one can meet anywhere, are dom
mores. l came up against this my
self the other day-if l may be for
given a personal note-when l
asked William Fl. HASTE to lunch.
1 had never met the Judge before
and wanted to talk with him Of
his experiences in the War Depart
ment, where he had served for two
years as civilian aide to Secretary
Stimson. Judge HASTE is a Negro,
and on inquiry l found that the
only place l could take a Negro
to lunch was the Union Station. l
strongly disliked the idea of being
forced to take a man of his distinc-
ton TO a counter in a railroad sta
ton, and asked his permission to
invite him TO be my guest at the
National Press Club. Judge HASTE
is not one Of those members Of q
minority who, having achieved
some position in the world, prefer
to shut their eyes to the wrongs
Of their fellows rather than en-
danger that standing. He has
picketed drugstores here which re-
fused to hire Negroes, and he was
as willing as to run the risk Of
some possible embarrassment.
Il seems that this was the first
time in the history of the club that
anyone had ever taken a Negro
there to lunch. Elmer Davis was
addressing a special luncheon in
the auditorium that day; so we got
a table before anyone seemed to
realize what had happened A mo-
ment after we were seated, a page
told me I was wanted on the tele-
phone. In the hall found that this
was a ruse. The manager asked me
if that was q colored man with me.
I said it was. he declared that we
would not be served I said that as
a member Of the club I insisted on
service for my guest and went back
to the table. There We sat un-
served until two o'clock, when we
left FOR a Chinese restaurant
The Judge, besides being the
least stufy Of individuals and a
thoroughly swell guy, is at least as
cultivated as some Of the third-rate
advertising men and fourth-rate
politicians who belong to the club.
he Is a Harvard Law School gradu-
ate, dean Of Howard University
Law School, a former member of
the federal judiciary in the Virgin
Islands, and has just won the
Spingarn medal for 1912. Under

meetings must be called on petition

U. 5. Cargo Vessels
Being Transferred
To British Registry
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The British, with surplus of ex-
perienced seamen. and the United
States, with a shortage OF them,
have decided to meet the problem
by transferring American freighters
to British registry.
built Liberty ships thus
transferred will be operated by Brit
ish crews, under the Union Jack,
but ownership will remain with
the War Shipping Administration.
Transfers are being made on a
charter basis through the Lease
lend Administration.
Lease-lend estimated today that
about 200 Liberty ships aggregat-
ing 100000 deadweight tons had
been transferred, and shifts are con-
tinuing on a regular but unspecifled
rate.
The shortage of seamen in this
country was described as not gen.
eral but rather acute in some
classifications. The British, as the
long time No. l sefaring nation, had
many more trained seamen than
the United States at the start of
the war, and the rapid growth of
the American merchant marine
through new construction has sky
rocketed the demand for skilled
crews.
Under law, American flag ships
must have American citizens for
officers, and Is per cent of the
crews must be American. This re-
quirement, officials said, made it
desirable to transfer the ships to
British registry, rather than to re-
tain American registry and be
operated with British crews. In
wartime, however, the Secretary of
the Navy may waive the require
ments concerning American citizen
ship, and some American ships are
understood to have sailed with more
than Is per cent foreign crews.
Another factor in the transfer
was understood to be complaints
from Britain that American flag
ships now are carrying perpon-
derance of the Allied war trade.
Because of this country's vast con-
struction program its merchant
marine now is believed to exceed
Britain's, and by the end OF the
year may be as much as one-fourth
larger.

Virginia venereaI Clinic
Assured Of u. ). Funds

By the Associated Press.
RICHMOND, Va. July 22.-An
agreement between the Federal Gov
eminent and the State is being
drawn for erection of the 100000
detention hospital for venereally
diseased women at the Goochland
State Industrial Farm for Women,
Gov. Darden announced yesterday.
The Governor said he now has
assurances that the Federal au-
thorities will sign an agreement pro-
viding for the supplying of half the
funds for the project by the Gov
eminent to match the States con-
tribution.
Although the cost of providing for
its share in the building is greater
than the State had originally con-
templated putting into such an es-
Enlistment, the Governor said he
had been assured the State could
make ample use of the facilities
after the war. 1t would be erected
far enough from the women's peni-
tertiary buildings to make it suita-
BILE for use as juvenile delinquent
detention home should the number
of venereally diseased women be re-
duced to a minimum.

Mental Patients Aided

Fresh participation in the cause

NEW FEPC HEAD

Much favorable comment has been heard regard
ing the appointment last week of the Rt. Rev. Francis
j. Haas of Catholic University of America as the
new chairman Of the Presidents Fair Employment
Practice Committee. While many Negroes still have
their fingers crossed, the announcement of the new
head last week came as great relief to the brown
brain trusters who were afraid that the southern
bloc would put of their boys in the highly con-
troversial seat.
Rt Rev. Francis Haas has record of govern
ment service as labor conciliator and from all
reports he may be expected to do an honest job.
One event which took place last week served to
heighten our esteem for the new appointee. 1t seems
that as soon as the appointment was announced by
the President, few reactonaries in the American
Federation of Labor sent protest kilograms charging
that the Rt. Rev. Francis Haas was too friendly with
the Congress of Industrial Organizations Indeed,
if the new appointee is familiar with industrial
unionism and is sympathetic to the cause he should
be prepared to do a very commendable job on this
committee. We hope that we will have no reason to
be disappointed.

ing strong movement among the masses Of the
American people who are seriously concerned about
the great issues of freedom and democracy in this
crucial period when both are on trial There is but
one way to express conviction on this point, how
ever, and that is to join up now - without waiting
for solicitation. We must recognize that while we
are concentrating on the arduous job Of building
the great weapons of war with which we will defend
cherished ideals and defeat enemies, we must
also fortify our idealism which arms alone cannot
sustain or perpetuate.
BY taking out membership and actively partci-
patng in the NAACP, we are helping to influence
n some measure the course of this war and the kind
of peace shall obtain in the future. Detroiters
will accept the challenges of the day and live up
to the responsibilities of it's leadership. Let us
do it quickly, for time is on the side of those who
would destroy us.

TOP THE GOAL

Many times we have boosted that Detroit is set
ting the pace for the nation in various national ef-
forts This year the local branch of the National
Association for the Advancement of Coored Peo-
pe has been given a quota calling for 10000 men,
bers No other city has dared to sets its sights so
high and no community in the nation has as many
reasons for inspiring it to achieve such goal. We
have assumed national leadership, and we are going
to live up to the responsibilities of that leadership.
In a few days distinguished Negroes from all
sections of the country will come here to attend the
Emergency War Farley of the Association. Only
600 branches are expected to send accredited dele
gates who are coming to consider the course of our
group in this perous period Of our history. AS the
arsenal of democracy, Detroit has become war
capital where the tide of battle is determined and
decisions of historic Importance are made by thou
sands of workers in hundreds Of plants. The Negro
war worker is playing significant and invaluable
role in these world events This indeed is an appro-
pirate setting for the parey of the Association
