D. A.R to Reconsider Negro Ban

Washington (UP)—The Daughters of the American Revolution will decide next week whether to open the organization's Constitution hall here to Negro artists, following yesterday's controversy over allowing Hazel Scott, Negro pianist, to give a concert in the hall.
D. A.R. officials acknowledged today that rules of the organization do bar Negroes from appearing in the hall. Earlier President Truman was asked to "do something" about the ban on Miss Scott's appearance.
Rationing of new trucks and bushes imported into Brazil will continue under government control.
At a time when all America is rejoicing over final Victory, it isn't easy to sound a somber note. But the effects of years of war cannot be erased overnight. The return to normal conditions will take place gradually—step by step.
You want these men and women to be returned home with utmost speed—and so do we—but at best it will take months and the use of a large part of our passenger equipment.
So it is with the railroads...with Union Pacific. Millions of men and women in service have yet to be returned to their homes. And, unfortunately, there will be others whose destination will be a hospital or rehabilitation center. Because Union Pacific is a transcontinental railroad, uniting the East with the West Coast, a large share of this job will fall on our shoulders.
For this reason we ask the civilian public not to expect an immediate betterment in the transportation situation. For the railroads, as for industry generally, there must be a period of reconversion.
So we say—please be patient. Normal peacetime operation will be resumed as quickly as possible and, as in the past, the progressive Union Pacific will provide unexcelled facilities and service.
