Vito Marpan tonic (ALP, of New York chain pioriing tits cause in the house ar.d Sen. Dennis Chav z iDi of 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.’.

Eastland’s that, lS.‘iu:-galese troops raped 5,090 German women in a local subway. First of all there is no sub- 1 wav here and nu rep0lt has beea , made oi a mass rape in the hug? unfinished tunnel that is capable of holding 12.000 to 15.Q00 people Lt. Gen. Augustin Lion Guill- aum and j h f French Wrtmwi office Sl „ r n in aom ' ‘“ ' ' lar ‘ d ' s char§?es agaianst the Sen,galese tr °°P s "irresponsible ! and The fantastic place, - he said, the 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. 3RD BATTLE STAR AWARDED HIM 3102nd Qm Service Company, France — Private First Class John L.
