City To Place Penalty On
Rat Control ViOIutOrs Here

bage, rubbish or refuse in a place
which affords a breeding place.
All food in the city for poultry,
horses, dogs and other animals must
be stored in ratproof and rat-free
containers, the ordinance says.
The new law will require Dayton
residents to keep tight gar
bage cans with tight-fitting lids.
Garbage must be kept in galvanized
or other non-rusting containers and
be of sturdy construction. The cans
must have proper handles.
The daily bulletin. [volume] (Dayton, Ohio) 1942-1946, 1946-04-03

Edward Stoecklein, city welfare
director, said yesterday his depart
ment would crack down on street
market vendors when Dayton's rat
control ordinance is passed next
Wednesday.
Stoecklein accused street ven
dors of throwing waste vegetables
and garbage into streets instead of
placing it in proper containers. This
waste provides breeding places for
rats, he said.
The rat control ordinance will re-
ceive first reading tonight at the
regular city commission meeting. 1t
provides a maximum penalty of $45
for persons violating the ordinance.
Under the rat control measure, all
buildings to be used for storage of
any materials in which rats may
harbor, must be made rodent-proof
Also it will be unlawful to leave gar.

CHICAGO, Apr. 8 (ANP)-
Acting Capt. Harry B. Deas of
Stanton Avenue Police Station be-
came the second Negro police Off
Ger in the history Of the Chicago

July /, 1888, and lieutenant on
Feb. 5, 1913, and took over Capt.
SCOTS job when he retired a few
months later. His promotion fills a
vacancy created recently by the re-
tirement of Capt. John E. Egan of

TEST CASE REHEARlhG
lis DENIED

The court of appeals yesterday
denied an application for rehearing
on test case involving the city's
right to collect union dues from
municipal employees affiliated with
the Dayton Public Service union.
In the declaratory judgment, the
court held that deductions of union
dues a sprovided (now) is valid and
legal pracice or procedure"
The suit, filed by Earl Hagerman,
city finance director, against the
city of Dayton and the union, in
wolves two city ordinances.
The first ordinance allowed the
cit yto absorb the cost of collecting
union dues. Common Pleas Judge
Robert U. Martin ruled that since
the deductions were made "for the
private convenience and benefit of
the union," the city could not bear
the cost.
AS result of Judge Martins de-
cision, a second ordinance was
passed. Both ordinances permit
Hagerman to collect dues and the
second permitted withholding of s
per cent to defray the cost of max
ing the deductions.
Hagerman then took the case to
the court of appeals: In a decision
written by Appeals Judge Roscoe
G.. Hornbeck, the present system
was upheld.
The courts latest finding said it
will not decide on the merits of the
frs ordinance now hat the second
ordinance has been passed.
Hagerman took exception to the
courts ruling. It is expected the
case will be aiken to the state su-
preme cour.

RUM0R ENGLAND
OPPOSES HASTE

WASHINGTON, Apr. 3 (ANP)
Informed sources in the capital
say that the British governments
opposition to the HASTE nomina-
ton is causing all the furore the
hearings have aroused.
Fearful that the colonies and de-
Tendencies of the British in the
Caribbean will demand Negro gov
ernors and members of the coun-
ellis, considerable fear is said to
have been expressed over the Hast
lie confirmation.
international implications may
we'll ensue if HASTE is confirmed,
yet internal dissention is inevitable
if the confirmation is rejected.
The administration is between
the devil and the deep blue sea. OPP
position abroad and opposition at
home make the Hastie appointment
another hot potato for the Gin" The
failure of the Democrats to enact
a fair employment practice act
leaves them with no alternative but
to confirm the HASTE nomination
if they do not wish the wholesale
desertions of the Negro voters.
This they can't we'll afford, what
with the strife that pertains in
their party. Critics flaying criti-
cizers of the party who want non
administration supporters purged,
say the purgees are the real back
bone of the party.
These make confirmations in the
senate difficult. This old line Demo
cratic group has never fully ac-
quiesced to the presence of Negroes
in what they like to regard as a
white mans party" And this is an
opportunity to repudiate the Negro
Democrat and establish even more
firmly the caste and color line be-
liefs of the southerners who are in
jecting "racial issues" into the pic
ture.

FIGHT Renewed To Gust Carter Glass

WASHINGTON, Apr. 8 (ANP)
Carter Glass, Virginia's senior
senator, who has not answered
roll call for over three years, was
again the target Of attack by John
Locke Green, Republican treasurer
of Arlington county, Va, for fail
ure to give up his seat in the Sen
ate. Green offered a resolution
when the Republican State Execu-
tive Committee meets in Richmond,
Va, requesting a constitutional
amendment prohibiting U. S. sena-
tors from serving after they reach
70.
Mr.. Green Waged an unsuccess-
full court fight last year to have
Sen. Glass ousted from the senate.
The 88-year-old senator has long
been considered an enemy of pro-
gressive legislation in his own state
and in congress. He had leading
part in the 1902 Virginia Constitu-
tional Convention which led to the
disfranchisement of Negroes. !
Since that time many Virginia
Negroes have regarded Mr.. Glass
as stumbling block to legislation
in Virginia and the nations capital
in their behalf. Only in recent years
have few progressive whites john
ed the opposition to the senator who
has enjoyed much power and in
fluence in congress.
The United State Supreme Court
in dismissing Mr.. Green's custer
proceedings against Mr. Glass is
leaving action on his case up to the
senate. Political leaders here, how
ever, doubt that the senate will take
any decisive action in the matter be-
cause of the policy Of that body to
abide by the wishes of the compan-
ionate senator from the state of the
member involved in any such case.
Mr.. Green's petition to the SUI
preme court of appeals for a writ of
mandamus requiring the Virginia
governor to call an election for Sen.
Glass seat was rejected. When the
case was appealed to the United
States Supreme Court it declined
on last Jan. 2 to review the decision
of the lower court.

Headquarters Gets APP

The New Hanover county Red
Gross was last night awaiting Of
fetal confirmation of an announce
ment from Atlanta that the ma
tional Red Cross had approved

PROGRESS MADE

PROGRESS MADE - Recent
years have seen many inventions
which have taken many of the
hazards from navigation. Still
mans struggle against the sea
continues.
Old timers here can still recall
many a story Of the sea and ships
that would require a Richard
Henry Dana, a oseph Conrad, or
Jack London to do justice to it.
The toilers of the sea, as one To-
cal chronicler calls them, often
won their livelihood at the risk OF
their lives.
Before the introduction of the
system now used by the Cape Fear
Pilots Association, the pilotage
business was one often filled with
danger.
REAL RACE - There were APP
proximately go licensed men who
earned their living as pilots here
in the Port City back in the 1905.
For one of these men to 60 as far
100 miles Of fthe coast in search
of vessels in need of their assist
ance was nothing unusual.
But let the words of Colonel Wad-
dell .reten the tale as he first did
in 1877:

Along The Cape Fear

SEA TRAGEDY The sinking
of the schooner Tondelayo off the
coast of Georgia this week was
the second sea tragedy closely as
ISOLATED with the Port City in a
relatively short period of time.
The explosion aboard the tanker
Bennington off the Carolina coast
claiming seven lives is still fresh
in the minds of many of u.s..
One of the blast victims aboard
the Bennington was brought here
for medical treatment after the
tanker. anchored at Southport, our
neighboring port.
The saga of the Tondelayo strikes
home here SO forcefully because
for several days the vessel and her
crew remained at Wrightsville
Sound.
Many a heart beat faster upon
learning of the voyage contemplate
ed by the Pondelayo. A cruise to
the South Pacific was enough to
fire the imagination of any youth
who yearns for the sea. Many a
land-locked sailor felt that to ship
on such a voyage would be the
answer to his fondest prayers.
Sea tragedies fail to dampen the
ardor Of those who really love the
sea, hence there will be many
more voyages, just as romantic as
