South Afrieo's
Race Policies

New York; AMP - Strong
denunciations against the racial
policies Of the Union Of South
Africa were voiced last week here
by the Right Rev Richard A
Reeves, bishop Of johannesburg as
he condemned South Africa's seq
regation patterns.
Terming South Africa's segre-
cation policy "a complete mega
ton of all that the Christian
church faith asserts about Cod
Bishop Reeves stated, church
people in the us. ought to realize
the magnificent assertion of St.
Paul that in the church there can
be neither Greek nor Jew, cir
cumcision nor uncircumcision, bar
barian, Scythian, bond nor free. +"
Opening a national preaching
tour at this citys Cathedral (St
John the Divinel under the aus
pices of the American Church
Union, Bishop Reeves pointed out
in South Africa there are those
who take such a strong view Of
the impossibility Of members Of
various ethnic groups living to-
gether that they demand total
separation between black and
white"
He continued, Il cannot believe
that Christians would be morally
justified in bringing it about, even
If it were practical
He declared, Il want to make
the church's stand on segregation
clear. The church's opposition
bears a theological interest and is
not Of a political nature"

Earthquakes Damaged 10 New Buildings at Adak, Says Returning Officer

KODIAK, Alaska, lR m An off cer who returned Wednesday from Adak Island said the recent Aleutian area earthquakes caused severe damage to about 10 du- plex residence buildings which were under construction.
 He said the contractors were insured.
 He said the main damage to per- sonal property at the Navy in stallation was breaking of glass ware on shelves and tables in living quarters. There was short age of water for time because of broken lines, but they soon were repaired.
 Heat and electirec service was interrupted because they depend on the water supply.

fBy THE ASSOCIATED PREss'

SAN FRANCISCO, R = Seis- mologists insist that earthquakes do not come in punches, but heavy tremors in widely separated parts of the world have made a lot of large black headlines in the past three weeks.
 Furthermore, they have occurred in quick succession after three years of what the experts call below normal period of quake activity.
 The sudden furry began March with a quake in Jamaica which rated as the heaviest there in a half century. On March the San Francisco Bay area, sitting on top of the worlds best known earthquake fault, got mild to moderate shaking.
 A big quake hit Greece on March 8, destroying 20 villages. The next day another one visited that country, which reported one per son killed, scores injured, $50 houses wrecked and 10000 people homeless.
 The Aleutian Islands got the most violent treatment. On March g a temblor about the magnitude of the one which destroyed San Francisco in 1906 convulsed the Aleutian trench, long, deep gash in the bottom of the north Pa cific Ocean.
 Although this quake centered well offshore, the islands of Adak and 'Umnak were badly shaken. It generated a 7-foot high wave at Adak This wave travelled southWard at 50 miles an hour and caused damage in Hawaii, 2,000 miles distant.
 Since then the Aleutians have had at least IA major aftershocks

New Insect Repellent Promises Great Relief To Alaskans This Summer

A chemical with tongue tWister name will shortly become a summer password to Alaskans seeking the best available insect repellent.
 Dlethyl toluamide (pronounced di-ethyl toe-lu-ameed) is an or ganic chemical that U. s. De- partment of Agriculture scientists say is the best all-purpose insect repellent developed so far. It should be on the market this spring under differtn commercial names. Shoppers can read the label to see if diethyl toluaamide is present.
 The new repellent can be safe ly- aplied to skin clothing or fur. It successfully protects wearer against mosquitoes as well as bit ing flies, fleas, chiggers and ticks. The USDA scientists cooperated with the Army in the research for a long-lasting repellent for persons who work outdoors.
 Diethyl toluamide has pleas ant lotion feel" the USDA men say. Earlier repellents applied to the skin tend to soak in or rub off. Diethyl toluamide is at least twice as long-lasting as next best repellent used in the "wipe test"
