Washington who has tried to i'm
prove the soul of the city,"
The colored officer said DR.. Harris
led a campaign to improve colored
housing conditions and declared.
THE job for which he should get
the most credit is the housing Job
he did, and the impetus which he
gave this most vital effort must be
continued If Washington is to face
the world as the capital of our
democracy"
In brief tribute, Municipal Court
Judge Almond w. Scott said DR..
Harris work was a signal for re-
newed effort on the part Of both
colored and white residents in

better place in which to live"

to Commissioner John Russell
Young, brought greetings from the
District Commissioners and said DR..

Orphan Areas Of Europe
Ruhr Problem Heightened
ByBorder Complications

incessant RAJ bombing raids, lat
er to put off capture by rampaging
American armies.
The Ruhr is listed among areas
demanding postwar international
attention because it has been, three
times in the last IS years, the ar
senal and forge and laboratory that
sustained German aggression.
From the bitter experience of the
past century, Europe might write
an alliterative equation: Reich plus
Ruhr equals ruin.
The latest attempt at world dom
nation backfired and brought ruin
to the Ruhr. Virtually everything
above the surface was blasted, fir
ed, scared, and twisted in one OF
the most thoroughgoing pre-atomic
bombing campaigns. Essen, home
Of notorious Krupps, and Dussel-
dorf and Cologne were worst hit
Of the areas largest cities.
But coal mines are hard to bomb,
and coal. is the basis of Ruhr
wealth. Shortly after We Day

of the areas numerous mines in

aged slightly. Technical executives,
left in charge of bombed factories
when the industrialist-owners fled,
told American and British officers
that with an Allied OK. most OF
the mills and factories could be re-
paired in short order. One plant
had actually prepared an exhibit,
with labels in English, showing the
peacetime articles the company
could turn out.
Many plans have been advanced
for the Ruhr's eventual peacetime
role. Some groups insist on its sep
aration from the rest Of Germany
and its establishment under inter-
national control. Others favor a
somewhat Cartha ginian settlement:
in this case, dismantling the fac
tories and shipping them as repair
atoms to victor nations, leaving the
Ruhr to farm for living as it
did 100 years ago. A third plan
would allow the area to rebuild and
resume production under strict Al
lied supervision that would permit
no switch to war goods.
At present the Ruhr lies entirely
within the British Zone Of Occupa-
ton. An Allied Coal Headquarters
controls production Of the coal 80
badly needed by liberated nations.
From offices in a gaudy Krupp pal
ace in north Essen, this largely
British military organization has a
potential labor pool of 300, 900 Ger
man miners, and could reach a
yearly output O. more than 100000
600 tons of coal, if Ruhr production
were brought up to prewar levels.
If the plan to internaitonalize the
Ruhr were carried out, it would be
an effort to recognize an economic
fact. The lower Rhineland, north
ern France, Belgium, Luxembourg,
and southern Netherlands form,
with the Ruhr, a closely knit eco
nomic and industrial unit. Ruhr
coal feeds industries in all these
countries. Lorraine provides 4
nearby source Of iron ore for Ruhr
blast furnaces. The Low Countries,
especially the ports Of Rotterdam
and Antwerp, are the doors to and
from this rich empire.
The term "Rhur'' is used in two
ways. In the first sense 1t is the
restricted area of the small Ruhr
river valley with its 25-mile chain
Of cities built squarely over the

WILLIAM LASSITER
WINS SCHOLARSHIP

Seaman William Edmund Las
sitter, son of Mr.. and Mrs. L. I.
Lassiter, 1910 Nun street. will be
one ex-serviceman who will have
no doubts about his future when
he is demobolized from the armed
forces.
A month after young .Lassiter
entered the Navy and went to the
Great Lakes Naval training sta
ton, he was notified that he had
won coveted scholarship offered
by the Pepsi-Cola corporation to
select group of 120 high school
students in the United States. A
total of $4,000 students took the
rigid examinations conducted to
determine the recipients Of the
scholarships.
Under the terms Of the Pepsi
Cola scholarship, one Of the most
generous Of its kind ever offered
to students, Lassiter will be able
to attend the Harvard Medical
school for four years. All tuition

him. and in addition he will re-
ceive $25 month each month he
attends school.
Winning the .Pepsi-Cola scholar
ship capped the honors Lassiter
took while he was student at
New Hanover high school. He was
an ROTC captain, member OF the
honor society, member. Of the stu
dent legislature and winner of the
Amy Bradley scholarship award.
Lassiter's mother hopes her son
will soon be out of the Navy. HE
hasn't been in very long, though, :"
she said yesterday. He is very
anxious to 60 to Harvard. And
I'm anxious for him to go.'' 81
In dollars and cents the Pepsi
Cola scholarship will be worth at
least $500 to Lassiter, who is 10
years Of age. But the distinction
of winning the scholarship in a
field of $1,000 participants un-
doubtedly means just as much to
him. In North Carolina there were
321 students competing for the
scholarships. ..... -
