Gomez Ferrelra and representatives
OF the press. l regretted that |
could spend only "a hours in this
territory if 1 was to have time for
several other countries on this
three -and-a-h month tour. Ev-
eryone was most cooperative in
helping me see and do as much as
was humanity possible in so short a
time.
l started promptly at lunch by
having an intensive discussion with
Mr.. Simpson about the economic
and political developments of this
land where some six million people
live in an area about seven times
the size of the State Of Ohio Ac-
cording TO the Portuguese method
OF administration, metropolitan
Portugal and the Portuguese over
seas territories form one political
entity. Thus, natives who can at
tain so-called European" standards
of education and way of life can,
If they desire, become "aSSimilated.'
They thereby receive full Portu-
gueSe citizenship, with all the at
tendant rights and duties. However
the vast majority of natives still
live in their primitive rural settle
ments and are under the paternal.
but strict, control of Portuguese ad-
miniStratorS.
The mainstay Of Mozambique
economy is agricultural and from
its produce the United States buys
large quantities of nuts and oil
seeds. We sell them agricultural,
construction and mining machinery,
automobiles and buSses, steel mill
products, petroleum products, saw
mill products. engines and turbines.
Later in the day We toured the
capital city of Lourenco Marques
and its port, through which much
of the goods for the gold mines IN
South Africa is funneled. We con-
tinued our discussions of economics
and politics at dinner that evening
with Acting Governor General DR..
Juvenal de Carvalho.
Early the next morning We drove
some 80 miles up the coast to see
a native development project al

OF comparison, our own State Of

900 active registered nurses-and We
still need more!
Our drive back to Lourenco took
Us through fertile farm country
along a river where We saw some
of the richest banana plantations
in Africa. Back at the U. S. Con-

the work and detectives OF this
United States outpost. Here, as IN
each of the American installations

furthering the best interests OF the
United States. l am always happy
to be able to express the American
peoples appreciation for their ef-

Loan Ceiling Boost
To Be Considered
Virginia Council

RICHMOND. May 4 P.-
Whether an increase of the $500
ceiling on small loans in Virginia
would be a good thing will be
discussed at a public hearing be-
fore the Virginia Advisory Legis-
lative Council here May Is.
The VALC will also consider
other aspects of the small loar
law which may be brought to Its
attention. The hearing will be
in the State Senate chamber at
7:30 pm.
The next morning at IL
o'clock the VALC will hold a
public hearing to consider GER
tain aspects of the Virginia State
Ports Authority.
Gov. Stanley requested both
studies.
A council spokesman said TO-
day it appears that many bor-
rowers of small sums go to
more than one small loan COM
pany to obtain money. and they
must pay the present rate of 2la
per cent per month on the I'M
paid balance to every lender
from whom they borrow.
1t has been suggested. he said
that a higher ceiling on small
loans, with a reduced interest
rate on that portion above 5000
would effect a considerable saw
ing for many small loan Dor.
roWers who do not have access
to loans from some other type

J. N. Gownder,
D. G. Teacher

Joseph N. GoWnder. So, re-
tired Spanish teacher at Cardozo
High School who was fired as
a non-citizen in 1912 and later
rehired after he was naturalized,
died Monday at his home, 1908
Euclid street NV.
Mr.. Gownder was born in
British Guiana and was educated
there. He came here in 1922 and
was appointed a teacher at
Cardozo. At that time he was
listed as an Oriental by immi-
grafton authorities because his
parents had been born in India.
Therefore he was barred from
citizenship by the Oriental Ex-
clusion Act.
In 1941 he was told by the
Board of Education that Con-
gress had directed that no SAL
airy be paid teachers who were
not United States citizens or
who had not made application
for citizenship. He was dis
charged in 1912 after 20 years
service at Cardozo.
Later, after Congress exempted
East Indians from provisions of
the Oriental Exclusion Act, Mr..
Gownder became citizen. He
was reinstated to his old job in
1850, a year after he sued in
Municipal Court asking for res
toration of his job or return OF
his retirement contributions. The
court awarded him retirement
pay credits of $2,822.
In 1851 he suffered a stroke
and retired from his teaching
job. He had had heart condi-
ton since then. ST.
Between his teaching jobs, Mr.
Gownder was a chiropractor here
and was an analyst and trans
lator for UNRRA.
Mr.. Gownder is survived by his
widow, Edith G., and a grand
son, Jose Torres Gownder, of the
home address.
Services will be held at ii am
Friday at st. Georges Episcopal
Church, Second and u streets
NV. Burial will be in Lincoln
Memorial Cemetery.
