VOTE FOR THE ALL PURPOSE COLISEUM
T11K all-purpose coliseum, which is to be voted on tomorrow,
Saturday, August -J5, will not only uiean much to Suu
A ouio as a whole, but to the Negro constituency as a group.
It will provide accommodations for events that, in the past,
i Antonio could not bid for, simply because no facilities
e available. Because of San Antonio's nationally known
utation for its interracial comity, its tolerance and lib-
litjr, n ia tile 0U€ city in the state that Negro Tcxuns want

THE DANGER OF OVERREACHING
XE of the most harmful effects of group thinking is
tendency to create over-reaching ambitious within t«
group itself. That is, the group may start with a good i<l<^

content. They have tasted ti l

At SAATSC
By WILBER B. MILLER
The command has been given to
cease fire! The end of the world's
greatest conflict has arrived with
the Japanese acceptance of uncondi-
tional surrender. With the victory,
the conquerors assume a great re-
sponsibility to the world. The
XTnlted States, as one of the major
Allies, is assuming her share of
this responsibility.
But much remains to be done.
Do not lend au ear to rumor, gos-
sip, and false statements. These
false rumors can be just as harm-
ful to reconversion and the peace
as they were to the war effort. For
example, a rumor, started a few
days ago, to the effect that war
bouds would be frozen for 10 years,
paused a wave of bond cashing
which deprived the victims of
savings which could have been used
to carry them through the difficult
times ahead.
A vicious rumor that all Negroes
with war service Jobs would he
placed on 15-day leave was disturb-
ing to many of our employees.
Some convincing "loud mouth"
caused dozens of our workers to re-
sign. some of them with two or
three years' service. Pay no atten-
tion to such rumors as these.
Should it become necessary to re-
duce the personnel at Kelly field,
it will be done in accordance with
established civil service rules and
regulations. Therefore all workers
should continue to work until laid
off aecordtug to these established
rules.
It is believed that fully 83 per
Cent of the Negroes employed nt
this installation could l>e retained
in some phase of work and it is to
im* remembered that the lowest paid
job on Kelly field averages $100
monthly.
According to Brig. Gen. George
H. Beverley, there have been no
substantial reductions Iu the war
worker force at Kelly field, al-
though work stoppages have hocii
ordered in certain selected activi-
ties for a 15-day readjustment
pe riod which began on Monday.
