Ceylon Leader Jayewardene's adj
dress to the conference carried the
most meat, In our opinion, to the
Japanese. Jayewardene told the de-
legates that the Asiatics have al
ways regarded the Japanese as their
leader In their battle against for
eign elements (shades of Asia for
Asiatics"), that the Japanese and
other Asiatics are bound together
by similar cultures. and that the A
states, including the japanese, are
deeply rooted in Buddhist ideals.
And, 1t was pleasing to note, Jaye-
wardene put over the only spiritual
thought In the conference when he
cited how Buddhism spread from
India into Burma and China and
finally into Japan and quoted Bud

dor spender and we got along quite
famously; at least we were in agree
ment on certain phases Of the last

no words in firmly stating that the

traced the Japanese military ma

Asia, we, having worked On Mid

we understood the Australians. But

mately indicted into service. This
is not the important thing here,
nor is it our concern whether
Willie goes to an army camp now
or remains free to go to a base
ball training camp next spring.
What is important is the piling up
of statistics showing, or tending
to show Negroes as illiterates.
1t will be recalled that during
the last war the figures were stag
gering, and these figures were
used often to the disadvantage of
Negroes, even after the war was
over.
1t is hard to believe Willie Mays
could not have passed a fair
Army aptitude test, and there
might be some who would ques-
ton our position in raising the
point. Or, they might feel we are
trying to push Mays into the
Army. Whether Willie Mays goes
into the Army or stays out would
seem to be far less harmful than
the injury to him and the whole
race which he would inflict by
adding to the mounting statistics
that Negroes are dumb too
dumb to pass a simple aptitude
test to get into the Army.
Willie's high school principal
and his classmates, as we'll as his
teammates on the NewYork Giants
must be terribly embarrassed!

Straight Ahead
By Julius J. Adams

NEW YORK, Nov. 5. (G)-Just
what the Army's aptitude test is,
we really wouldn't know, but it
surely must be a rigid one, and
indeed, must have been made much
harder that that used to measure
the ability of prospective draftees
in World War II. This Korean con
flict evidently is being fought by
aristocrats and geniuses.
What brings this up is the re-
cent, at least temporary, rejection
by the Army Of Willie Mays,
New York Baseball Giants star
center fielder and Rookie of the
Year." He "flunked" the aptitude
test, was the reason.
Naturally, we would think an
aptitude test would have some
thing to do with a persons in
telligence, which does not neces-
sarily have anything to do with a
mans formal educational attain
ments. We saw this clearly demon
strated in the last war when they
drafted Rocky Graziano and Joe
Louis, neither of whom had had
much education nor was either
any too articulate, although Rocky
was pretty noisy. But Willie Mays
This reporter met the young star
several times off the playing field
and he seemed to be a rather
bright young fellow. The entire
sports world knows of his exploits
on the field where he displayed
alertness, intelligence, co-ordina-
ton and rare skill. Maybe the
Army examiners had never heard
of Willie, who is a high school
graduate with a good record OF
scholastic attainments.
This is a report that Mays sta
tus is not yet settled, and that
here is a possibility that he viii
be given another test and ulti.

Bomb Scare
Directed AT The
.Stork Club

NEW YORK, Nov. 5 (INS)-
The Stork Club was the scene
early today Of New York's sixth
bomb scare within a week.
1t was also the third warning re-
ceived by police in the last two
weeks that the famous club was
going to be "bombed."
Police emergency and bomb
squads rushed to the Bistro after
receiving an anonymous call from
a. booth at Pennsylvania station.
Following a short search, police
said that the threat was unfound-
ed. as a precautionary measure,
one patrolman was left at the
scene.
The undisturbed patrons were
unaware Of the search.
The district attorney was inves-
tigating a charge by Stork Club
owner Sherman Billingsley that
someone forged his name to a let
ter purportedly commenting on
the barring of Josephine Baker
from the restaurant.
Billingsley told district attorney
Frank Hogan yesterday he had
nothing to do" with a letter
bearing his supposed signature on
a letter to an anti-discrimination
group.
Miss Baker, famed American
born Negro entertainer, allegedly
was barred from the Stork Club on
Oct. 16.
Text Of the Billingsley letter:

New Federal Tax Seen First
Step 10 Lequ|ize Gambling

NEW YORK, Nov. 5. (G)-Harlem gamblers and q
number of legitimate business men this week seriously
bordering the meaning of the new law requiring book

The feeling in some circles is
that the new law is in reality the
first step toward legalizing gamb-
ling and a number of the, legiti-
