Readings are Ready
N. W.—I always read your col.
first. I am 24 years old and have
twin boys. My husband and I arc
divorced. Six months ago I met
a swell man and two months ago
I met another swell fellow. 1 do
really love .lie last man. He is
much younger than the first. The
first is 40 and the last is 2G and
both of them love me very much
and both want to marry me. I
don't want to hurt either one as
they are so nice. Tell me what
to do?
Ans: Don't lose your head. I
don’t have to tell you that a mar- j
riage without love holds no pro
mise of happiness. So. .if you can
not return the older man’s love, i
do not accept his favors.. break
off with him as gracefully as you
can. As to the man your age..
you must find out if he is willing
to share your responsibility and
lof your your two boys. A divor
cee and mother to boot, can not
marry nasuiy. Marry no man un
til you have gone together for
at least six months. You must be
sure of yourself this time.
L. J.—I have completed the 10th
grade at school and have been out
two years. At the beginning of
each term I thought I would re.
turn but didn't. I am beginning to
think if I am going to get an ed
ucation I will have to provide it
for myself. I want to take typing
or nursing or- a business course or
something where I can earn a liv
ing. Tell me what to do? I have
been thinking of trying to work
my way through some school.
Ans: A very excellent and
commendable idea. Go back to
school and get that diploma. A
part time job after school hours
and Saturdays will see you thru.
After graduation, you can take a
vocational evening school course
in the work of your choice. Will
ful dreaming is not enough though
Sis. . return to school this mid.
winter term. . no more stalling.

ses of prostitution. Lay off com
panionship of this kind. It is de
moralizing. Interest yourself for

I believe it. Am I doing wrong?
Ans: Decidedly so. You cousin
has the right slant, follow her ex
ample. The boy friend is (person

This is dangerous business. You
can easily ruin your health and
besides the risk i great for you

1 ALONG
; MY WAY j
(BY LAWRENCE P, LEWIS)
The Jack-Pot
For ten years I have been try
ing to get even with these Slot
Machines. I have not lost my
weeklv pay or the baby’s shoes,
but the few dolars that I have
lost have always made me more
eager to get them again so that
I could get irv monev back.
Just when I was beginning to
win a few nickles back they have
taken them out of the many esta
I blishments. It just doesn't seem
fair to me. but the law is the law
and it must be oeyed, or else..
I don’t play them often, like I
do the races during their running
at the Ak-Sar-Ben track, but
every once in a while when I am
out seeking the gayer part of life.
I chance a nickle or so. Sometimes
I win. but let’s keep that a secret.
A very good friend of mine
seems to win most of the time and
truthfully he does. I tell him he
is just lucky, but he has explained
I to me more than once how it
! should be done in order to win.
! One evening I met my good
friend on 24th and Lake. After I
had met him I anticipated a good
bridge or whist game. He had
i other ideas.
| “How about a little taste of
! something while we talk,'1 my
i friend asked.
I was more than glad to accept.
I was glad that he had not ment
ioned the card game. I wanted
j to sit and talk; making the world
over, and telling tall stories about
how I won the war.
After the first drink my friend
wanted to venture further. In or
der to continue the conversation,
! I had to venture along with him.
! I had not even began to tell him
1 about the swell time I enjoyed in
, Calcutta.
Arriving at the club, the first
thing that came into view was the
gaily colored and inviting slot ma
j chines. My friend looked at one
! of them and remarked, “this one
is about ready to pay off. I think
I will try a few nickles.”
He reached into his pockets.
1 separated his change, and inserted
I one of his coins. My hand did not
go into my pocket so readily. I

otherwise purified, WAA said.

had put coins in them before
when I thought they were about
ready to pay off.
Watch t i’.,” he said.
Hound and rou id the wheels
went and when tbev storped nick
les sounded like they were falling
everywhere. Of course he had only ,
t *sn, but v ’ you are playing
the slot machines, ten sounds like '
‘ This is only the beginning,”
•••v frfc-d said. “I'm going for the
jackpot.” • ^
“'Ton had belter quit now” I
ram "irked, angry at myself be
en:: I had not the courage to
put the nicklc instead of him.
“Want to go in with me?” my
friend asked.
“. .No no, I am going to play
this other one," I replied. “I’ll
show yqu how to win on these
machines.”
I began searching my pockets
for some coins. He had continued
playing and everytime the mach
ine stopped and no nickles fell. I
srrrled to myself; wo*-id have pel
ted myself on the back if I could
because of my good iudgement by
not going in with him.
Afte- hitting three pays out of
ten I felt like quitting. I had won
five nickles and they have always |
told me you can’t win forever.
My friend walked to the bar;
purchased a drink and received
some more nickles. After giving
me my drirk he continued play- j
ing the machine. .. “No use being j
a piker”, I thought to myyself, I j
might as well chance my winnings :
and go for bigger stakes. I'd show i
my friend that I could win as well
as anvone else.
As I nulled the handle, with mv
eyes wide open and my heart
beating faster than ever, I watch
ed the cherries, lemons, oranges,
plums, bells, and bars as they fell
into place. When the first two
wheels had stopped and they had
matched I about had heart fail
ure when the third wheel stopped
on the wrong selection.
I was more determined to mat
ch all of them, and even had hopes
of hitting the jackpot. I was com
ing close, but close doesn't count. !
Staying even wasn’t my objective
now. I was going to play big-shot.
I was either going to lose a dol 1
. lar, or win all of those nickles
| that were placed behind that little
window.
j»iy inenu was nui uumg mucn
I better, if that is any consoation.
| He was after the jackpot too. Af
j ter losing the coins that he had
won, he kept getting change and
putting more nickles in.
“I’ll hit it pretty soon,” said my
friend sweating a little now and
not from the heat.
“..I’ll <r~t another drink," I
said. “Might as well drink my
money up as put it in the mach
ines. One vice is as bad as another.
I thought to myself. “Strange
laws they have. A man can buy all
the whiskey he can afford, and
many persons under the influence
of the liquor, will rob, molest, and
! murder. Not counting the mans
laughter charges against the
; drunken drivers everyday.. ”
All of a sudden my friend
jumped up in the air and at the
. same time tried to place his
hands in front of the pay-off slot.
How % man can iurnn up and push
the same time is beyond me. but
that was what he was trying to
! do.
Nickles flew everywhere, and he
began picking them up, tugging
at my overcoat all the same time.
| overjoyed. People turned around
staring; some coming over, con
! gratulating him on his good for
tune. I just stood there, wanting
to pinch myself for not going in
I with him.
“. .1 told you I was going to hit
the jackpot..”, blurted out. “I
! know when these machines are go
i ing to pav off. How you doing on
that one?”, he inquired.
“..How am I doing." I almost
ishouted but caught myself just in
i time. “Come )in. .let’s have an
1 other drink. That’s two more dol
lars the machines owe me now. .”

months after it was submitted

made public Winthrop Rockefe! i
ler’s report o’1 veterans, white and '
colored. Mr. Rockefeller gave an
exclusive story on his 18 000 mile
tour to the Associated Negro
Press, in which he deplored the
plight of the Negro generally arc j
especially the Negro veteran.
In his report, Mr. Rockefeller
recommended the establishment ni j
an over all agency to coordir.at: ,
the 15 agencies dealing with vet- i
erans affairs. Secretary Patterson
is believed ready to act cn Mr.
Rockefeller's suggestion.
At the time, it was felt that Mr.
Rockefeller would head up such
an agency were it approved and
established. Since his report was
submitted, he has returned to his
office with the Standard Oil Com
pany of New York. Whether he
will be amenable to accepting the
leadership of this proposed bureau
is unknown at this time. He en.
tered the armed forces as a pri
vate, but on his discharge had at

.ion requested of the applicant
las no bearing upon his qualifi
cations as a physician and the fur
;her fact that the information re
quested by one schools is almost
dentical with that of the other,
ead to the unesca-able conclusion
at the various professional
schools wre extremely anxious* to
elicit information which wmuld
enable them to ascertain the ‘ra
cial origin.’ or ‘religion’ of the
various applicants for a purpose
ither than judging their qualifi
cations for admission.”
Councilman Hart's report casti
gates Columbia and Cornell Med
ical Schools for destroying in re
’ent yea”3 all records of rejected
applicants for adrfiission. The re
port states:
“For at least the past ten year3
charges have been leveled ag'.inst
colleges and professional scchools
to the effect that they have been
practicing discrimination against
snn’icants for admission because
pf ther religion or racial origin..
“All of the colleges .thus accused
vigorously denied the truth of
:hese accusations and asserted
that they were without founda
;ion..
“Under the circumstances, it is
fair to assume that the college
or institution claiming that the
iccusations of discriminaions,were
unjust would assiduously guard
he records which would result in
heir exculpation..
“It is a well established princi
ple of law that destruction of or
hilure to produce records concern
ing material matters raises a pre
sumption that the contents of the
•ecords. if produced would be un
favorable’’.
Councilman Hart quotes the
‘Horner Report’’ of the Council on
Dental Education which alleged
that the student body of New
York University School of Den
tistry “is made up overwhelming
ly of one racial strain-’’ Shortly
after the receip of this report in
May 1944, Chancellor Chase of
N. Y. U. asked Dr. Allen T. New
man, Dean of the Dental School
to initiate discriminatory practic
es in the admission of students,
Dr. Newmann told the Committee:
“I refused to change the policy
of accepting students on any ba
sis except their qualifications, and
when facc«£ with the necessity of
doing so, I resigned.”
in NovemDer iU4b, alter the
Hart Committee had begun its in
vestigation, the Council of Dental
Education of the American Den
tal Association tisavowed the Hor
ner report and stated that appli
cation o fa quota system in ad
missions would “violate a funda
mental principle of democracy,
would transgress the essence of
human freedom and would deny
the proper exercise of a basic
human right.”
From May 1944 to November
1946 the basic human rights of
many applicants for dental scho
ols were no doubt fiolated by the
declaration of the American Den
tal Association in its “Horner Re
port” that: “Tlie Council be
lieves that determined effort
should be made on a national
scale to counteract the trend to
ward marked racial and geogra
phic imbalance.” Councilman Hart
states:
“Why the Dental Council waited
two year’, during which time the
‘basic human rig'd'-' of manv pro
perly ounlified students were be
ing violated ia a. matter for the
American Dental Association to
explain.”
Dental schools paid heed to the
A D. A.'3 opinions on “racial
balance” because of the Council’s
threat to take from them their
acredited status, the Committee's
report explains.
This system of accreditation by
both the American Dental Assn,
and the American Medical Assn,
“is actually usurping the reroga
tives of the various State Depart
ments of Education throughout
the country”.
“The public, in general, suffers
Pom lack of a sufficient number
of medical practitioners through
o”t the country,” Oovr.oi’man Hart
a-sorts, because of the refusal of
the AM A to accredit additional
medical sehools. While the popu
lation of the country has increa
sed since 1905 by 75 percent, the
number of medical schools has
declined by half and trie number
of graduating doctors has remain
ed static.
Pointing to the shortage of doc
tors in many communities during
the war and after, the report
tates:
“The Committee believes that
0roper action should be taken by
the various states to remedy the
situation which exists. It does not
believe that the growth in the
number of medical schools through
nut the country and the number
if students graduating should de
pend upon arbituary rulings ot
the American Medical Associa
tion. which is not an official body.
The Committee's investigation
if higher education throughout
.he country, which led to its re
commendation for a State Uni
versity'. revealed that New York
ranks last in the money it ex
pends in relation to its income
ind number of students.
