Inside Indianapolis

ANY MAN who has had 25 different automobiles, several teams of horses; and buggies and bicycles has" done plenty of traveling. But when almost all the dis‘tance has been driven on Indianapolis streets that is somewhat of a record in itself.

That is the case of Dr. Sumner A. (The Whistler) Furniss, Negro physician who has watched speedometers roll into thousands and thousands of miles to treat a countless number of patients,

" The T2-year-old, white-haired doctor is named

after Charles Sumner, nigeteenth century orator and - | statesman who was an early proponent of emancipa-

tion, © “Doc” Furniss is credited with several firsts. According to the Indianapolis Medical society, he is one of the oldest physicians still actively engaged in general practice, which he has been doing here for Although he has reduced his daily schedule of hours he plans to keep up his practice because he is fascinated, after all these years, with “doctoring.” Probably the first Negro ever to serve as an interne in an Indianapolis - hospital, Dr. Furniss likes to reminisce about the old days in Indianapolis when the north side of Ohio st. from Illinois st. to Pennsylvania st. was referred to as “medical row.” It was along this row that he clerked as a stenographer in Dr. E. S. Elder's office to pay for his three years’ education at the Indiana medical college, He was graduated as an honor student in 1894. At that time the tollege was located where the Citizens Gas & Coke Utility Co. now stands on S. Pennsylvania st. Dr. Furniss was born in 1874 in Jackson, Miss.

"Attended Grade School Here

WHEN THE FAMILY moved to Indianapolis about 1880, Dr, Furniss began his grade school education at School 4 on W, Michigan st. He later attended school 13 on Buchanan st. and was constantly being reprimanded fore whistling in class Whistling remains one of his favorite pastimes today at home or work. After his college graduation and a year as interne at City hospital, he opened his first office at 132 W, New York st. As he recalls it, “I must have been lucky for I never had any trouble getting started.” Since then he has served three and four generations of many families. Some of his patients have become so attached to him they refuse medical attention from other doctors when Dr. Furniss is vacationing. His friends report he always has been able to Berve other interests. He helped organize and was the first president of the colored Y, M. C. A. here. He was one of the early members of the Flanner House whose board of directors have made him a life member for his outstanding service. He is a member of the city board of health and charities. He has held but one public office; city councilman in 1920 during the Jewett administration,

“Likes Fraternal Organizations

A FIRM BELIEVER in fraternal organizations, for the last 25 years he has been sovereign grand commander of the supreme council for the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite (Prince Hall affiliation). His most prized piece of jewelry today is a diamond lapel pin awarded him recently by the councils 300 members who assembled here last week in his honor. Between council meetings he rules the affiliation and

HERFORD, Germany, May 18—Unless grains for bread come at once, 9,000,000 people face acute hunger. Slow starvation is all it is now, a public health official said. By the end of May another 13,000,000 will be almost as hungry. So said high-ranking officials of the British zone in a frank outline of conditions. The basic ration for the 9,000,000 light and nonworkers is 1050 calories a day. You can’t live on .it many months said a doctor. The supplementary food stocks the ‘Germans have had since the end of the war are gone. Unless we get grain, the worst seems inevitable. The 1050-calory daily diet consists of four slices of bread, a square inch of meat, a tablespoon of cereal, another of turnips, a half-feaspoon of sugar, quarter of a pint of skim milk, a teaspoon of jam and half a cup of substitute coffee. Will the grain. come, was the question. Herbert Morrison will have to answer that was the reply.

Tuberculosis on Increase

The British zone faces a desperate future. Only a fourth of the population lives on farms. The present grain and potato crop is 30 per cent below

normal. It is the old question of poor seed and no fertilizer. There have been no potatoes to eat since December.

With crop harvesting three months away, there has been a sharp increase in tuberculosis noted

Aviation

THERE'S ALL the difference in the world between flying an airplane for yourself and flying it for the safety and comfort of someone else. When he is flying for himself, with no one else in the plane, a pilot develops his own psychological f'ant on handling the controls. When he wants to climb, he climbs at an angle that suits him. When he wants to descend, he chooses the angle. If the air is rough, and he is in a hurry, he plows right on at the regular cruising speed. The bumps are rougher, of course, as reactions of a boat are more violent when driven at high speed through rough water. The pilot seldom becomes airsick when he is flying the plane. Surprising as it may seen, however, I know of many instances where pilots have become airsick when being flown—as we call it “roughly”— by other pilots. Why? I don't know, except possibly that when flying the plane himself he “feels” the anticipgtory warnings in the -controls, hence quickly accommodates himself to the resultant behavior of the ship. This, I believe, is the key.

New Pilots Get ‘Education’

I DON'T KNOW how much lecturing the returned combat pilots are receiving from their airline mentors, but it seems to me that a thorough course in the psychological difference between flying for yourself— which is largely the military way of flying—and flying for someone else (passengers) would be essential. I do know, however, that when assigned for active

. co-pilot work, the returned combat airman gets a

liberal education from the old hands who have been. flying the airlines for years. Soon we will be moving into another phase of

My Day

NEW YORK (Friday) .—Last night T went to a benefit performance of “On Whitman Avenue” for the Southern Conference for Human Welfare. In a little speech, Clarke Foreman told us they had chosen this play because it deals with a situation which is not just a southern situation, but a national one which we as a nation have to face. Their -organization has to be a national one because we have to deal with these questions not merely as they affect the south. We must recognize these things affect the life and thinking of our whole people. " The ‘Southern Conference needs help from the north, not for the south alone but for the north as well, since one cannot segregate thinking. Thoughts cross invisible lines and permeate the country as a whole. This problem of race” relations is present in every part of our nation, “On Whitman Avenue,” in which Canada Lee plays the principal role, is really a very interesting play. I had read it in manuscript. Last night was the first time I had seen it on the stage.

Easier to Be a Little People

I CAN understand why some of the critics here in New York gave this play bad reviews. None of the reasons which they gave will be the real reasons why it will not play to full houses. -

quite frequently drives to Philadelphia where national headquarters are located. His four-year old Buick sedan, he conservatively estimates, is his 25th automobile. The first car was a one-cylinder “chug-chug” Oldsmobile steered by a handle. The impetus of the fly-wheel under the seat was a jarring sensation he can’t forget, An inveterate reader, he subscribed to 20 different magazines and has several living room bookcases lined with classical and technical volumes. A maroon mohair chair is his favorite nook and always there is a supply of cigars available. Although he doesn't like to admit to the number, he chews six or seven stogies each day. He has tried smoking cigarets but invariably he bites them. Because his older brother studied medicine, Dr. Furniss followed suit. His 76-year-old brother, who has served in the American consular service in Bahia, Brazil and as minister to Haiti, still hangs his doctor's shingle on an office door in New Hartford, Conn. A young nephew recently served overseas in the medical corps with the U, 8S. air forces, Dr. Furniss readily admits he is healthy. Since he quit making night calls and performing obstetrical operations several years ago, he gets more rest; going to bed after the 10 p. m~ newscast and getting up early in the morning to tinker around his 12-room house at 834 N. West st. He has no children. His wife died four years ago. Just he, his housekeeper, two Spitz dogs and “Black Eye,” a cat, live in the home. Health! In the last 51 years he has been ill only two weeks and then he wouldn't go to bed. (By William Eggert),

throughout the zone. The death rate among the old and babies is increasing. Fainting, accidents and absenteeism in coal mines are also on the upgrade.

Four Starve to Death

The . food-rationing system is the same as the| -

Germans used during the war. There are 190 industrial categories, depending on type of labor and hours worked. Miners are given supplementary rations at the pits, but get the basic at home and usually give it to hungry members of their family. Office workers—clerks and so forth—get the 1050calorie ration. There have been four deaths directly attributable to starvation on a 1250-calorie ration at an internment camp, doctors said. The effects of malnutrition, now that hoarded foods have been exhausted, soon may show among the urban population and the decline is steep -when it starts. England, so reported those who have just returned, is in no position to aid, being hungry itself. It is obvious from all remarks that America is the only hope not only for this zone, but the others, and for Holland, Poland and other countries as well.

“I seem to be fighting against a tide of indiffer-|

ence,” said a high official. Those who see are convinced of the need. Too few see and they often say, “They starved others, let them starve.” We cannot produce coal and rebuild Industry, or rebuild Germany on starvation.

flying as more private airplanes become available and more pilots fly solo one day and fly ‘their friends next-day. Those two conditions mean the cultivation of two radically different types of thinking. When solo, it's your own neck. When someone is with you, then whatever you do or plan to do must be weighed in terms of regard for not only the safety of another but also for his peace of mind. Both items are of vital importance.

Finds Relief in Flying for Self PERSONALLY, I don't, and never did, like to fly sthers. Not because I like to fly recklessly. Far from it. But there is a real relief in flying for yourself and not being bothered about how your flying affects the mental comfort of another. Only old airline polits are aware of the alertness of the passenger to the different sound levels of fight. Just watch the people around in a transport. Let the motors set up ‘the uneven rhythm of unsynchronized motors (where one motor “is turning faster than the other), and note the quick turning of passenger attention from the window or reading. They have caught the out-of-step sound of the motors. They don't understand it. Their first re-

Clark Springer’s promise to get liquor out of politics and get it out once and for all time was the subject of widespread speculation. Principal question was what effect the promise would have on the campaign of William E. Jenner, Mr. Springer’s predecessor. » " »

UNTIL THIS WEEK the Republican organization has played the windmill to Rep. Charles LaFollette’s “Don Quixote.” Mr. LaFollette, red-haired 8th district congressman, has hurled charge after charge at Mr. Jenner and at the state organization, both of whom maintained a sphinx-like silence on the liquor question.

Mr. LaFollette has charged that county chairmen and their friends who obtained liquor or beer wholesalers’ licenses while Mr. Jenner was chairman were backing the former chairman for senator, And while Mr, LaFollette threw sticks into the political apple tree, the third senatorial candidate, Raymond E. Willis, was getting about an even share of the fruits that fell. » » » WHETHER OR NOT Mr. LaFollette has been correct in his charges, | observers were convinced that Mr. Jenner was getting a certain amount of strength from the belief of party leaders that he was the organization's choice.

It seemed ceptain that whatever measures Mr. Springer had in mind for the divorce of liquor from politics, they would include opening the gates to all comers for wholesale licenses, and result in a lot less security for the present licensees.

POSSIBILITY that the Senatorial race might expand came in for another flurry of speculation this week, Strongest belief current at the moment was that Forrest Harness, 5th district congressman, was hankering for a crack at the

senatorship. Purveyors of this theory hold that Rep. Harness is assuming the

party to be definitely committed against Senator Willis, and that the “favorite son,” Mr. Jenner, has been too badly scarred by the liquor attacks to win in November. Talk of Charles Halleck, 2d District congressman, as a “dark horse” candidate, was being widely discounted. Rep.

EXPECT 1800 AT DENTISTS’ MEETING

, More than 1800 dentists will be in Indianapolis tomorrow for the opening of a four-day convention of the Indiana Dental association at the Claypool hotel. Meeting at the same time will be the Indiana Dental Assistants’ association, observing its silver anniversary. Sessions will open tomorrow with refresher courses at Indiana university dental school. Lectures and

clinical demonstrations are on the program for Monday, Tuesday and

action is to look around and at other passengers. They cover this instinctive move quickly by an all too evident attempt at nonchalance. ohserver, however, they have already confessed their curiosity about what is going on.

DEAR MISS TILLIE—Teachers

a sympathetic fellow-worker to lend that the more they talk about being tired, the nearer they approach the state of collapse! (Did you ever notice if there's no one around to listen to your sighs of exhaustion, you forget to sigh?) Of course, with teachers, it's not all talk, Their job is different from most. They often meet as many as 200 different personalities a day, meet them, adjust to them, and are in contact with them for six hours | with scarcely a moment off, not| even for a drink of water, ” " ” THE SALES CLERK may meet some hundred people a day, too; but her concern is in the sale, not in the person. The factory worker may be one of a hundred men working in close contact; but he’s not responsible for the other 99, and he can walk out for a breath of air when the going gets too heavy.

With teachers, it's that burden of responsibility for the children that they carry with them all day, every day, every week-end, month after month, that makes their job different, and makes them so tired. It's not the teaching; it’s not the brain work that's exhausting. It's the feeling of being accountable for so many things for so many people —for the progress of the people, for their habits of work, for their safety, for the standards they are forming, even for their thinking. » » ~ TEACHERS always are planning how to bring out the best that's in each child. When they leave school at the end of the day, they take much more than papers home to grade. They take the children with ‘them,

Do You Know— There's a chance your children are being taught by the poorest trained instructors hired by schoel boards since teacher-training laws were passed? That the recent policy.has been “overboard with teacher-training laws?” That tickets of admission to the teaching profession are now emergency permits—175,000 of them granted this year to underqualified teachers? That in our own state of Indiana 10 per cent of the teaching force is working on this basis? There's a 10 to 1 chance your children will spend some time in classes taught by emergency permit holders. » r ” AND HOW DOES one obtain this entrance card to teaching? Easily enough. Any high school graduate who attended summer school in 1945 and thereby earned eight hours’ credit, including methods of teaching in elementary school subjects, may have one; or, persons with 30 college credits, regardless of whether these credits were earned recently or half a century ago, or whether any work in methods of teaching was ever done, may obtain fit. We who have qualified with six years of expensive preparation know these facts well. We know, too, 200,000 teachers quit during the war years, took jobs that paid more than bare living wages. And why not? They had found themselves earning less sometimes than the boys in ‘their classrooms made in after school jobs. Pay of custodians sometimes exceeded theirs.

William E. SBteckler, local attorney and veteran of world war II, was scheduled to become the Democratic member of the state election board today to succeed David M. Lewis who resigned. Mr. Steckler was recommended for the post yesterday by state Chairman Fred Bays. Under the law the governor is bound to appoint one member of each party to the board on the recommendation of the state chairman of the two parties.

Othman's Tr Paris in Spring; Reporter Goes

Sentimental

By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN United Press Staff Correspondent PARIS, May 8.—Ah, Paris In the spring! Chestnut trees flower= ing white. Ancient gray buildings turning purple in the dusk. Rain glistening on Montmartre's cobble= stones. See? Every reporter visiting Paris has gone misty-eyed at its beauty and sat himself down at his typewriter to bang out a sentimens tal masterpiece. These essays moste ly come up goo, Well, sir, I've got that sentimens tal feeling. The urge is strong to make a fool of myself in print. And what would you do?

We, the Wome The Wedding

Presents Py

Earned by Wife

By RUTH MILLETT ACCORDING to the ruling of a California judge, when a wife and husband decide to call it quits all wedding presents are the wife's to keep. And why not? She usually earns them. To begin with, she has all the thank-you notes to write—even the ones that go to her husband's old girl friends. Then she has to figure out which gifts can be exchanged without rune ning the risk of offending the giver, And she does the exchanging. » ” . 7 FURTHERMORE, she has to cook fancy dinners for the friends who come through with handsome gifts, “I don't care about spending an evening with them any more than you do,” she tells her new husband, “but, after all, they did send us » dozen dinner forks.” er And it is the little woman who has to remember, year after year, which relative sent what. So when Grandma comes to visit, the blue vase will have a prominent place on the mantel, and when it is Aunt Nellie who is honoring the young folks with a few days’ stay, the rose bedspread will be on the guest-room bed. #8 =n THEN THERE are al] the bits of bric-a-brac that looked lovely to the bride, but which proved to be mere headaches when a two-room furnished apartment replaced the “little white cottage” of her dreams, . They're her headaches; it's up to her to find storage space for them, Nothing could be fairer in any divorce settlement than that the wife get the wedding gifts for keeps, She is the one who earned them.
