Africa Capetown -- (Reuters) -- A South African bureau of racial affairs, to study racial problems in South Africa, has been formally establish- ed in Capetown. Aims of the movement were set out in a statement issued after the inaugural meeting: 1. To study racial matters and the promotion of good relationships among the various race groups in South Africa; 2. To accept the basis of sepa- rate development of European and non-European race groups; and 3. To protect and safeguard the interests of these groups. "Not the least doubt can exist about the need for such an organ- ization, which will be in the ser- vice of the entire populaton and above party politics," the state- ment added. "Indeed, the measure of en- thusiasm with which this thought has been welcomed throughout our country, and the actual support which it has received from Afri- kaans and English-speaking people, both inside and outside the union, has given adequate proof that the inauguration of such an organiza- tion cannot be postponed any longer. "The main object of the bureau will be to examine racial problems thoroughly and scientifically, to ensure a fair and just® control of racial matters in South Africa, to assist the promotion of the inter- ests of the European, colored and native groups of the nations, and to do its best for the proper develop- ment of the native areas. "Furthermore, it is the intention of the bureau to disseminate infor- mation (also for the creation of healthy public opinion overseas), concerning the elementary facts in connection with race matters in our country: the implication and appli- THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE EAS Ne ofod, Hof §-54- PAVEMENT CON PACKED REAR WHEELS Rr i CHAINS ON REAR WHEELS P IN A FREEZE-UP ~ -- DRY CONCRETE | | Ry £9. Cigaret Loses Exchange Value On German Curb By GEORGE BRIA Berlin--(AP)-- Currency reform in western Germany has changed the fortunes of many a black mar- ket and brought the world a thriv- ing new-one. . The cigaret, once good as gold on bargain counters of the defeated, plunged dizzily in western Germany with the birth of: the Deutsche mark. It held nearly its own only in blockaded Berlin, buoyed up in the uncertain swirl of crisis. American cigarettes used to bring about 100 marks a package. After currency reform they dropped to about five marks. Taking into con- sideration the fact that the mark was slashed on a 10 for one basis, the new price for cigarettes still reflects the heavy blow dealt to this black market. 'In Berlin, however, a . package of cigarettes still gets around 10 west-marks. Candy bars, coffee and soap, which opened many doors to easy 'money in the first days of occupa- tion, also have lost much of their barter power. Men say they would rather work for the marks. The new mark itself, resting on the European Recovery Program, made two nations out 'of Germany overnight, one rooted in the coal pits and forges of the Ruhr, the other chained to the dismal econ- omy of the Soviet occupation. A black market sprung up in Ber- lin as soon as Russian authorities followed the western currency re- form with a money change of their own and banned the Deutsche or 50ft. 75r. 100. 1256, 15061. 175. - Braking Distances on Various Road Surfaces at 20 mph - ~ 3 A CRETE) NO CHAINS 40.

"The establishment of division or instftute for scientific research in connection with racial matters in our country will be a particular task of the bureau. "To ensure the success of this or- | ganization, it is of course absolute- ly necessary that a large section of the people should throw its full | weight into the movement. | "To make it possbile for every- body to support the bureau, provi- | sion has been made for various | groups of members. (A similar or- | ganization or organizations for our Mon-European groups will receive | the most serious consideration of the bureal). > "Representatives of these various membership groups will then serve on a council, in whose hands the control of the bureau wild be vested." TOO LIBERAL Evanston, Ill, Noy. 18--(AP)--An article in a student newspaper has charged that Northwestern Univers- ity fired its women's counsellor be- cause she was "too liberal about Jews and Negroes," but the uni- versity denied it Wednesday. The charge was made by Miss Mary F. Hutchins, 22, daughter" of Chancel- lor Robert M. Hutchins of the Uni- versity of Chicago, in an interview with the student newspaper. BETTER DRESSED NOW "Clay" mark from east Germany. The "Clay" mark hit a four for one ratio with the Soviet or "Stokolov- ations has held that ratio. Military certificates (scrip) used by Americans and | Britons get about 11 marks for $1 in western Germany. Real green- backs buy 13 td 14 marks. New York set the exchange rate there at six to 10 marks for $1. At present there is no international rate except | for import-export transactions where it is pegged at one mark for | 30 cents. | The cigarette and candy markets |in western Germany dwindled | greatly even before currency reform | was adopted. The boom was in the | first days after the war when a weeks army post exchange ration would keep a man living comfort- ably for a month on marks from the ration sale.

Currency reform stopped at, The cigarette market thrived for a couple of years, however, on ship- ments from overseas until these were banned in 1947. Barter in post exchange items was still good for laundry, work around the house and auto repairs, but it no longer built fortunes. The new mark dealt a death blow to all this in western Ger- many, outside Berlin. The cigarette no longer is the factor it once was in German life, and its value is less than in French or Italian black markets. MORE BUTTER Toronto, Nov. 18--(CP)---Farm- ers must produce more butter or give in to the "clamor" for oleo- margarine, William Newman of Victoria County said Wednesday. He told the annual meeting of the Ontario Cream Producers' Associa- tion that the whole country is de- manding margarine and that if it were legalized the price spread be- tween it and butter would amount to 40 cents a pound. SECRET QUARREL Washington, Nov. 18--(AP)-- A secret' quarrel in the United States armed forces became public Wed- nmesday and Defence Secretary, James Forrestal said he will inves- tigate the "leak."

He sald that statements made by the navy before a congressional commit tee were a "challenge of the ability of the air force to accomplish its primary mission." His statement was published in a number of news- papers Wednesday, STAY IN POLITICS Cincinnati, Nov. 18--(AP)--The American Federation of Labor, im- pressed by its showing in the recent United States elections, voted Wed- nesday to stay in politiics perma- nently.
