SHANGHAI, Mar. 9.-Two P-39
fighter planes marked with the red
star of Russia made five passes at
a commercial airliner yesterday,
firing their machine guns but ap-
parently not trying to hit it, air
line officials said today.
If they had been trying to shoot
down the slow transport they
couldn't have missed, Pilot L. B.
Buol reported.
The transport, one of the planes
owned by Maj. Gen. Claire L. Chen
nault's commercial airline, was car
rying 80 refugees from Mukden,
Manchuria. 1t was crossing the
Gulf of Chihli south of Russian
occupied Port Arthur and Dairen,
the airline reported, but was giving
those cities "a wide BERTH" as ali
Chennault planes do.
Whiting Willauer Of the airline
staff reported the incident and said
the transport was not within 40
miles of the Port Arthur -Dairen

later was an aide-de- camp to Gen.

mockery Of the Christian religion
based on the universal brotherhood
Of mankind and faith in one God
who judges men by what is in their
hearts and not by the pigment in

cynical attitude toward the religion

There can be little doubt that

Regional professional schools
for Negroes are not the next step
because they are a backward step.
They are not ADVOCATED in the first
place by educators to solve an edu-
cational problem in a reasonable
and ethical manner, but by politi-
clans as an escape from an en-
barrassing dilemma created by the
Gaines decision.
"A device to circumvent the Con-
stitution and the Supreme Court,
that violates the Charter of the

ceptable to a law-abiding, freedom

all professional schools NOW to all
qualified students whatever their
race, religion or ancestry; that is
the reasonable way, the economical
way, the American way, the Chris

Liked Editorial On
Wallace and Third
Party PeerY Saws

Editor: | would like to express
my appreciation for your lucid edi-
torial of the Goth of December,
and since Wallace has become an
avowed candidate for the presi-
dency, | would like to comment
on it in this light.
Wallace has come in for a good
deal of criticism for launching a
third party at this time largely
because it assures the victory of a
conservative Republican and the re-
action that such victory would
imply.
There are two things wrong with
such a confused position. First, as
your editorial points out, the basic
difference between the Democratic
and Republican parties is the
amount of liberal pressure to which
they respond. 1t cannot be denied
that Truman ("the lesser of two
evilsO has become progressively
crusty to such pressure, to say
nothing of the bulk of the Demo-
Gratis who have acted in concert
with the Republicans on both for
eign and domestic issues. (Who
can point to a constructive act by
the SOth Congress?)
Second, Roosevelt's victories
proved that the American people
will recognize and consistently cast
a vote for a genuinely progressive
program. What is urgent, since
Wallace is in the race, is for all
those who would lay claim to the
liberal label to unite behind his
movement and work for a freer
America and a more stable world.
Finally, Negroes because of their
peculiar position in society can't af-
ford the questionable pleasure Of
remaining disinterested or indie
pendent concerning politics. We
are necessarily in the ranks of lib
erals, progressives, radicals-what-
ever one chooses to call them.
Your editorial goes a long way
toward clarifying these things.
