Truman Firm
On Negro View

INDEPENDENCE, Mo, Mar.
IS (AP).-Former President
Truman says he meant every
word Of his recent statement
about Negro sitdowns at South
ern lunch counters.
At Louisville, KY. last week
Mr.. Truman said, "If anyone
came into my store and tried to
stop business, I'd throw him
out. The Negro should behave
himself and show he's a good
citizen. Common sense and
good will can solve this thing"
Two Detroit officials for the
National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People
sent Mr.. Truman a telegram
saying, These statements if
accurately reported are shock
ing and deeply disappointing"
Mr.. Truman said yesterday
he sent this reply to Detroit:
your telegram regarding
the statement which I made
about sitdowns in the restau-
rant is correct. I would do
just what I said I would.
NAACP is an organization
which has been working for
good will and common sense
in this situation with which
we are faced.
when they do things that
cause people who have been
friendly to them, as I have
been, to feel that they are
doing the wrong thing, they
are losing friends instead Of
making them.
IF I were in Detroit I would
say the same thing to you per-
sonally :"
The telegram went to Ed
ward M. Turner, president Of
the Detroit NAACP branch,
and Arthur L. johnson, its
executive secretary.

House said they had not yet
received the word" from In

Truman was being urged to
make an early announcement

At present most observers give
him the edge.
JAW Avoiding Rift
At the modernistic head
quarters Of Walter Reuther's
powerful United Auto Workers
Union, a spokesman made it
plain today that the UAW
would throw no roadblocks in
Senator Kennedy's path.
He said officials of the inter-
national union we're cautioning
Wisconsin UAW leaders-many
of whom favor Senator Hum
phrey-not to engage in any
anti-Kennedy tactics that could
leave lasting scars.
The danger to be avoided, the
union spokesman said, is "a
rift in liberal ranks that could
pave the way for the nomina-

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question-One of our local
stations has been showing re-
runs Of the Jackie Gleason Art
Carney "Honeymooners" shows.
The most recent one ended
with Gleason exasperatedly
yelling "A pox on you and your
ancestors" At least, that's
what it sounded like. Where
did this expression come from?
&C. M. w., New York.
Answer-Straight out Of the
18th century! Mr.. Gleason
or his writers-seem to have
been dabbling in the works Of
Sam johnson or Dean Swift.
In that era, when smallpox was
