The specifications call for the reduction in contractual cost, he said in event one contractor is awarded more than one section of the contract.

Grew, who was ambassador to Japan from 1932-1942 held his post during one of the most turbulent periods in diplomatic history.

As early as 1932 Grew warned the State department of the possibility of war with Japan, Mrs. Harrison related. While as early as Jan. 27, 1941 there was a warning from Grew to the State department of Japanese planning of a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, she cited. Again in November 4, 1941, a little more than a month before Pearl Harbor, another warning came from Grew.

Mr. and Mrs. Broaddus Hargrave, In running their own government and determining their own destiny." Commander Bottom's address, In full, follows: A week from today an election will be held to select delegates to a Con-ititutlonal Convention which will meet In Richmond on Monday, April 30 to amend the Constitution of Virginia. I am a candidate for election as delegate to that convention to represent the 33rd Senatorial district, which embraces Elizabeth City and Warwick counties and cities of Newport News and Hampton and the town of Phoebus. I feel that, being a candidate, I should discuss the issues and potentialities of the convention and give you the benefit of my views and my position on these Issues.

They don't have much glamor to them but they do have deep significance. Basically, the issue that necessitated the Convention is the poll tax. The payment of a poll tax has been an instrument by which voting In our State has been limited or controlled since 1901, when our present Constitution was adopted. Only seven states of the 48 in the United States have a poll tax. Our General Assembly, or rather our State administration, discovered a little late that this provision of our Constitution would put a substantial part of our 250,000 service men and women in a position where, fighting for democracy and rights of people to live their lives in freedom and At AAUW Meeting R.

F. D. 2, Hampton, on the birth of a daughter at Riverside hospital, Major W. Reginaled Wheeler, a sort of open, accepted and tolerated scandal This has gone on for 44 years. The poll tax restriction was Incorporated in the Constitution in 1901 as a device for meeting the problems existing as an artermath of the Civil war.

Doubtless they were justifiable then and served a useful purpose during that period when our State was recovering from the effects of the war and the terrible experiences of the reconstruction period. But the conditions have long since been remedied that may have justified the restrictions. Since then the nation has engaged In three other wars. Social economy has undergone continuing change. The concepts of social obligation have been broadened.

The rights of people under our democracy have been extended, and the nation's political economy has been adjusting itself, during all these years, to the improved concepts of fundamental rights and basic freedom of the Individual.

John L. Ferguson, 41, and Cattier equality, would be deprived of the fundamental right, namely, to vote on the laws that affect them, on people who make the laws, and on the representatives who administer them. It is quite a paradox to have such a situation exist. Our State administration and our General Assembly were so late in waking up to the facts of this paradox that it became necessary to resort to hasty expedients. The regular session of the Legislature which convened in January 1944 enacted a stop-gap law under which the Slate itself was to pay the poll tax for the men and women in the service.

The State Supreme Court of Appeftls declared the provisions of this act Unconstitutional and so last year, a special session of Legislature was assembled by the Governor to remedy the situation. The outcome of this was an act which en-. ablcd the people, In a referendum held on March 6, to determine whether a convention should be held to amend the Constitution so that Virginians in the service would be exempted from the poll tax and from personal registration and thus enabled to vote while in the service and away from home.
