Attorney Hits Decision
On Realty Covenants
As Purely Political

The Supreme Courts ruling against
court enforcement of racial restric-
tive property covenants was at
tackled last night by Henry Gilligan,
one of the procovenant attorneys,
as a purely political decision"
He told the North Capital Citizens
Association that the decision set up
"a right without a remedy"
Chief Justice Vinson. who spoke
for the court, evidently changed his
views" Mr.. Gilligan asserted. while
a member of the United States
Court of Appeals he concurred in
the opinion of Chief Justice Groner,
stating covenants are valid and en-
forceable in equity by way of in
junction.
Citizens Urged to Be Patient.
Mr.. Gilligan, with James A..
Crooks, represented white property
owners OF houses on Bryant street
NV, in their effort to have COW
enants upheld by the Supreme Court.
Urging citizens association men,
bers mot to get excited and sell
out" he declared:
The vast majority of fine Negroes
have no desire to inf1ltrate into
white communities. The danger will
come from the unscrupulous real
estate spectators"
Referring to groups which Joined
in the fight against covenants, Mr.
Gilligan said:
professional social action and
civil rights propagandists have
hailed the recent decisions with
jubilation. But I venture to pre-
dict that not one in thousand
would practice what he preached
Saw No Need for Review.
Mr.. Gilligan said today he did
not ask for a Supreme Court review
OF the decision because the unani-
nous decision indicated the courts
mind was made up on the issue"
The time limit for seeking a review
expired last week.
John F. Hardy, president of the
association, also asked the citizens
to not to sell their property.
Let us demonstrate to the peo-
pie Of the District and the country
that we are big enough in our per-
sonalities and wise enough in our
judgments to find a solution Mr.
Hardy said.
The meeting conducted by Mr.
Hardy was held in the Atonement
Lutheran Church, North Capitol and
u streets.

Treasury May Return
To Deficit Financing,
Snyder Tells Bankers
BY the Associated Prsss

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., May as
The National debt OF $252 900 900 ,OOC
may be increased during the iscal
year starting July I, Secretary OF
the Treasury Snyder said yesterday
Mr.. Snyder said that not only will
debt reduction probably" come to
an end, but that a return to deficit
financing by the Government is a
definite possibility"
The Treasury head expressed his
views at a news conference and in
an address to the 28th annual con-
ference of the National Association
of Mutual Savings Banks.
Notes Income Tax Cut.
The recent reduction in personal
income taxes, plus the demands of
the European recovery and domestic
rearmament programs, are the main
factors which could force the Gov
ernment to operate in the red once
again, Secretary Snyder said.
He indicated that at the moment
inf1ationary forces seemed to be
fairly we'll under control but added
The cumulative effect-if any
of the cut in income taxes, ERP
and domestic rearmament will not
be apparent until late fall"
The Secretary held out the hope
that even if debt reduction comes
to a malt in the year ahead, the
Government may still be able to
reduce further the volume of mar
ketable debt.
Forecasts $4,000, ,O00, 900 Increase.
only a portion of the s252,000-
000,0 900 Of Government Indebtedness
is in the form of marketable obli-
cations" he told the bankers. THE
remainder is in the form Of savings
bonds, savings notes, special issues
to Government trust funds and
other nonmarketable obligations.
This nonmarketable part of the
debt may go up by something like
$4,000, 900 900 during the year ahead
thus permitting a reduction in the
total of the marketable debt.
This is due primarily to the in
tensity with which we are pressing
and will continue to press-our
savings bond campaign"
The Treasury, he continued, Is
watching the money market on a
day-to-day basis.
I'VE will consider raising the rate
on United States certificates of in
debtedness when and if the time
comes" he added.

Support Received For Alaska's
 Health Program

BCG vaccination for Alaska, ambulatory treatment of syphilis, enlarged programs of nutrition and child health, and the assur- ance of continued financial sup port for disqualification of crip- pied children are few of the pro- jects to be developed further as a result of a recent trip to the States by Dr. C.. Earl Albrecht, Terri torial commissioner of health.
 Although the principal reason for his trip was attendance at the annual meeting of States and Ter ritorial health offices, the com missioner was able to attend many conferences and meetings in which aid for Alaska's health was among the chief topics of disciSSion.
 Not the least of these was the conference on the Alaska pro- gram. An inter-departmental com mittee has been formed recently which will develop a program for the Territory. Doctor Albrecht at tended meetings of the sub-com- mittees on health, welfare, and education, as well as the sub-com- mittee on housing. The recom- mendations of this committee should have great weight in ob- taining additional funds and per sonnel for an enlarged health pro- gram.
 Plans were, discussed with Dr Ralph Snavely, medical director of the office of Indian affairs, and with officials of the U. s. Public

Instead, his tax payment is ear marked: government expense" Some people oppose tax reductions for corporations and individuals, without realizing that continued heavy taxes will undermine our economic system, and their own standard of living.
 Decisions Lie Ahead
 Obviously, one of the quickest ways to halt Wasteful and unprof- itable bureaucracy is to stop feed ing fuel to it's fires. Government, without plentiful supply of tax money, could hardly be wasteful government. Congress has the power to say what the govern ment shall spend and w h amount it shall collect in taxes. It is up to us to see that our Con- gress keeps proper rein on col lections and expenditures.
 Unwise spending and taxing could take this nation into the bankruptcy of Communism, It could do it more quickly than any thing else. Indeed the power to tax is the power to destroy. We must see to it that America keeps
 an efficient and well-managed government, not a wasteful bu- reaucracy. That will be a power full factor in deciding, in the com ing months, whether America will remain prosperous and economic ally stable.

health service by which Alaska will now have BCG vaccine avail able for vaccination against tuber- culosis.
 Additional funds have been made available so that patients with syphilis who found it diff cult to be hospitalized can now receive treatment on an ambula- tory basis.
 Dr. Albrecht found keen inter est aroused in the nutrition prob lems of Alaska when he talked with the officials of the Nutrition Foundation of New York City, the United States public health serv- ice, and the United States chil- dren'S bureau. Preliminary plans were discussed with these agen- cieS to continue more far-reaching studies in the future. The first project will be the analyses of Alaskan foods to determine their nutritional value. The commits sioner advocated that this re- search project be set up at the University of Alaska.
 One of the problems that occu- pied much of Dr. Albrecht's time was rousing interest and support for obtaining funds to hospitalize at Seward sanatorium patients that were beneficiaries of the Alaska Native Service
 , Delegate Bartlett in the House of Representatives amended the European relief bill to appropriate Sl76,0O0 for the disqualification of the tuberculous patients. 1 Very far-reaching recommenda- tions were made by the State and Territorial Health Officers Asso- citation, three of which affect Alas ka beneficially:
 1. It was recommended that the procedure be reviewed of allotting grant-in- aid funds on the basis of population. The present procedure penalizeS small states and terri tories.
 2. It was recommended that the hospital survey and construction act should be amended by Con- gress so that the minimum allot- ment to every state and territory regardless of size and population would be S250,O00. This is of great 1 importance to Alaska since it's al- lotment up to present is SAL ,000 per year. Delegate Bartlett has all ready introduced bill into Con- gress to amend that act. B. A special resolution recogniz- ing Alaska's health problems was passed
 pr. Albrecht is enthusiastic about the progress being made towards the solution of Alaska's health problems. ''The interest and support reused in Washington towards our public health difficult ties," states Dr. Albrecht, land the increasing awareness of the stra- tegic position Alaska holds as a line of defense cannot fail to ob- tain for us the necessary finances and personnel to enlarge our pres ent programs in the department. l feel that great benefit will be de- rived from the Alaska program"
