pressing problem whic his the bet
terment of housing for lower in
come groups, but our ultimate aim

eryone."

INDIA FIGHTS SOUTH
AFRICAN jim CROW

WASHINGTON, Nov. % (ANP)
The people of India, acting
through their Central Legislative
assembly, have slapped back at dis
criminatory practices which have
been instituted against Indians in
South Africa. According to the In
dian information services, published
here, the assembly has approved
unanimously certain m sure S
which are identical in their applica-
ton to non-Indian citizens Of the
Union of South Africa now residing
in India as those adopted by the
government of the U. S. A.
The handicaps now imposed on
South Africans in India relate to
entry into India, residence, trade,
acquisition, holding and disposal of
property, and the right of local
franchise. 1t was the denial of these
rights to Indians that provoked the
reprisal.

Gen. BENJAMIN 0. DAVIS
GETS PERMANENT
EUROPEAN Assignment

WASHINGTON, Nov. % (ANP)
Brig. Gen. Benjamin O. Davis has
been permanently assigned to the
staff Of the inspector-general in the
European Theater of Operations, it
is learned here. Gen. Davis has been
in the theater since July. At that
time he accompanied Carlton Moss,
playwright, and Maj. Homer Rob-
erts of the press branch, during the
shooting Of films for follow-up
to "The Negro Soldier"
The assignment Of Gen. Davis to
this theatre gives rise to the belief
that conditions overseas are not as
happy as might be desirable. A war
department source here pointed out
last week that there are now more
Negro soldiers overseas then are In
the continental United States.

fessor of social science, Fisk uni

the second biennial assembly Of the
United Council of Church Women,

school head stated.
The Wagner-Murray-Dingell bill
a bill which treats with socialized
medicine and now pending before
congress, should be supported, DR.
Johnson said as he spoke of the need
for federal health program.
Also stressing the need for bet
ter houses, Johnson said that il
church treasures with millions OF
dollars would consider investing
their funds in such socially usefu
channels as model housing projects
they would realize profitable re
turns.

enough Negroes in Dearborn to
wage successful fight against this
sort of discrimination it is said here
that the Detroit Citizens committee,
which won the battle of Sojourner

will enter the fighting along with
the NAACP and other militant or
ganizations to force the FPHA to
take definite stand in favor of the
Negroes.

Nab PC Aide
On Draft Charge,
lint ranae-up

WASHINGTON, Nov. % (ANP)
Reports that an FEPC field rep
resentative had been arrested by
G-Men in Kansas City, Mo-, on
charges of draftlaw violation were
confirmed here at the committees
Headquarters. A committee spokes-
man expressed confidence, however,
that the matter would be cleared up
promptly.
Admitting that interest in such
matter involving one of it's staff
members would be natural reac-
ton" Of the agency, the FEPC
spokesman said he could make no
official comment but indicated that
the worker involved was being in
sured a fair deal.
Queried as to whether the COM
mittee would press for further
probe in the event the staff men,
Der were cleared, the agency Off
cials also refused to comment.
According to the report, Theodore
E. Brown, fair practice examiner
assigned by the FEPC to st. Louis.
is the person in difficulty. Brown is
said to have been detained by the
FBI because of an alleged irregu-
larity on his draft classification
card. He is said to have been taken
to Fort Leavenworth, Kan, and held
in $1,000 bond.
Originally from New York City,
Brown is reported to be registered
with local selective board there.
He holds an honorable discharge
from the army air force in which he
enlisted in 1941, according to friends
here who expressed the opinion that
if there is any mixup concerning his
draft status it may lie between the
army and the local board as in {
number of similar cases wherein er
rors in the exchange Of individual
records have temporarily inconven
fenced many other men.

which Brown has been working, are
pointing to the leading part played
by the FEPC examiner in the public
hearings conducted by the commit
tee in St. Louis a few months ago
and are limiting at the possibility
that his present difficulty may well
have been the results of an attempt
to frame" him, launched by per-
sons violently opposed to the FEPC
program.

DEARBORN, Mich, Nov. %
(ANP)-Shades of another Sojour-
ner Truth Housing project fight
loomed on the horizon here when
Mayor Orville l.. Hubbard of this
city presented a resolution to the
city council protesting against a
federal housing project for Negroes
by the Federal Public Housing au-
thority. However, the city council,
so as not to appear as opposing
Negro project as such passed its
own resolution protesting against
war housing of any type in the town.
Dearborn is a suburb of Detroit,
and, while it is an Incorporated
township in it's own right built up
around the Ford Motor company's
Rouge plant, having its own city Of
ficials, it is still in the same county
as Detroit and is considered part of
Greater Detroit, subject to the same
prosecuting attorney, sheriff, pro-
bate and circuit courts. The mayor
of Dearborn, acting on the advice
Of citizens here, is said to have taken
his cue from Mayor Edward j. Jef-
fries of Detroit who campaigned in
the last mayoral election on ra.
cial issue and was reelected because
he openly opposed mixed housing
units and believed in certain resi-
dental restrictions.
One of the boasts of the white
citizens of this town is that no Ne
groes live in Dearborn, as if that i:

Dangerous Reading

Congress in its wisdom has decreed that

found in books. Under strict Interpretation
of Congress new law, the War Department
has banned such dangerous documents as
Charles A Beards The Republic Catherine
Drnker Bowen's biography of Justice Holmes,
the Atlantic Monthly and Harpers from the
soldiers reading lists.
This undoubtedly is the spirit of congress

The Farmers Jeep

Postwar planning for the jeep has turned
into quite lively discussion. The Department
of Commerce has come out with the flat as
sertion that the little war vehicle will be no
good for farming-that its chassis is too low
and its gear ratio too high. Others have leaped
to its defense as if the jeep were old faithful
Dobbin instead of a buggy almost untried in
agriculture.
Now comes definitive word from the ieep's
manufacturers. They've toned down earlier
predictions to the extent of admitting that the
military jeep is not the farmers perfect We
hicle but that there will be a postwar bantam
Nsh lower gear ratio which ought to fill the
bill.
And that probably ends the argument For
even If the present jeeps were perfectly fitted
for farming, most of them will have taken an
awful beating in battle. Having Ieaped bump
ed, slithered and waded over all sorts of ter
rain and under all conditions, the CT jeep will
probably be ready for pasture, and willing to
let new rural relative take over.

Our Chief Aim
Wrightsville Paper Day

Tomorrow is the day for all residents OF
Wrightsville Beach to get their waste paper
bundled and on the porch. That big truck
with the signs on the sides which has become
so familiar in Wilmington during recent weeks
will be at the resort in the late afternoon and
stay on the job as long as there is chance
of gathering bit more of the waste paper
which is in very truth the No. critical ma
terial at this stage of the war;
The Senior Fraternity, which is the agency
through which the paper salvage campaign
is operated hereabouts, and which has been
dong a fine job, will be out in force. All
that is necessary for residents to do is to
put their paper hoardings in plain sight and
be patient if the truck is a little late in ar
irving at any particular door.
The special reason for asking that contri-
buttons be placed out front is because much
time may be so saved in the collection and
more homes visited. If the men have to go
to garages or upstairs for bundles they will
consume much more time than would be nee
essary if the bundles were where they could
be picked up without much footwork.
Wrightsville Beach has been anxious to have
portunity.
