In his talk, DIR. Mullendore sketched the
history of the Republican Party, its basic
philosophy of government, and what it
has meant to America as whole and the
Negro in particular. He discussed the mat
ter of excessive taxation, wastful spend
ing, an inadequate foreign policy, all of
which he charged responsibility to recent
Democratic Administrations. The Profess
or promised that, if elected, the Republi-
can Party's first step would be to halt
wasteful spending and work intellgently
for the reestablshmeht Of morally and
financially sound America. Touching brief
ly on the matter of civil rights, Dr. Null
lendore advised his listeners that the Re-
publican Party had always believed in up
holding the dignity of the individual. He
1dd it would continue to do SO if returned
to power. AS to his yarty's civil rights pro-
posals, the speaker said he was in full
agreement with the suggestion that this
delicate matter be left to the individual
states to solve without Federal interview
ton.
Speaking for the Democrats, White
briefly reviewed the party's history from
its beginning. He said the Democratic Paw
ty had usually been regarded as the par
ty of the common people because it's basic
philosophy of government is that meeting
the needs of the majority is the first duty
of government Comparing the two pdr-I
ties the speaker said history amply proves
the Republican Party as being the party
of big-monied interests. White observed
that the basic reason underlying the Or
ganizing of the Republican Party back in,
1860 stemmed from a desire on the part
Of Northern capitalists to curb the rapid
rise to economic power of the South, the,
stronghold of the Democratic Party of that
day. That because of it's use of slave labor,
Southern Planters were fast becoming
powers to be reconed with in the finan-'
cial world. White continued that becG use
Of these circumstances, Northern big bus
mess was becoming increasingly hard
pressed to cope with southern plan ers
once these planters started selling their
cotton, tobacco and grain groups on Euro
pean markets in exchange for manufac-|
tured goods.
White advised his listeners that thesel
developments were more or less the directl
cause of the conflict between the Statesl
and that the Negroes emancipation wasl

Facts And Figures
OF Good Will


actly SO per cent of the 229 physicians
who returned the ballots gave an unquali-
fled mo-" while 43 per cent gave an I'M
qualified yes Still even this is great
deal better than many of our cynics would
expect.
The general average of percentage for
all II southern and border states which
now practice segregation was as follows:
Those in favor of admitting Negro doc
tors to their county medical societies, II
per cent. Those opposed, "a per cent.
Qualified approval, per cent.
In Virginia, 68 per cent gave an I'M
qualified mo-" and per cent gave quail
fled approval. Thus, as usual, Virginia
did not distinguish herself as liberal
state. She is definitely no better than av-
erage. In Maryland, for example, with 526
returned ballots, 80 per cent gave an un-
qualified Eyes"
Moreover, alert readers will note that
even this GO per cent of hberality was not
demonstrated in actual votes cast by Vir-
ginia doctors at the September meeting
of the Medical Society of Virginia. Here
only sc white physicians--or 55 per cent
of those present, voted to admit Negro
doctors to the MSV, while 45 opposed it,
AS a two-thirds majority is required to
change the constitution of the Medical
Society, the measure was defeated.
The discrepancy between the results of
the poll and actual voting at the meeting
deserves our attention. Usually when such
discrepancies occur between opinion polls
and actual voting, check of the figures
reveals that many more persons voted than
were polled, and that for one reason OF
another the poll ballots were not returned
by true cross section of the voting pub
lie, and SO were not representative of act
ual public opinion on the issue.
In this case, however, these factors are
reversed. That is, 400 white physicians in
Virginia returned ballots on the poll,
whereas only 120 actually voted on the
issue at the meeting of the MSV. In short
more than three and half times as many
voted on the poll as voted at the meeting
1t therefore seems safe to assume that in
this case it was the actual voting and not
the poll which was not representative of
opinion on the issue.
Next week we shall report on the reac-
ton of white doctors concerning the ad-
mission of Negro physicians to hospital
stats.

merely Incidental as result of this con-

his remarks, White touched briefly on the
numerous achievements brought about in
America under Democratic Administra-
tons during the past 20 years. He men

benefits made available to the American
people under such Democratic rule, es-

fTC Releases Order
AGAINST zIotnick on
Deceptive Practices

A Federal Trade Commission
order directing Zlotnick. the Fur
rier, Inc, 1901 G street NV, to
stop misrepresenting the price and
quality of fur garments and using
other deceptive practices in deal
ing with customers, was made
public today.

sion of the commissions trial ex-
aminer, Henry P. Alden, published
in January, 1851.
Company Waived Hearing.
When a hearing was called
on the commissions complaint
against the company in October,
1850, the company withdrew its
answer denying all the allegations
and substituted one admitting all
material allegations of fact. The
hearing was waived, and the ex-
aminer later issued his initial
decision.
This was appealed by the COM
missions attorney. who held that
the trial examiners findings of
fact and cease and desist" order
did not cover all the practices
alleged in the complaint. The
company then also appealed, stat
ing that while all material allega-
tionS of fact had been admitted,
several of the items in the COM
plant were conclusions of fact or
conclusions Of law.
Addition in Final Order.
One of the additions in the final
order issued by the commission
prohibits the company from using
pictures of garments in advertis-
ing unless those garments are
actually in stock. The order is
dated March 81 and becomes eff
fective so days from then. Within
that period. the company is to
file report on the manner in
which it is complying with the
order.
Ben Melnicoff, one Of the at
torneys for the company, said

Salesman Held on Charge
Of Taking Numbers Bets

A salesman who said he played
the numbers but didn't take them
was charged with operating a lot
terry yesterday.
The only seizure by police when
they arrested Henry H. Hollings-
worth was a bunch of calendar
pages, dating back to January,
1851. On each day on the calen-
dar, a three-digit figure was
penciled in. Police decided
these figures were the winning
numbers for the last Is months.
Hollingsworth, who Is A and
colored, was arrested at his home
in the 900 block of Third street
NE. Police said an undercover
man had made one numbers bet
with Hollingsworth. Hollings-
worth, however, said he took the
bet as a favor for a friend.

City Amends
zoniing On
Apartments

Amending that section Of the
zoning ordinance which limited HI
(resident) construction to two and
a-half stories and 35 feet high,
the City Commission Tuesday night
opened the door for construction
Of three story apartments within
the same heighth restriction.
First to take advantage of the
amended ordinance will be DR..
George H. Clark whose tentative
plans for a three-story apartment
development at Terrace and Su-
perior rds. initiated the action.
Final plans must have the approval
of the Zoning Board of Appeals.
The proposal was delayed when
it first came to the attention of
the Commission two weeks ago,
following a question of flat VS..
gable roof design. Commissioners
wanted to hear what Michael NJ.
Kane, architect for DR.. Clark had
to say on this point. They were
also interested in having DR..
Clark's opinion since he is finan-
cially interested in the two and
half story apartment development
on the same plot of ground, but
facing Forest Hill blvd.
Tuesday evening the discussion
was we'll underway before the roof
issue was even mentioned, and then
it came from Law Director A. E.
Griffith who reminded the Com
mission that the kind of roof had
been the point at issue two weeks
previously.
After hearing both Mr.. Kane
and DIR. Clark the Commission
seemed to be of the opinion that
since DIR. Clark is financially in
terested in both the present and
contemplated development, this
was a matter for him to decide
with his architect. However, the
Commission indicated it would like
to know about the roof when the
plans are ready.
Mr.. Kane held that the flat roof
fit in with the building lines, but
was willing to make a concession
in a change of building architec-
ture.
DR.. Clark said that plans call
for from four to six buildings, with
outlook toward Terrace I'd. There
will be some 70 rental suites and
outdoor parking.

Mrs. Bolton
Urges Active
Citizenship

Americans today are living in
the most challenging period of
their country's history, declared
Mrs. Frances Bolton, 22nd Con-
gressional District representative
Monday in her once-a-year talk to
East Cleveland Kiwanis. This
challenge comes from the need for
constant display of true Ameri-
canism to save the republic, she
stated.
America, she said, had been
hurled into a world leadership
never before experienced by a
country so young. This spot on the
stage demands considerate action.
"There is no such thing as a de-
mocracy," was her rather startling
statement, "we are a republic
Democracy can fall. Republics en-
dure," she explained. "The future is
in your hands and while you may
not see this thing through, your
children must"
Mrs. Bolton defended her stand
for housing by referring to condi-
tions right in Cleveland, the CEN
tral area and other sections.
This congested living condition
begets crime and narcotic viola
ton, and she placed the response
bility on those who fail to do
something about it.
Mrs. Bolton urged everyone
present to vote at the primary
election May 9th and in the gen.
eral election in November; to ex-
press their own personal decisions
after learning all possible about
each issue and each candidate.
The speaker also urged re-
turn to self government, and de-
pendence on ones own and ones
community's resources. Federal
ization, she indicated results from
lack of alertness of free people,
and when the people don't act, the
federal government will.
It's against the free way Of life
to have any one party in power for
25 years, she pointed out, since it
gives time and opportunity to
build up small empire around
themselves. Il believe in the two
party system, but we won't have
it if we don't turn the rascals out
this time," she declared.
In closing Mrs. Bolton plead
with her hearers to take their citi-
zenship seriously in every phase
of living, reminding them they
still have their constitution giving
powers.
