PRESSURE NAY KEEP
AT FEPC

Washington, Jan. IL CAMP =.
Rumors r rife that pressure
brought to bear has almost caus-
ed Lawrence Cramer, executive
secretary of the FEPC, to recon-
slider and withdraw his contemp-
lated resignation despite the offer
received from Harvard university
to teach at that school.
No comment was made on the
matter by those close to Mr.. Crf,-
mer, but there are those who say
the possibility of a post in the
state department would be more
to Mr.. Cramer's fancy than the
teaching post at Harvard.
While the whole thing is still in
the air, the executive secretary is
carrying out the functions of his
office capably and, as he explained
to the group of Negro editors who
were assembled in his office on
Dec. 8, with a view of establish

and ice conditions now prevailing
may bring a traffic death or ser
ious injury to some member of
your community unless every dri
yer takes proper precautions, Cap
c. J. Sanders of the state safet
patrol warned today.
ANY owner who knows that his
car is not fully prepared to meet
winter hazards should have the
good sense not to drive wilIlH
street and road conditions are ex-
tremely slippery" he said.
ANY car owner who is not sure
his brakes are equalized should
have them tested Immediately and
put on his tire chains while skid
ding is such a hazard.
Headlights, windshield wipers
and defrosters should be tested
and weak or defective ones re-
placed. There is no excuse for
cars with one dead headlight on
inadequate windshield vision.
These hazards are always danger
Gus but more so now when the &c
condition Of streets makes it Gie
ficult to turn cut to avoid hitt'a

ISSUE

ton of the Richmond School board
to adopt a five year plan for the
gradual equalization of white and
Negro teachers salaries, Thurgood
Marshall. special counsel for the

termine how the school boards
action will affect their suit filed
December "a, in the Federal Dis

refused to consider any plan for
equalization in less than IL years.

to have made port under her own
power after being torpedoed, the
U. S. S. Kearny was at sea again
today. fitter to meet the foe even
than on the day she was COM
missioned.
That is because workmen who
repaired her added something to
her speed-a factor which must re-
main secret, even If the knowledge
would give no aid or comfort to the
enemy.
Eleven men gave their lives and
another II were wounded shortly
after midnight on October 16 when
a terrific blast tore a gaping hole
in the Kearnys starboard side,
ripped section of the deck to rib
bons and demolished part OF the
bridge. Through almost super
human effort, the Kearny's crew.
unassisted, brought her to port and
the Navy thought so much of the
feat that many were decorated or
commended.
Temporary repairs were made
after she reached port and the
kearny returned to the United
