College Prof. Awarded
$4,000 in Bus Suit

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Feb.
2e. (ANP)-Charlie B. Hauser,
instructor at West Virginia State
college, was awarded $1,000 by the
Atlantic Greyhound corporation
in an out of court settlement Of
his suit against the company for
false arrest and attempter segre-
cation in interstate travel. He was
represented by T. G. Nutter, at
torney.
While travelling from Winston
Salem, N. c., to Charleston, w.
Va, on a Winston-Salem-Charles-
ton bus, the college professor was
arrested October 10, 1947, in Mt.
Airy, N. c., for violating the state
jim crow laws. Bus driver, Charles
Edds signed a warrant for his ar
rest after Hauser refused to move
to the rear of the coach.
In the subsequent trial at the
Mt. Airy Recorders court Judge
Harry Lledellyn dismissed the
charge, saying that Hauser's tic
ket showed that he was in inter-
state travel and did not violate the
segregation law. He based his de-
cision on a recent U. S. Supreme
court ruling.
Following this, the teacher sued
the bus company. In settling the
matter out of court the bus firm
said the driver had violated in
structions in signing a warrant
against a passenger. Company rep
resentatives promised that like in
cidents would not recur on their
lines.

From time to time the Negro
Industrial Press service, a unit of
the National Association for Ne
groes in American Industry, a
non-profit organization, sends ma
terial to our desk here at the Ex-
press which they feel is of general
interest to the public.
This latest release of this group
has some interesting facts about
the increased industrial expansion
in the south. 1t is interesting to
note them as a sort of a measur-
ing rod for us in the north. Per-
haps if we compare the little pro-
gress we have made as group here
in southern Ohio, with that which
has been made in the south, we
will think more seriously of catch
ing up and even surprising them.
1t is we'll known that economic fac
tors play a large part in determin-
ing the progress of groups in cap
italistic society. 1t is wise to use
ones economic strength as we'll as
our political strength.
According to the Industrial
Press service more than 26O new
businesses are expected to open in
Louisiana in 1948. In North Caro-
lima 406 plants are expected to be
opened up, and 262 others in line
for expansion.

American league, leave for spring

one goal in mind and that will be
the recovery o fthe Negro World

Many changes have taken place
since the curtain rang down on
the AT campaign. The disappoint-

type of diamond performance seen
in the regular season when they
failed to make the same type of
play against the National league
champs who came on to take the
Buckeyes in tow for the World
flag, caused the Buckeye front

George W. Carver
HI Sf; ".s;;, o" Builders

The dramatic story of George
Washington Carver will be the
subject for WINS Builders Of
Destiny" program during Ameri-
can Brotherhood week. Program is
aired tonight from 7:15 to 7:45
p. M, EST, over the Cincinnati
radio station.
Series ordinarily honors a diff
ferent community in each broad
cast, but the Brotherhood week
story is dedicated to an American
whose story belongs to no one
town.
The Carver story represents the
first time in the Builders of Des-
tiny series that a Negro has been
the subject of the drama. Script
was authored by Alan Stern
Charles J.. hammers, veteran
WLW dramatic producer, will d.
rect the show; music will be con-
Quoted by Bert Nicely, and sound
will be handled by George Mund-
henk and Charles Wilson.
The opening scene is set in
Washington's Union Terminal,
where DR.. Carver arrives to pre-
sent a case before a congressional
committee. The date is January,
1921, and Carver has been called
to Washington to demonstrate
peanut and sweet potato products.
From thatp ONT the story
flashes back to the day Of Car
ver's arrival at Tuskegee Insti-
tute from a college in Iowa and
his meeting with Tuskegee found
er Booker T. Washington. The
script dramatizes Carver's untir-
ing research at Tuskegee and his
gradual winning of Alabama farm
ers to the value of peanuts as a
money crop.
The Builders Of Destiny mar
rator summarizes Carver's contri-
buttons to humanity and science
with these words in the script:
"The word Synthetis has come in

Rebels caucus

Newspapers in Hong Kong were
reporting this week that promi-
nent leaders of rebel move
ment within China's Kuomintang
government party would soon
hold policy meeting in Hong
Kong.
One paper said the purpose of
the conference was to discuss
measures resolving the civil
war;" but another said it was
aimed at revolution to bring
about a complete change in pres
ent policies of the national gov
eminent" Whatever its specific
purpose, it was Indicative of the
spreading discomfort with Chang
Kai-shek and the corrupt leaders
of his Kuomintang ruling party.
The conference was summoned
by group known as the Kuomin-
tang Elders, many of whom fought
beside Sun Yat-sen to overthrow
the Manchu emperors and estab-
lish the Chinese republic.
Meanwhile in Kansas City, Mo-,
Gen. Feng Yu-hsiang made some
harsh remarks about Chang in a
speech to the Methodist Fedora
ton for Social Action. The So
called christian general is an
other who has broken with Chang
and now is under orders to return
to China because of the critical
comment he has made in the
United States concerning the
present national government of
his native land.
There is utter corruption and
inefficiency in the Chinese gov
eminent under the generalissimo, 3"
Feng declared. "The generalissimo
is absolutely ruthless. In May of
t947 under his orders, a massacre
of Chinese students was carried
out. Three hundred were killed
and 100000 were put in concentra-
ton camps"
SIN China" he said, at is a
struggle of democracy against die
tatership." .

tired American naval officer
charged that the Russian inven-
tor, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky,

weapons.

cient Zacharias proved in the

1t was announced in Paris this
week that the French will re-
vamp their military apparatus to
follow the U. S. pattern. This
means that France will be armed
with American weapons and its
army, air and navy force will be
established on an interlocking
basis with U. S. forces. Blueprints
for new weapons will also be
made available to the French.

Plan free Greece

Failure of the costly Truman
doctrine in Greece was underlined
last week by the action of guer-
riila forces, who were strong
enough to announce creation of
the first provisional democratic
government of free Greece.
As a result, the U. S. State De-
partment is expected to ask Con-
gress for more money in addition
to the $300,000,000 already grant
ed, plus extension of the program
beyond the June 80 deadline. In
addition to munitions and military
observers" it is now considered
likely that American soldiers may
be brought into action against the
Greek democratic forces who have
gained ground and adherents since

Announcement of the Free
Greek state set off a government
roundup in Athens of some 500
persons who were charged with
plotting the assassination of a
number of prominent Greek poll
ticians." The mass arrests were
considered as the first step in a
new program of terror by fascist
government supported by the
United States.

De Nicola siqns

The constitution of the new
Italian Republic was to become
effective at midnight, on New
Years Eve after President Enrico
de Nicola signed the historic docu-
ment late last week in a cere-
mony in the library of Rome's
Palazzo Giustiniani.
Meanwhile, left-wing politicians,
intellectuals and labor and agrari-
an leaders met in Rome and voted
unanimously to unite four re-
cently-formed mass organizations
into a Democratic Popular Front
of Liberty, Peace and Work to
oppose the rightist De Gasperi
government in next Aprils par

No silver lining

Resentment against rigid race
segregation imposed by the United
States, and the strength of the
United Public Workers, CLIO,
which a year ago organized

week as major factors in the I'M
animous rejection by the Panama
assembly of the U. S. request to
maintain troops and bases there.
Panama has a huge non-white
population, both native and West
Indian. But since the building of
the canal, rigid jim crow policy
