St. Paul Urban League
Town Hall

One Of the least partly justified criticisms of
the Urban League program in many Of the affiiates
throughout the country Is that the organization does
not have enough rapport with the basic community
Il Is chiefly designed to serve.
The st. Paul Urban League which has served
the people Of St Paul for a quarter Of a CEN
tury Is planning September rs, to meet that
criticism, examine 1t and find out what the COM
munity has in the way Of suggestions to improve
the effectiveness and image Of the league.
There Is no doubt in the mind Of this news
paper Of the effectiveness and worthwhileness Of
the Urban League program. In every city In the
nation where there Is Urban League program
the community, the entire community has always
been better because Of the organizations presence
We state this without fear Of contradiction because
we have the facts and figures which often have not
been translated interpreted to the community at
large either by this newspaper or the leagues them
selves.
1t has always been this newspapers feeling
that Urban Leagues everywhere have failed to con-
tinue to explain what their aims are and what they
are doing daily to fulfill those aims Some Of the
lacks in this area can be partly explained because
most leagues thruout the country have been under
stated and personnel underpaid Some Of them have
been busy doing their jobs that they have ignored
the modern facts Of life which dictate that good
public relations program is a factor in every facet
Of organized American endeavor.
The st. Paul Urban League in an effort to OBJ
tain community reaction and exposure to its pro-
gram and suggestions from the people Is sponsor
ing Town Meeting" Tuesday night, September
25 at Maxfeld school, to find out from its member
ship and the public how 1t can serve the community
better.
People Of the community, especially those ac-
tive in other civic and social organizations and every
day citizens should attend this meeting and have
their say or hear the Urban League program ex-
planned.
The league has always done a good job In St
Paul and with community support and understand
ing may be able to do a better job. The September
25 meeting Is designed to show that the league be-
longs to the community and that the community
has the responsibility to help 1t improve its services

Where Real Problem OF
Licensing Lies

proof was needed that the liquor licensing
procedure now in vogue in Minneapolis needed over
hauling, it offered very graphically by the Sep
tember IA session Of the Minneapolis city council
The application in question that Of four
reliable business men in the Ncollet and Lake area
who sought license for the address formerly oper-
ated as the Lake Street Liquor.
After Harry Bloom holder of the license was
forced out of business in series of prosecutions
prosecutions and convictions (some Of which have
been reversed by the Federal higher courts) the
business concerns Of the area began to suffer for
the drop in traffic which occasioned by the
profitable Lake Street Liquor Store.
Noting the drop In customer traffic in the area,
four area business men led by George H. Johnston,
appliance dealer applied for the license to reopen
the outlet. Then followed series of moves chiefly
political, which stalled the granting Of the license
Finally after months and a neighborhood refer
endum in which the majority Of the persons voting
showed they wanted liquor outlet in the area, the
council license committee voted in favor Of grant
ing the license. The vote was four to two.
At Fridays meeting after considerable maneuv-
ering and apparent lack Of desire on the part Of
committee members to discuss the matter the coun-
Gil voted to approve the license
Alderman Earl johnson Of the 11th Ward then
used a parliamentary delaying trick to delay final
action on the matter to September 28 The alder
man from the Eighth Ward Elsa Johnson in which
the proposed store is located fought valianty for
the granting Of the license, did farmnded and de-
cent George Martens veteran alderman and one Of
the most dedicated city fathers. r e
One Of the reasons why the city Of Minneapolis
has lost much revenue and taxes is because Of
the outmoded liquor ordinances and patrol limits
which have created a bonanza for suburban liquor
outlets. The suburban stores have capitalized on
the situation and made large profits from the stua
ton which forces many Minneapolis residents to do
their liquor purchasing outside the city limits.
To hear intelligent men, obviously elected to
the city council for their judgement try to convince

Truman Claims Military Should Be ssMuzzEedo

NEW YORK LR = Former Pres ident Harry Truman said Monday most military men do not have the competence to interpret for eign policy"
 Truman was questioned about the current dispute over censor ing of speeches by military of ficers.
 The things they are saying de- serve muzzling," Truman told newsmen. You remember mug zled one and brought him back. '
 The reference was to Gen. Douglas Macarthur, who was re- lieved of his commands in 1851 after differences with Truman over strategy for fighting the Korean War.
 Its not a case of muzzling, it's a question of interfering with the Presidents policies said Tru- man. Every President has had that trouble. I did and fired one."
 The former President went on to say that when man chooses military career, he must follow the orders of his Commander in Chief.

Firm to Seek Gold Beneath Waters of Stephens Passage

OAKLAND, Calf. LR = After 30 years, the way has been cleared to dredge for gold. beneath the waters of Stephens Passage, Alas ka, 72-year-old Oakland engi- neer-scientist said. He's inventor of a hydraulic dredge for that pur- pose
 John c. Williams, said his firm, Williams Hydraulics, Inc, recently was granted prospecting rights by the State of Alaska to 5,120 acres of submerged land just south of Grand Island in Stephens Passage.
 Williams was prepared to start work in Stephens Passage before World War II but laws governing mining of submerged areas weren't clearly defined.
 Last Aug. Is new state law permitted filing of applications for exclusive mining rights in Step- hens Passage.
 Wi1lia a m demonstrated his dredge in 1888 under a special directive from President Franklin D. Roosevelt. It uses water pres sure for operating power.
 Williams asserts that geological surveys, government records and D r iminary sanpIings indi- cate at least $20 billion dollars in gold lies in the passage and that the submerged gold bearing area extends for 100 miles through the heart of the Juneau Gold Belt
 Williams said, that although the Securities Exchange Commission twice has granted clearance for a stock issue to finance the ven- ture, he is turning the project over to a syndicate He said the profits will be assigned to the John c. Williams Foundation, a on-profit corporation formed to aid in ventors
 Williams, who has served as ar engineering eensultant in ever, major country of the world, esti mated he has invested $1 milliol in preliminary exploration and il developing his dredge.
 He said the first stage of tht project, which should require about year, would be to sys- tematically test and explore the bottom deposits.
