"GUARD STREETS AFT ER RIOTING

Marines, | Military Police Seek to Prevent New West Coast Flareup.

* VALLEJO, Cal, Dec. 28 U. P).—

Marines and navy police patrolled Vallejo streets against a recurrence of the rioting which involved . Negro apd white sailors Saturday and Sunday nights.

More than 400 sailors were involved in a two-hour outhreak.last night - before military police and Vallejo authorities restored order. Two Negro navy cooks were wounded, but no other serious inJuries were reported. Naval authorities at the nearby Mare island navy yard declined comment pending an investigation. Vallejo Police Chief Earl Dierkins blamed the disorders on the fact that many of the sailors—both Negro and white—were from the South. ’ “The chief cause of this trouble appears to be the fact that most ‘of these colored sailors are from the South,” he said, “and likewise most of the white sailors and civilfans participating in the disorders are from the South.” The fighting] began Saturday night with about 75 Negro and white sailors and a small number of civilians participating.

Patrol Lines Broken

\ { 3 The outbreak last night began at 3 8 p. m. when approximately 200!§

Negro sailors left the Knotty Pines,

and the shore patrolmen fired, wounding Leo \A. Shaw, 18, and George Carpenter, 26, navy cooks. The crowd broke past the navy police and street fighting began, continuing in the downtown district for two hours. During that time all Vallejo police were called to duty and 50 shore patrolmen grmed with tear gas, submachme guns and rifles were seeking to restore order

Marines under command of Col.|: M. E. Shearer, commandant of the; , Mare island marine base, manned|

machine guns at street intersections. Several of the marines encountered a group of about 150 sailors and, with submachine guns, escorted them to their ships. Vallejo authorities arrested 10 Negro sailors and turned them over to the shore patrol.

In addition to the main auditorium, there is a large recreation room in the basement. It is believed to be one of the

a girls’ school in this country. Sabbath day services are held in the main auditorium every Sunday at, 2: 45 p. m. Fire local ministers give their services. They are Dr. John B. Ferguson, pastor of the Irvington Presbyterian church; Dr. W. A. Shullenberger of the Central

FRENCH UNITY

BELIEVED NEAR

De Gaulle May Call on Giraud in Africa, Then Visit with F.D.R.

‘LONDON, Dec. 28 (U. P.).—Gen. Charles de Gaulle, Fighting French leader, and Gen. Henri Honore Giraud, new French chieftain in Africa, have been negotiating for 48 - hours on unification of all French fpjre forces and have already pledged their mutual willingness to co-operate with one another, reliable informants said to-

‘day. Negotiations were now centered on arrangements for an early meeting between de Gaulle and Giraud, and it was believed in some quarters that it might take place in the next 10 days. De Gaulle called at the foreign office today and talked with Fogler Secretary Anthony Eden, ‘who ‘had been unable to attend yesterday's conference between Churchill and De Gaulle, May Go to Africa

There were unconfirmed reports that de Gaule also would go to Washington to confer with President Roosevelt, and might be accompanied by Gen. Georges Catroux, Fighting French leader for the Middle East. It was believed that de Gaulle might go to Africa to confer with Giraud, newly elected French high commissioner in succession to assassinated Admiral Jean Francois Darlan. De Gaulle has desired a confer-

ence with President Roosevelt since

soon after the allied landings in Northwest Africa, Darlan became the recognized French African leader. The Fighting. French whom de Gaulle has led since Dunkirk never recognized Darlan but they, like Britons, seemed completely satisfied with the election of Giraud as high commissioner and commander-in-chief of land, sea and air forces.

Kept Close Silence

But de Gaulle and his associates had maintained close silence .on the African political situation in order not to embarrass Lieut. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower, commander-in-chief in Africa, and allied leaders generally. De Gaulle lunched yesterday with

Prime Minister Winston Churchill.|

Discussing the situation which had arisen as the result of Darlan’s assassination by a. young French citizen and the election of Giraud. With de Gaulle at the luncheon, was Fighting French Air Marshal D’Astiere de la Vigerie, recently returned from a secret mission to North Africa. Seeks French Unity

De Gaulle spent most of the weekend conferring with his Fighting French national committee on the question of effecting unity among all French patriot forces in Africa and elsewhere in the French empire. This would mean the’ inclusion of French leaders in’ Africa, Madagascar, Syria, the Caribbean, South America and the South Pacific in a unified French empire organization. There were indications that full adhesion of French Somaliland to the allies might be announced soon. Enthusiastic British newspaper reception of the election of Gen. Giraud showed the changed feeling here where there had always been one of open suspicion of Darlan. The welcome to Giraud extended, evidently, to British official quarters and it was forecast that a highly placed British political adviser would be sent soon. to act as liaison officer at Gen. Eisenhower's quarters, where he would cooperate with Robert Murphy, personal representative of President Roosevelt.

BRADFORD QUITS

Ralph Moore Takes Office “In Accordance With Court’s Ruling.

County Auditor James L. Bradford will go out of office Thursday as a result of a decision by Superior Court Judge Joseph T. Markey that his term expires on that day. Mr. by Ralph F. Moore, county auditor-elect. Judge Markey’s ruling was made on a friendly suit brought by Mr. Moore to have a legal determination made as to the date he should take office. Mr. Bradford said there would be no appeal.

Succeeded Ralston

A question over Mr. Bradford's tenure of office arose after he had been appointed county auditor to succeed the late Glenn Ralston, Democrat. Mr. Ralston’s term did not ex-. pire until Jan, 1, 1944, and.county Republican leaders believed a court decision to be nece to determine whether Mr. Bradford held office for another year or whether Mr. Moore took over as soon as he could be qualified. By ruling that Mr, Moore takes office on Jan. 1, Judge Markey eliminated the one-year gap between being elected to and taking the auditor’s office. Mr. Moore will serve four years and his successor will take office on Jan. 1, 1947.
