Chief of Bureau of Supplies

Acute.

More storage facilities on the West

ties at Hampton Roads Va, for the
Navy were advocated today by Rear
Admiral Charles Conard, chief Of the
Bureau Of Supplies and Accounts. Navy
Department, and paymaster general,
In his annual report to Secretary
Swanson.
There is an acute shortage of COW
cred storage in the San Diego and
San Francisco Bay areas and steps
must be taken to provide adequate
storehouses In the near future in
order to supply the needs Of the fleet
and shore stations" declared the ad-
miral. THE situation at Mare Island,
(Calif.) was made more serious
through the destruction by fire May
IS. 1897, Of the oil storehouse, Building
No. 10. and four wooden storage
platforms. Replacement of these
structures by modern fireproof
building, in suitable location, is an
urgent necessity and it is hoped that
funds will be available for the purpose
at an early date"
Pointing to the steady advance in
oil prices during the year, Admiral
Conard asserted that the increased
use Of oil for home heaters has
decreased the supply Of heavy fuel
oil Of grades suitable for use afloat.'

THE RECORD SPEAKS

THE RECORD SPEAKS
At the close of the old year,
all of us had am opportunity to
see Just how important it is to
the group as a whole for some
of Us during a given year, to
break some kind of a eonstruc-
tive record. We saw Jesse Ow-
ems paaded at the top of the
list in the sports marathon. Who
could help but feel proud of this
achievement, and what colored
man or woman, boy or girl, did
not feel a thrill of exultation
when The cold record forced
people who, otherwise, would
not notice a colored man, no
matter how good and respect
able he might be. The record
of Owens and what followed
shows that we simply must put
our shoulder to the wheel, and
by some herculean effort, go
over the heads Of everybody
else to the front rank, and here
shine for the benefit of all Of
us. Only a few cam do it, but
those few should feel it their
duty to do it whenever they
can. They should not shirk, nor
should they give up easily be-
cause the going is a little tough.
There is too much at stake for
shallow reasons or thin excuses.
Alter all, one young man raised
the Negro group in America to
worldwide attention. No mat
ter what the sacrifice, it was
worth it.
On the other hand, it would
be unfair to us not to point out
that most of our record-break-
ers seem to be individuals. We
gether very well. In short, we
do notco-operate, neither IN
'worknor play. Many people
question the amount of time
and energy put into our grid
iron clashes in our schools and
do not seem to do things to-
colleges, but this writer believes
it is a good thing if for no 9th
er reason than that it is teach
ing the Merge, on a mass scale,
to work together, intelligently,
to work together. The team has
to win. The school knows the
value of pulling for the team.
The state and section is proud
when the championship comes
home. An instance of this was
having a turkey feast for the
the Virginia State College boys
first time in five years-a cham
pionship feast. Everybody was
happy, from President j. M.
Candy, down.
If our youth are taught the
scientific reason for co-opera-
ton in their play, we will have
a better and stronger group IN
our racial and national life as
these youth go out into the
world. 1t is mainly because
those among us who have the
spotlight today were not taught
how to play together, that we
work together so poorly. That
attitude causes all to suffer, in
that we get so few champions,
right when We need them the
most.
