ALExANDRETTA.HATAY

Philatelically. at least. the Syrian
port of ALHXANDRETTA at the
extreme northeastern end Of the
Mediterranean Sea, has witnessed
some rather bewildering changes.
Originally a part of pre-war
Turkey. this region, together with
the rest OF Syria, was occupied by
French troops during the World
War, and, subsequently. was man
dated to France by the Treaty OF
Versailles.
In 1888 a series Of twenty-six
Syrian stamps were oyerprinted
"Sandjak d'Alexandrette" District
OF Alexandrettal. and. later In the
year, five of these PROFESSIONALS re-
ceived a second overprint to COM
memorate the death OF President
Ataturk OF Turkey. Early In 1893
the word "Hatsy'' was used postally
The Omaha guide., 1939-09-23

for the first time when fourteen
Turkish stamps were ogerprinted
"Hatay Devleti" Government of
Ha..y). Thus no less than forty
five PROFESSIONALS we're issued for
use In this territory within less
than a years time.
The latest development arises
from the announcement in Paris
recently Of the signing of a pact
whereby Hatay Tor Alexandretta)
has been handed back to Turkey to
which it originally belonged. Re-
ports from Istanbul indicate that
Republic OF Hatay' stamps have
been prepared but have been held
back pending Political develop
ments. Whether these will now be
issued, or whether the ~overprinted
PROFESSIONALS now in circulation will
be discontinued In favor OF Turkish
stamps is a question that only tims
will answer.

out as a model worthy of imi-

youth who are in quest of a field
in which to exploit their powers
and talent. Here lies before him
a constituency to which he Is

harvest is indeed white; but alas,
the qualified and willing labor

The AME church was founded
more than a century ago to exam
plify the self-sovereignty Of the
race in spiritual affairs. But 1t
soon broadened its scope to in
clude secular as well as sacred
interests. In the field of econo-
mics, industry politics and educa-
ton, the Negroes sphere is cir
~cumscribed, regulated and control
led by white overlords where
ever their interest find a free
field, and wide open opportunities
limited only by "heart within and
God overhead"
The venture of the church into
broader fields outside of religious
life was accentuated by the era
of reconstruction, whose dispen-
| sation added the political dimen-
| sion to his sphere of activity. The
function of Prophet Priest and
King became confused. The
preacher and the politician were
| often combined in in the same per-
son. The separation of church and
state has never been accepted as
a tenet of the AME. church. The
transfer of spiritual authority tc
the political field has been sane
toned as an essential part of its
policy. It has thus run the risk
of mourning the evil repute which
has accompanied the union Oh
church and state throughout the
history of Christiandom.

Antitrust Laws Stem
From Old Tradition,
Arnold Asserts
Trade Association
Executives Are Told
Referee Is Needed

The enforcement of antitrust
laws is the problem of the con-
tinuous direction of economic
traffic and not a mere destructive
agency, Assistant Attorney General
Thurman w. Arnold told members
Of the American Trade Association
Executives, meeting today at the
Mayf1oWer Hotel.
Mr.. Arnold spoke on Business
and the Antitrust Laws at the
opening meeting of a two-day con-
ference. He told the more than
200 men, representing all types Of
business and industry all over the
country, that "the antitrust laws
represent one of our oldest economic
traditions"
He said the laws represented "the
ideal of a society which produces
and distributes through free, inde-
pendent, competitive enterprise"
"They also represent recognition
of the fact that the maintenance Of
competitive conditions is impossible
unless firm action is taken against
the tendency of private groups to
restrain competition in their own
interests" he declared.
Competition, he said, "is a kind
OF game which requires a referee

Banned QUESTIONABLE,
House Group Hears
BY the,Associated Press.

By theiAssociated Press.
The House committee investigat-
ing the w. P. A. heard testimony
today that a Government official
and the Workers Alliance had
blocked its efforts to learn the
political Affiliations of relief workers
on certain New York City projects.
Representative Woodrum, Demo-
crat, of Virginia said the Daily
Worker, newspaper he described as
Communistic, advised w. P. A. en-
ployes not to answer the question:

committee from Acting w. P. A. Ad-
ministrator Howard Hunter saying

get replies to only 70 questionnaires

Theater and Arts projects. OF these,

so it seems" Representative
Woodrum said, that the advice of
the Daily Worker and the admin
istrative action of the w. P. A.
stopped you from getting your ques-
tionnaires answered"
"Yes sir, it did," Mr.. Burton re-
piled.
A moment before, Mr.. Burton said
the alliance "and its Communist
affiliations" largely control the w.
P. A. Federal Arts Project in New
York City.
Mr.. Burton testified he had heard
criticism in New York" that it was
difficult for unemployed persons
with stage experience to get jobs
on the w. P. A. theater projects,
and that Communists, the Workers
Alliance and the like" had succeeded
in placing their members on jobs
at the sacrifice of persons more in
need of aid
Il am prepared to submit testi-
mony to show that employment on
the Federal arts projects is largely
controlled by the Workers Alliance
and its Communist affiliations" Mr..
Burton said.

Plan for Pensions II
For Congress May Go
Into Civil Service Bill
Members and Treasury
Would Beor About
Equal Shares Of Cost
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A quiet campaign to give pensions
to members of Congress has ma
terialized into legislation which
sponsors hope to hook to a civil
service bill.
Chairman Ramspeck of the House
Civil Service Committee said yes
terday he intended to add provisions
for the pensions to a bill making
amendments to the civil service law
which has just been passed by the
Senate.
Under the Ramspeck proposal, the
Government and members of Con-
gress would bear about equal shares
of the cost. Five per cent of the SAL
aries of each Senator and Represent
ative would be deducted monthly for
the purpose and Representative
Ramspeck said, would 60 toward the
purchase for each member Of an an
nuity which would be added to the
amount to be paid each beneficiary
by the Government.
Civil service workers, under the
existing retirement plan. are guar
anteed a pension which increases
according to their length of service.
They contribute 3l2 per cent of their
salaries.
1--WE have about 100000 workers
covered under this system now" Mr..
Ramspeck said. "and I don't see
where there could be any criticism Of
members of Congress if they place
themselves on the same basis"
He said almost every member he
had talked to favored the general
idea.
They're getting security minded,
Representative Ramspeck said,
laughing.

He pointed out that combinations
which actually contribute to the ef-
ficiency of mass production should
not be destroyed; that concerted
action on the part of groups of COM
petitors in order to insure orderly
marketing conditions should not be
considered unreasonable and that
where competition has been de-
stroyed mere imposition of penalties
does not recreate it. Economic dis
location in great industries must be
avoided, he said.
Mr.. Arnold answered more than
go questions from his listeners in
the forum which followed his
speech.
