Hailed nationally and interna-
tionally by jazz and concert audi
ences, Garner is conscious that his
popularity puts him in an ideal
spot to fight bigotry. He has even
sacrificed lucrative gates because
the sponsors insisted upon discrim-
ination, Gleason said Of him.
On one occasion, said Gleason,
Garner was offered a very good
job at a top club in a major city
of the South. The management as
sured him that "a. everybody
will treat you right" But that did
not satisfy Garner, he wanted to
be assured that the audience would
be treated indiscriminately.
Therefore when he was informed
that mixed crowds were forbidden,
he promptly refused the engage
ment.
From the strictly musical stand
point, Garner is in a class Of his
own. Not only have hordes of
young musicians aped his keyboard
style, but his name has become an
institution in the field. He is a
tremendous recording artist whose
record sales run into the millions.
Recently, he has been involved
with Columbia Record Company,
for whom he formerly recorded,
over what he contends was the un-
authorized release of one Of his re-
cent albums. The litigation has
gone through several appeals and
is still being Htigated
The outcome Of the case will set
all sorts of precedents, Gleason
feels, while Gamers pioneering
work as a whole viii create a last
ing impression in jazz.

Washington. The United States
faces the same urgency in the
field of medical education as II
does ON the question Of providing
adequate health care for the aged,
according TO DR.. Edward G. Mazi-
que, past Immediate president of
the National Medical Association.
DIR. Mazique said the sense of
urgency was heightened for him
and other physicians during the
past summer when they visited the
Soviet Union and other Socialist
countries.
SWhat we saw In the field
Of health and medicine Is a
challenge to our country" he
said.
Federal aid must be expanded
to improve our health facilities and
provide for the training Of more
doctors, he said.
He favors health care for the
aged through expansion Of the SOC
ial security program, which Demo-
Gratis say win be the first order Of
business when the new Admins
tration takes over.
.
, DR.. Mazique said, I'VE must
have Federal intervention to take
care Of these areas, because Of the
size and the complexity Of our
society,""
These areas involve the needs Of
colored people, the aged and poor
whites, he said.
"In Russia, they have good dis
tribution of health and medical
services" he stated.
Qualified students have no diff
Guilty getting into medical school,
he said. Their government pays for
their education, not for some Of it,
but for all.
This system contrasts with ours
of increasing cost to the student
and the practice of racial and re-
ligious discrimination in medical
schools and hospitals.
DR.. Mazique said a medical edu-
cation costs about $4,000, which
in itself eliminates most coIored
aspirants and many whites.
Eve graduate about zoo col
Ored physicians a year." he said.
"AbOut 20 per cent Of them come
from two institutions, Howard
and Meharry. The rest come from
the other 8O-Odd medical schools
In the country.
You have token integration in
a number Of these schools. But SO
much of our talent is lost"
There's not even token integra-
ton in the Deep South, where doc
tors are badly needed and where
states give a handful Of scholar
ships to the lucky.
They usually study at Howard
or Meharry through this arrange
ment, which further limits oppor-
tunity for non-whiteS. II the stu
dent from Georgia or Mississippi
studied medicine in his own state,
there would be room for still
another boy or girl at Howard or
MeharTy.
DIR. Mazique said, $3.50 In
medical scholarships win educate
two cOlOred medical students.
What we need Is $4,000 cOIored
doctors"
The figure is around 5000 where
it has remained for a number of
years, despite the increase in pop
ualtion and the demands of the
times, he said.
Physicians are needed at home
and in the country's program
abroad, he stated.
President elect Kennedy made
similar observation during the
campaign at a political rally on the
Howard campus.

Jopon's Princess
Quitting Royalty

TOKYO, Mar. 7 (AP). -
Princess Suga said goodbye to
her Imperial ancestors today
before the sacred inner sane
tum Of the palace.
For the attractive Princess,
who became 81 last week, il
was only her third formal visit
to the dokoro-which
houses the three inner Shrines
Of the palace-and her last as
Ia member Of royalty.
On Thursday, the youngest
daughter of Emperor Hirohito
and Empress Nagako will be
married to a $50-a-month
bank clerk. After that she will
be known as Mrs. Hisanaga
Shimazu.
For the solemn occasion to-
day, the Princess, more at
home in Western clothes than
the Japanese kimono, wore the
richly brocaded centuries -old
costume Of the Imperial Palace.
While other relatives waited
in an outer enclosure, the
Princess passed into the Shinto
sanctum in the ceremony known
as Choken-no-i and reported
her coming wedding.
Her only two previous visits
there were shortly after she
was born and last year when

It's cheaper, the general
said, to contract for diaper
service than for the Air Force
to buy its own diapers, "have
them rinsed and cared for by
our attendants and sent to the
commercial laundries."
Gen. Cullen explained the
Air Force diaper policy in re-
SponSe to questioning by Rep

Once the baby leaves the

and Norair companies probably
will be asked at tomorrow's
meeting about discrimination
against other crafts besides
electricians. He said there is a
problem with others, although
the IBEW is "the most flag
rant" offender here.
He noted that the committee
had succeeded in getting con-
tractors to hire Negro rodmen.
despite traditional color re-
strictions in the Rodmen's
Union.
Committee Resolution
The impending Government
action stems from a February
"a meeting of the committee,
at which the following resolu-
tion was adopted unanimously:
Resolved, that this commit
tee will call on contracting
agencies (such as the GSA) of
the Federal Government to
institute steps to direct all con-
tractors holding Federal con-
tracts for the construction,
repair and alteration J. of all
Federal buildings and, partic-
ularly in the District Of CO.
lumbia, that they must comply
Immediately with the non dis
elimination clause presently a
part Of all contracts. Further,
that the contractors must find
qualified Negro workers, If they
exist in the area, and give such
workers equal employment op-
portunity on any work covered
by Federal contract.
"The Presidents committee
will cooperate with the con-
tractor and the contracting
agency in seeking to find
qualified Negro mechanics. In
this effort it will have the full
cooperation Of the AFL-CIO."
Mr.. Meany charged last
month that the committee had
ignored his offer-submitted
through Secretary Mitchell-to
recruit nonunion electricians if
necessary. Mr.. Mitchell said
he did not recall any such
offer. The February "a meet
ing followed, at which the
committee took up Mr.. Meany's
offer.
Mr.. Meany has said con-
tractors should not be allowed
to hide behind" discrimina-
tory practices by unions.

Mr.. Mitchell said he was in

he served as a special assist
ant in 1949-50 when Senator
Symington was Secretary of
