Students Want Separation

St. Louis - If the study that James Morrison published in the October issue of The Negro is to be regarded as authentic, then white high school students in at least three large southeastern cl- ties, believe that Negroes are in- ferior.
 The figures indicated that 75 percent of the student feel that Negroes should be kept separate in the fields of transportation, so- cial affairs, schools, housing anc eating places.
 Only a mere 20 percent had ths feeling that Negroes are entitled to the same rights and privileges of all other human beings.
 On the other hand there was { group representing total of 2' percent who professed liking fo, certain Negroes. Which is not un like many white persons botl North and South who are very pro fuse in their love for individual in the group but do not feel tha the group generally should be ac cepted.

 Tn other centers the new chief policy of the Labor Department will be even more welcomed than in this area. One of the persons believed much responsible for the move of the Secretary is Boston's Thomasina w. Johnson, head of the Minorities Division of the La bor Department. Mrs. Johnson began a stiff fight almost on the day of her appointment a year ago to have all discriminations re- moved from the Labor Depart ment.
 The employment services are to be turned back to the states in November. For several years they have been under direct Fed eral control.

 REPUBLICANS
Tennessee Representative Chosen Successor 10
 Herbert BrowneII

WASHINGTON, April 2-Harold E. Stassen sounded a discordant note today in Republican praises for the COP. National Commit tees choice of Rep. Carroll Reece of Tennessee as the party's new chairman
 Stassen, who is almost avoWedly in the race for the 1948 presiden- tial nomination, declared it is we'll known that I do not approve of Chairman Reece's stand on many issues in the past"
 The former Minnesota governor's s statement left little doubt about his disappointment over the commit tees action in naming Reece, a close political associate of Senator Robert Taft and former Governor John w. Bricker of Ohio, over two other candidates. Reece succeeds Herbert E. Brownell, Jr., who re- signed to devote full time to his New York law practice.
 In his victory talk to the confi- dent party members, Reece asserted that a New Deal monopoly has been in charge with resulting "sec- ret9 and bureaucratic" government
 "As Republicans, we want labor and agriculture and the people gen orally to have their full rights" the new chairman said.

TIDAL WAVE
 DIDN'T HIT
 KODIAK AREA
Erroneous Report Sends Residents Slurrying to
 Snow Covered Hill

KODIAK, Alaska, April 2.-An erroneous radio report that a new tidal wave was only ten minutes away and the sounding of sirens last night shortly before midnight sent residents of Kodiak scurrying into snow-capped hills.
 The Navy radio corrected the re- port a few minutes later. and the people, some of them carrying bed ding. struggled back to their homes. The Commander of the Alaska Sea Frontier said no new wave was ex- pected to reach Alaska or Kodiak Island.
 The populace had been warned a recurrence of the tidal waves which yesterday swept up on island and Alaska beaches was possible. It was prearranged that a Navy broadcast and sirens would signal the danger if new wave approached Chiri- kof island. 80 miles southwest of Kodiak.
 When the alarms went off, cars and trucks loaded with passengers, some of them partly dressed child ren. headed up roads leading to Pillar Mountain. landmark on the west edge of the city.
 Kodiak people recalled their pre- sent city was built after the first Russian settlement further south on the island had been destroyed by tidal wave

Senate Adopts Conference
 Report Which Includes Sales Tax Feature
BULLETIN--The House, by vote of 22 to l, Gill voting no, accepted the free conference report on the Veterans measure this afternoon.

Finally reaching agreement after days of consultation on a dozer principal points of difference, the Free Conference Committee on the Veterans Bill reported to the All aska Senate last night.
 The Committees report was adopted by the Senate, by IA to vote, leaving the fate of the bill in the lap of the House as this special session of the 17th Alaska Legislature convened for the final day this morning.
 All three members of the Senate delegation concurred in the Free Conference report. Two House mem- bers concurred; one dissented. This split in the House group was indi- cated by the fact that the Senators won out on the major point at is- sue-inclusion of the sales tax as the specific means of financing the loan-bonus provisions of the Veter- ans Bill. House dissenter Amer J Peterson stated that his refusal tc concur was based upon inclusion of the sales tax.
 z Though Governor Ernest Gruen- ing publicly statts |. t..s. '. ;,s.s i,ss..ss the Vets bill is a splendid piece of legislation, nevertheless, passage of the bill with the sales tax will be somewhat of a defeat for his policies, as the Governors Message to this extraordinary session was outspoken in opposition to a sales tax.
 AS reported back by the confer ence group, the revenue provision of the Veterans Bill is almost iden- tical with that which originally passed the Senate: including auto matic repeal when the amount set for the Veterans Revolving Fund is reached.
 That amount is one point of compromise reached by the confer ence. The original Senate figure was set at s3,000,OO0 The House added another half million dollars

EXPLANATION OF WAVE

PASADENA, Calf, April g. r Here's a seismologist's explanation of the tidal wave, from Dr. Charles F. Richter of California Institute of Technology.
 "The wave seemed somewhat out of proportion to the shock itself
 Apparently conditions of earth motion the locality, depth of water at the point of the shock and other factors caused an unduly heavy wave. which famed outward, pro- bably trave1ing as fast as 400 mh.p. in deep water"
 There were indications the earth quake, first registering here at 4:38 am. tPST) yesterday. may have had it's epicenter in the Aleu- tian deep which at places plumbs 15.o0o feet below the oceans sur face.
 pr. Richter added that such phenomena are not uncommon af ter submarine quakes and this par ticular one was only moderate in strength.
