ARMY'S new POINT SYSTEM
TO RELEASE 100000 OFFICERS

WASHINGTON, Sept. Supp
The war department today estab-
lished new discharge point system
for commissioned officers which
will return some 100000 of it's
100000 reserve officers to civilian
life by next July 1.
It estimated 100000 officers will
be Immediately eligible for dis
charge under critical point scores
to be computed on the same basis as
those for enlisted men. The officer
scores:
Coloncls, lieutenants colonels and
majors-100.
Captains and first and second
lieutenants-85.
Warrant and flight officers-80.
Nurses-65.
WAC officers of all grades-44.
Physical therapists and dietitians
Al.
The system applies to all arms
and services within the Army but
provides officers with lower scores
may be released for the convent
ence of the government where there
are no suitable assignments for
them. This means the Army air
forces will continue it's recently-an-
nounced special point plan for dis
charge of officers with lower point
scores.

new BOSTON HOUSING
NOW FOR NEGROES

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8 (ANP)
The disputed housing develop
ment in New Boston, Tex, is 60
ing ahead for Negro occupancy, the
National Housing Agency disclosed
Thursday.
In a letter to H. r. Pemberton,
superintendent of Hook school in
New Boston, Booker T. McGraw,
MIA housing analyst, assured him
that the Federal Public Housing
administration intends to stick to
it's original plan and complete the
project for Negroes.
Last March a controversy broke
out when the MIA yielded to the
demands of some whites to make
the project available to them rath-
er than to poorly housed Negro war
workers in the area. That position
has since been reversed.

NEW YORK, Sept. 8 (ANP)-
Warning that reactionary forces,

break the back of organized labor,
the United Christian Council for
Democracy has appealed to pro-
gressive church men and women
to enlist as fighting allies of the
workers in defense of the hard-won
gains of the trade union movement.
The battle of organized labor to
safeguard and extend it's rights
within constitutional lines is GER
tain to serve the common welfare
and to assure the rights Of all of us,
the council advised the 10000
church leaders over the nation to

content to talk from safe distance,
but ready to fight by their side, this
is the time for demonstrations"

MANY HAVE MEMORIES
ONLY FOR WAR PAY
Bg F. T. Lane

There is always wide speculation
as to the benefits which the civilian
population receives from a war
such as we have been fighting.
With the aid of all citizens, our
arms have been victorious. 1t seems
that mankind can organize and
prosecute a war on the battlefield
against a visible foe better than it
can conquer the peacetime evils of
fear, famine, and pestilence.
Most Negroes feel that the war
ended too soon because we will be
the first fired. Even an FEPC can't
help us when there are not enough
jobs to go around.
In Chicago, in spite of the case
with which too many spent too
much on useless items, some made
hay while the sun shone." For ex-
ample, every orothodox church con-
gregation paid off the mortgages
with which they were bedeviled
during the depression when As per
cent of the Negro population was
on public relief.
A few Negroes bought small pro-
ductive farms in Wisconsin, Michi-
gan, Illinois, and Indiana as a ref
uge in times of depression. But the
masses of Negroes will have fond
memories of the war days when
they brought chubby fur coats, five
and ten dollar shirts, snappy auto
mobiles, bottles and bottles of good
liquor. Some will unhappily recall
how they never made full pay
check because they spent too many
late hours in night clubs and could
not make time the next day. .
But when the depression deep
ems, no Negroes will commit suicide
because their standard of living is
lowered. They will spend their time
telling tall tales of what used to
be. Negroes have taught the world
how to survive under handicaps.
But what price survival? We must
not always be satisfied with just
surviving.

More vigilence in preventing en-
