can Legion convention may not be wholly impressed with |
the war department’s new’ draft plan.
Joying the show put on here by the army and navy air| forces. 8ky parades all out of proportion to mere convention spectacles are over -the city several times a day. Hellcats spell out N-A-V-Y in miles<long formation. The army {is parading great! bombers and roaring jets. Here on the ground-—seeing to it that the Legion digests the aerial] implications of modern warfare— are Gen. Carl Spaatz, army air force chief and his predecessor, Gen. Ha Arnold, describing htmselt as a farmer, Seek Equal Rank
Gen. Floyd Parks, chief of army's! qs 11s "Stelle policies--which prob-

Leon Johnson, leader of the great Ploesti raid, and other stars of America’s. sky raiders are ready to answer questions, The burden of their argument is that the air force should be a full member of the military establisht, equal in rank to the army round forces, and the “navy. They say that while they are not interested in having the carrierborne air arm of the navy, they hope the Legion will use its influence with congress to put all land-based aircraft under one command. Convention response to Secretary of War Patterson's plea for Legion support for the war department's basic training plan was polite but mild, Differ om Training The delegates might be interested in the Patterson plan, but Legion Commander John Sgelle intends to see that they stick to the Legion formula which differs from the department formula on the fundamental point of the period for basic training. Mr. Patterson wants six months, the Stelle group four, Mr. Stelle found himself in another hot spot at variance with high policy when Gen. Omar N. Bradley, veterans administrator, made it plain he aws not impressed by previous Stelle barbs. Gen. Bradley said that he intends to make the veterans administration
But they are en-|
an agency for all the veterans and | not a Legion-dominated bureau, He' let Mr. Stelle have -both' barrels, concluding with: “What we have heen able to accomplish during this year in the veterans administration has been achieved not because of, but in spite of, your national commander.” Not So “Buddy-Buddy® Thus the relations between the | war department and the VA on the one hand, and the hierarchy of the | Legion on the other, can hardly’ be {called buddy-buddy.

ably will be inherited by the leading contender for new commander, | Paul H. Griffith of Pennsylvania. | Immediately after, Bradley cop-! cluded his address, Mr. Stelle, his face flushed, announced he would be present today ¢should anyone want openly to debate this subject on the floor.”
HOLLYWOOD HOUSING BAN DRAWS PROTEST
HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 3 (U. P.).—| Academy award-winning Actress! Hattie McDaniel and 40 other prominent Negroes today appealed to the United Nations charter to! keep their homes in once-exclusive West Adams Heights, now known to the Central ave. Negro set as “Bugar Hill.” The state supreme court took their case under submission after 10 minutes’ debate yesterday. The hedring was asked by eight white property owners who last Dec. T lost a lower court suit to enforce racial restrictions in the district, once the home of Los Angeles’ highest society. The Negroes, including Actress Louise Beavers and Blues Singer Ethel Waters, argued that the | Uinted Nations charter protected | them from racial discrimination.
