for Naval Air Reserves on carriers or at Naval Air Stations; OF for specialists at Navy shore stations.
 Although the Naval Reserve of fers its advantages it makes no de- mand on its members. Anyone may resign whenever he wishes, and he is not forced in any way to do more than he wants to do.
 A member of the Naval Reserve becomes a respected man in his community and, since the Reserve is a nationwide organization, a member can find friends and ship mates almost anywhere he goes. The winged lapel pin of the Nav al Reservist is recognized every where. Thus, as member keeps LID with the technical developments in his field, broadens his education, improves his skill or learns trade he is doing it in company with friends who are the leaders in his community. He shares with them not only the satisfaction of know ing that he is taking an active part to preserve peace. but he shares also the pleasure of com- radeship.
 The new civilian Naval Reserve is not a weapon for war-it is a power for peace, a restraining hand on war mongers anywhere. But Americans should not forget the warning of George Washington:
 ''It is better to have the guns and not need them. than to need the guns and not have them"

tai homes for veterans, who would be given first choice" This is certainly Iaudable objective, but we hope that you will work not only for sufficient government sub sides to bring rentals for ex-Ser- vicemen within their means, but also for other citizens in the low income brackets.
 Announcement by the Bureau of Labor Statistics that there has been a decline in the monthly rate of new housing is alarming. Despite the rise in the production of building materials and the re- moval of government controls, it is clear that the building indus try by itself is unable to erect in the near future the 100000 new homes the country needs so badly. Its ability to cater to the top third who can afford the present inflated prices for housing does not help millions of American fam lilies who live in overcrowded dwellings and under disgraceful conditions.
 Like Senator Taft and others who are supporting the National Housing Act to make possible de- cent homes for people at rents they can afford. you will probably Ao anQJoJ a Hcn,o v,a,,.A3c& Fa,c EocoS r& by certain lobbyists for blind, greedy real estate and mortgage loan interests. We know this will not worry you in the least, for you must be aware that the con- tinued neglect of the housing prob lem, the growth of slums and the despair such conditions breed do more to undermine faith in the existing order than anything else.
 The Wagner-Ellender Taft bill, like our foreign policy is bi-par- tisan in character. In the present critical world condition it is es- sential that all patriotic Americans should put aside partisan consid- erations. The solid front we are able to present in world affairs commands respect and is bound to be to our advantage. AS we face the greatest crisis in our dom- estic affairs, the challenging prob lem of the housing shortage, it is to be hoped that you and Senator Brien McMahon and our Repre- sentatives in the House will work together with Congressmen of good will regardless of party utilization to enact a housing law that will stimulate the construction of mill lions of modern. livable dwellings

In addition to becoming a mem Der of an organization which com mandS respect and admiration throughout the country members of the Naval Reserve are offered many real advantages. In large communities there already are, or being built. Naval Reserve ArmO- rieS. These 'tclSb houses" are equipped with the devices of a modern Navy-radar, sonar, radio transmitting and receiving, elec- tronics. There are carpenter and machine shops, libraries, recrea- tional space for dances and ath- letics, rifle and pistol ranges. Ships and submarines are assigned to Naval Reserve Battalions so that members may go on short training cruises. The Naval Air Reserve provides first line planes so that its members may retain and im- prove their skill as pilots, air crewmen, or mechanics.
 Because the Naval Reserve is a civic as well as military organiza- ton, 1t offers to it's members in- struction: either in classroOms or in home study courses supplied free. in the Naval aspects of these subjects:
 Accounting. Air Conditioning. Aviation Specialties, Cabinet and Woodworking. Clerical and Per sOnnel, Communications, C0nstruc- tion. Cooking. Electricity. Elec- trOnics, Engineering, Hospital Technician. Laboratory, Lathework, Machinst. Merchandising. Metal smith, Meteorology, Motor Me chanics. Navigation, Pharmacy, Photography. Plumbing and Steam fitting, Radio. Welding.
 Time in the Naval Reserve is credited with a 5% increase in pay every three years. Ex-Navy men are given the highest rate they formerly held and all mem- bers may be advanced in rate. Members of the Naval Reserve continue to receive all benefits of the G. I. Bill of Rights.
 Those who may now enroll in the Naval Reserve are:
 A. Navy, Coast Guard and Ma rine veterans of World War II of any age who served honorably for more than six months.
 B. Veterans of any other U. s. military service between the ages of 17-S9 inclusive.

 Dear Senator:
 Your interest in the proposed National Housing Act (Wagner- Ellender-Taft bilD, as reported in the press account of the confer ence you held with Connecticut CongresSmen, Governor McCon- aughy and other state officials in Washington. is highly gratifying. It indicates that you are seriously concerned with the housing prob lem and that you intend to use your influence to expedite the passage of this bill in aA improved form.
 To those of US who in our daily activities are faced with the prob lems of the working people of this state, the early enactment of the Wagner -Ellender-Taft bill Is of paramount importance. more im- portant than the tax reduction measure, for example.
 The newspapers quote you as saying that the amendments you are offering to lengthen the amor tization period and to lower the interest rate on Federal-guaranteed mortgages are intended ito pro- vide more moderately priced rem

The Mayors Council on Human
Relations took cognizance Of the
situation and urged favorable CON
sideration Of the application be-
cause Of the racial implications.
Alderman Harry Burgum, out
spoken 18th ward alderman, told the
press Buckley is evidently trying
to carry on his collection business
in the city council"
Monday after the see-saw in the
press, Cassius, accompanied by his
attorney, Raymond w. Cannon. and
two other interested citizens went
to the Office Of the city license
bureau and filed his application
without Buckley's signature.
Henry Bank, alderman from the
Fifth ward, had previously told
this newspaper that it was not
necessary to have even one sigma.
ture to get the license before the
health and hospitals committee,
which has jurisdiction over hear
ings on licenses.
The next day Police Captain
Frank Hickman Of the Minnehaha
station who was night captain at
police headquarters "in the good
old days before Humphrey" filed
for the license. He had both alder
mems signatures and he said he
had promised to buy Fabel's bar for
less than $4,000.
Tuesday a delegation Of citizens
called on Mayor Hubert II. Hum
phrey, who is reported TO be favor
able TO the Cassius application, and
critical Of the custom Of forcing
applicants TO buy unwanted Ak
lures. H"'|Pver, the mayor has no
jurisdiction in the licensing field
and has held himself from liquor
license controversies.
Humphrey some time ago offered
a suggested ordinance which would
have changed licensing procedure
in the council, making instances
such as the present case impossible.
-Four other persons have an
nounced their intentions Of filing
for the lone license. The health and
hospitals committee is scheduled TO
meet Monday, July q, at 10 n. m.
A large group is expected TO ap-
pear at the hearings in view Of the
wide interest caused by the case.
