Col. Nasser gave this account
of the battle for the Sinai:
The Israeli attack was launched
at four points: In the south
against Ell Kuntilla and toward
Suez; in the center against Abu
Ogueila. straight toward Is
MALTA, the midway point on the
canal; in the north against Rata
and Ell 'Arish, cutting of the
GAIA Strip; in the south from
Elath on the Gulf of Aqaba
against Sharm FL Sheikh
(Sherm).
The invasion forces advanced
rapidly in the Southern Sinai
October 80 because there were
no forces there to stop them, but
the Egyptian Air Force went into
action the next day and halted
the unopposed advance.
The Israeli forces reached the
main Egyptian positions at Abu
Ogueila the night of October 20,
but failed to overrun them in
an all-night attack.
THE second attack on the
following day also failed. The
Israelis lost 8 planes, 40 tanks
and suffered many casualties.

raids on enemy airports in Israel.

In Phone Booth

Motorists who run out of gaso-
line or have flat tires and call for
assistance from outdoor telephone
booths will no longer need to guess
where they are.
The Ohio Bell Telephone Com
pany started today to place an
easily-read, metal street address
plaque in approximately 500 out
door telephone booths i'll the Cleve-
land area. For example, a booth
along the Shoreway will have a
plaque giving its street address.
Each plaque will be mounted inn
mediately above the coin telephone
in the booth, directly in the line-of-
sight of the caller.
''We feel these street locations
will be a real benefit to the public.
They are being installed in re-
spouse to numerous suggestions
that have reached US" said Harry
Anthony, northern division public
telephone manager. "A resident of
Cleveland in strange part of the
city or travellers who have need
to make a call, and particularly in
night emergencies, will be
able to tell exactly where they are
located -
About month will be required
to get all of the plaques installed
and they are being placed only in
outdoor booths at those locations
which would be difficult for the
telephone user to identify, An

ington and w. e. Dubois engaged in the great debate as
to which course was best for the Negro. The latter contended
that the classical, liberal arts education was the thing, but
Booker I. held his ground, envisioning the untold opportun-
tiles for his race in shops and factories, the farms, the class
room, and an awakening to the endless possibilities at hand.
What must have struck him most deIcately was the actual
experience of newly freed slave busying himself with the
study of latin who could not even read English. Both APP
had their place, but one had to come before the
other.

BOOKER 4. WASHINGTON STAMP

i INDEED an honor to have the Post Office Depart
,nent of the United States issue a commemorative stamp for
Rocker /. Washington. The honoree has long taken his place
among those outstanding Americans to whom everyone PontS
with pride : and his honors have been legion.
BORN / N LOG cabin the picture of which is repro
duced on the three-cent U. S. Postage stamp, Booker Wash
ington lived to become a disciple of peace, goodwill and I'M
derstannding, a leader not only Of his people, but Of all men.
If was he who long ago saw the need to raise the economic
level Of the newly freed slaves, SO that they could be an
asset to the region and the nation : an asset in highly skilled,
capable manPower.
HEADING FOR Hampton Institute as a youth, his en-
trance examination was to clean a room. This was more I'M
portant for the display Of character than tor any academic
BACKGROUND, and he passed his test by cleaning so well that
nota speck Of dirt could be found anywhere. The lady teach
er who made the assignment knew at once that here was
character upon which much could be built.
THE STORY of Tuskegee Institute is known to all
school boys everywhere, how with a handful Of raw students
and an old discarded chicken house Booker I. Washington
built an institution which served the South and the nation
and which has a plant today running into millions. Seeing
his worth to education, with its emphasis on the value and
honor of work with hands, Harvard University conferred an
honorary masters degree upon him to the diSfaay and dis
satisfaction of many, who were later to be proved wrong.
BUT BOOKER 7. WaShngtons vision came cearest
in his major address at the Atlanta Exposition where he adj
moniShed his hearers to let down their buckets where they
were. In other words he pleaded for unity and understand
ing and the unrestricted employment Of the great manpower
resources which were at hand Even the most skeptical South
erners listened and agreed that here was something worth
needing
