hunting within five miles of

hunters we talked TO were hav-

of limit bags.
We had some very good re-
ports around Peck, but after

plunked down the chimney without
touching the sides.
Diamond, on Guadalcanal, drove

mortar by bracketing the sub with
shells SO well that its crew was
unable to come out of the coming

employees here under the so-called
merit system you can count the Ne

other than janitors. If the new

concerned.

The NAACP and other agencies
endeavored to secure enough sig
natures to help Atty. Johnson but
failed. Negro representation might
have changed results.
Opposition to the new consitu-
ton was backed by the leading Ne
gro newspapers in this area that
pointed out the weakness of the
provisions for protecting Negro
civil rights and equal economic op-
portunities. They remembered that
the U. S. Supreme court decision
in the Gaines case provided equal
educational opportunities for Ne
groes. Negro students are still

new MISSOURI CONSTITUTION
APPROVED, But NOT
BY NEGRO VOTERS

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Mar.
Z (ANP)-The new state constitu-
tion was approved here over the
votes of Negro citizens.
Election officials estimate that
a majority vote favoring adoption
of the new state document will ex-
ceed 100000. Tabulation of returns
from predominantly Negro wards,
however, revealed opposition to the
new constitution on the group that
it does not safeguard their civil
rights and economic opportunities.
ST. Louis county went on record
of opposing the new proposition.
The fifth, sixth, 18th and 10Th
wards, predominantly Negro,
showed a majority opposition vote
of 1852. On the other hand, how
ever, the fourth ward with a large
Negro majority voted approval of
the new constitution. Votes from
that ward showed adoption favored
by 480
Separate schools for white and
Negro students are provided for
in the new constitution except in
cases where the legislature may
provide for the two races to attend
the same school. Proponents argue
that in isolated instances where
there are few Negroes the white
schools may admit the Negroes if
the legislature gives them permis-
sion.
With regard to the so-called mer-
it system as it affects Negroes, we
doubt seriously if it will make any
difference. Negroes are now under

War Department Lauds
Negro GI's For Impossible
Feat, BUILDING 5tiIIweII Rd.

WASHINGTON, Mar. Z (ANP)
Recent completion of the "im-
possible feat of constructing Still
we'll road, on which Negro soldiers
toiled at their tasks behind the bat
tie lines, was lauded by the war
department as ''the greatest en-
gineering feat in the annals of the
U. S. Army"
Of the $4,000 soldiers who COM
pleted this job, some 65 percent
were Negroes. One of their num-
Der, Technician Richard Barnett
from York, S. c., in January drove
the first truck of the first convoy
over Stillwell road. The road ex-
tends from ports in India to the in
terror of China and was built
through jungle and mud.
Said the war department
"A detachment of Negro engin-
eers of the 823rd general service
engineer regiment, using British
and American equipment, began
work on the road at Ledo, near AS
sam, India, in December, 1912, and
when the first convoy from India
to China rolled over the completed
road 25 months later, a Negro,
T/5 Richard Barnett, of York, S.
c., was driving the lead vehicle"
Told that the job was impossible,
Brig. Gen. Lewis H. Pick, who ar
rived in India to take over the road
construction, told his staff:
''I've heard the same story all
the way from the states. It's always
the same-the Ledo road can't be
built. Too much mud, too much
mud, too much rain, too much ma
laria. From now on we're forget
ting this defeatist spirit. The Ledo
road is going to be built-mud and
rain and malaria be damned"
Aside from the jungles, mud and
malaria, all but AZ miles Of the
long road was in enemy territory
and the engineers are said to have
come in contact with Jap patrols
on frequent occasions, when they
were forced to exchange their con.
struction tools for guns and fight
until their way was clear.
The Negro outfit, the lead com
pany, is said to have had more thar
80 percent Of its members hospital
lied by malaria at one time. They
are reported to have encountered

Ickes announced this week.
There are 66 refineries in %
United Nations, excluding the
Soviet Union and the United States,
which processed 100000 barrels of
petroleum products daily in 1914.
Working under wartime difficult
ties unknown to the petroleum in
dustry of North America, the refin-
cries of our own nationals abroad
and those of our allies are contrib
uting their full share against the
common enemy, Administrator
Ickes added.
Throughout the war, the output
of the British refineries in the Mid
die East and elsewhere has been
drawn upon for war purposes to
the greatest extent possible within
the limits imposed by the shortage
of tankers and the refineries' ply.
steal capacity for turning out mil
itary products, the administrator
said
Earlier in the war, when Mediter
ranean travel was too dangerous.
the shortage of tankers and the
greater distances from the Persian
Gulf and even from the Caribbean
area to the fighting fronts, as COM
pared with the length of shipping
routes from the United States, pre-
vented the major foreign refineries
from making their maximum con-
tribution to the prosecution of the
war
Within the last two years, the
building up of the Allied tanker
fleets for direct war purposes and
the ever-mounting demands result
ing from the increasing tempo of
warfare have enabled the utilization
Of foreign crude production and re-
filming facilities virtually at maxi
mum capacity.
The few foreign refineries that
are not operating at maximum ca
pacity are those that are currently
undergoing repairs from damages
caused by bombing, that cannot be
supplied with sufficient quantities
of crude oil, or whose products can
not be moved because of the con.
tinued shortage of tanker transpor-
tation
The large seaboard refineries
have contributed the major share of
petroleum products from overseas
TO supply the direct military and
naval requirements of countries
aligned against the Axis.

Only One of Many

The public generally has but little conception of the
many problems attendant upon the production of crude OIL
Recently national prominence has been given the edc of
federal judge who declared that intangible drilling costs
including the costs of drilling dry holes could not properly
be charged off expense He did deny that such
actually total loss to the operator All he said
that ACCORDING TO EXISTING REVENUE LAWS such
costs could not be charged off as expense
Unless congress Immediately amends the law unless
this judge reversed by higher court the industry is
faced with virtual chaos.
This is only of the many problems confronting the
who produce the crude oil that powers the
effort.
Ever since the need for oil became acute, there has
been strange Discrimination the part of the powers
that be- to look the facts in the face and realize that ope
ators cannot be expected to produce oil at a loss
The real sufferer is the everyday motorist Increas-
ngy in the future he faces the prospect of being
without gasoline When Mr. Petrilo of the musicians
union elects to levy tribute musical recordings there
is effective action by the government in protest When
oil operator wants the price of oil raised to point that
will enable him to break his drilling costs the
is terrific
Something is decidedly wrong and the nation is not
going get the gasoline it needs until the public gets the
true picture
