1--WE believe" the cable read,
that the unmistakable democratic
expression of the British people in
the election represents reputation
of manner in which American, Brit
ish French and other reactionary
imperialist interests were safe
guarded by failure of the San
Francisco Conference to give real
guarantees for colonial advance
ment and independence.
British Labor victory provides
new framework for reopening colo
NAL question and formulation OF
genuine program for insuring Sc
curity and independence TO colonial
peoples throughout the world"
Paul Robson, who has had long
and close contact with British
workers and has repeatedly empha-
sized the fact that they are the
supporters of the colonial peoples
struggle for freedom, sees the cleo
ton results as the confirmation OF
this view.
There have been various ex-
pressions of British labor and other
progressive organizations in support
of a colonial policy radically differ
ent from that of Churchill, Gran
borne, Amery and other Tory lead
ers. These progressive policies, Off
GERS of the Council on African AT

possibility of beng put into prac-
tice.

"for Gods sake send Johnny home

I'm left with the kids"
"The kids" are John Patrick, S;

"And I'm proud to care for them
and I'm doing darned good job

I like it. But the kids keep crying
for their father and mother"
Grandfather Walsh described his
missing daughter-in law as "an ex.

And as the months went by she
became more and more respondent
and lonesome and she cried and

back.
And she would hug the kids and
tell them about their father and
how wonderful he was. 1t was

The Army is developing a
mechanical guide to show the blind
the way around obstacles.
The War Department announced
yesterday the Signal Corps has de-
veloped a model at its Bradley
Beach, IN. j., laboratories which
enables blind person to probe sur
roundings up to 20 feet.
In operation, the set behaves
somewhat on the principal of radar,
although a light beam instead of
projected microwaves is the basis.
The light beams, reflected back from
an object, actuates an earphone
with coded signals. One signal indi-
Gates objects from 20 to II feet. an
other carries the range down to II
feet, a third down to three feet.
Maj. Gen. Harry C. Ingles, chief
signal officer, said the device is not
sufficiently developed for practical
use, but progress is being made.
Present disadvantages of the set in
'ciude its weight, nine pounds, and
the fact 1t can not detect small
