WASHINGTON, d. c.. (NNPA)
"A southern Army officer last
Friday highly praised a secret
type company composed of col
ored personnel, which served

Major General David G.. Barr,
commanding general Of the 7th
Infantry Division in Korea, said he

to the States in line with the
policy announced by Army Chief
of Staff ]. LaWton Collins to cap
italize on and disseminate the
combat experience gained on the

At a brief session for reporters

Clean And Store
All Irrigation. ri
Equipment, Now

BY cleaning and storing irriga-
ton equipment now, you will save
dollars from replacement parts or
repairs when spring rolls around
again.
This reminder comes from James
Middleton, irrigation specialist for
the Agricultural Extension Service
at the University of Arizona.
Wash and dry all canvas dams
and store them away from the sun.
Syphon tubes need cleaning and
storing, too. In that way, next
spring you can expect to find your
metal tubes free of bumps and
bends. Rubber tubes will be free
from rot.
The same treatment should be
given to spiles, checks, and all
other movable irrigation struc-
lures.
Drain your pumps and clean
them as a protection from freez-
ing. All other portable sprinkler
equipment needs cleaning and stor-
ing.
Lubricate earth-moving and cul-
tivating equipment which are not
being used. Cover all exposed sur
faces of equipment, such as plow
shares and disc, with grease. This
equipment is then safeguarded
from rust and corrosion while in
storage.

Tuberculosis
Arizona's No. ;
killer In 1850

A statistical study of tubercu-
losis = Arizona's No. 3 killer in
1850 = is now being prepared by
the State Health Departments
Tuberculosis Control Division, with
clerical assistance provided by the
Arizona Tuberculosis and Health
Association.
The study, based on statistical
analysis of a cross-section of chest
x-rays taken by the health de-
partment's mobile unit, was de-
veloped to determine the scope
of the tuberculosis problem in
Arizona. The first such project of
it's kind for the state, the study
is sampling survey of 10000
chest x-ray cards, representing
one complete. swing of the x-ray
bus around the state.
General information will be
compiled on the incidence of tuber-
culosis in Arizona in relation to
length of residence, occupation,
race and sex of the individuals in
volved. These statistics, along with
those obtained by the Maricopa
County Chest X-Ray Survey dur
ing the ensuing two months drive
should give the clearest picture
Of the tuberculosis problem in the
state to-date. .a.
The study will not be confined
to tuberculosis alone, but will
give information on other condi-
tions which have been detected
by chest x-rayS taken in the state.
Such disorders include Silicosis,
diseases of the heart, cancer and
Coccidiomycosis,. many of which
are discovered through chest X
ray and are reported by the
tuberculosis Division.
tuberculosis claimed 514 lives in
Arizona in 1850, according to pre-
liminary statistics released recent
ly by the Division of Vital Statis-
tics. The national tuberculosis
death rate 20 years ago was ap-
proXimately the same as Arizona's
1850 rate. Prior to 1910, tubercu-
losis was generally the leading
cause of death in the nation as a
whole, but by 1915, it had dropped
to third place, the rank it now
holds in Arizona. Although deaths
from tuberculosis in 1850 were the
lowest on record in the history
of the state, the foregoing figures
reveal that the disease is still a
major health problem in Arizona

RocioI Tension
In Africa


WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA)
Racial tensions in the Union Of
South Africa are increasing be-
cause. of the rapid rise in the num-
Der Of civilized natives, persons of
mixed races and Asiatics living in
the Union, according to a report
made public by the Foreign Policy
Association last Friday.
"a few decades ago individual
non Europeans looked toward par
ticipation in activities regarded
as those of civilized society,"" the
report said, adding:
"At present non-European or
ganizations by the dozen are
forming, enlisting the support of
men and women deserving and
demanding greater responsibility
and greater participation"
The National party, which pro-
notes segregation between white
and non-whites at the same time,
is growing in influence, the re-
port said.
Segregation (now called "apar-
theid") has long been the modus
vivendi (mode of living) in South
Africa" the report said, but the
present nationalist government has
systematized it more thoroughly
than the previous regime of Gen.
eral Jan Smuts did.
The report said race relations
are conditioned by :. the struggle
Of more advanced groups to re-
tain control of resources : fear
ing with reason that if all had
to share alike, the land could not
provide much more than mere
subsistence"
South Africa is not a rich land,
the report states, particularly in
terms of wealth easily obtainable
through agriculture, forestry, fish
ing or mining. Without the use
OF the chronological and accum-
ulated capital of the western
world, South Africa will remain a
poor area"
Loans from the United States
-totaling $2O,OOO,O0O and loans from
Swiss bankers, as well as permis-
sion to raise British sterling loans,
have been obtained by the union
government.
"Such loans to the Union gov
ernment and capital to develop
and maintain gold mining are not
sufficient to solve the Unions

Germans Seeking S,' : !,l
CoIored American
Mates

CHICAGO, ILL.,; The once
arrogant Nazi superman spirit
with it's doctrine of Aryan white
supremacy has disappeared from
the Germany Of today
In contrast to the white suprem-
acy" theory of Hitler's Germany,
many desperate German men and
women have, ironically enough,
turned to Negroes, once consid-
cred an inferior race, as means
of finding some measure Of hope,
faith and security" says EBONY
in an article describing how Ger
mans are seeking colored mates
in America in its current issue.
Several months ago the maga-
zine published a letter from two
German girls in Weisbaden, in
which they frankly appealed for
Negro husbands since they had
come to know many colored troops
and found that Negroes have
more. heart, more sense of human
beings" The two girls were
swamped with replies from Amer
lean Negroes, one Friedel Schel-
der, who described herself as an
actress, receiving 600 responses.
Since then, EBONY reports it
has been swamped with letters.
from German men and women =
three times as many from women
as men, likewise appealing to
American Negroes as mates. Some
of the German women realize "a
mixed American marriage would
have it's difficult moments, but are
willing to face it. although many
Germans who write for Negro hus-
bands and wives are motivated by
the ulterior motive of wanting
to come to the states, there is no
question but what many others
sincerely feel the need for love
and matrimony," says EBONY.

economic problems" the report as
serted, adding:
"The former help tide the gov
ernment over difficult, but pre-
sumab1y temporary, situation. The
latter assure the continuance of the
Unions gold-producing economy.
This economy is not a healthy
one. AS long as gold remains the
nainstay of the country there IS
little hope that the natives : the
mass of working people = will be
able to achieve significant in
creases in living standards.
"This is true because profitable
gold mining operations depend on
large numbers of low-paid work
erS.
Real progress in terms OF MAJ
terial and cultural standards must
be achieved through widespread
participation of all races in in-
creasingly higher production OF
goods and services"
The report was written by
Whiteman j. Severinghaus, who
studied the Union of South Africa
at first-hand from 1947 to 1850
as an associate of the Institute OF

SCOIy oS lCpOICCu Wy lllC Wl1CCA
from first-hand information dur
ing World War H.. sr
BY JOSEPH ISLAND
Another famous hangout for
soldiers was at 1643 East Wash
ington. 1t was a beer tavern and
known as Macs Place. Many sold
iers hung out here, and, due to
this fact, the one O'Clock busseS
that carried them back, to camp
made it regular loading place.
Then too, Mae, the proprietress,
was type of woman that had a
way with the men and seldom had.
any trouble around her place. She
dripped honey while serving the
men, and threw her womanly dig
nifty on them when they got argu-
mentatiVe.
It was after twelve o'clock on
this particular night and near
loading time. Quite lot of activ-
ity was centered around here, es-
pecially around Macs Place as
this was the only lighted place
in the whole block. The rest was
comparatively dark. A squad of
NJ. P.'s drove up, dismounted and
went inside. They began looking
the place over and soon spotted
a couple of soldiers wearing pis-
tolls. They approached them cauti-
ously and the tension mounted
An MP. asked one of them, what
are you doing wearing gum"
"None of your d business" :"
the soldier replied. "Just you try
to take it away from me-"
Another MP, nerves already on
edge, broke under the suspense
and drew his gun. The first, sens
ing what could happen in a
crowded place, grabbed his arm
knocking his hand upward. His
finger froze on the trigger and
the gun went off, the bullet going
thru the ceiling. ~r~'r
Things began happening. SO fast
it was hard to tell just what was
what. Apparently many of the dis
senters had gathered in this vicin-
ity. Shots began ringing out every
where, all up and down the block
and people began running and
ducking for cover. 1t was bed
lam as the cracking of guns
echoed through the night. No one
seemed to know where he was
shooting or what he was shooting
at. 4f
: Within three minutes the whole
district was blocked off. Police,
sheriff's Deputies, highway patrol
and military police entered the
battle. Guns blazed everywhere in
the darkness. One of the dis
senters had entrenched himself on
top of "a building and was raking
the street with light machine gun
fire. All up and down the street
on both sides, NILS, forty-fiVes,
sub-Thompsons and 38 calibres
marked simultaneously. Bullets hit
the pavement and ricocheted Whin-
ing through the darkness. They

It is not our intent to in crease the Southeastern to South western Alaska lumber rate, how ever, increased costs with no in- crease in the ability of the long, shoremen to load and discharge lumher may make it necessary for us to do so in the future.
