PAGE EIGHT THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON THURSDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1948' Persons Eligible To Vote This Year Highest in History (By United Press) The number of persons eligible to vote in the November general election is the highest in history, a nationwide survey indicated to day. Political observers believed heavy registrations reported by cities and states across the nation might mean a record vote Nov. 2. This would require that the vote surpass the 1940 vote record of 49,815.312. The 1944 vote droi- ped to 48,025,000 because of the number of persons serving In the armea lorces. 1940 Vote Given The 1940 vote was about 38 per cent of the nation's estimated population of 131,700,000. To reach 50,000,000 and exceed the 1940 figure, the vote this year woura nave io De about 35 per cent of the estimated population 01 l'J3,UUU,UU0. One notable exception was New York City, where registrations totaling 3,313,520 were described by officials as "the poorest in many years." Registrations in 1944, when thousands of New Yorkers were in the armed serv ices and did not register, totaled 3,550,377. MrM Vote Factor c Minority leaders saw In New York's apparent voter apathy a chance of electing their candi dates over republicans and demo crats. American labor party sup porters believed the light regis- i ration win give Kep. Vito Mar cantonio an edge. Surprisingly, a number of states reported that they do not compile registration totals and have no way of estimating how many people will vote. Other states required registration only under certain circumstances and their figures were not indicative. s Ex-Screen Star Cancer Victim Kingston, N.

Louis E. Denfield, chief of naval operations, disclosed today that the atomic energy commission has been asked to speed' efforts toward developing atomic engines for submarines. Denfeld said in an interview! that the study of atomic propul sion for any use Is still In the early stages and that It probably will require "several years" to get practical results. But, he added, "we are pushing for the development of atomic en ergy engines for ships, especially submarines." In event of war, he explained, submarines along with aircraft carriers will be the navy's chief weapons. The admiral said the navy Is experimenting with several new types of underwater craft. The emphasis is on higher speed and cheaper and wider range. When the atomic- propulsion dream comes true, he said, "we will have the submarines ready to use it on." Asked about reports that Rur- sla is arming submarines with rockets lor land bombardment, Denfeld said only that "It would be very easy to put rockets on submarines."

D. 3. 116-117-C tne lot ot tne American negro, Edwin C. Berry, Portland educa tor and social worker, told mem bers of the Bend Soroptlmist club at their dinner meeting last night at the Pine Tavern. Social equal ity means more than freedom to use public facilities and the al sense of "Jim Crow" buses and waiting rcoms, he said. In order to enjoy the freedom guaranteed in a democracy, negroes are en tilled to receive fair and unpreju diced treatment in courts of just ice, to live and conduct bu.sinos.sos where they may choose, and to have equal opportunities of edu cation and self-expression, he said. Oregon is one of few northern states which do not have civil lights statutes, making it illegal to deny colored people the use of certain public facilities, he said. In discussing the problem of segregationBerry said that inter mingling among the races does not lead to intermarriage, and that on the contrary, most misce genation, or Illegal union between blacks and whites, was practiced in the south, whore racial preju dice is stronger than anywhere else. In thora cases, white males were the aggressors, he charged. This miscegenation Is the reason that the negro race is no longer! an altogether black race, and ac counts for the large number of brownish and lighter-skinned ne groes, lie said. The speaker was introduced by Mrs. Eugene Bucknum. Mrs. A. A. Symons, club president, pre sided. After the lecture, a short busi ness session was held. Mrs. A. A.

Charm School For Men Set Up In Washington By Henry Mlnard (United' 1'rtws Stuff CorreitlKrtlilent) Seattle, Oct. 21 UP) Because the only real charming men she ever met were the late President Roosevelt, Republican candidate Thomas E. Dewey and Actor Frank Morgan, Miss Ada Calvy decided it was about time there was a charm school for men. Packaged charm is being sold to the American girl in every city across the nation, she decided, while her male contemporary still remains a bumbling, awkward brute. "This new line of so-called mas culine perfumes doesn't begin to answer the problem," she sniffed. "Men think it's manly to walk, talk and smell like a tramp." So Miss Calvy, five-foot-five bru nette and northwest director of a well-known women's charm school, is setting up her own version of a charm school "for men only." Not So Bad And the fact that there were so many lumberjacks . J"" and longshoremen in the Pacific northwest had no bearing on Miss Calvy's decision. "Nonsense!" she said. "InNew York City they're just as bad Los Angeles is no better. Only Hank Morgan comes up to snuff. She met the late president and thought he was the "most charm ing man I've ever met." Governor Dewey rates "real nice" in her book. But outside those favored few, she says, the opinion of the aver age American woman about the average American man is low in deed where charm is concerned. Lack Fundamentals "Most men lack the basic fun damentals of charm," she says. "And yet they're mystified when they fail to impress a woman with their 'clever line'." "To most women, the ear Im presses much less than the eye and nose ... if you want the blunt facts."
