Dad Draft

WASHINGTON, Aug. II INS)
The probability that Congress
will block the scheduled draft OF
fathers increased today as irate
members moved 10 speed action
when the legislators reconvene
Sept. IA.
An announcement by Rep. May
Cd Of Kentucky, chairman of the
House military affairs committee,
that he would introduce a bill
outlawing the induction Of fathers
brought a promise OF quick action
by Rep SABBATH CD Of Illinois,
chairman OF the House rules COM
mittee, which must pass on all
major legislation before it reaches
the floor.
SABBATH disclosed that he had
written a letter 10 VINO Chair
man McNutt, protesting vigorous
ly against the latter's recent an
nouncement that beginning Oct.
fathers would be reclasSified 10
make them eligible for induction
when needed"
Sabath's promise Is important
inasmuch as Congress will have
only 16 days in which to act UNI
less McNutt postpones the effec-
tive date of his order. Prompt
rules committee action would be
essential TO any congressional
move to beat the deadline.

CHICAGO. Aug. IL (INS)-The
AFL executive council unani-
mously adopted a resolution yes
terday opposing repeal of the
Chinese exclusion act which. in ef-
feet, allows only 80 Chinese to
enter the United States every
year.

had been exerted on the AFL by
groups favoring a change in the
immigration law.
He said the council had weighed
carefully the fact OF China's al
lance with the United Nations.
However, the decision, he as
serted, was motivated by the con-
viction that Chinese ARE not alb
sorbed and sssimilated easily.

The disorders which may be

Gus tayerns, grflls, etc, tuat had
10 close down.
Thousands Of people, white and
cclored, who visit Harlem spots
are afraid to come AGAIN for a
long, long time, or until the sears
of the rioting heal.
Irwin {, Miller, producer Of
the famous Brown Skinned Mod
els is back on the stroll get
ting ready for Broadway
opening with his revue that is
more familiar throughout the
South.
Miller has been eonsisten in
his program to glorify the brown
skinned eolored girl.
While there aye many white
producers who have used colored
girls in chorases and regues, none
have attempted to glorify the col
o. of their skins as policy.
1t was Miller who gave dignity
to the chorus line, 1t was Miller,
who in his shows, has tried to
bring pride of race into saow bust
ness. He has stood for GER
tain principle and the fruits of
hrs efforts are just now coming
around.
Lena Horne's unprecedented sue
cess in Hollywood - marking the
first time that white show bust
ness excepting the play given to
Nina Mae Mckinney has had a
tremendous and electrifying eff
feet on the whole of the theatri-
cal world.
Few Of the whites even cream
ed that the public, white and col
ored, would accept a pretty col
oled girl with charm and dig
rity as is the case of Lena Horne,
The results are beyond the
widest expectations and the field
is wild, open.
Miller's part in keeping alive a
tradition that dates from the
days of Williams and Walker
cannot be minfmized. The picture
Of slim, trim colored girls who
compare favorably and in many in
stances, superior to the white
stars, is one that must be noted
and given consideration.
