The council elected DR.. William

cal College of Virginia, as chair
man to succeed DR.. H. B. Mulhol-
land of the University of Vir-
ginia Hospital.
It also called for assistance in
bringing two Negro hospitals in
the State up to American Medical
Association standards so that
Negro physicians may serve their

hospitals are the Community

Northeast Restaurants
Beer License Plea Weiqhed

The Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board today has under consider
alton the application of Constan-
tine Vasiliou, proprietor of the
Stanton Restaurant, 401 C street
NE, for a license to sell beer and
light wines in his restaurant.
At a hearing yesterday, Mrs.
Elizabeth Ramey, principal of the
Peabody School, which adjoins
the restaurant, protested the issu-
ing of the license on behalf of the
school and the Board of Educa-
ton. She said many of the $50
children who attend the school
visit the lunchroom for snacks.
The Stanton Park Citizens As
sociation. through its officers, also
protested the issuing of the Ii
cense.
But for the first time in ABC
hearings, more residents appeared
in favor of granting the license
than against it.
The board will hold a hearing
Monday when Mrs. Mary Regina
Miller, proprietor of Jeans Res
taurant, 1922 M street Sc, will
be asked to prove that she is a
proper person to hold a liquor
license. The board members said
they have received many COM
plants about the restaurant.

Atomic Energy Is Not Enough
National Defense Also Calls for Human
Energy, Which Means Health and Education

would seem the part of wisdom
therefore to reduce the number
that must be rejected. That can
only be done by improving the
Nations health and providing
more education.
OF course, if the war is going
to come next week and is going
to end very quickly, nothing
would be gained, so far as i'm
mediate national defense is
concerned. But our defense pro-
gram is not based on those two
possibilities. It is based on the
probability of war being fore
stalled for a year or two or three
and of war lasting several years
if it does occur.
In World War II the draf
boards rejected 650,000 men
and boys because of educational
deficiencies. In other respects
these men and boys were quail
fed for armed service. They
were in good health. They were
physically strong. But they fell
short in schooling. They were
either illiterate or had attained
less than f1fth-grade status.
Counting $4,000 men to a di-
vision, that means we rejected
the equivalent of 40 combat
divisions or twice the number
of divisions we used in the
South Pacific theater of war,
the area from Honolulu to Aus
tralia to Tokyo and the islands
between.

Man Gets ; 10 9 Years
For SHOOTING Woman Twice

A man who shot and wounded
a woman five times while out or
bond on charge of shooting and
wounding her once, yesterday was
sentenced in District Court to
serve a total of three to nine years
on two charges of assault with a
dangerous weapon.
He was Norman w. Chambers,
"a, colored, of the 5400 block of
Central avenue Sc. He had
pleaded guilty to both charges and
was sentenced by Judge James w.
Morris.
On September 2, he had shot
and grazed the scalp of the victim,
Gertrude Robinson, 33, colored,
as she entered the yard of her
home in the first block of K street
NE. according to authorities.
Then, on October 20 he shot and
wounded her five times with a
small caliber pistol on the street
in the 1000 block of North Capitol
street.
The defendant and victim had
broken off a friendship before the
shootings, the court was informed.

President Truman never forgets
a person who is kind-or unkind-
to his daughter.
The President presented an
award to Paul Wooton of the
Chiffon Publications last night at
a dinner given by the Society of
Business Magazine Editors. He
recalled that Mr.. Wooton had been
a neighbor when the Trumans
first moved to Washington in 1885.
Paul Wooton was a neighbor
"a real neighbor,' he related.
Margaret was 10 years old then
but I hope you won't spread
that around. Paul Wooton lived
in the apartment below us. And
he was as kind to Margaret as
anybody could be.

the ruff1ed temper of the Ameri-

to doubt the efficacy of the
United Nations.
Many of the nations which in

still drawing-free assistance
from the American people feel
that for the sake of face" they
should support our mild pro-
posals at Lake Success to de-
clare the Chinese aggressors.
But even these Western Eu-
ropean countries urge caution

seriously" before they cast their
affirmative votes. In the course
of protracted arguments with
his colleagues one of the Ameri-

that of Great Britain. The Brit

Lowell MeHett:

People are funny. That in
cludes the American people. If
the President says that we need
to spend $12 billion next year
in the development of atomic
energy we say it must be so; we
can't afford to let anybody get
ahead of us in atomic energy.
But If the President says we
need to spend a few hundred
million in the development of
human energy, we say that is
non-essential and socialistic be-
sides; nothing to think about in
terrible times like these.
Yet the day is not in sight,
regardless of the atom bomb or
even of the projected hell bomb,
when human energy will cease
to be the real basis of national
defense. Men still have to do
most of the fighting, and that
will be true for a long time to
come. The biggest problem OF
our National Defense Establish
ment right now is where to find
the needed number of compe-
tent young men to do the fight
ing. That's what the argument
over the 18-year-olds is all
about, as well as the argument
over the deferment of fathers
and other breadwinners who
fought in the last war.
Human energy, applicable to
national defense, depends on
health and education. The
armed forces reject the un-
healthy and the uneducated. It

The statement was made by Ed

director of the American Forest

"a banquet of the Graphic Arts
groups, commemorating National
Printing Week, which ends today.
The banquet was held in the
Mayaower Hotel.
Pointing out that the term "free
press is not to be limited to news
papers, Mr.. Butler said the free
right to the printed word is par
ticularly Vulnerable to attack by
these advocates of ideologies in

dom"
Theirs is not frontal. ak
swinging attack and smashing of
presses" he said. Theirs is an
insidious, subtle and sly method
IOf undermining that is hard to
attack"
Because of it's freedom in this
country, the press has developed
a power incalculable in its
strength and force. Some have
tried to belittle, to under-rate, to
discount the power of the press,
but they're merely whistling in the
dark. Just let the free press de-
eide not to print the name or
statements of any currently i'm
portant individual. for a period of
time and see what happens to the
career of that individual"

contend that lumber interests are
