Council For
Performers


Formation of a new organiza
ton, The Coordinating Council for
Negro Performers, was announced
today and launched on a broad
program to improve and expand
the activity of Negroes in all
forms of theatrical endeavor.
The Council was brought into
existence following appeals from
the public to the Negro Actors
Guild that study be undertaken
of problems relating to the Negro
m the field of entertainment.
1nasmuch as the Guild is strictly
a welfare group, committee of
Guild members acted Independently
to create the Coucnil as a separ-
ate organization. Temporary head
uarters have been established at
165 West 10th Street New York
City.
1t will be the aim of the new
organization to promote a better
understanding on such controver-
sial issues as questionable good
taste" in the selection of material
written for Negro parts, carica-
lures and stereotype characters
and characterizations, and to di-
rect attention of producers and
sponsors to the wealth of available
Negro talent.
The policy of the Council will
be to advocate positive rather
than a negative approach in the
solution of differences, taking the
position that constructive criticism
and mediation should attain mu-
tually beneficial results.

Gasoline with a lower octane rat

the American Automobile Associa-

Itaneously points out, and recon-
mends a light foot on the accelera-
tor pedal to hold engine knocks to
Ia minimum.
Owners of automobiles with
high-compression engines will be
more likely to find the engine
knocking, says the veteran motor

Many automobiles it OBJ
serves. especially those with low
compression engines, will be both
cred very little by the new gaso-
line. That is because the octane
rating in normal times is much
higher than is needed for the aver
age passenger car"
Motorists with high-compresSion
engines can somewhat Offset the
disadvantage by getting off to a
slower start from stop lights and
stop signs. shifting into second
gear on hills and, in general, ham

AAA statement says.
The lower octane rating stems
from National Production Auth

New Miami Beach CauSeway-1n
the last few summer and winter
seasons, visitors of Miami Beach
probably have learned from taxi
driver conversation that a new
causeway would someday share the
traffic between the Greater Miami
mainland and the beach-front
hotels. The new causeway has now
become reality, we learn in a
communication from Miami, and
dedication has been scheduled for
October IA.
The new cauSeway project, con-
ceived by Mayor Broad of the
town of Bay Harbor Islands, cost
more than 81 million, and it is
estimated it will take about 5000
cars daily off the other overloaded
drives between the mainland and
the beach.
Broad Causeway, named for the
Mayor, extends for about "a miles,
from Kane Concourse (Ninety-
sixth street, on the beach side to
Northeast Hundred and Twenty
third street on the mainland.
Winters south-bound motorists
will be able to bypass the heavy
traffic areas of Miami and out
lying districts by taking this
shorter and faster route. At the
same time. Broad Causeway will
offer a new scenic entrance by
spanning the North Biscayne Bay
territory.
The toll will be about Is cents.
