MRS. GOLSTEIN AND
Mr.. ZILCH
BY Alfred Segal

AS l go around our Town,
have been meeting some stuffy
people, like Mr.. Zilch, lately.
They say: THE idea of that!
Was that a thing for great in
stitution of Jewish learning to
bother itself with?"
These, in fact, were exactly the
words of the citizen shall char
itably call Mr.. Zilch. Mr.. Zilch
was burning up. He didn't like
at all the reception that was CIV
en- Mrs. Goldstein at our Hebrew
Union College. He wasn't there
had absented himself deliber-
ately-but he didn't like it, any,
way.
Do you recall Mrs. Goldstein?
Mrs. Sylvia Goldstein. that is of
Lynn. Mass. In case you need
to be reminded she is the Mrs.
Goldstein who wrote that letter
to the editor of the Lynn News
paper.
Her boy, Larry, age II, had
been set upon and beaten by
gang of kids when he was on the
way home from a Boy Scout
meeting. They shouted "Jew" at
him. C''Paste the little Jew"
Instead of going to the police
about it. Mrs. Goldstein went
straight to the public conscience
with letter to the editor of the
Lynn newspaper. He printed it
on the front page. Mrs. Goldstein
asked. was this the kind of thing
her husband. Maurice. had died
for? He died in the Battle of the
Bulge. That was back in 1914 and
she was hoping that time hadn't
been forgotten.
Her idea was that Maurice had
died for the brotherhood of man,
Tor such moral education of
children that never again any,
thing like Hitler could arise in
the world and be accepted, for
the ethical teaching of all the re-
hglonS which tell men that the
neighbor is brother, and what
difference could the neighbours
religion or his race matter?
Our Hebrew Union College
thought Mrs. Goldstein's simple
letter to the editor was as elo-
qnentlY Jewish. finely human as
any book or manuscript in its
great library. DR.. Nelson Glueck.
president of the college. invited
Mrs. Goldstein and her son to be
guests of the college on a week
end.
In the college chapel there was
reception for her and the boy
the other Sunday. The Mayors
friendly Relations Committee
was in on it; the Conference of
christians and Jews; the Fellow
snip House. There was singing
Oy choir of white people and
colored. There were brief
speeches Gncluding one by DR..
Glueck) and refreshments.
Larry was presented with a
baseball that was batted over our
NATIONAL League baseball field
me past season. The Jewish War
veterans gave him a certificate
'4at said three trees were being
planted in Palestine in his name.
But here was this Mr.. Zilch-
ana other Zilches = protesting:

ST. CROIX, ST. THO.
TO GET TWO DIP
PHYSICIANS

The Municipal Councils of
St. Croix and st. Thomas have
authorized the appointment of
two physicians from among
the displaced persons in
Europe to be assigned in both
municipalities. This was de-
cided on following conferences
in the matter Of medical va
canies existing in the Islands
and an explanation submitted
to the Council that it has been
found impossible to fill them
from the United States main
land because of salaries deem
ed inadequate by the medical
profession.
This action came as a result
of a survey made recently in
Europe for the Department of
the Interior to find medical ia
lent among displaced persons
for possible use in Pacific Is
lands and other territories, and
it is anticipated that medical
officers with considerable ex-
perience and qualifications
will be obtained through the
international Refugee Organi
cation.

YOUTH COUNCIL
HOLDS End ANNUAL
CONVENTION IN NY

Lie OeCOnQ annual COnVen
ton of the Virgin Islands
Youth Council was held in
New York on Thursday and
Friday, December 20, and 80
fin the auditorium of the
United Mutual Life Insurance
Company in New York City.
According to the program
the keynote addressed was de
livered by Attorney Henry de
la Garde, a native of the Vir
gin Islands now procticing
law in Washington D. c.,
whose address hinged on i'm
mediate unification."
A highlight of the conven-
ton was the principal address
delivered by Congressman
Aram C. Powell, Jr. dynamic
Negro Congressman from New
York's 22nd District. His sub
ject was "The role of young
Virgin Islanders nm the
Achievement of Insular Pro
gress."
Coming together for their
second annual convention,
were native students now at
tending Harvard, Columbia,
Howard, ST. Johns Syracuse
Notre Dame, New York and
American Universities. And
from Rider, Morgan State,
City and Bennett Colleges,
Hampton Institute, trade and
technical schools. The reunion
was significant in terms of
youths contribution to Virgin
Islands progress.
Realizing -tha the young
natives of today are the lead
ers of tomorrow, and fully
cognizant of the role that
young trained Virgin Island
erS can play in the shaping of
the Islands future, the Coun-
cil's approved platform ought
to be significant in its state
ment of position on current
socio-economic, and political
questions, "a release from the
organization states, and cts
expected demand for unusual
and perhaps novel approaches
to the solution of social, econo
mic, political, and educational
problems will accurately re-
fleet the thinking of Young
Virgin Islanders"

Truman "ls Rigght;'' U. $. Must Have
 Increased Taxes
By D. Harold Oliver)

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman said today a prospective federal deficit on June 30 is a far more serious threat to the nations economy than his proposed four billion dollar tax increase.
 He told a news conference he did not agree with Senator George D.-GaD that the tax increase, as a reporter put it, is the only thing that would get the country into a serious depression. George is wrong, he said.
 The President also denied that his anti-inflation program or any part of it has been shelved as one published report said. He said the mere fact that he had requested

Wave Of Strikes
 Sweep Over States
CBy The Associated PreSS)

New strikes were in effect or authorized today against segments of nearly all forms of transporta- ton.
 Taxicab drivers left their jobs in a city-Wide strike in New York City. Radio officers of Pan Ameri- can World Airways, went on strike. The Canadian seamen's union called walkout against Canada's east coast shipowners, and the order of railway conduc- tors authorized a strike of their union against the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad.
 Another strike of bus drivers and mechanics against the Akron, O., transportation company was short-lived. It ended after a few hours with acceptance by the CIO transport union of a seven cents an hour wage boost. The 500 workers originally had asked an increase of 30 cents an hour.
 About 100000 members of the United Mine Workers remained off their jobs today in observance of John Mitchell Day. Most of them were expected to remain idle until Monday. Mitchell was one of the unions early leaders.
 On other labor fronts, the gov ernment proposed arbitration of a wage dispute between 50,000 clerks and the Railway Express agency; the brotherhood of loco- motive engineers and the brother hood of locomotive firemen and enginemen approved merger plan; and the AFL international

Congress Roundup

WASHINGTON, CP)-The Hoo yer commission today asked Con- gress to take the government out of the banking business.
 The 12-member bi-part S n commission headed by former President Herbert Hoover recon mended in it's 18th and final re- port on reorganization of the ex- ecutive branch of government that Uncle Sam quit lending money.
 Waste, favoritism and even corruption" are invited when the government makes direct loans to firms and individuals, the report said.
 The reconstruction finance cor poration, the big source of federal credit in war and depression, could be reorganized into a mere guarantor of private bank loans, the commission suggested.
 And 30 other similar or related federal agencies should be merged or eliminated, the report contin- ued.
 On the question of public pow CT, the group was hopelessly snarled and instead of making an outright recommendation, several members of the group wrote "sug- gestions" which varied sharply.
 Hoover himself urged the gov ernment to end its hydroelectric operations at power dams Gone of which is named after him) instead of putting up transmission and distribution lines which sometimes duplicate private lines.
 In the Senate today, Republi- cans were accused of using fill buster tactics to delay a vote on

Many Testify For Gov. Cruening At Capital Hearing
(By Charles D. Watkins)

CCF) Special Washington Service)
 WASHINGTON, (P) -Alaskans from all walks of life are here to carry before the Senate interior committee their support and oppo- sition 10 the appointment of Gov ernor Ernest Gruening of Alaska for another term.
 The committee set the hearing on Gruenings nomination, after two pOstpOnements to give resi- dents of the Territory an oppor- tunity 10 voice their views in per son.
 Four members of the Alaskan legislature are here to oppose confirmation while four others came in a party of 43 to urge ap- prOval of the nomination.
 The opponents also include Cap tain Austin E. Lathrop, Fairbanks newspaper, theater and mine own CT, and banker, a Republican. La throp said Gruening doesn't be- long in Alaska at all" and said the governors chief interest is in ''pro- motion of Gruening rather than of the Territory"
 But it was a different story from the jubilant 43 who flew here and cheered Gruening's name as they alighted at the na- tional airport.
 They said each one had paid his or her own way to speak up for the Governor.
 And, they labeled opponents to the Governors confirmation "die hards" who had fought Gruening's tax and other programs in the leg iSlature and had lost.
 "Governor Gruening is the only governor the Territory has had who acted as a governor should and who has showed interest in the people of the Territory and their welfare" Mayor z. J. V. Loussac of Anchorage told a re- porter.
 He is the only one of the gov ernors who has had the welfare of the Territory at heart"

 Nations of the west today began lining up a solid front which they hope will enforce peace in the world.
 British foreign secretary Ernest Bevin and secretary of state Dean Acheson scheduled the first of series of major conferences in Washington this afternoon.
 While the main reason for BeV- in's visit to the United States is the signing of the North Atlantic security treaty Monday, the meet ings were expected to cover the whole problem of reinforcing the unity of the west against Russia.
 Also slated for detailed discus sion is the future of western Ger many.
 French foreign minister Robert Echuman probably will see Ache son tomorrow and the three for eign finisterS will make a deter mined effort to end policy differ ences preventing creation of sin gle German government over the American, British and French oc- cupation zones. Other issues to be threshed out include:
 The security of middle eastern countries such as Turkey, Greece, and Iran, the possibility of form ing Mediterranean defense treaty, and how to block the spread of communism in southeast Asia.
 A French cabinet spokesman said in Paris that Schuman will demand that the French army be built up and armed heavily under the pact so it can take on the role of Western Europe's main defend CT in the event of war.
 Others scheduled to arrive in Washington in the next few days include representative of Belgi- um, Holland, Luxembourg and Italy.
 The foreign ministers of Ice land, Denmark, Norway and Por tugal are also expected in time for the first formal meeting of the pact countries Saturday morning. Iceland and Portugal decided yes terday to join the alliance.
 In Bonn, Germany, members of the constituent assembly made another try today at reaching an agreement on a constitution for the West German state proposed by the U. S., Britain and France.
 Squabbles between German po- litical groups over haw the State should be set up have blocked as- sembly action on adopting a con- stitution.
 Britain's wartime prime minis terri Winston Churchill, speaks in Boston tonight on what hope he sees for man in this war-marred century.
 Churchill, who electrified the world in March, 1946, with his "iron curtain" speech in Fulton, Mo-, will speak on "The 20th Gen. tury, Its Promise and Its Realiza- tion."
