It is no longer any secret
The Jews in Palestine have heavier
weapons than anyone suspects 5.
And they may have at their dis
posal small naval units to protect
immigration and munitions ships.
Such ships will be reaching
the shores of the Jewish State on
the day following the British sur
render of the Mandate There
will be no fear of their being in
tercepted by the British Navy
since Britain will no longer be the
"boss" in Palestine's waters
Incidentally, it is a mistake to
think that the Jews in Palestine
depend on American-made arms .. :.
The lifting by the United States of
its arms embargo for the Jewish
fighters would, naturally, help to
no small extent in securing more
weapons But it's primary eff
feet would be to help the Haganah
get arms in certain European and
Latin American countries at prizes
much lower than are quoted at
present These countries are
now charging exhorbitant prices
when selling monitions to the Jews
in Palestine, only because they
know that the Haganah cannot
buy arms in the United States
There is good deal of embarrass-
ment in Washington official circles
over the results of a study now
completed by the Foreign Policy
Association . The study estab

Luxury Trains Collide;
Several Are Injured
BY the Associated Press

MONTGOMERY, Ala, May g.
Two luxury trains narrowly missed
tragic wreck today when they
rammed head on in a dense fog.
AS it happened, one of them
the Miami Chicago Florida Ar
row was standing still-and the
Louisville & Nashville Railroad S
Hummingbird, a streanliner, was
slowing up.
J. w. Patton, district claims agent
for the L. & w., said the Humming-
bird engineer missed a signal in the
fog and failed to take a siding.
Several persons were injured, but
only four were taken to hospital
for treatment. The others were
given first aid at the scene.
The engines of both trains. two
cars of the Hummingbird and one
of the Arrow were derailed. None
overturned. The streamliner was
making a run from Cincinnati to
New Orleans.
1t was the fourth minor accident
for the Hummingbird this year.
In another railroad mishap today,
q New York Central mail and ex-
press train, hauling one passenger
coach, was derailed two miles south

children before and are few schools,
have officials worried.
How acute the situation will be-
come In the next four years was
shown in a population study COM
pleted last week by DR.. Carl e. Han
sen and A. Kiger Savoy, associate
school superintendents. It showed
that by 1852, the white elementary
schools will have an increase In en-
rollment of 16,722 or 60 per cent,
while the colored elementary schools
will add 10,564 pupils to their rolls,
an increase of more than 80 per
cent. Another 758 teachers will be
needed by that time to take care Of
these children.
Although in the past few years the
overcrowding has been in the
colored schools, at present part-time
classes are split about evenly among
colored and white schools. But in
the immediate future part-time in
struction threatens to increase
drastically in the white schools.
The situation at the Hine Junior
High School, a white school even
older than Terrell, and those start
ling danger spots will be discussed
in an article tomorrow.

40 Billions For First Year.
The report cited estimates that
only about 100000 men would have
to be drafted during the first year.
There would be no inductionS for
80 days after enactment of the will.
While sympathetic with proposals
that scientists and researchers be
deferred, the committee explained
it would be unwise to establish in
legislation specific criteria for such
deferments." It added that "the
maximum efforts in scientific re-
search and related fields can best
be safeguarded by granting broad
permissive authority to the Presi-
dent to defer persons whose activ-
ity he deems essential to the Ma
tional interest" '-. %
The selective service program
would cost about $4,000, 900 in the
first year and about $35, 900, 900 in
the second, the report estimated.
