Chevrolet Saves
High-Test Gasoline
BY sLER FREEMAN

Precious high-test gasoline i1
being saved in the Chevrolet
aviation engine plants in the
testing of Pratt and Whitney
engines, M. f. Coyle. general
manager of Chevrolet. revealed
today. The savings, 1t is esti-
mated, will total about 4,500,.
600 gallons.
Preheating of the engine oil
prior to testing is the secret.
Early tests showed savings OF
so gallons per engine tested by
this device. In dollars, the gaso-
line would cost about 81 600, 900.
The high-octane gas would
supply a Liberator with fuel for
400 missions over Germany or
5000 automobiles for an entire
year, on wartime basis. And
how about all the coupons
Chevrolet engineers devised
the preheating. which consists
OF an arrangement of tubes
within a cylindrical container.
Steam from the powerhouse
surrounds the tubes. Oil circu-
lates in the tubes until IL
reaches between 16l and 167
degrees before il enters the en-
CINE TO be tested. II was found
that the preheating reduced the
gasoline used on test from IS

Air|ines Get
800 Planes

NEW YORK, March -14=The
latest ALLEGATION of airplanes by
the Surplus Property Board brings
to $50 the number of domestic
air lines will soon have in opera
tion. one more than the prewar
peak.
The latest batch OF five DC-3s
going TO domestic air lines will
have to be reconditioned before
they are placed in service, il was
stated.
American Airlines, United,
TWA, Mid-Continent, and North
east each got one. Pan-American
Grace Airways, the South Ameri-
can operator, also received one
and Panair Do, Brazil, another
Pan American Airways affiliate,
also received a DC-3.
The Dutch KIM Line and the
Lloyd Aero Boliviano were also
recipients of one each.
This growing fleet Of planes will
help TO offset the reduced mail
and passenger rates being placed
in effect this year.
However, it is not likely that
many more DC-3 planes of the
type suitable for conversion will
be turned over 10 the airlines, as
the main supply of this type al
ready has been turned over TO
the domestic air operators. But il
will be several months before all
the new planes are operating.
There is a chance that-saEly
next year the first postwar models
such as DC-4s and C-46s may

PREPARE FOR VICTORY GARDENING now

1t is interesting to note, how
ever, that Bilbo used the occasion
to attack the appropriations made
to Howard University, and to point
out that it is the only educational
institution in the country support
ed by federal funds. He was using
it as a point to prove that the white
folks of America are the ones being
Disseminated against, not Negroes.
He said he would seek a law in
the District of Columbia outlawing
inter-marriage of the races, and
possibly one to outlaw such mar
riages in all states.
On his desk during the debate,
he had most of the recent best
selling books on the Negro-Ray-
ford Logan's "What the Negro
Wants." Richard Wright's "Black
Boy" Roi Ottley's "New World
A-Comin'," Lillian SIN i h S
"Strange Fruit" and Gunar Myr-
dal's can American Dilemma, 7"
among others.
During most of his "extended re-
marks" he was baited by Sen. Lam
ger, Republican of North Dakota.
LANCER left the Republican side of
the Senate to take up a position
right in front of Bilbo. He swung
his chair around so he could
watch" Bilbo's every word. At one
point, when he was called out of the
chamber, he told Bilbo, "Ill be
back" It was timely remark, for
the Senate floor was almost empty,
though the galleries were full
watching the circus performance.
In unity there is strength; in
goodwill there is prosperity; in
tolerance there is progress-prog-
ress towards better and a happier
America.-Eric Johnston.

MOVE ON FOOT TO
SEGREGATE NEGROES IN
EEnER DARKC IN GAnIN A L

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA).
There is undercover discussion in
Congress-particularly in the Sen
ate, where Bilbo of Mississippi is
chairman of the District Committee
of legislation to enforce segre-
cation of the races in federal parks
in the nations capital.
A well-planned strategy has been
worked out leading to this goal.
Here are some of the developments
so far.
A concerted effort is being made
to get Harold L. -Ickes out as Sec
rotary of Interior. Ickes has been
adamant in his attitude against
segregation on federal property. He
has charge of all federal parks and
areas in the District. A subtle
newspaper and radio campaign is
being waged limiting at his resigna-
ton and replacement by Pres. Tru-
man, in an effort to force it.
The D. C. Recreation Association,
working hand in glove with the Dis
trict Commissioners and the Senate
District Committee, has reaffirmed
it's policy of segregation in recrea-
ton areas under it's jurisdiction,
The National Capital Park and
Planning Commission is working on
it's 1947 budget estimate for the
purchase of lands to complete its
Fairgrounds and park projects, and
has instructed its executive COM
mittee to discuss it's program with
the D. C. Recreation Board.
Last week, the Senate District
Committee (Bilbo's group dis
cussed how to maintain racial seq
regation at the National Airport
federal project under the Depart
ment of Commerce, which is in Vir-
ginia. The District Commissioner,
Guy Mason, has shown his coopera-
ton by saying publicly he does not
want the airport in the District, in
settlement of the Virginia-D. C.
boundary dispute, because they
don't want US to issue a liquor
license and set up bar there"
Bilbo, discussing the recently en-
acted House bill on the Virginia
D. C. boundary, said the Afro
American newspaper wants the bill
passed $50 Negroes can fraternize
by eating in the white peoples din
ing ROOM"
At the present rate, the nations
capital soon will be annexed to the
state of Mississippi.
