Military Probe Of Fatal Scrap IHREE SOLDIERS KILLED IN EIGHT AT EORT 'IHX. NEW JERSEY FORT DIX. N. J . April 3.—(UP) Military authorities invoked a board of inquiry today to investigate a battle between Negro soldiers and white military policemen last night in which three soldiers were killed ind five were wounded. The battle occurred across the narrow street which divides the Foil Dix military reservation from the adjoining town of Pointsville. The Negro soldiers were firing from their oarrAcks on one side of the street; the white military policemen from business houses and the sidewalk on he Pointsville side. The dead were Prix’ate Manie W. Strouth. Honey Camp, a., a military policeman, Private Isaac W. Brown. Henderson, Tenn., Negro, and Corporal W. E. Hall, Negro. The wounded were all Negroes. The fighting lasted for 15 minutes, starting at 9 a. m. and was sporadic. Little indiscipline was involved. Cert Herbert D. Forrest, executive officer of the post, and several officers, droije up in staff cars and ended it with no difficulty. Stopping in the middle of the street, they ordered the white military policemen to cease firing and commanded the Negro soldiers to come out of their barracks. The orders were obeyed instantly. No arrests were made. That will come, if justified, after the official inquiry to determine which soldier or soldiers were responsible. Trial by court martial will follow.

DANTE PLANNED AT MASONIC
TEMPLE
Masons and members of the Eastern Star are planning a big dance at the Masonic Temple here next Wednesday nigl\t. April 8. Those in charge of the affair stated today that all Masons and families and O. E. S. members and families are invited.
BESTstorekeeper f ever know was a fellow named Sam Abernethy. Sam’s specialty was to take over some run-down store that somebody else had given up as a failure. ’I hen Sam would turn it into a gold mine. ‘ But the most important thing of all." he used to say, “is to remember who's Boss!” ‘‘\ou may think you are Boss of your business . . . hut you’re not. The Public, your customers, are the real bosses . . . and you’ve got to run your business the way they want it.”
That little statement of Sam’s made a big impression on me . . . particularly since it certainly stemed to work so well in Sam’s case. And Sam isn't the only one. I ■ec the beer industry feels the same way . . -. certainly, the brewers believe in running their business the way you and I would like to see it run.
Folks like us like to see beer ■old in dean, quiet, decent places.
