What Difference Peace Made in Uncle Sans Navy!

Ships must be handsome now Men
must wear white or well-pressed winter
blues, for this is no longer the Dun
garee Navy" which fought the war in
practical garb. Ships BARRIERS are do
ing a rushing business because COM
manding officers are beginning to re-
member regulations and sailorman's
hair can be only 2 inches long.
The U. S. S. Missouri is a typical
American warship. 1t is run by, and
for. approximately 5000 souls-most of
them very young. Four-fifths Of the
crew are Reserves. Most of them had
never been to sea before they enlisted
or were drafted
They never knew the peacetime
Navy. They are getting acquainted
with it laboriously now. Just as the
return of meat and gasoline brought
full realization to civilians that the
war had ended. so young sailors are
beginning to know it is over for them.
too.
No More Blackout Nights
The Missouri's crew fought hard.
Every man-jack of it CROPPED to gun
positions and battle stations at 2 o'clock
each morning for months in the Far
Eastern ocean. They lived by their guns
and instruments to protect their ship
against the bombers and kamikaze
fanatics who came so often. Some

Star STAFF Correspondent.

The first peacetime Navy Day since
1941 yesterday gave the public chance
to look at the sea-power which humbled
the enemy, and the public was i'm
pressed.
The sailors who fought these ships
most of which returned to a score of
East and West Coast ports recently
after long stays in the Pacific sea
frontier to go on exhibition-have ex-
perienced let-down at the sudden
change in the daily lives.
1t was that way aboard the famed
surrender ship U. S. S. Missouri on the
long haul from Tokyo Bay to New York
City. 1t was very strange to run with
lights after dark. 1t was odd to hear
the. squealing of holystone against wood,
and to see brass work sparkle in the
sun.
No 'Dungaree Navy Now
The names of the ships now sit
proudly on the bows in four-foot let
tiers where during the war there were
only small numbers. Paint brushes
have been at work on steel plates. Bat
tleship gray and the crazy stripes of
camoufiage are giving way to hundreds

brown hands

times, after o'clock at night, they
could pick their way back again to bed
in holds made humid because portfolios
were dogged down to keep the blackout.
1t Is strange. now, but good, that bell
and klaxon no longer start men from
their nervous sleep an hour before every
sunrise for the universal General Quar-
ters" of wartime.
To some, the best of it is the pleasure
of smoking on deck in the cool night air.
Once men were court-martialed for that.
Courts martial have changed, too. No
more do the specifications against ac-
cused sailormen end with the dread
phrase the United States then
being in state of war;"
With Lights Ablaze
Sponsors, the metal tubs which hold
the light guns, are being rooted up here
and there. Radiomen tap out messages
to ships and shore because no enemy ear
listens. Movie actors promenade again
on taut canvas and the crew of the
Mighty Mo- duly comes out at night
fall to watch the show from perches on
the plane catapult or the "fantail."
Passing through the Caribbean, hefty
young sailors fought it out with gloves

graveyard of many brave ship during
the war days.
Today the young officers, the ensigns,
jaygees and lieutenants are having
their day in school sessions on the Mis-
souri,. Many Of them never had time to
master aught but their own speciality
during the war. This much has not
changed: The ensigns aboard the bat
tleship still live gregariously. Il to a
crowded bunkroom. Their quarters are
facetiously known as Boys Town"
Visitors Aboard
Everywhere in the sprawling Navy
their is painting and chipping and
scrubbing because there will be many
visitors, celebrities and just people.
There will be other ceremonies to honor
the ship on which the emissaries of
Japan surrendered nation.
The boatswains are practicing shrill,
cabalistic whistles on their pipes; the
Marines are perfecting honor guard
formations and side boys are rehearsing
salutes for the coming Of the admirals,
generals and Presidents.
There is a strange new call on the lips
of the buglers now. 1t is lifting call
which brings grins to. the faces of the
crew and causes furious shoe shining
and pants pressing. 1t is liberty call" !"
This is all passing strange to our
fledgling Navy, but they love it..

Hughes as early as 1889 in the design of
the ship. The two men then were form
ultating plans for the extension of TWA
into the international field and designed
the Constellation to meet the demands
for this type of service. Lockheed was
selected to build it and delivery of the
first plane was planned for August, 1910.
But the war interfered with the Frye
Hughes program and it was not until
April of last year that the Constella-
ton was ready for its first long test
flight.
Then Mr.. Frye and Mr.. Hughes set q
trans Continental speed record by flying
the plane from Burbank, Calf, to the
National Airport here in less than seven
, hours.

TWA has not announced its trans
Atlantic rates, but competitive condi-
tions seem to assure that they will be
in line with those of Pan-American and

All around the globe, from Europe,
Africa or Asia to the islands of the

happy to see Uncle Sans big bomber

Even in Japan, from which returned
few days ago, people standing amid
the ruins of their homes and war fac
tories have learned to look up to Amer
ica's mighty air fleets with admiration
rather than terror, and with certain
hope for the future.
These people. like the small business
men. the more or less timid liberals of
many countries, are beginning to hope
for return of free trade, accompanied

suit of flying for the Army and Navy
during the war. The second advantage
will be greater capital resources and an
aircraft industry geared to turn out
better planes at faster rate than that
of any other country.
At the present time, the only foreign
line operating into the United States Is
the British Overseas Airways Corp,
whose flying boats enter Baltimore and
also are authorized to land at Norfolk
and Charleston. BOAC at the present
time charges $572 for a one-way and
$1,029 for round-trip journey to Great
Britain. 1t is expected, however. that
and the expected reduction by other
United States lines will force foreign
competitors to scale down their fares
Foreign Air Lines
Two foreign airlines which are likely
to enter the United States soon are the
well-known Dutch company, kim,
which carried on a far-flung service in

and the Swedish National Airlines. Both
have been making experimental flights
to this country.
AS has been the case with all forms of
transportation, the steadily growing
competition In the international avia-
ton field will rebound to the benefit of
the public.It will result in faster sched-
ules, better accommodations and lower
fares. The latter may be expected to
drop progressively as an increasing
amount Of air trafic makes reductions
economically possible.

1t is by no means visionary to predict
that half a decade from now Wash
ingtonian may step to the ticket window
of an airline and ask for passage to
Europe with the same matter of fact
nonchalance as he now shows in re-
questing it to the West Coast. Both the
time schedule and the price Of the two
trips will be approximately the same.

BILL DEFEATED

LITTLE ROCK, Feb. Is (ANP)
Negro passengers on busses and
streetcars will go on mingling with
whites, according to recent action
by the house of representatives
which defeated jimcrow bill by a
vote of 19 to So. The measure called
for separate compartments for
white and Negro passengers on
streetcars and buses.
Passage of the bill would inten-
sify racial troubles" contended Rep.

ator, though the author of the stat
ute seemed firm in his belief that
the measure would keep down radi-
cal friction, especially in some cas-
tern counties where Negroes out
number the whites.
