REPEALED HEALTH
 LAW OUT JUNE 20

A bill passed by the Territorial Senate in March 1851 becomes ef- fective June 20 and repeals a sec ton of the Alaska Health Code requiring annual physical exanin- ations of food handlers, Dr. c. Earl Albrecht, commissioner of health, said today. a sos rA -'sAsi
 Routine annual physical exarnirl- ations for food handlers have been discontinued in most of the states, he explained, because actually they give a false sense of security from disease. The fact is that a commun- icahle disease could be contracted, and spread, by the applicant im- mediately after successful physi- cal eXamination-yet he had just been issued a health certificate which was valid for one year."a ,
 Alaska now has strong and ef- fective laws and regulations for the control of communicable disease for the protection Of health of both the food handlers and the public they serve,' Dr. Albrecht said, and therefore repeal of the old law was recommended by the Board of Health"
 He said that understanding and practice of disease prevention by foodhandlers. management and the public are more productive of good health than laws and regulations. ,"

FLAG DAY

Flag Day. which will be observed tomorrow throughout the and Territories marks the one hundred seventy-fourth birthday of the American Flag It was on June 14 1777 that the Continental Congress resolved ". that the flag of the United States be 13 stripes alternate red and whte that the union be 13 stars white blue field representing a constellation. :"
 As the Union grew, the flag was changed to add one star and stripe for each new state but this soon made the flag unwiedy and out of proportion and this practice was discontinued in 1918. The de- sign reverted to the original 13 stripes and stars were added to represent the states.
 Let us display these Stars and Stripes from the housetops and from all our public buildings tomor-

"The Camel" Snarls

Murray "The Camel Humphrey. A graying gangster of the Capone era but still one of the nations top tough guys, snarled defiance at the Senate Crime Committee the other day in what was probably the most shocking show of contempt in Sen- ate history.
 The Chicago hoodlum was sum- moned behind closed doors after ducking Senate subpoena for SIX months. However he showed the same lack of respect for the law makers that he has shown Tor law enforcers all his life With sheer on his lips, he snapped back at the Senators but refused to answer their questions.
 t"You know, the longer you fel- lows work, the better we understand what our rights are,' taunted the man who is rated among the big 3 of the Chicago underworld and who used to be Al Capone'a finance officer.
 Finally Wyoming's not-easlly- riled Senator Lester Hunt got en- ough of Humphreys insolence Hunts patience snapped as ne started questioning Humphrey about his family. including his daughter $ schooling.
 q could answer that" growlec the mobster, out I am going to refuse to answer because l thlnk you are asking the wrong questions.
 What is yoIr daughters first name?" Hunt inquired evenly
 T don't see where my daughter has anything to do with this hear- ing" snapped "Tae Camel
 Tt is not lor you to pass on tie type of questions I ask,' bristled Hunt. If you don't care to answer just say so."
 Would you lise to have people asking questio..s about your fam ily?" Hum ci.:cy flung back.
 You are not questioning the Senator. The Senator is question ing you. You are the one who is the witness" Hunt replied sharply

 Family Causes of Crime
 You are going to be cited tol contempt. I can tell you that, snapped the Wyoming Senator ". We are trying to find out something about your home life We are not going to solve this problem until we get to the very basis of what causes crime in the United States"
 Then you are under the impress sion that I am a criminal, is that right?" snarled Humphrey sarcas- tically.
 q refuse to answer .he question because it might incrininate me, v Hunt mecked the mobstel s favorlte phrase.
 "The Camel' was even more surly in tangling with New Hamp- shires God-fearing Senator Charles Tobey.
 Some of us think you could open up and tell us an interesting story if you would." prodded Tobey
 Isn't that your opinion'" sneer- ed the mobster Its not mine"
 With all this crime business that is going on in Chicago and across the nation, don't you think you ought to tell us all you know about the sordid character of the under world?" pressed the New Hamp- shire Senator.
 Don't you think that Chicago is just as clean as any other city? Are you insinuating that our city is not clean?' blurteG Humphrey.
 That was just an illustration, explained Tobey, then tried again Wont you take the opportunity to tell this committee all you know shout crime and the criminals that are carrying on illega. business Ill our country?"
 You heard my statement" snaf- led Humphrey, referring to his opening statement to the commit tee that he wouldn't answer ques- tions that might incrlmlnate him.

they tell me that they are not at all disturbed by the Governments controls on beef.
 These men came to Washington and talked it over with Mike Di Sale. They want to make money like everybody else, but they are putting the national interest above selfish interests
 If the anti-price control lobby had its way and all price controls were abolished, the. American con- surner' wouldn't be the only victim, the President emphasized. Many dairy and poultry farmers would be shard hit, he explained, since veal thy cattle interests could outbid them for feed grains, which are in short supply.
 ~ The same feed is required for chickens and dairy cattle as for beef cattle, Truman said, and beef ]. producers would be willing to pay almost any price to fatten up their cattle for market, knowing they could pass the extra cost on to con sumers if there were no controls.
 "The trouble is we in Congress are not hearing from the consumers on . this" remarked Rep. Paul Brown of Georgia. We are hearing 8 lot from the other side, which is against controls, but the consumer isn't saying very much"
 "Oh, yes, he is,' responded Tru- man. I'm the representative oi the consumer"

Ten Negro Physicians
Now Cancer Fellows

NEW YORK = There are eight
Negro physicians holding clinical
fellowships of the American Can
Ger Society, in addition to two
others who are research fellows, it
was reported by DR.. Charles S.
Cameron, medical and scientific
director Of the American Cancer
Society, in a communication to
tho Ancient Egyptian Arabic Or
der Mobiles Of the Mystic Shrine
(Shriners).
The letter, addressed to DR.. Ray
mond E. Jackson, head Of the
Shriners, recalled the contribution
Of $4,000 awarded the Cancer So
ciety by the 1850 Convention of
the Order, which met in Boston.
At the same time, Mefford R..
Runyon, executive vice-president
of the Cancer Society, praised the
Shriners for their assistance in
the fight against cancer, congratu-
lating them "for their health edu-
-cational program, particularly the
fact that they have selected cam
Ger as an enemy that merits their
best efforts in time and money"
Although the Shriners' gift had
no strings attached, DR.. Cameron
pointed out, he thought the Or
der would be interested in infor-
nation concerning fellowship
grants to Negro physicians, and
plans to increase their participa-
ton in the fight against the dis
ease.
The Negro physicians holding
clinical fellowships supported by
the American Cancer Society, are
located at the following medical
institutions: Two at Jefferson
Medical College in Philadelphia,
two at Memorial Cancer Center
in New York, one at the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania Hospital, two
at Columbia University, and one
at the University of Virginia Hos
pital in Richmond.

Baseball Coins In Popularity

The Fourth of July has passed into history which high
lighted another milestone in Negro progress most notice
ably, in the field of baseball
There is question about it. Baseball wears the un
disputed Knk of Sports and the sparkling per-
formance of Negro players makes the game aurng
than On Wednesday boys held the spotlight in
all games in which they participated.
Recently there two unprecedented events in major
league baseball Three Coored stars-Jackie Robinson,
Oreses Mnoso Sam Jehroe the base steaer
and in Giants game it's three Negro players on
base at the same time.

didn't see how it could happen, but in this, in
everything else the longest lane has turning.

Dear Sir:
I am writing you from the
sunny hills of Tennessee. Every
time I come down this way, I find
different south to what I left.
have just returned to my
room from a visit in the office of
DR.. A. M. Townsend, who is the
secretary of the Sunday School
Publishing Board of the National
Baptist Convention, U. S. A., Inc.
This building is named in honor
of the late DR.. Elias C. Morris, who
served as president of the National
Baptist Convention, Inc, twenty
seven years.
The spot on which this great
publishing house stands is both in
teresting and historic. On this
spot, in one of the rooms of the
CID commercial hotel which stood
here for many years, the consti-
tuition of the State of Tennessee
was written. It is also said that
here on this spot, slave raiders
met and sold Negroes as chattel.
What contrast! For on this
spot where Negroes were sold, now
stands beautiful, modernly
equipped publishing house, owned,
operated and controlled by 4 mil
lion Negro baptists, towering to-
ward the blue vaulted sky, unfurl-
ing it's stars and stripes to the
gentle breeze expressive of free
dom. This building with it's equip
ment is now valued at one. and
one-half million dollars. Instead of
the white man offering Negroes
for sale on this spot today, the
Negroes are offering the world
some of the best literaturs ever
known to man, for sale.

TRAIGHT
AHEAD"
BY Julius j. Adams

New York City = Global - One
hundred aspirin tablets (59c) were
selling here this week at four cents
a bottle as the price war which
began two weeks ago, continued.
The price-cutting battle was
touched off by a recent ruling OF
the United States Supreme Court.
Contrary to the. general belief,
the Supreme Court did not rule
on the right o "a manufacturer to
set retail prices, or on his right
to make contract with retailers
to maintain those prices.
What the court did say, how
ever, was that the contracts were
net binding on those retailers who
refused to sign them.
A number of New York stores
refused to sign the minimum
price" contract, but had resold
the merchandise at the fixed
prices, on demand of the manufac-
turer who could refuse to deliver
goods to the retailer who re-
fused to sign a contract.
It was on this point that the
Supreme Court based its ruling.
On the other hand, the courts have
held that a manufacturer does
have a "value" in the label or
name on his product and that re
may be injured if the product is
sold below "a given price.
In New York state the Minimum
Consumer Retail List, based on an
entirely different concept, pro-
tects the public and small busi-
nesses against dangerous price
cutting It invokes its police power
to protect. the public welfare.
In establishing the Minimum
Consumer Resale Act, the State
did not consider at all the manu-
facturers' rights to fix his prices,
but said, "It is the declared policy
of the state that it is necessary
to regulate and control the manu-
.facturer, sale, and distribution
within the state of liquor and wine
for the purpose of fostering and
and promoting temperance in
consumption and respect for and
obedience of the law.
Under the provision of this act,
no manufacturer or wholesaler of
liquor or, wine shall sell, offer
for sale, selicit any order for, or
advertise any liquor or wine, the
container of which bears a label
stating the brand or name of the
owner or producer, unless a sched-
