tribute to the solution Of prob
lem on our doorsteps which is
perhaps more complex and blaf-
fling than the Palestine problem"
DR.. Ralph Johnson Bunche. re-
firing acting UN mediator for
Palestine, said In an address at
the annual award dinner OF the
America Association for the UN,
held at the Waldorf-Astoria last
Monday night with more than 900
persons attending.
The recipient of the annual
award of the AAUN, DIR. Bunche
in seven page address told OF
the working of his committee.
and the progress made to bring
peace In the Holy Land.
In thanking the association for
its award, the retiring mediator
said, IF l experience pride at this
moment, 1t is pride principally in
my origin pride that I, who
have come from and remain with
the ranks could be of responsible
service to the UN and the cause
of peace for which it stands"
After telling of the cooperation
given him by the General As
sembly and the Security council.
as well as by the Secretary
General of the UN, Trygve Lie,
DR.. Bunche ended his address in
very personal manner.
IF you will pardon a first per-
son reference. may say that at
one time or the other in the
course of my work in Palestine.
I have been accusd OF being pro
or anti almost everything, with
the possible exceptions of Allah,

In concluding DR.. Bunche spoke
as IAN American and Negro,
saying that the solution of prob
lem on our doorstep, (which is
perhaps mre complex and battling
than the Palestine problem" must
be solved by all, ''if our own

Paul Crouch, an admitted ex-

Crouch testified he was present
at the 1888 Communist Party con-
vention in New York City when
Bridges was elected to the Gen.
trail Committee under the name
Of "Rossi."
He also testified Bridges was re-
elected to the Central Committee

head of the American Communist
Party then.
Bridges is being tried on q
charge of perjury for testifying
at his naturalization hearing in

CLIO Longshoremen's and Ware

Mr.. Mailman said the docu-

Il don't know where Mr.. Hal

Since 1t Is supposed to be
signed by Browder, I doubt it,"

agreed to the extent that Mr.. Hal
Imam would have to have the
documents certified as true

as evidence.
Crouch Admits Prison Term.
Prior to Mr.. Hallinan's attempt
to use the documents, Crouch
testified there were no such rec

said any such records would have
been sent to Moscow.
During the cross-examination
the defense lawyer went into

Crouch admitted being sent to
