u. S. Voice.
Seen Aided
BY Tourists

The State Department is max
ing some headway with it's cam
paign to bring the truth about the
United States to the people
abroad but the success of the pro-
gram depends a great deal on
Americans themselves, Rowland
H. Sergeant. Assistant Secretary
of State for Public Affairs, de-
clared yesterday.
"We are democracy, and we
have voices" Of America" Mr..
Sergeant told the Woman's Ma
tional Democratic Club. I'm GER
tain that what is done by the or
.ganized efforts of Government is
only fraction Of the influence
the United States can have on
other countries.
THE thousands Of American
tourists who go abroad each year
and the G.I.s, all leave an image
in the minds Of foreign peoples.
Our dress. our press, our movies,
our magazines, what the Presi-
dent says, and even what organi-
cations say whether they are the
Daughters of the American Revo-
luton or the Woman's National
Democratic Club, all shape the
conception these people have of
America, he declared.
Giving picture of what the
peoples of the free world already
think of us, Mr.. Sergeant said:
They like and dislike us at the
same time. often for the very
same things"
The Assistant Secretary of State
pointed out that whereas Ameri-
cans are liked for their technical
progress, practically and genero-
Sity. they are also criticized for
materialism. conceit and lack Of
culture.
Il think this is Just the inside
and outside Of the middle" he
said, "for we know that our ma
terialism is the result of our
technical progress, but that 1t
doesn't represent our way of life
which is grounded on the spiritual
basis on which our country was
built"
On the great issues Of peace
and security, however. Mr.. Sar-
geant said, the peoples of the free
world don't think we're the war
mongers the Communists say we
are land feel that u. S. military
strength is the best guarantee
that the Soviet Union will not
declare an all-out war.
They are apprehensive however.
that "bungling" of our military
preparations, particularly in
Western Europe, may result in
another war, he said. They are
fearful too, he added that I'VE
may return to isolationism and
|endanger their security"
Mr.. Sergeant was introduced
by Mrs. David Lloyd, wife of the
Administrative Assistant to the
President, and program chairman
for the day.
Mrs. Fred w. Morrison, club
president, introduced head table
guests who included Mrs. Dean
Acheson, wife of the Secretary
of State; Mrs. Willard L. Thorp,

The story goes that Chain
Weizmann recently described his
role as a constitutional President,
who can use the influence of his
office, give advice, but has no real
political power, to visitor from
abroad in this manner. Pulling
out his silken handkerchief, he
held it in front of his guest and
said: I'm very proud of this little
piece of cloth-it's the only thing
can stick my nose into into
everything else, it's Ben Gurion's
nose"

Dear Editor:

The very policy, the DO Moth
thing" policy, that Boris Smolar
recommends in his article, is one
which was followed for centuries.
Each generation of Jews suffered
persecution in one form or an
other because of their failures
to strike back.
The thought in publishing the
''Troublemarkers" is not to per-
petuate for all eternity what the
Anti-Semites say about Jews, but
to enlighten all peoples so that
they will know who the Rabble
Rousers are, and how to seek
them out. Today their diabollcal
TRADES are against the Jews, to-
morrow other religions and races
and, eventually; they seek to de-
stroy our own form of govern
ment for their own perverted
advantages of autocratic powers
Would Mr.. Smolar say it is
wrong for the Bible to immortal
ize those Jews prosecuted in
ancient Egypt, or, the story of
Haman? Is it wrong to perpet-
uate those happenings for all
eternity, and to designate Holy
Days to enlighten all peoples
that through it all we did sur
vive because we believed in one
God and a decent way of life?
Then is it wrong to point out we
still have our Hamans and Pha-
roahs,' only this time their scheme
is to eventually control every
thing we as Americans, regard
less of race or creed, hold dearer
than life itself? ADJ. of Bnai
Birth believes in the philosophy,
which time and events have
proven as right, that an enlight-
ened people, is people prepared
to fight for the rights of all man.
kind with weapons of knowledge
and intelligence.
l believe that Mr.. Smolar
should take an active part In
ADJ, to really learn of their
activities when he mentions posi-
tive work. He would find that
ADJ. uses two-edged sword,
one positive, the other negative
He will find that ADJ. was
instrumental in convincing bust
ness organizations and univers-
tiles to eliminate discriminatory
questions in application blanks as
inimical to the American way Of
life. He will also find that il
took years of ADJ. effort before
Jews were given resident entry
in hospitals. The education OF
prejudiced peoples is not yet com
plete, and continues.
1t is high time that we as {
people with a long record of ac-
complishments in the Arts anc
Sciences, with a proud heritage
stop burying our heads in the
sand. 1t is time we stand up anc
strike back when bigots hur
their vicious lies against us. L
is imperative that we point ou
these peddlers of hate who woulc
sell their souls to destroy oul
American way of life, for theil
own perverted advantages.

EDIT Il ri

Judging by what we already seen, the 1852 cleo
ton will be big year for the hate merchants Already
millions pieces of literature preaching hatred and
spreadng bgotry been handed out and sent thru
the mails all this happen in country founded
on the ideal that all created equal may be hard
ito understand for many of Only country where
freedom of speech guaranteed could this happen And
freedom of speech freedom of speech for EVERY
ONE.
But remembering that the truth will always come out
in the end let us sell short the intelligence OF the
American people This nation which has survived the XXX

training in this sort of thing True the rabberouser makes

TO Replace Euclid
Street Cars Sunday

With Sunday, April 9th set as
The date on which busses will re-
place street cars on the Euclid
Avenue line of the Cleveland Tran
sit System, CTS passengers of
these lines are asking "How does
this changeover from street car
to bus effect us?"
Under the present plans the
answer is every little?."
First of all, there will be no
change in the operation of the pres
ent express service, express fares
or express schedules.
AS for the No. 6 buses which
replace street cars, the schedule
will be stepped up since buses will
operate with more frequency. 1t is
understood that 65 buses will be
in operation on the Euclid avenue
and Euclid-Hayden lines.
No. buses will carry the same
fares as street cars and they will
operate between the Public Square
and Windermere station, just as
the present street cars have done.
School and weekly passes will
be used as they are now.
Contract for removal of the
twelve streetcar safety zones be-
tween Belmore and Lakeview will
be awarded to the M. P. Platten

current three-year contract for
water with the City of Cleveland
City Finance Director G. T. Ap-
thorp explained to the City Com

the new water rates were first
proposed, East Cleveland and %
other suburbs believed them to be
too high. The suburbs employed
E. B. Roberts, a consulting engi-
neer, who made a two-year rate
study and negotiated with Cleve-
land, resulting in a total million
dollar saving to the cooperating
suburbs. Cleveland also accepted the
Roberts report.
The Commission promptly ap-
proved bill for the $1542.77, the
city's share of Mr.. Roberts fee.
They agreed it was worth that
to save $71,000.

to replace equivalent police equip
ment. 1t also approved purchase of
five Cleveland Ignition Co. alter
