Close to political suppression of news in Roosevelt era
An editorial lamenting a 1939 social security act secrecy rule that blocked press access to welfare spending. It argues the prohibition hid over two billion dollars in federal aid, enabling political power gains, and criticizes lawmakers for repealing or failing to repeal the no publication clause. It ties Arkansas welfare rolls to broader national issues.

VFW Cancer Fund Brings Hope to Michigan Children
A VFW Ladies Aux cancer research fund started in 1847 grew into a gift of hope for ill children at Detroit's Children's Hospital of Michigan. From a $4.5k grant purchase of cortisone, gifts rose to $5,000.06 in 1950 and later to $15,000.00, boosted by Dr. William Lutz's Detroit News article and the Aux's national drive. The fund backs treatment costs with no salaries or overhead, aiding cases of leukemia infections and severe illness at the hospital, with support also traced to the Ramsey-Cargile Aux and sales drives urging humane contributions.
