BrOms Condemns
Dispatch Writer
On Senator BilbO

Wilbur Strong Broms, 2095 Lin
coin Ave, st. Paul, an official Of the
Communist Party, took strong issue
with Walter T. Ridder, st. Paul
Dispatch columnist, who advised
people outside Mississippi ITO keep
their mouth shut then maybe,
we'll get rid Of Bilbo."
Broms said: What goes on in
Congress of the United States is
the business Of every American!
When a Congressman, whether he
be Senator BilbO, Representative
Rankin or anyone else spews forth
the Nazi-Fascist poison Of a Hitler
then it certainly becomes the
concern of the people of the United
States. When the constitutional
rights Of American citizens are
trampled on whether they live in
Mississippi or not, it is the business
Of the rest Of the United States
to investigate lest those rights be
trampled on elsewhere"
St. Paul recorder., 1946-07-19

Major Henriette Horak, public
relations officer for the WAC, said
the War Department could not send
Negro Waes to either theater un-
less requested TO do so by the
theater commanders. Thus far,
she said, all requests for Wacs
coming from the two theaters have
specified white Wacs only.
Asked whether she considered
this discrimination, Major Horak
said she did not think II was. II
Is simply a matter Of choice, she
added.
When first asked TO explain why
no Negro Waes were included
among the 1000 soon to be shipped
10 both theaters Major Horak said:
"We have so few left In this
country that most Of them that are
left are eligible for discharge"
She then was asked what would
happen IL a Negro Wac who was
eligible for discharge volunteered
70 60 overseas. .
"We are not recruiting colored
Wacs at present." she said, but
II any Of them wish to reenter the
corps they can. but they will not
be sent overseas because the
theater commanders have not re-
quested any"
Mrs. Irene +. Scott, In the Of
Zee Of Colonel Westray Battle
Boyce, Wac director, who stated
that she handled public relations
for the Wac colonel, volunteered
TO explain that Negro Wacs were
excluded from overseas assign
ment because there we're no
housing facilities available for
them.
The War Department announced
last Thursday that 1000 Wacs will
be shipped overseas during the next
four months for duty in the Euro
pean and Pacific theaters and with
the Caribbean Defense Command.

Pan American Union
Bars Any Intervention
In Internal Affairs

A proposal apparently dealing the
death blow to Uruguayan sugges-
ton that the American Republics
consider collective intervention In
the affairs Of any one of them not
living up to its Good Neighbor obli-
cations had the approval of the Pan
American Union Governing Board
today.
The board accepted unanimously
late yesterday and referred to the
2l American governments for their
observations and comments pro-
posed declaration including this
statement:
Intervention by any one or more
States, directly or indirectly. and
for whatever reason, in the internal
or external affairs of another State
is inadmissible.
Uruguay. in a proposal obviously
aimed at Argentina, had suggested
adoption last year of the principle OF
"multi-latersl, collective interven-
ton to protect the essential human
rights and to insure fulfillment OF q
nations international obligations
Secretary of State Byrnes had
approved the idea, but IL Latin
American nations rejected it.
| The proposed strengthened re-
affirmation of the nonintervention
principle was contained in a dec
laration of the rights and duties OF
American states" prepared by an
eight-nation committee of the Pan
American Union for ultimate ac-
ton by an inter-American confer
ence scheduled to be held in Bogota
Columbia, sometime next year.
