The writer of this column, this
of the Sou 1922 Mules who went
through the season an undefeated
and once tied team. This feat places
them among the nations undefeated
teams.
During the season, they played six
games and all were won with the
exception of one, which entities the
Mules to the Post championship.
Coached by Pfc Nathaniel What
ta-Man" Johnson, they were a ver-
satile team. At the beginning of the
season, the team had only eleven
veterans from last years squad.
They were S/Sgt. John Watson, Sgt
Albert Thompson, Sgt. Henry Moore,
Cpl. Jacques Patterson, Pfc. Walter
Powell, Pvt. Edward Hinton, Cpl.
Clarence Cabell, Pvt Feldmon Mot
ley, Pvt. Lloyd Porter, and Pvt. Car
roll Blackman. Newcomers to the
team were Pilo Apodaca, Pvt. How
ard Roberts, Sgt. Gable Gray, Pvt.
Pompey DobSon, Cpl. James Grif-
fin, Pfc. Emmett Wallace, Sgt. Wor-
rell Maxwell, Cpl Oslea Cook. With
this material, Johnson produced a
team that went through the season
undefeated.
For the season, the Mules allowed
only 81 points to pe made against
them. and ran up total of 145
points. Yards gained rushing were
2491 while the opponents piled up
903. They tried 81 passes, completed
81, allowed 13 to be intercepted.
They made total of 249 first downs
against 81 for opponents
The leading ground gamer for the
season was Cpl. James Griffin who
had a total of $40 yards gained from
the line of Scrinmage.

WASHINGTON, June 8. CUP -
Germany has been deprived CT her
last major source Of Wolfram -
source of steel-hardening Tungsten
by Portgual's decision to stop all
exports to Germany and to shut
down her Wolfram mines immedi-
ately.
1t was a major diplomatic victory
for the Allies, consummated on the
eve of the great invasion of France.
1t marked the third victory in eco
nomic warfare for the Allies in a
little more than a month.
Late in April Turkey shut off all
chrome shipments to Germany.
Early in May, Spain agreed to cut
her Wolfram exports to Germany
from about 1000 tens a year to 280
tons this year. The major unsolved
economic warfare problem now in
wolves Swedish shipments of ball
bearings to Germany. The Allies
still are conducting negotiations in
Stockholm in an attempt to stop
them.

Officials Reveal
Identity Of
Denoted Genera!

WASHINGTON, June g. UP)-
The war department has disclosed
that the general who was denoted
for violating security regulations in
connection with the invasion was
Maj. Gen. Henry j. F. Miller.
He had been commander of the
Ninth air force service command
in Britain since October, 1943.
Dispatches from London had re-
vealed previously that a general
had been denoted and sent back
to this country because he told a
group of guests at a cocktail party
two months ago that the invasion
will take place before June 49,"
Miller'S rank as a major general
was temporary, as are virtually all
wartime ranks. He has been de-
NOTED to his regular permanent
rank as lieutenant colonel. The war
department. did not disclose his
present assignment in this country
He was head of the air service
command in Washington in March,
1912, and then was assigned to the
European theater.
Miller was born in Salem county,
N. j., Sept. 10, 1890, and was grad
uated from West Point in 1915.
A cavalry officer at the outset of
the last war, he took up aviation
in 1918, and Went to Britain in
october of that year.
In subsequent years he held var
ious air force assignments through
out the country and in Hawaii.
Some of his more recent assign
ments were at Brooks Field, Tex;
San Antonio; and Patterson Field,
O. He was graduate of the air
corps tactical school and attended
the command and general staff
school.

Capitol Talk
--by-
Peter Edison

private war housing built in the
last two years has carried Federal
Housing Administration insurance,
without which private enterprise
could not have risked the job.
Now take a look at the public
war housing, which has cost about
81 5000 0,O0O for the 100000 units,
or an average of less than $4,000 per
unit, though that is an over-sim-
plification. Publicly built, perma-
nent housing units averaged over
$4,000. including sites and utilities.
Demountable units have averaged
$4,000 Temporary dwellings, for
families have averaged S277o, tenn
porary dormitories $3.50 per room.
Private builders and realtors want
all this government, temporary
housing torn down after the war is
over to remove it as source of
competition. Federal housing Off
cials concur for the simple reason
that if this temporary housing is
not destroyed it will rapidly dete-
riorate into Sub-standard, slum
housing OF Jlle WUISI hlIlU.
GOVERNMENTS LOSS
PERHAPS $4,000, 0,00G 900
How much loss the federal gov
ernment will sustain on this tenn
porary housing, charging it up to
the cost of the war like eXpendable
ammunition can't yet be determin-
ed. Perhaps $2,000,000,000
War housing has not, however,
been operated on a charity basis
and is more than breaking even on
its operating costs. For the last
six months accounting period on
257 900 family dwelling units then
in operation the average rent COL
lected was over S28 per month
against operating costs of SIT per
month.
With half a million publicity fin
ance6 temporary war housing units
torn down after the war is over
the question will arise as to where
the people living in them now will
60 then. Can privately financed
housing care for all these people
perhaps 100000 in number? If
not, what is to be the role of public
housing in caring for people that
free enterprise and private realtors
and builders can't accommodate?

PUBLIC HOUSING
COSTS MORE,

Scattered in some 1000 projects in
1000 communities of the United
States are approximately $4,000
dwelling units" which have been
built new or converted by remodel
ing since the summer of 1910 and
are now classified broadly as war
housing On top Of that there are
100000 more units under conStruc-
ton and thousands more scheduled
which will bring the unit total to
about 100000.
Roughly a million units have
been or will be privately financed
100000 publicly financed.
The question is, what's to become
o, the publicly financed war hous-
ing? Involved also is the future of
all public housing.
Fact number one is that private
enterprise could not possibly have
done the job itself. 1t couldn't have
met the needs of loW-income fam
lilies with temporary housing that
would have shown a profit or al
lowed an even break to the builders,
while if permanent homes haG been
built in place of the temporary,
publicly financed structures, there
would have been a chaotic postwar
collapse in the real estate market.
In planning war housing, the rule
was fer housing officials of any
community to determine first the
amount Of outside labor that would
be brought in for war production
industries, then determine how
mucn of the additionally needed
housing could be supplied by prl-
vate enterprise and absorbed by
the community after the war Any
thing private enterprise couldn't
supply with profit and safety, the
fe deral government took on.
PRIVATE HOUSING $4,000 900, 900
IN TWO YEARS
Such war housing and remocel-
irg as was done by private enter
rrise was permanent housing on
choiccr ocations-stuff that would
pay out even after the war. Private
capital invested in this way is es-
timated at $4.000O0O,000, an aver
age of $4,000 for each of the million
units. More than 80 per cent of this
