IF CHURCHES TAKES
FIGHT
National Convention Of All Races Has Been
Called Church Leaders In Several Other
Countries, Have Asked The Council To Define
Its Attitude To Existing Policies

Capetown, South Africa (NNPA)
The Council of South African
Churches has taken the leadership
in the fight to compel white South
Africa to relax the white supren1-
acy policies of Prime Minister Dan
iel F. Malan.
A national convention of all
races has been called by the coun-
Gil to discuss these policies. Church
leaders in several other countries
have asked the council to define
it's attitude to Malan's policy.
In the call for the national con-
vention, the council said confer
ence of representative of the three
groups comprising South Africa's
population was the only hope OF
promoting peace and harmony.
The estimated population OF
South Africa is 100000, of whom
9.250,OOO are Africans or natives,
2.5OO,OOO are whites or Europeans,
and 250,0OO are Indians or "Asi-
atics." The Africans or natives In.
clude 100000 "colored," who are
of mixed racial stock.
The Indians are mainly the de-
scendants of laborers brought into
the country by white sugar plant
ers, who were unable to persuade
the Zulus to take up this kind OF
labor.
Throughout the Union Of South
Africa rigid segregation is enforced
ON the buses, in the motion pic
ture theaters, and in the schools.
Education is compulsory for white
children but not for native and
Indian children.
No native is employed as a me-
chanic. They are not permitted to
drive even the tramcars and buses
which are restricted to non-white
passengers. African building work
ers, by law, are restricted to nd
tive areas.

The World Today

WASHINGTON, DIFF you're
nearing 65 and thinking of retir-
ing, you may save yourself money
the rest of your life by first talk
ing over your case at the nearest
Social Security Office.
That goes for two kinds of
workers: People who are en-
ployed and the self-employed.
Some of the self-employed, as
you'll see near the end of this
story, have a special problem of
their own.
Here are a few points to keep
in mind.
No one retiring before July /
will ever get Social Security
pension larger than $3.50. Since
wife's pension is half that of
her husband, the maximum for a
couple retiring before July l will
always be S102.75.

London Sailor
At Riviera

The French Riviera may be the
home of millionaires and bathing
beauties, but it is also a home
away from home for the men
serving aboard the light cruiser
USS Salem, such as Donald E
Sheldon fire control technician
third class, USN, son OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Homer Ford of 1919 South
Main ST., London, Ohio.
Sheldon, who entered the Ma
val service Oct. II 1913, received
his recruit training at the Naval
Training Center, Great Lakes,
Ill.
Before entering the Navy,
Sheldon was graduated from Lon
don High School and was en-
ployed by Western Electric Co.
The French Riviera is the
Mediterranean home port of the
Salem which has been on six
month cruises in the Mediterrean-
can as a flagship for the U. S.
Sixth Fleet.
These colorful cruises have
taken the Salem to Italy, Greece,
Algeria, Turkey, the Island of
Malta and the British Naval Base
at Gibraltar. The Salem's itin-
erary has also included the
Panama Canal Zone and ports
of call in the Caribbean Sea.

man is Maj. Ted Silva, who soon
will complete his training. The
major, who is 80, piloted a BIZ
on So combat missions in Europe.
Asked why he volunteered for the
jet bombers, he said:
Because they're new. l sup
pose the reason anybody goes
into the Air Force is because he
likes to do new things"
/ went out with Ted on the
field to watch a few landings.
The bombers are desperately pre-
cious today because there are so
few, and they are handled as if
they were big delicate glass eggs.

One after another they skimm-
ed down as gratefully as gulls,
for all their bulk. Soon after they
touched ground, a tail chute shot,
opened and slowed them to a
halt.
The chuteS save wear and
tear on the brakes and tires. )"
Ted explained. Without them
they might burn out a set of
tires in a single landing. The
pilot has to put that chute in
place himself before each take
off. If it doesn't work, He's to
blame" .~.
None of these highly skilled
jet pioneers who have survived
one war knows what the future
holds. But are aware that even
now the BIZ would be mighty
useful in Korea, where the slow
er B-29s no longer can make
daylight missions in the face of
enemy jet fighter strength.

The jet bombers-they fly at

Cattlemen Hear
DR.. Sutton Here

Over 40 Madison county beef
men attended the Beef Cattle
meeting Wednesday evening, Feb
rauary 13, to hear DR.. "Scotty"
Sutton discuss beef nutrition and
beef research.
A few of the main points that
DR.. Sutton made were that high
quality roughage is very impor-
tant in beef cattle rations. Ex-
periments at Wooster show that
molasses fed with poor quality
roughage will improve the rate
of gain, but good quality rough
age without molasses will make
the same or better gain, with the
same grain mixture. He men,
toned that is was the mineral
content of the molasses and the
good quality roughage that sti-
mulate the bacteria action in the
rumen of the COW or the animal
which makes for higher digesti-
bility of the roughage feed He
outlined the research program,
stating that experiments had been
started to determine the value of
beef bulls on the rate of gain of
their progeny. He also stated
that tests were being made on
the quality of carcass of bulls
VS. steers. He emphasized the i'm
portance of corn cobs in the beef
rations, as far as economics in
gain was concerned.

Answer to Question No. L:

Prematurity leads to more in
FAINT deaths than any other one
cause. However, more prema-
ture babies are being saved,
because we know more about
how to care for them. Most
hospitals now have incubators,
and many communities have
specially equipped ambulances
and even airplanes to transport
babies born at home premature
ly to the hospital quickly. In
the past fifteen years infant
mortality from all causes has
been cut in half in the United
States.
Answer to Question No. 2:
The average human body con-
tainS about five quarts of blood.
1T you lose more than one of
those quarts at one time, your
