For Negro Vote
In New JERSEY

Newark, N. j. (ANP) - The
naming Of Herbert H. Tate as vice

The appointment Of Tate was
interpreted by political observers

The action appeared also as a
prelude to the all-out struggle ex-

As the State Department began
recently to move into its new

recalled that only 20 years ago
Congress was so stringent in pro-
viding funds for the Department
that it denied a $500 movie pro-
jector on the grounds that SINH

two blocks away.
Today the State Department has
its own movie theater and uses it
regularly, but this is only minor
example Of the phenomenal ex-
pansion that has been the con-
sequence Of the nations new role
in world affairs.
In 1910, Secretary of State Cor
dell Hull went before Congress to
justify budget of $21 million
for his department. He was de-

addition Of clerk in the Far

the Departments motorcycle for
a third automobile. There was
considerable haggling over the ex-

congressman asserted that the
State Department should use the
Library of Congress to obtain it's
official translations.

The atmosphere today is utter

Berlin, 1860, is a city under

calendar the way a condemned

clock.
They are deathly afraid of a
Western sell-out at the summit

about summit issues for a few
minutes, then burst out emotion

the status quo. Old wartime ami

British, are returning to the sur

Mental Atmosphere -
The Eastern Zone, however, is,

and shell craters have been filled
in, but the ghostly hulks of build

on the dreary streets. A pail OF
death and destruction still hangs
over it all, and one can almost
imagine that he still smells the
rotting corpses buried beneath

The mental atmosphere Is
equally heavy.
This is what all of Berlin might
