 next winter will be a different story, though, for Uncle Sam has future plans for him. Lots of luck, Freddie, in your new career of seeing the world through port hole.
 Think Freddie Burmester should get some praise for the nice pie lures he has contributed to the Sub. He's vice president of the New London Camera Club and they're on the lookout for new members.

 Finally the awful truth has leaked out about the Jones-Ben- oit fight at Lantern Hill few weeks ago. The story vas given to us first hand, so we're pretty sure it's correct. It seems to have started many centuries ago by two noblemen named UT and Ahoo. ,(The names sound primitive but boiled down they spell ones and Benoit0 UT and Ahoo were the very best of friends and here's how they got their names. In those days each individual was named from some trait he possessed. UT meant "thrower of the bull" Ahoo had a much more romantic mean ing, something like "Oh you wolf!'

The shirts did shrink and UT wanted revenge, so he had Nebu George Lewis) sell one of his recondi- tioned cars to Benoit.

CHICAGO WHITE REALTORS
SPREAD RACE-HATE TO
keep restrictive COVENANTS

Chicago, Oct. 9 (ANP)-An-
other effort was made last week to
lock Negro citizens of the southside
within the restricted area defined
in the restrictive covenants here
when Patrolman Spencer Thornton
and four other Negro families were
the object of a bitter race-hate cam
paign launched by the Oakland
Kenwood Property Owners associ-
alton.
Backed by white realtors, the as
sociation has printed circulars that
that they are organized primarily
to "enforce restrictive agreements"
agaist Negroes. Many of the white
realtors who are supporting the
association are said to own prop
erty in the overcrowded Negro
area.
The only Negro member of the
South Park division of the Chicago
police, Thornton was served with a
summons to appear in Judge
Dunn's court on Oct. 13 to state why
he should not be evicted from his
recently purchased home. The
summons read: "Walter H. Flood,
May L. Gould and R. l. Johnson
versus Spencer Thornton" Flood
charged that the association used
his name without his permission
and told Thornton that he had made
no objection to his presence in the
community.
Officials of the association in
clude Charles L. Loindecher, presi-
dent; Philip R. Toomin, vice presi-
dent; Oscar H. Loonicke, secretary !;
Clarence Poffenberger, treasurer,
and Newton C. Farr, a member of
the financial committee.

les against Negroes include three

CIVIL AVIATION
FACES CHARGES

CHICAGO, Nov. l7.-Attenpts
to conciliate British Canadian,
and American proposals for world
cooperation in supervision of post
war air transport were broadened
today to bring other countries into
the picture beside the .'Big Three"
of the International civil aviation
conference.
Opportunity to put before other
nations tentative draft of a COM
promise Of the issue Of economic
controls came while waiting for
comment from London on the doc
ument drawn yesterday. It was
understood the British delegation
felt the proposed adjustment OF
differences in the three plans
should be sent home for study and
comment.
The implication was, that the
adjusted proposal carried consid-
e:able retreat from the plan which
the United Kingdom brought to
Chicago. The provision Of that
plan least acceptable to the United
States was one which would divide
carrying capacity" between the
countries on the basis of traffic
embarked in each. Thus it would
limit the load capacity to be flown
without direct restriction on the
number Of flights to be operated.
During the wait for London's re.
ply, the proposal has been turned
over to the conference steering
committee for study and discus.
sion. Some officials feel that the
countries which have not partici
pated in the consultations of the
British, Canadian and United
States delegations can thus be
made to feel that they are close tt
the situation. Ill.,.
France was one Of the larger
countries being taken further into
the compromise picture. It wa.
believed that among the others
were Brazil, China, Sweden, the
Netherlands, Portugal and Spain.
