According to the conservative
Associated Press, there are now
more registered lobbyists" circu-
lating through the corridors of the
Capitol than there are members of
the House and Senate. This, does
not take into account the lobbyists
who are not registered and who
are probably the most dangerous
of all.

AElitorY Heods
Deny RuHnors Of
NEGRO Document

WASHINGTON, D. c. (NNPA)
"A widely publicized report that
President Truman and his Cabinet
were studying an amazing conf
Dental" document concerning the
Status of the Negro" in the next
war could not be verified here last
Friday.
The only reports primarily con-
cerning the status Of colored people
are the report of the Presidents
Committee on Civil Rights and the
report Of the Gillem board on the
effective utilization Of colored man
power in the postwar army.
II there is any other report in
the hands Of any high government
officials, it amounts 70 no more
than an unofficial memorandum
and gives no more than the per-
sonal views Of the person or per-
sons who submitted Il.
The agencies which would be
concerned with the drafting Of such
q report deny its existence. From
an authoritative source, It was
learned that Secretary Of Defense
James v. Forrestal has neither or
dered nor received any such report,
nor does James C. Evans. civilian
aide to the Secretary Of War and
adviser 10 Mr.. Forrestal, have any
knowledge Of Il.
Ordinarily, in the Army depart
ment, the plans and policy group Of
the army general staff maintains
from one war To another plans for
mobilization.
Army strategists believe that II
there is another war in the next few
years, armed forces and the. nature
Of war viii be in general similar
initially to the closing phases Of
World War II.
In that case, the plan for the
utilization Of eolOred manpower laid
down in the report Of the Gillem
board--a board Of army officers
appointed by the Secretary of War
to study this subject-will be fol-
lowed.

COMMUNITY CHEST
DECLINES TO AID
CHARITIES GROUP

The Associated Charities will
have to struggle along during the
fiscal year, which began last July
l, on the $25, 900 appropriation
which the county commissioners
voted the organization.
That was revealed yesterday by
the refusal of the Community
Chest to Financially assist the
charities and a previous action of
the city council refusing to vote
any allotment.
A letter from the chest to the
charities was received yesterday
by Rev. William Grove, president.
1t stated that the. State Depart
ment of Public Welfare of North
Carolina nad ruieo that private
funds should not be solicited for
the agency.
The letter was written by H. A.
Marks, president of the Communi-
ty Chest.
The letter backed up a recent
proposal of the city council that
the Associated Charities be merg-
ed with the County Welfare de-
partment.
A year ago the chest declined
the charities funds but allowed it
$500 in order to meet recommen
dations of the state welfare de-
partment that had declared the
charities . county government
agency.

But the Damon Of the evening,
