Speaking of her trip to America
Nine. Chang said she was i'm
pressed by the devotion to duty ex-
hibited by American soldiers in dis
tant stations, many of whom have
to endure the monotony OF waiting
She asserted that America had
revealed to her that it lis not only
the cauldron of democracy. but the
incubator of democratic principles.
Referring to the fact that men OF
many national origins are serving
in, the United States Army, she said
mo suspicion or rivalry existed
between them. This increased my
belief and faith that devotion to
common principles eliminates diff
ferences in race, and that identity
of ideals is the strongest possible
solvent OF racial dissimilarities.'

members, to address Congress. The
first was Queen Wilhelmina Of the
Netherlands, who spoke at joint

five eirlelds and big harboy were
intended by Japan for use in deal
ing blows has been on the defensive
during the current offensive.
In the previous raid, dating back
to the big 350-ton strike of October
u, eleven WarShipS have been sunk
there and six damaged; more than
dozen big cargo vessels have been
sent to the bottom of Simpson Har-
Dor, and more than 700 planes have
been destroyed or damaged.
Five Conveys Sighted.
The japanese are sending to the
South Pacific possibly AZ warships
and II other vessels-the largest
force they have assembled there
since they were defeated in the great
sea battle off Guadalcanal in the
Southern Solomons last November
1915.
Five conveys are being rushed
from the powerful fortress of Truk
to Rabaul in desperate effort tC
halt the advance Of the Allies in the
Northern Solomon island of Bou-
gainville, where American forces
landed last Monday.
Not single battleship or aircraft
carrier was sighted by the Allied
patrol planes which photographed
the Japanese craft. 1t has been a
year since the enemy has risked
sending battleships to the SolomonS.
The last time they did it they lost
al least one battleship and probably
a second one, in addition to five
cruisers and five destroyers in the
engagement off Guadalcanal last
November. Since then their heavy
ships have remained hidden from
Allied naval and air power.

Langston is the most luxurious and
costly public housing development
in the District for Negroes, Mr..
Ihlder pointed out. Now managed
by the NCHA, it was built by the
Federal Emergency Administration
of the Public Works Agency prior to
1898, when the principal object was
to provide employment rather than
housing. This accounts for the higt
cost of $2,l00 a room, Mr.. IhldeI
said.

with Mr.. Ihlder that the ''perman.

housing constructed here after the
war should be built to last, he said
