PORTLAND, Ore. - CAMP -
In a city which has in recent
years been touted as an example
of democracy at work because of
the spirit in which its citizens
took to the creed of equality for
all, the very ugly spectre of pre-
JUDGE reared its head recently.
Principals in the situation were
a 17-year-old White sophomore
coed from the University of Ore
gon, a Negro student also at the
university and the local chapter
of Gamma Phi Beta sorority.
The coed, whose name was
withheld upon request, was CO.

the Negro student. According to
the coed, sorority chapter Off
GERS and members of the alumnae
association gave her hte option OF
ending her friendship with the
Negro student, who is pursuing
architectural studies or leaving
the sorority house.
Rather than discontinue her
friendship, she moved into Hen

last week by the Oregon Emerald
university newspaper, in an edi-

sorority and alumnae group.

dating him regularly, and boy

IN SAN QUENTIN 6 YEARS
CALF. ORDERS
RESTUDY OF
ARSON CASE

SACRAMENTO - (ANP) -
Gov. Earl Warren of California
last week ordered an investiga-
ton of the case of George Hol-
man, now serving in his sixth
year in San Quentin for alleged
arson.
Holman was convicted on what
his supporters call flimsy evil
dence of a known police charact-
er. He was accused of setting fire
in 1914 to the New Amsterdam
hotel, a fire which caused the
death of % persons in San Fran
cisco.
The San Francisco Chronicle, a
local daily, has conducted an in
vestigation of the case which
brought out evidence that Hol-
man may not be the guilty per-
son.
Gov Warren has placed Walter
Gordon, an attorney, in charge of
the state probe of the case.
Chief witness against Holman,
John Anderson, is now dead. AM
other witness, Miss Gertrude
Jordan, is now in Mississippi.
Holman had said he was in the
hotel with Miss Jordan at the
time of the fire.
Gordon will handle the inves-
tigation as head of the California
Adult Authority. Since being
confined to San Quentin, Holman
has been a model prisoner. He
has continuously avowed his in
nocence.

The Junior and Senior Prom of
Douglas was held on Friday
night, May Is, 9 pm. at the
Douglass auditorium which was
beautifully decorated. Over 800
Guests enjoyed the highlights of
the evening. A short spicy pro-
gram was rendered by the Junior
and Senior classes. The Juniors
and Seniors wore beautiful even
ing gowns, which were in my
opinion designed in Paris. The
only word you can say, they were
beautiful.
Refreshments were served in
the patio and everyone enjoyed
a delicious repast. The evening
was spent in dancing. If we can
have more evenings like this the
citizens of this community will
enjoy them more often. A grand
evening was enjoyed by all pres
ent.
Hats off to Mr.. Theodore
Sands for this splendid program
which he sponsored and his CO.

MucArthur's Father
Had Troubles, Too

Gen. Douglas MacArthur's father
Gen. Arthur Macarthur, embroiled
himself in a bitter dispute with
civilian authorities so years ago
when he was military governor of
the Philippine Islands, which the
US. had just acquired from Spain.
William Howard Taft arrived in
the islands as head of presidential
commission charged with estab-
fishing civilian government in the
Philippines.
Although President William Nc
Kinley was under heavy pressure in
Washington to establish a civilian
government as soon as possible,
Arthur MacArthur's command took
the point Of view that only the army
could do a proper job Of restoring
order and control.
When Taft arrived, Macarthur
coldly refused to see him.

split over the issue of which is the
best way to deal with Communist
aggression in the Far East.
But it is not, it cannot be, a fatal
split. The doubt that has been
lurking behind our thinking and
our attitude on the question of how
best to fight the monstrosity Of
world communism has been
brought plainly into the open and
is clearly defined.
There is no longer any reason
for anyone-be he statesman, mill
itary man, farmer, storekeeper or
factory worker-to deny the exist
ence Of that doubt. Now it can be
talked about and it can be elimi-
mated.
That is the great service that
President Truman and General
Macarthur have unwittingly per-
formed for the nation and the free
world. They have managed to get
all the cards on the table.
The answer, still to be found, is
there somewhere.

of many powerful and successful

been their capacity to capture the

This makes for power and au-
