P. z. J. Van Vuuren, leader of
the Nationalist party minority
group in the City Council, said last
week it was disgrace" that Ash
atics and colored people should be
allowed to occupy seats next to
whites. He predicted it would cause
considerable friction and demanded
that the municipality put stop
to it.
"Non-whites take the first seat
they can find and whites resent it, !"
he said.
w. H. Harrison, chairman of the
transport committee of the City
Council, said, however, that any
additional segregation would raise
transport costs and cause higher
fares. The state-owned railway
buses allow whites and non-whites
to travel together although separ-
ated by movable partitions.

that our first-class colleges should
be granting honorary degrees to
men who really are not deserving of

There are many men Of color like
Elmer Carter who have suffered
and fought to break down the bar
riers of prejudice and who really
deserve being honored much more
than some of the men who have
received honorary degrees from our
colored colleges in the past few
years.
Men who have fought for and re-
ceived recognition in their parti-
cular fields for the up-and-coming
colored youth of America are really
the deserving ones. Branch Hickey

Instead of specializing in one
particular branch of the Army,
such as Infantry, the new program
will be called General Military
Science and will be designed to pre-
pare an ROTC graduate for sever
al branches of the Army.
Under the present system, af-
ter cadet has finished two years
of basic ROTC, required by most
colleges for non-prior service stu
dents, and accepted for senior
ROTC his last two years, he be-
gins Immediately to prepare for
the branch of service he selects.
There are many drawbacks to
this system, such as an overflow
of officers in certain branches of
the Army as Quartermaster, Sig
nal Corps and others. Choices of
service now at Tuskegee will de-
pend on the students ROTC class
standing, his major subjects in
school, his leadership abilities,
classification tests and interviews
by Regular Army and College
representatives.
The Department of the Army is
keeping close watch on the schools
over the country that are trying
this new system and hopes to
eventually convert all ROTC units
to the new program if the Schools
and personnel involved think it
worthwhile.

Anderson Predicts
A-Bomb May Never
Be Used in Any War
Navy Secretary Holds
Fearful Weapons May
Act to Deter Their Use
Special Dispatch to The Stor


QUANTICO, Va, Sept. 19.-
Secretary of the Navy Robert B.
Anderson predicted today that
atomic and hydrogen super wea-
pons may never be used in any
war.
1T may we'll be that the pres
ence of such fearful weapons may
act as a deterrent to their use
by either side" he said in
speech at the Marine Corps
schools here.
Should the super weapons
thus cancel themselves out-and
I suggest to you that eventuality
is entirely possible-then the
emphasis would be Immediately
be restored to the capabilities of
conventional weapons as the
basis for the military decision"
he declared.
Raises Realistic Question.
"The increasing power of the
atomic bomb suggests to me that
the need for improvement of the
more conventional forms of war
fare may we'll become greater
than less as we approach abso-
luteness in mass destruction
weapons" he continued.
Il submit to you that we are
nearing the time when the pos
session by each side of such
weapons will raise the realistic
question of total mutual deStruc-
ton to no effective purpose.
Through it We can lose our way
of life and our enemy can lost
the objectives of his aggressive
policies.
THE advantage in such cir
cumstanceS would then go to the
side best able to attain it's OBJ
jectives through conventional
military means. And the attain
ment of the military objectives
of a maritime power such as ours
will almost certainly involve
amphibious operations.
He said that it would be fool
1sh to predict the kind of war
fare of the future, but added:
Strategy Chooses Weapons.
"I say simply that we must
be prepared for any kind of war
and that we must not allow our
fascination with particular Weap-
ons. no matter how bizarre, to
obscure the fact that all weapons
belong forever to the subor dinate
sphere of the means. The STRAIT
egy chooses the weapons. net
vice versa"
The Secretary added that it
was our hope and prayer" that
an enemy confronted not only
with the loss of his objectives,
but his own destruction as well,
would forswear for an indefinite
period the use of physical vio-
lence of an instrument of policy.
"If, however, the narrowness
of the concepts of those few
evil men who determine the des-
TIMES of the enslaved millions
should again loose the curse of
armed aggression upon the world
it may well be that the presence
of such fearful weapons may
act as a deterrant to their use
by either side" he said.
