Largest Compliment
Of Negro Officers
In France Found
WITH THE UNITED STATES

WITH THE UNITED STATES
ARMY IN FRANCE, Nov. 8
(ANP).-I was amazed when l
visited mobile aviation ON bat
talon somewhere in France and
discovered that there were % Ne
gro officers including six captains
in the company. 1t is the largest
compliment of Negro officers l
have seen on the western front.
Col. Ellis Anderson, Houlton,
Me-, is the commanding officer. He
started with the company when it
was activated in March of 1910
at Fort Bragg. Possessed of a
knowledge of human nature. Col.
Anderson boasts about the good
conduct of his men even from the
days of Fort Bragg.
Capt. B. Taylor of Hartford,
Conn.,, is the executive officer and
second in command. A colored Off
Ger, Capt. Taylor deals with mat
ters of the highest Importance and
his administration involves every
exercise of authority that affects
the whole battalion. Other high
ranking colored officers are Capt.
Robert E. Randolph from Albany,
n. Y, battalion adjutant; Capt.
Randolph S. Wright, battalion staff

officer and Capt. Kenneth E.
Small, Boston, battalion motor
officer.
AS a part of the Ninth Air
Force Service command, the bat
talon has Travelled two and half
million miles on the Rod Ball high
way. Their convoy is a'matter of
great consequence and air force
chiefs plan their operations accord
ing to what the trucks are hauling.
The Importance of their tasks may
be summed up in the words of the
commander Of a medium bomber
group, eve might as well have no
planes if the trucks do not oper-
ate
Assigned the job of hauling
deadly explosives fro mthe beaches
to the front line, the men work
under terrific pressure. The Off
GERS and men of the battalion eX-
ercise the utmost care and atten-
ton with their vehicles and as a
result they have had the lowest
deadline of any similar organiza-
ton in the Ninth Air Force serv-
ice.
One platoon of a convoy that was
sent to Germany to deliver some
very urgent ordnance supplies
were the targets of Nazi snipers
when they were returning from
their mission. They report that the
snipers were cunningly concealed.
Fortunately, there were no casual
ties. However, the men were very
frightened. Not because they were
afraid of the Germans, but because
it was dark and they were unable
to trace where the shots came
from. They have been extremely
anxious to return to Germany
again just simply to get an oppor-
tunity to bag some snipers.

l ME BOY WRITES FROM ENGLAND

.'hefe is nothing that brings the r closer to us than to hear dl- I .tly from one We have known a boy who has grown to man. i d snd doing his bit to win the r. Corporal Stuart Morrison, .ndson of Judge Morrison, writes most interesting letter, parts of
 ich follow:
 "I did bit of travelling last ' 4ek. | was alone but on duty. ".ring my journey l visited Lon- n twice. At long last, what a cill. There they were before my aS. Big Ben, Westminster t.bbey,

You can imagine me ..aning across London, from St. l ncras station to Waterloo sla- l-on with my two barracns bags over my shoulder, my gas mask L--der one arm ana my travel or L ts and papers under the other. Londoners have seen strange sl hts Seeing England is just lAAe reading a history book and having it come to life. Wish you We're all here seeing il, but not under the same circumstances.

 By the way, did you read about the big raid on London on Feb ruary 4th? We'll, l was in that and l hope it was the last time. There I was, peacefully sleeping and about 500 a. m. Friday morn ing the sirens started blowing. It lasted an hour and five minutes. That makes about the twentieth raid I've been in so far.

 When things start popping I'll send you a, cablegran about twice 8 month.
 Your dissertation on Lord Ba- cons sentence was nothing for me to smile about. It Is very true. l wonder just how many people could understand that simple sen tence?

I'VE call upon the members of con.
gress to act quickly ON this important
legislation because time is running out
If the war against Germany should end
suddenly, before we have made legisla-
tive and economic provision for that
contingency, the home front would be
plunged into chaos.
Right no wwe are wholly unprepared
for peace. We have no plans for coping
with unemployment, with shutdown of
war factories or with the problems of
.reeonversion. If peace catches us thus
unprepared, an economic panic leopard
izing any possibility Of postwar security
and reconstruction NAV ensue."
Although there is little possibility of
anything but the most perfunctory ses-
sions Of congress prior to Labor Day,
COP strategists have already started
planning for their own reconversion
program. Senator Arthur Vandenberg
(R Mich.) has announced he has sum-
moned Republican senators to meet i'm
mediately on reconvening. He added he
felt the senate should complete recon-
version legislation now, without wait
ing for the lower house to act.
Much nthe way of how the Demo-
cratic forces react may depend upon
the influence the AFL and CIO can
bring upon the leaders in both houses
That makes the AFL call doubly impor-
tant now.

at Breton Woods A few top nations

Riddle wants the u S. to make loans
all by itself through the Export Import
Bank an idea echoed by he July % Bulle-
tin Of Chase Natl. Bank, Thus we
could put pressure on former colonies
and other backward nations to abandon
social reforms, spending policies we
didn't like, and to grant U. S. business

Chase fronted for Rockefeller oil inter-
ests in Latin America, it and other
banks should know how to do the job.
From a straight business point of
view in spite Of the diehard opposition,
the banks have lots to gain from Bret
ton Woods. Although stabilized ex-
change rates mean that banks won't
make speculative profits on ups and
downs in the rates, neither will they
lose their shirts if they guess the wrong
way. Foreign payments will continue to
be made through the banks and the
larger volume, as world trade increases
will assure stable banking profits.
Labor will find Breton Woods easing
reconversion through the long-tern
lending plan. For six out of 10 workers

.IMPERIALISTS FIGHT
WOODS WORLD BANK

The imperlalist American Century
group opposing the results Of the Breton
Woods United Nations monetary con-
ference. with its message of balanced
expansion of world trade and peaceful
advance to higher world standards of
living, has swung into action.
While the main event will take place
when Breton Woods plans hit congress
for ratification, the preliminary bouts
began even before the spokesmen of "A
nations gathered in the New Hampshire
hills to do the technical job of laying
out United Nations Economic relations.
Spokesman for the small but powerful
group of pessimists that oppose world
peace and plenty and flavor American
domination of backward countries are
Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio and J. H.
Riddle, economic adviser to the Bankers
Trust Co. of New York.
Taft falsely charges that the U. S. will
have to shell out the major part of the
funds to be used to stabilize world cur
rencies. Actually our share is only 28qo.
Taft claims countries with weak cur
rencies will dominate the fund, with
the u S. under-represented. But our
voting strength is $3.50 and as we lend to
the fund our voting power goes up, pro-
viding ample protection for American
national interests Taft also charges
that bad money will drive out good'' as
weaker nations borrow. But the agreed
plan limits borrowing to $50 of the
quota year, and borrowers come under
the funds scrutiny to protect solvency
all around.
Another gloom-singer who also relies
on popular ignorance of technical and
financial matters to attack Breton
Woods is Riddle, who speaks for a ring
of New York banks that want America
to dictate financial terms to the rest of
the world. They remember the good
old day." good for the select few-in
the l92Os when loans to South America
were made with strings attached Oil
concessions, mine leases and other vital
chips in the financial poker game were
taken in as the price Cbesides interest
and principaD Of international lending.
Riddle, who has been getting a wide
play in conservative Republican papers,
fundamentally distrusts the whole idea
of the United Nations and doesn't be-
lieve the coalition will work economic
ally or politically.
He thinks the U. S. should strike sep
arate bargains with the other countries
to stabilize exchange rates little by
little the world round. We should start
by returning to the gold standard and
balancing the budget at home. Thus
International relations are the lever for
an attack on New Deal public works to
relieve unemployment. But Riddle never
explains how we're supposed to get back
on the gold standard, the rest of the
world docilely following our lead, while
we have three quarters of the worlds
gold buried at Fort Knox For it takes
two to make a bargain.

Congress Gathers With
Reconversion as Vital Topic
and a Growing Need

WASHINGTON - (FP) An election
conscious war congress moved back into
the capital August l, with continued
battle front victories sharpening the To-
Gus on the touchy problem Of reconver-
sion, while organized labor rallied sup
port to speed action through the legis-
lative mill.
AS a national issue involving the eco
nomic well-being of millions of war
workers, the reconversion problem can
not be dodged successfully by either the
Democrats or Republicans. On top Of
that, the approach of the November
] elections underscores the issue for both
parties.
For the Democratic forces, a program
to handle reconversion with speed and
intelligence to bar mass dislocations Of
unemployment by cutbacks is a political
must. Unless the administration can
guide such a program through congress,
the Republicans may be depended upon
to go to the country with great hue
and cry about how the party in power
failed the nation in its greatest home
front crisis.
Congress has been on the defensive as
to reconversion ever since the sensa-
tional developments that came with the
cancellation of the Brewster Aeronauti-
cal Corps contract for navy planes.
Protests that reached congressman
came from both management and labor
seeking to prevent another such indus
trial tragedy to spill iobless workers and
idle plants onto a community.
The 'AFL announced July % it was
launching a vigorous campaign to speed
up reconversion and provide legislative
protection for workers who will be dis
employed by the millions should the war
with Germany end suddenly.
Realization of this danger has also
been emphasized by the CIO, with one
United Automobile Worker leader assert
ing that about 30 per cent or some 2OO,-
900 workers in Detroit would be jobless
by the end of August.
Other figures along the same line in
dicated that about 100000 workers will
be idle by the end of october.
A renewed Endorsement of the Kilgore
bill that was cast adrfit just before the
current recess of congress came from
AFL President William Green, who said
the Federation indorses the measure be-
cause it seeks to protect human rights
as well as property rights during the
postwar emergency.
