fueling on their training excursions
down to the Gulf of Guinea, then
turn back. Under the present train
ing program, the B-29s do not con-
tinue South or East to other war
built fields in Africa.
The new training operation began
about week ago. Its aim is to
familiarize present air crews with
conditions in part of the world
proved by Warld War II to be vital
to the United States.
The runway at Accra Is under

ample for the B-29s and such trans
ports as the C-54. But it is not clear
whether heavier aircraft now being
used or built by the United States
Air Force could operate from the
field.
Distance is 4,400 Miles.
The distance to the Gold Coast
from England-where three groups
of B-29s are now based-is about

In Race Relations
BY the Assoeioisd Press

ATHENS, Ga, Oct. 21.-Wisdom
In race relation, not racial hatred
and prejudice, is the program of
States Rights Democrats. says the
party's presidential candidate, j..
Strom Thurmond.
The North Carolina Governor
closed q two-day bid for Georgia's s
IL doubtful electoral votes with that
assertion here last night.
We have been accused of waging
our campaign on racial hatred"
Gov. Thurmond shouted to crowd
of 1900, mostly students, in a Uni
versity of Georgia auditorium.
Favors Progress for All.
They say we are against human
rights. I believe in progress and
prosperity for all men, regardless of
color. There is not an ounce, of
racial hatred in my SOUL"
But, the candidate insisted, such
q program of progress for all can
be guaranteed only if the constitu-
tional principle of States rights is
preserved with all its force and vigor.
Il will defend, support and protect
the right of any State to adopt its
own civil rights program. But
will fight to the last against adop-
ton of any such program by the
Federal Government in violation of
the Constitution and against the will
of the States"
Raps Anti-Lynching Bill.
Gov. Thurmond said the entire
South had one lynching last year,
while New York City had q murder
every day. Yet they want to pass
q Federal law against lynching and
not against murder" Gov. Thur
mond said.
That is because an anti-lynching
bill will appeal to racial bloc voters,
to well-organized minorities in the
doubtful political machine States
OF the North"
