OF NEGRO WA(5

FORT DES MONIES, Iowa,
Sept. II (ANP)-Lt. Gen. John C.
H. Lee, deputy commander and
chief of army service forces in the
European Theater of Operations
under Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower,
paid tribute to the work of the Ne
gro members of the Women's Army
corps in a speech at the First WAC
Training Center.
Stopping at Des Moines to visit
his 86-yearold aunt, the general re-
viewed a parade at the center. The
404th ASF band, the only All-Wac
Negro band in the country, played
for the event.
"No Wac in the ETO asked a CT
to do her work." the general said.
'The challenge was gloriously met
by our women of the armed forces
and their work has been perfectly
splendid. Every position held was
fully held. l saw many WAC de-
tachments including the Negro bat
talon and they all set a fine stand
ard of American womanhood of
which every soldier is proud"
Inspecting companies from the
overseas replacement depot whose
departure for the Pacific was re-
Gently cancelled with a directive
stating that there would be no more
overseas shipments of Wacs, the
general expressed regret that the
women could not be sent over as re-
placements for high point WACs
now on duty in the ETO.

NO MORE PASSPORTS
REQUIRED FOR BAHAMAS

NASSAU, Bahamas, Sept. II
(ANP)-The governor has issued
an order exempting all persons ar
irving in the Bahamas from the
necessity of carrying valid pass
ports. They now have merely to
satisfy the immigration authorities
that they are British subjects or
citizens of the United States. This
order is expected to greatly increase
the travel to and from the Bahamas,
especially from Florida. Normally a
considerable number of colored
tourists visit the Bahamas each
winter.

DILLON, S. c., Sept. II (ANP)
The youthful, progressive and
well liked Rev. Gregory David Col

ARMY WON'T AID RELEASE OF CORPORAL

COLUMBIA, S. c., Sept. II
(ANP)-James M. Hinton, state
president of the S. C. Conference
of NAACP, said that the army
would not intervene in the release
of Cpl. Jake Sullivan, under two
year sentence in the state peniten-
tiary following "blitzed" arrest,
beating and trial in Walterboro
June 10-11.
Hinton had previously an
nouced the corporal would be
turned over by the state if the army
requested him.
The announcement said that un-
der army regulations, Sullivan was
automatically dishonorably dis
charged from the service upon be-
ing convicted and sentenced to a
period greater than one year.
Hence, the army now has no jur-
isdiction in the case.
An alternate pardon action by
the states governor, announced last
week, cannot be taken until the man
has served 70 percent of his SEN
tence on good behavior. This means
that the soldier will have to serve
at least II months of the "a month
sentence.

RE(Y TAYLOR RApIST5 FACE
new GRAND JURY ACTION

BIRMINGHAM, Sept. II (ANP)
The Henry County Grand jury
which twice has refused to indict
the alleged rapers of Mrs. Recy
Taylor is scheduled to meet Sept. 20
in Abbeville, county seat.
Mrs. Carolina Collier BALM,
chairman of the Alabama Commit
tee for Equal Justice, has an
nounced that fresh and statewide
efforts are being made to bring
about indictment of the six white
youths charged with molesting Mrs.
Taylor.
She said that a delegation of
outstanding citizens will confer
with Gov. Sparks on the case. A
petition seeking the signatures of
5000 citizens, she asserted, will be
circulated. Three prominent inter
faith religious leaders will send a
letter to the governor urging action,
Mrs. Balm indicated. She said fur
ther that citizens are being urged
to send kilograms to the governor
calling attention to the need for
safeguarding womanhood.
Topping off all this, Mrs. Balm
said, will be an open letter to Henry
county citizens.
Organizations in addition to the
ACEJ described as supporting the
"Recy Taylor Case" are the Mobile
NAAC, the Southern Conference
for Human Welfare, the Montgom-
cry Equal Justice committee, the
Southern Negro Youth congress and
members of the Mobile CIO.

HOLD FUNERAL RITES FOR
RACES FOREMOST
WOMAN vI0LINI5T
BIZ Carl Diton

NEW YORK, Sept. II (ANP)-
Gertrude Martin IL, probably the
foremost woman violinist the Ne
gro race had ever produced, who
died following an operation, was
buried here after impressive serv-
ices at ST. Philips Church.
The talented young musician was
in the process of preparing for an
appearance at Town Hall as we'll as
one presenting t h e Br a h m S
Double concerto in collaboration
with a gifted violoncellist, Marion
Cumbe. Perhaps overly conserva-
tive as she was, it was her desire
not to follow many of her ill-ad-
vised colleagues but await greater
maturity before interpreting mas
ter-works professionally in down.
town New York. But seemingly her
conscience misled her and her true
worth and loss can now only be
proclaimed by those who have the
musical ideals of the race actually
at heart.
1t is of special interest that Miss
Martin sprang from a Negro fam
lily of brilliant string players. Her
deceased brother, Eugene, violinist,
her deceased niece and pupil Ger
trude III, violinist, displayed amaz-
ing talent, likewise her surviving
brother David on the violoncello.
Even her surviving mother, in
herited the double bass. Her father
founded the Martin-Smith School
of Music, one of the nations pio-
neer Negro institutions that for
many years exerted very definite
influence in Harlem.
Meticulous to the last degree in
interpretive preparation, the de-
ceased will always be remembered
for the artistry she displayed in
two annual appearances at How
ard University.

RUM0R SAYS 92ND DIVISION
Will BE BROKEN up
BEFORE IT RETURNS HOME

NAPLES, Italy, Sept. II (ANP)
The 92nd division will not re-
turn home as unit.
That rumor is circulating around
this area freely now and may be
based on an Interpretation of a
farewell address to the departing
91st division a few days ago. Ac-
cording to those who attended the
ceremony, the statement was made
that ''the 91st will be the last divi-
sion to leave here as a unit"
Evidences of decimating the
92nd have already been reported
but no detailed explanation as to
the reason has been made. From the
large number of white majors and
lieutenant colonels that come and
go, it is assumed they do not like
the idea of returning to the states
with Negro unit.
Furthermore, men are reported
to be transferred daily to service
units but the high-point men are
being shipped home.
'The outfit has been split to
hell" remarked an old member OF
the famous all-Negro combat divi-
sion. ''They are scattered all over
southern Italy. Some are guarding
prisoners, some material and others
escorting food supplies"
Members of the 92nd remember
the fact that they are combat
troops and resent the idea of as.
signing them to service units in
stead Of allowing them to return
home in triumph. They report that
they have lost their commanding
general, Maj. Gen. Almond, whom
they credited with finally being
liable to understand their problems
There is no knowledge of an ad
vance unit sailing from any Italiar
port to prepare for the arrival o1
the 92nd division as a unit at CamI

ABOARD AN ESCORT CARRIER
IN THE PACIFIC - Edward A.
Groh, %, anna first class. hus-
band of Mrs. Helen Groh, of Glas-
gov, Mont, has seen no action
aboard this carrier worse than the
typhoon that battered the ship in
the western Pacific in December,
1914.
He and hundreds of other men
aboard, using their body weight as
ballast, saved themselves and the
ship from disaster during the
storm. Every man not o watch
took UP positions weighing down
the side of the ship upon which the
wind and waves were pounding.
Slipping and stumbling through a
raging tide of seawater, oil and gas
oline on the hangar deck, the men
ran back and forth for hours to
place their combined weight of As
900 pounds against the seas fury
The carrier, top-heavy with planes
lashed to its flight deck, rolled to
a 40-degree list at the storms worst.
Wind and waves finally tore the
planes loose and sent them over
Until morning brought Gains, the
men worked constantly, without
meals or hot coffee.

Phone Service
Must Await
Close Of War

Many people who are waiting for
telephone service have asked
whether we will be able to serve
them soon, now that the European
war is finished" r. E. Stroman.
manager of The Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph company,
said today. a.,
I'm the first place there are more
than $4,000 people in our seven
states and so in Glasgow alone wait
ing for service" said Mr.. Stroman.
I'VE have been installing service
when facilities became available, in
the order of their application.
The end of the war in Europe
means that the day is nearer, of
course, when it will be possible to
manufacture all kinds of telephone
equipment. But now all of our ccun-
try's energies must be turned i'm
mediately to the swiftest possible
defeat of Japan.
When manpower and materials
become available for the unlimited
manufacture of telephone inStru-
mentS, until the wires between the
subscribers premises and the tele-
phone office, and the central office
equipment itself are available, OBJ
viously the telephone instrument
can be of no use.
After final victory reconversion of
our manufacturing plants will be
possible and it will be a different
story. But not a short one.
First the telephone factories will
nave to be reconverted to civilian
production and then they must turn

When was the first Pullman =
sleeping car built and placed
in service?
In 1859, George Nj. Pullman,
a young Chicago contractor, con-
verted two passenger coaches Of
the Chicago e. Alton Railroad into
sleeping cars at the railway COM
pany's shops in Bloomington, Illi-
nois. The first OF these cars made
its initial trip from Bloomington
TO Chicago September |, 1889. MI.
Pullman regarded the converted
passenger coaches merely as ex-
periments, and at Chicago in 1864
he began building the first real
Pullman sleeping car. Up to that
time the largest sum ever spent for
a railway passenger coach was
$4,000. Fully equipped, Pullman's
first sleeper, the Pioneer" COM
pleted and placed in service in
1865, cost S20.l78.
