10/25

Msgr. J.A Ryan and Dr. W.B. Cannon died recently. Eugene still in bed with no temperature. I stayed home today with a sore throat. Sylvia is getting stars for not wetting herself at night lately. Labor is against military training. Eugene drew "Happy Days" by Drs. Charters Smiley and Strang and "Lets take Turns" by Nemec, a Democracy Reader. Rank and file longshoremen have rejected Ryan's contract with the shipowners. Over 200,000 people rallied in Madison Square yesterday for a Jewish refuge in Palestine. Speakers were Louis Lipsky, Rabbi Israel Goldstein, Louis Hollander, Tom Murray of the AFL. Nine Congressmen condemned the Rankin committee in a "House" session as Rankin answered in anti-semitic and anti-negro terms. Export Import Bank loans to Soviet Russia and Eastern Europe people's gov'ts are being withheld. Budenz was sponsored and mentored by Msgr. Sheean and Ford's in laws. The Hollywood strike is over, with reinstatement as of March 9, recognition of Painters local 1421. Dr. Ley has committed suicide in his cell. MacArthur has ordered Japan to cease relations with other countries. Fleming has won the Nobel Prize for Medicine.

Perhaps he crossed out that first name because he realized that he had noted his death last month.
