LONDON BUREAU ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS

LONDON~(ANP)~Two points of the utmost importance concerning Abyssinia still await clarification
from the British government. They are: (1) the full
recognition of the independence of Ethiopia.

The mysterious attitude of the British government in treating these two peints has produced a flood
of stern rebukes in the press. One needs not be psychic
to foresee some sinister move in this deplorable situa

cratic institutions can work. Within the course of a
day, this act was enthusiastically heralded as ~Social
ism.~

Now: for the recognition of the independence of
Ethiopia, the British government is moving with lamentable slowness. A Berriedale Keith, professor, Uni
versity of Edinburgh and |!

ading constitutional au:

thority in England, wrote the following letter in the

Manchester Guardian:

~Mr. Churchil! in. May expressed the deep and universal pleasure of the British nation and empire at
~vour imperial majesty~s welcome home to your capital
at Addis Abaha.~ ~Your Majesty~ he added, ~was the first
of the lawful sovereigns to be driven from this -throne

and country by the Fascist

and Nazi criminals and now

is the first to return in triumph!

~We have asi bieity expected that long before this
the formal step should be taken of recognizing the
~mperor as sovereign de jure and withdrawing the_recognition of the king of Italy as. emperor of Ethiopia.

The second joint of discussion is~ the category of
Italian property in Abyssinia. The question was raised
in the house of commons recently by Co. Wedgwood.
In reply; the under secretary of the state for war said
that concessions of lands or minerals granted by the
Italian government remained: technically valid in law
unless and until terminated by an act of the Ethiopian state. Similarly the foreign office issued the following statement:
ITALIAN PROPERTY IN ABYSSINIA

~~This falls into two categories~private property
and state property. Private property is likely to be

property, on the other hand, will in the. course of time
expropriated, but nothing can be finally matting
reaty.
As the emperor of Abyssinia is sti'l at war with Italy
as he has been since 1935. it is possible for him to
confiscate property, but in fact he cannot confiscate
until he can legislate, and he cannot legislate until he
has been formally re-established on his throne, an event
which has not yet taken place.

Fire--Your Enemy

Fire destroys about $300,000,000 worth of property each
- year, el the average. That destruction represents complete,
~unqualified waste. The Icss to the nation can be illustrated
by a few examples.

a That ~300,000,000 would buy six; planes costing $50,000 each!

Jt would buy 600 big bombers costing $500,000 ~ach!
Tt would buy enough rifles costing $50 each for an army
of 6,000,000 men!

-. It would buy 150,000 aerial bombs of great size costing
$2,000 each!

~It would buy 2 battleships costing $150,000,000 each!
ty would buy more than 70 destroyers costing $4,000,000
eac
e.. It would pay the wages of a'most 15.000,000. private
soldiers for one months, at the current rate of~21 each!

~ That gives you an idea of what fire destroys each year
in this country. And the $300,000,000 figure covers only the
direct measurable waste. According to authorities, the-indirect waste caused bv fire is several] times?, great. Loss of
time, loss of taxes, loss of employment, loss of business ~
these are indirect tolls taken by fire,-whoe cost reaches a
terrific figure.

During the revent Fire Prevention Week, the slogan
~National Defense Through Fire Defense~ was widely pubticized. That slogan involves no exaggeration. In these days.
the conservation of sesources. labor and time. is vital to defense. Fire is the enemy of that kind of conservation. And
fire is the ever-present enemy of American security and
safety. It must be licked!

The representatives elected G. L.
Washington, of Tuskegee Institute,
president of the newly formed Aeronautical Association of Negro
Schools;and began making plans
for a national Negro college air
meet in Washington this winter.

Agreeing that the present two advanced pilot training centers at
Tuskegee Institute and at the Coffey School of Aeronautics in Chicago, were sufficient for present
needs, the coordinators and flight
instructors began work on a national compaign for~ scholarships
for Negroes in aviation.

They also drew up a program of
publicity to encourage Negroes to
enter aviation in the present pri

Institute, Howard University, West

In his written greetings to the Association, President. Malcolm S.
MacLean said, ~Tiere can be no
question that flying in all its phases, private, commercial and military,
will see an enormous development
over the next, 10 or 20 years. The
United States is not going to let
the new plants for building planes
fall into disuse and rust out after
the defense effort is over. Commercial airlines and private flying will
be expanded enormously.as will employment opportunities in these
fields. It is obvious that if we are to
get a break in this employment
market in all phases of ground
maintenance and_ repair, in
all phases of manufacture, and in
flying itself, for our Negroes, we
must use. fully the opportunity
opened up by the expansion of the
defense program.~

Miss Willa B. Brown of the Coffey School of Aeronautics, was
elected vice president of the Association. Yohn L. Frank, coordinator
of the CPT program at Hampton
Institute, was elected secretary and

G. Robert Cotton of Lincoln University, was elected treasurer. Mr.
John R. Pinkett, Jr., of Washington~s Cloud Club, will be iin charge
of the national air meet to be held
in Washington.

Conference members were taken
on a tour of Langley Field and participated in a radio panel discussion
with Dean R. O~Hara. Lanier.

How You Can Grow Long, Healthy Hair
Certain parts of the body grow to a certain size and no further, whereas,
Hair Grows always if you keep your scalp healthy. An ailing scalp causes
itching. When you scratch your scalp you make sores and scars.

HAIR WILL NOT GROW FROM A SCAR

There are no sweat glands in sores or scars. The body is given power
by nature to make certain outgrowths of skin which we all know very
well. Hair is produced by our scalp skin. Each Hair Grows from a special
little place in the true skin. If you destroy or mutilate this true skin
you may feel all right, but nothing will ever form another true~ skin.
A scar is not skin. You will never find a hair, growing from a scar or
sore. Hair grows from the cells of the hair bulbs. If you do |
not look after these hair bulbs, hair. will become brittle and break off.
