Al Southwest Center

A cardiac detection clinic will
be opened by the Health De-
partment Monday in the South
west Health Center, Delaware
avenue and I street S.W.

clinic sponsored by the District.
For the time being, it will be
operated only between 8 a m. and

can be made by calling District
7-l834 and asking for the heart
clinic.
DR.. Daniel L. Seckinger, Dis
trict health director said the
clinic is to detect previously un-
known cardiac illness.
Since heart disease is our
greatest killer and one of the
greatest disablers of persons in
the prime Of life, it is felt that
the Health Department should
establish such clinic to detect
early heart disease" he ex-
planned.
Those persons who do not have
the services of a physician avail
able will be given preference.
The establishment of the clinic
was made possible through Fed
eral grants-in-aid by the United

Policeman Files Suit
To End Suspension

A suspended rookie policeman
has asked for Federal Court
order to compel the Metropolitan

him to active duty.
In his request for a mandatory
Injunction, filed in the U. S. Dis
trict Court for the District of CO.
lumbia, Pvt. Andrew A. Macklin,
of 1881 D street NE, said he was
suspended on September 10, 1852.
Since then, the suit asserted, he
has been unable to learn the
reasons for the suspension.
Pvt. Macklin said he was put
on inactive duty by Inspector
Clarence Lutz of the Morals Di-
vision a few days after Pvt.
Macklin arranged for a meeting
between gambler Henry M.
piggy Leake, a., colored, and
undercoverman, Pvt. Wyatt Roy.
AS a result of the meeting
which took place behind the Ma
tional Guard Armory, Leake was
indicted on a charge of bribery.
Macklin's suit alleges that
every time he inquiries of Inspec-
tor Lutz concerning the suspen-
sion, the inspector tells him that
no action will be taken in Mack
Inns case until Leake has been
tried.
In addition to reinstatement or
the filing of formal charges,
Macklin seeks back pay from
September IL, plus $4,000 COM
pensatory and punitive dam
ages. AIMED defendants were the
Board of Commissioners, Chief
Robert v. Murray and Inspector
Lutz. The suit was filed by At

their intention to subvert the
Government of the United
States"
Early in his Congressional
career, when he was serving on
the immigration Committee, he
said, patriotic organizations
came to him with warnings
about communism.
Recalls Defeated Bill.
If a measure introduced in
Congress in 1882 to deport all
Communist aliens had sue
ceeded, he said, communism in
this country could have been
"nipped in the bud"
by their deportation, we
could have evicted from this
country the men who later
formed the great conspiracy OF
communism between 1882 and
1945," he declared.
But the measure was fought
and defeated in Senate commit
tee by "so-called liberal Sena-
TORS" he said.
Now, he added, it is necessary
to support Congressional COM
mittees to appraise the damage
that was done.

OAR Dedicdtes Bell Tower
As Valley Forge Inspiration

Mrs. James B. Patton, presi-

today millions of visitors would
gain patriotic inspiration from
a new OAR memorial in Valley
Forge, Pa.
The OAR leaders prediction
was part of remarks prepared
for dedication exercises at the
OARS memorial bell tower, built
in Valley Forge from contribu-
tions of OAR members.
Mrs. Patton said the new tow
er, costing $378,0 900, "epitomizes
the adherence to the society's
historical theme and mandate,
inasmuch as the thousands of
Inscriptions memorializing Amer
lean heroes of the American
Revolution, World Wars 1 and II,
as we'll as Korea, are inscribed
herein in hallowed writing"
The Daughters will hold me-
mortal services tomorrow for
members who have died during

Officers' Banquet.
Last night. 164 present and
former officers attended a ban
quet of the National Officers
Club in the Mayflower Hotel.
They heard Representative Dies,
Democrat, of Texas. call for a
return to "old-fashioned pa
triotiSm."
There is but one salvation
for our country, and that saliva
ton is to return to the funda-
mental principles that made us
a great country" said the former
Un-American Activities Com
mittee chairman.
"Our children should be taught
that it is not disgrace to love
this country" he declared.
To vigorous applause from his
audience, he said: II am sick of
this jargon about one world gov
ernment."
The United States, he said, is
the only internationalist country
in the world today. Russia is
not one. and neither is England,
he said.
He repudiated the idea that
the United States has a duty to
bail out every country on earth.
He expressed willingness to help
other countries stop Communist
aggression, but he added that
lit can't be done by the United
States alone"
Assails Chambers.
Mr., Dies said also that he has
no use for Whitaker Chambers.
HE spent years serving the
cause of treason, and now he's
making a fortune exposing his
own perfidy." he declared.
Mr.. Dies said he was not say
ing the information was not USE
full, but he said he had no pa
tience with the idea that intel.
ligent people were justified in
Joining hands with traitors"
He asserted there was no ex-
cuse for any one in this country
to serve a foreign enemy. What
Russia intended to do was COM
mon knowledge all over this
country, he declared.
II never had respect for a man
who, with a college degree,
joined an organization that was
a reasonable one" he said.

Held Possible
Martin Promises
Quick Action on
Floor of House

House Speaker Martin today
held out the possibility that
Washington may be able to get
daylight-saving time April rs.
along with other major areas
in the East.
The Massachusetts Republican
said that despite a crowded cal
endar for the House next week
some way will be found to get
a daylight-saving bill to the
floor for action if the House Dis
trict Committee approves such
legislation.
Expressing the personal hope
that the committee will approve
a daylight bill. the speaker said.
IF the committee puts it out
we'll see that it gets to the floor
very quickly"
Meeting Called Wednesday.
Representative O'Hara, Re-
publican. of Minnesota has called
a special executive session of his
House District Subcommittee for
10 am. Wednesday to consider
the legislation.
The Senate has already passed
a daylight-saving bill, so it
appeared likely today that if the
House should approve a bill
which would go in effect a week
from tomorrow the Senate would
go along with it.
The Senate bill would give the
District Commissioners perma-
nent authority to establish day.

out of three Eastern cities, Balti-

York make the change.
The House measure would au-

greSsional aides on Capitol Hill
are being deluged by increasing
demands from railroads, air
lines. bus companies and others
for a decision. Their schedules
must be printed in advance, they
explain, and Congressional delay
already is causing confusion.
Will Study Rent Question.
The O'Hara subcommittee also
will make study next Wednes-
day of the pending problem of
what to do about extending
District rent control beyond
April 30.
Another District subcommit-
tee. headed by Representative
Kearns. Republican. of Pennsyl-
vania, will meet on Tuesday to
consider legislation for investi-
eating metropolitan Washington
transportation problems.
Chairman Simpson of the
House District Committee said
he probably will call a meeting
of his group on Thursday or Fri
day to act on any bills approved
by subcommittee. Any bills re-
ported to the House by the full
committee could come up on
April q for action by the House
on District Day.
