Mrs. Roosevelt Fights Fear
Los Angeles

Los Angeles - In a public statement in the Los Angeles Times Mrs. Roosevelt was very positive in her objections to le- gally outlawing Communism in America. She summarized her point of view in the following statement:
 "Outlawing of the Communist Party would be suppression and suppression has never accom- plished anything in a true de- mocracy. Suppression merely reflects a fear in the strength of our own beliefs. Our people can best fight communism by making democracy work.
 q do not think that Commu- nists advocate the overthrow of the government by violence, but seek to wreck democracy by undermining. This can only be done if our democracy Is weak.

SOUTHERN METHODISM TABOOS LEADERSHIP OF COLOR

The March edition of the Southern Methodist Layman was quite provoked over the fact that Dr. David D. Jones, President of Bennett College had been elected as the head of the National Association of Schools and Colleges of the Methodist Church.
 These adverse reactions ap- peared under the heading, Negro at the Helm of Meth odist Schools The sum and substance of the article was to indicate that they felt it was a mistake to place a Negro in a position of leadership on a local, national or International level, where mixed white and Negro groups were concerned.
 One southern white metho- dist was so enraged that she wrote a letter of protest in which she said, "This clipping shows some of the fruits of a Goddess church as the Metho- dist Church. The remaining Christian people in this church should certainly awaken from their Rip Van Wrinkle sleep before it is too late.'

SENATE OVERULES PRESS JIM CROW
 Atlanta World Covers Senate

Admittance of Louis Lautier, correspondent of the Atlanta Daily World and the National Negro Press Association, to the Senate press gallery was hailed today by Walter White, execu- tive secertary of the NAACP, as "A fortnight action of nationwide significance
 In a telegram to Senator c. Wayland Brooks, chairman of the Senate Rules Committee, which overrode the standing committee of correspondents governing the Capital press gal leries, subject to Congressional rules, and ordered the admission of Lautier, White stated.
 "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People warmly congratulates you and Senate Rules Commit tee on directly standing con- mittee of correspondents to ad- init to the Senate press gallery Louis Lautier. Fortnight ac- tion to enforce principles of democracy in Senate press gal lery of nationwide signifi- cance.''
 The National Board of Direc- tors of the NAACP had pre- viously strongly protested the barring of Lautier from the press gallery in telegrams to each member of the Senate Rules Committee. The tele- grams stated the belief of the NAACP that Lautier had been barred solely on tn basis of race. Senator Brien Mc.Mahon telegraphed: "Reurtel appre- ciate having your views on Lau- tier case prior to hearing. Am studying case"

Fewer Favorite Sons
Favored by 1obey
To Bolster Party
By the Associated Press

Senator Tobey, Republican, OF
New Hampshire called today for
"fewer favorite sons" in the Re-
publican organization.
At the same time, however. he de-
MED he is kicking over party traces
with any intent to upset Republican
control of the Senate.
The New Hampshire Senator-vo-
cal defender of an unsuccessful
Democratic battle last week to halt
continuation of the War Investi-
eating and Small Business Commit
tees-told a reporter he is going
along with the Republicans when he
thinks they are right-but not al
other times.
Senator Tobey was one Of four
Republicans who voted against the
two committees.
"I'ye been Republican for nearly
As years." he said. I'm no bolter
But I'm jealous of my party. I want
it to be as clean as whistle. !
want it to deserve the commenda-
ton of the country for its forth
rightness."
In this connection, Senator Tobey
said he thinks there are "too many
favorite sons" in the present COP
Senate organization.
He repeated charges he made on
the floor last week that the two
special committees had been set up
primarily to give chairmanships to
Senator Brewster, Republican, of
Maine, on the War Investigating
group and Senator Wherry, of Ne
braska, on the Small Business Com
mlttee. Both of the latter denied
this.
Siding with the Democrats who
claimed the Republicans were chisel-
ing away at the Congressional Re-
organization Act by setting up spe-
cial committees, Senator Tobey told
his colleagues during debate that
COP leaders had been running the
train off the tracks" and were de-
manding that party members be-
come Eyes men"
He named Senators Taft of Ohio,
Vandenberg of Michigan, and White
of Maine as the leaders involved.
None of these gave any indication
they expect to strike back, and few
Senators thought any action would
materialize from cloakroom talk of
stripping Senator Tobey of his COM
mittee assignments. The New Hamp-
shire Senator heads the Banking
Committee and is the second-rank-
ing Republican on the commerce
group.
Democrats, meanwhile, prepared
to put themselves in a position to
