will not halt the inquiry. He said
the committee staff will continue to
work on the case and declared:
The investigation is not be-
ing stopped-definitely not being

He said II wanted certain infor-
nation from Mr.. Hughes which !
couldn't get without Meyers pres
ence."
Mr. Meyer still is registered at the

said today he had not been seen
nor had he answered the telephone

Pepper Describes Session.
After Senator Ferguson's an
nouncement, Senator Pepper gave
reporters a brief account of what
went on in the closed session.
He said that when the subcommit-
tee convened, Senator Ferguson ex-
pressed the opinion that "the right
course" would be to recess until
November.
I'VE acquiesced," Senator Pepper
added.
Il Told that Mr. Hughes had said he
did not believe the hearing would be
reopened in November, Senator
Pepper replied:
Did he say that? Well, dom
know. It's been set down for Novem-
ber IT,"
Asked for comment on the hear
ings which have been held, Sen
ator Pepper told reporters:
It's all over now and I don't
believe care to say anything on
the hearing itself.
Il think everyone who saw Mr..
Hughes agreed that he is an ex-
ceptionally able man and a sin
cere man"
Brewster Sees Opening Phase.
1t had appeared likely that had
the hearings continued. accusations
by Senator Brewster concerning al
legged poker game payoffs" for pro.
curement officials during the war
would have been threshed out.
Senator Brewster, who took the
witness stand last week to deny Mr..
Hughes charges that he Senator
Brewster) offered to call off the
investigation in return for merger
of Trans World Airlines and Pan
American Airways, declared at his
home in Dexter, Me-, last night that
the current subcommittee inquiry is
only the opening phase" of much
broader war contract probes.
Later this year. the committee in
tends to look into reports of poker
games in which there were $1,000
bets which procurement officers
were permitted to win" he said.
There have also grown up in
Evening star., 1947-08-11

some instances cases Of procure
nnent officers who have received very
high-salaried positions with firms
with which they had little earlier
placed attractive war contracts, -
the Maine Senator added. Such
cases naturally invite examination ~
Remarking that "the day of the
little black bag as a payon device
has gone," Senator Brewster said
there are million $1,000 bills in
circulation. Some holders of the
bills, he said, are willing to sell their
bills for $500 in smaller bills harder
to trace"
"a Treasury Department official
today said 800 $3.50 bills Of $1,000
denomination were in general
circulation on June 80 of this
year, with an additional 1879 in
the Treasury and the Federal
Reserve banks)
Hughes Absolves Arnold.
The postponement of the hearings
left hanging in the air a request that
Gems. H. H. Arnold, former Army
Air Forces chief, and Carl Spaatz,
present commander, be called as
witnesses. This request had been
made by Senator Pepper.
In testimony last Saturday Mr..
Hughes absolved Gen. Arnold Of any
connection with what he called the
hatred" and bad feelings" of va
rious subordinate officers against
his during the war.
Senator Pepper said last night
that the reported bad feeling against
Mr.. Hughes may have caused him
to hire Mr.. Meyer.
"He probably got hold of Meyer
and said to give these officers all
Of the entertainment they want" :"
the Florida Senator said.
Senator Pepper, in a radio inter-
view, also renewed his charges that
the Senate Committee majority had
its eyes on the 1948 presidential eiec-
ton by making the Hughes inquiry
its big case" for 1947.
The Florida Senator commented
that It was a strange coincidence"
that that the committee picked a
case involving a son of the late
President and passed over consider
ably bigger cases Of alleged fraud
against the Government.
Senators Ferguson and Brewster
have denied that they singled out
the Presidents son or that they are
by-passing other investigations.
They explained that the Hughes
contracts have been under exam
ination for many months.

BY H. A. STALLINGS

JACKSONVILLE - The people
of Jacksonville have many rea-
sons for being proud of their
school. That justifiable pride IN
their own school for their own
children ought to cause the peo-
ple of Jacksonville to make up
their minds and their determlna-
tions unalterably to fulfill some
of the needs of the school IN
1948.
Let's look first at some OF the
reasons for that pride. The
Jacksonville school possesses IN
it's principal, W. R. Lingle an
unus ally comprehensive
and training and an exceptional
" conservative view of what
the future should provide. He
did his undergraduate work at
Lenoir-Rhyne; he dld MS
graduate work at Duke UNIVERSE
tv: he was athletic coach Tor
ten years; he has been IN the
administrative work for three
Years. In the next place the
Jacksonville school is develop
ing versatility in student actlvl-
ties, which same versatility does
more than the laymen things to
produce graduates capable OF IN
dependent thinking and broad
ered adaptability. The stu
dents publish an annual, The
Cardinal, with Miss Betty Jean
Reavis. editor -in-chief, and Mrs.
Estelle Hardison. sponsor. They
publish a monthly school paper
with Miss Nell Mitchell editor.
They maintain a Dramatics club
with Mrs. Ruby Bridges Turn
ey. sponsor. They have a Scien-
ce Club with Miss Evelyn Wells,
president. There is Pen an Ink
Club with Miss Hettie Green
president. There is a Glee Club
directed by Mrs. Evelyn
Stewart. There is well-organlz-
ed, functioning Safety Patrol
which assists in handling trat-
fic safely and keeps two repre-
.entatives on each Of the ten
school buses. There is a Junior
and a Senior All club.
In the third place the Jack
sonville school is doing some
thing with athletics. During the
past two years Mr.. Lingle was
coach and in those two years
the boys basketball team won
IS and lost six games While
the girls basketball team won
fifty-four and lost fourteen
games. In 1916 the teams won
all the cups offered in the Ons-
low County League and Tourna-
ment, and the boys won the
Eastern North Carolina High
School Tournament at Kinston
by beating the Camp LeJeune
team. This year Calud Allen
is coach. For the first time the
school had a football team and it
has creditable first season,
winning games, tying one and
losing five. The school, also,
has a baseball team.
An outstanding source of pride
is that the school is accredited.

ty, DR.. Wallis Shelby church is

Taken From Life

This means graduates can enter
standard colleges without ex-
animation. it means the library
facilities, the salaries of teach
ers. the teacher load or the num-
ber of pupils per teacher the
professional qualifications OF
teachers and the like meet the
requirements of the Southern
Association of Colleges and
Secondary Schools.
Let's look a moment at statls-
tics. The school has 1,095 pupils
in the grammar grades and 205
in the high school. The school
is doing well at keeping boys
in school. Look at these figures
by grades: First grdae, 92boys,
81 girls; second grade, Is boys,
81 girls; third grade, SIS boys,
SO girls; Fourth grade, 70 boys,
81 girls; Fifth grade, 90 boys.
80 girls; sixth grade, 70 bays,
81 girls; seventh grade, 81 boys,
81 girls; eighth grade, So boys,
81 girls; ninth grade, Al boys,
26 girls; tenth grade, 80 boys,
% girls; eleventh grade, %
boys, 80 girls; Twelfth grade, 8
boys, 26 girls. There are 81
teachers. For special work there
is a home economics depart
ment, unconventional, taught by
Mrs. Ruby Bridges Turney, a
music department taught by
Mrs. Evelyn Stewart, a typing
and bookkeeping department
taught by Mrs. Evelyn Stewart.
Arrangements are being made
with the Richlands school that
will provide instruction in vo-
cational agriculture and veterans
training.
Recent improvements include
new cafeteria equipment, new
school furniture, new library
materials, a complete physical
check up on all high schpl
pupils by a physician and nurse.
trent physical check up for all
athletes, the holding OF eye
clinics, radio programs, broad
casts of football and basketball
games.
Here are some of the needs.
Beautification of the school
grounds, a new cafeteria build
ing, a new gymnasium build
ing, a lighted athletic field.
These needs can be filled. Sup
pose the Jacksonville Lions Club
adopted as it's 194S activity a
lighted athletic field and the
Jacksonville Kiwanis Club adopt
ed as it's 1948 activity a new
cafeteria building. The chances
are that both civic clubs would
make a success of these activi-
ties and Jacksonville oy the end
of 1948 would actually have a
lighted athletic field a new
school cafeteria building. The
pride of Jacksonville people and
Jacksonville civic clubs in their
school might we'll inspire them
to meet these needs. They car
easily be met in 1913.
