HUE CURED STAB. CORP. TO
PAY FARMERS AT CROP GAIN

More than 285,000 grower

bacco Cooperative Sterilization
Corporation from Virginia to
Florida will receive $4,195,416.15

ager L. T. Weeks announced to-
day.
Distribution of the dividend
from operations cover ing 1892.
100000 pounds of tobacco, Weeks
said, will begin early in January
and run for a month OF six
weeks. He added that this is the
first such dividend paid since
operations began in 1916.
Deliveries on 1947 tobacco
taken under loan were completed
about 10 days ago." the Stabiza-
ton official said. "The S,195,-
416.15 represents approximately
five and one-half percent of the
amount paid for the tobacco
when received by the Stabiliza-
ton Corporation.
More than five percent of the
amount paid to growers will be
distributed to them in cash
while about one-half of one per
cent has been authorized by the
Board of Directors for a revolv-
ing fund. allocated to individual
growers on the corporations
books"
Weeks said distribution will
be made on a dollar-value basis
of tobacco received by the cor
poration. Due to address
changes, he said, many checks
will probably be returned, so all
growers who have had an adj
dress change since 1947 are urg-
ed to notify the Sterilization
Corporation, 522 Fayetteville
Street, Raleigh, N. c., to assure
receipt of their check.
The General Manager said a
statement of 1947 crop loan oper:
ations, showing total amounts OF
money involved. and a letter
with general information about
the corporation will accompany
the checks.

Clyde Wayne, Chairman of the
Columbus County Supervisors OF

servation District, announces
that voters in Columbus County

Each year one Supervisor is

terms of one and two years re-
spective, are: Clyde Wayne

der Annette, Chadbourn.
The nominating committee
composed of Wayne, Annette
and agricultural leaders in the
county, felt that retiring officer
G. T. Gore had gained valuable
experience and rendered such
good service during his three
year term that he should be re
nominated.
Wayne and Annette circulated
nominating petitions for G. 1
Gore early in November. Since
no other group of farmers show
ed any desire to nominate any
other candidate, the election real
" amounts to vote of conf

unimpeachable conclusions: Great
Britain, the United States and
France have overridden Ethiopia's
desire for security, while Italy :
a very recent enemy = has been
given the greenlight.
Along with the announcement
from Geneva comes this weak
explanation from John Fletcher
Cooke, British member of the six
member subcommittee presently
drafting the 1O-year trusteeship
agreement for Somaliland. He
said he did not share the "opti-
mism ofthe Iraq delegate that
there are no threats tothe peace
of East Africa"
Apparently, Fletcher Cooke is
under the illusion that Ethiopia
and her sympathizers are threats
tothe peace, although he does
not say so specifically. However,
it is believed that there is a 5000
man British police force in the
territory. Recently two battalions
were sent to stamp out an up
rising near the Ethiopian border

Trend Away From
"Bias'' Reported in
New Jersey

NEWARK, N. J. CAMP A
survey Of IS non-profit hospitals
in FL counties within the state
disclosed a definite 'trend toward
non-discrimination'', it was report
ed here last week by the State
Department of Education's divi-
sion against discrimination. The
survey was completed last Sept
ember with the cooperation of the
New Jersey Hospital association.
The report said the hospitals
are attempting on a voluntary
basis to carry out the civil rights
and non-discriminatory policies Of
the state government. However, it
pointed out that discrimination
still exists"
All but one ofthe hospitals now
admit Negro patients but "Negro
persons do not have access to all
the beds onthe basis of equility."
The total number of beds in these
hospitals is 14,779.
The report said some paradoxes
were encountered in the provid-
ing Of Negroes with hospital ac-
commodations. One hospital was
found giving Negroes private
rooms at the same cost as semi
private rooms, while another bar
red them from private rooms to
forestall anticipated objections
from white patients. Negroes adj
mitted freely to private rooms in
70 hospitals, and Jewish and Ital-
ian patients are admitted in all.
1t was found that Is hospitals
would not mix Negro and white
patients under any Circumstance
es," but SO assigned them together
in semi-private rooms.

GENEVA Switzerland (ANP)
A decision was made on the in
ternational scene here Thursday
that many informed Negroes
throughout the world will not re-
fish.
Representatives Of the United
States joined Great Britain and
France in supporting Italy's right
to establish bases across the bor-
der from Ethiopia. These italian
military establishments will be
built inthe same colony : the So
maitland = from which Italy laun-
ched its fiendish attack on Eth
opia in the initial stages Of World
War II. Many foreign observers
believe that this move will lead
to trouble of unforeseen proper
tons.
Several weeks ago, Italy was
granted the right to administer
the Somaliland, her prewar colony
In East Africa, as acting UN
trustee for 10 years, This was
granted over vigorous Ethiopian
protest. Ethiopia viewed this move
as q violation ofthe U. N. charter
and the Italian peace treaty. The
Ethiopian vote reminded the U.
N. that under the peace treaty,
Italy renounced all claims to it's
former colonies.
furthermore, Ethiopia declared,
the granting Of a trusteeship toa
country that is not a member of
the UN violates the u. N. chart
er.
Last week Italy added fuel to
the smoldering embers by request
ing establishment of military, ma
val and air installations in Soma
iiland. At the same time in Lon
don, it was announced that Brit
ish warships and troops have been
pouring into the East African
colony Of Eritrea, another pre-
war Italian possession. British
army reinforcements have rushed
to the colony. in considerable num-
bers for several months, it is re-
ported, but they have not been
able to quell native uprisings
against white domination.
Meanwhile, anti British, anti
Italian feeling is rising in East
Africa. Greville Drew, chief ad-
ministrator Of Eritrea has an
nounced that mobility and strik-
ing power of the police will be
increased with additional vehicles
and radio equiment.
This announcement was hard to
stomach in pro-Ethiopian circles
throughout the world. Only a few
years ago the Fascists were doing
on a much larger scale what the
British and their new "allies,"
the Italians, plan to do against
the Thomas Jeffersons, Crispus
Attuckses , and George Washing
tons IF East Africa

Britain Rejects Israel
Application For Arms

LONDON (JTA)-The British
Government has turned down an
Israel application to purchase
arms and certain chemicals in
Britain, it was learned here this
week.
The Foreign Office, informing
the Israel Government Of this
decision, added that permission
to make purchases would b.
withheld until Israel had made
peace with the Arab states.
The application for the pur-
chase of certain types of arms
and ammunition for which Ii
censes are required was made by
the Jewish state some months
ago when the British Govern
ment announced that it had re-
sumed arms deliveries to the
Arab states.
IsraeIs request, it is under
stood, was comparatively modest.
It did not include such items as
Vampire jet fighters, Lincoln
bombers of Cotton Centurian
tanks, all of which have recently
been delivered to Egypt. When
the Israel legation made its first
approach it was assured that the
request would receive sympathet-
ic consideration at the Foreign
Office.
