Is a w ord, indeed—
If it be fitly spoken;
For who can know
How great the worth—
A word to a heart that's broken;
But, oh, how swift
Is the word unkind
To wound the heart of a brother.
Better the word be left unsaid
Than speak wrong of another!

.Thomas E. Dewey, like near¬
ly half the Presidents of the
United States, including Abra¬
ham L ncoln, has climbed the
ladder to national political
fame in a state other than one
,.i which he was born.
The New York governor is
a native of Owosso, Mich. In
i selecting New York as his
'“home state” for public service,
j ’ ihe Republican biggest and nominee the toughest chose
I the
state administrative job In the
i nation as his training ground

Since George Washington’s
inauguration in 1789, thirty-
two men have served as presi¬
dents of the United States.
Being born in one state and
becoming pcl’tically identified
with another Jong has been a
habit in American politics.
When Dewey is inaugurated
in January, he will be the
fourteenth President to have
followed this procedure.
The first was Andrew Jack-
son, the seventh President
Jackson was born, so close to
the North Carolina-South Car-
ol na line that historians still
disagree which state was ac¬
tually his birthplace. “Old
Hickory” went to Tennessee to
launch his political career
Tennessee was also the po¬
litical proving ground for two
,thcr North Carolinians, James
T <. Polk, 11th President, who
wap born in Mecklenburg
county, North Carolina, and
Andrew Johnson, 17th Presi¬
dent, who was a native of Ra-
1 igh, North Carolina.
Three presidents, born in
Virginia, made their political
records in other states. These
three Uiree were were William wuutuu Henry uuu } Har no.,
rjson 9th president, who went
from Charles City County, Va.,
to Ohio; Zachary Taylor, 12th
president, born In Orange coun-
tv Va and elected from Lou-
Isiana; and Woodrow .... Wilson
28th President, whose birth¬
place was Staunton, Virginia,
and who was elected from New
Jersey.
New York .provided the poli-
‘ cal experience for two n|on-
native Pmesidtents, Chester A.
Arthur, born in Fairfield, Ver¬
mont; and Grover Cleveland,
born In Caldwell, N J. Like
Dewey, Cleveland was governor
j i f New York.
The revered Abraham Lin¬
j coln, 16th President, moved
from an humble leg cabin in
! what was then, Hardin county,
'Ky, to the White House by way
| of the State of Illinois,
j Ulysses S. Grant, 1'dCh Presi-
! dent, was born in Point Pleas¬
ant, Ohio. A graduate of West
| Point, he resigned his 4J. S.
Army commission in 1854. Six
'years later, he launched wh’ch his
Civil War military career
1 led to the Presidency as an of-
{iecr m the uii n ois National
Qugra Grant had also liveu
lip St. Louis, Mo.
Eenjamni Harrison, 23rd
President, was also born in
; Ohio—North -mum. Bend—but chose
,, j n ^i ana tor his political, ca¬
■; reer
1 The last two Republican
| presidents—Calvin Coolidge and
1 > I Herbert Hoover— both belong
to the distinguished group who
• ’ | blazed paths of statesmansh.p
outside their native states.
Coolidge, 30th president,
was born, at Plymouth, Ver¬
mont, went to Massachusetts to
attend college, stayed to be¬
come the State's governor and,
later, the nation’s president.
Hoover, 31st President, was
born at West Branch, Iowa. He
became an internationally-
known mining engineer and,
for the greater part of his pub¬
lic career, has been identified
as a citizen of California.
Mr. Hoover, incid<titaJVy,
the only American alive who
has ever been elected to the
Presidency by vote of the peo¬
ple, an honor he will share af¬
ter November with Thomas E.
Dewey.
No Jim Crow
In British
Honduras
WASHINGTON, (ANPi—There
is no segregat.on in British
Honduras, according to Father
Gerald Fairweather of the An-
gelican diocese of British Hon¬
duras, Central America, despite
the fact that the inhabitants
are an intermixture of Spanish,
Mexican and Maya Ind'ans.
In a radio interview by Tom¬
linson D. Todd, president of
the Institute on Race Relations,
over station WOOK Sunday,
Father Fairweather, who is
guest of Father A. A- Birch, the
vicar of St. Georges chapel,
said he was quite impressed
with this country and that he
had met some very nice people,
both white and colored.
In relating some historical
background of his country, the
father said British Honduras is
about the size of Palestine. Its
area is a little more than 8,000
square miles. The land is very
fertile and the large fertile
plains in the north will grow
anything omrlh that can be grown in
the tropics. Although the
northwestern section is h lly
the scenery is lovely. There
are five bathing beaches on the
coast and the islands dotting
the coast.
Before 1798, he continued,
the British buccaneers on the
Caribbean discovered thai
there were valuable woeds in
the country. They settled on
the spot known as Belize ani
imported slaves for the cutt ng
of mahogany and logwood from
this area. Although the Maya
Indians were the aboriginal
inhabitants of British Hondu¬
ras, the whole of Central and
Soutly America at that time
was claimed by by Spain
Shortly after the British
settled there, they were at¬
tacked by the Span’ards. With
the aid of the African slaves,
the enemy was defeated at the
battle of St. George's Bay on
Sept. 10, 1798. The people o
British Honduras today are de
scendants of the people who
defended the colony. Segrega¬
tion was never known there
because it was the slaves them
selves who were responsible
for the freedom of the coun¬
try, and the greater part ol
the community is composed of
the descendants of those very
slaves.
Freedom of religion is prac¬
ticed there, he sa'd. There are
approximately ten different de¬
nominations, including the
Church of England, the Roman
Catholic, the Methodist, the
Baptist and the Presbyterian
Faiths.
