Washington, D. C. (NNPA) -
American Veterans Committee
leaders at George Washington
University were exonerated last
Wednesday by faculty commit
tee designated by President Cloyd
Heck Marvin to review charges
made against them that they were
doing the university "irreparable
HARM.
| The faculty committee report
i ed that the charges brought by
the student life committee of the
university which asked for the ex-
pulsion of the AVG leaders, were
without substance and that there
were no grounds for dismissal of
the accused men.
DR.. Marvin accepted the recon-
mendations of the faculty COM
nittee. These recommendations
implied that use of university
facilities would be denied the AVG
chapter at George Washington on
the ground that the veterans or
ganization| engages in political
activities.
There was no mention in the
faculty committees report of the
issue which gave rise to the char

discrimination in force at the
university's Lisner Auditorium.
Expulsion of Donald Rothen-
berg, %, student chairman of
AVG Chapter 431, had been rec
commended by a special committee
after he had been accused of mis-
using the name of the university.
Later, the reviewing committee
accorded Rothengerg a hearing
and reported to the administration
that evidence presented by the
student-faculty committee did not
contain sufficient substantiation
against any student or students
to warrant further action"
Rothenberg had charged earlier
that the recommendation of the
Systematically committee for his
expulsion was an outgrowth Of
AVG agitation for dropping the
color bar at the Lisner Auditor
ium.

When Christ appeared with
those marvellous breaths of the
Holy Spirit, the children of Is
rael said, 1--WE are quite independ-
ent Of Him; we can do without
Him and follow Moses; we have
book and in it are found the
teachings of God; what need
therefore have we of this manw
Christ said to them, "The book
sufficeth you not" It is posi-
BILE for a man to hold to a book
of medicine and say, ''I have no
need of a doctor; I will act &C
cording to the book; in it every
disease is named, all symptoms
are explained, the diagnosis of
each ailment is completely writ
ten out and a prescription for each
malady is furnished; therefore
why do l need a doctor?' This
is sheer ignorance. A physician
is needed to prescribe. Through
his skill, the principles of the
book are correctly and effectively
applied until the patient is re-
stored to health. Christ was
heavenly physician. He brought
spiritual health and healing into
the world. Baha'u'llah is like
wise divine physician. He has
revealed prescriptions for remov-
ing disease from the body-politic
and has remedied human condi-
tons by spiritual power.
To gain control over physical
bodies is an extremely easy mat
ter, but to bring spirits within
the bonds of serenity is a most
arduous undertaking. This is not
the work of everybody. 1t neces-
states Divine and holy potency,
the potency of inspiration, the
power of the Holy Spirit. In this
century of the latter ines" Ba-
ha'u'llah has appeared and so re-
suscitated spirits that they have
manifested powers more than hui
man.

Train Tricks of the Trade i.

Train Tricks of the Trade |. It isn't nice to disclose tricks of the trade, but often there are sub- terfuges in motion picture-making that make for greater reality than the real thing In David O. Selz- hicks Duel in the Sun," a tre- .mendous train-wreck is one of the highlights. Gregory Peck, bad character in the film, removes some ties from a railroad spur so that the oncoming train will be de- ratled. The camera crew experi- mented with miniature trains, wrecking one after another, but they didn't seem to get an authen- tic looking crash. The problem seemed to have no solution. Ac- cording to the script, the camera was to be placed in the middle of the track in the path of the on- rushing locomotive. Finally, one of the technicians came to the rescue with the following idea: A large mirror was placed across the rails so that the onruShing train was reflected in the looking glass. The camera shot into the mirror and when it became time for the train to derail the mirror was tipped by concealed workmen which gae the effect of the train suddenly swerving off the rails. Then the film was cut to the ac- tual wreckage and everyone, in- cluding MT. Selznick, was exceed ingly happy. Tricks of the trade, yes, but awfulIy good tricks!

The committee on Banking and Currency in the House has turned out twenty-one bills of importance this session, and has got every one of them through the House, so you can see that 1t is committee which works. The chairman was very anxious to have the Housing bill reported out. Free discussion and full hearings are without ques- tion necessary, but when rules pro- viding for such are misused as they have been by these Republi- can members, the result is very bad.
 As you may have seen in the pa- pers, I worked very hard for and did obtain some night hearings, but even that was not adequate to take care of the situation.
 It seems to me that this housing action must be an important cam paign issue. There is no question in my mind with the discipline shown on the Republican side that the leadership could have prevent ed such action on the part of cer- tain members of the House Bank ing and Currency Committee and I think that the blame for the fail- ure to pass this bill should be laid Squarely on their shoulders.
 As I have said repeatedly on the floor, in the press and on the ra- diO, what we need and must have is low rental housing for Veterans. Many of them are certainly not in a position at this time to buy and many of them should not take on the obligations of purchasing a home as they are in a transition period and cannot be certain in many cases as to whether or not they will stay in a particular community.
 You can be certain that next ses- sion l shall exert every effort as a member of the House Banking and Currency Committee to see that housing legislation is brought up very early. Also, if the President should call Congress back into special session there are a number of us In the House Banking and Currency Committee who intend to call this bill up and insist on hear ings and action on the floor.
 have sent you this long ex- planation as I do not think that the country has been sufficiently informed on the real, very deplor- able reason for the failure of the bill to pass this session.

Cigars

Whatever my be the fate of the OPA, smokers are going to pay more for cigars-especially medi- um-priced brands.
 Before it expired, the OPA had prepared an order which would have exempted cigars from price control this month, and manufac- turers are counting on it being is- sued if OPA is resurrected. If not, they can let consciepce be their guide.
 An organization of manufactur- CTS declares that brands selling for cents and under will be diScon- tinued and that the lowest-priced cigars will sell for about 9 cents each.

Whenever possible, precede your shampoo with hot olive oil treat ment. Pomades are wonderful for dry hair and should be used n place of lacquer. Lacquer always should be used Sparingly as it causes dandruff and destroys the natural hair sheen.

Make survey to discover which star you resemble, and analyze what makes her lovely. Her tricks can easily be yours. But remember, on the job we must keep 1t smooth.

River Boat Service
 Established Between N. London and Norwich

With the initial run of the UTIL- TIE that showed off from the Norwich public landing at g a. m, Monday, August 18th, the Rose of New England established for the first time in years a regular six trips a day boat service to New London, down the Thames.
 The UTILITIE with a passenger capacity of 50 will ply back and forth between the two cities all day, making it's last trip out of Norwich at 12 midnight.
 In the days of slower travel and smaller cargo vessels Norwich had a busy little seagoing trade with cargo ships sailing daily for New York, carrying both cargo and pas- sengers. Her Route was down the Thames and out into Long Island Sound, making an all night jour- ney to New York. This used to be a popular mode of travel in our district and 1t is hoped that it is only the beginning of a gradual development and streamlining of both New London and Norwich's harbor facilities.
