Oswaldo Aranha, Welles' co-part NO DISCRIMINATION HERE The entire enlisted personnel of the 758th Tank Battalion (light), Camp Claiborne, is composed of colored soldiers. As the Armored Force School, Fort Knox, there are two colored companies.

Approximately 500 enlisted men. The average rate of pay in these companies is higher than in companies made up of white enlisted men, which shows that the colored companies have more grades and ratings than white companies. The number of colored students at the Armored Force School is based upon the number of colored soldiers inducted for service in the Armored Force. At the Armored Force Replacement Training Center, the Fourth Battalion is composed entirely of colored soldiers. On Jan.

13 the regular weekly radio program know nas "Fort Knox Parade" was given by this battalion in its recreation hall. There have been 2,368 colored coldiers trained at this Replacement Training Center since June 3, 1941. There are now over 1,000 colored men in the 4th Battalion. Six hundred fifty of these soldiers are in their last week of training. Many will be used as replacements in the 758th GHQ Tank Battalion.

Others will attend courses at the Armored Force School. There are 177 third-class specialist ratings, 128 fourth-class specialist ratings, open for the 305 of the cooks and bakers company. Within this group of 2,368 who have attended the Armored Force Replacement Training Center, there were 178 college graduates and 29 school teachers. At Fort Knox, the memory of a Kentucky Negro soldier, Private Robert H. BBrooks, who while on duty with an Armored Force battallion comprised of men from Kentucky, Ohio, Wisconsin and Illinois, was killed in action'near Fort Stotsen-burg, Philippine Islands, December 8, was honored by naming a new parade ground Brooks Field.

In discussing this honor, Maj. Gen. Jacob L. Devers, Chief of the Armored Force, said, "Brooks was poor. His people were share-croppers.

He worked as a clerk in a small grocery store. One might think he had nothing to contribute to America. And yet, in less than nine months after being inducted into Federal Service, he gave the greatest gift that any man can make to his country. He gave his life." ures at vital Bio parley; V. 5.

Hitler and Hirohito will have Undersecretary Sumner Welles and Brazilian Foreign Minister Aranha largely to thank. These are the two men who have carried the ball for a united Pan-American war front, with President Vargas giving them potent 100 per cent support in the background. Strangely enough no two men could be more dissimilar. Oswaldo Aranha is an ex-gaucho from the cattle country of Brazil, accustomed to appearing at horse races with two revolvers strapped to his belt, and equally at home around a roulette table or a dinner in the presidential palace. other envoys.

There will be no luxuries at all and many seeming necessities will be foregone or produced in bare minimum quantities. At this moment, we are spending about 25 per cent of our national income for war purposes. By the end of the year we will, if the plans go through, be spending as much as 50 per cent. What that will mean to the civilian standard of living is easily seen.

CLIPPING THE WORLD BY CLIPPER Not that any more evidence of the shrinking size of the world was needed, but rote the flight of a Pacific Clipper all the way round the world's middle home from the Pacific war zone. Instructed to make their way home by the best available route, her crew simply flew on around the world the long way, touching five continents and making 18 stops under 12 flags. And when they brought the Clipper into New York's La Guanlia Field, the crew simply said, "It was routine we just Hew by the book."
