Single in Peace

A man who has nothing against
the feminine sex as a whole, but
who is allergic to the holy estate,
writes me that he would be perfect
ly happy and contented, If his
friends would only permit him to
stay single in peace. But they
won't. His men friends, who are
husbands and fathers, are always
telling him he should marry, and
his women friends are continually
batting traps for him with VINO
they are sure will be just the sort
of wife he needs, and he wants to
know why man should marry If
he has no inclination that way

Ado CONTACTS
SIXTY-NINE IN
SOTH CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug. 40
Fifty-two Congressman and II
senators were contacted personally
by the JACL Anti-Discrimination
Committee during the first session
OF the Goth Congress, the Wash
ihgton ADO office disclosed recent
ly In Its final reorganization Of ac-
tivities for the Congressional ses-
sion.
In addition to the personal edu-
cationa1 campaign among the re-
representatives. and senators, the A.
DC staff also contacted 2 secretar-
les TO representatives and Il 'ad-
ministrative assistants or secre-
taries TO senators, the report show
ed.
Pointing out that the primary
purpose of all contacts was to pro-
vide background information on
the bills introduced and the need
for further remedial legislation af-
fecting persons OF Japanese ances-
try. Mike Masaoka. national ADO
legislative director, stated:
Additional contacts were also
made with various government
agencies in the hope that they
might endorse the ADO Iegisla-
tive program"
He noted the close cooperation in
which the Ado worked with many
friendly legislative representatives
of various organizations.
Especially helpful were the re-
representatives. of the American CT
vii Liberties Union and the Ame-
rican Friends Service Committee,
Masaoka said.
In addition to those bills in
which the Ado was introduced as
the representative Of persons OF ia
ponese ancestry, the Committee
participated in legislation affect
ing the common welfare, according
to the final report.
Such legislation as the Nation
al Act Against Employment in In
dustry, anti-lynching bills, anti.
poll tax laws, the displaced per-
sons bills, and legislation reIat-
ing to housing and increased be-
nefits for war veterans were a.
mong those bills in which the
Ado participated.
AS q part Of its support of such
legislation, the Ado testified be-
fore a Senate Labor subcommittee
endorsing fair employment prac-
tees in industry in the United
States.
When bills proposing compensa-
ton for American prisoners of war
of the Japanese were being consid-
cred, the ADO called the attention
of the committees concerned to the
dangers of loose language" in pro-
viding for the confiscation of the
assets of Japanese nationals in the
United States, Masaoka declared.
1.-THE ADO protested any consi-
Iteration of such provisions as be-
ing both unfair and ill-advised," he
said and added that assurances
have been received that insofar
as possible the legitimate resident
Japanese nationals would be pro-
tected."
In order to keep the various
japanese American newspapers
in the United States and Hawaii
and Canada informed on the pro-
gress Of legislation, the Washing
ton Ado office sent out 1877 re-
leases In English and III in ia
panese, according 10 the final re-
port.
In addition, the report showed
that more than 2,700 individual
letter relating to legislative and
allied subjects were sent out by the
Washington office to all parts of
the United States, Hawaii, Alaska,
Japan. France, Italy, Switzerland,
Poland, and Germany.

His command in Italy was inves-

Army inspector general, after
charges by Robert c. Ruark, COL

among officers toward enlisted men.
Gen. Wyche reported the charges
were based on meager information

Mr.. Schmidt said Gen. Lee, with
headquarters in York, Pa, will help
organize groups of men in the
church for cooperation with the

be cheaper in the long run than

Coupled with these subsidies
there should be a government edu-
cation program to give women
"solid public honors for activities
as women"
"What is clearly required is a
governmental supervisory agency
devoted to serving women who live
as women - that is. women as
mothers, Lundberg SAID.
He also advocates taxing the

DOG NOTES
By PETER BOGGS

termining the age has to be largely
guesswork.
One way to tell a dogs age is
to look at his teeth. Yet have
known many dogs with worn and
|decayed teeth, and my Pointer
Pal. who is twelve years old, has
teeth nearly as strong and white
and perfect as they ever were. A
better guide to a dogs age is his
elbows. Many years of lying down
and getting up will leave their
traces on the patch of gristle thai
marks the elbows of a dog. The
older the dog, the larger and lum-
pier. and more pronounced is TINS
patch of elbow skin. A dogs ell
bows are a surer sign of his true
age than r his teeth.
THE QUESTION BOX
Question: Do you advise the feed
ing of pork or pork products to .
dog?
j. E. r.
Answer: Pork or pork products
almost invariably disturb an
animals digestion.
Question: Is powdered milk all
right for a 4-month-old Scottie?
L. P.
Answer: There Is no harm In
powdered milk, but I think you will
find your dog will thrive better on
regular milk.

Dr.. Joseph C. Shepard. BIT S.
Second street has the distinction
of being the Oldest %practicing
druggist and chemist in the state
of North Carolina.
Dr.. Shepard first opened his
business at 1913 Market street, the
present site of Blake's Electrical
Contracting, in the year 1896. He
remained in the drug business for
IL years and continued to operate
at the same location. After dis
covering that the manufacture OF
his patented commodities was a
more substantial source of in
come, he moved his business to
the rear of his residence and op-
crates his factory there.
He was born July II, 1867, at
SCOTS Hill. and was reared in
that vicinity. He first attended
school at the age of IA, at the
S. W. Clement school. which was
the largest IN the state at that
time. Attending several other in
stitutions of learning in the state,
he finished his education at Davis
Military, Lagrange.
Upon completion Of his educa-
ton he read medicine under his
father, who was DR.. Joseph C..

Their advised him to study under
a p%racticing druggist, to familiar

was to handle.
He entered the drug business of
DR.. r. R. Bellamy, and worked
with him for a year a d nine
months. Thinking he had learned
enough to approach the bar and
request examination for license,
he did SO, and to the amazement
of the officials, he passed. They
even called him back and grilled
him orally, but he knew the drugs
and medicines of his profession.
At the time, he was only 81 years
old.
He opened a drug store. and op-

ACCORD LIMITED
ON PHILIPPINES
Agreement On Establish
ment OF u. S. Military
Bases Is Reported Near

MANILA, Feb. !-(P-A COM
,opromise agreement OF establish
ment of American military bases
in the Philippines was reported
near today after more than tive
weeks of negotiations in which
the Americans startled the Fill
pinos by offering to Withdraw all
their forces.
This offer, by Ambassador Nc
Mutt, was rejected quickly by Pres
ident Roxas and his chief negoti'
ator. Foreign Secretary Elpidie
Quirino. The interchange was
credited with strengthening the
American bargaining position.
The main stumbling block was
the Filipino insistence that per
manent bases not be located ir
metropolitan areas-chiefly Ma
Mia.
There we're strong indications
that this had been worked out, with
the U. S. armed forces to get ade-
quate port facilities in Manila
pending construction of their own
port installations.
Fort Mckinley and Nichols Field,
both outside the city also were
points of contention. 1t is under
stood that Nichols Field will re-
main under American jurisdiction
but that Fort Mckinley may be
given to the Philippines as soon
as the Americans can build facili-
ties at Fort Stotensberg in the
Clark Field area so miles to the
north. '
Roxas' report to the Philippines
Congress earlier in the week said
the United States lin no instances
has been arbitrary. C, ricious or
unreasonable in the location Of
base sites"
