Southern
Catholic Leader
Says Racial
Injustice Food
For Communism
CARVER FELLiWS

Monroe, La, Dec. Attacking
racial injuctice as the food of
Communism, the Rev. Vincent J..
O'Connell, S. NJ, New Orleans,
told a mass meeting here tonight
that racial prejudice would have
to be wiped out eff we wish to
impress the world with the claim
that we are a Christian ntaion." :"
Speaking as general chairman
of the Catholic Committee of the
South Father O'Conenll outlined
the positive. answer to Commun-
ism at an interracial mass meet
ing arranged for citizens of all
faiths by the parish council of
st. Matthews Church.
Lets cut the Russian Bear

ic injustice he said.
Declaring that Americans should
learn what Communism really is,
the priest said: "The fight for CIV
il rights is not Communism; the
passing of social legislation is not
Communism. In fact, Joe Stain
fears those things much more
than he fears any Investigations
by un-American activities COM

A major step in defeating Com
munism is in sincerely trying to

TEN wherei nChristian' principles
will be put to work." he said.
Nobody has much difficulty
in accepting, in general, the COM
mandment to love thy neighbor as
lthyself. The rub is in answering
the question, Who is my neigh
bor?'
"But that question has been
answered in the Bible with the
story of the Good Samaritan. The
lSamaritan, a member of de-
lspised race in Israel, was the
good neighbor. People the world
lover must be able to recognize
us by the sign Jesus gave us when
He said, BY this shall all men
know that you are My disciples,
that you shall have love one for
another
Declaring that Atheistic Com
munism was conceived in the
denial of God and His eternal law"
the Cos chairman said that the
fundamental principles of Com
munish were these:
THAT all progress comes
from conflict and violence.
2-That there is no God.
3-That whatever helps spread
Communism is good that whatev-
er hinders Communism is evil.
4-That the triumph of world
Communism justifies any means
whatsoever used to bring it about.
"The problem of our economic
life at present is not production
but fair distribution of the fruits
of production. declared Father
O'Connel.
Teamwork between labor and
councils and similar representa-
tive bodies, is part of the positive
answer to Communism, the priest
said.

cationers who apparently couldnt
stand the Washington weather any
longer-then left town just as the
terrific heat wave broke. Mrs. Rad
ford went as far as New York by
plane and took a train to Pine
orchard. Conn, where she is the
guest this week of Washingtonians,
Mr.. and Mrs. John C. McClintock.
The Admiral, meantime, is having a

Becomes Bride

OF much interest in Washington
and Maryland was the wedding yes
terday afternoon of Miss Margaret
Robert Marshall, daughter of MI.
and Mrs. Robert Morris Marshall
of Laurel to Mr.. John De tawder
Davis of Silver Spring.
Picturesques Holy Trinity Church
at Collington, Prince Georges
County, was the scene of the 4
o'clock ceremony. The Rev. Robert
w. Lewis, rector of the edif1ce Of
ficated assisted by the Rev Reginald
Hall of st. Philips Church in
Laurel. Later guests went to- the
home of the brides parents for a
reception.
Escorted and given in marriage
by her father, the birdie made a
pretty picture as she walked to the
flower banked altar. Her lovely
gown of ivory brocaded satin was
worn with a fingertip veil held in
place by old family lace. She
carried white prayer book over
laid with white orchids.
Miss Elizabeth Hanna of Lancas-
ter, Pa, was the maid of honor and
the bridesmaids were the Misses
Betty Sue Clarke. Retta Roberts
Candy and Winifred Allen, all
cousins of the bride, and Jane Rich
mond, cousin of the groom. Old
fashioned bouquets of mixed flowers
carried by the attendants compile
mented their becoming dresses OF
taffeta and marquisette in pastel
colors.
Taking her share of attention was
little Eloise Nixon, daughter OF Mr.
and Mrs. William Nixon, who was
flower girl for her cousin. Her
dainty frock of blue organdy carried
out the pattern of the attendants.
1t. Robert N. Davis, Marine Corps,
was the best man and the ushers
included the Messrs. Robert Morris
Marshall, jr., brother of the bride
and Robert Bains, Darwin DreWyeI

Farewell Receptions
1t was hail and farewell at
the reception which members of the
staff of the Naval Medical Center
gave Friday at the Aarmy Navy
Country Club for their retiring
chief, Rear Admiral Thomas c.
Anderson, and his successor, Rear
Admiral Morton D. Willcutts. In the
receiving line with Admiral and
Mrs. Anderson and Admiral and
Mrs. WillcuttS were the Surgeon
General Of the Navy and Mrs. Cll1-
ford A. Swanson.
Admiral Anderson's new assign
ment with the Medical Section OF
the National Resources Board won't
take him away from Washington,
but he and Mrs. Anderson are CIV
ing up their quarters at the Medical
Center and moving to the house at
1884 South Meade street, Arlington,
which they have rented. They'll not
take possession, however, till the
first of September when they return
from a vacation at Beach Haven,
N. J. They're going there this week
to join their son-in-law and daugh-
ter, the John Wiekers, who have a
house for the summer.
Meanwhile Admiral and Mrs.
Willcutts and their four children
are awaiting quarters at the Medical
Center. Admiral Willcutts, who took
command of the center week or so
ago, formerly was with the Bureau
of Medicine and Surgery.
Farewells also were said during
the week to Capt. John M. Will,
retiring Director of Training in the
Bureau of Naval Personnel, who will
leave shortly to command a cruiser
at sea. Members of the staff Of the
tarining activity gave reception
for him Wednesday at the Army
Navy Country Club. Prominent
among those in the gathering were
the Chief of Naval Personnel and
Mrs. Thomas L. Sprague, the Deputy
Chief and Mrs. John w. Roper and
the Chief of Navy Chaplains and
Mrs. William N. Thomas.

Any single woman between the
ages of IS and SIS who doesn't like
Washington in the summer must
have been dropped on the head
when a mere infant. This is the
time when her date book can be
filed from cocktail time on, every
evening for weeks on end.
There are so many bachelors in
town-real or summer ones-who
are not being swamped with dinner
and dance invitations, that one
wonders why girls go North to sit
on beach and pine for gayety, all
the while casting furtive glances at
the lone lifeguard. They probably
wonder, too. when they get there.
There were boys abounding at the
Robert Portners cocktail gathering
tother afternoon-and it was an
ideal day for party, since 1t wasn't
good for tennis, swimming or any
of the exhausting outdoor life. AS
usual, when one samples Bob and
Leslie's brand of hospitality, they
stayed on and on past the scram-
bled-eggs hour until 2:3O In. the
morning.
Brinton Sherwood and "Chink"
Geerdes, two of the newer person.
able bachelors in town, were there.
Brinton, who seemed to be always
holding some woman's hand under
the old pretense of reading her
palm, came to town about month
ago after years south of the border.
And he's going. to stay. Tall, blond
"Chink," whose real name is Henry,
recently was in England, may be
footing off to foreign shores before
long, but in the meantime is shar-
ing Ugo Gautier's roof. The latter
who is back, in Washington, this
time as First Secretary of the Bra
lillian Embassy, was another OF the
available eligibles on hand.

by. He and his attractive blond
comtesse will leave on the 17th for
France, where the count, who's
been with the French Consulate
here, will be assigned to new post.

Now that Americans are winning

funny in the U. S. A., but group
of Americans in London were
bemoaning the fact that our Olym-
pic teams would undoubtedly sweep
through with one victory after an
other.
Britain's outlook is so grim, her
diet so lacking in the strength
building foods such as eggs, sugar
butter and meat-the average per-
sons share of meat is only 20 cents
worth a week-nor is she the only
country that shows the mark of the
past years-that Americans ovel
there simply can't cheer our rec
