which the others do not need

I am sure that from there

to you today is, "a MERRY
Christmas!" I do hope yours
Is very happy. wherever you
are.
I hope you received what
you wanted. If not, I hope
you like the thought, any
way.
If you are baldheaded and
got a hairbrush, or are not
sports minded and got a pair
Of skates. or If someone gave
you a book when you never
read or records when you do
not have a record player,
someone remembered you,

Washington, D. c., Apr. 49,
A Negro official of the Republi-

charging that the Democrats

over recent Negro appointees.
He is Louis Lautier, a Special
Assistant to the Chairman Of

According to a recent Press
release, Lautier says:
The De m o cratic National

ago a list of Negro appointees
it claimed the Kennedy Admin
istration had made to Govern
ment posts.
One of the appointees men,
toned was Robert C. Weaver,
head of the Housing and Home
Finance Agency. But one of the
several omissions in Democratic
claims was the current report
that there is a split in the White

Although only a sprinkling of
Negroes was in attendance for

Much of the enthusiasm had
