THEY stood for moment facing
each other; and Joe thought: l
haven't delivered Margaret's mes
sage. He looked at Chuck, and
somehow the message he'd brought
seemed very frail and perlshable,
like a seeding that would not take
root 50 far from home. If FL were
here, he thought, she'd understand
my hesitation. 1t might hurt but
she'd understand that man cant
help growing into new experiences
and getting new viewpoints; she
wouldn't blame Chuck.
But he couldn't go back and
confess to Chuck's wife that he
hadn't delivered her message. 50
he'd say, Chuck, I've got a little
message for you from your wife
She said: Just tell him | love HIM
and always will. and I'm waiting
for the day when he comes back.
Chuck would receive it as any de-
cent man would. and thank him;
and he'd go away without know
ing just what was in Chucks
mind, how much or how little 1t
meant to him now, and if Margaret
and Eleanor and the things back
home we're changed and almost
remote to him.
All he could tell the two women
who so eagerly awaited his word
was that Chuck was fine in spite
of the sniper's bullet. and he sent
his love - which he no doubt
would.
CHUCK was lighting a cigarette.
Even his hands were no longer the
hands of kid. They were firm,
sure, disciplined, though you could
see the soft boyish hair on the back.

asked.

How'll you go?

Chuck tossed the match away.
New York." he said. Glory. I'd
give a lot to get to the big town.
He looked at Joe. Know what's

said brightly: "Oh, Charles gets

Try and stop me-" Chuck
grinned.
Joe accommodated his pace to
that of this man who swung be-
tween clutches - this man with
the lean, brown face. and easy
manners.
They walked through a sunken
lane, with mist of green foliage

the trees silvered with age.

They passed behind the old
church, with it's bell that hadn't
rung through all the dark days
when invasion threatened; but Joe
didn't see it very we'll; he remem-
bered the white steeple of the little
wooden church in Woodfeld, and

WOMEN LIST REASONS
FOR LOSING JOBS

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 6
(ANP)-Factors that determine
the retention and loss Of jobs for
women workers in the post war
period occupied the spotlight at the
staff conference of the metropoli-
tan YWCA in the Southwest Bel
mont branch here.
Job holding elements listed by
members of a "Women Workers
and Reconversion" discussion panel
included: attitude of women in re-
CARDS to jobs-whether they mean
to make careers or collect pay
checks; ability of women workers
to readjust themselves to peacetime
scale of salaries; release of women
with marginal skills developed by
wartime industrial needs; rate of
trend of industry selectively of
workers-i.e. request for male
workers whereas during the war
requests would have been just for
workers; return of veterans to jobs

NEW YORK, Oct. 5 (ANP)-
Fear Of the Ives Quinn Anti-Dis-

The new hiring policy, the vice

AME BISHOP DENIES LAYMAN'S
CHARGES OF DICTATORSHIP

LITTLE ROCK, Oct. 6 (ANP)
Bishop G. E. Curry, bishop Of the
18th Episcopal district of the AME
church, denied that his administra-
ton of Shorter college constituted
dictatorship.
Answering his accusers from his
Jacksonville, Fla, headquarters,
Bishop Curry charged that c. W..
Williams, a former janitor at
Shorter -Flipper-Curry college, was
responsible for his troubles. Will
liams, at whose home recent meet
ing was held to draw up a 25-point
grievance report, was fired for
failure to discharge his duty"
Bishop Curry said.
The AME laymen, submitting
their charges through an organiza-
ton known as the Square Deal
committee, accused the bishop Of
maladministration of the Shorter
Flipper-Curry college here. An ac-
counting of church and school
funds were demanded in the report
as we'll as charges of aggressive use
of dictatorial power against local
AME churchmen.
On the other hand, Bishop Curry
accused two or three of our
preachers" who had once bossed
the district, of being a party to the
anti-Curry movement. They lost
their power under his administra-
ton, he said. Shorter college, he re-
vealed, is not only out of debt but
has $4,000 in it's treasury. The
school had to borrow $1,000 from
him when eheld the first meeting
of the executive board, he said.
The Square Deal committee
pledged to fight for "fair play, de-
mocracy and justice for laymen and
ministers in the Arkansas AME
church." They accused Bishop Cur.
ry Of showing "such contempt for
us that patience is no longer a vir-
tue and silence means only coward
ice."

Griesmer Reports
HOllant Relief

Famine and disease were so wide
spread in Holland even before Nazi
capitulation, the German military au-
thorities were prevailed upon to per-
nit members of an Allied relief council
to pass through enemy lines under a
white flag, it is revealed in a report
of American Relief for Holland re-
ceived by Mr.. William P. Griesmer,
member of the Executive Committee
of the Hamilton and Butler County
Conlmunity-War Chest, through the
National War Fund.
In anticipation of the early liberia
tion of northwestern Holland, arrange
ments had been made by the council to
have fleet of mobile units, equipped
with food, medicines and medical per-
sonnel, follow Immediately behind the
liberating army, said the report.
Conditions became so critical and
the number of deaths from starvation
increased to such proportions that an
agreement was finally reached with
the German military commander to
call forward the emergency relief

COMMENT on WORLD EVENTS

age flour, the cans absorbing the shock
Of dropping from planes.
On Biak Island, a bakery unit suf-
fered its first strafing by Jap plane.
Working a 24-hour shift, bakers ex-
tinguished lanterns, covered oven burn
ers and dashed for their foxholes. Jap
plane guns drilled holes in every oven,
forcing operations to shut down. But
at dawn the platoon commander got
a portable welding machine, and that
afternoon, the bakery was doing busi-
ness as usual.
There was fresh bread at Noemfor
Island, in Wakde, at Toem, on Sansa-
por and Moratai Islands. Here the bak-
cry unit went in on D-Day plus l.
At Leyte, Philippine Islands, bak-
ers used an old wood burning oven.
Because Of begged roads due to tor
rental rains, an LVT, Mark carried
bread from the storage tent to place
accessible for trucks. Filipinos carried
bread on their backs up rugged peak
to men holding hill that commanded
a valley where Japs were pocketed.
First unit to operate bakeries on
Luzon was at Rosales. Others baked
at Tarlac, Dagupan, San Fernando,
San Fabian, Quezon City, Paranque,
Olongapo, Columbia, San Pablo, Batan-
gas and Legaspi. In Manila the Army
baked at a commercial bakery, now
operated mostly by civilians. Bakery
operations extend to other Philippine
Islands, and to islands north along the
road to Tokyo.

Nazi Labor Front
Being Purged

Washington, D. C.-The de-nazifica-
tion of German labor organizations in
the American zone of occupation is
now in it's final phase, the War De-
partment reports in a seview of the
labor policies of the Allied Military
Government and the progress being
made in carrying them out
The initial step toward restoring
free labor in Germany is the complete
liquidation of the German Lebor Front
which was the Hitler-created vehicle
for the elimination of democratic
trade unions, the War Department
said.
At the same time the Manpower
Division of the United States Group
Control council is engaged in the tre-
mendous task of channeling labor into
the industries which have been given
priority for restoration, such as mines,
railroads and public utilities.
1t is impossible to re-establish free
labor overnight in country where
most Of the industrial facilities are
reduced to rubble, where the workers
are still dazed by the destruction we
have wrought and where thousands
of young men are still prisoners of
war, it was pointed out.
The German Labor Front is now
closed and is in the process of final
liquidation. American authorities are
removing and excluding from posi-
tions in the labor field all members of
the Nazi party and all supporters of
Naziism in these offices because Of ad-
ministrative necessity, convenience or
expediency.

shop as a lever. 1t sounds good and is
convincing argument.
The workman who says he does not
believe in unions, does not want to
join union in order to work can,
we think, be compared to the social
ed conscientious objector who does
not believe in wars and killing his
fellow men. If he can prove the rea-
sonableness of his objection he is
given other duties; in other words, he
