agement in the Piqua Call, local
daily newspaper, the strikers,
members of Local 827, UAW-
CIO, stated their determination
to hold their lines and remain
out as long as necessary, until
the company granted them wage
increases.
Union members heard Richard
Gosser, UAW-CIO regional di-
rector, Toledo, call upon the
company to step up to its re-
sponsibility to the community
and grant wage increases the
same as other industries
throughout the country.
Harold Tull, International un-
ion representative was praised
by Mr.. Gosser for seeking to
reach a settlement with the
company, while members of the
union were given credit for
conducting an orderly n d
peaceful strike.

DAVENPORT, Iowa (LPA)-
Churchmen here bought ad-
space in a local daily to affirm
their united support of striking
workers demands for a living
wage. About $500 strikers in
the Quad Cities, some of them
picketing the Int'l Harvester
plant, were heartened by the
joint statement, by pastors of
Protestant Episcopal, Presbyte-
rian, Baptist, Catholic, Hebrew
and Christian churches, which
read:
1--WE are interested in the well
fare of the people Low
wages and high cost of living
mean suffering, deprivation and
misery We are convinced
that prosperity can exist only if
a high purchasing power And
full employment at living wages
are maintained"

However, the danger that
some kind of anti-labor legis-
lation may go through Con-
gress still existed, and labor
chiefs are not letting down their
guards in the fight against such
legislation.
An indication of what lies
ahead was given by Sen. Wayne
L. Morse (R. Ore.). He predicted
the defeat of the Case bill, but
pointed out that wha tev ver

lation does reach the floor of

AAU jim CROW SET
BACK IN COURT

WASHINGTON, Mar. 4 (ANP)
Justice Matthew F. McGuire's
decision against the case of five
Negro boxers, in which the justice
ruled against their suit of the
Amateur Athletic union, was over
ruled here when the court of ap-
peals handed down a decision up
holding the right of the young men
to sue the AAU.
Justices Bennett Champ Clark,
Wilbur K. Miller and E. Barrett
Prettyman rendered the new de-
cision.
The decision intimated that dis
trict AAU through that groups
registration committee had wrong
ly barred five amateurs from COM
peting in district-wide national and
international championships and
had violated the bylaws and con-

bishop said. He described the soil
as rich awaiting only skilled farm
hands to use it to full capacity.
The infant mortality is much
higher" than in temperate zones, ne
said, and declared that improved
medical facilities will change this.
Medical work, formerly largely
supported by the church, needs ex-
pansion to meet the unusual prob
lens of tropical country, Bishop
Harris concluded.
President William V. S. Tubman,
born in Liberia of American parents
has expressed the desire of the LII
berian people for friendlier rela-
even the native nurses had to be re-
educated to view it's symptoms and
tions and responded in increasing
tions with American Negroes, Bish-
op Harris said.

Negro holding the rank of bishop in
the Episcopal church, paid tribute
to Liberia for it's preservation of
freedom and republic status.
bishop Harris announced plans
to remain in the United States for
two months to give a favorable
picture of the liberian people to their
friends in America" A resident of
the country since last October, the
bishop refuted the "top-hat, TOM
tom" impressions of Liberia, and de-
clared that the country is constantly
seeking improvement.
That the country needs aid from
outside sources is obvious, Bishop
Harris feels. The Liberian Public
Health service is functioning "ef-
ficiently" under two American Ne
gro brothers, Col. John West and
Maj. Charles West, he said. How
ever, the only hospital facilities in
Northwest Liberia must serve an
area of more than 250,000 inhabi-
tants, he reported. 1t is directed by
DR.. Frank Mears, a graduate of the
University of Pennsylvania. Miss
Ruth SaXton and Miss Lois Robin
son, of Bronxville, N. Y, became
directors of a girls school last Jan
uary.

stitution of both the national and
local unions.
A clause inserted in all contracts
drawn up for sanctioned" AAU
sports events was cited by the box
ers as contrary to the AAU regula-
tions. 1t reads: "The registration
committee of the District of Colum-
bia association of the Amateur
Athletic union does not sanction
mixed racial competition or exhi-
oitions in any sport under it's jur-
isdiction."
The boxers brought suit against
the AAU and it's registration COM
mittee in complaint against the
Battle of Belts" tournament con-
Quoted by the Washington Post and
the AAU last winter. The COM
plant was filed in March and
heard by Justice Mcclure in dis
trict court.
The court of appeals in overrul-
ing Mcclure invites a new trial on
the facts and evidence, adding.
"The D. C. AAU's contention,
implicit although not expressed,
that the constitution, bylaws and
regulations of the unions are no
part of the contract between the
boxers and the unions, is beside the
point and is also without merit.
Members in good standing whose
rights are invaded by an ultra wires
act of a committee of the organiza-
tion are clearly entitled to relief
and protection.
I'VE need not speculate as to
what proportion of their aver
ments the boxers need prove in or
der to support the relief which they
claim. On the record as it now
stands the only questions are
the complaint and the affi-
davit show that there are genuine
issues of material facts and wheth-
er the complaint, if proved as
averred, states a claim for which
relief can be granted. In our view,
the answers to both questions are
The five boxers are Willie Far
rail-, Edward w. Banks, H. D. Por-
ter, John Jones and Robert Elker-
son.

Etiquette

A director of a broadcasting
studio asks: when a radio an
nouncer introduces a speaker, is it
rude for the speaker to fail to say,
Thank you'?"
In my opinion, Thank you" never
should be said on regular program.
To have an announcer say, "You
now will hear Mr.. On-the-Air" and
then Mr.. On-the-Air say Thank
YOU Mr.. Talker" wastes seconds
of radio time. And when at the end
Mr.. Talker again says, Thank you
Mr.. On-the- Air this reiteration
becomes extremely tiresome.

is not an engagement ring and ]
never thought it could be mistaken
for one until I read In your column
recently. that it was not at all un-
usual for other stones as well as
diamonds to be set in an engage
ment ring. Does it seem out OF
place for me to wear this ring on
my left hand?
Answer-There is no rule against
wearing ring on the third finger
of your left hand-even if you
choose to wear a solitaire diamond
In other words, it can mean an
engagement ring or, on the other
hand. it can mean nothing!

Father Trouble
Bv AngeI0 Pafri

subject is mathematics and he said
I could be a minus 10 engineer,
having made 80 on the average in
math. That made me mad and I
said I wouldn't be an engineer. Now
we are both mad. Did you ever have
father trouble?"
mo" said. mot that kind. Let's
go out and have an ice cream cone
and go home. Forget all about 1t.
Give yourself and father time to cool
off. You can take the general course
for two years and by that time you'll
be showing something. Just now
you're neither a writer nor an
engineer. Just small boy trying
to grow up. Just put that to father
and think things will be all right.
What kind of ice cream?"
I'll have chocolate cherry syrup,
with walnuts, thanks. That's much
more though than cone? Yes, I'd
love double portion if I may. Gee,
this is good. I'll tell father that.
1t would be compromise, wouldn't
it? That would be all right. You
see he wouldn't have to give in and
1 wouldn't and we could stop being
mad"
Good idea, this compromise. 1t
takes small boys long time to see
way open toward maturity. Save
them any father trouble possible.
