Color expert for Uncle Sam. Washington, D.C., June 20. When it was discovered that color plays an important [role] in marketing of cotton, Miss Dorothy Nickerson, Color Technologist of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, developed a method for measuring the color of raw cotton mechanically. The equipment comprises a comparator, a motor on which to spin standard color discs, the color discs, and standard artificial daylight. When looking through the comparator, the operator sees a circular field, the upper half made up of the color of the cotton and the lower half made up of the disc colors, 6/20/38

In Memphis, Tennessee hundreds of colored laborers congregated near the bridge every morning at daylight in hopes of work chopping cotton on a plantation. They are hauled to and from work on trucks. Reduced cotton acreage has made employment scarce for this class of seasonal labor in all towns. "You can't live the commonest way on six bits a day. Not alone nor no way. A man like me can't get no foothold. It's a mighty tough old go. The people here in the morning are hungry, raggedy, but they don't make no hungry march"

Royal Air Force "Ventura" bombers blitz Den Helder in daylight. "Ventura" aircraft of Royal Air Force bomber command, escorted by fighters, attacked the docks at Den Helder by daylight on February 12, 1943. Their previous visit to the Dutch port was January 23. Action photo taken during the attack shows many bombs bursting across the southern entrance to the naval basin--four of them in the inner haven (Naval). Hits were scored on the torpedo boat establishment and the torpedo workshops east of the entrance. Smoke arises from bombs which burst in a line across the railway in the southwest part of the harbor
