RACIAL SHIFT IS Seen IN
INCREASE OF NEGRO Law
STUDENTS This FALL

CHICAGO, Sept. 13. (ANP)-The
large increase of Negro law stu
dents this fall means shift in the
economic standing Of the race, ac-
cording to Dean Noble w. Lee of
the John Marshall Law school.
The law professor cited here last
week the periods in which the eco
nomic standing of various racial
groups had shifted within 45 years.
In the period from 1900 to 1915, a
predominance of Irish students reg
istered for law classes, he pointed
out, while from 1910 to 1880 there
was an influx of Jewish students of
law.
Italian students were in the ma
jority in the immediate postwar
period following World War | but
Polish students took up the study
of law in great numbers from 1925
through the '30's. Today there
seems to be large increase in the
number of Negro students in the
law classrooms, Lee remarked.
He added that with economic
families point the education Of their
children to such professions as that
of law and medicine.

CHAPLAIN Sees ACTION
IN EUROPE, PACIFIC

HONOLULU, Sept. 13 AMP
Chaplain A. Mcneil " hite of Phil
adelphia has seen combat in two
theaters of war, European and the
Pacific. Courageously and gallantly
Capt. White participated in the sue
cessful march with two Yanks
against Germany, starting when
the allied juggernaut thrust it's in
vasion offensive in Normandy,
France. He was at that time with a
mighty AA balloon unit. After a
year in the European war, he was
among the first troops redeployed
to the far Pacific.
Following a few months of pre-
paratory work for the final push on
Japan, it wasn't long before "Holy
Joe" White was bound for Okinawa,
where one of the bloodiest battles
of the Pacific exploded. The water
loo of the Japs in Okinawa which
meant conquest for the allies,
brought a double triumph in COM
bat duty for the chaplain where one
of his contemporaries, Chaplain
Clarence E. Griggs, of New York
City, met his death.
His service as minister in civil
life entailed pastorship of leading
AME churches in several states.
He was commissioned chaplain in
Florida and formerly pastored the
Saint James AME congregation in
Miami.
Capt. White was educated at
Wilberforce and Allen universities
and Payne Theological seminary.

Volunteers Dropped By Div; Action Promised
ARMY TO cut POINTS
AGAIN, 50L0NS TOLD

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13-Con-
gress moved today toward ending
war time and building 5000 post
war airports. Between these tasks it
received word the Army's point
score will go down and discharges
up.
The house voted to set clocks back
an hour Sept. 80 and return the
country to standard time. The SEN
ate still has to OK this.
The senate voted to give states
and cities $75,000,000 a year for
five years to build 5000 airports
and fix 1,6OO existing ones. States
and cities will have to match fed
eral money. Now it's up to the house
to act.
But the big noise in congress was
discharges.
Congressional mailboxes have
been crammed with letters from
back home urging more and faster
releases of men from service.
The senate military committee
looked into that hot subject. 1t got
official word from Undersecretary
of War Patterson and from Maj.
Gen. Stephen Henry, assistant chief
of staff for personnel, that the
Army:
1. Wants to turn men loose as
fast as it can and will reduce the
80 points now needed for discharge.
2. Will be down to 2,500,000 men
by July l. The present size is a
little over 100000. Discharges will
let out 100000; the draft will
bring in 100000.
3. Has set up a special agency to
release men in cases of unusual
hardship.
4. Sees possibility OF ending the
draft before July l. (But congress
may stop it before then)
