Down south, in the days Of WASH
ington Irving, visitors were amazed
at the ease with which women rode
on horseback from one plantation to
another. But how much muscle
ever felt the impact of the horse is
doubtful, for the ladies used riding

they were proper, and anyone who
suggested they act otherwise was
just not gentleman.
First attempts to get this nation

A sixteen-year-ol girl, Barbara
Ann Scott, recently won the North
American figure skating champion
ship. Babe Didriksen matches her
golfing skill against men. At least
one male basketball team has a
feminine player.
Such notes are almost routine
news these days, as women demon
strate their skill and strength in the
field of sports. But one look at
the history CT American women in
sports makes a gal wonder how the
first adventurous female managed to
convince the menfolks she could
even lift a tennis racket.
Time was in this country when a
girls only form of exercise was
dancing-and in polite society the
ladies' used up more emery reaching
for their smelling salts and fans than
than they did tripping the light fam
tastic.
AS matter Of fact, back in the
carly 1600's, even dancing was pro-

were too much for them to tackle,
so they were given safe tricycles, on
which they pedaled back and forth
to the tune of about $3.50 per bike.
Wind and momentum raised certain

VETERANS GUIDE
By MAJOR THOMAS NJ. NAL

school he works full time, he will
receive no subsistence allowance.
That clear? OK. Now look at the
veteran who gees to school part time
/ The Veterans Administration con-
siders a full college course as con-
sisting of not yess than II semester
hours per semester. In schools other
than college trade schools, high
schools, etc. IS clock hours OF
training per week are considered tc
be a full course. Both are gener-
ously low figures. Soft veteran
takes a course calling for less hours
than I've just mentioned, the school
and the veteran will be paid pro-
portionately less.
An ex-service man goes to school
and takes q semester hours per
semester A full course is II or
more hours per semester. He will
get nine-twelfths of his monthly
subsistence pay. He will not get
the full $50 per month. But he can
have whatever he earns part-time.
That answers the two questions,
I think. If I ever have a nervous
breakdown, I'm going to name it
after the Veterans administration.

1iyed.iistIess? Oh

Do you feel headachy and upset due to
poorly digested food? TO feel cheerful
and happy again your food must be
digested properly.
Each day, Nature must produce about
two pints Of vital digestive juice to
help digest your food. If Nature fails,
your food may remain undigested--
leaving you headachy and irritable.
Therefore, you must increase the flow
OF this digestive juice. Carter's Little
Liver Pills increase this flow quickly
often in as little as 80 minutes. And,
you're on the road to feeling better.
Don't depend on artificial aids to
counteract indigestion-whenC Carriers
Little Liver Pills aid digestion after Ma
lures own order. Take Carriers Little
Liver Pills as directed. Get them at any
drugstore. Only 25s.

WASHINGTON - I found this
message from the AP New York
office in my mail box:
"A personnel man from the Army
whose job is. to lecture to men on
shipboard wounded men on way
hack to US9 regarding their
rights as veterans, reports two big
questions recurring are:
L. Should 1 elect to take full
course at college, will the money
advanced he deducted from any
veterans bonus 1 might receive later
on?
2. Can I elect to go to school
part time and work part time,
Well, if I had to give a flat
answer. to question No. l it would
have to be Yes. Money advanced
for education would be deducted
from any later bonus. And, right
at this point, let's all understand
The same is true of any money paid
by the government for benefits to
any veteran under the CT Bill OF
Rights. The last section on the last
page of the CT Bill says in effect
that any benefits received by, or paid
for, any veteran under that Act
shall be charged against and de-
Quoted from any future bonus. But
we all ought to remember that there
is no bon,ls-and there may never be
any. won't stick my neck out by
making any prediction on this.
Nevertheless, Rep. John Lesinski
(Mich.) has introduced bonus
bill in the House, and Senator
Joseph Guffey Pa) has one in the
Senate. 1 don't know whether either
bill has chance of being adopted.
To get back to question No. l, the
answer is that as things stand now,
{ any payments under the CT Bill for
the education Cor subsistence while in
.training) of any ex-seryice man
would be deducted from any bonus
which possibly later may be paid.
Mastering -out pay is NOT consid-
|, cred bonus. There always seems
to be "but' to every answer and
there's a but" to question No. l..
wounded men eventually fall into
separate group.
Many of them, of course, recover
completely. Others may be left with
disabilities If later they are given
"a disability discharge, they possibly
will qualify for some education or
training under Public Law No. 16.
This is known as vocational re-
Mobilization law. The average dis
abled man will get better break
towards education or training under
that law than under the Gil Bill, and
any cost to the government under
public 16 oiH not be deducted from
any future bonus.
Now let's take Question No. p
Can elect to go to school part time
and work part time? Answer: Yes.
But-here we go again. There are
limitations.
Suppose we first consider an ex-
service man who goes to school full
time and works part-time. The
school would be paid, subject to a
top of $500 for the ordinary school
year-meaning 80 to SO weeks. The
veteran would also get his. $50 per
! month for subsistence (S75 if mar
ried), plus whatever he earned him.

FEPC Gets Lip Service" Only From
President, NAACP Board CHARGES

Washington, d. C.-The Tru-
man administration is giving only
Zip service to the principle of
fair employment practice and

block FEPC efforts "at the very
source of its authority" accord
ing to a resolution adopted by
the Board of Directors of the
NAACP and telegraphed to the
White House.

tration with issuing fair words
without effective actions" the
resolution declared: "We believe
it is time for the administration
to demonstrate whether it pro-
poses to take any effective action
lnsuring fair employment prac-
tees for all Americans.
The text of the resolution trans
mitted to President Truman by
Walter White follows:
"One of the most important
problems in this Nations return
to peace-time economy is the
right of every American to be
employed without regard to race,
creed, color or religion. AIDE
quate federal machinery to guar
antee fair employment practices
is imperative. The present adj
ministration in Its platform last
year became dedicated to this
principle. Since that time the
present administration has given
nothing more than lip service to
this principle in the face of fire.
quent opportunities to support
the existing FEPC and to enact
legislation for a permanent fed
eral agency.
Congressional leaders of this
administration, while making no
effort whatsoever to facilitate
the enactment Of legislation for
fair employment practice, have
taken part in legislative maneu-
vers to render the emergency
wartime agency ineffective by
depriving it of necessary funds.
Recently the President has in
substance repudiated the present
FEPC by summarily prohibiting
it from issuing a directive against
discrimination in public transport
tation in the nations Capital pro-
posed after careful investigation
and elaboration. Thus, although
the president has expressed his
desire that the committee con-
tinue to function during the re-
conversion period, its efforts to
do so are blocked at the very
source of its authority"
