League of Voters
Held One of Best
Lobbying Groups
By Frances Kuhn

An authority on lobbying told
members of the District League
of Women Voters yesterday that
their national organization is one
of the best lobbying groups in the
country.
Speaking at luncheon meeting
held at the YWCA, Mrs. Olga
Moore Arnold, author Of I'll Meet
You in the Lobby" and a former
lobbyist, compared the work of the
league to her own in that it con-
centrates on the voters in an effort
to change undesirable legislation.
Mrs. Arnold credited the League
OF Women Voters with correcting
legal errors in practically every
State in the Union.
Recalling her own work as a
lobbyist, Mrs. Arnold said, when
ever I told people what T did for
a living, I was looked upon as if
I had said I was the third girl
in the second row at Minsky's and
children were told to leave the
room" She defended lobbying as
an honest means of correcting un-
fair National and State laws.
Mrs. Arnold said that her work
as a lobbyist in the campaign to
relax the oleomargarine restric-
tions took two and half years,
and included three tranScontinen-
tai trips for conferences with edi-
tors, lawyers. consumer groups and
the voters. "Organized consumer
interest and organized patriotism
accomplished our purpose" she
declared.
Lobbying is one of the most
exciting things that can be DONE"
Mrs. Arnold said and expressed
the hope that she would return to
1t soon. She is now with the State
Department.
Yesterdays meeting included a
report by Mrs. David Gordon on
the status of the discharge petit
ton of the Home Rule bill in the
House. Mrs. Gordon pointed out
that the petition, originated by
Representative Kennedy, Demo-
crat. of Massachusetts, lacks only
40 signatures. It is designed to
force the bill out of the House
District Committee for action on
the floor of the House.
Mrs. Irving Gumbel, finance di-
rector of the league, and Mrs.
William Levin outlined the f1nan-
cial problems of the local group.
Mrs. Philip Owen, director of pub
lie relations, presided.
Mrs. Arnold will speak before
another league group at 8 o'clock
tonight at the AVG clubhouse,
1751 New Hampshire avenue NV.

BY the Assoeiated Press


SANTA MONICA, Calf, Dec.

a child custody dispute with his
ex-wife. Jean Wallace.
Tone and Miss Wallace were
divorced in 1948. Tone was given
custody of their two sons, Paschal,
7. and Thomas, S. Miss Wallace
recently sued Tone for custody
of the children, seeking $1,100
month support.
Superior Judge Orlando H.
Rhodes, after a trial marked by
numerous references to nudity,
ruled in favor of the actor. He
emphasized, however, that he was
making no findings of unf1tness
against Miss Wallace.
Miss Wallace's attorney, s. s.

her apartment with a man known
only to him as "Corky." Asked
how she was dressed. he said,

WASHINGTON d. c.. Oct. IA
(ADC)-As the full effects of the
McCarran Act become more appar-
ent here, there is a growing feeling
that this is a catch-all kind of law
which does everything to every
body.
Leaving aside the better publicized
anti-Communist provisions of the
law. the measure also has an effect
upon almost every phase of this
nations immigration and nationality
laws.
Virtually all such provisions in
the law were added i'm conference
and without prior study by stand
ing congressional committees, a
surprising abdicatiOn Of responsible
lily by the committees to the hand
full of House Senate conferees who
drafted much of the bill in con-
ference and without hearings.
Reviewing only some phases" of
the new law, which inevitably must
come up for serious restudy by Con-
gress the JACL Anti-Discrimination
Committee pointed out that one sec
ton alone may have the startling
effect of barring virtually all immi-
grafton. including DPS, into the Uni
ted States.
That section says upon notifica-
ton by the Attorney General that
any country upon request denies or
unduly delays acceptance of the re-
turn of any alien who is a national
citizen, subject or resident thereof"
American consular officers in that
country shall be notified not to issue
any immigration visas to nationals
citizens, subjects or residents of such
country" until the country in ques-
ton accepts the alien.
Immigration attorneys both within
and without the government are
agreed that the provision is likely
to have serious international roper
cussions.
Exactly how to interpret the
provision is troubling the Immigra-
ton and Naturalization Service
which so far will say officially
only:
Were giving it some thought"
However. one service spokesman
pointed out there are today probably
more than 1000 aliens in the United
States subject to deportation. OF this
number. the far largest group is de-
portable for moral or criminal rea-
sons rather than political charges
Because the countries OF their origin
refuse to accept them, they are per-
mitted to remain in the United
States.
The service spokesman said he had
no immediate knowledge of how
many countries these aliens formerly

countries on earth.
