Featured at yesterdays meeting
we're union leaders, and the activi-
ties of the colored division of the
Metropolitan Unit.
Mr.. Akers paid tribute to Willy
Arnheim of the American Fedora
ton of Labor, who has been active
in the campaign; John B. Colpoys,
United States Marshal for the Dis
trict, who is publisher of the Trades
Unionist and is prominent in labor

Reported Over the Top.
Mr.. Butler praised activities of
the colored division of the Metro
politan Unit, and called on DR..
Dorothy Boulding Ferebee, vice
chairman of the Metropolitan Unit
in command of the colored division.
DR. Ferebee said her division, more
effective at being part of the
general campaign instead Of being
separate as in past campaigns as
the Capital Unit" had already
gone over the top of its quota with
100 per cent.
Saying her division had lost about
half of it's prospects because they
came within the purview of the
Government Unit, DR.. Ferebee as
signed three reasons for the new
success this year. First, she pointed
to "integration" of the colored unit
with the main campaign, giving the
colored people a feeling of unity
and oneness with the campaign,
which has been reflected in will
ingness to give more and do more y
Secondly, she pointed to the ability
of the colored leaders to come to
the hotel luncheon meetings as
providing an accelerated spirit"
She added, Il hope never again will
they be isolated from such a cam
paign. Isolation is bad for cam
paign."
Sympathy for Foreigners.
The colored people of Washington
she said, emphasizing her third rea-
son. feel a very keen sympathy with
suffering people Of foreign Allies,
because they themselves have ex-
perienced privation.'
"Privations and suffering OF
Negroes" she said, have opend
their hearts to the suffering OF
others"
AS compared to last year, DR.. Fere-
bee said half the number OF colored
givers had given twice the amount
previously contributed. She intro
duced DR.. Howard B. Long, head OF
a team, which she said had raised
large part of the divisions quota.
Reports from all teams in the divl-
sion, she said, had reached quotas
varying from 80 per cent up to 300
of quota.
Mr.. Butler praised several men,
bers of other parts o. the Metro
politan Unit, including Mrs. Harold
N. Marsh, vice chairman OF the resi-
Dental section; Mrs. Harrison Rey-
nolds, of the Richmond Park Divi-
sion; Mrs. Frederick Mitchell of Far

new session is under way. The COM

new Congress will be much better
than in the session that is now so

PORTLAND, Greg, Nov. 7.-Gov-
ernment officials asked Portland to-
day to accept the OPA's meat quotas

obtained under the quotas until
January /.
Secretary of Agriculture Wickard,

Director Davis and Civilian Defense
Director Land sent messages to

around until the new quotas are
received.

Ing Happy Birthday" and Merry

The Board of War Communica.
tions directed the telegraph COM
panies to refuse such messages fol
the duration of the war, and to
discontinue number of other serv-
ices which were held unessential to
the war effort.
In connection with this move to
facilitate the handling of important
messages, the board also directed
the companies to cut by one-third
the time required to handle business
messages delivered by messenger
and to clear messages on the wire
within seven minutes after they
reach the operating room.
Acting on an investigation made
at the request of the Federal Com
munications Commission, the BWC
said it had determined that imme-
diate steps were necessary to gear
the telegraph industry more closely
to the war effort.
Servicemen Excepted.
Specifically banned beginning De-
cember Is are fluctuations and con-
gratulatory messages such as greet
ings sent fol- Christmas, New Year,
Fathers and Mothers Days, Valen-
tines Day, and on the occasion of
births, graduations, weddings, an
niversaries and birthdays. An ex-
ception was made for such messages
to servicemen abroad.
Also listed for discontinuance De-
cember Is were such services as mes
senger, errand, distribution, remit
tance, installment payments, shop
ping, acceptance of express pack
ages and sale Of travellers checks and
mail money orders.
The wire services were given until
November Is to file objections to the
order.
Handling Revisions Asked.
A Western Union official said his
company already had dropped er-
rand and distribution service and
acceptance of Railway Express pack
ages. A Postal Telegraph Official
said his company still was handling
errand service on a restricted basis.
Both companies have dropped the
so-called fixed text kilograms which
were offered at special rates on all
holidays and for any special occasion
such as birthdays and graduations.
These messages were designated by
numbers and only the address, sig
nature and number had to be ac-
tually sent over the wire.
