INTERRA(IAL BUSINESS
ORGANIZATION APPOINTS
new EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

CHICAGO, Aug. IA (ANP)-
John Ragland, former Urban
league official and racial consul
tant of the Federal Security ag-
ency, was appointed recently as
executive director of the South
Central association, composed of
1000 local white and colored bust
ness men.
The new executive director has
already assumed his duties with
the interracial group that has con-
cerned itself with the problems of
100000 citizens of both races here.
Two of the five officers of the

In addition to these problems,
the Chicago Housing authority is
faced with the task Of finding liv-
ing space for 300 families who
must move out of 83 buildings near
9th and State street. The existing
buildings are to be torn down and
new war homes erected on the site.
It is proposed that trailers be
used to house these people and that
they be set up on vacant spots
throughout the South-side. How
ever only a very few of the de-
housed families will be eligible to
move into the new homes and would
have to stick to the trailers for a
long, long time.
It is to be regretted that there
is no organized effort among Ne
groes to enter into the housing
program in a big way. We only
protest and even our protests are
weak and lack volume.
A few Negroes who have money
are taking advantage of the sit
uation and doing all right for them
selves. Their usual effort consists
of leasing a htotel and charging
high daily rates, converting flat
building into kitchenettes for big
profits or opening a swell liquor
lounge or just an ordinary tavern.
Ill fares Chicago in the days that
be Immediately ahead. This win
ter will find many distressed peo-
pie as they continue to ''pack-up"
in these urban fox-holes and jeo-
pardize their health and morals.
Too, the situation will be aggra-
waited when lay-offs come and good
wages are no more.

Ragland's background includes
20 years of social service work
with Urban league offices in De-
troit, Louisville, Cincinnati and
Warren, Ohio. He also served four
years as racial consultant with

the Federal Security agency.
Chicago businessmen are set

will through mutual understanding
that may soon be adopted by other
cities throughout the 48 states"

WARN PROSPECTIVE
MIGRANTS TO SHUN CHICAGO
By Froyser T. Lane


CHICAGO, Aug. IA (ANP)-
The housing situation in Chicago
is critical and getting tighter all
the time. Negroes who plan to come
to Chicago to live might as well
change their minds. At this time
there is no immediate relief in
sight.
This is the view of specialists in
the housing field who testified at
a subcommittee meeting Of the
Mayors Commission on Race re-
lations which met Thursday at the
First National Bank building here.
Representing the National Hous-
ing agency, Clemmons Roark said,
"The picture is very dark. Only the
end of the japanese war will make
sufficient materials available for
more building. Interested persons
and organizations should urge con-
gress to pass the legislation which
it will have before it, making more
money available for more public
housing units"
Ed Kelly, director Of the region
al FHA here, said, Private build
ers have run into bottle-neck in
their ability to acquire land to
build homes to be occupied by Ne
groes. Private builders have al
ways had sufficient priorities for
material for Negro families. There
are some 600 priorities which have
not been used. Builders say that the
high cost and frequent unavaila-
bility of land and the $5,400 limit
on houses make building for Ne
groes unattractive from a profit
point of view."
Restrictive covenants are a fac
tor in the acquisition of land to
build for Negro families and added
to this is the unavaliability of ma
terials even when priorities are at
hand.
Meanwhile, existing housing be-
comes more crowded. Fires and
bad sanitation are forcing citizens
out of their present quarters and
service men are returning with no
place for their families to live.

Ships And Planes Bomb And Blast Helpless Japan

GUAM, July 18-(P)-Through smoke-spiraled shattered war plants in north Tokyo, Japan watched for the next blows to be loosed against the home islands by the combined might of American and British warships.
 Tokyo made no effort to conceal it's fears of a new bombardment by Adrimal Halsey's Third Fleet and it's companion British ships.
 Radio silence concealed their course since they broke off she'll ing Honshu's east coast at 12:05 am. today. In the sky Nipponese watched for a return of carrier based planes sent out by McCain'S prowling task force Thirty Eight.
 The Jap radio said new attacks has already come. London report ed hearing a broadcast that the Honshu east coast was bombarded fo ran hour at noon today by six teen Allied warships. Tokyo said American and British carriers sent five hundred planes back over the Tokyo area today and followed up yesterdays raid of fifteen hun dred carrier aircraft.
 The enemy admitted Jap help lessness by stating the Allied fleet is Liable to attack us at any chosen time or place." More than two thousand tons of explosives were showered on targets for twenty miles along the Honshu coast in midnight bombardment. The fleet went about the job lei

 Faces Perjury, Polygamy Charges

NEW YORK, July 18-tR)-U. s. Commissioner Garrett w. Cot ter today postponed until July twenty-fourth the removal pre- ceedings under which Alexander s. Fowlie, 50, is held in five hum dred dollars bail to face polygamy and perjury charges in Juneau, Alaska.
 Assistant U. s. Attorney Gerald V. Clark requested the postpone ment. Clark said Fowlie was charged with violation of Alaska Territorial laws rather than viola ton of Federal statutes. It prob- ably will be necessary to dismiss the federal complaint and have Fowlie rearrested by the U. s. Marshal now enroute from Alaska.

 The twenty-six billion, three hundred thirteen million Seventh War Loan has gone down in his- tory as the biggest financing op- eration of this or any other war.

Franco Says Spain Must Return To Monarchy

MADRID, July 18-Last night Franco proclaimed he was only acting as head of the Spanish gov ernment pending the return of a monarchy, and perpetuated Fal- ange ideals of the Nationalist Syndicalist State in a thirty-five minute speech to members of the Falange National Council.
 Franco said that Spain was en- tering the preparatory period to return to a monarchy, bu. didn't say when the changeover would be made. He declared the mon- archy must guarantee essentials" of the Falange movement.
 Franco's speech apparently con- stituted an offer to Don Juan, son of Alfonso the Thirteenth to ac. cept the throne. In Washington diplomats regarded Franco's state ment as a move designed to main- tain himself in power and at the same time ride out criticism of the Allied world, particularly Russia.
