To facilitate this, the United
States Government might buy the
homes and lands of Negroes in
those areas in the South such as
Mississippi and several other Deep
South States where there is no
real hope of the Negro lifting
himself by his bootstrings out of
the mire and muck of second
class citizenship, in order that
those who desire to move out and
resettle in a different atmosphere
may have something with which
to make the new start, elsewhere
The whole problem involved in
the matter of justice for the Ne

by the South and her co-conspi-
rators in the North they make
bold as never before to say they
are determined that it shall not
abstain, And they are prepared
to Go bloody murder TO maintain
the framework in which they pre-
serve horizontal race relations

will develop during the campaign
that will more than adequately
fill the breach caused by previous
defeetions of Negro voters from

Many COP Negro Spokesman
are known to be favorable to the
replacement of present National

would like to see former Chair
man Herbert Brownell, of New

manship. II is remembered that
under Brownell, Valores J. Wash

Illinois Commerce Commission,

by some as indicative of a change

observed by a celebration at the
Labor Temple Saturday evening, De

capacity crowd for the building, esti-
mated at about 1000 people.
Many out of town visitors and
former leaders of Kalispell unions
were prominent in the crowd, and the
renewal of old friendships throughout
the evening was observed to be adding
much to the spirit of the occasion
Sylvan T. Walter, president of the
council, was chairman for the eve
ning's program.
Farmers Union Participation
and Music
The singing, led by Lawrence Son
stelie of the Farmers Union, accom-
panied by Evelyn Salisbury at the
piano, proved to be very popular, the
following songs being theoretically
sung by all assembled: Organic, Or
ganize", "He Wears a Union Button,
and Solidarity"
The dramatic skit "It Can Happen
Here" was pointed lesson in fascist
divide and conquer tactics. The cast
of Farmers Union members included
Harold Ridenour, author of the skit;
Roger Wendt, Lawrence Sonstelie,
Wilfred Petersen and son and Robert
Howell.
Robert West, president of the Vel

and close affiliation of all Montana

DR.. Clark Speaks
In his address as a principle speak
er, DR.. w. P. Clark of Montana State
University cOmplimented the Kalispell
council on its past ten years history
and mentioned that some of it was
not as good as he could wish. He
cited as one example the teacher sit
uation, expressing his regret that the
union teachers of the Flathead County
High School had quit their jobs, and
he felt that they could have accom-
plished more by remaining on the
inside.
DR.. Clark stated that the future of
organized labor in the Kalispell vicin-
ity would be much greater than if the
Hungry Horse Dam had not gone
through. He said that the whole area
would be in for an era of develop
ment because of the dam, and urged
the people to back up a strong move
ment for a eva and an MVA. He
urged greater activity in political af-
fairs by all working people and

have in guiding such

Mr.. Dulles, named yesterday by

But it achieves drama at the ex-

an extent that is almost irrespon-

1T is cruel deception to make
people believe peace can be pro-
NOTED in slapdash ways. The five
countries named are not the only
ones that have substantial arma-

by no means in an equal position as
regards the slashing of armaments. -

Veteran of Two World Wars
Heads Marines at 7sinqtuo
Gen. Thomas Rose From
Ranks, Knows Way
Around in China
BY the Assoeiofed Press

A husky little brigadier general
who has been in many tight spot
before-like Belleau Wood and
Guadalcanal-is the No. Marine
at touchy Tsingtao.
He is 54-year -old Gerald C.
Thomas, who has fought in world
wars on two sides of the world. He
knows his way around in China.
Gen. Thomas is commander Of the
Fleet Marine Force at Tsingtao.
That outfit now numbers $500 men,
but is to be expanded to 4,80O with
the arrival late this month OF rein
forcements from Guam. 1t is re-
sponsible for the safety of Ameri-
cans getting out of China through
Tsingtao before the advancing
Communist armies.
The general, native OF Slater,
Mo-, came up from the ranks. He
enlisted in the Marine Corps almost
as soon as the United States en-
tered World War I. He fought at
Belleau Wood and scissors with
the 9th Regiment, and was commits
stoned a second lieutenant in time
to fight in the Meuse-Argonne
offensive.
Went to China in 1885.
In between the wars, Gen. Thomas
moved around like all Marines
duty in the United States, afloat
with Marine detachments on war
ships, a campaign in Haiti against
bandits. In 1885, he went to China
to begin two years with the Marine
detachment at the American En-
bassy at Peiping.
AS operations officer of the 1st
Marine Division, he prepared the
plans for the Solomons Islands cam
paign in World War II, in which
Guadalcanal was wrested from the
japanese. The Distinguished Serv-
ice Medal was his reward for that
campaign.
The 1850 Marine reinforcements
to leave Guam next Tuesday aboard
the transport Bayfield, for Tsingtao
are members of the 1st Provisional
Marine Brigade and a part of the
Fleet Marine Force of the Pacific,
whose headquarters are at Pearl
Harbor.
The Fleet Marine Force of the
Pacific consists Of infantry, aviation
and supporting units with bases at
Pearl Harbor, Guam and on the
West Coast of the United States.

The President said then he approved
of the November 20, 1947, partition
plan boundaries for Israel. This
would include the Negeb Desert in
Israeli territory, but the President
said it was hoped, with the Berna-
dotte plan as a basis of negotia-

could be settled.
Count Folke Bernadotte, the slain
mediator, had recommended that
the Negeb be given to the Arabs and
Western Galilee to the Jews. The

Hubert Humphrey, liberal Senator
elect from Minnesota who defeated
Senator Ball, Republican, with
labor's help.
Yesterday the AFL heard Senator
elect Russell Long, Democrat, of
Louisiana pledge his aid to repeal
of the Taft-Hartley Act when the
Eighty-fir Congress gathers in
January. He predicted the act
would be erased within 80 days after
Congress convenes.
Mr.. Long, a carbon copy of his
father, the late Senator Huey Long,
in looks as we'll as in ability to hold
an audience, drew wide applause as
he promised to vote with labor most
of the time. He said, however, that
he favored writing into a substitute
for Taft-Hartley the requirement
of union officers to file non-
Communist affidavits. He declared
that his father had "a perfect labor
record" in II years as Federal and
State legislator and as Governor Of
Louisiana.
Mr.. Long was highly praised by
AFL President William Green as

United States-the son of dis

he would like to see Secretary of
