- GORGE YOUNG, a cheerful eN-

49, the most surprised men in Lon
don these days. He's amazed TO find
himself probably the worlds highest
paid author
Writing isn't Georges trade, but
his one masterpiece consisting OF just
II wellchosen words has netted him
a fortune.
George wrote those II words back
in 1888 when, just out Of His Males
ty's service, he answered an elderly
gentlemans advertisement for a man
servant Nobody TO beat about the
bush, George got to the point al once:
Dear Sir, beg to apply for po

George made good in the job And
after his employers recent death he
was amazed to learn that Williams
had bequeathed him $1,000, the 10.

a small weekly allowance for life
Williams further directed that

employers say the number Of short,
pithy job applications has increased
daily in recent weeks.

BIackout-by WIdcdfSlzK1~- -

@OUTHERN California has pro
duced a bigger and better cat
- tale than the famous one about
the -tpIe-e -eatS-e Kilkenny that were
hung over a line with their tails tied
together. The Kilkenny pair, il will
be recalled, ClaWed each other 10
pieces.
California's feline scrappers were
not domesticated tabbies, but 35-
pound mountain wildcats-the worlds
fiercest fighters for I heir weight.
They also battled it out on line one
night recently-a high power trans
mission line. And they not only
achieved simultaneous destruction by
electrocution, but they managed in
so doing to black out the lights and
power all over the Golden States
rich Owens Valley.
The first thought of many of the
blacked-out farmers and rancherS, as
they groped for candles and oil lamps,
was that their electricity had been
shut off suddenly because of a raid
by suicidal Jap airmen.
Telephone calls to air raid head
quarters speedily exploded this the
ory. No suspicious planes had been
heard in the vicinity and no biackout
had been ordered. The power sta
tionS reported themselves undam-
aged Some folks then wondered If
NaZi saboteurs had cut the power
lines. Linesmen found il was sabo-
tage but of strictly local variety
Following the tine OF transmission
poles along the top Of Lone Pine
Mountain, above the valley, the re-
pairmen soon found the seat Of the
trouble. The -ptaCe-Has- all lighted
up by a brush fire that had been
started by fallen wires torn from
their fastenings on nearby pole
At the foot of the pole lay the
burned bodies of the culprits who
had blacked out the valley-two tat
tered wildcats, both male and-both
knocked out by bolts of electricity
Somewhere on the ground their
spat had started. Then the battling
pair had clawed their way up the
pole, fighting every foot of the way,
and had squared off on a wire-sup-
porting cross-arm for the last-and
fatal-round.
1.-The DANCED cats swarmed out
on the high-voltage lines and their
sharp claws ripped off a lot of in
sulation and broke several wires" one
linesman reported. Their bodies
formed a contact arc on those eX-
posed live wires and $4,000 volts shot

through the cats, cooking them TO a
crisp and knocking tn m to the
ground Some of the fallen wires
started the brush fire"
This factual account left a lot un-
said, in the opinion of some observ-
ers. Ordinarily a cat fight is of, in
terest only to the participants. But
in view of the widespread inconven-
ience resulting from this set-to, many

SPECIFIC TRANSPORT JOBS
REQUIRE RIGHT KINDS OF CARS

number Of the railways box cars are
of plywood-steel construction. Light
and rugged, these cars are tiptop for
grain, finished lumber, and many
other kinds of freight.
Another special breed" of rolling
stock Is Great AeFthefn.s 7755-teh-ea-
pacity iron ore car. Thousands of
these husky, hopper type cars are
required for the railways movement
of ore from the Minnesota range TO
Lake Superior vessels.
For safe transportation of tremen-
dous quantities of perishable foods
from and to its territory Great North
ern provides a fleet of modern refrig-
orator cars.
Great Northern's freight fleet also
includes livestock cars, fat cars, gon-
dolas and ,hoppers-the right kind of
equipment for every kind of trans
port requirement.
Having the right car for every job
is one of the many things which make
Great Northern great.

many years, the boards of trustees
of the Wilberforce University Cor

A.M.E. Church, and the College of
Education and Industrial Arts,
sponsored by the State of Ohio, met

agement of its president. The
Board of Trustees of the College of
Education and Industrial Arts met
on October 2 and the Board of
Trustees of the University Corpo-
ration met on October 8. Both
boards took affirmative action in
making the Joint Executive Com
mittee of six trustees, three trus-
tees elected from each board, as a
permanent trustee committee to in
sure the unity and cooperation of
the trustees in the future of devel-
opment Of the University. This
Committee was first agreed to in

Bishop R. P. Wright then president
of the University, with Bishop Rev.
erdy C. Ransom as chairman of the
University Board of Trustees and
Attorney Ray E. Hughes as chair
man of the State Board of Trustees.
The recommendation of a president
by this committee to both boards of
trustees and their joint selection of
the president was also provided.
These decisions bring to an end a
long period of division concerning
the administration of the Univer-
sity in which Church and state have
often found themselves on opposite
sides of the issue involving the Of
flee of president. The trustees
adopted set of Bylaws and Reg
ulations for Wilberforce University
which established definite educa-
tional procedures for the Univer-
sity.

TRADE UNION CONFERENCE
FOR PERMANENT FEp(
CONTINUED from page one)


Birth pointed out how important
this fight for permanent FEPC
is to American democracy and said
if this country doesn't learn the les
son of recognizing the rights of all
people with regard to race, creed,
color, national origin or ancestry it
will pay the price by witnessing the
rise of menacing and destructive
anti-democratic forces. Irving Sal
ert of the Jewish Labor Commit
tee commented on the necessity of
labor's watching this fight for
FEPC with great interest and care
so as to prevent efforts succeeding
that are initiated by selfish inter-
ests who would capitalize on the en-
thusiasm for a permanent FEPC to
advance the interest of organiza-
tions who are not remotely con-
cerned either with the welfare of
labor, or the Negro, Jew, Catholic,

Mexican, Japanese-American or any
one else.
A. Philip Randolph, of the Broth
erhood of Sleeping Car Porters and
Co-Chhirman of the NCPFEPC,
who called the conference spoke on
the obligation of labor to see this
fight for fair employment prac-
tice through to successful conclu-
sion. Mr.. Randolph said, that when
the boys who have been fighting and
dying in Europe for democracy re-
turn and find out they cannot get
a job to make living because they
might be Negroes, Catholics, Jews,
Mexicans, Japanese Americans,
they will rise up in revolt against
this condition and if the lid is blown
off the seething pot of racial resent
ment, it will not only damage racial
unity and social peace in our coun-
try but hold up America in the
world political spectrum as an in
ternational hypocrite whose pro-
fessions about democracy fall wide
of the mark of performance.
A Continuation Committee was
appointed to develop the program
among the trade unions to support
the National Council for a Perman-
ent FEPC in it's fight for the above
legislation.

BURIAL RITES ISs4
ON OKINAWA

OKINAWA = Marines who
searched Okinawa's sacred burial
vaults for hidden guns ans
ammunition learned of the burial
customs of the inhabitants Of this
island, according to Sgt. Harold
E. Foreman, Marine Corps COM
bat correspondent.
The Leathernecks saw how
food, writing paper, pen and ink,
writing board, clothing and
cables were placed on the lid OF
each plain. wooden coffin for
use of the dead. The vaults,
built into the sides of hills, are
approximately Is feet square and
nine feet high. The vault front IS
made of foot-thick concrete.
Relatives of the dead come to
the vaults every Sunday to wor-
ship, bringing picnic lunches
which they eat in front of the
burial grounds.
After an Okinawan dies, the
body is left in the coffin until
only the bones remain. Then the
bones are placed in a beautifully
colored Chinese urn and the en-
trance to the vault is sealed until
another death occurs.
Marines in the searching part
les were careful not to disturb
anything other than military
material.
