CT became naval base and the metery became a place of inter- ment for deceased naval personnel In 1890 President Harrison signed an order formally designating it as military und naval cemetery.
 The Navy evacuated it's base at Sitka in 1912. Nine years later Sit ha residents started a movement to rehabilitate the cemetery. A call was made for volunteers and con- tributions and restoration pro- gram was started. The federal gov ernment appropriated $1,2OO tc further these efforts.

Work is to be completed by Janu- ary 30.
 The cemetery's history is closely interwoven with the colorful past of Sitka, the oldest town in South eastern Alaska. During the Russian regime, Sitka became the center of Russian operations for all of North America. It was a major fur trad- ing post and port of call for clip per ships on their way to the China Seas.

 One of the first buriaIs was that of Lieutenant Livermore Accord ing to legend, he was killed by a brother officer in a duel caused by thtIr ii ulIy for the love of Nadia a Russian maid whose beauty had set the hearts of members of the garrison aflame.

Dear M. Hodge:
acknowledge receipt Of your letter under date Of
February 8 enclosing a resolution to the Congress to place
the Virgin Islands on a more favorable basis with the
states Of the United States in regard to the public assis-
tance program of the Federal Social Security Act. You
will be interested to know that I have introduced a bill
designed to carry out the recommendations Of President
Eisenhower with respect to Improving the public assist
ance programs and placing old-age assistance on a more
realistic basis in relation to the old age and survivors
insurance program. The bill would increase the amount
Of the dollar limitation now in effect for public assistance
grants to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands by Is per
cent after June 30. 1856. While the present formula for
Federal participation in individual payments will not be
affected, it would increase the limitation on Federal as
~sistance grants to Puerto Rico from $4,25O,OOO to $5,312,5OO
and for the Virgin Islands from $4,000 to 100000. This
would help both Of these jurisdictions provide more ade-
quately for assistance recipients than is now possible.
I am hopeful that action will be forthcoming on this
important legislation. / appreciate hearing from you on
the matter.
Sincerely yours,

unrest in the Middle East. She
added, however, that there is still
hope that Egypt. las well as the
other Arab countries collaborat-
ing with her. will come to un-
derstand that the way to peace
and security is in the Baghdad
Pact.
During the interview Mrs.
Tlabar also said that:
/. Marshal Tito had assured
the Turks on a recent visit to
Ankara that there was no ques-
ltion of any basic change in Yu-
goslavia's attitude toward the
Soviets."
2. Turkey has given no seri-
Gus consideration to slashing its
defense outlays-now about 40
per cent of the national budget
in an effort to ease its grave
economic troubles.

Tense expenditures are a neces-
sary sacrifice to be made for our

also are our contribution to the
security of the entire free

3. The Voice of America and

Turk Woman Legislator
Wary Of Russion Smile
By L. EDGAR PRINA

fish Parliament yesterday pre-
dicted the Soviet campaign Of
smiles would continue to gain
ground until the Western allies
unite in demanding less talk and
more hard proof from the Krem-
lin on its much-publicized desire
for peace and friendly relations.
Some of us put out our hands
to the Russians and others of US
turn our backs on them" Mrs.
Nazli Tlabar said in an inter-
view. They are the only ones
who profit from this confusion. !"
Turkey has spurned Soviet
overtures for an expansion of
trade and recently rejected an
invitation for 20 members Of
its Parliament to visit the
USSR. On the other hand, top
Soviet leaders have visited
Great Britain, French Premier
Guy Mollet has visited Mos
COW, and Gen. Nathan Twin
ing. United States Air Force
chief of staff, plans to attend
an aviation show in the Soviet
Union.)
Points Out Peril
Mrs. Tlabar twho contrives to
pronounce both the "T'' and the
81" in her name), is a member of
the foreign relations committee
Of the Parliament. She sees the
new Soviet line as more danger
GUS than the old. even though
communiSm's basic aim of world
domination is unchanged. This
is her reason:
THE smiling face is more at
tractive to unknowing peoples.
1t may induce them to drop their
guard and in the end. when it
proves to be illusory, it may be
too late"
The attractive. dark haired
visitor is granddaughter of the
last grand vizier councillor Of
state) of the Ottoman Empire.
For the last 10 weeks she has
been on a speaking tour of the
United States. In Washington,
she has conferred privately with
dozens of Senators and Repre-
sentativeS.
Mrs. Tlabar pointed to the
situation in North Korea as an
example of continuing Commu-
mist duplicity. While the Rus
slams talk of disarmament and
peace they and their satellites
pour arms into North Korea in
violation of truce agreements,
she said.
SubversiOn Problem
One of the keys to rapproche-
ment with the Soviet Union is
the matter of subversion, Mrs.
Tlabar said.
There can be no disarmament
or friendly relations with the
USSR until the Kremlin re-
nounceS use Of Subversion as an
instrument of national policy"
she asserted. Then she added a
pessimistic note. "Since they
have never admitted promoting
subversion. they can hardly be
expected to renounce it," "a
On the situation in the Middle
East, the visiting Turkish con-
gresswoman contended that the
only road to stability in that
area is via the Baghdad Pact,
whose members include Great
Britain and't the "130 million Mos
lens of Turkey, Iraq, Iran and
Pakistan."
She predicted that the United
States would continue its moral
and material support of the Pact
and very Soon-in a matter of
months" formally become a
member.
Raps Nasser
Mrs. Tlabar sharply criticized
Premier Canal Abdel Nasser of
Egypt for refusing to join this
common cause" Instead. she
said. he has chosen the dam
gerous path of opening the doors
OF the Middle East to Soviet in
nitration and subversion."

to have provided British colonial
Africa with a new organized force
of liberalism not apparent before.
Some analysts believe the sig
nificance Of the Capricorn Society,
newly emboldened by the Salima
charter, can at this stage be liken-
ed to that of the Liberal Party in
South Africa.
Rallying Point for Liberals
The Liberal Party, which also
stands for racial equality and a
common voters roll, is numerically
small in the face Of the pro-segre-
cation parties numerous support
ers. Yet it provides a useful rally
ing point for liberals such as au-
thor Alan Patton and legislator
Margaret Ballinger, just as the
Capricorn Society does for ex-
plorer-author Laurens van der Post
and Col David Sterling, who has
made it his full time occupation.
Both organizations, too, are a
constant reminder of the vigor-
Gus opposition to segregation and
white supremacy advocates. Like
the South African Liberty Party,
the Capricorn Society is aware
that the essentially long-term ma
ture of its detectives may necessi-
tate changes of the plan. For this
reason detailed provision agreed
upon at Salima to best effect the

nursing care. For this they pay
$500 per quarter dues. Others re-

nominal charges.
What makes the hospital unique
is that it gives modern hospital
service at rates almost any Delta
worker can manage. To do this
in Mississippi is very big ac-
complishment.
Some of you may remember an
Alabama accident case. An auto
mobile on the road near Huntsville
overturned and man named Moore
was injured. No Huntsville hos
pital would take Negro patient.
The man died before he coud reach
Athens, Ala, ten miles away.
I recall a Georgia case. Dean
Juliette Derricotte of Fisk Univers-
ity. and Fisk Senior Miss Nina
Johnson were injured near Dalton.
There was a publicly supported
hospital there, but only for white
patients. So an ambulance was
called from a town sc miles away.
1t came, but both patients died.

at two hospitals. BY the time she
was taken to the third hospital she
was dead.
But this sort of thing happens
in the North, too. Mrs. Elizabeth
Price Handy, first wife of the man
who wrote "The St. Louis Blues"
was taken to New York's famous
Knickerbocker Hospital with GER
ebral hemorrhage. She was left
alone in the ambulance for almost
an hour while the hospital repre-
sentative debated the color ques-
ton. A little after finally being
admitted, she died.
And so, with these and many
other similar cases in mind, when
l heard that the Taborian Hospital,
owned and stated by Negroes, had
an operating deficit of $8,3O3.53,
my first thought was: eve cannot
let rising costs and increased needs
deprive us of a splendid hospital
in the South. We must not lose
this great Instrument of Service"
And so I sent them dollar, con-

EIks To Honor
Rev. M. |. King

PHILADELPHIA.-Rev. NJ. L.
King, leader of the Montgomery,
Ala, bus boycott, will receive the
highest award which can be pre-
scented by the Improved Benevolent
Protective Order of Elks of the
World, the worlds largest Negro
organization. Rev. King, president
of the Montgomery Improvement
Association, will receive the 7th
Annual Lovejoy Medal, from the
fraternal organization which has
more than 100000 members.
DR.. Robert H. Johnson, Philadel-
phia, Grand Exalted Ruler of the
Negro Elks, pointed out that Rev.
Kings work in fighting southern
segregation in a peaceful and or
derby manner had received the
praise and recognition from his Or
der, which merited the medal which
each year is given to a person who
has contributed to the advance
nent of Negroes. The recipient
does not have to be of the Negro
group. Previous winners of the
Lovejoy Medal were:
Governor Alfred A. Driscoll of
New Jersey, Branch Hickey. for
mer manager of the Brooklyn
Dodgers, Marion Anderson, DR..
Ralph Bunche, DR.. Mary Mcleod
Bethune and Atty. Thurgood Mar
shall.
In announcing the selection of
Rev. King for the Lovejoy award,
DR.. Johnson said:
This years Lovejoy Medal will
go to young man who has done
much to bring respect and prestige
to the fight for equal rights in
our country.
"Rev. King is worthy recipient
for the Lovejoy Medal, and he rep
resents the ideal which foster this
award for service to the Negro"
The medal will be presented to
Rev. King at the 57th National
Grand Lodge Convention of the
l. B. =. o. E. of w. which meets
at Los Angeles during the fourth
week of August.

isolated group facing a formidable
task in getting its ideas across to
anything like majority of the
various celebrates.
Nevertheless, the accelerated
pace of non-white advancement
and such events as the Mau Mau
uprising against white rule in
Kenya have undoubtedly, in many
observers opinions, produced a
more favorable climate now than
in 1913 for the launching Of the
new charter just signed.
The society is to use this charter
as a foundation stone for large
scale recruiting drive among all
races. Ultimately the society's
goal is to have various precepts of
the charter written into the con-
stitutions of the various territories
in which it is interested. And with
this in view its drafting has been
screened by constitutional experts
in Britain.
Adamant that it will not enter
politics as a political party, the
Capricon Society is nevertheless
anxious for either existing political
parties or new parties to adopt
the charter as part of their poll
teal platforms in each of the Brit
ish African territories concerned.
Already the society has announc-
ed that the new charter will be
raised as an issue in the vital forth
coming Kenya general election
which in September will test the
temper of the voters for the first
time on the controversial question
of multiracial government. 1t is by
this indirect entry into the political
area that the society has aroused
more interest now than ever be-
fore. For the signing of the char
ter at Salima, specially chosen in
Nyasaland as being remote from
the racial tension of the other
parts of central and east Africa,
and the launching of a serious
campaign in its support, appears
