BELGIANS LACK FRENCH GAIETY

ANTWERP, Belgium. — Tuesday we left Brussels and less than an hour later arrived in Antwerp, a distance of about 30 miles. One would scarcely believe two cities so close together in the same coun-

try could be so different.

Antwerp is old and shows it in narrow Streets with grass growing between cobblestones in many places, hundreds of people wearing wooden shoes and centuries old cathedrals and buildings. Houses are built of stone With sharply slop ing roof* cf slate, and joined togo her. They show what we call the “Dutch influence” and there

British units are constantly moving forward tc unhinge the northern anchor of the Siegfried Line, which seems emminent. I talked to a British Tommy who was in Belgium in 1940, but was forced back to Dunkirk by the Nazis.

HOLLYWOOD. Oct. 2. (ANP) — Lena Horne fans who have recently been voicing complaints that MGM has been hiring her out for stage and night club work are watching the sensational case of Olivia de Havilland. famous white movie star. Actress de Havilland is without an availability certificate despite a stirring appeal by her attorneys that she was being kept in “virtual slavery” by Warner Brother^ studios. * In taking under submission an appeal of her contract termination, the district court of appeals denied Miss de Havillands’ request for an injunction against Warners, which, she said, had served general notice on the industry not to employ her during their litiga-

tion.

“If you can’t work for anyone

numerous suspensions of the actress. Warners appealed the case and since then has assertedly blocked her from work at any other studio. Lena Horne, who is also under a seven-year contract, is not known to have made any public complaint, but began deploring the fact that she must do stage work when she first appeared at the Orpheum theatre. She headed a big bill nightly with Jimmy Lunceford’s band and other topnotch artists drawing capacity crowds. She then filled an engagement at San Francisco, then to Chicago for new triumphs at a ^famous cabaret. On the other side of the discussion, others in the know declare that since musicales such as Miss Horne is featured in are infrequent, she would have long periods of idleness, thus losing prestige and publicity. They also declare that in all she probably realizes more from her MGM arrangement than she would if free lancing.

ARMY ABANDONS JIM CROW POLICY, REPORT AVERS

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5. (ANP) —The War Department is announcing this week its retreat from the segregation policy earliei established in connection with the redistribution centers for men returning from overseas under the rotation furlc-ugh system. Efforts were zealously being made over the week-end to conclude certain undisclosed details prior to making the announcement. and the hope was that the statement would be available on

Monday.

Indicating the type of change that has been made is the statement of Walter White, NAACP secretary, who said upon emerging from a conference with the President last Friday that it rep-

WASHINGTON. D C. tXNPA) — president Roosevelt conferred with I a group of three representative Negroes on Friday in a conference described as “non-political" granted to’discuss certain racial probI iems and welfare. It was the third I audience this year given by the President to Negro groups and in- ' dividuals. The conference was originally sought by A. Philip Randolph, president of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, chairman of j j ; the Marclt on Washington Movement, and co-chairman of the National Council for a Permanent FKPC.

Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Qhurchill, Mr. Randolph wanted to discuss the pending legislation for a permanent FKPC in the hope of getting some action before Congress took its election recess. He did not attend, however, the conference held Friday, saying, it is reported, that he saw no point j n it since Congress at ready had recessed. The establishment of a permanent FEPC was discussed at the conference, nevertheless, by the three leaders who attended. They were Dr. Channing Tobias. Walter White, and Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune. Tin; President is reported to have pledged his support to such legislation, saying he invented the FEPC, He was reported ! also to have expressed his approval and promised his support of efj forts to get the House Labor ComI mittee to take immediate action j on the hill for a permanent FEPC without further hearings so the measure may be presented to Congress as soon as it returns. The group also discussed with i the President pending legislation | to make it a federal criminal offense to attack a person wearing * the uniform of the American armed forces. The bill, S. 1127, is to amend an already existing law making ’t a Federal offense to- assault or kill certain Federal officers. The present law, however, does not include members of the Army, Navy! or Marines. The amendment was propcsed by the War Department and approved by the Department of Justice. It has passed the Senate, and is pending in the House Judiciary Committee. Tlie President was reported by the group to have pledged his support of this Uigislation. White pointed out to reporters at the White House after the conference that this legislation is of particular concern to Negroes because there have been numerous , assaults upon Negro soldiers in the South. “The last killing of a ! soldier named Spicely in Durham, ! N. C.” he said, "who was shot and ! killed by a bus driver, was tried i in a state court and the driver acquitted in 2X minutes.”
