WAC CELEBRATES
DAY, CORPS BIRTHDAY;
:
I soy iy THE ARM1Y
The above is the caption
an article in The Flying
official paper of the Army
Base, Sioux City, Iowa.
concerns a Savannah
Cpl. Marian Starr, who is
tioned there. Cpl. Starr, in
the article, , as follows,,
shown sitting at her desk:
“On May 14th two
celebrations will take
Mother’s day and the second
anniversary of the women’s
army corps.
“Both a mother and a Wac,
Cpl. Marian Starr, quartermas
ter supply clerk from Savan¬
nah, Ga., comes from a family
which serves Uncle Sam 1Q0 per
cent. Cpl. Starr’s husband
served honorably as chief
boatswain's mate in the U. S.
coast guard and is now retired.
Her son. T—Sgt. John E. Starr,
Jr., is stationed at Camp Ellis,
111 .
“Col. Starr, like the other wo
men m the WAC, celebrates
the second anniversary of the
corps with no misgivings.
They pioneered rather than
lem.iin at their firesides. And
for two years they have shown
that viomen are needed in the
rrmca forces and, what is
more, still are needed in even
larger numbers —particularly
in the Air Wacs.
“When asked how she felt
about being away from home
and ner son, Cpl. Starr said:
I would like very much to be
at home, and to have my son
here, but I know we are aiding
rur country by being in the
armed forces. I believe, too,
that John is proud of me.
Since his father is no longer
In the armed services, I have
been able to do our part
in a meagre way.’
“Cpi. Star’s position as a
Wac mother is typical of many
r ’f the women in the corps.
With the coming of another
war-time Mother’s Day, war
mother?, and all other moth¬
ers all over the country, are
praying for their children and
especially for their sons to be
returned safely home.’’

S4V NEW PLAN OF THE |
STATE DEPARTMENT j
“STINKS”
Wasmngton, D. C., (NNPA)
—Messengers in the State De-
Dartment are incensed over the
reorganization plans which
are reported to have stemmed
from the New Under Sec¬
retary of State, Edward Stetti-
nius, the latest move being dis
tinctly in disfavor—the 'reno¬
vation of a men’s lavatory for
use as the messengers’ head¬
quarters.
It is pointed out that as
soon as Mr. Stettinius came in
to the department he had aii
the messengers moved irom
the’r desks in the halls of the
department, just outside the
doors of the divisions they
served, and stashed away in lit
tie rooms throughout the buil¬
ding. To many of the older
messengers, this was a distinct
blow, because it removed them
from the “stream” of activity,
and deprived them of the op¬
portunity of seeing, meeting
and knowing the many digni¬
taries who visit the depart¬
ment almost daily.
But more fundamentally,
the younger messengers resent
the fact that they are stuck
off i.’i these rooms while the
few white messengers in the de
partmnt a r e given desks right
in the divisions they serve.
Now that the department is
planning to move its political
division ino the main State De
nartment building, the ground
fiooi is being renovated to re¬
ceive the messengers. A
large number of colored mes¬
sengers attached to the division
both men and women.
The room being prepared for
them has been a toilet for
more than 50 years. “There’s
just no way to remove the onus
of it having been a toilet, no
matter how much white wash,
calcimine and disinfectant
may be used,” declared one
messenger. “The whole plan
'.stinks' to high heavens,” he
said.
An interesting sidelight oc¬
curred the other day whep the
workmen removing the corn-
modes and other fixtures from
the proposed messenger room,
placed the fixtures in the hall,
where they remained for two
days They were right at the
“diplomatic” entrance to the
department, and no doubt
made an interesting sight to
the h.gh personages who come
on official business and had to
pick their way around them to
get upstairs.
MADE CORPORAL

city this week from the Spo¬
kane, Washington, Army Aair

TO MY NEIGHBORS
FRIENDS OF CHATHAM
COUNTY, GEORGIA
I wish to advise, relevant
the recent action of
’L'lly White Republicans
Chatham county that I am
no way in sympathy with
ousting of lion, Sidney
Jones and others from
pation in the Caucus of
Regular Republican
tion cl Chatham County.
Sidney A. Jones and I
duly elected members of
Republican State Central
mittee of Georgia and on
19, 1944, I mailed to Mr.
:nv Proxy as a member of
commi Lee and authorized
to deliver it to our
and nationally renowned
mer National Committee
man, Mr« Oi>nror» b
or other suitable
Regular, so that their
might be protected when the
Ccntiul Committee met in At¬
lanta to prepare the Tempor¬
ary Roll of the State Conven¬
tion.
I consider my election to an
emp'y office by the Johnson
Lilly White Four Year Republi
can Locusts an insult added to
injmy that all Bona Fide Re¬
publicans suffered when Mr
Jones and my political com¬
rades were denied participa¬
tion m the affairs of the par¬
ty.
