TlOlll THOU dkC.J
friends have made these points
clear.
For personal reasons. there may
be couple of cabinet changes-but
this possibility was recognized be-
fore the election.
The President, according to inti-
mates, has no intention of depart
ing from the accepted order of Gov
ernment operation despite Tues
days reverse. His attitude was re-
fiected by the comment In one
quarter that the country has under.
gone periods of divided control be-
fore, and still has managed to sur
vive.
S150,000 Fund Proposed.
In the meantime, the suggestion"
by Senator Fulbright, Democrat,
Arkansas, that President Truman
name a Republican Secretary of
State, and then resign in his favor,
continued to provoke comment, and
an Arkansas osteopath, DIR. w. B.
Farris of Fort Smith, suggested that
10000 persons contribute 81 each
to a fund which would enable Mr..
Truman to quit without financial
loss.
Senator Johnston, Democrat. South
Carolina, said that the Fulbright
plan "is the English way of doing
things" and referred to the fact
that his colleague had studied at
Oxford.
The South Carolinian said he
believed that after two years of Re-
publican congressional rule people
will be ready for another change"
Senator Bilbo, Democrat. of Mis-
sissippi, termed the suggestion
"asinine" and his fellow Mississip-
plan, Representative Rankin. dis
missed it with ridiculous"
Editorial comment was divided,
but for the most part, the press
saw little or no merit to the plan,
and no chance of it going through.
Fulbright Suggests Amendment.
The Kansas City Star, published
in Mr.. Truman's home community
said: "Of course, Mr.. Truman is not
going to resign the presidency, or
step aside. Such suggestions are
silly.
Whatever faults or failings the
Missourian may have. he doesn't
run from duty or what he eonceives
to be his duty"
Senator Fulbright told a news
conference here that he did not
propose to press his suggestion"
further, but that he did plan to
foster constitutional amendment
under which, il the situation seemed
to demand such action, Senate and
House by concurrent resolution
might call for a general election
involving not only the presidency,
but Congress also. All would serve
for the same term, possibly five or
SIX years, or until another election
was called.
He thought the privilege Of cali
ing an election would be used rarely
because of the natural dislike Of
Congress members to run for Office.
In addition to the cabinet the
President had only two other en-
gagements today, receiving Ambas-
sador Hume Wrong of Canada, who
came to present his credentials, and
Admiral Henry K. Hewitt, in charge
of operations in the Mediterranean.
Mr.. Ross said, however, that the
Presidents head cold which con-
fined him to the White House yes
terday was much better today.

Plan New 'Skegee
For Vets AT
B.T.W. Birthplace

ROCKY MOUNT, Va.-(ANP)
If plans of the Booker T. Wash
lngton Birthplace Memorial, Inc.
are carried out, new Tuskegee
institute for the benefit of re-
turned Negro soldiers will be es-
tabllshed in Franklin County, Va,
as a part of the memorial to the
distinguished educator and race
leader.
Members of the board were in
Richmond last week to confer with
Gov. William Tuck on the prof.
ect. They outlined their plans at
a conference at the state capital
on June 7. Spokesman of the
group was S. j. Phillips, of Rocky
Mount, chairman of the board.
The Virginia General Assembly
appropriated $4,000 to the me-
mortal last winter. The vocation
al training school would be pat
termed after Tuskegee and would
provide an opportunity for the
development of the educational
ideas of the Tuskegee founder on
the plantation where he was born
as a slave.
The Booker 7. Washington
quartet, which is assisting in the
Embarrassing campaign for the me-
mortal, sang at the conference.
The group will appear in various
sections of the state in the finan.
cial drive.

Guiding many women, have been
employed to meet the demand.
More than 5000 cases OF distilled
spirits are being turned out daily
for shipment and in a short time
it is estimated that one distiller
alone will be turning out 1000 ca
ses thus bringing an unprecedent-
ed amount of revenue to the
island treasures.
PUBLIC WORKS
In addition work will begin
during the next three weeks on
the $l0,000,000 public works pro-
gram which should absorb all the
unemployed on the islands.
So optimistic is the legislature
that the chairman of it's finance
committee announced that the
municipal council of st. Thomas
and st. John will receive it's re-
port on the budget for the next
fiscal year with expenditures of
$97O,O00 recommended.
During the next few weeks Gov.
HASTE is expected to map the pro-
gram which he will put into op-
Grafton for the advancement OF
the islands under his leadership.

ATLANTA, GA.,-(SNS)-
The off1cs OF District Attorney M
Neil Andrews is investigating nu-
merous complaints that in several
counties both white and Negro
people are being refused the right
to register for voting in the state
Democratic primary Of July IL.
Mr.. Andrews also reported that
further complaints are being re-
ceived that whites and Negroes
are being arbitrarily purged from
the list of qualified voters.
From Rome, meanwhile, came
word Monday that petitions chal-
longing the right of $50 Negroes to
vote July II were filed with Floyd
County Board of Registrars by
Vaughn Terrell, solicitor of the
Floyd City Court.
The solicitor was quoted as say
ing he would file $50 similar chal-
lenges daily until the total of some
1900 Negro registrants in Floyd
have been challenged. He further
declared his intention of checking
criminal records there ''for SO years
back" and of asking the registrars
to strike from the lists the name
of any Negro who has been con-
victed of a felony or a crime in
volving moral turpitude.
District Attorney Andrews said
he had received no official notifi-
cation of Mr.. Terrell's action, al
though Floyd County Is In Mr.. An
dreWs' district.
A prepared statement by Mr..
Andrews said partially:
1T is my duty to investigate all
complaints reaching this Office that
charge an illegal denial of the
right of citizen to register or to
vote and in proper cases to bring
criminal action against those who
deny or attempt to deny the law
full exercise of the right to vote.
In Sumter County, meanwhile, a
group of Negroes was planning
civil action in the courts against
the Board Of Registrars there,
charging that some 600 of their
race had been stricken from the
list in that county.
Middle Georgia District Attorney
John P Cowart revealed in Macon,
Saturday that his Office investi-
eating similar complaints in that
section.

we've got to change ends with
this thing, and instead of having
465 girls in the graduating class,
we must have a graduating class
with 465 boys and one girl and
then we would begin to begin get
ting somewhere. Course this
whole thing comes back to the
fact that from the beginning of
freedom our women have been al
lowed to assume responsibility for
all the family influences and they
decided at once. Soon as that
boy finished the public school or
gets to the fifth grade he's going
to work and help send his sisters
to the college. AS result the
sisters come out all diked up in
education and culture but have to
go to the poolrooms, the bell hops,
and the porters to get a husband.
. Yes, the way we're looking
at education now . the women
don't get no husbands and the
race don't get no men ;. and the
way we can change the thing
around is for more preachers to
preach more times the kind of

While the governor did not in

the islands facing a brighter out
look than they have faced in

rum industry here has awakened
to find itself enjoying an unexpect

ShipYdrd Jurisdictiondl
Procedure Established

Chicago {FP) - In move to
simplify settlement of jurisdiction
al disputes among shipyard work
ers of various crafts, the AFL
Metal Trades Department during
its preconvention session here
adopted 7-point program of pro-
cedure in such disputes.
The program, proposed by De-
partment President John P. Frey,
provides first for a conference be-
tween local representatives and
thereafter for international union
presidents to assign representa-
tives to participate in discussions
if the initial talks fail to produce
a settlement. If that fails to solve
the conflict within 96 hours, a
referee will be chosen to hear the
facts.
Frey is directed under the form
ula to notify all employees sig
natory to the master agreement
and to ask them not to transfer
work from one craft to another
without the complete agreement of
the other crafts involved.
Delegates reelected Frey presi-
dent of the department along with
Secretary Treasurer James A.
Brownlow. The following vice
presidents were chosen: Roy Horn,
Chicago; Ray Kelsay, Cincinnati;
Charles MacGowan, Kansas City;
George @. Lynch, Washington;
and Daniel w. Tracy, Washington.
Lynch stepped up to the forth
vice presidency because of the de-
feat of President Ed J. Brown of
the international Brotherhood of
Electrical Workers. Tracy, incom-
ing IBEW president, succeeds him.
Both AFL President William
Green and Secretary-Treasurer
George Meany addressed III e
Building & Construction Trades
Department convention on the is
sue of communism.
Green predicted the red issue
The potters herald. [volume] (East Liverpool, Ohio) 1899-1982, 1946-10-17

would split the CIO. 81 predict that
this issue is going to split them
asunder and predict that many of
them who are tired of communism
and foreign domination are going
to turn their faces homeward," he
told the building trades delegates.
Meany charged that the Soviet
Union is more of a threat to the
U. S. now than Hitler was in 1888.
The department, representing
~ million workers, unanimously
elected Richard j. Gray of Wash
ington as president. He had served
as chairman of its board since the
death of President John P. Coyne
in 1913.
Other officers chosen unamious-
ly were: Secretary-Treasurer Her
bert Rivers and the following vice
presidents by seniority: l.. P. Lin
delof, William j. McSorley, Daniel
w. Tracy and Martin P. Durkin.

ers in a shop must vote for a
strike was based on the belief
that "the crafts would be put at
a disadvantage"
Taking up the question of union
responsibility, which he said he
had not seen intelligently discus
sed anywhere, p dway said:
"There should be union response
bility but union responsibility is
not union liability. In England no
union can be sued for damages and
it's officers cannot be sued.
'The union is not the principal.
1t is the agent of the workers." he
declared.
Padway hit at the Hobbs bill
and the Norton anti-labor meausre
which was knocked out in the
house to open way for passage of
the notorious Case bill. He blamed
President Truman for the Norton
measure, claiming that upon fail
ure of the labor management con-
ference to accomplish all its aims,
Truman was, or rather was told
he should be, dissatisfied.
"He was induced to sponsor the
Norton bill by college professors
who wanted factfinding boards. He
claimed there was nothing harmful
to labor in such boards, or in the
30-day cooling off period.
"But / say what is the difference
between compulsory work whether
it is 30 days, 80 hours or so min
utes. 1t still is involuntary servi-
tude.

Padway closed with a warning
that labor must remain on guard
because of the certainty that the
anti-labor drive and the moves to
revive the old Conspiracy" doc
-rine would be renewed.

Stage Show At
Ceramic, Oct. rs

AS announced in an advertise
ment appearing in this weeks
Herald, Life With Father, re-
cord-breaking comedy will be act
ed on the stage of the Ceramic
Theater Friday evening, Oct. 25.
Although it is only seven years
old "Life With Father" is already
considered the great American
comedy classic. Such a description
is an honest tribute to its authen-
tic portrait of family life in the
United States in all it's warmth,
humanity, fun and tenderness.
1t is true that the "joys of
home" as depicted in this play are
those of another day, specifically
the 1880's. But SO universal and
timeless are the characteristics of
Clarence Day and his family as
portrayed in "Life With Father"
that audiences come away from a
performance remarking on the hu-
'morous similarities between what
they have just seen on the stage
and what goes on in their own
homes.
