ANTI-SEMITISM CITED UNITED NATIONS (NPI) - The United Nations, for the first time, has cited anti-Semitism as a form of prejudice in a key article drafted by the Human Rights commission. UN coun YOU ARE THE DETECTIVE The home of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert L. Seaton has been entered and'burglarized during their absence one afternoon, and their old, toothless collie dog, Buttons, brutally beaten to death. “I don’t mind so much the cash that was taken .. . or the missing jewelry,” cries Mrs. Seaton. “But the sense less killing of our poor old dog! Everyone around here knows hov harmless and gentle he was -- he wouldn’t have hurt even a fly... and In fact, he couldn’t have hurt anyone or any thing even if he had w-anted to, because of his lack of teeth. He never was any kind of watch dog, never even a bark for anyone, whether friend or stranger—but we loved him dearly all the same. I’m glad that our friend, Mrs. Hart, saw the intruder leaving, and I hope that will help you to apprehend the brute who did this:” According to Mrs. Hart’s story, she had been driving past the Seaton home that afternoon and had happened to see a tall, lean, gray-haired man hurrying out of the Seaton yard. You have managed to pin down two men who answer that description. One of them Paul Mueller, lives across the street from the Seaton home, while the other is a house to house salesman of women’s cosmetics who had been canvassing the neighborhood that day. “Surely you aren’t even beginning to suspect me!” ex claims Paul Mueller. “We’ve always been good friends with the Seatons, and as far...” “No one is accusing you of anything, you break In. “This is just a routine checkup.” “And don’t hr- accusing me either,” chimes in Jim Thornton, the salesman. “I haven’t been in this business very long, and I’m trying to work up a good clientele. This was my first visit to this neighborhood, and if you think I’d be stupid enough to break into any of rny prospects houses and steal from them, you’re way off base!” You turn back to Mueller. “You’re sure that you and the Sea tons hove always been on friendly terms - no unpleasantness of any kind': Be sure to tell the truth now, because if you lie to me, I have ways of finding out.” “Most certainly, we’ve always been good friends and neigh bois,” replies Mueller. “Never the slightest disagreement. And as for Buttons, their poor old dog, he was a great favorite in out household. In fact, we used to give him bits of food and meat almost every day when he wandered over to our house.” “And 1 didn’t even know these people,” exclaims the sales man again. “I’ll admit I rang their doorbell earlier this after noon, but when I didn’t get any answer, I left light away and continued on my route., that is, until you caught up with me and started trying to pin this business on me.” You ponder over the matter a few seconds, then point your finger at one of the two men, and say, “You’re coming to head quarters with me on suspicion of this crime!” Which of the two men are you escorting to headquarters, and why? SOLUTION The salesman, Jirn Thornton. The fact that this was his. first trip through the neighborhood and that he didn’t know the Seatons is the big cine. If he had oeen well acquainted, he would certainly have known that the dog, Buttons, was per fectly harmless, no hazard so far as raising an alarm was concern, and that there .would have beer* no need to kill the animal to protect himself,. tries approved the article, call trig for an attack on prejudice by a 15 to 0 vote. The Soviet Union, Poland, the Ukraine, I-. raq, and Jamaica abstained, RACE POLL BELAER, Md.
