Urges Help
 For Negroes

Providence, R. l., Aug. 11-(UP)- Unusual opportunities enjoyed by Negro workers as result of the war effort will be lost when peace comes unless a definite program is inaug- urated to preserve them, an investi- gating body reported to Gov. J. Howard McGrath today.
 The report came from the Com mission on Employment problems of the Negro, which was appointed by then Gov. William H. Vanderbilt three years ago to study the econ- omic situation of Rhode Islands II 000 Negroes.
 The commission fund found that the Negroes are being refused equal opportunities with the gen. eral population"
 It recommended:
 That the governor encourage and give moral support to all or Sanizations helping the Negro.
 2-That Negroes be given a pro- portionate share of scholarships de- rived from state funds.
 3.-That the State Civil Service remove any handicaps of discrimin- ation.
 4.-That the 30 cities and towns. through Civil Service or by appoint ment, give equal opportunity to Negroes.

New Rotion Stamp Book

Washington, Aug. 11-(UP-A new ration stamp book, yet to be issued,w ould contain the stamps to be exchanged for plastic or glass ration tokens, the Office of Price . Administration indicated today.
 Louis Kroeger, OPA rationing off, cial announced yesterday in Chicago that use of tokens in making ra- tioned food purchases would begin about Jan. 1. Tokens would be in two denominations for each food classification, five-point takens being approximately the size of quarter and one point tokens about the size of a nickel
 OPA spokesmen said that such a plan had been under consideration for some time as a means of easing the burden of grocers swamped with thousands of ration stamps which they must count and bank.
 Under a token system, the shopper would present a ration stamp of large denomination, possibly worth an entire months allotment of ra- toned food, in making the initial purchase in ration period. Tokens would then be given in change and would constitute negotiable ration currency for the remainder of the period.

Predicts Nozi Crack-Up

Cambridge, Mass, Aug. II. (UP)- Prof. Gaetano Salvemini of Harvard University, who accurately predicted after Mussolini's removal that Italy would stay in the war, said today he believed that the Greman col lapsO would be much more rapid than the Italian.
 Dr. Salvemini, a history lecturer at Harvard since his election from Italy because of his anti-fascist leanings, said thaa sudden break up'' was as certain in Germany as it was in Italy.
 "The people of the Fascist coun- tries have been held in wise and the minute its hold is relaxed the whole structure collapses," he said in an interview.
 We do not know what Is actually happening in Germany at the pres ent time. Indeed, much of the news that we get-especially through Madrid-is undoubtedly straight from Goebbels."
 Dr. Salvemini warned that Brit ish and American governments must take cognizance of the Ire awakening of the Italian people, and give them chance at self government. He said Mussolini never was popular with the Italian people and believed that Il Duce was supported by less than 10 per cent of the population during his rule.

Virgil Hayes is a veteran OF

At present he belongs to Harrison
A. Wright Post 2S9, Springfield,
Mass, but he is about to make a
change.
Since coming to this city he has
paid a number of visits to Roose-
welt Post and likes it so well he
has decided to join it. He claims
it is one of the best posts in the
country. And he DIDN'T say
COLORED posts. Just posts. AS
he has visited many white and col
ored posts in his travel and seem
ingly has been very observant-
one is reluctant to doubt his
statement. So we have this to say
to him:
Virgil Hayes, there isn't a loyal
member of Theodore Roosevelt
Post No. 80 who doesn't believe a.
long with you that it is one of the
best posts in the country. and if
you continue to display the same
amount of enthusiasm you display
ed when we were chatting with
you last Saturday and pitch in and
help to keep things moving along
this post will become an even bet
ter one.
1t needs men like you. For it is
hard to conceive of a veteran who
seems so wrapped up in Legionism
as you are being other than an ac-
tive and hard working member in
