viii be the upkeep of their homes
and their rent payments. The bet
ter the upkeep Of their homes and
their rent payments, the greater
the proof to refute the old real
estate tales against Negroes. Low
rent housing projects started this
proof. It should be continued for
all classes of wage-earners.
A BILL FOR MORE PUBLIC ,
HOUSING PROJECTS
The Bill S. S66 will add each
year $4,000 more homes in pub
lie housing projects. Already more
than third of over 100000 pub
lie low-rent housing units are oc-
cupied by Negro families. Already
many communities in which Negro
families live have plans for such
project housing.
= Thousands of new public
project homes will be occupied by
Negroes.
= This will add to and spread
the proof that Negroes can and
do keep up their homes and pay
their rents.
3 - This will add to and spread
the proof that Negro and white
families can and do live together
and get along we'll in fact,
better than when segregated.
4 = This will reduce the high
rates of Juvenile delinquency,
crime disease and death, which
are the weapons used by the sup
porters of residential segregation
for its extension.
5 = This will provide work for
Negro construction workers since
an "FEPC" system applies when
ever pubic housing project are
built
6 = This will also provide en-
ployment to Negroes in project
manager and project upkeep jobs.
WHAT MUST BE DONE
What was lacking? One thing
and one alone. Not enough of the
people who need the housing
spoke OFTEN ENOUGH, PLAIN
LY ENOUGH, AND LONG
ENOUGH. Not enough people
wrote their Senators and Congress-
men in Washington, cornered them
at home for face to face talking
to, and moved their fellow citi-
zens and VOTERS to do likewise
Only that action, over and over
again, will get housing.
Yet in the last session of Con-
gress the General Housing Bill
was passed by the Senate but then
died in the House Committee on
Banking and Currency.

Says U. 5. Must Back Up Foreign Policy with
 Military Power

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.-Diplo- mats today viewed Secretary Mar shall's first major policy statement as guarantee of determined count er-measures against Soviet world propaganda and attempts to link atomic energy control with disarma- ment
 Marshall declared the United States must back up it's foreign policy with real military power until there is peace with dependable basis of collective security"
 This, he said, means there must be universal military training pro- gram to supply the armed services with manpower.
 He told press conference he does not agree with the Russian view that atomic energy control can be dealt with as part of the dis armament question. In any case there can be no disarmament until there is international security, Marshall said
 Without mentioning Russia by name. he said the State Department must blanket the earth with truth in the midst of a riot of propa- ganda. If the United States con- tinues to give the world an accurate statement of it's position, Marshall declared, others will acept the truth in the end
 The State Department is prepar- ing to beam it's first broadcasts of news and other propaganda to Rus sia on Feb. IT.

WIDE PROBE OF UNIONS
 PROPOSED
House Committee Would Investigate Alleged
 Rdekefeering
By MAX HALL

WASHINGTON. |. Feb. B. The House Labor Committee, which started out to write a new lahor law, sought today to broaden it's hearings into a $50,000 investigation of "all complains of union racket eering."
 Chairman Hartley (R-NO told reporters that if the House grants the money, the committee also will make any other investigations in to the entire labor situation which would help in writing a bill ! This, he said, would involve send ing cub-committees into the field to look into complaints. Three days ago he disclosed plans to send out investigators who will get the views of rank -and-file union men on la Dor legislation.
 Hartley first announced the com- mittee's new plan last night after hearing testimony from eight wit nesses representing Philadelphia fruit and vegetable dealers.
 These witnesses, testifying under oath, said officials of local 929 of the AFL Teamsters Union had ''co- creed and "intimidated' them and virtually shut down the Philadel- phia wholesale produce market.
 Hartley also disclosed he was sending a telegram to the FBI and the Philadelphia Director of Pub lie Safety, asking complete protec- ton" for the witnesses because these men are seriously afraid of physical violence
 Lewis G. Hines, Legislative repre- sentative of the AFL, told report CTS the produce dealers were try ing to put over a smear against the union"

 HeintzIen1an Asserts

WASHINGTON. Feb 8--Frank Heintzleman, Forest Service Di- rector in Alaska. has reported to Secretary of Interior Krug Alaskan paper and pulp development is at least three years away
 Heintzleman informed Krug, Di- rector of the Division of Tcrritor ies Edwin G. Arnold and other h. terior Department officials that half a dozen excellent millsites all ready have been surveyed in South east Alaska,

 Heintzleman declined to see re- porters after the meeting, but a spokesman for the Interior De- partment said the Forester declar- ed large-scale pulp development must await a settlement of Ab- original Rights to forest lands.
 Alaskan Indians claim the area now encompassed by the Tongass National Foiest-virtually all of Southeast Alaska-as hunting and fishing lands.
 Heintzleman added that the ques- ton of long-term contracts be- tween the Forest Service and pulp paper industry also would have to be solved.
 He said that after contracts have been signed and construction is un- der way, about three years will be required before actual production can begin. He estimated that a plant costing S20,00o,C00 might have daily output initially of 150 tons and within l0-year period might expand production to full-cap- acity 500 tons day
 The Tongass Forest area contains { 78 .000, ,000000 board feet of timber sufficient to produce 8C0,000 tons of sulphate or sulphite paper q year, or more than 100000 tons of newsprint. Krug has estimated that Alaska can permanently supply about 25 percent of the present newsprint consumption Sites already have been explor- cd for hydro-electric plants capable of producing more than 800 1000 horsepower
