It is driven by a motherly woman of 60-odd, attired in a house dress. Another passenger gives her an address and asks casually 11 she knows how to find it. "I certainly do," she answers tartly. She does, too. Not only that, but on arrival she tells him what door of the building to enter to get to the office he wants to go to, and when he disagrees and says no it's another door, she waits until he wanders out with a defeated expression and tells him: "I told you to go to the other door in the first place." These' Washington cab drivers! They've- always been Individual ists of the first water, and now that their ranks are being entered by motherly women in house dresses they're even more so. THE big Issue in Washington at the moment is the FEPC the Fair Employment Practices Committee, which seeks to make black and white equal in America by law. It Is one of those Issues that Involve a lot of oratory and arc more concerned with vote get ting than with the practical solu tion of problems. There's a 'lot of justice in the1 theoretical purposes of the FEPC. Whatever else may be said on the subject,' the colored man Is cer tainly entitled to work on a plane of complete equality with the Ivhite man. If he has the same skill, the same adaptlbtlily and the same degree of application to his job, he should be entitled to the same wages. Common sense and fundamental fairness tell us that in no uncertain words. But when you try to FORCE such things by law, you run into a lot of human nature. THE time will undoubtedly come when there will be no discrim ination in employment In America because of color. The time may come, in some distant generation, when white and black will mingle without prejudice. But It's a fairly safe guess that lliese things won't be brought about by a hard and fast law that says It has to be NOW. (It seems probable, incidentally, that the FEPC will be stalled off instead of settled now. The most likely solution is an appropriation that will enable the controversial committee to drag along for an other year without money enough 1o do 'much more than barely exist.) C EN ATE ratification of the San J Francisco charter, which Is the big show for next week, Is ubout as near a foregone conclusion as anything can be. The opposition illUL J1U9 UCT-II lliuniil headlines Is TOKEN opposition. The vote against it is expected to be negligible. There is none of the fierce Idealism that marked the league of nations fight in the senate, Nobody has any delusions. The charter just looks like something tiiui uuuni iu ut.' given a uihi Besides, the conviction is strong here that the VOTERS are for it. That always goes a long way in Washington. Vandals Garrote Cat SEATTLE, July 18 (AP) Vandals garroted her pet mal tose cat and hung ft to a fence to die, Mrs. F. S. Craven of Hunts Point reported to the sheriff's office today. Her husband is a high navy officer at Pearl Har bor. Australia was named "Aus- trlalla del Esmrilti Snnto" In honor Austrian-born Philip III of opain, and In translation the WATER SAFETY RULES By Charles V. Stanton Three drownings in as many weeks in the Roseburg area should serve to impress upon our minds the importance of observing water safety rules. These tragic deaths undoubt edly -will frighten many parents into denying to their chil dren the natural enjoyment to ;be afforded by water. Doubt less some parents, while trying to save their children from similar fate, will instill into youthful minds a sense of fear which can be overcome only with great difficulty, if at all. Parental training with relation to water safety should not be directed to creating fear, we believe, but, rattier, -should be turned to building realization for the necessity of caution. There is an affinity between small boys and running water. It may be a most Junior to wash behind the nearby, it is certain he will mmg, even tnough it means caught in the act. Water is dangerous, yet .our rivers, lakes and beaches af ford us opportunity for unlimited recreation. The danger, however, results principally from failure to observe well established rules of caution. .-i.- In nearly every drowning accident we can recall the source of the tragedy lay in yiolation safety. One of the principal the practice of children wading or swimming without a'; capable swimmer present. This year's three local tragedies resulted from just such situation. Another frequent cause of drownings is that of physically unfit persons taking greater chances than their condition will permit. In recent years there have been several accidents in Douglas county where men and boys with weak hearts died from attacks induced by over-exertion or shock. There have been sev eral fatal accidents to waders who, unable to swim, failed to select safe water and stepped off ledges into deep water. We believe every child should be taught to swim at the earliest possible age. Thereby he has the best insurance against drowning. Today's children have far greater op portunity to loarn to swim thirty years too soon." Swimming schools are conducted in Roseburg annually.- In carried its swimming courses Insofar as we can recall, there has never been a fatal acci dent during any period of supervised swimming in Douglas county. Supervised swimming now is being conducted as a part of the Roseburg Recreation program. In: addition to learning to taught NEVER to go in the water, even to wade, unless a capnble swimmer is present. Any 6wimmer, child or adult, should know his physical limitations and avoid over-exertion. Water should be avoided when soort after eating. MX cKtrt' can bo taught to the water, he can have all of which water makes possible with but little danger to himself. We pity the individual who water. Such fear is not natural from some incident or outside sioned by an adult. A group of persons, old enough to know better, visited the Roseburg swimming hole sport of ducking some of the from intense heat. If those persons could be identified, they should be arrested and given the most extreme penalty the law. provides for disorderly conduct. It is entirely pos sible that one of the youngsters who was a victim of their hazing may develop a fear phobia and will never learn to swim. As a result he may drown, through accident, in later life.., Fear of the water can be overcome in a child through efforts of a trained instructor. As he learns to swim he will lose his fear of the water and will obtain a measure of confidence which may save his life in some future emer gency. There is a vast difference between caution and fear. Every possible effort should be used to prevent children from becoming afraid of water. But, on the other hand, a spirit of caution must be instilled ff wc are to avoid accidents of the kind which have saddened our community in recent days.

Battleship Nevada Often Battered, is Still Top Fighter WASHINGTON, July 19 (AP) Veteran of two wars, the bat tleship Nevada absorbed damage from a flaming suicide plane and iive hits from an Okinawa shore battery but stayed in the fight. The navy today told the story of the actions which occurred as the famous old ship was operat ing as part of a formation as signed to obliterate enemy In stallations on the island. The kamikaze struck before daylight March 27, ; causing 60 casualties. Despite her damage, the Ne vada was back in action within four hours. The next week, on April 5, while still pounding away at Jap anese airfields, shore defenses, supply dumps and suspected troop concentration points, a coastal battery opened fire. The Nevada, which cracked the toughest installations the nazis oould provide at Normandy, CheiAourg lld. sojatycrn .Franco,, slugged it out for 18 minutes. Durflig the engagement ' the enemy fired an estimated 21 shefls, five of which registered. They killed two men, seriously injured eight, ana slightly WQuna-, ed eight. " Effective Retaliation Experienced gunners of the Nevada got off 71 rounds from her 14-inch main battery alone, and when the shooting was over, the navy said "the target area resembled a gravel quarry after a weeks blasting." The Nevada s damage was re paired overnight, and the next morning she was back on the firing line. In the kamikaze attack, the Nevada's anti aircraft guns assist ed In splashing two of the attack ers before a ' Var dive bomber streaked out of the haze apparent ly bent on striking the bridge. Light machine guns scored hHs on the plane, but too late to stop her. Marines Die at Station Marine gunners of the 20 mm. battery, however, managed to "saw off" the piano's right wing, which fluttered into the sea. Its course diverted, the plane crashed into tlie main deck alt beside a main battery turret. The seven marines who saved the ship's superstructure died at their sta tions, their guns barking until the second the plane stuck.

Pearl Harbor At Pearl Harbor, she was the only capital ship to get under way during the attack. About iu minutes alter the Japanese hit, she cleared her berth unassisted and started down the south chan nel. Heavily damaged and draw ing water, she was beached to prevent jamming the channel. After permanent reDairs and modernization at the Puget Sound, Wash., . navy yard, she returned to the fleet In time to participate in the reconquest of tne Aleutians in May, 1343. She later was refitted at the Norfolk, Va., navy yard, and arrived in European waters in April, 1944, to support the Normandy landings. . . She returned to the Pacific late last year after reconditioning again at the Norfolk navy yard. Her first new assignment was at Iwo Jima.
