ARC. REPORTS ON
 WINTER ACTIVITIES

The Alaska Road Commission released information yesterday on activities throughout the winter months maintaining roads in Alas ka. Winter maintenance consists mainly of snow-clearance, ice-re- moval, marking and patrolling. The mileage maintained on Alas ka roads increases each year.
 According to the report it is possible to drive in winter from many places in Alaska to the States and between points in Alas ka heretofore inaccessible at that time.
 The report states that it is the object of the Alaska Road Com mission to continue to extend the mileage of useabIe winter roads as much as possible and efforts are being made toward that end, although summer maintenance cannot be allowed to suffer through lack of available funds.

Atomic Town Opened To Public

OAK RIDGE, Tenn. (P) This town where atomic bombs are made, and which once was heav- fly guarded against prying eyes, is now an open range for sightseers.
 It was formally opened to the public Saturday-with a fanfare that included a speech by vice president Alben w. Barkley and the presence of several Holly wood notables.
 A 14-mile fence, however, keeps the curious from the plants where uranium-235 is produced for atomic bombs. The thousands who roamed through this town of 36,- 900 over the weekend were not al- lowed even a quick casual glimpse of the uranium chain-reacting atomic pile.
 Tn dedicating Oak Ridge as a free city, vice president Barkley gave the atomic bomb credit for ending World War II at least year earlier than expected.

Another SOLDERING thought; We
have moved far enough 10 make
the BrotheFhOOds appear and
confess; but II remains TO bo
seen II we have the political
strength TO pass an FEPO law
and make the BrotherhOOds TO
form. That 10 tho acid test;
what can We do about it,
This Ia q very SOLDERING ques-
ton when we realize that in poll
tics the Acknowledgement of more
than half our people in the South
puts us In . worse position than
q one-arm prize fighter. II shows
how closely all these civil rights
problems are related, and how we
cannot nght them one az q time
but must fight them all together.
When all the Southern Negroes
vote we win rid ourselves Of the
Dixiecrats. When we get rid of
the Di1decrats there will be no
trouble passing FEPC or any 9TH
err civil rights legislation.
We still have q long distance
10 go, but when I saw Congress-
man Powell use the authority Of
Congress to make the Brother
hoods appear before his sub-com-
mittee, I knew we had left home
and were on our way.

FOhu AFA4tlmeuJ beuu buelE WI
fore q subcommittee Of the House
Of Representative Committee on
Education and Labor 10 answer
charges Of discrimination against
Negro railway workers.
For more than sixty years the
Big-Four Brotherhoods have per-
sistently tried TO drive the Negro
fireman and brakeman Off the
railroads. Charges were preferred
against them In World War II by
the Presidents Committee ON
Fair Employment Practice (F.E.
P.C), but the BrotherhoodS were
20 powerful they completely ig-
nored the F.EP.C.
They did not acknowledge ser
vice OF the charges, made no an
swer. refused to attend the hear
ings and when the F.E.P.C. issued
It's directlves to the BrotherhoOds
to stop discriminating, the Broth
erhoods not only ignored the d.
receives but put on q counter
offensive. They went before the
Smith Committee Of the House Of
Representatives and charged the
FE.P.c. with exceeding its juris-
diction.
Last week II was different.
Congressman Adam Powell was
sitting as Chairman Of the Sub
Committee Of the House Commit
tee on Education and Labor which
was holding hearings on HR Ass
(Powell's F.E.P.C. bin).
Thursday two weeks ago on
behalf Of the Negro Railway La
Dor Executives Committee had
preferred charges against the
Brotherhoods. At the conclusion
Of my testimony Congressman
Powell announced that he was
sending kilograms to the chief
executives Of the four brother
hoods TO appear and answer the
charges, that II they ignored the
kilograms he would then issue
suhpoenas against them; that
they were not dealing with q war
time FEP.C.
The Brotherhoods did not need
q subpoena. They all responded
to the kilograms. The Vice-Presi-
dents came forward one by one a.
Congressman Powell called their
names, and feebly tried to show
how although their unions barred
Negroes from membership and
had q long record of forcing
agreements on the carriers either
ourtailing or destroying Negro
workers rights. stin the unions
were not to be considered anti
Negro.
We have reached the point
where a Negro Congressman
welding all the power of the
Congress Of the United States as
Chairman Of . subcommittee
hearing can make the Brother
hoods appear and confess.
How far do we stin have 10 got
Congressman Powell sent his tele-
gram to the heads of the Broth
erhOods. They did not appear. In
stead, they sent their vice-presi-
dents who came In making diff
ferent excuses why their chief
executives did not appear. II It
had been q different bin and q
different committee the heads Of
the Brotherhoods would have
shown up In person.
As II was the BrotherhOods
apparently felt they had to DEM
onstrate they do not accord q
summons from a Negro Congress-
man all the courtesy and respect
they show q summons from any
other Congressman. That is an
