A Negro veteran of Walton

us. They're killing Negro vets,
and we don't have nothing to fight
back with but our bare hands. In

way they were coming, but here

And why don't they leave? "My

Studying Bill

WASHINGTON (JTA) = The
Ives-Javits Bill which permits the
entry of displaced war orphans
for adoption by American citizens
is being considered by the Immi-
grafton Subj Committee of the
Senate Judiciary Committee. Ben
H. Brown, assistant to the State
Department legal advisor, told the
subcommittee at a hearing that
the State Department supported
the orphans bill, and also other
legislation to permit the entry of
displaced persons.
Ugo Carusi, U. S. Commissioner
of immigration, said the Justice
Department opposes the bill be-
cause it is "piecemeal legislation"
Gerold H. Ullman, assistant to
Senator Ives, testified that the bill
was not intended to cover the
whole program of displaced per-
sons, but only to afford some relief
to the orphans.

 The party also went by boat to the east end of town to view the erosion situation.
 Col. Hall stated that one thing was sure, individual effort is of no value and in fact the efforts of one might be injurious to the property of another.
 During the visit, Col. Hewitt and Col. Hall contacted A. M. Hart ford, manager of the U.S.S.R. &, Mining Co.,, Frank Love, mining engineer, G. R. Jackson, O. S. Weaver, Bud Harper, and Christ Roust, for information regarding storms, damage to property and erosion.

FATHER LA FORTUNE TO REST IN FAIRBANKS

Father B. F. LaFortune, Jesuit priest, real pioneer beloved by natives and whites, both old and young, has left for Fairbanks for rest. The best wishes of the en- tire community go with him and the hope that he will be complete ly rested and able to return in the fall.
 He has given his entire life to the people of Seward Peninsula, working and living with them and teaching them as well. For many years he was the only white per son on King Island where the er,- tire group is like a big family. There he served as teacher, doc tor, nurse, and whatever was necessary. He even translated a portion of the Bible into the ESki- mo language, heretofore unWrit- ten, to help these primitive people to become good Christians.
 His sacrifices have been many and deserving of recognition. He was made an honorary member Of the Pioneers of Alaska a few years ago, for he is truly a pioneer.

Fish And Wildlife Service Will Reduce Operations
tBY Vern Haugland)

c(P) Special Washington Service)
 WASHINGTON, CP)-The fish and wildlife service said yester- day it will reopen its Beaugort, N. C., and Pensacola, Fla, marine bi- ology laboratories but must re- duce other operations to meet budget restrictions.
 Elmer Higgins, chief of the di- vision of fishery biology, and An drew w. Anderson, chief of the division of commercial fisheries told a reporter after study of fi- nal budget appropriations that the agency also will reduce the com mercial fishery laboratories at College Park, Md, Seattle, Bos- ton, and Ketchikan, 30 to 35 per cent.
 It will also eliminate statistical surveys of fisheries except in New England, New York and the Ches- apeake Bay area, and except for limited amount of work in Washington, Oregon, California and the Great Lakes area. l It will virtually immobilize its four mobile laboratories, two Ol which have been operating out ot Seattle an dthe other two out oi College Park, Md, and the Boston fish pier.
 Anderson said the division will retain six or seven technical men at the College Park and Seattle laboratories, two at Boston ano two at Ketchikan. The laborator. ies are engaged chiefly in research and services leading to improved quality and greater efficiency ir the fishing industry.
 Anderson added that the reduc- ton of fishery statistical studies on the Pacific Coast will largely reduce to the northeastern area what once was a service covering the coastal areas.

NEW YORK. (P) - A lot of fighters have found there's no money in being light heavyweight champion as long as there are beatable heavyweights around and in the case of Gus Lesnvich the most surprising thing is that it took him so long to make the dis covery. A colorless, methodi- cal ring workman for several years, Gus suddenly busted out as a knocker-outer after his discharge from the Coast Guard . Here's the way manager Joe Vella ex- plains it: "The biggest purse Gus ever got before the war was about S8,OOO for fighting Tami Mauriel- To. When he got S12,0O0 for flat tening Joe Kahut, he thought it was all the money in the world. He said, If the fans want to see action, I'll gamble with anybody for that And then he went over to England and got S50,00O- that's when he really turned kill CT"

Navy Contracts For New AirbOrne Radar Sets

radar for installation on transport planes of the Naval Air Trans port Service. The contract, valued at approximately Sl,000,000, is with the Houston Corporation, Los Angeles, Calf.
 The new airborne radar set, which will provide pilots with positive safety and navigational checks when flying blind over hazardous terrain, was developed by the navy in cooperation with the American Airlines. It is for exclusive use on transport air craft.
 Under present plans, all four engine navy transport planes will receive the new equipment, with deliveries expected to begin in early l948. When the installation is completed, MATS planes will be equipped with the latest cleo tronic aid yet developed for safe flying and navigation.
 Specifications for the new ra- dar, designated APS-42, were de- termined by the army, navy and American Airlines after more than year of collaboration. The pur- pose of the program was to de- termine the exact type of radar most desirable for transport and commercial use by eliminating military features and concentrat- ing on developing the possibilities of airborne radar as a safety and navigational aid. Starting with an airborne search radar of the type used during the war, enough data was accumulated through experi- ence to establish specifications for the new set. The navy contract for 100 of the new airborne radar sets is the first to be let.
 Especially important in the de- sign program was the need for weight saving. The resultant de- sign calls for a set weighing ap- proximately 150 pounds-suffi- ciently light so that it will not in- terfere seriously with the trans ports pay-load.
 In the Navy transport installa- tions, the radar scanner will be mounted either in the nose of the plane, which will give the pilot radar map of the 220 degrees of terrain ahead of the plane, or un- der the fuselage, which will give the pilot a complete 360 degree radar map" A five-inch PP1 (Plan Position Indicator scope will be mounted in both the pilots and co-pilot's positions, and ir , certain installations a provision is made for a twelve-inch scope in the radioman's compartment for use in navigation on long over water flights.
 By use of the radar, the pilo' will be able to "see" land masses up to 100 miles ahead of him. Fol terrain clearance a pencil-beam is used. This beam swings around the aircraft like a searchlight and in effect, presents a safety circle in which the receipt of any echo indicates danger. When used with radar beacons, bearing and dis. tances may be determined up tc 225 miles.

Church Bingo Games Ruled

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Oct. IT,
Attorney General Ira j. Partlow de-
clared in an opinion yesterday that
bingo games are illegal in West Vir-
ginia and that religious, charitable
and benevolent organizations are
subject to criminal prosecution for
conducting them.
The opinion was in answer to an
inquiry from Ohio County Prose-
cutting Attorney Charles Ihlenfeld,
which grew out of a recent anti
gambling campaign in Wheeling.
While an Ohio County grand jury
studied testimony on gambling con-
ditions last week, Sheriff Thomas
Padden ordered a shutdown Of all
gambling in the city, including
church-sponsored bingo games.
The grand jury brought out Is
indictments charging gambling, but
none involved bingo games.
