seminary, St. Joseph's College and Mount Saint Joseph Academy in West Hartford.
 In July 1914, he was appoint ed director of the newly formed Saint Benedict Center by the late Bishop Maurice F. McAu- life. The Center was estab- lished to provide religious and educational, social and recrea- tional facilities and to work for interracial justice and under standing. '"~"-

TEXT OF ALDERMAN FAULISO'S F.E.P.C. BILL
To The Court of Common Council of the City of Hartford

In lieu of State legislation, on this important subject every community should adopt an F.E.P.C. law. A true democra- cy must afford justice to all classes of society. A govern ment should exist for the com mon good and therefore should be concerned with the interests of all in general. Its functions is to promote the welfare of the people. No government, wheth- CT it be national, state or local, is serving the common good when it promotes the welfare of a majority of it's people, while minority groups are neglected.
 If real justice is to exist, a government must also be inter ested with minority groups. In this respect, it is it's duty to see that each and every citizen is provided with fair economic opportunities. It is the duty of a true democratic govern ment to assure it's citizens free dom and this cannot be enjoyed without the opportunity of earning a living. Without em- ployment an individual cannot enjoy freedom from fear, free dom from want, freedom to de- velop himself according to his personal pattern in life.
 When impediments and ob- stacles are present, when unfair and unjust practices exist, it becomes the solemn obligation of a Democratic Government, to step in, to end the suffering of a particular group or minor ity
 An F.E.P.C. ordinance is very essential because 1t reiterates and guarantees those freedoms inherent in a democracy.
 The proposed ordinance at tached herewith may require revision for it's validity. The purpose in presenting it in this form is to give the Court of Common Council something for its consideration at this time with the hope that it will ulti- pass a legal and effective F.E.P.C. law.

UNION SETTLEMENT
 CHILDREN BUILD RINK

Ice skating will be safe for East Side Children this winter when children of the Union Set clement of Hratford put the finishing touches on the rink built on their Market St. play ground.
 After last springs experience of turning the yard into a play ground, with the children and the staff building two paddle tennis courts, a volley ball court and installing four swings and several other games, the children suggested a rink for winter use. Since the yard was very uneven, MT. Nicholas c. Casciano of N. c. Casciano and Sons, General Contractors, gen erously donated the services of his bulldozer to level off the yard. The Street Department of the City of Hartford, thru it's Superintendent MT. Royal Thompson, consented to send it's grader to give the play ground the finishing touches. In the next week or so the children will complete the job by building banks around the edges to keep the water from running off.
 Last, but not least, of our kind friends was MT. James H. Dillon, Director of City Recrea- toin Department, who gave the staff some valuable material on how to build and maintain the rink.
 Among the many children who helped in this project were: Frank Cantone, Nick DeMarco, Silvio Corio, Louis Angeloni, Danny Petrella, Gary Castor, Peter Maio, Edward Williams.
 The Union Settlement Staff has written it's Board Members and many friends to send in ice skates that they are not using. Now the children i'm patiently wait for cold weather

ROTARY SPEAKER,
DESCRIBES PRINCIPLES
OF SALESMANSH|P ART

The art of craftsmanship was de-
scribed Tuesday at a meeting of
the Rotary club by Ronald Ries of
Billings, vice president and sales
manager of the Billings Implement
company and member of the Bill
ings Rotary club. He was introduc-
ed by Allen Gatewood, a program
committeeman.
Like recruiting officers of the
army, sales managers enlist e
cruits, Ries said. A screening then
takes place to select those best
fitted to do the work, for the en-
ploying concern has an investment
of $4,000 or more a year for each
salesman's travel expense and sal
airy. Some we'll experienced author
tiles consider 80 per cen work and
10 per cent intelligently directed
effort as necessary for a salesman's
measurable success.
A third step is to correct offend
ing manerisms, if any exist, and
equip the firms representative with
factual information on the goods he
sells and their worth to the buyer.
In an aside Ries said that the
deal must represent true value, else
it is not a sale but a swindle.
Selling technique involves right
approach, recital of a convincing
array of facts, and if the prospect
i've buyer actually needs the goods
on services offered the final action
is conclusion of the sale, or sign
ing on the dotted line.
The speaker went to some length
in describing the selection of sales
men, and compared present and
earlier methods. AS in the army,
which during the war was an ex-
tensive school and laboratory in as
certaining the working of the hu-
mind, the science of psychology
IS now extensively used. The effort
IS to prevent the unsuccessful plac-
ing of round pegs in square holes,
alike displeasing to the employer
and prospective salesman. Ries
quoted an authority who some years
ago said he believed the greatest
advances of the then unfolding fu7
-ure would be in the fields of ma
science and the human mind.
Ries said he believed the authori-
les prediction had been proved
correct in late years.
Going from the selling of goods
and services to the selling of ideas,
he speaker said that for both
goods and ideas it is necessary by
and persuading argument to
desire in the mind of the
When concluding his address, Ries
said he believed the greatest sales
man of all times was Jesus Christ
who "sold" an idea that has not
only survived but has grown i'm
measurably in nearly 1000 years.

Eerie Stiffness Prevades Laurel
Railroad Yards During 2-Day Strike

of the day and night hustle of
activity prevailing there constant
ly since the yards were built some
40 years ago, not a wheel turned;
cars stood as they had been left
when the strike began.
Breaking the profound silence, a
~trainload of soldiers pulled into the
yard late Thursday afternoon from
off the Burlington's Denver line
and passed on to Billings. Later
the empty passenger equipment
went west over the Great Northern.
First-class mail moved, but
the Laurel postoffice like others
throughout the nation refused sec
ond-class matter intended for out
side distribution. AS a result,
papers depending OF the mails for
delivery were delayed two or three
days before beginning their journey
to distant points.
The strike ended Saturday after
noon while President Harry Truman
was reading a message to congress,
asking for special legislation. A
note was handed him while he was
addressing the house and senate.
He hesitated a few seconds while
examining it and then read it aloud
over the radio. 1t said the strike
had been settled according to the
presidents terms.
A little later the workers were
notified by their union heads and
at once returned to their jobs. Be-
fore the night ended the familiar
whistle of locomotives was heard
and rail traffic was again moving.

To HALT ABUSES
IN SURPLUS PROPERTY
SALES TO VETERANS

Five leading veterans organiza-
lions have announced they will sup
port efforts of the war assets adj
ministration to wipe out abuses of
certification to buy surplus proper
ty. The announcement followed a
meeting of the veterans policy COM
mittee of the war assets administra-
ton, consisting of representatives
of the organizations, with WAA Of
ficials, and has been released for
Montana distribution by the Helena
regional office of WAA.
The veterans policy committee de-
clared a benefit which congress had
conferred upon veterans as a group
was being jeopardized by unscrup-
ulous persons who were perverting
the provisions of the surplus prop
erty act and the procedures of the
WAA to acquire goods which should
&C to veterans seeking legitimately
to avail themselves of their right
to purchase them.
Members of veterans organiza-
lions who are approached with pro-
posals for misuse of their certifi-
Gates to buy will be urged to re-
port such proposals to Joseph F.
Carroll, director, compliance en-
forcement division, WAA, Railroad
Retirement building, Washington, D..
c., it was announced.
The veterans group also will as
sist the WAA in combating viola
lions of the law in surplus disposal
which involves abuse of the priority
preference of any other group
under the surplus property act.
Carroll told the committee that
representatives of his division had
uncovered indications that a small
minority of veterans had acquired
surplus property for others after
certifying that the property was for
their own use. He pointed out that
such veterans laid themselves open
to prosecution for violation of the
U. S. criminal code and the sur
plus property act, which call for
severe penalties for obtaining gov
eminent property On false repre-
sensations.
