What theRussions

The Mosco,D radio, broddcdSting il
Polish to Europe, said:
From the first day of its ex-
istence the U. S. S. r. has been
in the vanguard of the struggle
for peace. This has provoked the
wrath of capitalist countries. The
imperialists in the West and East
used every means to disturb
peaceful building up Of the So
Wet state.
when Nazi Germany invaded
the Soviet Union the hopes of
the Anglo-French and United
States reactionaries seeking to
weaken the U. S. s. r. were
bright. They hoped to kill two
birds with one stone-to knock
out Germany, the imperialist
rival, and at the same time to
change the first Socialist state
into a weak second-rate power.
Some United States leaders
thought that the Soviet Union
after the war would be faced
with starvation and would be
. obliged to bow low to the over
seas monopolists, but these hopes
have turned to nought."

Head Of s.. EIizabeths
Warns Il Can't Handle
All Mental Patients
Proposes Facilities
At GoIIineer Hospital
For Certain Cases
By Miriom Gutenberg

Superintendent Winfred Over
holser of St. Elizabeths Hospital
declared last night that District
authorities cannot escape their
responsibility" to provide ade-
quate psychiatric services at
Gallinger Hospital by sending all
mental cases to st. ElizabethS.
His comment followed sugges-
ton made to the Commissioners
Friday by Chairman Miller of the
House District subcommittee on
health, education and recreation
that they give serious thought" to
transferring all cases to st. Eliza
beths unless needed Improvements
can be made in Gallinger's much
criticized psychopathic division.
Earlier, Commissioner Guy Mason
proposed closing the psychopathic
division entirely.
Opposes Closing Of Division.
DR.. Overholser said fatty that St.
Elizabeths does not have the facili-
ties to take care Of the entire case
load of the psychopathic division,
which is expected to run between
5000 and 5000 a year.
Further, he opposed closing the
psychopathic division. Such move,
he said, would be a decided step
backward" in care of patients.
st. Elizabeths, he said could take
care of substantial proportion of
the patients, now being sent to Gal
linger, but he added that he regarded
that only as temporary exped-
lent" except for those requiring long
term disqualification.
II certainly don't look on our TAX
ing over a substantial portion OF
Galhnger's function as a solution OF
the problem except temporarily I'M
til adequate facilities can be pro-
vided at Gallinger," he said.
Two Groups of Patients.
If the commitment laws are
amended, he said, they should make
it possible for patients to 60 direct
to st. Elizabeths without defining
too closely which patients should
be sent there and which to Gal
| linger. He divided patients into
these two general groups:
First, those suffering from anne
sia, some who attempt suicide, those
picked up by police in confused or
stuporous condition and alcoholics
| These, he said, are suffering from
acute conditions from which they
usually recover quickly. He believes
these cases should be cared for at
Gallinger.
Second, those who have been
tending toward mental illness for
some time, whose family physicians
have recommended commitment
and who ordinarily need consider
able period of treatment. He be-
lieves these cases should always go
direct to st. Elizabeths. At present,
the law requires them to go first
to Gallinger.
DR.. Oerholser pointed out that

LOGANVILLE, Ga, Nov. 29.-The
torch has been put within the month
to the two Negro churches and one
school in this small community OF
Walton County where four Negroes
were lynched last year.
Mayor c. H. Byrd said today
there was no doubt that the flres
were of incendiary origin and added
that the City Council had offered
a $100 reward for the arrest and
conviction of those responsible.
The Mayor, however, said he did
not believe that white persons, or
racism, was responsible.
He said it was his belief that there
was a feud between sections Of the
Negro populace which resulted in
the fires, or that possibly the
Negroes were attempting to attract
Nationwide sympathy" by firing
their own churches and schools.

A city-wide suffrage rally in

changes in the elected council

representing organizations with an
estimated membership of 100000,
scheduled a "kick-eff" meeting for
8 pm. December 8, at the Interior
Department Auditorium.
This rally, officers of the confer
ence said. would launch campaign
for enactment of the Auchincloss
plan which recently was Endorsed
unanimously by trustees of the suf-
frage group. The trustees are urg-
ing members of the affiliated groups
not to permit minor differences over
details of the plan to obscure the
main objectives.
DR.. Galloway Will Speak.
Principal speaker will be DR.
George B. Galloway, staff director
of the Auchincloss subcommittee OF
the House District Committee, who
is on loan rom the Library of Con-
gress Reference Service.
Wilbur Finch, suffrage confer
ence president, urged the public to
attend the rally. He said there
would be a full discussion open to
both proponents and opponents OF
the plan.
The Home Rule subcommittee,
headed by Representative Auchin-
Gloss, Republican, of New Jersey, Is
meeting twice week to review old
and new questions about its plan.
With % issues yet to be reviewed,
it anticipates others may arise before
hearings are scheduled early in the
January session of Congress.
One of those now up for considera-
ton is whether a literacy test should
be invoked for qualification of per-
sons voting in the proposed election
of a city council and a Board OF
Public Education.
This is one of the number OF
questions raised by Richard S
Childs, of New York City, often
referred to as the father of the city
manager plan" of municipal govern
ment.
Members of the Auchincloss SUBJ
committee have been advised that
the literacy test is working well In
some cities, notably New York
There, the test given by public
school teachers, amounts to read
ing and understanding of simple
questions regarding the Constitution
A literacy test was suggested ir
earlier studies of suffrage here
but did not win wide support. Il
was considered in the origina
Auchincloss plan but omitted.
Other questions scheduled for at
tention include the following:
/. Whether the proportional rep.
resentation system should be en-
bodied in the election of the pro.
posed council of II members, al
means of assuring some represen.
tation of minority groups. 1t Il
