To the Editor: The war is over
now. The dark man can start
hunting for a job and If someone
else does not want 1t. maybe he
can have it. But first he must
know twice as much as man of
another color and he must be even
little more humble.
Suddenly he's changed. He fought
side by side with men of other
races, but he cannot live with them.
The enemy's bullets asked no Gre
dentials, but to the other races
he has no credentials. not now,
the war is over.
II only a handful of the Tacoma
people would realize and do some
thing about the invisible barrier
placed and the horrible show of
discrimination taking place in this
community. Dark men who have
come back from the war, manned
and sick of spirit cannot even buy
a decent home. They must live
in the filthy. crowded. antiquated
neighborhoods that no one else
will have. They cannot go to res
taurants of good character and
they cannot stay in the well es-
tablished hotels.
No matter what type weapons
the people of the world create
we cannot survive. we will not be
a really great nation until some
horrible tragedy wipes clean the
slate of cruel. bitter. humiliating
discrimination.
Forgive them God for they
know not what they do"

Sentence Sermons
BY REV. FRANK CLARENCE
LOWRY for AMP

l. Who is there that can't make
a living for himself, when all thai
one has to do Is simply give q
full days work for full days pay
as he tolls the whole day through ?
q But the noblest creatures are
not these whose selfish interests
they strive to please-and simply
toll to make a living, while others
freely their lives are giving.
8. The Hallmark of Christianity
on such creatures cannot be found,
though they try to appear as look
ing heavenward, in reality they are
looking down.
4. God finds 1t not difficult to
lay His hand on those whose ear
nest deeds emit from the heart with
no intention to pose.
5. Folks who would rather
prove their Christianity and make
others feel it, than to try to enjoy
big name by having to steal it.
6. What q vast difference there
is between make-believe and the
Believer; the latter is not a talker,
but a burden bearer.
Z. These are the persons who
do more than warm pew on Sum
day. but rescue the perishing, care
for the dying from Monday thru
Saturday.
8. The Burden Bearers are Gods
choice scholars; they study His
precious word as a Holy design or
chart. and then gladly go forth
for enlistment to do their honest
part.
Q. A world embracing more fine
characters like these could effect
many matchless cures; lift burdens,
dispel sorrow and overpower sa-
tan's lures.
10. 1t is sad, but the facts daily
face US that, too many think only
of their own, and leave the poor
and the needy with burdens too
heavy to be borne.
IL. Nevertheless. what bless
ing it is to contact just one
who sees life Alright, and proves a
heavenly example of what 1t takes
to Danish all blight.
IL. Though the world today is
still in turmoil and distress. the
Apostle Paul's letter to the Gala
tians bears the same truths to us
in his following adnonition Bear
We one another's burdens, and SO
fulfill the law of Christ. For If
a man think himself to be some
thing when he is nothing. he dsceiv-
eth himself"

Chiang's S 5trategists
Plan New Assaults
By the Associated Press

TAIPEI, Formosa, Mar. ST.
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek
and his military strategists to-
day mapped new attacks against
the Chinese Reds.
Meanwhile, a strong National
ist task force prowled Hangchow
Bay, warning on concentrations of
Chinese junks. Latest reports said
many Red junks had been sunk
and nine were captured.
The operation was continuing.
Nationalists have reported sink
ing some 100 Communist junks
the last few days.
Chiang's strategists discussed
means of strengthening defenses
on Formosa, Hainan and other
Nationalist islands. They also
talked over plans for counter
attacking the Reds on mainland
China.
Details were kept secret. But
it is considered likely the first
results will be commando-style
raids on the mainland on a larger
scale than the recent strikes at
Sungmen and Chientiao, south of
Shanghai.
Nationalist press reports said
Communists in Shanghai picked
up two prominent Chinese, Match
King Liu Hung -sheng and Huar1g
Chin-yung. leader of the powerful
Green secret society, for failure to
buy their quotas of victory bonds.

Beer Bottle Fingerprint
Leads 10 Arrest Of Tin
Kidnap-SIaying Of Girl.
BY the Assosiatsd Press

SACRAMENTO, Calf. Mar. 81.
"A fingerprint on q beer bottle
brought about the arrest last
night Of two brothers within four
blocks Of the Governors mansion
on charges of kidnapping and kill
ing an 18-year-old girl at Van
couver, Wash.
The FBI laboratory in Washing
ton, D. c., said the flngerprint on
the bottle-picked up at the scene
OF the assault-checked with that
on a car owned by Utah Eugene
Wilson, 81. = former resident Of
Elmo, Kans. @
That touched of an FBI search
for Utah and his brother, Turman
Galllea Wilson, "a. formerly OF
Walnut Ridge. Ark. They are
charged with kidnapping and mur-
dering 10 Ann Dewey March 10.
Her brutally beaten body was
found March 26 in Wind Creek
near Stevenson, Wash.
Traced by Abandoned Cars.
Last night, as the brothers ap-
preached an automobile they had
parked here, they were nabbed by
FBI agents and police. Neither
resisted. Officers said Utah had
q .25-caliber Spanish automatic
pistol and that a revolver was on
the front seat.
1t was the end OF a trail traced
by abandoned cars. One had
faulty exhaust which may have
played part in the girls death.
Examination showed that she had
died of carbon monoxide poison
ing.
10 Ann on March 19 called her
mother from the Vancouver bus
depot and said she was unable to
get transportation to Portland,
Greg. Her mother advised her
to spend the night at st. Ioseph's
Hospital in Vancouver.
Long Criminal Records.
Police received a telephone call
at 1880 pm. that a woman was
being beaten by two men near the
hospital. Witnesses saw the
woman struggle, then saw a black
car drive away with its lights out.
Evening star., 1950-03-31

The telltale beer bottle was picked
up at that point.
Discovery of the body, the fin
gerprint check and the trail of
abandoned cars led to last nights
arrests.
Police said the two brothers
have long criminal records.
Vancouver Police Chief Harry
Diamond said his inquiry led him
to believe 10 Ann was knocked
unconscious for resisting her ab-
ductors and died on the floor Of
the kidnapers' car when fumes
leaked into the rear seat. Chief
Diamond said she had not been
raped. Her home was at Meadow
Glade, Wash.
