Firemen Rescue Flyer
CAUGHT in Tree an Hour
By the Associated Press

BATON ROUGE, La, July O.
Firemen used a 65-foot ladder and
a rope to extricate former Army
Air Forces flyer and his light private
plane from a tree top last night.
Losing altitude as he approached
the airport, the flyer, Attorney De-
van D. Daggett, jr., landed in the
tree to avoid crash. Pinioned by a
wind on a top branch, pilot and
plane hung there for more than an
hour while hundreds of passersby
on a nearby road looked on.
Supplementing their ladder with
rope, the firemen brought the
flyer safely down.
Mr.. Daggett was a colonel in the
Army and has had private license
for six years.

Right to Work, was presented to
them. They thought that this leg
iSlation would break the back of
organized labor. They financed the
campaign and upon securing it's
enactment they thought that would
settle the irritating problem once

| What has been the result? Class
hatreds have been fomented. This
is something desired by the Marx
lists. Disputes have become more
frequent and bitter. Membership
in the A. F. of L. locals have con-
tinued to grow. Labor people have
again returned to the old funda-
mentals of trade unioniSm. Now
more than ever before there is
clearer thinking on the economic
issues on the part of the workers.
The unorganiZed know that their
only salvation is bargaining with
their employer collectively.
The present legislation nor any
future legislation can prevent
these workers from asSociating
themselves together in a trade
union and bargaining collectively
as long as this country continues
to be a democracy. This so-called

The People Speak :.
The Youths View

Dear Editor:
am no public writer, neither do
/ claim to be writing for the peo-
pie. For the last two weeks I have
been reading an article in your
paper claiming to be the voice of
the people. / am sure the writers
of the last two articles were not
speaking the candid opinion of the
people of Phoenix in general. The
first writer could not have been
speaking for the people because
he just got here yesterday, and the
writer of last week could not have
been speaking for the people, be-
cause he has been here too long
to be just now becoming interested
in the welfare of the people. do
not propose to be defender OF
the Rev. L. B. Nelson, because l
am sure that a man of his worth
and ability doesn't need any one
to speak for him. Let us look facts
in the face. Rev. Nelson has just
been here about threee years, but
let us see what has he meant to
the people since he came. First,
he has organized a business con-
Germ which is giving employment
to twelve Negroes with pay roll
of over $1,000 per month, has built
up a congregation of over one
thousand people, he is one OF the
leaders who is leading out in the
purchase of seven acres of land
on Broadway for religious school
for the members of the baptist
churches throughout the state. 1t
is through the keen vision of this
man that I am able to work on a
part time job and stay in school.
I am product of Carver High, I
am proud that God brought me
through, but if a few fighting men
like Rev. Nelson, can assure the
boys and girls of better Carver
of tomorrow, hats off to them. We
can never get anywhere arguing
about a n being in the wood

ms is the time of year when l
look forward so eagerly to spring
and all the new foliage and gay
colors. This is why l was so in
terested last week when visiting
with Ray Hookway, noted color
consultant at Cleveland. He told
me of sixteen new .Kem-Tone COL
ors that had just been created for
painting walls and woodwork. You
know all good decorating starts
with the right wall colors!
These colors bring Spring in
doors! And, do you know, they
have been so cleverly studied out
that they all blend just perfectly
with other colors.
Mr.. Hookway showed me color
sketch of a fascinating bedroom
that you will be able to see, Incl
dentally, in a March issue of the
Saturday Evening Post. Blue walls
and ivory ceiling, using two of
these sixteen new colors, making a
perfect background for a red
striped boudoir chair, and the bed
spread and curtains of a yellow
rose floral pattern with deep green
leaves.
These new Kem- Tone colors Just
won't clash! They are bright, gay,
and give you a real spring time
feeling of spacioushess an d
glamour.
Of course. I always think of the
practical side, too; so it was a real
thrill to know that these new COL
ors go on like magic because you
mix them with water! You can do
it yourself easily. They dry in
an hour and are washable. Isn't
this all exciting news for spring?

|1947 TO SEE new
BUILDING RECORD

Washington, D. C.-More money
will be spent on new construction
in 1947 than in any previous year
in the nations history, according
to Herman B. Byer, Assistant Chief
of the Employment and Occupa-
tional Outlook Branch of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics. That
huge program, the Labor Depart
ment official predicted, will re-
quire something over % million
workers at the site of new projects
during the peak month, probably
September.
Speaking over the radio pro-
gram, 1.-THE Labor News Review
With Albert N. Dennis" Mr.. Byer
asserted that it is probable that
nearly 15a billion dollars will be
spent for new building this year,
more than in any previous year,
and so percent more than in 1916.
about 925,OOO workers will
probably be employed on housing
alone during September" he said,
ecause indications are that
around a million new permanent
dwellings will be started during
1947, even more than 1925, our
best housing year thus far. About
$4,000 units are expected to be
completed, compared with less
than half a million permanent
dwellings in 1916.
"The large volumn of home
building" he continued, twill not
prevent considerable expansion in
other types of construction. BIS
estimates show that while expendi-
lures for new housing are expected
to rise by 62 percent this year over
last, expenditures for nonresident
tial buildings, chiefly commercial
and inductrial construction, will
probably advance over a third,
public utilities construction over
a half, and highway and road work
perhaps as much as 80 percent.
"Half the workers at the job
site this September, probably as
many as a million and a quarter
men, will be skilled mechanics"
