State and Dougherty Sts. Black Mountain Unemployed Must Seek Work RALEIGH, Sept.—The G. I. Bill of Rights and the State UCC law provides, among other require ments, that an unemployed indi vidual shall be eligible to receive benefits with respect to any week only if the State Unemployment Compensation Commission finds that he is able to work and is avail able for work. The Commission, as explained by Chairman Henry E. Kendall, has adopted the policy that to be available for work an unemployed individual must act ively seek work on his own initia tive, in addition to the require ment that he register for work each week with the Employment Service. When a claimant, veteran or regular UCC claimant, first ap plies to the UCC claims taker for veteran allowances or benefits under the regular UCC program, he is advised by the claims taker that it is his duty to seek employ ment on his own behalf, as well as to report in person to any jobs which the Employment Service may have to offer him. If or when a claimant has drawn benefits for an extended period of continuous unemploy ment, then he may be considered as having eliminated himself from the labor market and the claims taker, under Chairman Kendall’s instructions, is directed to inquire into what steps he has taken on his own initiative to find a job, submitting the dates, names and address of employers he may have contacted and the results of his effort to find work. The claims taker, if not entirely convinced that the claimant has actively sought work, as reported, will seek to contact the employer to verify statements made by the claimant and record his findings. Cases of claimants who do not convince the claims takers of their efforts to find work are to be referred to UCC claims depu ties who will conduct investiga tions and make determinations. Unless good reasons exist for failure of claimants to seek work actively, then, in accordance with Chairman Kendayy’s statement of policy, claimants will be consider ed to have withdrawn themselves from the labor market and there fore, are not available for work, in which cases allowances and benefits will be halted, pending final dispositions of the cases. COSTELLO FAMILY MOVES HERE o Pfc. and Mrs. Delbert Costello have recently moved to Black Mountain from Elkins, West Vir ginia. Pfc. Costello is stationed at Moore General Hospital. Both re port that they like Black Moun tain very much. Mountain View Church To Hold Homecoming 0 The Mountain View Baptist Church will hold its homecoming Sunday, October 6-.

Dr. Miller from Black Mountain College will speak on “India and the Post War World.” I Say You Saw It In The News ly/aireif ipch'e , ■ B W . n.j7in.?.Tni Notes of a Newspaper Man * I ( The Justice Dep’t members (who are planning to ashcan the sedition case) are as spineless as spaghetti. The defendants aped nazi tactics and still are echoing nazi propa ganda. ... It provides a galling contrast: Thousands of American soldiers lost their lives fighting naziism. Others lost their eyes, hands and limbs. But some defeat ists in our justice dep’t refuse to take Hitler’s stooges into court for fear of losing a case! . . . And re member that any American soldier who refused to fight when it seemed like the nazis would be victorious —could have been shot. Vignette: Laura LaPlante, the movie star, who is still a looker, tells it herself. . . . She drove up to a gas station recently where the attendant did a double-take and said: “Say, did anybody ever tell you that you look like Laura La- Plante?” ... A bit cagily, Laura replied: “Why, yes. As a matter of fact several people have.” ... To which he hastily added: “Oh, don’t get me wrong, lady. I don’t mean the way she looks NOW!” An American newspaper man and a Russian scribe got chum my at the peace conference. “I can’t understand your Stalin,” said the Yank. “It took a world war to get us American report ers into Russia.” “What are you complaining about?” chuckled the Russian. “It took a world war to get us Russian newspaper men out!” 1 Another newsman, recently back from the Balkans, explained the Tito regime’s arrogance with this yarn. . . . He asked a Yugoslav leader why his tiny nation insisted on alienating a powerful friend such as the U. S. . . . The Yugoaf sneered: “Tiny nation? We and the Russians number more than 200 million!” New York Novelette: Not too long ago a pretty newcomer chorine phoned a newspaper man she knows. . . . She said she had a weighty problem for him to help solve. She said her. chief ambition was to wed a millionaire, but she didn’t know any. . . . Could he in troduce her to some? . . . Nothing came of it. ... A few weeks ago that girl married a multi-million aire, who settled nine million dol lars on his ex-wife for the divorce. The newlys are still honeymoon ing. . . . She is Marianne O’Brien. ... He is the Camel ciggie heir, R. J. Reynolds. Broadway Torch Song: (By Don Wahn): The mob is back the nights take on a tang. . . . New shows, new gals, new blood is in the veins. ... Yet I remember all the songs we sang. . . . When wine was king and glamour held the reins. . . . That was an autumn tinc tured with delight. . . . When life was lush and all the chips were down. . . . And we would wait like culprits for the night. ... To steal the gold that drifted on the town. . . . But we were ripe for all the pranks of Fate . . . And so we came to terms with discontent. . . . And suddenly we found the hour was late. . . The wine was low— the gold was strangely spent. ... I turned to you as solace for a Fool, .. . But you and autumn both turned very cool! * Many of the misunderstand ings between nations can be traced to a lack of knowledge. Some newspaper men in an en lightened city such as Paris know very little about the United States. . . . Several months ago a gazette in Paris referred to “a village cf 200 souls in the half savage state of Texas.” Sounds in the Night: At Leon & Eddie’s: “Tommy Manville must be getting old. He took a vacation j this summer instead of a honey moon” ... In the Cub room: “Oh, stop giving yourself 4 stars!” . . . At the Singapore: “He’s a typical Broadway success. Doesn’t know anybody any more.” ... In Village Vanguard: “Her tongue’s an ex press train, and rumors are its only passengers." ... At the 400: “Ev ery time one of those guys at the j United Nations conference shakes a threatening fist he’s taking your life in his hands." ... At the Copa: “He took me to breakfast last night.” ... At the Stork: Be careful! She looks like the plaintiff type.” Boston blue-pencilers added an other slice of stupidity to their non censorship record. Although “Life with Father” has been running there for more than a year, the Boston censors finally decided to delete a line from the play. ... It j recalls the time the same blue- I pencilers issued the following in structions for a film: "Eliminate scene showing man kicking girl.” . . . And then the censor’s report added: “This elimination required only on Sunday showing.” BUY BONDS AND KEEP THEM Coming Events In North Carolina o All events on which definite in formation for current year is available are listed.
