Agree Not to
Discriminate
I WASHINGTON, March 27-flV
The committee on lair employment
practice reported today that four
west coast ship yards had notified
it of their compliance with an or
der against discrimination in em
ployment The notifications, the announce
ment said, came from the Western
Pipe and Steel company and a Con
solidated Steel corporation" (ship
building division), both of Los An
geles, and the Oregon Snip Build
ing corporation and Kaiser Com
pany, Inc., both of Portland. No
report has been received from a
fifth company, the California Ship
Building corporation of Los An
geles.
All five of the companies have
been involved in lengthy negotia
'ions with , the committee. The
principal complaint alleged that
qualified Negro workers were dis
criminated against by a closed
shop contract, and by refusal of the
International Brotherhood of Boil-
Makers, Ship Builders and
of the Igreatest victories of this or
any other war."
The Germans, he said, decided
to stand west of the Rhine in the
face of overwhelming Allied at
tacks and! were destroyed. That, he
added,: was the greatest error since
the enemy's Ardennes offensive
last December and the German de
cision to stand and fight after the
Allies broke out of the Normandy j
beachhead last summer.
The general remarked that Nazi
mentality: apparently dictated the
decision ta stand and fight every-
wnere, ana said ne expected this
formula to be continued.

But Enemy Not Briven to
SurrertderlSaysIhie
- By Edward Kennedy ; . V'f fS'.
PARIS, March 27-ifl-General Eisenhower asserted today ! that
the German army "as a military force on the western front is a whip
ped army with its lines broken by one of war's greatest victories; but
there was no hint that the enemy had been driven to the point of sur
render.
I am not writing off this war,"
he told a press conference on his
return from the front. "No one
knows what the German will do in
his own country, and he is trying
hard."
Warning against expected any
race for Berlin, the supreme com
mander said that despite the tre
mendous Allied victory, in the
Rhineland "that does not mean a
front cannot be formed some
where where our maintenance is
stretched to the limit."
"My honest opinion," he contin
ued, "is that there will be no ne
gotiated unconditional surrender.
There will be an imposed uncon
ditional surrender.
Will Take Over
"Between the Allies in the west
and Russia, we will take over Ger
many. Whether the Germans know
it or not, we will know it is un
conditional surrender."
Eisenhower authorized only the
direct quotations given in this dis
patch.
Smiling and confident, Eisen
hower said the day would come
when he could tell correspondents
that all organized resistance on
the western front was broken, but
he was making no forecasts of
when that would be.
Allied advances eastward will
be limited by the ability to sup
ply them, Eisenhower said. How
far his armies air 'v have gone,
he could not say because, as he
explained, he had been away from
headquarters for three or four
hours.
Need Rail Bridges
While bridges are being thrown
across the Rhine in 10 hours, it
takes time to build railway bridg
es, and the lack of rail communi
cations will for the present limit
the eastward advance, Eisenhower
said.
The Germans are evpected to
establish a new line along that
limit. If they fall back into Ba
varia, they probably will draw
back their northern flank, he said,
and if they stand along the sea in
the north they probably will fold
back the southern flank, fighting
the usual tough delaying actions,
"I believe that, so far as he is
able, the German will stand and
fight wherever we find him, the
general declared.
Greatest Victory

troops west of the Rhine was one

CHUNGKING, March 27-3)
The Chinese high command said
tonight; that Japanese troops,
slashing i southward in Homn
province'! in a week-old offensive
on a (front extending 100 miles
westward of the enemy-controlled
Peiping-Hankow railroad, had by
passed the important Honan city
of Nanyang. ?
Nanyang, 200 miles north-
northwest of Hankow, is one of
the more important bastions of
the Free; China defense system.
The; high command reported
Japanese troops 20 miles west of
Nanyang and said 200 enemy cav
alrymen had been killed in a clash
with Chinese forces.
The! current Japanese drive is
aimed at capturing air bases and
rich wheat crops in the area and
protecting their overland north

Geiieral Stilwell
Tells Origin of
Name Vinegar1
ROANOKE, Va.-yPr-How 'Vin
egar Joe" got his nickname is ex
plained; in a letter from Gen. Jo
seph W. is Stilwell, which children
of Room Three at Virginia Heights
school are exhibiting proudly;
In repljto a letter asking how
he happened to be called "Vinegar
Joe," the general wrote; ,
"I just can't help it, and maybe
I deserve it. Anyway, there are
so many names they could call
me that are worse that I am
quite satisfied that they stick to
'Vinegar.
"They pinned it on me at the
Infantry School at Fort Benning,
Ga., one day after I had bawled
out the students for being very
slipshod, 'l
"I was trying to impress upon
them the fact that they as officers
must know their jobs very thor
oughly so that in action their! men
would have full confidence in
them. And our American soldiers
deserve good leaders. They are the
best soldiers in, the world, and; the
most cheerful and willing and in
telligent soldiers, too."
