More wallets are found in mail
boxes than any other "unmail-
able" not because so many citizens
are lightheaded but because so
many are light-fingered. Pick
pockets dispose of the evidence by
dropping it in the nearest mailbox.
Albert Goldman, New York City
postmaster, says his Office gets a
hundred wallets a month.
The average man dOesn' even
know he was robbed. He thinks
he lost his wallet. When his mail
man delivers it to him, his reactions
invariably are: l. ''Oh boy, this is
swell. Some honest guy found it
and put it in a mailbox." 2. (After
he looks for his cash), "Say, what

The Chief of Police in a South

delighted to get back his wallet,
containing his Elks pin with a
half-carat diamond in it. But
would the clerk, he asked, please

self had been the victim of a
pickpocket?
Except for clothing which falls
out of badly wrapped packages, or
the gloves. belts and scarves which
stenographers throw in acciden-
tally when they mail the Office
correspondence in the fve-o'clock
rush for home, a great many loose
items are identified and returned.
Police Borrow Evidence
GUNs or other firearms go to the
police department for possible fin
gerprints but they are post-office
property and must eventually
come back there. The police, how
ever, may have them on loan for
as much as a couple of years as
evidence in a trial.
In dealing with other items,

There was a name and an address
in Evanston, ILL.,, to which he sent

even tried the American Fedora

Actually. to fulfill legal require
ments. he need only have sent
two notices, kept the horn a
month, and then sent it to regional
headquarters at San Francisco
where loose articles are auctioned

The COMMON DEFENSE
Americanism Of the Amvets
BY REV. WILLIAM c. HERMAN

So much has been said and
written lauding American sports
for removing racial and religious
barriers that it comes as some
thing of a surprise to learn that
the bylaws of the American
Bowling Congress discriminate "a
gainst non-Caucasions.
American Veterans of World
War II has brought this unsavory
state of affairs to light. first in a
resolution adopted by its Santa
Barbara, California Post No. g.,
and later by action of the Nation
al Executive Committee.
The whole thing started when
the Santa Barbara Post was told
that its Handicap Bowling Team
captained by Harold Lee, a nom
Caucasian-had neither sanction
lOl SldllQlilS III TIC lldtlOll WING
bowling leagues sponsored by the
American Bowling Congress, al
though it was permitted to take
part in local play-offs.
Incensed over this obvious slap
at colored veterans, Santa Bar
bara Amvets drew up a strong
resolution and dispatched it forth
with to its National Organization
with the request that the Ameri-
can Bowling Congress be asked to
strike non-Caucasian restrictions
from its by laws.
The resolution stated flatly that
Amvets recognizes no racial or
class distinction in its member.
ship" Colored, as web as white,
men are eligible for Amvets bowl
ing teams throughout the country
and do, in many cases, nlav or
Arkansas State press., 1949-02-04

them-a fact which is greatly to
the credit of Amvets but which
deprives their teams of standing
with the American Bowling Con-
gress on account of its restrictions
against non-Caucasians,
This is not to be borne lightly
because, as the Amvets resolution
points out the American Bowling
Congress. although a private Or
ganization, uses the facilities OF
public bowling alleys which ar
bitrarily closes to non-Caucasians,
Amvets take the logical position
that when the American Bowling
Congress uses public bowling al
leys H. ceases to be closed club
and to have the right to discrim-
mate against colored Americans.
As has been said, the resolution
of the California Post was sent to
the National Organization with a
request for action. The National
Executive Committee acted by
promptly adopting the resolution,
and by writing to the American
Bowling Congress urging that its
discriminatory bylaws be chang
ed and adding that, if they were
not changed, the next Amvets
Convention would be asked to
withdraw its bowling teams from
the Congress.
Congratulations to National
Commander Harold A. Keats and
his organization which is giving
us an example of Americanism in
action of which all Americans
may well be proud. 1t is the kind
of Americanism in action all Am
orleans ought to emulate.
