New Antiaircraft Gun
Is Messing Up Germans

ROME, ITALY. - An American
80 millimeter antiaircraft gun, which
hurls explosive shells at terrific
velocity, is being used against
enemy troops in Italy with devastat-
ing effect, and has proved an ideal
dual purpose weapon, the Allied
command said recently.
This highly mobile weapon, which
q be fired at distant targets in
much the same fashion as a sniper's
rifle, is an adequate American an
swer to the Nazis' famed 80 MILL
meter gun. German prisoners told
graphically of the terrible effect Of
its shells on the enemy troops.
An official source reported the go
millimeter gun, which is called the
"Baby Long Tom," because it is a
fit companion for the 1855 millimeter
rifle known as the "Long Tom," has
been used as a ground weapon since

'B-29' Crew Up in
Second Air Force
Training Program Developed
In Western States.

COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO
Now that the worlds mightiest aeri-
al weapon, the Superfortress, known
as the Bog, has been launched
against the Japanese homeland, Off
Gals say that it may be told that the
long months of preparation for its
development were completed within
the Second air force, center of plan
ming for the bulk of this country's
four-motor bomber operational train
ing.
Command jurisdiction of the very
heavy bomber program was placed
within the Second air force with
headquarters in Colorado Springs,
Colo, in November, 1913, because it
had pioneered this country's heavy
bombardment training program.
The Second air force, which had
its beginning as the Northwest Air
district with headquarters at Spo-
kane, WASH, in January, 1941, is now
the largest air force in the country
with bases in % states.
Four of these bases in the Kansas
area were selected as sites for very
heavy bomber training. There the
program was developed from
scratch" officers report. The train
ing bases were restricted to per-
sonnet engaged in the new program.
No transient aircraft was allowed
on the fields. All the experience
available from the heavy program
which now bears the scrutiny of all
had to be trained for the first time (
on a new type of bombardment air.
plane.
Maj. Gen. St. Clair Street COM
manded the Second air force when
the program was started. He was
succeeded by Maj. Gen. Uzal G.. Emf,
the present commander whose eXpe-
rience with heavy bombardment
overseas was climaxed by the low I,
level attacks on the Ploesti oil fields
last summer.
The same high experience level
was demanded for the crews who
now man these air dreadnaughts.
Airplane commanders (pilots) and
their crewmen represent the cream
of this country's crop of airmen ex-
..erienced in heavy bombardment.

"LITTLE MEN In BIG PLACES

Rising in the South Carolina legislature the other day
to defend his state from misconceptions held IN other parts
Of the union, State Sen. Il. M. Jeffres laid the blame on
Sen. Smith, long and Familiarity known as Cotton "a.
Anyone quoth Mr.. J~effries, continually making the
addresses he makes on the floor Of the senate IS enough
to picture South Carolina and the people Of the south as
an unciviized race that is d~epriving human beings OF human
rights
1--WE do not have to go further than the antics OF Cot
ton Ed and K. d. Mcclellan to see how the south is held
up in the worse light. We could go further. Certainly the
peoples of Texas are of a character that deserves better
reflection than is given by the slaverings of a Pappy o.
Daniels, and the people of Mississippi are basely portrayed
by the very vocal hates and intoerances of Sen. Bllbo.
"The basic trouble is, of course, that the people of
the south do not choose their own senatorial spokesman
and therefore are innocent of the 'unciviized' and often
uncouth views expressed in their name in the U. S. senate
BY and large, the people of the south unquestionably are
of an enlightened and generous opinion and of a progressive
will; and despite electoral handicaps their opinion and will
are finding increasing expression in the house of repre-
sentatives. Nor can it be dougted but that the south present
ly will find the means of d~slodging from the magaphone
those who wear its commissions to disgrace its merits.
"And in the meantime, whatever the phony picture Of
the south sold on the floor of the senate by those senators
who represent at best the tight little political o~ligarchies that
elect them and at worst their own selfish interests, the
south must sustain its self respect in the knowledge that
the heart of it's people is good, the thinking of its people is
sound, the eyes of its people forward - and that in the
spirit of its great traditions the south is now rising through
an assortment of superimposed shams toward that place
in the nations councils to which its undiminished energies,
genius and culture truly entitle it."

America finally got run out on
a rail. Today white supremacy is
more unpopular than ever in that
great section of the eolored world,
according to what some Latin
American delegates said il Phila-
delphia.
A white patriot priest, Father
Nunez, from one ( the few white
countries of Latin America, SPOKE
in the spirit of Mexico's great
Negro priest and liberator, Faith
er Morales, when he said:
g.. Specifically, We ask for
the workers of Latin America the
benefits of an international policy
which does not recognize any
discrimination of race, national
ity, sex or religion. We support
The principles of free trade UNI

DR.. Nannetti, delegate from
Colombia where Negroes com
prise at least one-fifth of the
population, followed Father Nunez
and declared that:
In a world Of ruin and tears,
in the midst of s%keptieism and
hatred, we have to reconstruct a
world illuminated by faith, JUS
tiee, and peace.
There will be no lasting
peace unless it is basel on social

without distinction of race, creed
or sex, have the right to pursue
their intellectual development and

of freedom and dignity, in eco

he loved me. Now he doesn't
want me TO 60 any place. He
wants me to stay at home all of

Modern women do not have to
tolerate brutality. It's hard to be.
lieve that a man who loves his
wife would stoop to such an act.
However, if your husband is the
domineering type who believes a
woman's place is In the home and
should have no authority or privi-
legcs, adapt yourself 10 his way
Of thinking if you love him enough
to endure such treatment. If you
feel that you won't always be
able to bow to his will and live

decision right now before your
spirit is broken and you are too
cmbittered to create a new life
