Claiming a 100,000 membership

.. National Youth Assembly Against
^ Universal Military Training Includes
sponsors active in such reported
<■„, Communist-front organizations as
American Youth for Democracy.
**» AYD was on the Attorney Gen
eral's "subversive list” last Decem
ber. The United Negro and Allied
Veterans of America, another on the
list, has its New York state com
mander. Oliver Marten, among the
assembly’s 10 original sponsors.
"We realize the assembly will be
criticized for having sponsors or
members affiliated with American
'Youth for Democracy," Mrs. Elsie
J Willcox, national executive secretary
“"said. “But we will exclude no one.
* Our only object is to defeat UMT
-‘and the draft. The assembly was
organized for that purpose last De
cember. We do not believe our
campaign will be hurt by having
'■people from organizations said to
-‘be controlled by Communists.”
Communism Is Denied.
*. Mrs. Willcox said she is not s
Communist. Members of her fam
ily have worked for the Socialist
,. Party with Norman Thomas, a foe
.-of communism, she explained.
Rev. John W. Darr, Jr., New York,
chairman of the assembly, has de
i nied he is a Communist.
He is executive secretary of the
'•United Christian Council for De
mocracy, described as a co-ordinat
"lng group for church youth groups
devoted to social welfare. His pre
' decessor, the Rev. Richard Morford,
left the council last year to take
'■'•a similar position with the National
"Council for American-Soviet
'"Friendship. That organization was
on the Attorney General s list of
SI ‘'subversive’’ groups.
Testifying in opposition to UMT
at Senate committee hearings
*.. March 14, Mr. Darr asserted the
United States is “interfering” in
the Internal affairs of Soviet Rus
sia and other nations.
“Because the Communists are
among the social and political
movements working for social
change, the policy against Russia
and communism has become a war
,
I against social change and a war for
the status quo.
American Crisis Seen.
“The Soviet Union, with all jus
tice, refuses to give up socialism
and will not surrended to the self
righteous and shameful attempts of
the United States to interfere in her
internal affairs. * • • It would seem,
therefore, that this crisis is not
an international crisis at all but an
American crisis arising out of the
bankruptcy of the bi-partisan poli
cies of the Goyernment.”
Officials of several Government
agencies and congressional commit
tees Indicated they have no evi
dence that the national chairman
and executive secretary of the as
sembly are Communists.
Those officials, as well as private
groups on both sides of the UMT
issue, however, agreed the Assembly
is a major part of the Communist
Party plant to take advantage of,
if not lead, the opposition to UMT.
National headquarters of the As
sembly are in a two-room layout on
the second floor of a lower Green
wjch Village building occupied by
the Cafe Montparnasse at 144
Bleeker street, New York City.

Communist Party national head
quarters are at 35 East Twelfth

east of the Assembly office.
Since its organization last Dev
cember, the Assembly’s principal
mass demonstration was in Wash

mately 1,500 persons, reporting they
represented 120 youth organizations
in 20 States, held at UMT protest
meeting at Turner’s Arena.

Here Are the. True Facte About
Professional Hair Treatments
R. W. 'Plasterer
Tricholofist
April S, IMS. Everyone worries about thinning hair and ap
proaching baldness wants to do something about it. Many believe
that nothing can be done, but this is not true. Here are the facts.
Once a man is completely bald, true, nothing can be done, and we
don’t accept these hopeless eases. The exclusive, original Hair and
Scalp Clinic treatment is entirely successful, however, in the treat
ment of cases where the individual has hair, and those cases ac
cepted, successfully save and improve their hair. Authorities agree
that most baldness is due to the early neglect of such symptoms as
dandruff, scalp itch, and heavy hair fall. These conditions are
caused by neglect and improper eare.
Your first step toward regaining the health of your hair, there
fore, is to visit the Hair and Scalp Clinic for a Free, Private Exam
ination. Learn what is causing your hair loss and let them show
you that it can be corrected. If treatment is advised you will
notice immediate improvement, and you will be carefully in
structed on future eare. Fees for treatment are reasonable—
treatments are applied by highly trained operators, and remem
ber the examination is Free—it coots you nothing to get the true
facts about your own ease. Come in today. Hours: 9:36 a.m. to
7:36 p.m.; Saturday, 9:36 a.m. to 4:66 pm. The HAIB A SCALP
CLINIC, Inc., 666-669 Bond Bldg., S.W. corner of 14th St. and New
