NNAAAAN W SNNS'
One is Westbrook Pegler's con-
version by Ralph Mathews of the
Washington Afro-American and
julius Adams of the Amsterdam
Star News in New York. These two
top-flight newsmen were the only
Negro correspondents on the
Dewey campaign tour. Pegler met
them, talked with them and wrote
about them in his column last week.
He said: "These are two very
nice fellows and, though I haven't
seen their copy, they talk in the
manner of real professionals, and
of course, you aren't conversing
two minutes before you are on
Topic A, meaning race relations,
and there you stay -.
"These men realize that they
have a power to take some Of the
heat off the issue and probably save
lives, and still accomplish the result
of opening up jobs for Negro work
ers-and it all seems reasonable
and feasible WHEN YOU JUST
SIT DOWN AND MEET AS MEN
AND COLLEAGUES IN A BUSI-
NESS AND BEGIN TO UNDER
STAND EACH OTHER, instead of
beating one another over the head
with meat-ax editorials as total
strangers on opposite sides of
town.
"This sounds so much like some
thing from my old friend, Mrs. R.,
that some editors are likely to
think the Western Union got the
copy balled up, but just the same
this acquaintance and understand
ing is new experience to me and /
recommend it."
Of course, Pegler isn't necessari-
ly going to become the worlds
leading liberal as result Of his con-
tact experience with two intelligent
Negroes who nevertheless deserve
a world of credit for the job they
did do. But think how far he has
come-to write so about members
of the Negro press.
The other subject, for which I
don't have much space left is the
expected opposition of Great
Britain and the United States to
the proposal of China that in the
formulation of a future world Sc
curity organization the principle of
equality of all races be acknowl-
edged. Closely tied to this, of
course, is the reported agreement,
entered into before the Dumbarton
Oaks peace parley got under way,
that no colonial questions would be
discussed.
Just how any great power can
even pretend to be working toward
a lasting and secure peace in the
world by hiding its head like an
ostrich from the mere mention of
the most pressing and vital prob
lens in world relationships is a
mystery.
Exploitation and oppression,
which are synonymous with i'm
perialism; and the insurgent urge
of all peoples to be masters of their
own fates are in some way at the
root of all wars. Certainly, it was
the root, stalk and bud of the
American Revolutionary War.
Can it be that the lesson taught
to Westbrook Pegler by Ralph
Mathews and julius Adams is one
that could be learned proftably by
the two great English speaking
nations of the world?
at all seems reasonable and
feasible when you just sit down
and meet as men and colleagues in
business and begin to understand
each other"

TuIe Lake Trio
Face Charges:
Jurors ndicf

SACRAMENTO, March 16-(UP)
"A federal grand jury has indicted
three inmates of the Tule Lake seq
regation center for admittedly dis
loyal Japanese on charges of illeg-
ally operating a radio transmitter.
The indictment declared that the
effect of the use of the apparatus
extended beyond the borders of
California" but Assistant U. S.
Attorney Emmett j. Seawall said
no information was available to in
dicate whether the three Japanese
actually communicated with enemy
agents.
Indicted were Yoshio KaWazoye
and Hideo Ray Kawazoye, brothers,
and Masanori Hirata. Bench war
rants were issued by Judge Martin
/. Welsh for their arrest and bail
was set at S2,5O0. Seawell said they
were still confined at the segrega-
ton center.
The radio transmission units were
discovered when troops took over
control of the center last fall after
disturbances, Seawall said.
Meantime, trial of Asaichi Walter
Imai, another Tule Lake inmate,
on charges Of stealing foodstuffs
from a government warehouse at
the camp was to be completed later
today. Four other japanese were
convicted OF possession of liquor at
the center and are serving terms
at the Mcneil island federal peni-
tentiary.

AFL, CI0 Riffs

WASHINGTON. March 16. CUP)
President Roosevelt, rebuffed by
the AFL on his proposal to divide
labor representation for an inter-
national labor conference, must
settle a new AFL-CIO dispute
stemming from the projection of
rivalries into international labor
relations.
The AFL has insisted that it con-
tinue to serve as the sole represent
tative of the American labor move
ment at conferences of the inter
national labor organization. The
CIO has demanded that it be given
equal representation.
At a conference with AFL Presi-
cent William Green and Secretary
OF Labor Francis Perkins last week,
Mr. Roosevelt asked the AFL TO
share representation with the CIO
for the ILO conference at Phila-
delphia next month. Each national
