trail Labor Union, and Mrs. Belle
Everett of Kenton, vice-chairman
of the Kent County Democratic

The convention elected the three
Democratic presidential electors
early in the afternoon session, act
ing on the recommendations of the
three county caucuses which were
held shortly alter the delegates
gathered.
Presidential Electors
The electors are: E. Ennalls Berl,

The afternoon session also went
through the formality of officially
adopting the party name and en-
blem as they will appear on the
ballots.
The delegates and visitors at the
Field House of the Dover High.
School found the walls of the con-
ventiOn auditorium decorated with
shields pTOclaiming various accom-
plishments of the CaTvel adminis-
tratiOn, much as the Chicago con-
ventiOn hall was decorated with
similar statements of national pro-
grams advanced by the Democrats.
Among the shields were some
which said:
"195O-$S,OOO,OOO Veterans Mill
tary Pay Disbursed."
'1949-52"-$35,0O School Pro-
gram"
"Carvel First in Nation in APP
pointing Women in Government"

partment Established.
"1949-House Bill PIP Repealed

"1951-State Supreme Court Es-
tablished."
Banners Over Platform
The delegates faced a stage over
which two huge banners were hung.
One said, Don't let 'em take it
away, and the OtheT Keep gov
ernment with the people,"
Huge photographs of Carvel,
Bayard, Stevenson, Sparkman, Tru-
man and Roosevelt were on the
sides and the rear background Of
the platform.
After the initial session of the
convention a recess was declared
to give the three convention COM
mittees an opportunity to work.
These are the committees on per-
manent organization, credentials
and resolutions.
The resolutions committee went
to the school library, where Frank
IODOnnell, who was chairman of
the Democratic Platform Commit
tee, read the tentative draft. This
was approved plank by plank with
minor revisiOns. Lacey c. Wilson
served as chairman of the resOlu-
tiOns committee.
When the committee returned to
! the Field House the draft of the
! platform was read in full and was
adopted by the convention without
a dissenting vote.
The convention got under way at
I2:4O p. m, after being delayed by
the Kent County caucus. That
caucus took longer than the other
two county caucuses to select it's
representative on the three con-
ventiOn committees, although there
was no dissensiOn in the selection.
The invocation was asked by the
Rev. Paul Taggart, assistant pastor
of Holy Cross Catholic Church,
Dover. There were about 500 per
sons attending when the conven-
tiOn started.

immigration Board
Set Up by Truman
To Study Policies

President Truman yesterday setI
up a seven-man Commission onl
immigration and Naturalization,
headed by former Solicitor Cen
eral Philip B. Perlman ito study |
and evaluate the immigration and
naturalization policies of the Unit |
ed States"
The President created the new
agency as an aftermath of pas
sage by Congress over his veto of
the controversial McCarran-Wal
ter Bill, codifying the immigration
and naturalization laws.
The President bitterly assailed
the measure at the time it be-
came law, declaring that it would
discriminate against many races
and prevent the United States
from caring adequately for thel
displaced persons problem.
He urged, in connection with
his veto, that Congress set up al
commission to study the whole
matter. but nothing was done. Inl
his statement today announcing
the new commission, he expressed
the hope that it's study be COM
pleted before re-convening of the
next Congress.
Sets Up 3 Main Goals
He set up three major goals
for the commission, saying It'll
should give particular attention
to:
l. The requirements and adj
miniStration of our immigrationI
laws with respect to the admis-
sion, naturalization and de-natu-l
ralization of aliens, and their
exclusion and deportation.
2. The admission of immigrants
into this country in the light of
our present and prospective eco-I
nomic and social conditions and
Of other pertinent considerations.
3. The effect Of our immigra-
tion laws and their administration.
Including the national origin quota
system, on the conduct of the for
eign policies of the United States,
and the need for authority toI
meet emergency conditions, such
as the present over-production of
parts of Western Europe and the
serious refugee and escapee prob |
lens in such areas.
Stresses Refugees Plight.
In his statement the President
pointed to grave and "heartrend-
ing problems in the continual
stream of refugees and escapes
from the Iron Curtain countries
into Western Europe"
He said that humanitarian
considerations, as well as the ma
tional interest require that we re-
assess our immigration policies. u
Serving with Mr.. Perlman will
be:
Earl G. Harrison, widely known
Philadelphia lawyer who formerly
was commissioner of immigration
and naturalization. He will be vicel
chairman.
Msgr. John O'Grady Of Wash
ington, secretary of the National

language OF Gaelic required IN
the schools but other subjects are
taught in Gaelic so that some
day all the Irish will speak
Gaelic instead of that hated
word-English. OF course, the
rest of the world won't be able
to understand them. The quiet
hammered, charming, strong
man of Ireland, Prime Minister
Eamon De Valera. has an idea
that even Americans don't like
to say they speak English.
Except for its world-famous

it's fair. They've discovered
that they can even breed lions
there now in case you're looking
for one.
Speaking of meat, the English
fly to Dublin periodically to
stock up on this almost-non-
existent item in England.
There's a sign in the Dublin
airport that reads: "Take home
some Irish beef steaks, cut and
trimmed, 4 shillings each"

his hand into his coat pocket
and taking it out again as
though he had something in
it. "Oh." exclaimed the guard.
'Put Sean T. right back where
you had him!"
The Irish cling to their old
time lore, too. The present
owners of beautiful Howth Cas-
tie on the outskirts of Dublin,
the Gaisford-St: Lawrences,
have an extra place set at their
table for every single meal. It's
custom that's been carried on
there for centuries-ever since
two gypsy girls or maybe they
were pixies were turned away
from the door one night when
they asked for food and subse-
quently wreaked their revenge
by Turing away the son of the
house. They said they would

Ice Cream Profits

LONDON, Nov. 90. British
Movie Magnate j. Arthur Rank

at the box Office in the last IL
months but cleaned up 1.151 600
pounds ($3,222.S .S00) selling ice
cream to moviegoers.
The nations leading film pro-
ducer- distributor let Magistrates
Court in on this trade secret yes
terday when he appeared to ex-
plain why one of his company's
London movie palaces-the Gau-
mont-allegedly failed to exhibit
enough British-made second fea-
lures.
The law requires that at least
Is per cent of second features
shown in British movie houses
be home-produced.
The hearing was adjo rned
until next week after Mr.. nix
declared that. although British
made first features are generally
of good quality, the standard of
production for second features
was not high. The Gaumont
which regularly shows a double
bill, has been losing money fol
years, he said.
