New Mexico carrying the bad
in the senate Others, both
Democrats and Republicans in
varying numbers, helped to
the FEPC issue squarely before
the members of the house
where the item was approved
on Thursday afternoon 133 to
116 on a teller vote.
During the heated house de¬
bate Rep. William L. Dawson of
Illinois and Adam C. Powell of
New York, both Democrats,
took the floor in support of the
item.
.The house appropriations
committee by a large vote re¬
ported an amendment to the
war agencies bill on Wednes¬
day but in such language that
termination of the agency
would have resulted. A ruling
from the general accounting of¬
fice was sought which confirm¬
ed this fear, and immediately
Marcantonio insisted that the
appropriations committee go
back into session ______, and revise ^ its
language. This was done and
in spite of last minute efforts
by the southerners to cripple
the agency and put it out of
business, the item remaained
intact.
'Malcolm Ross, FEPC chair¬
man, called it a “'sheer impos¬
sibility” to cover the field of
discrimination in industry on
this amount of money but ad¬
ded that ‘‘we'will do the best
job we can on $250,000. We
will have to take the most mer¬
itorious cases and do what we
can with the others,” he said
We will have to redouble our ef
ferts on half the staff.’.

that, lS.‘iu:-galese troops raped
5,090 German women in a local

was
capitol of the Nazis’ Association
pf Germans abroad, an organi¬
zation which was devoted ex
clusively to spreading discord
among the allies and among
the peoples of each ellied na¬
tion. He wondered whether
Sen. Eastland had been “a be¬
lated victim of this association’s
propoganda.”
'Investigation revealed that
this city was captured by a
large body of Tunisians and
(Moroccans, who fomed the
great majority of French invad
ing forces, and that there were
only a few Senegalese among
them. The Moroccans and Tu¬
nisians are perhaps the ‘Sene¬
galese” Sen. Eastland was talk¬
ing about in h's senate tirade.
Max Weber. German chief of
this city, admitted that there
, , been . reported . , of ,
cases rape
but that the number never
rtached 5,000. He said that
oply 1,500 cases were on record
and these involved white
French troops as well These
cases were singly or in pairs
The people of Stuttgart he said
have no resentment against
Negro American soldiers.
We’ like them because they
arc jolly and sing and laugh, 1 ’
he remarked. “Our children
are always playing with them.
The only time we fear them is
when they get drunk, but to tell
the truth, it Is always right to
fear drunken soldiers, is that
not correct?”
American troops are now in
the process of taking this city
over from French occupation
lorces, a fact which seems to be
extremely agreeable to the local
citizenry.

VETS SHOULD
KEEP UP THEIR
INSURANCE
WASHINGTON, (ANPi Lo¬
cal boards should advise a vet¬
eran, even though he is partia-
ly or totally disabled, to con-
tinue payments on national
service life insurance until ap-
plication for waiver has been
filed and approved by the Vet¬
erans administration, the Na¬
tional Selective Service publi¬
cation says. Premiums then
will be refunded for a period
not to exceed one year before
date of filing.
War department surveys
show that 6f percent of those
in service intend to keep all or
part of their insurance. Com¬
mercial life insurance compan
ies urge continuance of this in¬
surance and are advising serv¬
ice people on policy options and
arrangements.
