.'U' President Opposes Use or Fort for Vets

Hartford, April 10.-(UP-CAov. Raymond E. Baldwin said yesterday that University of Connecticut President Albert N. Jorgensen was mot in favor of a proposal that the Fort Trumbul1 Officers School of the Maritime Service at New London be used to accommodate veteran students.
 U. s. Sen. Brien McMahon asked the War Shipping Administration that every consideration be given to plan for turning Fort Trum- bull over to the University of Con- necticut in order that returning veterans be given the opportunity of continuing their studies.
 The school has accommodations for 2,000 and has a fully equipped machine shop. President Jorgen- sen was opposed to the plan, it was said, because he was in favor of centralizing activities at Storrs.
 Gov. Baldwin said he hoped that the school eventually might be used as state headquarters for the naval reserve and that he would continue to look into the matter"

Neqro Voters Want More Than Janiforships

Reports coming from Arizonas larger centers of pop
uaon confirm local that the states Negro voters
resent the DEAL lack of DEAL they have received from
Governor Osborn 1t has been observed and commented
upon that Governor Osborn takes the Negro vote for
granted and is oblvous of obligation to include them
in his thinking He has counted them in any
thing He has simply ignored them which is antamount
to counting them out although he has had their undivided
and constant support every campaign Year after
the Negro supporters have hoped that he would
give them encouragement. They would have been
happy to have received empty gesture of some
sort They have been disappointed and sensitive to
the fact that Arizona has not kept with other states
in the matter of ntegrang it's Negro citizens into the
body polite Arizonas four fold increase in Negro popu
laon during and since the gives the Negro political
potential that not be ignored Included in this increase
many Negroes of ability These have been
quick to observe Arizonas backwardness about which
the having lot to say They will not be satisfied
with smile, pat-on-theback and jantorship at the
Capitol They want to be regular citizens and accorded
the recognition to which their ability and competency
titles them The Republicans return the states pot
cal offers possibilities that Negroes and many whites
have been denied under the party system 1t can be
easily possible that party system it's way out
By his failure to properly evauate the Negro voter Gov
Osborn has made the Negro highly susceptible to the
present Establishments of the Republicans.

OVER $50 VETERANS ARE DECLARED
INELIGIBLE FOR 0N-JOB ALLOWANCES

they do relieve the veterans finan-
cial worry while he is loking for
work.
In order for veteran to be eli
gible to receive Readjustment AL
lowance, he must be out of work
through no fault of his own, be
available for work, able to work
and willing to work.
In Arizona, the number of veter-
ans applying for Readjustment AL
lowance is increasing, due princi-
pally to the immigration of veter-
ans from other parts of the coun-
try. Many of these veterans had no
work experience prior to entering
the armed forces or had acquired
skills in industries that do not ex-
ist in Arizona. Consequently, veter-
ans must use initiative in locating
job to make use of the skills and
abilities they have developed to
gain experience for the time when
job opportunities are fewer than
they are now.

Negro and White Together
Created Inspirational Choir
WINGS OVER JORDAN, famed
Negro spiritualist choir, owes its
existence to two men, Reverend
Glynn T. Settle, pastor of Cleve-
lands Gethsemane Baptist Church,
and Worth Kramer, who before
entering the Navy, was program
director of CHS station VICAR in
Cleveland.
Reverend Settle first took his
church choir to Worth Kramer in
1897 and asked for an addition.
After the program department had
listened to the magnificent singing
of traditional spirituals, Mr.. Kra-
mer volunteered to direct the
group and help prepare it for
regular Sunday morning spot on
the Cleveland station.
Going on the air for the first
time on July II, 1887, the choir,
named WINGS OVER JORDAN,
CATER the words in song sung by
Reverend Settles mother), became
a regular Sunday feature OF
VICAR for six months. In Janu-
ary 1888, Worth Kramer, who had
given up his CHS job and was de-
voting all his time to the group,
auditined WINGC OVER JOR-
DAN for the heads of CHS in New
York. CHS Immediately placed
the chorus on a coast-to-coast net
work where they have been heard
for seven years by an audience OF
over 100000 people, each Sun
day.
Every week, Sunday schools,
families and individuals tune their
radios to CHS to listen to the in
spirational songs of faith so beau
tifully interpreted by the 20 voice
group. They have made personal
appearances in nearly every state
of the union and have donated
time and money to all charitable
institutions or religious causes IN
need of assistance.
Reverend S lie, during the
weekly 3O minute DrOducdSCS, III
PRODUCES each number to be sung
by telling a little of the history
of that spiritual and during each
broadcast also gives five minute
talk on the achievements of great
American Negroes or of white
Americans who have benefited the
cause of interracial understanding
and brotherhood.
More than the talks, however,
the music sung by WINGS OVER
JORDAN, actually tells the story
of the American Negro through
music, feeling and depth OF un.
derstanding- and the group itself
is a living example of the great
ness that has been built by people
of two races through the efforts
of the Negro, Reverend Settle ana

WHO SAID IT
BY d. f. b.

Who said it doesn't rain in the
"Valley of the Sun" ?-the biggest
scoop of the week is the record
breaking rain-and still not over.
Many high school "kidS" have not
witnessed such long continuous
drizZle in Phoenix before, accord
ing to the record. 1 hope it does
not stop our .Congressmen's fight
for the Colorado River Water.
And, while we are on the subject
of water, why not suggest that the
3 cent increase in street car fare
be ear marked and set aside to
buy row boats to replace street
cars on rainy days. (If we have
any more).
Who said "Go west, young man? 2"
Well it seems that advice is being
we'll taken here of late, especially
here in Phoenix-the much criti-
cized part of town, is really "go-
ing to town." Everything is NOV
ing that way. With the compile
ton of the $4,000 Elks home and
the erecting of the Boys Club to
be started soon we will have just
about all of the big things, impor-
tant to our group, concentrated
over there, which think is grand,
even if I am an East-sider. When
the streets are paved, which has
been approved and that area is
taken into the city, which is con-
templated, we will look forward
to a community comparable to
Los Angeles West side.
Places of amusement is on the
list of Improvements; the latest ad-
dition to Phoenix nite-spots is the
American Legion "Dug-out" on
East Jackson ST., opened a couple
of weeks ago by the Wallace Simp-
sons Post,-a clean up to date and
we'll hammered place which is des-
tined to go places.
Who said we wouldn't ever get
a break in the community? What
do you think about Hadley Muir
rells appointment? Not so bad,
huh? A step forward. There have
been other appointments in recent
months which 1 will tell about
next issue, some, maybe you don't
know about.
But bear in mind things don't
"just happen, so until next week
when I'll be bringing you some
more city highlights.
I'll be "sueing" you.

One kind of lizard can shed its
tail, when in danger, and slither
away leaving the tail to wriggle
for a short time, according to the
Encyclopaedia Britannica. The
Wriggling tail often distracts pur-
suers until the lizard has reached
safety.
A fraternal guild of the 18th
century, the Grocers' Livery Com

its members to daughters of guild
men, according to the Encyclo-

failed, Britannica adds.
