PL BLIC 'The RAILROAD YIEN’S CLUB located at 24th and Miami has been leased to the VETERANS of WORLD WrAR II namely the AMY ETS Post No. 2. It would be exceedingly opliiniistic to hope that this venture will escape the tongue wagging, knocks and gossip of the citizenary adjacent to this locale. But we are certain t a. this organization will function smoothly despite all this, because they have assist ance from “UNCLE SAM”. In the past several groups have endeavored to promote and establish recreational facilities which would offer a clean, decent place of enjoyment, which so far are sadly lacking in this vicinity and in oi:r city.

This week the OMAHA GUIDE takes great pride in announcing the opening of the AMVETS Post No. 2 and wishes to congratulate this group of industrious young men on their fortitude in an attempt to better the social living, and community conditions and to foster legislation which will contribute so largely to our way of life. From time to time we will publish more fully the complete program and aims and purposes of this fine organization. The aim of any true EDUCATION is not to discover and express our selves and our PERSONAL DESIRES, but to know the other fellow, to try to understand his DESIRES and to learn how to live with HIM in HARMONY in this confused and much crowded world. REMEMBER to PATRONIZE our ADVER TISERS4 AMERICAN COUNCIL ON RACE RELATIONS Citing what is charges is gross neglect of the rights of minority veterans under the GI Bill, the American Council on Race Rela tions today issued a call for a na tional emergency conference to investigate and take action on the problems of Negro, Japanese Am erican and other minority veteran Tiop orficers and veterans’ re presentatives of more than 50 na .ional organizations have been .a.led to Ned York City to meet n all day session Friday, April 5 j at the Willkie Memorial Bldg.' The conference will hear the results of j the American Council's survey of Veterans’ Information Centers in 21 major cities across the country Delegates of organizations includ ing the Urban League, the Jap anese American Citizens League, the NAACP, and the Southern Re gional Council will also present their estimates of the manner in which provisions of the GI Bill the being withheld from minority veterans. Cartoonist Bill Mauldin will ad dress the delegates at a luncheon and the business sessions will be conducted by Charles Houston, vice-chairman of the American Council who recently resigned from the Presidents Fair Employment Practices Committee Results of the Council’s survej will be presented by Vincent Mal veaux, former combat sergeant with one of the famous mixed bat talions in Germany. The action of the American Council in calling the emergency conference is the .first organized attempt to consider the plight of minority veterans on a national scale. A. A. Liveright, executive dir ector, said the American Council would seek joint action from all the organizations present to carry the charges of discrimination and inadequate facilities to every gov ernment agency involved. An ef fort wll be made to establish grea ter cooperation between local br anches of the national organiza tions, so that treatment of minor ity veterans at the community In formation Centerg can be improv ed. , The American Council’s survey revealed that whole areas of the GI BILL, such as apprenticeship training, are being denied to min ority veterans in many commun ti®s. Negro veterans are given few opportunities to use their army acquired skills as mechanics, ele ctricians, etc., and in some instan ces the$e same skilled veterans are being trained at government expense as porters CONGRATULATIONS TO THE AMVETS, POST No. 2 fc te fc State< Coal Co. ★ ★ —22ND & NICHOLAS— Phone AT» 2.133 CONGRATULATIONS TO THE AMVETS, POST No. 2 IDEAL Bottling Co. ★ ★ 911 NORTH 24TH WE. 3043 Congratulations To The AMVETS Post No. 2 THOS.

[Nebraska Leader j Named for Chicken Breeding Program Appointment of Dent Z. Hol , comb, secretary, Nebraska Poultry Improvement Association, Grand , Island, as state chairman of the Chicken-of-Tomorrow Committee opens the way for Nebraska poul try men to com pete with breeders from other states in the nationwide effort to pro duce better meat - type chickens. Goal erf the three-year breeding p r o gram is to de i «**•»* rhTwaiicryieM I at least 10 per cent more meat i in relation to bone structure, said I D. D. Slade, Lexington, Ky., chair i man of the national committee, | in announcing Holcomb's ap , pointment. The breeder who pro . duces the best example of a meat ■ i ier bird will receive a $5,000 cash ; I award from A & P Food Stores, i i whose officials initiated the pro j gram. Other awards will total ^>3,000. , Objective of both the Nebraska i and national committees is to I stimulate production of chick i ens that will grow more econorn It icaily, Slade pointed out, anc jt which will hr.\ o a greater per [ centage of meat to bone, large [ proportion cf white to dark mea k and a broader breast. The na i tional committee is made up c ^ representatives of all major pair , try associations and the U. S Department of Agriculture. “The contest is open to ever1 ! I poultryman,” Slade continued i I “but it will require rn.oro than jus I the selection of an outstanding bird and sending it :n to be ' i judged. Each breeder must star, ' with from 50 to 300 baby chicks of ; known origin and develop a strain 1 or type of chicken that can be re * produced in commerical quanti I ties. Only by such a program of | development can poultrymen as \ sure the nation's consumers that I chickens of the future will be tne I source of superior meat ” I CLEMEISCP ASKED IS SOLDIER RAPE CASE New York, N. Y_The NAACP through Special Counsel and As a'stant SDecial Counsel Franklin H. Williams, submitted to the Se cretary of War a petition for cle mency in behalf of Dallas Ramsey 36399712, a Negro soldier who was sentenced to life imprisonment in Santa Monica, Calif., on March 23 and April 2, 1944, for an alleged breach of the 92nd Article of War by a General Court Martial. The petftion pomted out that the verdict was against the small weight of the credible evidence m the case, and more specifically that the complainant, a white wo man, proved by her incoherent, inconsistent and contradictory te stimony that she was unworthy of belief. It was stressed that there i nothing in the record beyond the complainant's own confusing stor to corroborate the charge of rape*. It was charged that the conviction of defendant was grossly unjust; that he was denied a fair and im partial trial; and that he was not' There’s a Thrill in Bringing a Crook to Justice Through Scientifto CRIME I DETECTION I have taught thousands of men and woman this exciting. 1 l profitable, pleasant profession.
