J—The block ing by „nU-Negro elements of a state-sponsored school for migra tory workers’ kids here was pro tested by Rowland Watts, acting national secretary of the Work ers Deiense League. The school board had promised use of its buildings, but reversed itself after a "citizens protest rally" which ace’ised Negroes, 98 per cent of the workers, of LCOWTlMCMrAt. f' fOA — • Do take only what you’ll need and then you won’ need a vaca tion fom your vacation.

Watts wired state o fficials: | "Urged you back up original de_ , cision of local school board to re ' sist discrimination against these | children.’' The activities of the WDL are well known here in Cranbury. It is still recalled how the League in 1940 won $9,000 damages for seven migratory workers who were assaulted by a mob. Say you Saw ft advertised in The Omaha Guide COST OF RATS HIGH Meet Skulky, the rat. You might as well get better acquainted with the filthy gray ; destroyer. You and fellow Oma i hans are supporing him and his family—at an estimated cost of $4,400,000 per year. City-County Health Director Dr. L. L. Fatherree estimates that Skulky has about 200 thousand equally filthy relatives in Omaha. Multiply that by $22, the Depart ment of Agriculture’s pre-war es_ i timate of the value of food eaten and property destroyed by a rat in one year. The total is $4,400,000. garbage main fare Skulky’s country cousins are ' even more destructive, Dr. Fath- j erree said. They eat grain, whily i j Skulky dines largely on garbage. | Dr. Fatherree urged prompt ac. ! J tion to stamp out Skulky and his ! kin. Omaha s rat problem “can continue to row unless something is done about it,” he said. Omahans don't bother Skulky much. In fact, they often give him food and lodging by leaving the covers off garbage cans and al lowing trash to accumulate in the back yard or the basement. He is free to ' gnaw on food stuffs, destroy property, spread disease and produce more rats. may menace health Dr. Fatheree says Skulky and his relatives are a “potential health menace.” They spread polio, typhu7-ini}sctious jaundice ' and other sewage and filth-borne diseases. How can Or:alians make things ! tough for Skulky and his brood? Dr. Fatherree says it will take a "well organized community wide program devoted entirely to rat control.’ He wishes some civic group, “strong enough to tackle a tough job and stick with it,” would volunteer. To control rats, you have to be smarter and better organized than they are. Dr. Fatherree said. . People aren't always able to meet those qualifications. CAN WE GET ALONG WITH RUSSIA? Zerita Thrower (Peace Caravan) Since we are now living in an atomic age millions of people know how too tragic another war would be. When the Town Meet ing of the Air asked its vast radio audience “Does our foreign policy lead us toward peace or war?” Every 7 out of 10 repons- j es de dared that the United States policy was leading toward war. The question in everyone's mind now is—How can we keep the peace ? Although Russia entered the war very late it was she that helped to end the war quicker than it would have been. It was 1 she that broke through the Ger man lines. The entire world re joiced then and praised Russia, all of a sudden bang! the tables ' turned and we have turned a gainst our former allies. If we ' can get along with her during a war we can surely get along with her in the peace. Russia is without doubt a great power. She emerged from the I war as one of the victor nations. ' Although she has been denied the atomic bomb and warm water outlets, she is annoyed with many fears. Russia knows what war is. Her fear grows out of anguish and suffering. Dur ing this war she lost 15,000.000 men. Tl^g United States only lost I a quarter of a million of men. Much of Russia’s soil was de vastated and her people left homeless and helpless due to the Nazis invasions. , Now Russia is seeking to ob tain control of the Straits of Dardanelles which is the gateway to the Black Sea. We can take for granted that Russia, feeling more than ever that it is a great Power will ask for the prere quisites of great power on a basis of equality with Britain and the United States. If Britain and the United States show an mer est in the internal affairs of Rus. sia’s neighbors (Bulgaria and Rumania) Russia sees no reason why he shouldn’t show some in terest in the affairs of Latin America or Greece. j This sort of game of tag could j ■go on forever with grow i no-1 danger to the World Peace. The ] only way to stop this is to have all nations conform to the prin ciples of the United Nations. PvtWoods, Continued From Page I, attorney, and Carlos Ramos, ex ecutive secretary of the Philip pine Lawyers Guild who uncover ed most of the on-the-spot evidence being presented at'the trial and who flew back to this country from the international Lawyers Conference in Brussels to Le on hand when the proceed ings opened. Former star witness for the prosecution, John Hicks, was so vague about the events which took place on the morning of the shooting that the prosecutor was forced to impeach his own wit ness. Hick told a story at vari ance to the talk he had only several days previously with the prosecutor. It was Hicks who testified that he had seen Woods lift Patterson, heard him say “wake up ’’ and then saw Woods shoot his tentmate. Hicks, at the time of the shooting, was in his tent 100 yards away lying down. The stories of two star witness es for the prosecution were torn apart in cross examination by Goodman with regard to the confession Woods had allegedly made. Two Criminal Investiga tion Dept, agents who claimed they took the confession several days after the shooting could not agree to whether Woods had us ed the word "murder,” one re calling that he hadn’t paid much attention to the conversation and wasn't quite sure what Woods had said. There was no such testimony by him in the trans crip of the court martial. Important in determing wheth er the shooting was accidental or murder, as contended by the pro secution, would be the distance from which the shot was fired. However, Dr. Bray O. Hawk, who performed the autopsy upon Pat terson and whose testimony was accepted without question at the Manilla trial, under questioning admitted that he knew very little about the highly specialized field of ballistics and other relat ed matters, that he could not qualify as an expert in medico legal matters as were involved in this case. Identified by Jack Waddy, an exsergeant who served with Woods’ company, was the bullet tornnet which covered the cot of Patterson at the time of he shoot, ing. The holes in the net refute the testimony of Hicks who had stated that Woods lifted the net before shooting the sleeping GI. The trial is expected to last for another week. Confidence was ex pressed by the Lemas Woods De- , fnse Committee of the Civil Rights Congress, that on the basis of the proceedings so far, the soldier would surely be freed. U. S. OUTPUT HALF OF TOTAL Indusrial output in the United States has jumped from 23 to 50 per cent of the world total dur ing the past 75 years. This isr e ported by World’s Business and Guide, the export business pub lication. The formula responsible for this sharp increase is more pro ductive power, more tools and machinery, plus technical know how. An American factory worker now uses six thousand dollars worth of equipment and four horsepower of electrical and mechanical energy several times that of the world average. Showing how the formula pays off in higher living standards, these statistics are given: The United States, with 7 per cent of the world’s population has 80 per cent of the automo biles in the world and 60 per cent of the telephones. It has 54 per cent of the refrigerators and 42 per cent of the radios. Current factory wage rates in the United States are almost double thos« of Canda, the next highest, and approximately five times that of Czechoslovakia and Russia. One of the immediate causes of current economic ills, the publi cation says, is war damage to in dustrial facilities. But a more basic reason is the failure of world manufacturing to keep pace with advances in tool and machine efficiency. As a result, machinery has moved into the No. 1 spot among United States exports and de mand for American technical know-how is equally high. Mrs. Jacqueline Pruitt, who his been ill in St Joseph’s hospital is convalescing at home, 2436 Grant it This is the only way for a strong world government which has got to come in the very near future.
