J. WATSON ^ You're going to be hearing a lot in the coming months about a new transportation policy for the na tion. Much has been written and said already but there’s lots more to come before Congress gets down to the actual voting. The arguments you’ll hear will be confusing but don’t you get upset—a lot of congressmen are pretty confused, too. That was the impression newspapermen and others took away from the opening congressional subcommittee hear ings on the proposed policy. To help you understand a little better maybe it might be a good idea to outline what’s involved— and what may happen. This controversy—which prom ises to be one of the hottest issues before the next Congress—got its start last April when the Presiden tial Advisory Committee on Trans port Policy and Organization sub mitted its report to President Eisen hower. The report proposes a lot of changes in the present policy gov erning rail, truck and waterway transportation. Some of these pro posals have been incorporated into several bills the Congress will con sider come January. The issues really came into the open for the first time when a con gressional subcommittee, headed by Rep. Oren Harris, Arkansas, conducted a week of hearings to discuss the report. When all was said and done it was pretty clear that the nation’s railroads favor the report and pro posed legislation and the nation’s truckers and waterway barge oper ators oppose it • One of the most interesting statements at the hearing was Sec retary of Commerce Weeks’ dec laration that our transportsti^t sys tem is the world’s best Why, then, one Congressman asked, should we change it ? / Joe Louis. Is Satisfied Chicago—Joe Louis, reminis cing over his ring career in the November EBONY, says, “I’d do the same thing all ovter again without changing any part of my past life.” There would be no changes in his life, says Joe, no changes, that is, except he would not divorte his ex-wife Marva, who is now married to a Chicago physician. Joe, writing for the 10th anniversary issue of EB ONY, states that his divorce is the one thing he will always re gret. As for his bad investments, spending lavishly on his friends, being a song-and-dance man and high living he says, “People seemi to think that if I had a sec ond chance I’d hang on to more money and make wiser invest ments. Maybe so, but it’s easy to look back and say he did this or that wrong after everything has happened. But even though I can see where I made mistakes I often say to myself ' ‘Joe, you didn’t do too badly.’ ” When writing about being free with his money Joe says, “I fig ure I wasn’t wrong sharing with my friends. It wasn’t that I was a soft touch. It was just that I enjoyed having them around. I believe that if things had been the other wray around, my friends would have done the same for me.” Joe reveals that he has four in comes which make the chances slim that he will ever be down and out. The incomes are $15,000 as boxing director for the Inter national Boxing Commission; he earns two per cent of the gross at the Moulin Rouge in Las Veg as; he is a partner in the Joe Louis Milk Co. in Chicago; and he is vice-president of a Detroit insurance company.

It will be presented to a revival group by the mayor of Phenix City, Alabama. “I took my first drink in Phenix City," the old artist explained, “and in time I became an acute alcoholic right there. My family shunned me in Columbus, Georgia, right across the river from Phenix City, and fn time I hit bottom. Now that the Sin City is cleaned up. I’d feel proud to paint them a dozen Smiling Christ portraits to replace the Jt old gambling-saloon signs.” The old artist, serving life as an habitual criminal after his fourth felony conviction (buying liquor with worthless checks), has continuously painted Smiling Christ portraits since the night, five years ago, he dreamed the Lord smiled at him. He gives them with* out cost to churches and religious groups requesting them. He prefers to remain anony mous on account of his children. In the above photo, L. F. Chapman, warden of Raiford Prison, watches the Old-timer put finishing touches on two "Smile” paintings, one for Phenix City, the other for Lillian Roth who visited the artist some time ago.
