REPUTATION
The English essayist and
critic, William Hazlitt, said
some mighty potent things.
Among them was this which
certainly rings true in these
days of smear campaigns and
loose talk. "A mans reputa-
ton is not in his own keeping,
but lies at the mercy Of the
profligacy of others. Calumny
requires no proof. The throw
ing out of malicious irnplica-
tions against any character
leaves a stain which no after
refutation can wipe out. To
create an unfavorable impress
sion, Ii is not necessary that
certain things should be true,
but that they have been said.
The imagination is of so deli
cate texture that even words
wound it"
BUSINESS
Here is a chart of alibiS we
hear during a business year.
Jan: People spent all their
money over the holidays.
Feb: Everyone has gone
down South.
Mar: Everybody worrying
about income tax.
Apr: People spent too much
on Easter clothes.
May: Too much rain, farm
ers worried.
Jun: Not enough rain, farm
ers worried.
Jul: Everyone away on va
cation.
Aug: Everybody still away.
Sep: Everybody h o me,

Oct: Everybody waiting for
election.
Nov: Everybody too upset

Dec: Nobody spending, tax

He said 'T shall continue to
work hard to win the nomination
but if I do not, I shall support
the nominee to the fullest of my

In his hastily prepared state
ment, Senator Kefauver said:
president Truman has served
the Nation well during many
years a Senator, Vice President
and President. I think history
will record as outstanding his
great efforts to achieve world
peace.
II am sure the Democratic
Party will continue with its
constructive program. both in the

domestic front.
Ellis has been a hard task.
Can Understand Reasons.
"I can well understand the COM
pelling personal reasons upon
which he has based his decisions.
Since the President does not
desire the nomination I am sure
he will want the people to have
the fullest possible voice in selec-
ton Of the new standard bearer
of the party.
'I hope the majority Of the
people in every section of the
country will support the nominee
of the party. I shall continue to
work hard to win the nomina-
ton but if I do not I shall sup
port the nominee to the fullest of
my ability"
Representative Jackson, Demo-
crat, Of Washington, a Kefauver
supporter, said that the Presidents
withdrawal leaves Senator Kefau-
yer in top place for the moment.
He is popular on the West
Coast. The filing date, for the
Presidential primary, closed in
California yesterday with no op-
ponent for Senator Kefauver.
He is also on the ballot in Ore

Senator Russell said he had

would go for Gov. G. Mennen
Senator Connally, Democrat, Of

Police Seen Hindered
In Numbers Arrests,
By old Slips Ruling

"A serious effect on the ability
Of police. to apprehend profess
sional numbers operators either
without or without a warrant" was
seen yesterday by a prosecutor, as
q result of District Court ruling.
Judge F. Dickinson Let's yes
terday granted a defense motion
to squash a gambling arrest war;
rant on the ground that possess
sion of old numbers slips by a
man did not constitute probably
cause for issuance of the warrant.
Judge Let's made the ruling in
the case of Samuel w. Clement.
Al, colored. of the $500 block of
M street NV.
Right to Appeal Considered.
Assistant United States Attor-
ney William Hitz declared the
ruling not only leaves the prose-
cution without evidence to prose-
cute Clement, but he expressed
the view it would have a serious
effect on the ability of police to
make arrests in gambling cases in
the future. Mr.. Hitz added the
Government is considering its
right to appeal from the ruling
and declared an appeal will be
taken if the ruling is appealable.
Clement, as a result of the
gambling arrest warrant. was
indicated on charges of operating
numbers lottery and possession
Of numbers slips. The case de-
veloped as follows:
Clement was arrested last No
vember Is on a drunkenness
charge. On the basis of old num-
berS slips and rundown tape
police said today they found on
him at that time, a warrant was
obtained for Clements arrest on
a gambling charge. Meanwhile,
the court was informed, Clement
had forfeited $40 collateral on the
drunkenness charge.
Arrested Weeks Later.
Clement next was seen and ar
rested on December z on the
gambling warrant. At that time,
numbers slips allegedly again were
found in his possession.
Clements arrest on the drunken
ness charge was at night. The
prosecution conceded that the
gambling slips found on Clement
on the night of November Is were
for that day or older.
Defense Attorney James K.
Hughes argued the gambling ar
rest warrant was illegal because
the slips found on his client were
old ones.
Judge Let's declared:
"The court is of the opinion
that such numbers slips being old
and used, do not represent any
chance or interest to be awarded
by lot or chance, since they were
not. at the time of seizure, de-
pendent upon the event of any
lottery drawing"

Church Rolls Under Study
In Liquor License Fiqht

The membership rolls Of a
church and its distance from a
restaurant were under study to-
day to determine whether the
restaurant will get another liquor
license.
Thomas ]. Connors. owner of
an eating place at 1885 Wisconsin
avenue NV. already holds a Ii
cenSe permitting liquor sale on
the premises. He wants to buy an
off-premises license, now held by
Mrs. Mary Ellen Cook, 3214 M
street NV.
The Alcoholic Beverage Control
Board. on Wednesday, heard pro-
tests from the Rev. Clarence L.
Dawson, pastor Of the Dumbarton
Methodist Church, who contends
the church is within 400 feet of
the ConnorS restaurant. He SAYS
membership totals 372.
Under the law, if the church has
a membership of at least 100 and
is less than 400 feet from a license
applicant, the board may not issue
the permit.
