day.
For "a years, six months and
Is days, Arthur Welton Michael,
as conductor and later as motor
man, has been on the Fourteenth
street run.
Everyone who has used the
line frequently will remember
him. For Mike was the shortest
motorman in the Capital Tran
sit Co. service.
New inspectors were always
turning him in for sitting down,
which was against the rules.
But his bosses always crossed
off those complaints. They knew
that Mike is so short no one can
tell whether he is sitting or
standing.

Medical Society Bars
Doctor Who Baked
Al Communist Probe
By the Assoeioted Press

BALTIMORE, Mar. 21.-The
Baltimore City Medical Society
has turned down a membership
application by DR.. Ruth Bleier,
who refused to tell a congress
sional committee in 1851 if she
was a Communist.
DR.. Bleier said today it was
the ultimate irony that my
work for peace" resulted in her
being black-balled from the
society.
The 29-year-old physician
served for a time two or three
years ago as chairman for the
Maryland Committee for Peace,
branded by the House Un-Amer-
lean Activities Committee as a
Communist front organization.
In 1851 she refused to answer
when the committee asked her
If she were a Communist.
II don't intend to abandon
my fight" she said today.
Can Continue to Practice.
The society's rejection does
not mean she cannot practice
medicine. She already has passed
the State Board of Medical
Examiners and is licensed to
practice.
One practical effect of the re-
lection is that she cannot belong
to the State Medical Society or
the American Medical Associa-
ton.
DR.. Weatherbee Fort, presi-
dent of the Baltimore City Med
ical Society. explained DR..
Bleier has the right to insist
that the full membership act
on her application.
Withhold Explanation.
Neither he nor DR.. j. M. T.
Finney, jr., chairman of the
Board Of Censors, would explain
why her name was stricken from
the last of applicants after it
had been mailed to the mem
berS.
DR.. Fort said there were eight
letters and numerous telephone
calls objecting to her applica-
ton, and the Board of Censors
found it necessary to withdraw
it's Endorsement and recommen-
dation of the name"
DR.. Bleier issued a statement
when she heard of the rejection.
II am shocked" she said.
"They have chosen to disregard
professional competence and in
tegrity as the consideration for
membership and substituted in
stead their opinion of the al
legged political views of an ap-
plicant."
