FIRST NEGRO NAVIGATORS FETED AT
BANQUET AND BOND RALLY
Pittsburgh, Feb 20 (ANP)— naviga-'
Twenty-four, colored j
tion cadets from Hondo, Tex.,
airfield, were the guests of the j
Pittsburgh Courier last week at 1
a banquet in their honor, mark
ing the first time in the his-;
tory of the nation colored men
have been trained to serve in
that branch of the armed forc¬
Highlights of the banquet
was an address by John J. Mc-
assistant secretary of war
the colored navi¬
gator-cadets here upon an in¬
vitation of the I'ourier. Mc-
predicted that the young
airmen will preform their duty
in the highest American mili¬
tary manner and added, “They
are, by the example, going to
point their race to higher a-
chievements and higher objec¬
tives. They are going to
undergo severe strains and
tests to which the most of us
have never been nor never
will be subjected, and they
will advance the interests of
their country and their race
they withstand them.
McCloy touched upon the
army’s interracial policy, its
efforts to curb the spread of
race prejudice and the neces¬
sity to adhere to a policy that
will permit the formation of an
efficient fighting organization.
“There are many communi¬
ties in which the camps are sit
uated that hold firmly to a tra
dition of separate facilities and
the absence of all social rela-
tions between the Negro
white,”’ lie said. “The army
deplored the many harsh prac-

tices to which some of its sol-
diers are subjected in some of
theses communities. Even on
army posts, I regret to say,
there have been instances of
discriminations which are com
pletely contrary to war depart-
ment policy and direction.
“We attempt to deal with
these both by general direct¬
ives and disciplinary action
when they arise. No amount
of orders or directions are go¬
ing to eradicate even within
the army deeply rooted and of¬
ten sincerely held beliefs on
which are based some of these
practices, but we can and do
deal with these abuses in the
army,” McCloy revealed.
Another feature of the ban-
quet, which was attended by
white and colored dignitaries,
was a bond rally which result¬
ed in the purchase of $1,200,01)0
worth of war bonds, said P. L.
Prattis, executive editor of the
Pittsburgh Courier who was
toastmaster.
The 24 navigation cadets,
who will soon complete their
navigation training at Hundo
Army airfifield, were accomp¬
anied here by their white of¬
ficers and crew members witfi
whom they will work.

“Bataan” brings thrills,
ma, and stark realism in the
most compelling story of the
last stand battle of Ameri-
can heroes in a Philippine Jun-
gle to the screen at the Star
Theatre.
With a cast headed by Rob
ert Taylor, the story deals with
thirteen men whose nationali¬
ties make them a literal cross
section of American life. They
are detailed to blow up a bridge
and fight a delaying action
against the Japanese to cover
the evacuation of Bataan Pen-
insula. The mission means cer-
tain death to all.
Among them a plot develops.
Taylor, as the sergeant, recog¬
nizes a fugitive criminal in
Lloyd Nolan. The human rela¬
tionships of the doomed thir¬
teen are enacted against the
thunder of shell fire and the
criminal lays down his life a
hero. Sprectacular is the blow¬
ing up of a bridge the Japs are
trying to repair. Taylor is the
