cut short. If and
when this is done it might be
expected that the influential
pivotal vote of the Negro in
America is going to make it
self heard, for if their past re-
action to the HASTE appoint
ment serves as a barometer,
then they will also react
in such a case, but to the re-
verse. 1t was felt everywhere
that the HASTE appointment
was an excellent sign that de-
mocracy was beginning to
show itself in a practical, eff
fective and down to earth
manner.
MANY of our readers might
not agree with US, but a little
sober thought will show that
there is much to be consider
ed.

THE NEXT

SINCE Il announcement that Governor HASTE has
been named to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Phila-
delphia, nothing official has come concerning the new cover
nor. And this throws wide open one of the most speculative
and tossed about questions concerning the Islands, for from
this point the President might go three ways. He might ap-
point a native, a possibility still considered by many to be
quite remote, then he might name a prominent Negro poll
tician, following the pattern set when Governor HASTE was
appointed, and finally he might take. the matter out of the
political class, and follow the pattern which was formerly used
in Puerto Rico-that of appointing a distinguished career mill
tary, or Naval man who is on the retired list.
H SITUATION throws the entire Virgin Islands in a
other. We cannot, as yet, elect our own governors, and must
wait patiently while the office is filled by appointment from
Washington, and what is even more unfortunate is that we
hhave placed entirely too much emphasis upon the office, be-
coming c%omplacent in the mistaken thought that the COVER
nor, in and of himself, both as an individual and an officer, can
bring about changes in the life Of these islands, simply by do
ing a good job. Time and again we have tried to point out
that this is simply not so; that the Governor, while he is in a
position to contact Washington, and tap many valuable
sources, still is definitely handicapped, and that what we
should expect of him is honesty, ability, and the desire to in
sist upon good, clean, efficient government. If he does this,
and does it well, then he has fulfilled to the best of his ability,
all that can and should be expected Of him.
REGARDLESS OF who comes as Governor certain basic
problems will remain, and there is where much more local mi
tiaive and understanding will have to be called into play.
The best that we can hope is that someone highly influential
with Congress comes to occupy Government House, but even
that is remote. The distinguished politicians and statesmen
who WELD influence with Congress are needed, and kept, close
to Washington, and never find themselves this far away. But
we hope for the best.

Ter or Naval officer, the hands of the clock will have been
turned back, and one more position of influence to colored

germs are passed through in
direct contact may be seen in
a situation like this: Let us
suppose that an Individual suf
fering from diptheria is being
cared for in a home. Infectious
material from his throat is left
on a glass, which, unwashed,
is used by another member of
the family. This other member
of the family is acquiring the
germs Of diptheria through in
direct contact, the contamina-
ted glass serving as. the link
between him and the sick per-
son.
Having a knowledge of this
first mode of transfer, we are
better able to understand the
reason for two of our foremost
health principles. They are
principles which if consistent
~ followed, increase our
chances in the fight against
disease.
These principles are:
/. Avoid close contact with
the sick.
2. Wash hands frequently.
especially after using the toll
ct. before eating. and after
handling the sick or objects
used by the sick.

In this article we would like
to discuss briefly, the first two
of these modes Of transfer
namely, transfer by contact.
When a person coughs or
contact occurs during init
mate relations. This is the
kind of contact by which the
germs of the venereal diseases
are passed from person to per
son.
Indirect contact takes place
when a third agent forms the
connecting link between the
person who has the disease, &
the second person. This third
agent may be aonther person,
or, it may be an object, such
as a dish, or utensil, a towel,
a toy or any similar article.

The Story OF
Judah P.
BENJAMIN

Many legends have grown
around the name of Judah P.
Benjamin, the American states
man of the middle of the 18th
Century.
Some experts contend that he
was an observant Jew, loyal to
the faith of his fathers. Others
that he adopted the Catholic
faith of his wife and daughter.
In a closely reasoned and
carefully documented brochure,
Judah P. Benjamin as a Jew"
DR.. Bertram w. Korn, of the
history faculty of the Hebrew
Union College in Cincinnati,
concludes that Benjamin, born a
Jew, chad no positive or active
interest in Jews or in judaism" "
yet che never denied being Jew
ish or sought to escape his back
ground through conversion. DR..
Korn's brochure, a reprint of an
article which appeared under the
same title in a recent issue of
Publications of the American
Jewish Historical Society, is
published by the Jewish Publ
cation Society.
Judah P. Benjamin, an out
standing lawyer and orator in
his day, was offered a seat on the
U. S. Supreme Court at the age
of 81 and the post of Ambassador
to Spain. He was elected to the

When child is frail and nervous or under par,
it may be due to a number of things. But one of
the commonest causes is faulty nutrition. And
this cause is one which you, the mother, can do
something about.
In situations like this, many mothers are now
turning to Ovaltine. For Ovaltine, mixed with
milk, is rich supplementary food-a protecting
food that fills in the gaps, the chinks, and the
loopholes of an otherwise good diet. It con-
tains, in addition to essential high-quality pro-
tens and quick-energy foods, the important vita
minis A, b., c, D, G, Niacin, and the valuable
minerals Iron Calcium and Phosphorus.
You must also bear in mind that, for robust
health, child needs proportionately to times
as much protein, calcium, iron, vitamins b., c
and Niacin as an adult. That's another reason
Evening star., 1949-11-06

for supplementary food like Ovaltine-to give
the under par child extra amounts of the pro-
tecting things needed in extra amounts.
1t is also important to know that Ovaltine is
specially processed to make it very easy to digest
child with delicate stomach will usually
digest and absorb Ovaltine very readily. Ovaltine
even makes milk more easy to digest.
So when you give 2 to 8 glasses of Ovaltine in
addition to everyday meals you can be certain
that you have done just about everything you
can do to improve your child's nutrition.
A New Flavor H
Ovaltine is available in plain and in an improved,
sweet, chocolate flavor which children really like.
So, why not give your child Ovaltine every day
for 80 to 60 days and carefully note the results.
