II urge this restoration in the

declared. "I am convinced, as
businessman as well as Secretary Of
Commerce, that an appropriation

the House would compel abandon
ment or drastic curtailment Of
services vital to business, labor,
agriculture and to Federal, State

Mr. Hartman said the House cuts
would constitute an especially
severe blow to small business, which

Clearance for Child Reported.
A. man in high position who was
close to Macy and his family said
that Interior Minister Laszlo Rajk,
a Communist, objected to permit
ting the former Premier's 4-year-old
son, Laci Macy, to leave the country.
This man said that the Hungar-
ian Communists wished to hold the
child as a political hostage to pre-
vent his father from doing anything

despite this the Russians had al
ready granted clearance for Laci

Attempting Discrimination

an League members and friends
were demanding to know the names
of the restaurants involved We
could not give the names at that
time. They had not been verified.
However, Mrs Brice. in conference
with our executive secretary, posi-
lively identified the restaurants as
Hilaire's and the Oyster Loaf. Mr..
Hilaire denied that the incident
occurred in his restaurant. How
ever, he stated that his policy does
exclude Negroes. He indicated that
he had once attempted to serve Ne
groes, but his white customers OBJ
jected, and few whites commended
him for his efforts. There is an
object lesson here for all who are
in the fight for decent human re-
lations. We should voice our APP
procal of evidences of good prac-
tees. Our comment on the positive
side will negate the ranting of the
bigot, and the bigot always talks.
We are happy that the interest In
the treatment of Mrs. Brice was so
great. However, hundreds of the
darker brothers who are not celebri-
ties suffer the same humiliations In
Portland every day. These little
people have civil rights, too. Not
ing the privileges accorded Negro
dignitaries but denied Negroes

marked. I'VE have achieved the
right to have our heroes and geni-
uses, but not our ordinary citizens"
