DC. Youth, 17,FoiIed
In Ho|dup Of Cabbie
with Neck Of Bottle

"A 17-year-old youth today
faced Juvenile Court action on
charges of attempting to hold up
a wary cab. driver with the top
part of a liquor bottle.
The cab driver, Robert Joseph
Cain, 40. of 1902 Newton street,
Bladensburg. Md. said he picked
up the youth at Seventeenth and
Pennsylvania avenue NV. last
night and was directed to go to
the 2100 block of Nichols avenue
Sc.
Near the destination, Mr.. Cain
told police. the passenger put
something solid in the back of
my neck" and ordered the driver
to hand over his change carrier
and wallet. Mr.. Cain said he gave
the youth the change carrier
with $3.50 in it and an empty
wallet. He had $128 in his pants
pocket. his wife said later.
He told police the youth then
ordered him to keep driving" and
asked to be let out in front of
Frazier'S Jewelry Repair Shop at
1921 Nichols avenue Sc.
When the cab stopped, Mr.. Cain
said, he spotted the bottle top, but
no pistol. AS the youth jumped
out of the cab, so did Mr.. Cain.
The driver said he grabbed his
passenger and yelled for help.
Shirley Frazier, IA. daughter of
Birket L. Frazier, the jewelry shop
proprietor, heard the cry and tele-
phoned for police. The shouting
also attracted an off duty police
man, Pvt. M. F.. Wesley of the
traffic division, who came running
with Luther Cox from across the
street, where they both live at 2214
Nichols avenue Sc.
The youth was arrested by Pvt.
Wesley and the change carrier was
recovered on the sidewalk. Police
said the boy has juvenile crime
record.

the Mayo diagnosis.
THAT shows you what the Lord
can do," he said.
In Atlanta, the doctor who first
examined Carolyn said today he
would stand by his original dag
nosis until he heard directly from
the Mayo Clinic and had an op-
portunity to examine the child
again.
He examined Carolyn on De-
cember 20. She was sent to Grady
Hospital in Atlanta for X-ray

of examination. When it was all
over. clinic doctors said there was
no evidence of cancer.
They said there was an inf1ama-
tory reaction within the child's
eyes which has impaired Carolyn's
sight. They indicated it can be
corrected by treatment.
When given the favorable re-
port, the weary mother whispered,
thank God" and then moved her
lips, obviously in prayer. Mrs. Pur-

Mayo doctors said it wilInot be

prescribed treatment has pro-

objects now. The doctors recon-

Something Wrong at Orange

Relief authorities in Orange County, Virginia
and in Richmond ought to show more than
casual interest in the story of fight and robbery
which occurred the other day at the county seat
The disturbance itself was not so unusual. The
Associated Press account said that several thugs
beat up a man when he refused to lend them
$1,000 out of 81 400 bankroll he was carrying
What the Orange County Welfare Board
should be curious about is why man with 81 400
In his pocket should be on the relief rolls For
the victim of the robbery had come to town to
collect his monthly relief check of $2650 He
had been given the check without question only
short time before he got into an argument
with bystanders over the loan proposition.
At a preliminary hearing before a magistrate
the county welfare superintendent testified that
the robbery victim had been on relief since the
spring of 1913 The superintendent when queried
by an attorney for the alleged assailants, could
give no explanation to why a man on relief
would have so much money in his pocket. The
welfare authorities should make it their business
to find out. They might find it profitable to
consult with the Welfare Board of Fauquier
County, where an investigation has disclosed a
number of cases of unworthy or ineligible relief
clients. Surely there is something wrong with
relief system which pays checks to man who
carries bulging wallet and whose apparent
amuence attracts persons in quest of loans"

C1X years ago, Russo American rela-
~ tions. if not altogether harmonious.
at least were not acrimonious. The
Muscovite bear appeared to be trying
then to walk like man. Uncle Sam
was following Theodore Roosevelt's
policy of speaking softly. but was not
carrying a big stick.
Contrast affairs as they were then,
and as they are now.
Six years ago Russia wanted a $S
billion United States loan and was
making polite gestures in the direction
of handout. It was at that time (Sep-
tember IA, 1946) that Senator Claude
.. Pepper, Democrat, of Florida, now

Stain told the Senator, ''your country

adequate food, clothing or housing dur

would be suicidal for us to do anything
but devote all our efforts and resources
to giving the people the things they
have so long done without We have
oemobliized million men already, de-

tional cuts in our army"
1t was the possibility of American
loans for help in Russian reconstruc-
