white VETERANS Sees AID
FOR RACE justice

COLUMBIA, S. c., July 13
(ANP)-'If the white people of
the south do not accord the Negro
his full justice Immediately, when
we white soldiers come back we are
going to do it," This was the advice
of white veteran Of the European
theater from Spartansburg, S. c.,
to the executive committee of the
South Carolina Interracial commits
mission which met here.
The young soldier told the body
that thousands of young white
men like me-many from the south
have fought and died with Ne
gro soldiers in Europe, and we are
determined that the Negro shall
have his full rights as citizen"
The war was caused, the veteran
said, because of racial segregation,
discrimination and prejudice.
"Those things defeated Germany"
he continued. 'They are defeating
us here. Many thousands of young
white men who have seen Negro
soldiers fight and die, have come
to know that the Negro is just as
competent and deserving as white
men. Those men are determined to
help the Negro get his justice and
are agreed that it is the first job
to be undertaken after Japan is de-
feated."

NEGRO GI'S HANDLED
Is PERCENT OF
MUNITIONS IN EUROPE

LIE HAVRE, France, July IL
(ANP)-The courage displayed by
colored ordnance men was cited
here by Maj. Gen. Henry B. Saylor,
chief ordance officer of the ETO. In
paying tribute to the men, he pointed
out, that these men handled rs per-
cent of all ammunition used by
American forces in Europe.
In the 101 ordnance companies,
there were rs colored units which
operated forward ammunition sup
ply points, known as ASP's up front,
from which ammunition of all types
was supplied to infantry, artillery
and armed units.
"Not only did these colored troops
pass the ammunition said Gen.
Saylor, "'but on numerous occasions
many of them fought the Germans,
participated in patrols and took
prisoners"
The members of the 655th ord
nance ammunition company un-
loaded train load of white phos-
phorous shells on December 26 near
scissors, France, while shells were
exploding all around them. And an
other unit, the 57th Ordnance Am
munition Co., earned the name of
the Fighting 57th" when some of
the personnel fought pitched bat
tie with 81 German SIS troops near
the Belgian Border in September
with SO Germans being killed.

JAW Votes 10 Continue
Pledge 10 Avoid Strikes
BY she Associated Press.

By she Associated Press.
MINNEAPOLIS, July 20.-The
Executive Board of the CIO United
Automobile Workers Union late yes
terday voted to continue its no
strike pledge for the duration Of
the war without modification, r. ].
Thomas, president. said last night.
The vote came after close ballot
in which the % committeemen
turned down a proposal to submit
the issue of continuing the pledge
to its more than 100000 members.
The referendum would have been
taken by mail during September,
but the motion for it was defeated
by an HILL split of the voters.
Mr.. Thomas explained that, while
the vote was tied. it was recorded
as defeated, 800 to 593, on the basis
of paidup board members repre-
sented.
Earlier, in an interview, Mr..
Thomas said that victory over Japan
would be the signal for him to start
authorizing strikes. He added.
There will be a lot of them; we
will authorize strikes in every plant
where a present grievance continues
to exist"

BY ALICE EvERsMAN.

There were many compensations
for the fact that the midweek con-
cert of the National Symphony at
Wednesday and given last night
after a day of uncertain weather
conditions. Nature provided one OF
the compensations in the beauty
spread across the sky at the sun
set hour, where the faint moon, out
lined through a mass of rosy clouds
and vivid blues, red and silver,
crowned the brooding dimness OF
the Virginia shore The others
lay in the playing of Mischa Elman,
whose poetical mood spoke through
his violin and the splendid per-
formance Alexander SmallenS, in
his second appearance as guest con-
ductor, attained with the orchestra.
Unfortunately, not as many peo-
pie were present to hear and to see
all this beauty. The on-again-o L
again rainy pattern of the day
might have continued into the eve
ming and the concertgoers were
wary, but one look at the glory lac
ing the sky at the Water Gate ana
one was at ease regarding the
weather.
The program was shifted to the
extent of placing the numbers
scheduled after the intermission in
the first part, concluding the con-
cert with the Brahms symphony
No l." listed originally for its OPEN
ing. 1t may be heresy to believe
that Mendelssohn's "Ruy Bias
Overture" set the mood better than
the Brahms symphony might have
done, but the spirited playing OF
the overture by the orchestra def
|nitely put one in receptive frame
of mind.
1t was not difficult for the elo-
ouence that Elman entices from his
violin to be impressive. He chose
the Bruch Concerto in G Minor
for his appearance and reveled in
the opportunities for his soulful
tone to have sway. 1t was mag
nificent performance of luscious
sound and finely worked out details
The deliberation with which Mr.,
Elman played the first two move
ments allowed full enjoyment OF
exquisitely developed crescendos,
of pure, vibrant high tones and OF
the clean accents and short, DASH
ing runs. The last movement
would have benefited from more
