POSTAL VICTORIES

Houstin, Tex, is boasting OF Its
first colored postal clerks In Al
years.
The story of their appointment
is another feather in the cap Of the
militant leadership Of the National
Alliance of postal Employees. Six
Negro clerks recently have been
put to work in the Houstin Post
Office-and not in a separate
Negro branch either.
The NAPE is meeting its South
ern problem 'head-on'. There has
been very little, if any, pussy
footing since Ashby Carter has be-
come president of the organization.
So well regarded are its militant
efforts, white postal employees are
beginning to join NAPE because
they believe it is the only group
working in te interest of the postal
workers.
Typical of the new approach OF
the Alliance to problems in the
South is the interview gained not
long ago by Pres. Carter with
Postmaster Mcclellan, brother OF

y ARIZONA veterans of World War
II are passing up 600 million doll
lars worth of protection, comfort
and independence - over half a
billion dollars of security for their
families" Roy B. Rummage, State
Director of Insurance, declared to-
day in urging veterans to reinstate
their National Service (GD Life
Insurance.
It is estimated that more than
$4,000 of the $4,000 World War II
veterans in Arizona have allowed
their CT Insurance to lapse, he said.
"The value of NSLI can best be
attested by the fact that the Ma
tional Association of Life Under
writer's and the outstanding insur-
ance companies are urging veterans
to retain their government insur-
ance, in one of the finest acts of
enlightened unselfishness in the
history of our country" Rummage
pointed cut.
National Service Life Insurance
is huge unrealized asset that can
play tremendous part in our fu-
ture," the State Insurance Director
stated, land 1t has special advan-
tages that no other insurance can
offer. It is the most economical
insurance, available only to the
man who earned it through his SER
vice, but it has many other advanz
tages than the price tag. There
are no restrictions as to travel.
residence or occupation, or disabil-
tiles incurred in service. CT InSur-
ance provides for waiver of pre-
miums in case of total disability.
Total disability income benefits
may be added for small addition

Liberal provisions of NSLI now
include: lump sum settlement or
choice of three monthly install
ment options; three endowment
plans payable at maturity, making
six permanent plans in all; and
unrestricted choice of beneficiaries.
CT Insurance payments to benefi-
ciaries are tax exempt"
Declaring that "it will be tragic
loss if this national resource is lost
through oversight or misunder-
standing" Rummage explained that
CT term Insurance can now be rein
stated by paying only two monthly
premiums, without physical ex-
animation if health is as good as
when the policy lapsed. Reinstate-
ment forms and information are
available at offices of the Veterans
Administration and local posts of
veterans organizations, he said.
National Service Life Insurance,
the insurance that only veterans
and members of the armed forces
can buy, is loaded with micellane-
Gus features designed to give
maximum protection and invest

One of these features is called

STILL DOING ESSENTIAL OCCUPATION WORK

LEGHORN, Italy.-As the close

ater draws nearer, Negro troops
here are still found in essential
positions, carrying out the occupa-

For the most part, all of the Ne
gro troops in Italy are assigned to
units of the Peninsular Base Sec

police station in Pisa, within a
short distance of the famous Lean

mately $500 in February. Among
the units were two military police
companies; one patrolled the high
ways in the Leghorn-Viareggio
area and operated road blocks
while the other one guarded the
Fort of Leghorn. Other units in
cluded a bakery company which
baked all of the bread consumed
by the base section, a port COM
pany and two Transportation Corps
truck companies.
Peninsular Base Section install
lations extend over a wide area in
and around Leghorn. Until recent
ly a car company of Negro men
and officers was stationed in the
city and served the PBS headquar-
