Early an Advocate for Preparedness

large house which they had leased
in the Cox Row in Georgetown to
Sir Ronald Campbell of the British
Embassy, and moved to modest,
two-story little white brick house
on Dent place.
Senator Lodge evidently agrees
with Brig. Gen. Patrick Hurley,
United States Minister to New
Zealand, that we should come
quickly to the realization that this
war is our war In recent speech
at reception given him in Christ
Church, wellington, Gen. Hurley
said it was time to quit compliment
ing ourselves on our capacity to
take it and to show the world that
we have the capacity to dish 1t
out"
In these hectic days of war activ-
tiles there is nothing that quiets the
nerves more than an interesting
story-one without isms or "ideers"
such as MacKinlay Kantors
Gentle Annie" which takes the
mind off war news and the tragedies
in the occupied countries of Europe.
Gentle Annie with her astute coy
ness in dealing with the Goss BROTH
ers, her diplomacy in the crooked
environment in which she finds her
self, along with Mr.. Kantors humor
and touch of sentiment, makes this
new mystery story delightful sum-
mer reading.

By Robert Crawford.

Returning last week from the
Middle East where he saw active
service, Maj. Henry Cabot Lodge,
jr.. Republican Senator from Massa-
chusetts, who is a candidate for re-
nomination this fall, expects to have
little time for campaigning as he
has told the War Department he is
available for active duty wherever
he is needed.
Having served some 16 years in
the Army Reserve Corps and since
February as a Reserve officer Of the
Tank Corps, he asked to see real
fighting and was sent to the West
ern African desert in June in COM
mand of unit of picked men from
armored divisions.
Senator Lodge was an honor
graduate in law in Harvard, but sit
ting in a prosy old office looking
at dusty law books did not appeal
to him after his active life at COL
lege, SO he tried newspaper work
| and became a flrst-class reporter
both at home and abroad. Being
chip off the old block, however, he
took to politics like duck to water.
There are three of the late Senator
Lodges grandsons. 1t was thought
some one of the mshould be 'it,"
so Henry Cabot-having the lure of
the name, said he would After
being elected to the Massachusetts,
lower house, at the age of "a, he
stood for the United States Senate
and was elected He is the third of
his line to occupy seat in the
Senate, the first having been George
Cabot, who was Senator from the
Bay State from 1791 to 1896
George Cabot also was a Harvard
man, attending the university from
1868. But the call Of the sea in
herited from his illustrious ances-
tors was evidently too strong and he
left college and went to sea as
cabin boy.
Senator Lodge was not modest
about making his maiden speech
In the august Senate chamber, and
was one of the earliest advocates
Of preparedness-with a big "P"-
astonishing many Of the older men,
bers by pounding away for an ade-
quate force Of fighting planes, and
to raise the peacetime Army to
100000; then asking for universal
military training. Much water has
gone over the dam since then, but
time has proved the foresight of
what was considered the activity Of
an overly enthusiastic youngster.
When the housing problem be-
came more acute In Washington,
due to the influx of war workers,
Senator and Mrs. Lodge sublet the

colored musicians bands depend
largely upon records played over
the radio or in juke boxes for their
popularity as well as part of their
income. White bands can expect to
have considerable air time on the
big chains, thus keeping the organ
i~zation before the public, but Negro
orchestras seldom get a chance to
broadcast. Most Of those who do
have only the smallest of local out-

The Petrillo order is unwarranted
in view Of existing conditions. Phi
critics have ended the manufacture
of juke boxes, which mean than
when those now in use wear out
they cannot be replaced. The cut
in record manufacture is also hav-
ing its effect on nickel-in-a-slot pho
nographs. At the same time, it is
well known that many leading bands
have been hard hit by selective ser
vice, with many of the best music

Moreover, it was brought Out at
the conference that the only oppor-
tunity for service in the navy open
to Negro college students and grad
yates is on the level Of apprentice
seamen. This situation seems par
adoxical, the conference pointed out
when according to authoritative sourc
es, the navy needs a reservoir Of
trained manpower badly.
After discussion of the prevailing
condition, the conference immediate
ly took action by appointing a COM
mittee, consisting Of John w. Davis,
Hrace Mann Bond, president Of Fort
Valley state college, and Charles H.
Thompson, dean of the college of
liberal arts, Howard university. to
carry the conferences protest to
the navy department. When Presi.
dent Davis and Bond were unable
to be in Washington on the date
scheduled for the meeting, Dean
Thompson and Charles H. Houston,
noted Washington attorney, met
with navy representatives.
When Dean Thompson and Mr..
Houston indicated that the group
was interested in seeing that the
navy get good recruit material. and
that it did not want to see all the
intelligent and forceful Negroes en-
ter the army, Mr.. Walker and Dean
Barker said they appreciated this
position and it was probable that
they were missing some fine men
by the limitations on Negroes in the
navy program, but that for the pres
ent the navy felt it had gone as
far as it could in one step"
If the war continues another
two or three years, the committee
declared, the United States navy
would need officers so badly that
the color of the officers would be
immaterial. Mr.. Walker and Dean
Barker evidenced that in that case
"the navy would take the men re-

be allowed to participate as other

made for prospective Negro enlistees
to receive rating through examin-
ations as are now made for pros
pective white e~nlistees.

ference with the understanding that

In an action brought here this

State of New York, James H. HUI
bert, Executive Director of the New

attorney, William T. Garvin of 2i7

Declaring that the Plaintiff, James
H. Hubert, has worked diligently for
the purposes Of the League and sub

detectives and ideals the suit affirms
! that he is well and f%avorably known
to thousands of persons. A Judge

of the action.
A Committee of League members,
headed by the Rev. Gerald Hamll-
ton, Chairman, DIR. March Moreland
and Mr.. Ernest Dimitry, Chairman
and Co-Chairman Of the Investigat-
ing Committee, has been conducting
an inquiry nto the charges. Ac-
cording to a member of the Invest

of certain individuals to gain con-

the labor supply" by encouraging
employers to eliminate from their
job orders any specifications, in
Guiding age or sex, that were not
associated with ability to perform
the job.
The memorandum added that SER
vice was to be withheld entirely
from employers who would not hire
workers for racial or religious reas-
ons and that the same policy was
to apply to refusal to employ aliens
unless the exclusion Of non-citizens
was specifically required by the
Army or Navy.
Labor unions, acting as agents for
employers under closed-shop con-
tracts, will also be denied service if
their membership rules exclude per-
sons solely because of race or crecl,
Mrs. Rosenberg ordered.
