New Secretary Has
Local Friends

Among the countless congratu-
lations that poured in on Louis
Johnson Monday in Washington,
none was probably appreciated
more by the new Secretary of De-
fense than the flowers sent by his
old friends, Nick Stevens, Oak
Harbor and Rep. Thomas II.
Burke.
Mr.. Stevens and Mr.. Johnson
first met while in service overseas
in World War l. After the war
they became close friends through
their American Legion affiliations.
They maintained their friend
ship through the years when Mr..
Johnson served as Assistant Sec
retary of War, from 1937-1941 and
as personal representative of
Franklin d. Roosevelt in India in
1912.
That Mr.. Johnson should step

surprise to Mr.. Stevens. "He is a
man Of tremendous capabilities,

Correct Posture
Week Is May II

DIR. L. M. Rogers, Executive
Secretary of the National Chiro-
practic Association, has an
nounced May IT as National Cor
rect Posture Week. DR.. Rogers
said, Training in correct pos
ture, as in so many other valuable
things, comes naturally and easily
in children"
He also stated "When faults de-
velop early through incorrect
training or no training at all,
they are infinitely harder to COR
rect in later life and we never
know when they will leave some
lasting injury unless corrected in
early life.
If we could train just one gen
Grafton to walk and sit, and stand
correctly, we would render a ma
tional health service comparable
to the development of public san
itation." Schools, Boy and Girl
Scouts, All and similar groups
will be asked to participate in
programs to demonstrate to the
public the relationship of correct
posture to good health.
Another statement that DR..
Rogers made was: "The purpose
of the week is to develop national
consciousness to the value of cor
rect posture and to the dangers of
incorrect posture which exacts a
staggering toll annually in sick
ness, reduced income and lost in
dustrial production. Chiroprac-
tic societies are working to ad-
vance this great movement.

Rhode Island
FEPC Receives
First Complaints

PROVIDENCE, R. I.-(ANP)
The Rhode Island Fair Employ
ment Practices act became effec-
tive on July 1 and on that date
the commission to administer the
law became operative.
The following persons are mem
bers of the commission: George E.
Conlay, former State Senator,
chairman; Joseph M. Finkle; John
L. Lopez, Negro member of the
commission and a Providence NOR
tician; John H. Nolan of Newport,
former State Attorney-Ge General;
and R. Franklin Weller.
Policies have been formulated
and adopted and a set of Rules
and Regulations have been COM
piled and both are now ready
for distribution to simplify the
language of the act and to assist
all persons affected by the law to
interpret the provisions clearly.
Since the date of operation the
agency has assisted hundreds of
firms and establishments in revis-
ing their applications for employ
ment forms to have them in COM
pliance with the law.
Also, plans are contemplated
for an educational program in
schools and in industry and a meet
ing has been arranged between
members of the commission and
DIR. Michael A. Walsh, state direct
or Of education for the preparat-
ion of such a plan.
To date only two officials
complaints of alleged discrimina-
ton have been broupbh to the at
tention of the agency. One case
was dismissed by reason Of lack
of jurisdiction as the date of the
alleged act of discrimination was
prior to the effective date of the
act, July 1, 1949. The second
case is nuder investigation. None

Brannan told the group that
the cause of workers and farmers
was identical.
"There is almost no limit to
what this nation can accomplish
of we all work together, especial
ly farmers and laborers," he said.
He pointed to the real income of
workers which has declined Is
percent since 1914 and said farm
products had declined also, about
16 percent.
Lets unite for agricultural alb
undance so distributed as to pro-
vide Que people with full dinner
pals and satisfied stomachs," Bra
nnan continued. Unite upon slum
clearance in rural and urban
areas alike. Unite upon adequate
social security for all of the
people but above all lets unite in
brotherhood"
Cong. Dawson who had been
selected by the Illinois Democratic
delegation to speak in it's behalf
although most of the Illinois con-
gressmen were at the speakers
table, gave a slashing address
which won frequent applause.
"The battle between those who
fight for intrenched capital and
property rights as against those
who fight for human rights is
IN today as never BEFORE" said
Dawson. millions Of dollars are
spent yearly by vested interests
trying to shape the results of
political campaigns. To a great
extent these interests control the
radio, press and other methods of
spreading propaganda in order to
shape and control public opinion.
They spend millions upon millions
through lobbies set up in munich
pal, state and national legislative
bodies in order to influence legis-
lation to the end that the claims
Of the favored few may be secure
as against the rights of the work
ing masses.
"But thanks to u form of
government" Cog. Dawson con-
tinued, "the power in the last
analysis rests with the people. The
favored few have the dollars but
the working people have the bal
lot. Capital has the dollars but
labor has the people. Dollars can't
vote but people can. It's labor's
job collectively and yours and
mine individuals to see that mil
lions and millions of working
people without regard to race,
nationality or religion, register
and vote.
Eve have the platform. W. have
the President. We know who the
foes of labor and progress are : :
the miserable coalition of northern
Republicans End southern react
tonaries.

Cowords Behind Masks

For some days now the Birmingham
area of Alabama has been infested by q
kind of human vermin. Posing as guard
ians OF public morals, they are cowardly
and stupid men who hide behind masks
and 20 around with whips and truncheons
to do violence to defenseless citizens. They
have dragged crippled minor from his
bed and forced him-as a warning-to
watch the brutal fogging OF neighbor.
They have taken a widow from her home
and beaten her before the eyes Of two OF
her i've children. They have committed
similar outrages against several others,
and they have terrorized many more with
messages that the same thing will happen
to them II they are not careful.
It is not certain whether or not these
hooded bullies are members Of the Ku Klux
Klan, though some Of their victims have
said that they are. There is one thing
about them, however, that Is altogether
clear: They represent peculiarly repel-
lent and vicious type of criminal-the self
righteous mobster, the lyncher- mind with
q twisted sense of morals, the near
moronic, sadistic hoodlum who exults In
taking the law into his own hands, but
who is not man enough to do 1t alone,
with his face barred, against anybody ca
pable Of self-defense. He must travel In
q group, furtively and disguised, and his
victims-including women-must have no
way ef striking hack. 10 y ths persontn-
