Beard Ordered
To Serve Term
U. S. Appeals Court
UphoIds Conviction

RICHMOND, Va, April is IN.
"A Federal appeals court yes
terday upheld the conviction OF
Sam Beard, Washington gam
bier, of evasion Of nearly a half
million dollars in income taxes
in 1914.
The United States Fourth Cir
cult Court of Appeals in a 81
page opinion by Judge Morris
Soper affirmed the conviction.
Beard had appealed from a
$4,000 fine and a five-year
prison sentence imposed by the
District Court at Baltimore.
Beard reported earnings OF
$16,75l and paid taxes amount
ing to S5.555 in 1914. but the
Government commended he
should have reported income of
$542,216 and paid $483, 1858 in
taxes. The trial court cleared
him Of similar charges for
1867.
Counsel for Beard in the APP
peal to the Circuit Court con-
tended the trial court erred in
admitting certain testimony;
that if this testimony had been
excluded the proof was legally
insufficient to sustain the YER
dict Of guilty: that there was
error in instructions to the jury,
and that a United States At
torney exceeded the proper
bounds of advocacy in his clos
ing argument to the detrlment
OF the defendant.
Evidence was that during 1914
and subsequent years Beard
conducted a gambling business
on a vast scale as a bookmaker,
dealing directly with the betting
public and also as a ''layoff
man" for other bookmakers who
placed hedging" bets. with him
Concerning the defense con-
tention as to the prosecutor 8
closing remarks about Boards
gambling operations. the Circuit
Court said:
I'VE do not consider that the
remarks complained Of went be-
yond the bounds Of permissible
argument. or that they were
prejudicial to the defendant,
especially as the trial judge
fairly charged the jury and d.
rected their attention to the
specific findings which they
must make In order to justify q
conviction"

To Succeed Anderson as
PSychiafriSt for Alaska

JUNEAU-Dr. Oscar E. Hub

the post of chief of the Alaska
Department of Health mental
health section on July l, DR.. c.
Earl Albrecht, commissioner OF

gram since its inception in 1852.

Selecting Alaska's Constitutional
Convention Delegates

Editors Note: With the en-
couragement of the Governor of
Alaska and the urging of the All
Alaska League for a State Con-
stitution, DR.. Donald r. Moberg
has written this series Of articles
concerning selection of Alaska's
constitutional convention dele
gates. The purpose is to alert the
citizens of Alaska to the immedi-
ate need of selecting suitable can
didates from all walks of life.
The political scientist also wrote
the informative articles to help
ensure that delegates will be
elected in the September Is, 1855,
special election who will repre-
sent the best interests Of all
Alaska).
The Nome nugget., 1955-05-02

vention met the. full rs days, a
delegate would receive a mini
mum of $2,625, plus his travel
time to and from the convention
site.
CONCLUSION
May 10, the closing date for
filing as delegate, will soon be
upon us. No time must be lost in
urging sincerely interested and
qualified persons to file. 1t would
be highly desirable for all walks
of Alaskan life to be represented,
thereby helping to create a truly
balanced, stable state govern
ment.
Therefore, my special personal
plea and that of the All-Alaska
League for a State Constitution
is that all major interest groups
in the territory-business, labor,
education, religious, civic, wo-
mems clubs, etc.-sponsor a can
didate of their own, either at the
divisional or territorial level.
1t would not be desirable for
the 40 members of the 22nd Ter
ritorial Legislature plus Is Re-
publican and Democratic politi-
clans disappointed at the last
election to comprise the 55-mem-
Der convention. OF course, in
practice, the majority Of conven-
ton delegates has been lawyers
and/or politicians. And they are
desirable and needed, but not as
an overwhelming majority.
But if no interest group can
persuade one of its members to
run, then the organization should
carefully choose and wholeheart-
edly support a delegate who will
pledge himself to faithfully rep
resent the groups interests.
However, in this desire for all
round representation Of major
interest groups, the primary goal
must not be neglected. The con-
vention must not degenerate into
a bitter factional feud, but must
rise above parties and special in
terests. The heartfelt aim Of ev-
cry Alaskan should be the crea-
ton Of such a favorable state gov
eminent that Alaska can more
rapidly realize its great potential.

Notes From
Bermuda
BY GERALD A. BRANGMAN

HAMILTON, BERMUDA. (Glob-
aD.-Twenty-four hours after the
late DR.. Edgar Fitzgerald Gordon
had been laid to rest, and while the
entire Island of Bermuda was
shaken by the loss of this great
stalwart, Judge Myles A. Paige,
Special Sessions Judge of New
York, arrived here. Nothing could
have been more pleasant, or well
timed. Judge Paige came here
through the invitation of the AL
pha Phi Alpha Fraternity of Ber-
muda and while his stay was very
brief, he made several talks that
helped considerably in these hours.
His maiden speech was made on
Saturday to the Bermuda Union
of Teachers, at the Berkeley In
stitute. He gave the teachers of
our schools new hope for the many
tasks that lie before them. On
Sunday morning, he officially op-
ened the Alpha Phi Alpha Citizen
ship Week, as their guest speaker.
He spoke at st. PauPs A. NJ. e..
Church in the heart Of the city, Of
which Rev. Kelly Collins is pastor.
The church was far too small to
accommodate the large crowds.
BerumdanS who are thinking and
who are concerned with conditions
on the Island have been very much
couraged because of Judge
PaigeS visit. 1t gave them new
spark of life, and made them re-
new the fight for better conditions
for all in this fair Isle. We all
realize that we must prepare our
selves as a people to take our prop
er places in the life of the Island.
We must take a stand for our
rights, and we must know how to
exercise those rights properly once
we have gained them.

Paige were heartening to all Of

What A Difference
A Few Months Make

Chicago, IIl.-A few months ago
the sight of Negroes entering the
White HOUSE to attend social gath
erings was enough to send all local
Washington, D. c., newspapers and
national news agencies scurrying
to get pictures of them entering
the White House grounds. Today
if they are not seen at the social
functions it causes comment among
the local papers, says EBONY
magazine in its June issue.
EBONY reviews many of the
Negroes who have been guests of
former President Truman and
President Eisenhower. This is far
cry from the time Teddy Roosevelt
made Dixie's editors scream by in
viting Booker T. Washington to
lunch.
When Ethiopia's Emperor Halle
SelasSie visited Washington in 1854
he became the first Negro to spend
the night there. Three months lat
er, when Liberals President, Will
liam V. S. Tubman, visited the
country, he received the same hon.
Or. During 1854, approximately 500
ether Negroes were guests of the
White House, and leading the So
cial list was j. Ernest Wilkins, AS
sistant Secretary Of Labor and for
mer Chicago attorney.
Other notableS included Archi
bald j. Carey, former alternate
delegate to the United Nations, DR..
and Mrs Ralph Bunche, and singer
Marian Anderson.
