Mrs. John R. MurdOCk
Closeup Of The Woman Who Won
Recognition for Capitol Artist
By Frances Willard Kerr

40 N G RESSMAN'S wife.
~ archery champion, author,
Ph. D., Capitol guide and
Brumidi admirer-all these
titles fit Mrs. John R. Murdock
of Washington and Tempe,
Ariz. Mrs. Murdock is the
guiding spirit behind the cere-
mony to be held in the Capitol
next Thursday honoring Con-
stantino Brumidi.
The President, Vice Presi-
dent, Supreme Court Justices
and members of Congress have
been invited to this event,
which represents the culmina-
ton of Ia years effort on Mrs.
Murdock's part to obtain recog-
milton for the Italian-born
artist who spent Is years
decorating the Capitol and
who died in 1880 as the result
of a fall from a scaffold while
painting the frieze of the
rotunda.
Mrs. Murdock became inter-
eSted in Brumidi when she
came to Washington in 1897
as the wife of Arizona's only
tat that time) Representative.
She located Brumidi's un-
marked grave in Glenwood
Cemetery, painted the fence
that surrounded the plot and
in June, 1850, succeeded in
having Congress enact a law to
provide a bronze stone
marker for the grave. When
no one else came forward to
write a book about the neg
lected artist, Mrs. Murdock did
that, too. Constantine Bru-
midi: Michaelangelo of the
United States Capitol" is a
handsome volume, illustrated
in the rich, glowing colors of

the original works that adorn
the Capitol.
On June 2, Signor Alberto
Tarchiani, Ambassador of
Italy. bestowed the Star of
Italian Solidarity on Mrs.
Murdock for furthering Ital-
ian-American cultural relations
through her Brumidi biog-
raphy.
Myrtle Cheney Murdock was
born in Navoo, H., and grew
up in Kirksville, Mo. AS soon
as she finished district school
at IS, she put up her hair and
applied for a job as teacher.
How old are you?" asked
the head of the School Board.
How old do you think 1
amp" she countered.
He allowed she looked at
least 19 and gave her the Job.
Later. she attended Missouri
State Teachers College and
there met young John Muir
dock. He wanted to marry her,
but she wanted a career and
took a job in Tahlequah, Okla,
teaching Cherokee boys.
Mr.. Murdock let her teach
two years. then followed her
to Oklahoma. This time she
promised to marry him, but
when the head of the school
learned she was leaving, he
said: Rather than lose you,
I'll take your young man sight
unseen" So they married
and both taught in Oklahoma.
In 1914, they moved to
Tempe, where MIR. Murdock
became dean of the Teachers
College. AS soon as the chill

Indifferent 10 IHOSe LnlnRS winch
directly or indirectly affect our
lives and the lives of those we
love is an admission of being un-
feeling, irresponsible, unintelligent
or COWardly.
Indifference never wrote great
works, nor thought noble
thoughts, nor invented useful ma
chimes, nor reared fine buildings,
nor breathed sublime music, nor
painted inspiring pictures, nor I'M
dertook heroic phiIanthropies.
But Indifference is responsible for
much of the trouble and unhappi-
ness in the world.
Indifference creates the poor
student and the mediocre worker.
1t destroys initiative and all Gre
alive thought. The Indifferent per-
son chills the very atmosphere
through which he walks. Indif-
ference is one of the surest ways
of losing our friends. 1t is the
chief impeachment to a better I'M
Outstanding of each other and i'm
proving human relations. Love
dies because of indifference. In
difference empties the churches. 1t
is the cause of all bad govern
ment
Corruption in community and
national life as brought to light
by the Kefauver hearings and the
narcotics investigation in New
York are the products of indif-
ference of American citizens. The
greatest enemy of America is the
indifference of those who reap all
of it's benefits but take the atti-
tude, let George do it,"
George Matthew Adams points
out that Indifference to the sim
pie, basic virtues that make for
honesty, good will, moral power
and decency is what fills our jails
and corrective institutions and
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1951-07-20

keeps our policemen and criminal
hunters busy day and night"
An employers indifference to a
good workers value means the
loss of that worker sooner or later
to wiser competitor. The indif-
ferent worker is the first to 60
when work slows up. What we are
Indifferent to we eventually lose.
Make no mistake about that.
Many fail because they are in
different to living a useful life. No
one succeeds unless he takes his
work seriously and makes a real
job if it,. No one can be happy
without taking an enthusiastic
interest in what he has to do.
One of the greatest problems
which remains unsolved is the
problem of Indifference The writ
er believes the best way to COM
bat Indifference is to arouse in
terest in our community and ma
tional life. And then make people
realize that the cure for all social
and national ills is in their own
hands, if they will only think and
act for themselves, using their full
rights as citizens and the power
of press, radio and television. The
use of television and newspaper
publicity has been very effective
in bringing home a sharp focus on
criminal trials and investigations
which the public should know
about.
Jesus could be indifferent to
what happened to Him. But He
could not be Indifferent to what
happened to His Fathers house,
or to His Fathers children. What
happened to His Fathers kingdom
was a matter of deepest concern
to Him.
1t should be to you.

National Council Of Negro Women
Founder, President Emeritus
BeIhune Goodman College Says:
As long as We have special prob.

service for us all. in ehAnnsling

proper credentials and gained the
confidence of the most violent ma
tionalists in the Arab states. He
entered Palestine just before the
British Mandate ended, with a
large army of Arabs who were de-
termined to drive the Jews out of
the land.
Having lived among them, Carl
son knew of the poverty and feu-
dal oppression of their people, and
of the violent hatred for Jews,
Americans and British alike, which
their leaders had aroused in them.
Thus he gave to the world the
first factual and unbiased account
of the Arab-Israel war which
have seen written from the point
view of the Arabs. His book, "Cai-
70 to Damascus, is enlightening
and, at this particular moment,
timely.
Egypt's recent refusal to join
the projected Middle East Com
mand, and all her future activities
on the world scene, are no mystery
in the light of what Saleh Harb
Pasha, former Egyptian Minister
of Defense, said to Carlson:
"We hate Communism because
we are Moslems, but a counsel of
despair will carry the day when
Britain asks for our help next time
We will fight with Russia
against both England and the
United States to achieve our in
dependence. We will be Com
munists. We will be anything.
But we will be independent"
The undeniably sorry plight of
the Arab refugees is more clearly
understood after we read that "the
flight-psychosis which prevailed
among the Arabs was mass
hysteria induced by poor morale
and by fear of revenge and retri-
button for the Arab lootings and
massacres from 1920 on. Arab
leaders implied that those who
refused to leave were pro-Zionist;
such people were threatened with
reprisals.
''The exodus figure of 100000 or
more Arabs is sheer propaganda, a
