Southern Baptist
Hit Mob Violence
XXX In U.S.A..

RIDGECREST, S. c., Sept. s.
In meeting of the social service
commission of the Southern Bap-
fist Convention here last week the
commission denounced the rise of
mob rule and the Ku Klux Khan
in the United States.
At the close of the commission S
fourth annual conference at which
'The Next Step in Race Rela-
TONS was discussed, Hugh A.
Brimm, executive secretary of the
commission issued the following
statement:
1--WE look with alarm upon the
recurrence of mob role and VOL
ence in Que southern region. 1t
can only be judged as anti-chris-
tian, anti-democratic, and there
fore subxersive and insidious
threat to the assurance of Amer
ica's leadership in the cause of
worlt peace.
"The use of the scored symbol
of the christian faith by the hood
ed promoters of race hatred and
bigotry is a PRESCRIPTIONS sacrilege
and a menace to the progress of
worldwide organization of the
Christian Cause.
1--WE deplore the fact that some
ministers of the gospel and 9TH
er church members have affiliat-
ed themselves with a movement so
contrary to the ideals of human
decency and the spirit of Christ,
as is the Ku Klux Khan.
I'VE call upon the fellowship of
Christians around the world to
stand firm and without compro-
mise for the processes of law and
order"

Vo!io Foundation Asks Dimes and oon+,rs
Now 70 Fay for Paiient Care in Epider1:e Of
Infantile Paralysis Throughout co.":.y

With thousands of children
and adults in hospitals today as
the result of current widespread
polio epidemics, and with as
many new cases likely to de-
velop in the months just ahead,
the National Foundation for In
fantile Paralysis has launched a
Polio Epidemic Emergency Drive
to provide immediate funds for
patient care.
> The price-tag on this years
epidemic will be so enormous,
according to Basil O'Connor,
National Foundation President,
that $14,500,000 must be raised
to meet the national polio bill.
: During 1948, when there were
27,908 cases in the country, the
highest number since the record
total in 1916, the National Foun-
dalton and its Chapters spent
$l7,000,000 in March of Dimes
funds to provide epidemic serv-
ices, he said. With even more
cases this year. it looks as though
it may cost $25,000,000 in 1949
to pay for that part of medical
and hospital care which fami-
lies cannot pay themselves.
BY the end of August, as much
money had been advanced in
epidemic aid to National Foun-
dalton Chapters whose March of
Dimes funds have been exhaust
ed by the cost of care as was
sent in all of 1913. The nations
total number of cases now is as
large as a full years toll in pre-
vious years, with predictions for
at least double that number be-
fore December 81.
Furthermore, it is estimated
that a minimum of $5,000,00C
will be required to continue
helping 1913 patients who still
need clinic or hospital treat
ment. The National Foundation
gives assistance as long as medi-
cal care is necessary, regard
less of age, race, creed or color
The money raised in the Polio
Epidemic Emergency Drive viii

Progress since 1888 when the
National Foundation was
formed, was indicated by Mr..
O'Connor as follows:
More than $23, 500, 900 has gone
into a. comprehensive research
and education program, seeking
control of polio and training of
experts - virologists, orthoped-
lists, pediatricians, public health
physicians, nurses, physical Their
apists, and other medical work
ers who make up the profess
sional army now battling the
disease in laboratories and hos
pital wards.
At least $5o,0OO,o0o had gone
for patient care, prior to 1949, in
payment of polio bills families
could not meet themselves; in
stating and equipping polio CEN
tiers for modern care and treat
ment, in establishing equipment
depots in six strategic locations
throughout the country from
which respirators, hot pack ma
chimes, beds, cribs and other
emergency suppliesncan be rap
idly dispatched to hard-hit areas.
eve know now that fully 75%
of those stricken make good
recoveries if good treatment is
available" Mr.. O'Connor said.
Surely no one would deny a

recovery because of lack Of

 The bull plainly didn't like red fire engines-he just planted him. self in a narrow roadway and challenged the firemen to come on. They didn't.
 Doubling as picadors, the fire fighters armed themselves with pitchforkS and drove the bull into a field. The bull got loose and came back. The fire was getting worse. The firemen finally penned

Mr.. CHAIRMAN. Representa-

pal Council, Ladies and Gentle
men:
| am inclined to share in the
view that Senator Butler meant
well when he introduced in Con-
gress the Bill for a single Resident
Commissioner for Puerto Rico and
the Virgin Islands. But he certain
ly did not consider the matter
thoroughly before introducing his
Bill. 1t was an oversight that the
Senator did not find out the
views of the people both in the
Virgin Islands & Puerto Rico be-
fore concluding that he was do
ing the right thing which would
be acceptable and proper.
/ have not yet seen a copy of
the Bill, but / understand that it
provides, among other things, that
the proposed Resident Commits
sioner shall be elected jointly by
the people of Puerto Rico and the
people of the Virgin Islands. Now,
on the face of that it might ap-
pear that the Virgin Islands would
have a democratic chance to de-
termine who such a representa-
tive shall be. But that is not so.
It will be utterly impossible I'M
der the provisions of Senator But
ler's Bill for the Virgin Islands to
Influence an election, left alone
ever being able to elect one of it's
own people to the post of Resident
Commissioner.
AS we know, Puerto Rico has a
population of about 100000 peo-
pie, who speak the same language
and maintain the same traditions
and customs. The number of re-
gistered voters in Puerto Rico are
over half a million. In the Virgin
Islands, our population is about
$4,000. Our people speak the same
language and have the same GUS
toms, which are not the same as
exist in the island Of Puerto Rico,

That is why the tiny state OF
Rhode Island, with a population
of less than a million people, has
the same number of Senators in
Congress as the Empire State OF
New York, with its thirteen and
a half million people and an area
fifty times that of little Rhode
Island.
Even though this is a declared
and accepted democratic pivot of
every State, ever so often we are
told by officials in Washington
(and Senator Butler is one of
them) that the Virgin Islands are
too small to warrant a Resident
Commissioner the same as Puer-
to Rico, Alaska and the Hawaiian
Islands. 1t has never been denied
that due to the absence of a Resi-
dent Commissioner the Virgin Is
lands + continually at a disad-
vantage with other possessions.
For years I'LL people have tried
to influence a change in such a
discriminatory policy, but the best
our professed friends have seen
fit to offer is that we merge our
distinctively different identity
with that of Puerto Rico.
The present Resident Commits
sioner of Puerto Rico, Mr.. Isern.
stated with regard to Senator
Buffers Bill that it is not work
able unless the Virgin Islands be-
come a part of Puerto Rico; and
that, with due credit to his de-
mocratic thinking, he said would
have to be decided by the people
of Puerto Rico as well as the peo-
pie of the Virgin Islands. We need
not 60 any farther as to what the
decision Of the people of the Vir-
/ gin Islands will be if that ques.
ton should ever arise for a vote,
and I think that the people OF
Puerto Rico have enough of their
own problems without having
anyone in Washington turning
over our problems to them.
Officials in our good neighbo1
island Of Puerto Rico have been
willing to extend a friendly hand
to us; our people have recipro-
Gated likewise as a good neigh
Dor. We want to keep it that way
Our people would be no more in
favor of amalgmating the Virgin
Islands with Puerto Rico than
the people of Puerto Rico would
be in favor Of amalgamating their
island with Cuba, even if Cuba
were a territorial possession of
the United States. And l think
that the argument would be much
stronger on our side.
We do not question the good
intention Of Senator Butler, as !
