State policemen reported they

A man identifying himself as
Howard Fast, the novelist, told
reporters on the scene that he
was to have acted as chairman
of the meeting. He assailed the
parade that preceded the riot as

Persons in the parade, mean

The parade plans were an

of Foreign Wars, and Catholic

Several hours before the con-
cert was to start, the compound
branch of the American Labor
Party sent a telegram to New
York State Attorney General Ma
thaniel Goldstein asking police
protection.
| Leonard Rubenfeld. chairman
Of the Veterans Council, said be-
fore its start that the parade
would be "peaceable."
The scheduled appearance was
to have been Robeson's third in

York headquarters of the United
Nations.
The Hoover Commission, in

had grown so rapidly time had

The Senate also approved a bill
to allow the enlistment OF 10000
carefully selected alien soldiers in
the United States Army.
The bill, sponsored by Senator
Lodge, Republican. Of Massachu-
sets, now goes to the House. 1t
would allow the aliens to enlist
for five-year terms. They could
qualify for citizenship at the end
of their Army service. Enlist
ments woulds be limited to single
men 18 to IS years old without
dependents. The Secretary OF
State would have to approve re-
cruiting in any nation.
The Senate adopted a similar
provision last year as part OF the
Draft Act but the House refused
to accept it.

AS expected on call Of the

ferred action on bills for an M

seven vehicles were pitched up

One unidentified Negro was re-

OF TOURISM


THE WORK ON TOURISM in the Virgin Islands is pro-
crossing, and from all indications is slated to become one of
the principal means tor increasing revenues for these islands,
In conjunction with the entire West Indian group. At the re-
cent Conference the plan for the development of tourism was
presented through a report by the Conference Committee ON
Regional Development on Tourism, by the Hon. Roy P. Cor
don, Chairman of the Legislative Assembly of the Virgin Is
lands. This report presented a number of proposals for a
sweeping program, including a careful study of conditions, a
request to the State Department to repeal the Is per cent Fed
eral travel tax, competitive air service between New York and
San Juan, as well as touriSt-class service at lower rates.
SO SIGNIFICANT is the work to be done that a 5000.
OO appropriation has been requested for the next two years,
and the larger islands, including Cuba, Santo- Domingo, Ia
maica and Puerto Rico will each contribute $4,000 annually.
Irinidad-Tobago will contribute $1,000, and the smaller is
lands, including the Virgin Islands, will contribute $1,000,
each. In the Virgin Islands an extensive program for the i'm
provement of hotels and other facilities is progressing, and the
100000 appropriation from which loans will be made, is
being requested. With the Virgin Islands Hotel, Buccaneer,
Bluebeard Castle, Hotelon-the-Cay and others there should
be ample Accommodations.
TIME N AGAIN WE have spoken out for this type
OF program, and are indeed happy to see the genuine pro-
gress being made. Our people should prepare themselves for
what lies ahead, and thus be fully ready to take the opport1n-
tiles and advantages which will follow the tourist trade, as it
develops, Ii people will come to our shores, they would ma.

tend to make their vacations all the more delightful. 'Drv
cleaning and pressing at a moments notice, quick shoe re-
pairs, taxi service and transportation at reasonable rates. maid
