NEW YORK, Dec. 2-P-The
stock market limped into Decem-
Der Monday and leaders were
thrown for losses of fractions to
around 3 points on relatively light
liquidation.
Apprehension ove- business re-
percussions from the national coal
impasse received the principal
blame in brokerage quarters for
the stumble. Timid bidding, here
and there, at the same time was
credited to faint hopts that a set
tlement might be arranged before
the fuel situation becomes too
critical. Further moderate tax sell
ing again provided a brake for
bullish trends.

pie through government posts that
give promise of a successful admin
istration.'
Gov. HASTE made a clear differ
entiation between what he termed
the old south and the new south.
He visualized the emergence of a
new south which is typified in the
rise of liberals like Sen. Claude Pep
per, Miss Lillian Smith and in the
establishment of groups like the
Southern Conference of Human
welfare and certain church groups.
He advised Negro colleges to pre-
pare their students to align them
selves with these liberal forces in
the south to hasten the day of real
democracy in the southland. He en-
phasized the opportunities for Ne
groes with well trained minds,
sharp intellects, broad vision and
unsullied souls which alone can en-
able men and women of any race To
soar above the petty notions of race
and color.

the pride Of this countrys merchant fleet. She is the
magnificent America finest liner ever built in an
American shipyard.
On Monday, she arrived from the Newport News
Shipbuildng and Dry Dock Company in Virginia,
and received New York harbor's colorful welcome:
The America sails tomorrow on her Maiden Voyage in
the North Atlantic passenger service under the United
States Lines which has chartered her from the United
States Maritime Commission.
Since it was founded in 1886, the Newport News
Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company has built many
great naval and merchant ships which have served
our country well in peace and in time Of war. The
Anerica, in fact, has already proved her worth.
Throughout 58 wartime months as the u S. S. Wesl

large, fast and yitay needed auxiliary which can be
put into immediate service.
This country must have more great liners like the
Amerioa. For despite the thousands Of merchant
vessels turned in wartime haste lack of both time
and material prevented construction of large, fast
ships Of the liner class. More ships like the Amerioa
required not only for well balanced Navy but
to insure that our country will never again become

shipyards and an abundance Of skilled shipbuiders
and trained merchant ship crews, these priceless

City Forwords .$52,O00
 To Pay Share

The Board of Finance, at request of Mayor John 6. Monagan, yes. terday authorized the forwarding of a check for tSa.Ooo to state author ia3es to defray the city's cost cf the proposed eto4.0O0 veterans housing project here In Waterbury.
 The check was forwarded today accompanied by . request for re- ambursement of sso.oo0 which con- stttutes one.half the sum already expended by the city In grading and preparing the site for the projects. Under the State Housing Authority Act the state is to reimburse the city for one-half of its expenses to the Federal Public Housing Author ity for veterans housing.
 Reluctance. based on certain tech- nicalities, Is seen as the reason for the states refusal for the past few weeks to comply with the agreed upon move. some city and housing authorities said today.
 The sSaO0o cheek represents half the si04.Oo0 Federal cost for the project. As stated. the city has ale ready expended seo.oOO for prepar- ing the site and has been prom ised that the State authorities would reimburse half Of that sum. The re- imhursement has not been forth coming, and in turn has asked the city to forward half of the total expenditures. The Federal authori- ties state they cannot proceed un- less the money is forthcoming.
 Rather than delay the projeci further the Mayor yesterday re- euested that the es2.0oo be for. warded accompanied hy the request for reimbursement of Cne-hah os the eeoooo expended.
 Tn the meantime the State re. Quested that City Comptroller Nell P. kaloney be bonded for the sum of ss7.OO0 so ss to handle State funds. The Board yesterday author ized payment Of s206sto defray costs of the bonding.
