Request Books
For Searnen

An appeal for books of interest to
merchant seamen was voiced today
by Mrs. R. P. Bowling, Board Men,
Der of the United Seamen Ser
vice. Mrs. Bowling, the wife OF q
Master Mariner, now at sea, de-
clared that seamen are avid readers
during long weeks away from theiI
home port. They particularly ask
for reference books and works on
technical subjects. Many are study
ing to upgrade themselves or to i'm
prove their knowledge of their pro-
fession. Material such as National
Biographies, biographical and fic-
tional works is also popular.
The United Seamen's Service is a
Red Feather Service of the Com
munity Chest and receives funds
from the chest for its recreational
and casework program in Seattle
Mrs. Bowling explained, however
that the appropriation for books is
limited and that is the reason for
the public appeal for books. Mrs
Bowling added that books are ir
demand especially by seamen in
their teens and twenties, many OF
of whom attend school and sit for
additional ratings and licenses dur
ing periods ashore.
Gift may be brought to the head
quarters of the United Seamen';

members will assume responsibility
ty for placing contributions aboard
ships Immediately. Donations may
be brought in any evening including
Sundays and day times Monday
through Friday.

This Is a Matter of Hitching
In Japan, for Instance, One Must
Marry Not only tOEat but to Live

TOKYO, April 1.-THE economic
necessity of marriage was never
more clearly apparent than it is in
Japan today, says correspondent
Howard Handleman of the Inter-
national News Service.
Women who work must have hus-
bands to supplement both the legal
yen income and the amount of ra-
toned food coming into the house.
Men who work must have
wives to save them the money
they would spend for hot break
fasts and dinners if they were
living as bachelors, and also in
many instances to increase the
yen income and rationed food.
In addiaion there are thousands
of repatriated soldiers and civil
ian in the big cities who have to
get married to get place to live.
An example of this type is a
young repatriate from the south
ern regions.
He came back to Tokyo in
which he had neither home nor
family left.
For the first few months of his
repatriation he tried to find a
place of his own in which to live
but was unsuccessful. During that
time he bunked in with one friend
after another.
The Wife-Hunt
Finally he began to look for a
wife who had a home.
I've got to get a wife," he ex-
planned. THE way things are
now I'm living with friends. I
pay them rent and money for my
dinner at night.
But I go to work early and
can't very well expect my friends
wife to get up and make a hot
breakfast for me. So I either have
to buy breakfast and lunch out,
or do without.
Buying food in restaurants is
awfully expensive. Two months ago
a hot meal in a common restaurant
cost about IS yen. Now it costs

The governments got
them for sale - but
you'd better hurry

A WESTERN physician complained
~ recently that much of the
surgery in his part of the country
had to be performed in homes; and
in the case of transierits visiting
his town, he added, it was quite
common Ito see the reception
room or dining room of hotel
made into an operating ROOM
Appalling though such print
tive conditions sound, it's reassur-
ing to know that the needs of
many communities have been filled
during the past few months in a
way which couldn't have been
foreseen before the war. They got
"packaged hospitals" - so called
because they were assembled in
crates and ready to be shipped
overseas. Then the war ended.
Modem in every detail, they were
equipped down to the tiniest medi-
cal item anyone could name.
Moreover, they went to needy
communities at a discount of from
40 to 100 per cent.
II Beds in Old Hospital
They represented prodigious
effort" said an official of the War
Assets Administration. Every
thing in them is new - cots, paja-
mas, books, Office equipment, laun-
dry machinery, precision surgical
instruments, dental chairs, oper-
ating tables, and the best avail
able X-ray units"
Vernal, Utah, has shown what
this kind of windfall can mean to
a community. Though it is small,
the town serves as the center of all
needs for vast region of Utah
and Colorado - region in which
some 10000 scattered people live.
The only hospital accommodation
for this entire area was an ancient
frame building which had once been
a girls dormitory. 1t contained II
beds, some out in corridors.

Want To Buy A Hospital?
BY OSCAR SCHISCALL

"packaged hospital stirred YER
nal as few events ever have. Local
businessmen at once subscribed
SIS, 900 toward putting up a new,
modem building. Now, inspired by
the relief the hospital has brought,
they've launched another cam
paign to raise $500. 900 for really
superb building. Judging by all re-
ports, the same sort of spirit struck
every small community which &C
quired surplus hospital equipment.
Has the bonanza petered out?
Not at all. Though there are no
more "packaged hospitals" avail
able at the moment, your town
may still be able to get all it re-
quires of modern medical equip
ment from wars surplus.
Your Town May Get One
HE discount your town may ex-
pect depends on several factors.
Every non-profit hospital. run by
a community. is entitled to basic
40 per cent. Additional discounts
are allowed if the equipment is to
have unrestricted use for all citi-
zens, regardless of race or creed;
if the hospital is supported by pub
lie taxes; if it trains interns or
nurses; if it does research. Dis
counts may total 100 per cent.
Don't get the idea that hospi-
tai is yours for the asking. You
will be awarded equipment only:
/. If you can prove the commu-
nifty really needs it.
Z. If you can prove your towns
ability to operate it.
,. If your community can house
it.
4.If the U. S. Public Health
Service will endorse your appli-
cation.
Finally, there's this to remem-
Der: Your community will have to
pay for the transportation of the
equipment. And it takes a train
of so freight cars to transport a
complete 1,OOO-b hospital!
But if your town can manage
all this, it will receive a modern
hospital for far less than it cost the
Government to purchase it during
the war. It's worth a try!

Credo Of an American

I CHARACTERIZE myself as an anti
fascist. Fascism is the domination, economic
and otherwise Of minority against the in
terests of the great masses of people,
In the light of recent events. recent dis
closures. and the present high policy. the
greatest source of danger. at this historical
period to the emergence of a peoples world
founded upon equalities. economic. racial.
social and political could well be upon our
own American continent.
Yes, what was year ago possibility
has now become reality. The worn out
and dethroned representatives of reaction the
world over turn for support to America
power and might. And they get it.
AT THIS HOUR. in China, in Greece. in
Palestine and in other places, our government,
imperialistic Britain and similar forces help
crush the peoples struggles toward democ-
racy, freedom and independence.
The little people who really fought against
and defeated fascism are being crushed, and
we help do the crushing.
The American people today must decide
what they are going TO support. We must face
the future as bravely did crispus Aiiucks
when he challenged the British troops
on Boston Commons and became the first
American to die for his country.
WE cannot divide. We must not deviate.
We must stand firm in order to create the
kind OF America and the kind of a world
for which we have fought for years and will
continue to fight.
We will go forward together to a genuine
peoples peace. with democratic rights and an
gardless of race. creed. color. cIass-not only

know that in all of them there is a COM

I was struck by the quick success of all
groups in taking part in modern civilization,
once they were given a chance. Eskimos
and people from Turkistan, who had always
been called primitive and backward, took
their place as citizen workers In a few years
they became efficient in every phase of mod
ern life, in building and handling
machinery.
IN RUSSIA I found the real solution of
the minority and racial problems, very
simple solution = complete equality for all
men of all races.

what great strength is added to the whole

flee and the first to understand fascism.

talk with his friends Eugene

played "An Gods Chillun Got

His first concert was a lark.
Essie had heard him singing

mellow voice to the sorrows and

Negro spirituals-and the aud

RECENTLY. Paul Robson
gave up his career "to talk up
and down the nation against
race prejudice" His obligation
was no longer merely to the
Negro-but to all downtrodden
peoples.
He had achieved the dream
of his people. He had played

But Paul Robson, singer,
actor, had become Paul Robe
son-citizen of the world.
IN THE FRONT lines with
the Loyalists in Spain, in the
Chinese struggle against imper-
ial Japan, with the Allies in
World War II, he had found
faith in the brotherhood of man.
And the downtrodden and the
oppressed feel new hope when
they hear their leader sing:
"Go down. Moses.
