DR.. BENZ. May Tells Omegas What
United States Must Do To Maintain
Leadership in the World

Dr.. Mays declared that every
great civilization in the world,
from the Egyptian, $500 years be-
fore Christ, the Syrian, on down
through the Babylonian, Persian,
Grecian and Roman eras had
reached a certain peak and then
declined. "How", he asked, could
the United States avoid topping
from the h g which it oc-
cupied as the leader ofthe current
periad Of civilization"
DR.. May pointed out three i'm
peratives. First he said that we
must do everything possible to
preserve the peace of the world.
He described the conflict Of ideol-
ogies between Russia and the
United States declaring that he
hated Communism because it
meant enslavement from the top
to the bottom. Secondly, he said,
we must find a way to solve the
problems Of unemployment. Near
ly half the population Of the
world is near starvation. Thirdly
we must erase, all kinds Of racial
discrimination. Hunger, despera-
ton, segregation and confusion
are fertile areas for the growth
of Communism, the speaker said.
Communism is an idea", said
DR.. Mays. "The only way to de-
stroy one idea is to replace it
with a better idea", he continued.
owe must make democracy work.
If she cannot make good on these
premises which are the founda-
ton of democracy, then God have
mercy on the souls of the people
in the United States"
Cong. William l.. Dawson, an
other speaker, appealed to the
| Omegas and all other fraternities
and sororities to take upon them
selves the responsibilities of shap-
! ing the thinking of our people.
He pointed out thatthe masses OF
people have a right to look fo1
leadership in social, business and
political affairs to those who have
had the good fortune and privil-
eye to secure training.
Dawson said the race was going
to be judged not by the actions
and achievements Of the except
!ional few who had attained the
heights but by the attitudes Of the
masses and that it was the duty
Of university trained men and
womento accept the responsibility
of leadership with all fraternities
and sororities working together.

CHICAGO (ANP)- Before a
throng of Omega Psi Phi frater-
nifty members holdin g their seth
annual grand conclave and a
host of interested Chicagoans and
visitors at Corpus Christi church,
Dr.. Benjamin E. Mays, president
OF Morehouse college delivered a
thrilling and though provoking
address Wednesday night. Discus
sing What The United State
Must Do To Maintain Her Posi-
ton Of leadership in The World,
DR.. Mays analysed the role of
this country in world affairs to-
day and then pointed to her pre-
carious position in attempting to
preserve that leadership.
DR.. Mays said that the United
States is the greatest nation in
the world in most every field
which it is possible to measure.
From a military point of view,
he asserted that not only had we
never been defeated in wal but
that we were today spending 20
billion dollars q year on defense
here, in Europe and in other sec
tors abroad. He pointed out that
the nUited States had won every
war in which she had ever been
engaged from the Revolutionary
war, the conflict Of 1912, Mexican
Civil, Spanish American and the
two recent world wars and yet
we were confronted with an un-
easy peace.
Economically, the United States
far surpassed the position of any
other country either today or in
the history ofthe past, he declar-
ed. We have the. highest standard
of living of any nation even
though there were 10 million Am
erican families whose total income
was below $4,000 and whose total
assets were not more than $500,
leaving some 80 million people on
the fringe Of uncertaity and want,
he said.
Politically this country possess
es greater personal freedom than
any other nation unless it be Eng
land or Switzerland or the Scan
dinavian countries and yet there
are great areas Of this nation the
South particularly, where political
freedom does not exist, the noted
educator declared.
Internationally the United States
holds leadership for less than half
the people in the world are liter
ate, he asserted, while we have
the largest assembly Of universit-
les, colleges, secondary and pri-
mary schools ofany people on
earth.

Cleaning Plant zoning
Called Discriminatory

Charges that a zoning regula-
ton affecting small dry cleaning
plants discriminates against small
businessmen were heard today by
the Zoning Commission.
The regulation, adopted last
June, prohibits establishment OF
plants within rs feet of a resi-
Dental district or any residence
in first commercial areas.
Opponents point out that one
room occupied as living quarters
over a store within IS feet of a
proposed plant would prohibit its
installation.
Harry S. Wender, one of the at
torneys representing manufac-
turers Of cleaning equipment, de-
clared the regulation has Grip
pied a growing industry"
He pointed out that the on
premise plants are efficient and
economical and permit speedy
service.
He also pointed to the large
volume of cleaning work done in

Supporting the need for regu-
lation was William H. Cary, jr.

Transit Radio Firms
Assai| Opponents as
Public Interest Foes

Transit radio interests today
branded opponents of radio pro-
grams on streetcars and buses as
dramatically opposed to the pub
lie interest, convenience and ne
ceSSity."
The Capital Broadcasting Co.,
operators of Station WWDC-FM,
which originates the broadcasts,
joined with Transit Radio, Inc,
and the Washington Transit Ra-
dio Co., in asking the Federal
Communications Commission to
throw out complaint against
the programs
The complaint was in the form
of a recently filed petition by
Washington attorneys Franklin S.
Pollak and Guy Martin demand
ing that the FEC revoke the sta
tion's broadcasting license.
The statement filed today ac-
cused Messrs. Pollak and Martin
of "draping their objections in
cloak of constitutional phrases
which have no applicability tc
the factual situation"
The statement claims that the
entire issue of transit radio has
been fought out before the Dis
trict Public Utilities Commission
which ruled in favor of the
broadcaSts.
The Martin-Pollak petition also
asks the FEC to take action or
questions which are beyond its
Jurisdiction, according to the
statement.
