Custody Of 7 Boys
Up 10 Juvenile Court
As Writ Is Dismissed

Juvenile Court has been left
free to determine the question of
custody Of two boys, who have
been wards of the District Board
OF Public Welfare for the past
year.
The way was cleared yesterday
for a hearing on the custody queS-
ton in Juvenile Court, when Dis
trict Court Judge Burnita Shelton
Matthews dismissed habeas
corpus petition through which the
boys mother, Mrs. Myrtle Lam
bert, "a, of Alexandria, Va, had
sought to gain legal custody. The
boys are Robert S. Lambert, S, and
Raymond, 4.
The Juvenile Court hearing is
scheduled for tomorrow. Mrs.
Lambert's counsel, Ralph r. Sachs,
said late yesterday he will ask
Juvenile Court Judge Edith H.
Cockrill for jury trial on the
custody question. The court is to
determine whether the board shall
retain custody.
Jurisdiction Challenged.
Mrs. Lambert contended, in the
habeas corpus hearing before
Judge Matthews, that District
authorities lack Jurisdiction in the
custody question because of the
two boys we're brought here from
Virginia. They had been turned
over to District authorities by an
official of the Alexandria Depart
ment of Public Welfare. it was
argued.
Judge Matthews held that To-
cal authorities do have jurisdic-
tion, because the children's father,
Raymond C. Lambert, was domi-
eiled here when the children were
turned over to the local board.
This. she held, also made the Dis
trict the legal domicile of the boys.
Judge Matthews ruling may ELI
inmate the question of whether
District Court or Juvenile Court
would have final Jurisdiction.
Two weeks ago, District Court
Judge Walter M. Bastian, who now
is away on vacation, sent word to
Judge Cockrill suggesting that the
Juvenile Court hearing on the Gus
tody question be postponed for two
months. pending a District Court
hearing on the habeas corpus writ.
At that time, Judge Cockrill
agreed to postpone the custody
hearing in her court for two weeks
to August 90. But she informed
Judge Bastian that she believed
Juvenile Court had exclusive juris-
diction on the custody.
Plans to Remarry.
The Juvenile Court hearing NAV
determine whether the two BOYS
are to remain in legal custody of
the Board of Public Welfare until
they are 81.
Mrs. Lambert, part-time
waitress, says she separated from
her husband. Raymond C. Lam
bert. in 1949. She plans to bring
divorce action against the husband
and marry a man who is fond of
the children, she said in one of
two habeas corpus papers before
the court.
On the stand yesterday. she tes-
tified she also has a 1la-year-old
daughter, who is living at the
home of a friend. Mrs. Lambert
estimated her weekly income, in
Guiding tips. from her work at a

New Synthetic Drug,
Similar 10 Morphine,
Being PeddIed Here

A synthetic drug akin to NOR
phine has made its way into the
illegal market here on the heels
of a shortage of the real thing,
police revealed today after arrest
of a woman they said had eight
decks" of the new narcotic.
Held on a charge of possession
of narcotics was Miss Lillian A..
Callahan, So. of the 1400 block Of
Thirty-fourth street NV, the
woman who in 1885 shot and killed
big Eddie" Killeen, a big-time
gambler here.
Drug Not Definitely Identified.
Police said they could not iden-
tify the new drug definitely until
further chemical tests are made,
but that preliminary tests indi-
cate it to be a synthetic of a
morphine-type drug.
There was some speculation
that it may be methodane or

that the chemicals used in syn

the imitation drugs could be made
by ANY third-rate chemist in

Synthetic Is Habit Forming.
He told reporters later that the
synthetlcs give the same "kick"
that comes from the morphine
derivatives, and that they are as
habit-forming as the real drugs.
Police, however, were inclined
to the theory that it may be

a substitute for morphine by the
Germans during World War II.
when their supplies of opium were
shut off.
Miss Callahan was arrested at
her home yesterday after police
chemists made preliminary an
alySis of the drug.
She had been involved in an
accident when her automobile
failed to make a turn Saturday
night and crashed into a 3-foot
stone retaining wall on Fourteenth
street at Emerson street NV.
Narcotics Detective Hears Call.
Probationary Detective Guy w.
Holcomb, jr.. of the narcotics
squad. was in the area and heard
the accident call. When police
opened Miss Callahan'S purse to
establish her identity, Detective
Holcomb saw what he thought
might be drugs.
A corporation counSel's hearing
will be held September 7, to deter
mine the cause of the accident,
police said.
Miss Callahan'S name figured
prominently in the news when,
on November %, 1885, she shot
and killed Killeen at his home in
Brookmont. Md. At that time her
name was Mrs. Lillian Maddox.
Police said Miss Callahan had
once served a prison term on a
narcotics charge. Killeen was
identified with numbers and book
making operations here.
A manslaughter charge against
her was dropped shortly after the
defense opened on April 8, 1886.
Prosecuting attorneys said. in
dropping the charge, that their |
evidence had shown that she /
acted in self-defense.

No Prospects For Civil RIGHTS

The following is an article written by
Arnold Aronson, Secretary Executive Com
mittee National Council for a Permanent
FEPC, which the writer thought would be
of great Importance to our readers, par
ticuarIy at this time S. S. Taylor.
The increased strength of the Republic
can-Dixiecrat coalition in the Forthcoming
SIND Congress holds little promise for the
enactment of effective federal civil rights
legislation. Although the House may again.
as it has so often in the past pass anti
lynching and anti-poll tax bills, both of
these measures are likely to be pigeon-holed
in hostile Southern chaired Senate subcom-
mittees. In the case of FEPC, the situation
appears to be just the reverse. House action
is likely to be stymed by Congressman Bar
den of North Carolina, in line to become
Chairman of the Committee on Education
and Labor, whereas Senator Murray, new
Chairman of the Senate Labor and Public
Welfare Committee, can be expected to help
steer FEPC through that body.
Favorable action by the Senate COM
mittee, however, will merely bring FEPC
face to face once more with the inevitable
Southern filibuster. The new Senate will in
clude 81 of the men who voted against clo-
ture on FEPC in the last session, as well as
such bitter opponents of the civil rights pro-
gram as Senators-elect Smathers of Florida
and Smith of North Carolina. Thus, there
are 33 virtually inflexible votes against clo-
ture, or more than enough under the Wherry
rule to prevent FEpC fom being brought up
for debate, even if every other member of

tive attitude makes 1t difficult for him render the best posi-
BILE service to the people Of Arkansas also afraid that the
Editor is somewhat juvenile presumptous statement that
impossible Tor me to understand how the Negro about
things He doesn't know what capable knowing or what
actually know On the other hand not being Negro do
not make claim of knowing all The Editor also saws: 1--WE
would like very much to be thankful for the opportunity to fight
for human decency and brohery love- That long long way
off, and our patience is not strong enough keep down our
bitterness Just what in the devil does the Editor think he is
fighting for? Is he juvenile that he would have us think
that he is merely venting his penup bitterness nothing
more? Bitterness can be found practically any downtown
street corner But constructive programs for human decency
brotey love somewhat in certain regions of
try, and must be nurtured with And if know anything
bitterness must be Channed into creative beneficial endeavor

played to the high heavens here for his treat
ment of the non-whites, is no sure sign that
he is impressing the non-whites throughout
the world, To them he is stupid bigot with
hot air where he should have brains. And
every time he raises his hand to commit acts
of inhumanity to his darker brother in his
home land it may pass swiftly over our
horizon of memory but it is recorded IN lar
away territories on an indeble pad.
If we are to come into democracy and
make good our boast, we must first start at
home. America must be able to control A
merica. The American white man must make
the supreme sacrifice of getting along with
his brother. We know this is not easy, de-
spite our Christian atmosphere and our
years of protested civilization. But if this
is not done, we fear for the worse.
Making sacrifices is nothing new to the
Negro. He is accustomed to suppression and
denas. He is accustomed to lodging bombs
eating hot lead and other methods of brutali-
ty concocted by warped minds but to the
white man it will be hell So for his benefit
let us hope he can change his way of living

AS 1851 approaches, we readily admit
that things for the future do not look any
too bright. The new year is going to be a
wear for sacrifices. Sacrifices must be made
II we are to continue our boast of demoe-
racy.
II commentators on world affairs are
right in their summaries America faces
perils that are destined to shake the foun-
dation upon which she was built, unless,
grave decisions are made. And made in the
right direction.
There are many who will pass the en-
trance of 1851 as another year, for we all
know that America, with her Reservoir of
brains and manpower has been able to cope
with any situation that confronts her. But
in spite of what we have done with manpower
and brains, we have not been fully able to
sell the rest of the world on our type of
democracy. And we feel that will serve to inn
pede our effort for world peace.

theory for an American foreign policy that
has come out of this crisis. He advocates
that we quit trying to be the policemen of

were not put here to judge, try and convict

enough to straghten out about ourselves to
keep us plenty busy DEFEND AMERICA

GIs Wed Jap Girls At
Rate OF 1OO-MOnth

TOKYO - American G.I.'s are
marrying japanese girls at the
rate Of about 100 a month and the
Army is disturbed and wondering
how long this will continue.
There have been approximately
/ 200 such marriages in the last
eight months with the results that
the Army is setting up training
clinics for the japanese brides of
American soldiers.
The Army decided to set up the
training clinics for the japanese
brides to teach them American
cooking, some English and Amer
lean manners.
Here is how Capt. A. j. Thomp-
son, public information officer of
the 315th Air Division, with head
quarters here, puts the case:
1.-THE day will come when the
boys will be taking their japanese
brides to the states and the Army
wants to do everything possible to
make the marriage a success.
eff the bride knows how to
cook and prepare American dishes
and has some knowledge of Gus
toms and manners in the states it
will make things a lot easier for
her soldier husband when they
get back to America.
"Some people don't think these
marriages are going to last; that
many of the boys will return home
without their japanese wives. Only
time will tell, but in the meantime,
the Army is going to do all it
can to make things as easy as
possible for the newlyweds."
Thompson revealed that the
Army has been Tightening up the
regulations covering these mar
riages for the last two months by
insisting that the prospective
bridegroom produce his birth GER
