Having toured the cemetery and
surveyed the damage caused by
vandalS, could only see one sys-
tematic answer to explain reasons
for the broken tombstones.
Some reports would have you be-
lieve that the hoodIums were at
lacking only the graves of wealthy
families. To me, this did not APP
pear to be the case. Broken and
pushed-over stones were scattered
indiscriminately throughout the
cemetery and the fact that wealthy
families were able to erect more
outstanding monuments probably
! made it easier for the vandals to
knock them down in the dark. In
the blackness of night, it would be
pretty hard to distinguish one
grave from another and the police
have not reported seeing any
lights when they heard the tomb.
stones being wrecked.
1t has been my fortunate, Cor
unfortunately, experience to know
good many criminals, prisoners,
and DRINKS. The situation at the
cemetery and at the County Beach
is exactly in line with what the
wishful daydreaming of a prisoner
would like to see done if he were
forced to spend part of his sentence
working at either place. And wish
full daydreaming has an ungodly
way of becoming reality under the
influence of alcohol.
If / were the police, I'd check
past prisoners records to see who
has worked up in the cemetery -
especially against his win. And
then I'd check to see whether any
of these men have been released
and were drunk last week. Two or
three men could have easily &C.
compliShed the damage.
Such an investigation, though h
sounds difficult, would really be
an easy matter. There are only
about four permanent locations in
town where DRINKS gather habitual-
ly. The police know these hang
outs and know which men are most
likely to talk or brag while think
ing.
The above is merely an idea Of
course. l do not mean to fry 10

alcoholics. They suffer enough al
ready from a MISUNDERSTANDING

however, that a lead TO the Gene

DEWEY AND HALEY

The City of New York continues be the scene of un-
dgnified charges between gangsters city officials and
state officials The latest undignified exchange be-
tween aide to Governor Thomas E. Dewey and City
Council President Rudolph Haley
Mr. HALEY evidently did not think Governor Dewey
was allocang large enough of State funds to the
City of New York Evidently Governor Dewey has been
dispeased by the way city officials have managed New
York Citys affairs for tme have other citizens
The upshot of it all that HALEY accused Cover
nor Dewey of 'ruthessly playing politics with the needs
of our city The statement issued from City Hall and
brought the following reply from Harry J. ODonnell
Governor Dewey's press secretary: "Mr HALEY is as
stupid and ignorant he is shallow and venomous"
This little tdbit indicates that not only do pier gang
sers and other gangsters have disdan for New York
Ctys officials but that Governor Dewey looks upon
the eitys government with less than brstlng pride

THIS ROCK OF OURS
BY BILL GLIB
By BILL crBB

The suggestion that Mrs. VIII
helmina Harvey might be slated
for a 1856 gubernatorial race is
very interesting and encourag-
ing. The women of the State would
find it difficult to secure a more
capable, sincere leader than Mrs.
Harvey. There isn't a male poll
tician who could run against her
without finding himself seriously
handicapped.
To begin with. Wlhelmina would
probably base her candidacy on
honest issues that need to be clear
ed up. She isn't a politician in the
modern, degraded meaning of the
word. Rather, her public talks in
the past have shown that she pos
sesses a statesmanlike attitude to-
ward politics and that her primary
interest is in the general welfare
of the people instead of specific
selfish causes.
At this stage Of the game. it
might appear laughable to think
that virtuous, honest program
would stand a chance against the
old-line politicians with their mud
singing, rabble-raising procedures.
The general tendency of the voter
is to shy away IRON such mud
singing candidates, however.
Many man has lost an election
because he chose to ridicule his
opponent rather than present a con.
structive program,
If Mrs, Harvey enters the race,
the situation won't be without its
humor. One of the first planks she
has mentioned regards equality be-
tween the sexes. I'd suggest that
she forget the word equality" for
the time being and remember that
this is the South. The very fact
that she is a woman means that
even as gubernatorial candidate,
the men will see that she is treated
calamity and with every respect
due her sex. Once she has won
the election there will be plenty
of time to lower women down to
the level of men or raise men up
to the heights of woman which
ever procedure would be necessary
in her opinion to secure equality"
But the column is getting off the
subject. The object for today is to
wish Mrs. Harvey luck and offer
her our support if she should enter
the political field.

ADENAUER NOW BACKS BRITISH ARRESTS

said there danger of the Nazs returning to power

Evidently, the British provided Adenauer with suff

from Nazitype parties and organizers. The Chancellor
might also have been disturbed by the wild lies
spread by woudbe Nazis concerning the arrests Even
some of Gemanys leading newspapers played up the ar
