Views On The WAACs And Negro Women

and the Importance OF pressing

ripe She stated that her WAAC
uniform entities her to admission
TO any place In Washington
Lieutenant West feels that the
sooner we get more recruits. the
sooner we will have more Negro
officers. The presence OF Uniform
eo lieutenants will stimulate
more interest When these women
explain fully the purpose and
procedure Of the WAACs, there
will be more willingness 10 en-
Est Negro women are not quick
10 give up the things they know
and are sure Of. and the Jobs
they have fought for for some

We were very pleased to re-
ceive personal message from
Lieutenant West which was sont
to us by Major George T Gif-
ford. chief Of personnel OF The
WAACs in Washington We had a
long interview with him during
recent "trip 10 Washington and
discussed several WAYS that the
Army could correct its not too
perfect procedure IN dealing with
Negro women One of our chief
arguments was that the Armv's
p0licv OF allowing only 10 per
cent OF the total number Of
tralnees 10 be Negro women. as
based upon our population be
abandoned immediately on the
ground that there was a need
for capable women 10 assist IN

THE CHOIR's ANNUAL TEA
(By W. HARVEY HILL

By W. HARVEY HILL
Now I attend tn" choir's teas,
For there is lots to hear and
see;
II matters not the time with me
For that's the place I'm sure to be.
II you don't care to hear them
sing
Now is the time to 60,
You may enjoy the very thing
You've never liked before.
This happens every year you know
Like other things must onward 60
Their standard raised above the
foe
As they go marching to and fro
The pastor is nice, he's small
and cute,
He hasn't the ways OF a high
Zoo lutte"
When It comes to that you can
take II from me,
He's the noisest one at the choir's
tea.
Just go right in and rest your hat,
Keep quiet, don't ask me this or
that:
Have patience yourself and you
will see
How grand to attend the choir's
tea.
You have an ear for music,-so
Just sing for them before YOU go.
Your presence then in vain won't
be-
When you attend the choirs tea.
Now you may hear some person
say
Just don't like II any way;
Some sort'a critic they may be
They've never attended a social
tea.
BE fair TO yourself, don't be de-
ceived
By everything you hear;
Keep all you can, just take a
stand.
And you'll attend next year.

Back Where We Started From

In the processes of destroying human life and
property through the world has witnessed
steady advance in efficiency But the struggle to lift
the character of mankind to higher level goes on
ceaselessy without appreciabe gains.
When one makes comparisons between the pres
ent and what has come to be known as the first
World War two features stand out stIikingly One is
Of similarity and the other Of contrast In all matters
pertaining to the weapons Of warfare, their improve
ment in number and in power and the wide range of
their application, the war now being fought marks
methods seem almost primitive.
But in the realm Of ideas psychological, the
world does not appear to have made any progress at
ALL Science and invention have gone forward with
swift and mighty strides within the past twenty-five
years. but accomplishment in bettering he conditions
under which the masses of the world live and in pro-
noting honor and justice i'll human relations has
Jagged or stood still The radio and airplane have
made new and different world since 1914-1918, but
as for the attainment of noble aspirations we are
right back where we started from.

American Planes
Superior To
Those Of Enemy

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 - 1t.
Gen. Henry H. Arnold, Chief of the
Army Air Forces, said American
airplanes generally are superior to
those of the enemy. He said that
in the Pacific theater since the war
started LILO army planes have bat
tied with 1,459 Japanese aircraft
and have shot down 1870 with the
loss of only 104 These figures do
not include planes destroyed on the
ground, those shot down by anti
aircraft fire, navy and marine
corps action, or the work of the
American Volunteer forces in
China.
Gen. Arnold said the goal Of
z, 1000, ,000-man air force with 1876 900
fighting planes would be met. He
said the recruitment and training
of pilots, bombardiers and navigat-
ors is progressing perfectly. There
is, however, growing demand for
gunners, various enlisted technici-
ans, radio operators and /der pi-
lets. Gen. Arnold said American
planes are arriving in Britain every
day in preparation for the aerial
offensive against Germany in union
with the Raj.
1t. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower,
Commander of U. S. Army forces
in the European theater, said in
London that training of U. S. units
there must be intensive in all it's
phases. This is true" he said,
first, because the time is short;
second, because the problems we
have demand the ultimate in train
ed personnel; and third, because
our men must be toughened and
hardened physically to stand the
most rigorous operations.

How Many Men?

Judging from official announcements, we have
about four million men in the Army and one million
in the Navy, total of five millions under arms, as
contrasted with 3673,888 in the Army and 260162 in
the Navy at the close of World War l. Apparently
we are going expanding the Army to goal of
some 10 millions.
Isn't it about time considered calling halt?
The course of this raises strong question whether
we do anything with 10 million soldiers. Already
we are having difficulty getting manpower for pro
duction Doubling the size of the Army taking
another five millions from the production force that
already is insufficient to service the present Army
plus allies. This would seem good time for
striking balance, before it is too late.
