Opening Of D. C.
Catholic Schools
"RumOr''
WASHINGTON CAMP

WASHINGTON (ANP)- A
statement tothe effect that Catho-
lie schools in the Washington arch
diocese have been told to open
their doors to Negroes was discred-
tied and labelled a "rumor" here
las week by the Interracial Council
of Washington. Not only that, the
council also discounted a state
ment that a Catholic "flying trio"
was touring the country working
for the betterment of racial re-
lations.
The two statements were made
recently by the Rev. FIR. Joseph
F. Cantllion, assistant dean, St.
Peters college, Jersey City, dur
ing an address before an inter-
racial forum here. The minister,
who said he was speaking as a
member of a "flying trio, touring
the country in a private plane to
lecture against discrimination, said
the archbishop of the Washington
diocese had called in certain
people" and the segregation mat
ter was thrashed out.
He opened his statement by say
ing authorities at one of the
schools had said qualified Negroes
had never applied for admission.
Fellow members of the "flying
trio" group are Archibald F. Clio
yer, Negro civil engineer, New
York city department of public
service; and Julian Reiss, white
Businessman of Lake Placid, N. Y.
Time Reiss plane is the one being
used on the tour.

will guarantee the greatest amount
of benefit to largest majority Of
people.
A spark-plug like Mrs. Douglas
in the U. S. Senate might go a
long way toward speeding up the
pace of this tortoise-moving body
on the action Of beneficial legis-
lation.
This 96-man body of lawmakers
now has only one female member,
Mrs. Margaret Chase Smith, who
was elected to the Senate last
November. Since women believe in
getting things done, another female
member of this great body might
put new blood in the action veins,
and add a new stimulus to it's
achievement capacity.
The 49-year-old Helen Douglas,
a native of Boonton, N. j., is the
mother Of two children, Peter
Gahagan, age Is, and Mary Helen,
age 10. She also has one step
son, Gregory, age 20.
She received her education in
Berkeley School for Girls in Brook
Ign, N. Y, Capen School for
Girls, Northampton, Mass, and
Barnard college, Columbia, uni
verstiy, of New York.
She entered politics in 1910
serving four years as Democratic
National committeeman for
California. During that same
period she served as vice chair
man for the Democratic State
Central committee, and chairman
of the Women's division. She has
also served on the National Ad-
visory committee for WPA, and
a member of the Board Of Gov
ernors of California Housing and
state Committee of NYA. She is
Planning association, and was ap-
pointed by the President to the
Voluntary Participation committee,
OCD. She was elected to the 10Th
Congress in 1914 and in 1916 she
was alternate delegate to the UN
Assembly.
Mrs. Douglas is the daughter Of
the late Walter Hamer and Lii
liam Rose Gahagan and the great
great granddaughter Of William

Helen Douglas of California, one
of the most forceful contenders
for human rights and wife of the
amiable movie star, Melvin Doug
las, announced she will run for
the U. S. Senate next year.
For the five years which Mrs.
Douglas has been a member of
the u. S. Congress she has made
a record almost indispensable,
by her militant fight, her drama
tic speeches, and her enthusiastic
appeal for the rights Of minorities.
She is not only a contender for
the civil rights of Negroes, but
has waged a constant battle for
better living and working conditions
migratory workers, for better
wages and shorter hours for labor
ers, for the unionization of farm
workers, for the rights Of Japan
ese-Americans and Mexican work
ers, and for a reduction in the cost
Of living which affects the house
wives of this country.
Mrs. Douglas made history two
years ago when she employed a
Negro secretary in her office,
being the first white representa-
tive to employ a Negro girl in
that capacity. Since she broke the
ice, a number Of congressman
have now employed colored clerks.
Soon after the war when Me-
gro soldiers were attacked by a
Southern senator for what he
termed unbecoming behavior a.
broad, it was Mrs. Douglas who
came to their rescue and spent
a considerable amount Of time
making a study of the record of
Negro soldiers and released a re-
port on the efficiency of these
soldiers, their loyalty to their
and the faithfulness in which they
discharged their duties.
Although Mrs. Douglas is a
Democrat, she was elected to the
Congress by both the Democrats
and Republicans in the assembly
districts A, IS, 62 and ga in Los
Angeles County, Calf.
A professional singer, stage
star, and screen actress, Mrs.
Douglas said she was attracted to
politics by her great admiration
for the courage and humanitarian
ism of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt.
Unlike the Ivory Tower politician,
Mrs. Douglas gets to the grass
roots of every piece Of legislation
presented, loking at it from the
standpoint of the average rank
and file citizen.
An arden "New Dealer and a
firm believer Of a "fair deal" for
every American citizen, Mrs.
Douglas studies thoroughly every
piece of legislation, analyses it,
and supports those measures which

Extension of community health

valuable to all children is being
urged by the American Dental As
ISOLATION.
Dental diseases, particularly
tooth decay, are affecting more than

dren are receiving proper dental at
tention.
Dentists are agreed that the only
effective method of combating dental
diseases is to start with children;
to control and prevent dental de-
fects before they become serious
problems later in life.
For that reason, the American
Dental Association is opposing esta-
blishment of q national system of
compulsory health insurance in this
country. Children would get less
attention.
Association officials point to the
present compulsory health insur-
ance system in Great Britain. There,
q sound system for providing dental
care for school children is falling
to pieces because the government
program concentrates major atten-
ton on q repair program for adults.
The same would be true here, dem
fists say, pointing out that any
system which destroys the emphasis
on the prevention and control OF
Of dental disease in children is not

Wants Farm Marketing
Problems Solved First

but not in the loan of a subsidy.
We need advice and expert know
how on marketing. We need gov
eminent aid to get our produce
to the consumer at a price he can
afford to pay, yet profitable to
the growers. @#&
Many, many people in the
United States alone, have mall
nutrition, and can not afford fruit
under our present system of dis
tribution, even as the farmer can
not afford to produce it under the
present price project.
Until our marketing and dis
itribltion problems are solved,
billions for reclamation will mer-
ely aggravate an already intol-
cradle condition. Price supports
and Brannan's Plan may put off
the day of reckoning. They are
not the fundamental answer.
