bury, the police beating Of a
striking member Of the Packing
house Union, and the unsolved
attack on several Jewish youths
in Dorchester last week as 9TH
er indications that the police
officials must throw off the
force trigger-happy and club
happy officers who themselves
have no understanding of the
meaning of peaceful law en-

Bullock, in State service for "a

Attorney Generals office from
1925 to 1927 when he was appoint

BULLOCK OUT

by Gov. Saltonstall.
The new appointee is a former
member of the Governors Coun-
Gil. A native Of Lawrence, he
graduated from Harvard in 1918
and B. U. Law School in 1916.
With the retirement of Bullock
the State Parole Board now has
no colored member. And that
omission is causing concern and
chagrin among colored citizens
of the State. To them it means a
loss of representation in the State
governments loss that is keenly
felt because in many former adj
ministrations Governors have reg
ularly named colored person
to the board.

plans have you, if any for super
vision on recreation for children
in your district"
Answer-Increasd supervision
of recreation for the children
in my district is one of It's cry
ing and vital needs which would
reduce juvnile delinquency, in
crease the happiness of all the
people and make the District
anG the City a better place in
which to live. A few years ago,
after 1 had obtained thousands
of signatures from the people
living in the neighborhood, I
saved Madison Park, located in
my district, from destruction. In
this park, as well as in many
other places scattered through
out the district, there certainly
should be surprised recreational
facilities.
In the short QUESTIONABLE suo-
nlittted by by these these ladies ladies, It was
impossible to cover verything.
I do want to point out to you,
however, the assistance I have
given our citizens who are en-
titled to receive Old Age Benefits,
Unemployment and Welfare
Benefits and Aid to Dependent
Children. I know of no one who
has appeared more regularly be-
for the Appeal Board of the Old
Age Assistance than I have.
One of my many appearances
is as follows: Only few short
weeks ago, man came to me who
had been denied Old Age As
sistance benefits by the Board.

My Radio Friends:
1t is very evident that a lot
of thinking went into the ques-
tionnaire compiled by the Lea
que of Women Voters of Boston,
which was sent to ALL the can
didats for public Office in the
City of Boston. In the short
space of time allotted to me to-
night, perhaps there is nothing
that I could better get across
to the radio audience than a
couple of the questions sub
mitted to me as candidate for
City Councillor, by these public
spirited women and the an
swers which I sent back to them
and are now a matter of public
record.
Question: what would your
action be On justifliable city
wide economy if it should mean
curtailing city employment of
your constituents"
Answer-My experience has
been that approximately one
hundred per cent of the citizens
of Ward 9, now in city employ
ment, are Civil Service employ
es. 1t is not beyond the realm Of
probability that a city wide
economy could justify the cur
tailment of their employment,
ALL of whom are in the lower
income bracket. I believe the City
should be run on sound, bust
ness basis, and I would favor
consolidating Department Heads
and eliminating padded pay
rolls as city wide economy is
justified. However, I will NOT
vote to eliminate Civil Service
employees as this is not justifi-
able city wide economy.
Another Question - what

Twin Brook. Homewood 1 and II
were also organized in 1913, early
in the year. This brings the total
number of clubs to 81.
An outstanding feature of the
Fall Meeting was the hooked rugs.
There is no space to compliment all
the "hookers" but one word of
praise goes to every exhibitor,
that her rug was lovely and of
heirloom quality. The Spring Meet
ing is to be a display of all the
rugs hooked under the Project
Leaders this winter and it should
be one of the most dramatic Spring
Meetings of the Homemakers
Council.
The speaker of the day, Donald
Beckley, held the groups interest
as he talked on the fine old china
he had brought. His collection of
old catalogues showing the prices
of wares from 1899 to date. gave
the women an idea of the present
value of many old pieces as com
pared with the purchase price. In
terest was great in the identi-
cation of the china and bric-a-brac
the club members brought. Mr..
Beckley is frank enthusiastic
speaker, who gave a most informa-
tive talk.
