.Colored Midshipman
Abused, Powell Says
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Representative Powell, Democrat,
of New York has complained to
Secretary of the Navy Forrestal
that his 1945 colored nominee to the
Naval Academy sis not receiving
fair and equal treatment"
Mr.. Forrestal advised the colored
House member that he will ask the
academy superintendent for a COM
plete report.
Mr.. Powell issued statement
quoting the letter he wrote Mr.. For
restal as follows:
ut has been brought to my at
tention, through a most reliable
source, that my 1945 nominee to
the United States Naval Academy
(Midshipman Wesley A. Brown is
not receiving fair and equal treat
ment. I, therefore. wish to go on
record that I have written
you of this matter so that if any,
thing develops in the future, we
will have this as proof of the fact
that both of us were warned in ad-
vance.
"I have been told that "a con-
certed effort is being made to bring
about his dismissal-tha his papers
are being undergraded-an that he
is not being informed in advance
concerning offenses for which de-
merits are to be given I have re-
ceived no communication from this
young man which would indicate
that he has the slightest inkling of
such campaign and this infor-
nation comes from other sources.
ut is particularly important that
this be passed on for what it is
worth to the proper authorities In
charge Of our Naval Academy"
Mr.. Powell said the academy
never has had a Negro graduate,
but given a decent break, the
young man now attending the acad-
emy has an excellent chance of
being the first Negro to be gradu-
ated from this institution"

a portion of the estate which was
to go to the benefit of the National

Vile University after her death.
A copy of Mrs. Brandeis' will and
three codicils were received today at
District Court through registered
mail by Victor S. Mersch, register
Of wills. They were from Edward F.
McClennen, of Cambridge, Mass, an
executor of the estate.
A petition for probate of the will,
giving the value of the estate has not
been filed.
Mrs. Brandeis, who died October
IL at the age of 10, set up three trust
funds of 100000 each for her grand
children. The will also made other
bequests for her children and nu-
merous bequests to others. 1t named
daughter, Mrs. Elizabeth B.
Rauschenbush, Madison, Wis, to
receive real estate which had been
used as residence by Mrs. Brandeis.
1t also named Mrs. Rauschenbush
and another daughter, Mrs. Susan
B. Gilbert of New York, to receive
certain other benefits. Likewise, the
will provided sums ranging from
$4,000 to $4,000 for brother and
sisters.
A sum of $4,000 was bequeathed
to Hadassah, Inc, Women's Zionist

Americans Borricuded Selves
At HoteIin Venezuela Revolt

Still trembling and nervous, Mrs.
Davis fumbled in her purse-only
luggage she was able to salvage in
leaving Venezuela-and brought up
a battered steel fragment.
This came through the door of
our room. We piled a steel locker
against the door and showed the
rest of the furniture against the
windows. We spent two days fiat
on the floor We had few pieces
of stale bread for food-but we
couldn't have eaten it even If it
had been good"
Mrs. Davis said at least 20 per-
sons were killed during fighting
around the hotel garage.
Clark Brown, Allentown, Pa, busi-
nessman, said suddenness of the re-
volt caught Venezuelans and visitors
unaware
THE sound of gunfire was the
first indication of revolution" he
said. There had been unrest but
the outbreak was not expected so
soon"
The first bomb was dropped Fri
day morning from a formation of 10
planes" he recalled. They ap-
peared to be concentrating on the
police station and barracks where
government soldiers were en-
trenched."
Widespread Looting and Sacking.
Mr.. Brown and others among the
is persons who flew to Miami from
La Guaira said widespread looting
and sacking of homes of prominent
persons and liquor and jewelry
stores followed the outbreak.
He attributed the pillaging and
the deaths of many persons in Cara
Gas to irresponsible" who took up
arms and roamed the city in the
confusion of the revolt. ~
Mr.. Brown said estimates of the
dead in Venezuela as a result of the
revolution ranged from 1000 to g.
600 when we left Sunday morning. -
One man not 10 feet away from
me was killed by snipers as I came
out of the cable office in Caracas

MIAMI, Fla, Oct. 22.-While gun
fire spilled blood on the streets OF
Caracas, looters ransacked the city
and steel fragments caromed
through doors and windows, Amer
leans caught in the bloody revolu-
tionary coupe crouched in barricaded
hotel rooms through three days and
nights of terror.
That was the picture brought back
last night by refugees from the
Venezuelan revolt, first to arrive in
this country since violence f1ared in
the South American nation Thurs
day. 6
The noodlums and looters who
broke loose Friday were the worst,
said Miss Mary Francis, attorney
from Oklahoma City who, with
about 100 other Americans, "sweated
out" the revolution at the Avila Ho-
tel.
Il saw boys Is and 16 carrying
carbines-and they were a trigger
happy bunch" she related.
Police Force Wiped Out.
Miss Francis said the Caracas po-
lice force, which remained loyal to
the. government, apparently had
been wiped out.
Some capitulated finally and
came out with their hands up-but
they were shot down anyway" she
said.
A pilot herself. Miss Francis had
no compliments for bombing attacks
that punctuated the fighting.
Their flying was putrid,' she
commented. They dropped hand
grenades chiefly, but didn't appear
to be hitting anything important.
Bombing was too accurate at
Maracay, airport center just outside
Caracas, for Mrs. Madge Davis, who
admitted she cried through the
whole thing in a hotel room along
with two weeping American mothers
and their babies-who were crying
too"
"A bomb or grenade dropped from
plane hit the floor above us and
exploded" the Saluda, S. c., woman
said.
