THE LAST WORD
By PAUL T. ZENTAY, M. D.
Honorary Life Member, American Social Hygiene Association
I personally always had the strong feeling that
anybody who is trying to render any kind of public
service should not expect and should not even hope
for any kind of gratitude or any form of recognition.
The work he does carries in itself its rewards; it gives
enough satisfaction in the spiritual sense, even though
results may not be measured in immediate achieve
ments. Besides, the important point is doing good work
for your community even if it is done anonymously,
as it is not important where the credit goes as long as
the work is done and the community is benefited.
It has been my credo that a man owes much more
to the community than just to make a living. Our duty
extends far beyond that, and we must try to be leaders
and educators in those fields for which we are best
suited. %
Democracy certainy cannot function and cannot
progress without the active and enthusiastic partici
pation of every citizen according to his own lights.
Stevenson Calls On Nation To Weigh
Evidence Before Passing Judgment
On Nixon’s Private Expense Fund
WASHINGTON, i/P) — AdlaiS
Stevenson, the Democrats’ candi
date for President, has called on
the nation to wait and see before
it passes judgment on the Repub
lican vice-presidential nominee’s
$16,000 private expense fund.
Stevenson declared:
“Condemnation without all the
evidence, a practice all too fam
iliar to us, would be wrong.
“Who gave the money, was it
given to influence the senator’s
position on public questions, and
have any laws been violated?
“I am sure the great Republi
can party will ascertain these
facts, will make them public, and
. ct in accordance with our best
‘raditions and with due respect
for the second most important po
sition in the land.”
Stevenson thus stood apart
from some other Democrats —
and, reportedly, some of Eisen
hower’s avisers—who were say
ing Nixon should get off the GOP
ticket.
At Kansas City, Eisenhower de
fended Nixon and said he thought
the case had been misrepresented.
At Pasadena, the attorney Dana
Smith said the contributions came
from himself and 50 to 100 other
Californians and were limited to
$500 a year each.
“We felt,” he said, “that Nixon
was an outstanding spokesman in
the Senate for the free enterprise
system we believe in.”
Nixcm himself said he gave the
group no favors, nor was he asked
for any. He said he used the
money for expenses he felt should
not be charged to the government.
Senator Taft told newsmen that
he could not see any reasom why
a member of Congress should not
accept gifts from friends or con
stituents “to help pay even per
sonal expenses in Washington,
certainly those political and travel
expenses which are not paid by
the government.”
Eisenhower Terms
Ste vensonN ominee
Of Big City Bosses
ABOARD THE EISENHOWER
SPECIAL, (IP) — Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower Friday night termed
his Democratic opponent in the
presidential race the nominee of
the “big city bosses.”
In the most pointed attack he
has made on Gov. Adlai Steven
son, the Republican nominee told
a cheering audience in Kansas
City Stevenson was nominated by
the “big city bosses” over Sen.
Estes Kefauver of Tennessee.
And he added:
“I sympathize with the nominee
of the Democratic party because
of the company he is obliged to
keep.
“Perhaps he may disown that
company altogether. But this is
the payoff question: will the
bosses disown him?”
Meanwhile, Eisenhower appear
ed committed to keeping Sen.
Richard Nixon of California on
the GOP ticket as his running
mate.
The Republican nominee came
out for the first time on this
show with some thoughts about
how he would end the Korean war
if he is elected. He said that
“there seem no way of winning
the war decisively and quickly.”
He did not mention the current
truce negotiations.
But he suggested that South Ko
rean troops be armed and trained,
moved into the front lines and
that United Nations troops, most
ly American, be put back into the
reserve areas “so that we don’t
have to stand all of the losses.”
To supplement this, he urged a
“terrific propaganda” program be
directed against the Chinese Com
munists.

Error, Ask Him to Return
SEATTLE, (JP)—One man listed
by the FBI as a Communist party
leader was out on bail Saturday
and another was back in jail after
being released by mistake.
William J. Pennock, president

conspiring to overthrow the gov

noon through an error in orders.
They found it out when Dasch

SMks 'Housekeeping License'
CONWAY, Ark., (IP) A man
stepped briskly up to the counter
at the Faulkner County court
house and asked for a “house
keeping license.”
Clerk Mrs. Jewell Crow diplo

she was authorized to issue mar
riage licenses — but not house
keeping permits. He asked an
other clerk and got the same an

The caller finally departed the
court house, apparently to con
