crawled up into its nose and was
peering down into the water. Why?
Well, he explained, there were sup
posed to be a lot of floating Japa-
nese mines here, and he thought it
would be all right if we didn't bump
any of them.
'The next day we landed on Pa
nay, and were told the American
forces were all ganged up down at
it's southern end, and when we got
to them we reported to General
Chynoweth. Then we really were
in for it. Because it seemed the
old 10Th Bombardment Group had
left Mindanao for Australia; so they
grabbed us and attached us to a
Filipino Field Artillery regiment,
giving Jack Adams, Bill Railing,
and myself a battalion to command,
which we thought was going to be a
considerable honor, since we were
only lieutenants.
"Then we looked them over. They
were all about high-school age. Half
of them didn't speak English, and
the Job was to get them to under
stand you. OF course they didn't
know what to do with rifle, but
this didn't matter, because we had
only fifteen rounds of ammunition
per man-not enough for an hours
target practice.
''The Field Artillery part of it all
consisted of the name, plus six
sights for old World War French
75-millimeter field guns. The guns
themselves had been sunk on a sup
ply ship in Manila Bay. The sights
had been shined up and were in
prime condition.
'sWe didn't encourage these kids to
keep their rifles loaded, being afraid
that If one of the guns went off in
the dark they would start banging
away and shoot each other and
maybe us, so we gave them bayo-
net practice instead. Early in JAN
uary they moved us over to Caygay-
en- on Mindanao Island-we heard all
the troops from all the islands were
to make a stand there. But no Japs.
They gave us a section of the beach
a mile and half long to defend if
they came.
bright behind our lines there was
a small Jap colony. We knew they
were there, of conserved gone
through their houses looking for ra-
dio equipment, anything they might
use to send information to the Davao
9Japs-and we posted a small guard
around them. But they'd slip out and

went by with a big wh-h-h-i-i-ish-
sh-sh-the slugs beating tattoo
along the length Of the Forts wing,
with old Railing dreaming away
there, all relaxed in his seat, right
in the middle of them, and, believe
it or not, the boy wasn't even
scratched!
within three minutes Of the time
we crash-landed in the rice paddy
behind those tall trees we were sur
rounded by gang Of Filipinos, all
waving the longest, sharpest knives
you'd want to see. But pretty soon
we convinced them we weren't jap
anese, so they all got helpful and
told us we were on Masbate Island.
Because these natives wanted to
honor the American officers who
were fighting for their country, they
brought me donkey to ride. OF
course to have refused would insult
them, and yet I didn't dream the
kind of a deal I was getting into.
The first half-mile wasn't so bad,
and even thought I was lucky /
wasn't walking and getting sore feet,
like you do in the infantry. But
pretty soon I began to realize, first
just little bit, and then more and
more, that there are worse things
than having sore feet.
"We crashed on the fourteenth Of
December and on the twentieth we
bought an outrigger canoe for fifty
pesos, and hired natives to sail and
paddle us to the island of Panay,
with me getting chance to brush up
on my navigating. When we were
about forty miles from land I noticed
the skipper of this craft of ours had

Criminals Are Disgraced
By Song in South Seas

Instead of going to Jail for a
crime, the native of South Sea is
lands is punished by having song
written about him and sung to the
community. This method of dis
gracing sinners publicly has been
so effective that jails and guard
houses were unknown to the is
lands until recently when military
bases became established.
But even now, the islanders re-
gard being locked behind bars as
mild punishment compared with
having a song written about them.

THE STORY THUS FAR: Lieut.. Col.
Frank Kurtz, pilot Of the Flying Fortress
known as "The swoose," which escaped
from Clark Field, tells Of that fatal day
when the Japs struck In the Philippines.
Old 80, another Fortress, is struck down
before It can get on the ground. The
ground Is Uttered with the skeletons OF
u. 8. planes. No longer safe to sleep In
the barracks, because Japs are photo
graphing Clark Field, cots were moved
into the middle Of cornfeld. Later, they
evacuate to Mindanao, and as they ar
rive laps are already putting troops
ashore ON the island. Squadron Com
mander Major Gibbs goes out on secret
mission and fails to return. Harry Schrei-
Der, the navigator, takes up the story.

To Compel
SPANS Backing

WASHINGTON, April T. CUP) -
William P. George, the state de-
partment's Spanish expert, will
leave for Madrid soon, presumably
to hasten a showdown on Anglo
American efforts to halt Spanish
aid to Germany, it was learned
today.
The state departments decision
to dispatch its Spanish expert to
Madrid emphasized dissatisfaction
here at the slow progress being
made in the discussions. 1t also
blasted previous hopes in official
quarters that q settlement might
be reached this week.
In the discussions to which
the United States applied economic
pressure by hating oil shipments
to Spain-the Allies have sought
these detectives:
l. Custer of German agents from
Tangiers, strategic North African
zone, where they are in a position
to spy on military and naval move
ments through the straits of Glib
raltar.
2. Spain's release to the allies of
Italian merchant and naval YES
sells caught in Spanish ports at
the time of the Italian surrender.
3. A halt in shipments of wolf
ram, the ore from which tungsten
is made, from Spain to Germany.
Spain thus far has eliminated all
Axis agents from Tangiers except
the German consulate. The Allies
would also like to have the consul
ate closed since it has little basis
for remaining there as trade rep

Negro Republicans
Organize TOSeu
Dewey & Bricker

Washington, D. C. (NNPA)-
The Planning Committee for United
Minorities, outgrowth of the meet
ing of Negro Republicans held in
Chicago in February, is setting
up state organizations to properly
inform Negroes in the key states,
where they hold the balance of
power that only the election of the
Dewey-Bricker ticket will correct
the evils" from which they suffer,
according to Alexander Barnes,
publisher of the Washington Trib-
une.
Mr.. Barnes charges the Demo-
Gratis with showing complete dis
regard for the Negro vote at the
recent Democratic convention. He
accuses President Roosevelt with
failing to do anything about the
atrocities that are practiced upon
Negro soldiers by civilians, or about
the continued segregation policy of
the armed forces and the total ex-
clusion of Negro women from the
SPARS, WAVES, and Marine aux
iliary.
The committee, Barnes stated,
assailed Congressman William L.
Dawson Cd. of Ill., for what it
called the "most treacherous speech
ever delivered at a political con-
vention" when he said the Negro
should support the Democratic
party, come what may.
The Planning Committee is COM
posed of Republicans from many
states, among them: Indiana-Mrs.
Grace Wilson Evans and Sen. R. H.
Brockenburr; Kentucky-Hon.

and o. A. Saffell; Illinois-George

the final report of the membership
drive.
Clifford Rucker, Irving Blumberg
and Mrs. Irving Blumberg made
reports on the convention.
Rev. C. T. R. Nelson, president
of the St. Paul branch of the
NAACP, attended the meeting and
was called upon by the president,
Mr.. w. C. Jones, to say a few
words. Rev. Nelson took the occa-
sion to praise the Twin Cities dele
cations for its interracial compost
ton. The Twin Cities branches, he
explained, are greatly respected by
the other branches for their
achievement in interracial member
ship and activity, as we'll as for
being militant and progressive in
their endeavors.
At the meeting Harold C.
Combs, chairman of the member
ship drive, announced the complete
and final results of history-making
activities of "a determined COM
mittee members of the membership
drive. Mr.. Combs announced a
grand total of 1914 members
signed up with an income of
$1568.25 the largest ever achieved
in the history of Minneapolis
NAACP. Thanking all members
for their wonderful cooperation in
making the drive successful, Mr..
Combs paid special tribute to the
tireless work of his co-chairman,
Curtis C. Chivers.
Mrs. J. R. Shepard, campaign
secretary, read the names of all
of the campaigns committee to-
gether with the total amount of
money collected by each. Those
who were responsible for collecting
a hundred dollars or more are as
follows: Mr.. Harold C. Combs $208,
Mr.. Curtis Chivers $130.50, Miss
Allie Glenn SIG, and DR.. W. D.
Brown $1O5.50.
Although the membership drive
is officially over the NAACP, Mr..
Combs stated, will be glad to ac-
cept membership from all those
who have not yet had an oppor-
tunity to join.
To those who have joined Mr..
Combs addressed a word of pa
tience regarding membership cards
and the Crisis magazine. These will
be forthcoming just as soon as the
national office is able to tabulate
all the names and addresses.
Musical numbers for the pro-
gram were provided by Jean
Brown, daughter of DR.. and Mrs.
W. D. Brown, who played two
piano numbers, and Mrs. Curtis
Chivers who sang. Mrs. Chivers
was accompanied by her daughter
Constance.

strength sometimes experienced
during an emergency probably
saved the life of Mrs. Burie Car
michael, Jr., 3744 Fifth Ave. &c.,
who narrowly escaped drowning
last Saturday, July 20, while fish
ing on the banks of Lake Mime
tonka when she tainted and fell
in deep water.
Mrs. Charles Noble, 1892 Fourth

party allegedly sighted Mrs. Car
michaels hand through the clear
water, jumped in and though
weighted down by heavy boots she
was wearing, grasped her friends
hand and pulled her to safety.
Neither of the women can swim.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tela Burt, 2818
18th Ave. &c., were in the party but
were fishing about two miles away
at the time of the accident.
