TROY-Paul Ewing, 81, Negro,

was reported in fair condition yes
terday in Stouder Memorial hos
pital, suffering from bullet wound
in the left thigh, inflicted Sunday
morning when John Rong, 63, Troy,
allegedly shot him with 20 pistol.
Ewing was reported shot when
Rong, in fit of temper, approached
the formers tent, west of the
county fairgrounds, and found Wa
meta Burden, 26, of 2O8 Harrison

uty Sheriff Walter Wintrow, in
vestigating the case, stated yester-
day that Ewing refused to talk and

Father O'Callahan, himself listed
as a hero that fateful day when

Describing his own act, which
has been hailed as the highest ex-
ample of courage, Father OCalla-
han suggested that the definition Of
bravery be redefined. he told of how
faith in God inspired a frightened
Filipino lad to lead so men in fight

"Perhaps this example from that
terrible March 19 will show what I
mean," he said. "There was group

CHICAGO, June 26 (ANP)-
The American Negro is making his
contribution to victory.
That was the praise given the
Negro here by Supreme Court JUS
tice Hugo L. Black when he spoke
at an interracial 7th war loan din
ner in the Morrison hotel. Paul

CHICAGO ANTI-NEGR0
GROUPS Object TO
WAC HOUSING Site

CHICAGO, June 26 (ANP)-
Eight anti-Negro business and real
ty organizations bordering on the
South Side Negro community sent
telegram last week to Secy of War
Stimson opposing the housing Of
80 colored Wacs in barracks in
Burnham park located in an all
white area.
The telegram said the army chad
not cooperated in promoting har-
monious race relations" and de-
clared the action was "a plan on the
part Of a few agitators to impose
Negroes in a white community. The
Wacs are technicians serving at
Gardiner General hospital.
Some of the protesting organiza-
tions are identified with the for
nation and maintenance of restric-
tive residential covenants which

ElHE pre-eminent role played by
Il the Sperry Gyroscope Company
In the research, invention and de.

DR.. William Cooke. Director of
Radio Research of the company

struments and controls for the
Armed Forces during World War II
rs we'll as World War |.
Sperry's role in radar develop
ment dates back to 1888 when ar
rangements were made with Sigurd
Ind Russell Varian to continue
their research in the field of ultra.
high frequency radiation at larger
levels of power than could be OBJ
tanned by the orthodox triods. This
development was suggested to the
Varians through the creation, by
DR.. w. w. Hansen of Leland-Stan-
ford University, of device called
the Rhumbatron, the primary pur-
pose OF which was the so-called
atom smashing"
Because of our work on the
means Of generating and receiving
ultra high frequency energy, we not
only began ourselves to apply it in
practical way but were requested
by Government departments to un-
dertake certain problems in which
the CIV emanation of high freuuen-
Smyrna times., 1945-10-11

cies would have advantages. The
result of this was that in the early
days we were always working in
higher frequencies and shorter
wave lengths then in use in the art
or common practice. 1t was natural,
therefore, that the Services turned
over to us quite a number of the
early problems in the very short
waves. One of the earliest of the
problems was bombing through
overcast" DR.. Cooke said.
Other important Sperry contribu'
tions in the field of radar, in addi,
tion to the Klystron tubes in a
great variety for a multiplicity OF
purposes in a multiplicity of wave
bands, are airborne radar for sur
face search and airborne radar in,
terceptor for night fighters. Sperry
developed and is manufacturing
units for combination surface search
and interceptors and automatic ra.

for ground anti-aircraft.
Radar control for searchlights,

Liberation

Liberation
There Is accommodating evidence
that the West is being liberated
from the artificial. trade restric-
tions which have long penalized
western buyers. Several OF the
largest household equipment
manufacturers have recently an
nounced that their products will
be sold in all parts Of the United
States at the same price.
Up to the present time the west
ern market has been charged an
average Of approximately 10 per
cent more for such goods than
eastern areas.
It is yet too soon to determine
II this reform will be applied ia
farm machinery, automobiles and
other heavy equipment. We think
that eventually it will. The ever
increasing purchasing power Of
the citizens Of the western states
should sooner or later force this
change and place US on q COM
plete price parity with other sec
tons Of the country.
The fact that western industry
is fast developing its own pro-
ductive capacity and Is challeng-
ing eastern manufacturers for the
market in this area is another
factor which undoubtedly hast
ened the price adjustment.
Anyway, we're glad some price
changes are being made, even
though long overdue. Now let's
have more of theml
