Citizens Group Paper
Loses Antitrust Suit
AGAINST D. T.. Stores

The Merchants and Manufact-
urers' Association and four mer-
chants have won motions TO dis
miss q civil antitrust suit filed in
District Court a year ago by the
District of Columbia Citizen Pub
fishing Co.
The suit charged the association
and merchants boycotted advertis-
ing in the District Of Columbia
Citizen-official organ Of The Fed
Grafton of Citizens Associations -
and asked damages totaling s225.-
900.
The merchants were the Hecht
Co. s. Kann Sons Co. Wood
ward e. Lothrop and the Young
Mems Shop.
Judge Ben Moore Of West Viz
ginia. who has been serving as a
visiting judge In District Court
during the litigation. ruled that
the complaint did not state a
cause Of action under the Sher-
man Act.
Opinion Is Cited.
In memorandum opinion. Judge
Moore noted that the monthly
newspaper derived its income
largely from advertising and that
the Merchants and Manufactur-
ers' Association Committee on
Donations and Advertising was
said to have refused to approve
advertising in the Citizen.
Obviously" Judge Moore write.
"the acts charged to defendants
do not tend TO create any monop-
oily of the newspaper publishing
business on the part of defend
ants. They are not engaged in
that business.
Judge Moore noted it was al
legged in the complaint that the
defendants and Is other retail and
department stores in Washington
had engaged in unlawful attempt
to monopoliZe the circulation OF
advertising in the District and
in interstate commerce.
Allegations Denied.
He said these allegations were
without basis in the facts pre-
sented to support the charge.
Judge Moore noted that trade
associations such as the Mer-
chants & Manufacturers, serve a
useful purpose in the economic
life of any community.
The judge said there was moth
ing unlawful in the maintenance
by a trade association of a COM
mittee to make decisions for or
recommendations to its members
on what advertising media might
be useful or advantageous.
Co-plaintiff in the suit was Paul
p. Walsh. editor Of the Citizen.

School Bill Sponsors
Confident Of BEATING
Civil Rights Rider

A civil rights amendment 20 the
$500 900 900 Federal aid 70 edu-
cation bill was Up for Senate &C
ton today. but sponsors OF the
school legislation were confident
Of beating il.
The amendment. offered by
Senator Lodge. Republican. OF
Massachusetts, would deny aid
funds to States whose public eie-
mentary and secondary schools
are not open 10 pupils without
regard 10 race. color. creed or
national origin"
Senators Aiken. Republican. of
Vermont; Douglas, Democrat, OF
Illinois, and others said that adop-
ton Of the amendment would Kill
the whole bill because Of the op-
position Of Senators from South
ern States which have separate
schools for whites and Negroes.
Lodge Formula Beaten.
The issue came up after
humping 6S-to-ll vote yesterday
against another Lodge amend
ment that would have revised the
formula for allotting funds 10 the
States for teachers salaries and
other school operating expenses.
Senator Lodge proposed giving
the States s,Ahat $40 year for
each publi7 school child. instead
of taking into account not only
the number II children. but also
the annual income payments in
each State. as the bill provides.
Under the bill the Federal pay
ments TO the States would vary
from IS to slightly over s29 per
pupil. with the largest per pupil
allotments going to the poorest
States
Senator Lodge said the bills
formula is not a true measure OF
the relative wealth of the States.
Taft Defends Plan.
Senator Taft. Republican. OF
Ohio defended the formula and
said Senator Lodges amendment
would destroy the purpose Of the
bill: To more nearly eQualize
educational opportunities in the
States"
Another pending amendment.
backed by Senators Tydings.
Democrat, of Maryland; O'Conor.
Democrat, of Maryland; Cain, Re-
publican, of Washington. and
Bricker. Republican. of Ohio.
would deny Federal aid to States
which already are making the
minimum school expenditures re-
quired by the bill.
The measure now provides that
all States shall get at least SIS
per pupil, and Tydings estimated
that his amendment would save
$50, 900 900 a year in the cost OF
the program.
Senator Taft told a reporter that
he agreed in principle that aid
should go only to those States that
need it. But he said that COM
promise had to be made to win
committee approval of the bill and
that he would stand by the COM
mittee proposal.
Another amendment. introduced
by Senator Donnell, Republican.
Of Missouri, would ban use of the
Federal funds for private or paro-
chial schools. The bill leaves this
up to each State. Some States
permit public funds to be used for
the aid of children in these schools
while others do not.

Welfare


had so many children last night
that it was impossible for the staff
to battle them all.
The welfare director said the
population Of 140 was a record.
He said welfare authorities had
never before been called on to
care for so many shelterless chill
dren at the same time.
In his letters to police and other
welfare authorities. Mr.. Tram
burg said no more children will
be accepted until the population
gets. down to 100 youngsters. He
gave these reasons:
Insufficient staff to take care of
the children.
Too little space or beds for
such numbers.
The threat that he will lose
what staff he has and that re-
cruiting more workers will be
impossible because of the over
work.
Insufficient money in the budget
to feed. clothe and care for more
than 80 children.
Called Climax of Inadequacy.
Capt. Rhoda Milliken of the
Women'S Bureau described the
situation as "the climax of years
of inadequate facilities" She
said she could not keep the child
rem at the Woman's Bureau and
did not know what she would do
with them. -
The babies-the annex has been
taking some--will have to go to
Gallinger where the only place
they can be put is with the sick
babies. Capt. Milliken said.
Families with no other place for
their children simply will have to
take them to Union Station and
sit up all night. she said.
Capt. Milliken said she didn't
know what to do about future
problems like the ones that came
up three times last Sunday when
neighbors called to say youngsters
ranging in age from 4 months to
S years were alone and apparently
deserted.
Mission Facilities Limited.
Capt. Milliken said the Central
Union Missions Emergency Home
could take some children. but only
those of school age. There are
no private facilities for colored
children. she said.
Mr.. Tramburg cited typical
case last night where eight chill
dren from one family were
brought to the annex for lodging
after their mother was rushed to
the hospital for an emergency
operation.
The new Children's Receiving
Home, which Is limited to delin-
quent children awaiting court &C.
ton was supposed to have q ca
pacity of 43, but Is now running
with a population of between "A
and 81 children. and has no room
for dependent ones. Mr.. Tram
burg said.

God In History

DUT GOD does not always or
- usually operate in spectacular
ways God works in history as he
works in nature, out of sight, visi'
BILE to the eye of faith but seldom it
ever otherwise. History, from the
Christian point of view, is the work
ing-out of the purposes of God.
The pattern is not entirely
clear to us, because we cannot
see enough of it at once. But
looking back through history.
we can see signs that God has
been there, This is the message
of the prophets of Israel, es-
pecialIy of the great Isaiah.
In a troubled era, when every
hing seemed to be in most com
,lete confusion, Isaiah gave out
5ome clear and plain truths from
God and helDed men then and now

The Life Of A Nation

ONE TRUTH is that justice is

tons death God being the God of
Justice his purpose is to set justice
in the earth God plays no favorites
among nations Any nation that
lives by Gods laws, lives; the ma
ton that defies God has signed its
own death warrant There are no
peoples who can get by with
what they please, if what they
please is not the will of God There
are people now who do not believe
that. They would say. Look at Rus
sia! In Isaiah's time there were
those who would say to Isaiah: You
must be wrong-look at Assyria!
There is a nation that does not
know God, and yet grows every
year stronger and stronger.
Gods AK
ISAIAH has startling answer to
that objection. Chap l0) AS
syria is a tool in Gods hand, no
more. He admits that Assyria has
no standard but force, she worships
only sheer Power. But there are
other nations, wicked ones, which
God intends to punish; one of these
is the nation of Israel
Assyria was destined to de-
strOy Israel once and for all,
and to damage Judah so Sc
verely she never would recov-
er. All this, Isaiah says. is in
Gods plan.
God does not punish an evil ma
ton with legions of angels; he
Furnishes it with invasions and de-
feats in war Assyria was an AK in
the hand of God, cutting down the
rotting trees of selfish and unjust
nations
