Around Town With
The Editor

AS was expected, l. Keller Shank,
president of the Board of County
Commissioners, has filed his certifi-
cate of candidacy for nomination to
the House of Delegates, subject to
the Republican Primary in Septem-
Der. Shortly after he was reelected
to the Board four years ago, Shank
made the statement, that if he ran
for any Office in 1850 it would be for
the House of Delegates, so, in filing
on Tuesday, he was just keeping his
word.
Also filing on Tuesday, were Com
missioners Clarence V. Eldridge and
Joseph Hoffman, both of whom are
running to succeed themselves, sub
ject to the Republican Primary.
These three men, all of whom have
excellent records, both as private
citizens and county officials, should
have no difficulty in being elected.
l wish there were a lot more
people who were as enthusiastic
about the Globe Independent as my
new secretary, Mrs Martha Mowen.
On opening my mail yesterday
morning, l found couple of sub
scription renewals, and to my amaze
ment, Mrs. Mowen said that she
would like to take out a subscrip
ton to the Globe too; and when l
asked her who she wanted to send
it to, her answer was, myself"
That's real loyalty.
Being a newspaper man, natural
ly talk to people wherever / am,
about this and that, so when l was
in Myrtle Beach the last few days
looking over the baseball club, l
talked to quite number of people
in the Hotel regarding conditions at
home and abroad. The men and
women who l talked to were from
all walks of life, but strangely
enough, in almost every instance,
they were not as much concerned
with the possibility of war with Rus
STA as they were with the present
hullabaloo about communism at
home. The consensus of opinion
was that there is altogether too
much publicity given to this So
called Senate Observation-Disclosures
as far as l am concerned has de-
veloped into nothing more or less
than political fight. Most people
seem to believe as l do-that
communists or communist sympa-
thizers have wormed their way into
government jobs, but if the people
I talked to over the week end are
right, and they seem to represent
pretty fair cross-section, nothing
has been gained by continually blast
ing about it in the papers and over
the air, and by doing SO, keeping the
people uneasy, which is one of the
things the communist party works
for.
l personally have the greatest re-
spect in the world for J. Edgar Hoo
yer, the head of our F. B. l., and
feel certain that his department, if
left to operate the way they should
operate (to certain extent in sec
ret), would do more to clean out the
Reds than any Congressional inves-
tigation committee that ever existed.

Grasshoppers Again Held
Major Problem in West
BY the Associoted Press

Scientists of the Bureau of En-
tomology expect grasshoppers to
be a major problem in the West
ern States again this year.
DR.. S. A. Rohwer, assistant chief
of the bureau, told the House APP
preparations Committee the grass
hoppers are on another upgrade
cycle" which began in 1947. But
he thinks the cycle can be broken.
To combat the expected grass
hopper invasions, the bureau has
asked Congress for $2.2 million
for the six month period from
March Is to September Is of this
year, and an additional $2.5 mil
lion for the fiscal year beginning
next July /.
IF we are successful in the
crop season of 1850, and if the
funds are provided" DR.. Rohwer
said, 1--WE are going to take the
heart out of the grasshopper in
festations in range land areas that
may later move into croplands,
following the pattern of earlier
outbreaks.
1--WE can, if we are successful,
treat million acres of range land
this year. We can expect that
grasshoppers will be on the down.
grade next year."

plauded and some wept as Chang

for survival and recovery were
unity. teamwork and complete
sacrifice of personal interest for
those of the state.
Democracy Called Goal.
IF this is achieved, am con-
fident of the eventual defeat of
the Communists" he said. ITO
this end I once again offer all I
have and all I am until my death"
The President, who resumed
office on March / after 13 months
Of retirement" insisted his goal
for China was democracy and
democratic processes.
only through democracy can
we rejuvenate the nation" he
said.
After the 45-minute speech
Chang continued his efforts to
nominate Gen. Chen Cheng, for
mer Formosan governor, as Pre-
miere. There is opposition to
Chen in the Legislative Yuan.

unworthiness for the job. is be-
lieved interested in keeping only
two of the present eight members
of the cabinet. They are Foreign
Minister George Yeh and Eco
nomic Minister c. K. Yen.

elder son, Gen. Chang Ching -kuo
might be named Minister Of In

troll of the police.

Improved Housing
Needed.

TUsKEGEE (ANP) While
more than 10 million American
families are now living in dwell
ing accommodations provided for
under the Federal Housing admin
istration there is still an acute
need for improved housing con-
dition for minority groups, de-
clared Roland M. Sawyer, admin
istrative officer for Minority
Group Housing, FILA.
Speaking at the dedication pro-
gram for the Simmons Gardens
Apartments Development in Tus-
kegee, Alabama, last Sunday,
Sawyer pointed out that this pro-
ject marked another milestone in
the securing of realistic results in
the FILA program to provide adj
equate housing that is available
for minority group occupancy"
He mentioned the urgent need
for rental housing among minor

He mentioned the urgent need
for rental housing among minori-
ty groups, stating that the amount
built in recent years does not be-
gin to meet the total require
ments. A good rental project in
which Negroes can participate
and where the rents are scaled to
prevailing income levels in an area
often serves to demonstrate the
Existence of a further market and
leads to the building of addition

The team from the San Fran
cisco Olympic Club won the team
title yesterday in the National A
U track and field championships.
The San Francisco outfit won
only two first places : by defend
ing Champion Gay Bryan in the
hop, set and jump. And Fortune
Gordien in the discus. But it piled
up enough points in the other
events to nose out the New York
A-C by three fifths of a point.
The final tally gave the Olym-
pic club 70 and three-fifth points.
The New York A-C 70. The Los
Angeles A-C was third with 81
and four-fifth points.
Dick Attlesey was the individual
star in the 95-degree heat at the
University Of Maryland's Byrd
stadium. The six-foot, three-inch
Attlesey running for the Los
Angeles A-C set a world record
of 10 and sixteenth seconds in
winning the 110-meter high hurd-
les. Attlesey beat Jim Gehrdes of
Penn State by three yards. A
pretty blonde embraced the win
ner as four-thousand fans cheered
and whistled. Two Defending
champions from the New York A.

that the ANA made the move to
win the support of the National
Medical Association (Negro) over
to it's anti-socialized medicine
drive.
