Gay on the last railway escape from

This was the first indication
'tnat TN Uoinnstniist offensive
might have penetrated so deeply
into South China. Previous dis
patches have indicated the main
Red thrust was aimed at Hang
chow.

say what caused suspension Of rail
traffic between Hangchow and Man
chang or where Red troops-if any
were operating along the line.)
NO SHANGHAI ATTACK
A traveller from Hangchow said
today that city had heen occupied
by Nationalist militia. He said COM
lat troops were not in evidence
but he had no idea where they had
gone.
In Shanghai there was no undue
amount Of military activity and
nc sign OF any impending Red at
tack. Within the city. troop move
nents were not especially evident.
Hundreds Of Chinese soldiers, how
ever, boarded Chinese naval vessels
which steamed down the Whang-

Applications Open
For Firemen

In addition to an examination
for 60 policemen, we learn that
there will be one for 40 new fire
men to be added to the fire de-
partment. We strenuously urge
negroes who meet the physical and
age qualifications to go to the civ
il service commission office in the
Municipal Building for applica-
tons.
The exam will be held on April
IA. Applications must be in by
April IL. Applicants must be be-
tween the ages of 81 and 20, and
between the heights of five feet
seven inches and six feet.
Several civic minded individu-
ais in the past have endeavored
to persuade eligible Negroes to
apply for the job of fireman, but
their pleas were in vain. 1t was
just impossible to get anyone to
apply. Many excuses were CIV
en-, but the main one was the IA
talistic, "Well they won't hire
me anyway"
This will be the largest number
of firemen hired at one time in
a long time. The new additions
to the police and fire forces are
made possible by the new NUM-
cipal income tax. Negroes will
be paying this tax. They deserve
some of the benefits. Negro fire
men in the fire department are
benefits.
All the department has now is
an inspector. There should be
some Negroes on fire trucks. Now
is the time for concerted action
to get them on the trucks. The
first step is for Negroes who quail
ify to apply.

Negroes Need
More Trained Leaders
-FSA Survey Reports

NEW YORK, April l.. IAN
PA study on national problems
Of Negro education points to a
need for more trained Negro
leaders to develop a sense of So
cial responsibility it was learned
here last week. The study was
made by DR.. Ambrose Caliver,
specialist in the office of educa-
ton of the Federal Security Ag-
ency.
His report stressed the need
for increasing the proportion of
Negro professional workers and
recommended sending more Negro
trained personnel to countries with
large non-white populations.
Negroes have some response
bility for the status of certain ia
cilities and conditions for the
training of their leades," he said.
"The advancement of Negroes in
the south is largely dependent on
the sympathetic attitudes of
southern white leaders and it is
in their own interest for southern
white leaders to become more ac-
tive toward the advancement of
Negroes generally and particular
ly in developing leaders,"

Outstanding Sportsmen
Receive Recognition

Carl "Hoot" Gibson, sensational
center on the Roosevelt High bas-
ketball team, and Sage Brown,
smooth Dunbar Wolverine received
honorable mention in the All-Ohio
high school basketball teams it
was announced yesterday. Their
staunch admirers are still congrat-
ulating the two youths for Win
ming such recognition. The poll
ing was participated in by about
700 of the states head basket
ball coaches, 60 newspapermen
and about 40 officials. Selections
were made on basis of regular
season play only. Both Gibson
and Brown were in Glass A.
While on Dunbar, it looks like
another great year for the track
team which is once more operat-
ing under the aegis of Dave AL
britton. The lads won a smash
ing victory yesterday afternoon
over Parker. They won every
event but the pole vault, and they
tied that.
We were talking to Dave last
week and he declared that de-
spite the loss of such stellar stars
as Frank Kilgore, the mile champ
Maceo Colefield, the quarter-miler
and Vernon Stroud, the remark
able high-jumper who never really
did reach his high school peak.
Lynn Owens and Russ Hender-
son will be back to repeat their
exploits of last season. Albritton
expects to have more eserve
strength than he has had in past
years which means more points.
All in all he is expecting a much
stronger team than that which won
many titles last year.
