 Sherman told reporters that the spirit of offensive and optimism was present ''in the army, navy and air force-all of them"
 Collins said that "everything is going along very satisfactorily but they still have got some pretty tough fighting ahead"
 Asked if he had brought back any special report from MacAr- thur, Collins said 'no."

Fairbanks Now
 Very Short Of All Kinds Of Workers

FAIRBANKS, (P) - The labor picture has changed so swiftly this year that contractors are dig zily trying to adjust their con- struction schedules.
 Three weeks ago unemploy- ment figures, estimated by the Territorial employment agency at 2,5OO, stood the highest in the city's history.
 Today, when labor is needed most and contractors are pushing to complete as many of their pro- jects as possible before the end of the building season, the labor market is suddenly so tight that even common laborers cannot be hired.
 More than 100 jobs calling for skilled labor are going begging.
 William Frisby, acting manager of the Fairbanks employment of- flee, attributes the sudden exodus of labor in part to the war scare and expectation of being drafted, and in part to advertisements in Outside papers for workers in the United States.
 4 large percentage of the labor market this year was composed of college students and itinerant workers who drifted up for the season. Many of these have re- turned to the States. Most of them sat around all summer or did odd jobs at pittance wages to make subsistence money.
 Nearly 25 per cent of the short construction season was dissipated before labor and management controversies were ironed out suf- ficiently so that building could go ahead full speed.
 Now the brakes are off, but the fuel tank of labor and materials is running dry, and from present in- dications there won't be any re- fills this year.
 Many of the jobs available are for skilled labor on government work at Ladd and Eielson Air Force Bases. Wages there are low and that is one reason they will remain thrilled as long as the la Dor market is tight, Frisby said.
 Compared with union scales, taking into consideration over- time which the government does not pay, and board and room, gov- ernment workers make about half the union scale. In other words, working a full year they earn just about the same amount as the union worker does in six months.
 In favor of government jobs are inducements such as year-round employment, many benefits, auto matic wage increases and promo tions and job training.
 But the average itinertant work CT sees big money in seasonal work and is not interested in long-term operations.
 It has been an unpredictable year. It will continue to be so if conditions remain as uncertain as they are now.

Member Of
Jamaica's House
Gets Jail Term

KINGSTON, jamaica CAMP
"Off to my prison cell I CO.," de-
clared Allan George st. Claver
Coombs, Peoples National party
member in the House of Repre-
sentatives, last week, as he was
led off by police to serve a 30
day prison sentence.
Coombs was sentenced to serve
the Jail term earlier this year
when, along with two other men,
one with prison records, he used
obscene language to a married
woman in the northeast town of
Falmouth.
The case was heard by Judge
S. T. B. Sanguinetti, resident mag
istrate for st. James whose CAPT.
tai town is Montego Bay. The
case against the MIR, was pres
ecuted by another House of Rep
resentative member, solicitor AL
Ian Douglas, Jamaica labour par
ty member, from Falmouth.
When the case was heard. Judge
Sanguinetti said that he had no
alternative but to sentence the
MIR, as on other occasions he
had been fined the maximum for
similar offenses.
Coombs appealed but lost. The
hearing took place in the Kings
ton Appellate court a few DAYS
ago.
On his way to jail, Coombs de-
clared: GAS long as the progress
sive movement of Jamaica lives,
the plotters and maligners of
freedom and progress will never
succeed. Be it remembered that
the mills of God grind slowly,
but exceedingly fine and sure"
The 49-year-old one time
Trade Union Congress- trouble
shooter, added:
"And now Comrades all, during
my absence don't cede one inch
of ground to the enemy until your
captain comes out of captivity.
Now off to my prison cell I go.
I will soon return. God bless you
my people. Long live all COM
rades - long live the Peoples
National party"

Scholarship Fund Urges Negroes
To Attend White Colleges
Not Interested In
"Two-Way"
Indignation

LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Pa
(ANP) - The National Scholar
ship Service and Fund for Negro
students. headed by Dean-Emerl-
tus Harry ]. Carman, formerly OF
Columbia university, differs with
DIR. Horace Mann of Lincoln uni
versity about the system OF two
way" integration of the races In
educational institutions OF higher
learning.
Carman, in letter released by
DR.. Bond here last week, said the
fund is seeking to get Negroes to
attend White colleges, that 1t IS
not interested in the reverse pro-
cess of encouraging White stu
dents to attend so-called NEGRO"
colleges. He said the fund pre-
fers absorption of Negroes by
Whites to absorption of Whites by
Negroes"
Earlier. DR.. Bond had told the
dean that Lincoln university was
"probably the most thoroughly in
terracial college in the country"
since it's trustees board, faculty
and student body are composed OF
all races and creeds, "a situation
that does not exist in any of the
other interracial colleges" recom7
mended by the fund.
DIR. Bond also said literature dis
tributed by the fund made Negro
high school students ashamed of
themselves and made White stu
dents feel superior to them and
disinclined to attend colleges
where Negroes were in the ma
iority.
