He was very carefully ex-
amined In August. the first. by
DR.. Tom Mattingly. and with
cardiograms. and there was no
sign whatever Of any disease.
There Is no doubt about that.
/ reviewed the records going
back to 1910. and the cardio-
grams are all normal. So this
was an acute illness.
Could He Run?
@, Would you give us In your
own words whether you think
he could run IN . political cam
lpaign?

lanswer that question. Even from
the standpoint Of his complete
recovery. you can't say.
@. Does bursitis have any
thing to do with heart trouble?
DR.. White-No. it's q compli-
cation not infreuuent. but most
people who have bursitis don't
have any heart trouble, and
most people who have heart
trouble don't have any burSitis.
@. win you be back in two
weeks and perhaps then give us
the answer?
DR.. White-Yes, he has, had
excellent treatment here, and one
lof the reasons I feel free to 60

him. and Dr.. Mattingly Of Wal
ter Reed. q very able cardiologist.

Itinue here for q few days and

lplications.
@. without reaching any con-
illusions. would you tell US the
kind Of thing you talked to the
President about this morning?

told you about this process Of
these little wrecking cells coming
lin. That Is very important be-
cause then q person realizes why
The needs to be quiet. You see.
|he may feel perfectly well, and
most people do. and sometimes
The feels well enough to 60 out
Jon the golf links. But knowing
what is going on, he is Is quite
content as anybody else Is to
continue the proper treatment
for getting q good scar.
@. Do you think he wanted TO
|go out on the golf course?
DR., White-I think he would
hike 10.
Q. You don't think the high
altitude had anything to do
with it?
DR.. White-I don't think this

this attack.
Mr.. Hagerty-T don't mean to
break this up, but the doctor
does have TO 60. and ! imagine
you people do. too.
MFR. Hagerty-Thank you very

Respiratory
Ais Mans
Constant Foe

Upper respiratory infections -
suuch as influenza, pneumonia
grippe and bronchitis - ar e
mans most persistent foe.
After studying nearly 10000
cases in its files, Mutual of O.
maha, the largest exclusive
health and accident insurance
company in the world, found that
upper respiratory infections caus-
ed nearly 20 per cent of all dis
abilities reported among men.
Ulcers and stomach or intes-
final trouble ranked next, caus-
ing 6h per cent of all disabilities.
General health reasons were
responsible for disabling one Of
every four men covered by the
survey. Disorders Of the diges-
tive and circulatory systems to-
gether caused nearly one-fourth
of all cases.
More than one of every eight
disabilities was the result of a
fracture, dislocation or sprain.
Ribs were the most frequently
fractured bones.
Since Mutual Of Omaha does
business in every state, the sur
vey covered the entire nation.

A BeIoted Salute To Yellow Cab Co.

With the demanding need of Fair Employment Practices in Oma-
ha, we think this is an opportune time to point up a situation preg
nant with meaning.
In our community we have merchants and businessmen who
would retard progress by their bgtory, lame excuses, and completely
unfair employment practices.
In comparison, the Yellow Cab Co, which is by no means an i'm
mediate member of the community, has been one of the first to prac
tce fair employment in Omaha.
Amidst great furore and abuse, Mr.. j. F. DAILY, vice president of
Yellow Cab of Omaha, refused to yield to the bigots and false
propagandists who would delay progress.
However, this is not the first time Mr.. DAILY has given a hand
10 progression many years he has contributed greatly and without
clamor to the general welfare Of GREATER Omaha.
Mr.. DAILY says yellow Cab" will continue to hire on merit and
he will soon make available situations in all departments.
We personally salute you (YELLOW CAB COZ for the cour-
ageous, intelligent progressive stand you have taken and we know the
general public will support and applaud this stand for democracy.

it. Therefore, we should realize
the need for helping those who are
being oppressed at the present
time by bigotry."
Secondly, the NAACP platform

New Legion
Officers Now


Theodore Roosevelt Post No.
80 American Legion at this issue
will have had its annual installa-
ton Of the elected officers. Pre-
vious preparations for this af-
fair was the best that the Post
could hope to have, including any
previous affair of the same order.
Great things should and are
bound to happen. Regardless Of
the very hot weather the Post
continues to progress and new
and old members in increasing
numbers come into the Legion
organization.
1t is the firm expressed resolu-
ton of each elected officer to do
their very best to keep the Post
at its highest peak. Notice of
the passing Of Comrade Thomas
L. Moore of 26O6 No. 21st was re
ceived with sympathetic regrets.
The Legion will serve at last
rites at Cleve Temple Methodist
Church. We have sick comrades
in V. A. Hospital-Willie Bell,
Ralph Underwood, and Paul
Adams. Send the sick a card or
do the better service by making
them a personal visit.
The Ladies Auxiliary, under
the capable leadership of Mrs.
Emory Hickman is progressing
very nicely. The attention OF
both Legionnaires and Auxiliary
members is called to the coming
membership drive right after the
installation of officers and please
stress this effort with all your
might. 1t is the honest summa-
ton Of all things that makes us
great, our service and loyalty to
God, our Country and our fellow
man.

intimidation
Of Teachers

The International Union Of
Electrical, Radio and Machin
Workers, CLIO, last week demand
ed that Attorney General Brown
ell and the Federal Bureau of In
vestigation Immediately investi-
gate the Georgia State Board of
Education, which has ordered that
Georgia teachers who are mem
bers Of the National Association
for the Advancement Of Colored
People to quit NAACP or have
their teaching licenses revoked
for life.
AL Hartnett, Secretary-Treas-
urer of IUE-CIO and chairman of
its Civil Rights Committee, de-
nounced the action of the Georgia
Board as un-American and as an
outright attempt to flout the au-
thority of the Supreme Court in
its recent unanimous decision
against school segregation.
Harnett declared that Brownell
and the FBT should act at nee to
protect the sacred right of Ameri-
cans. There is no room in this
country for those who flout civil
liberties" he said.
while the Georgia Board is at
lacking an outstanding American
organization such as NAACP, |
am sure that the board is winking
at membership of some white
teachers in the subversive Associ-
alton for the Advancement of
White People, which is devoted to
lawlessness in regards to the
court decision, and at membership
in the p~resent-day version of the
Ku Klux Khan, an anti-Negro,
anti Catholic and anti-Semitic
outfit which has been disowned
by every right-thinking American
of all religions and which has been
on the Attorney Generals Sub
versive organizations list since
that list was started.
"Brownell is obligated to see
to If that the xxx does not again
raise its head.
In Georgia, the spirit of the
xxx rules the State Board Of
Education, which seeks to deprive
negro teachers of their inalien-
able rights to belong to an organ
ization which fights to preserve
the ideals of our Constitution"

Comply With Supreme Court

cities which have announced
desegregation plans for their

Edinburg, Karnes County, Har-

total number of Texas COM
munities which have announced
desegregation plans stands now
at about Is.
Meanwhile, the Alabama state
legislature passed a school place
ment bill" which has as its adj
mitted purpose the maintenance
of segregated schools in that
state.
The bill, which became law on
August 2 without the signature
Of the governor due to the tim
ing Of its passage, gives to city
and county boards of education
the police power to assure social
order, goodwill and the public
welfare" in assigning pupils to
elementary and secondary
schools.
Each child is to be assigned to
a school on an individual basis
after consideration Of some dozen
factors in his case
These factors include "the ef-
feet of admission of the pupil up
on the academic progress OF
other Students" "the possibility
or threat Of friction or disorder
among pupils or Others" and
"the possibility Of breaches Of the
peace or i'll will or economic re-

we can get because the Associa-
ton is under direct attack by
highest state officials in Vir
ginia, North Carolina, Alabama,
Georgia, Mississippi and Louisi-

AFTER Governor Hodges of
North Carolina attacked us in his
speech August 8, we received a
rush order for 1000 membership
cards from that state.
"The rest of the country can
give a most effective answer to
Georgia and the other states by
sending memberships and con-
tributions to the NAACP. People
who get angry should take it out
in money, $500 to $500, and not
in cussing. Cussing doesn't help
the Dixie situation. Only action
backed by money can help"
