his home by some Negro friends
from Phoenix, Ariz. The friends
had been connected with the build
ing of a school named for the
chemits and a private residence for
the Julians in Phoenix. During
their visit to Oak Park they were
shown around the grounds of the
Julian home.
“Evidently some one who saw
them with me thought I was plan
ning to cut up my place and sell
some of it to other Negroes,” Dr.
Julian said. “The first letter was
postmarked at about 9:30 the night
of the same day.

j situent societies have in recent
years opened their membership to
all doctors regardless of color.
The action now makes it possi
i hie for the colored physician, if
accepted for membership, to re
ceive all benefits of the society
as well as attend scientific sessions
from time to time.
It also means that colored mem
bers are automatically members of
the American Medical Association,
with all the privileges of the na
tional organization.
The Virginia society was the last
medical group in this area to admit
colored physicians — an action
taken previously by the District of

levels of consumption and produc
tion, undeveloped water resources,
difficulty of accessibility to the

and rampant malnutrition.
The FOA commented:
"The continued production and
availability of needed materials,
the security of our air and naval
bases in Africa, and in the event of
war, the maintenance of key lines
of comunimcations depend on the
existence of politically stable Afri
can societies associated with the
free world.
|t "Stability in part depends on the
extent to which the aspirations of
the people of Africa are realized
j and the extent to which they ac
quire technical skills and knowledge
essential to development.
"Through our assistance pro
grams, we arc in a position to share

the interests of the African people

President Tubman arose early j
and drove to Easton in a seven car j
Cadillac motorcade to receive the
honor. The party covered the 75
miles in an hour and 15 minutes
despite rainy weather.
The citation accompanying the
degree which was presented to
President Tubman by Lafayette
President Ralph C. Hutchinson said
in part:
“President Tubman, your nation
I stands as a symbol of liberty and
| progress to all the peoples of
Africa and is bound to the United
States by the closest ties of friend
i ship.
“Your administration has been
acclaimed the most progressive dec
ade in Liberia’s history, made so
through your vision, your able poli
tical leadership, your humanitarian
concentration.”
The honor came to President
Tubman as Lafayette celebrated its
annual founders day exercises in
the college gym.
Mrs. Ovet Culp Hobby, head of
the Health, Education and Welfare
Agency was guest speaker. Former
Undersecretary of State Bedell
Smith was among others receiving
degrees from the college.
500 Persons
President Tubman donned aca
demic robes to accept the honor.
The honorees were not required to
respond to the awards and Mr. Tub
man therefore did not address the
gathering of 500 persons.
Later at a luncheon reception at
the college given in his honor he
spoke to the faculty and trustees.
Centreville
Woman Dies In
Auto Accident
Centreville, Miss. Nov. 8 (Spec
ial) — A 3f> year old Negro wom
an was killed and two others in
jured Saturday night in a head-on
truck-auto collision three miles
south of Centreville.
The District Office of the High
way Patrol at Brookhaven identi
fied the dead woman as Nettie
Wright of Centreville.
Hospitalized at Centreville was
George Montgomery with head and
chest injuries and Joe Slack with
a fractured left leg, cuts and
bruises on the head. Both men are
Negroes and reside in the Centre
ville area.
The District office reported the
truck was in the middle of the
Sound And
Fury Again
The frequent press releases and
statements now emanating from
Senator Joseph R. McCarthy’s of
fice can be taken as a reminder
that after Tuesday’s election the
i senator from Wisconsin will be
back in the limelight—-unfortun
ately!
It has been a nice rest—this pe
riod in which Senator McCarthy
and his sayings have been rele
gated to the back pages when they
got into print at all. It would be
even nicer if it could be kept that
way. The McCarthy sound and
fury is something we couid do
without.
Evidently Senator McCarthy has
been feeling the Senate’s pulse
along with that of the public be
1 cause he is predicting that the
Senate will vote to censure him
and thereby place “an iron cur
tain between the Government and
, the American people.”
The curtain idea seems a little
far-fetched even for Senator Mc
Carthy but it fits into his gran
diose performance pattern and not
many are apt to take him serious
ly. It will take a great deal more
than censure of his Senate conduct
to separate the American people
from their Government.
Anticipating what the special
censure committee will do, Sena
tor McCarthy has apparently de
cided to make a furious offensive
serve as best defense. It is good
strategy if you can get away with
it but we doubt if Senator McCar
thy is going to be successful.
i Old Country Store
Remember the old general mer
chandise store that once was the
hub of every small American com
munity? The plows in the corner
next to the high-buttoned shoes
hanging by their strings. The big
1 cheeses and the cracker barrel
alongside the oversized pickle jars.
I Remember that delicious and dis
| tinctly different odor of salt meat,
shot polish, bananas and kerosene
that was wafted in waves from
the red-hot Franklin stove? It’s
one of non-urban America’s fondest
memories.
But what housewife of today
would go there to shop? One w'ould
road when the collision occured.
Charges against Montgomery, who
: was driving the truck, are pend
; ing.
The accident occured about 7:44
p.m. Saturday on state highway
33. Highway patrolmen Marshall
Lumpkin and Carl Prist, investi
i gated the accident.
