 ARMY BOMBING RANGE
 The War Department has made no request to the Interior Depart ment to enlarge its present bomb ing range south of Fairbanks along the Panama river, according to in- formation given Delegate Bartlett following inquiries made on be- half of the citizens of Fairbanks.
 In 194l, by executive order, 655,000 acres were withdrawn as an army aerial bombing and gum nery range, and fear was recently expressed that the army planned to request withdrawal of addition al acreage to include the game and fur sanctuary extending to the Delta River, including the buffalo feeding grounds.
 Delegate Bartlett has been as- sured by the Interior Department that if any such request comes from the War Department, his protests will be considered.

RESERVATIONS IN RESTRICTIVE
COVENANT CASE
AROUSE COMMENT

COLUMBU S, O., Apr %
(ANP)-A furry of comment is
going around judicial circles here
because of the recent designations
of Judge Fred Wickham and Atty
Baxter Evans, both connected with
the Dickinson restrictive covenant
case
Judge Wickham, who first heard
the Dickinson case on April l and
2, resigned on April 18, and Evans,
a member of Columbus city coun-
Gil who was counsel for the coven-
anteers, resigned his council mem
bership on April II to become SEN
ior city attorney.
Judge Wickham of Delaware,
O., who was called in to hear the
case when all local common pleas
judges disqualified themselves,
gave as his reason for resignation
the fact that there wasn't enough
work to keep him busy.
After hearing the Dickinson
case, Judge Wickham took it under
advisement and has not yet given
his decision, although it was
thought by Atty. Frank C. Shear
er, counsel for Rev. L. L. Dickin-
son, that the decision would be
handed down by April 10 or Is.
Approached for a statement on
the recent events, Atty. Shearer
declined to say that he saw any
significance in the judges resig-
nation. Rumors are that Baxter
Evans resigned rather than face
irate voters of Columbus east side
in next falls election.

VOTE ON UNION

ST. LOUIS, Apr. % (ANP)-
City taxicab drivers held an elec-
tion here last week to determine
which of two union branches, Lo-
cal % or Local 1925, CIO, will rep
resent them as a bargaining agent.
Rivalry between the two has
caused strikes, picketing, and vio-
lence. The winning union will rep
resent the $50 drivers here, and the
losing union will surrender it's cre-
dentials.
Secret balloting under CIO coun-
Gil supervision was conducted in
the action taken, CIO representa-
tives explained, to put an end to
this dispute, which has resulted in
gun play between rival cabs and
warfare between armed taxicab
drivers.

the history of the United Automo-

to head one of it's locals when he
was installed here as president of
Local 453 during impressive cere-
monies at Amalgamated hall. The
membership is two-thirds white.
More than 1,5O0 white and Ne

historic event that marked the eli
max to a career that began here
nine years ago when Ellis was work
ing at the National Malleable Steel
Casting Company in Melrose park.
He was one of the workers that
helped organize the plant into an
independent union and served on

er was unjustly discharged while
he was a member of the bargaining
committee. Facts in the discharged
workers case were presented to the
company but he was not reinstated.
'It was this incident that started
me to thinking about things, Ellis
recalled, 'the more | wanted to be
able to do something about it."
Two years later, in 1910, he was
a member of the group of about Is
that obtained union charter from
the UAW-CIO and formed local
762, which amalgamated with Lo-
cal 453 the following year. Ellis
was one of the energetic group that
spearheaded a cleanup campaign
against corrupt union leadership
and was elected financial secretary
of his unit. He served as financial
secretary Of his unit in 1912 and
1943. In 1914 and 1915, he was
elected general vice president of
Local 453 and was elected by an
overwhelming vote to the presi-
dency of the Amalgamated local
this year.
Born in Columbia, S. c., Ellis
came here after finishing his first
year in grammar school. He at
tended River Forest elementary
school and then graduated at Oak
Park High school in Oak Park, Ill.
He was elected class officer in his
junior year at Oak Park and was
member of the basketball and foot
ball teams. He excelled in boxing.
Ellis local already has $500
members, but he is busy planning
to recruit 10000 unorganized work
ers, he said. He also plans to pur-
chase a building to give medical,
dental and recreational service to
members.
81 am concerned first about the
welfare of workers, regardless of
race, creed or COLOR" he declared
Nothing is more important right
now than the unity of the white and
Negro workers."
He and his local, he said, will
support the CLOS Political Action
Committee and it's program to
build new party.
The local intends to demonstrate
through the newly elected leader
ship the need and necessity of a Ne
gro being elected on the JAWS in
ternational board. The nation S
largest union is without Negro
board member, he pointed out, al
though the UAW has at least 75,-
600 Negro members. About CT per
cent of the members of his local are
white, Ellis disclosed.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., April IL
Some 200 Washington, D. c., man
and woman bowlers are headed here
today to fire in the National Duck
pin Bowling Congress champion
ships and other events. Many OF
them will shoot tonight in the John
Dennis and John Blick specials,
held annually in conjunction with
the title tournament.
A Few of WaShington's national
champions of yesteryear have put
away their bowling shoes, but
among the big delegation headed
here are many making their fourth
NDBC trip North since the first
tournament was held at Waterbury,
Conn, in 1890. In the inaugural
event, Henry Hiser's Bethesdans
won the mems team title, Joe Null
roe and Paul Harrison annexed the
mems doubles crown and Lorraine
GULL won the women's all-events.
The 1886 tournament at Hartford
Conn, was a banner one, partlcu-
s,larly for the D. C. fair rollers.
Lucky Strike, led by Miss Gulli, won
the women's team title and Lucille
Young, now captain of Chevy Chase
Ice Palace, electrified a packed gal
lery by winning the women's singles
with a record score of Alb to climax
an all-time mark of l 1859 in winning
the Women's all-events.
With competition keener as the
years roll by it's doubtful if ever
another set of bowlers dominates a
national tournament like Washing.
