.STRAFIN6 OF U. S. TEAM
 GIVEN EXPLANATION

PEIPING, Sept. 12.-TThe Ameri- can chairman of Cease-Fire Team No. Il which was strafed by Chin csc Government planes said to- night that his group was arrested by Communists in Chengteh and forced to leave the city under Communist guard along with evacuating troops Aug. 31.
 As the team travelled over a tor tuous route, it was strafed by two government planes and one Ameri- can, T-5 Thomas Haugen of Deni- son, Tex, was wounded. The sur vivors reached here yesterday.
 Col. R. J. Rustemeyer of Leaven- worth, Kas., who headed the team, told in an interview today of the groups experiences. He said that his jeep had a large American flag flying from the radiator and that two druce) flags were flying from the rear trailer.
 Although not specifically saying so he indicated that the attacking planes had no way of telling that the group was a Cease-Fire team.
 Throughout most of the journey from Chengteh, capital of Jehol Province, the team travelled with retreating Communist troops At the time of the strafing, however, there were only about 10 Commun- ist soldiers around, Rustemeyer said.
 A Communist team member, Wang Hsiao-tien, also interviewed, declared that 10th Rustemeyer was grossly mistaken" He admitted that Rustemeyer had protested but ssid tl'c team asked to leave for it's c1n safety.

 The Connecticut Inter-racial Commission has received, alto- gether, 165 complaints of which 1O4 wree satisfactorily adjusted II could not be substantiated by the complainant, Al could not be adjusted because of the attitude of one or the other of the parties, and 9 are still pend ing.
 As result in part, at least, of the educational and concilia- tory services of the Connecticut Inter-racial Commission, it can be noted that friction involving the use of public carriers and public accommodations has de- creased since the war days. The tension was mostly in urban centers, and all cases reported were conflicts between Negro and white passengers.
 During the three years of its existence the commission staff has grown from one member to seven, with two as consultants. This increase has been made ne cessary by the requests that have come to the Commission for use of its new department of visual aids, the service of the educational consultants, the making of community surveys, the settling of complaints, and the efforts to incraese employ ment opportunities for all per- ons regardless of race, religion, or national origin.
 Considerable advances have been made by Negroes in many professions and occupations, al- though the number of teachers has dropper. The apparent re- duction in the number of Ne gro ministers is probably due to the difference in definition. The 1946 estimate includes only ordained ministers of recog- nized churches.

racial Commission, is the ap- pointment of a Negro to super wise the training of all social workers in the State Public Welfare department.
 The Inter-racial Commission, cooperating with employers and other organizations, has assist ed directly in, the placement of many Negroes in responsible positions. The results of these efforts can be seen in the in- creased use of Negroes as office worker, retail clerks, and skill led workers in manufacturing plants.
 In 1940 there were only 16 Negro stenographers, typists and secretaries employed in the entire state, and most of them were employed in Negro estab- lishments that dealt exclusively with Negro trade. Today, VI Negroes are employed in many kinds of offices.
 There were no Negro sales clerks in major department stores in 1943, but there are now thirty-nine Negroes em- ployed in sales anl clerical posi- tions.
 In the manufacturing field, Negroes are now employed in many positions of skill. Firms have reported Negroes serving as engineers, metallurgists, chemists, supervisors over whites and negroes, machinists, instructors, office clerks, and machine operators.
 Opportunities for education have also been increased for mi nority groups. In 1943, for ex- ample, there were no Negroes in any school of nursing in Connecticut except at Yale Uni versity. Negroes are now train ing as nurses at St. Francis Hospital, Hartford; St. Raph- ael's Hospital, and the Yale School of Nursing in New Ha- ven and the University of Con- necticut at Storrs. There are only five among the 19 nursing schools which have not express ed willingness to accept quail fled applicants without regard to rcae, religion, or national origin.
 The Commission maintains close contact with civic leaders, manufacturers, news paper deitors, and, as far as possible, the general public of Connecticut.
 It has conducted 21 surveys to determine the extent of ra- cial tension and to suggest ways of relieving this tension in Con necticut communities.
 It has held or promoted over 5000 conferences with employ IS, civic leaders, union officials, and teachers.
 It has distributed approxi- 100000 pieces of inter group literature and has parti- cipated in PIP programs of oth- CT groups.

DAUGHTERS, CHARTER LODGE OF ELKS 59 Canton Street, Hartford, Conn. Dear Ladies:

I was one of those fortunate enough to be chosen as a guest at the Thanksgiving Dinner for mothers, at your Lodge, Satur- day, November 23.
 To say that the Dinner or the entire affair was 1ovey, would be putting it mildly. As the younger folk would say, it was scrumptious, really in there.'' The Daughters were not simply pleasant waitresses, but were gracious and gay host esses, and made the occahion more than a free meal or a gesture of charity so often dis. played by organizations of simi- lar positions. Their charming manner tugged at my heaeA, mant consciousness within, and string, aroused an almost dor made one feel that someone really cared. For when you have reached and passed the 50 year mark, it is not easy to look upon your children, whom you owe with the same tender ness you held for them when they were infants, and know that many of them have for gotten your struggles to provide for them 1t is not easy to face the fact that many of them do not seem to know that you even exist. It is not easy to surrender to the thought that your only companion is our good Lord, that you have only him, to walk and talk with, that he only cares
 Perhaps, our children love us dearly, perhaps, it is only that they are now independent and strong, perhaps, they feel that we have done our share and now they must stand on their own feet. But, we Mothers like to feel that they cannot do without us, that they must lean upon us. So we beg them 'sLeave us one little thread to-. tie us to them"
 Looking about Saturday, and listening to the gay chatter and quiet laughter of Mother Thorn ton and others, I knew that many of us had not enjoyed ourselves so much, or laughed so easily, or relaxed so complete ly, in many a day. I am posi- tive that every mother there is grateful for that afternoon of joy and contentment, is proud to have you Daughters as friends, is thankful for an oc- casion to refresh our hearts and memories to the many things we have truly to be thankful for.
 If at any time, in my meager way may be of the slightest service to any or all of you, please do not hesitate to call upon me. I shall deem it a great pleasure and a still great CT honor.
 May God bless you and keep
