cold abroad-present q challenge
to the American people.
We could choose the course Of
inaction. We could wait until de-
preston caught up with us, until
our living standards sank, and our
people tramped the streets looking
for jobs. Other democratic nations
would lose hope, and become easy
victims of totalitarian aggression.
That would be the course of de-
featism and cowardice.
Our other course is to take timely
and fortnight action. If we do
this, we can halt the spiral of in
flation at home, relieve hunger and
cold abroad and help our friendly
neighbors become self-governing
once again.
I know that 1t is the heartfelt
wish of the American people that
action be taken which will over
come the obstacles to peace and
prosperity confronting this Nation.
It is within our power to lead the
world to peace and plenty.
With resolution and united effort
we shall achieve our goal.

ments found in the chancellory at

Clark Authorizes Visas
For Two French Reds
By the Associoted Press

PARIS, Oct. 25.-An American
Embassy spokesman disclosed today
that Attorney General Clark had
authorized the embassy to issue tenn
porary visas to Henri Raynaud and
Pierre Lebrun, Communist secreta-
ries of the French General Confed-
Grafton of Labor (CGT.
I'VE received the permission last
night, and they can get their visas
any time they come in and ask for
them," said the spokesman.
The two CGT officials were invited
to meet in Washington with Con-
gres of Industrial Organizations
(CIO) representatives. Under United
States law, the embassy spokesman
explained, a Communist is automat-
ically denied a visa, but the Attor-
ney General can make exceptions.

In hospital-less community.
But Ellsworth Is not deficient in
fraternalism. Indeed. 1t Is remark
able to see how the Golden Rule is
practiced here.
All day yesterday, the homeless of
Mount Desert Island lounged on the
courthouse lawn, stood on the steps
and sat in the gymnasium that
paradoxically is a part of this build
ing.
The two floors of the courthouse
were theirs, and the people OF Ellis
worth were there to serve them
from City Manager Charles Haynes
down through the Boy Scouts.
Mr.. Haynes hasn't been to bed
for a couple of nights, but that's
a record lot of these New Eng
land hosts have.
Painstakingly. they are register
ing the homeless, feeding them,
sending them to houses where they
may seek to blot out with sleep
the fears of where their next homes
will be.
Nurse Arrives and Serves.
There's a first-aid room. One
|of the attendants there Is Miss
Betty Suminsby, once of Bar Har.
bor and now a nurse at the Vet
erans' Hospital in Newington, Conn.
Miss Suminsby rushed to the area
to learn about the fate Of her rela-
tives, missing nights sleep. But
yesterday she volunteed for first
aid duty.
Her brother, John suminsby "
also hurried back from his job at
Lynn, Mass. Within an hour after
his arrival, he was fighting fire ON
the island.
Ellsworth's good neighbor policy
left nothing to chance. The town
closed it's liquor stores and beer
places. It's movie was not operating
last night, but during the day 1t ran
special show to keep the kiddies
amused. 1t has turned the Masonic
hall, high school and two churches
over to the islanders as sleeping
quarters. Twenty-Five mothers and
babies are given special attention.
Bangor, too, held out welcoming
hand, with civic associations volun-
teering more than was needed.
1t reminded old-timers of the Ellis
worth fire in 1888 that destroyed
many homes and half Of the busi-
ness district. Bangor and the island
folks were mighty kind then.
And for those who could 60 back
a bit farther, 1t recalled the Bangor
fire of l911-when this cycle Of gen.
erosity began.

Bunch Hopping around like a rub
ber ball in his cell" during at least
three convulsions. He said the first
occurred about pm, and for sew
eral hours he shouted for help with
out obtaining response from police
at the precinct.
Investigators said today Regan
has now returned to his original
version that he heard nothing un-
usual in the cell block until 6 or
7 pm, at about the time friend
OF Mr.. Bunch and police came to
the cell and talked about taking the
man to the hospital. When inter-
viewed by detectives few days after
Mr.. Bunch died at Gallinger of a
fractured skull, Regan said he heard
the man in the adjoining cell have
fit" or "convulsion," but did not
mention three such occurrences.
In his last versions, detectives
said, Regan says he did call for aid
but could not be certain the police
in the precinct heard him.
The District Commissioners this
week requested United States At
torney George Morris Fay to pre-
sent the Bunch case to the grand
jury If his investigation warrants
such action.
1t was believed, however, that
decision on whether the case should
go to the grand jury will not be
made until after the Civil Rights
Division of the Justice Department
completes its inquiry into the case,
expected some time next week.
A coroner's jury on August IA
found that Mr.. Bunch died as the
result of fractured skull sustained
in an accidental fall. He was found
lying semi-conscious on the side
walk in the 1900 block of F street
NE. early on the morning Of July
20. He had been drinking with
friends on the previous afternoon
and night.
Police arrested him for intoxica-
ton and took him to Gallinger Hos
pital about o'clock that morning,
where a physician diagnosed his
case as alcoholism and returned him
to police custody.
Mr.. Bunch again was taken to the
hospital II hours later and this time
an examining physician admitted
him because he was In a stuporous
condition and had fever Of unde-
termined origin" The elderly man
died six days later of a fractured
skull after an emergency operation
had been performed for brain hem
orrhages.
