The committee was organized three years ago for the purpose among other things, of supporting THE VOICE advertisers and thereby adequately maintaining a publication to serve the best in terest of the community. We have received very fine co-operation' and the results have been com mendable. To see these names; together in print gives some ideal of the tremendous possibilities and I merit of such strong co-operation. THE VOICE has weathered five years, during which time the paper’s pages have carried local, sectional and national news, and it has become an accepted part of local life . .. familiar in the home of the progressive Lincolnite. This “Committee of 100 Fami lies” is only a small part of the families, friends and interested readers in the city and throughout ’ the country who are responsible j for the success of THE VOICE. i Southern Negroes Make Gains Recently speaking in Richmond, Va., the veteran NAACP admin istrator, Roy Wilkins, paid a de served tribute to the initiative and courage of Southern Negroes, who have too frequently been represented, fro propaganda pur poses as being helpelss and ter rorized. It is most timely to have pointed out, as Mr. Wilkins did, that “it was the Southern Negroes who challenged in the courts the old ‘Grandfather Clause’ which Sculptor Completes War Memorial Design By Alice Lamb COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.— (ANP)—Thurman Dillard, Negro sculptor of Colorado Springs, hasj completed his design for the sec tion of the United States Junior Chamber of Commerce’s war me morial building in Tulsa, Okl., to be built by the Colorado Springs Jaycees.

It was the Southern Negros who started and carried through to a victorious finish the 20-year fight against ‘White Primary.’ It is the Southern Negroes, operating through the courts, who have opened the doors of Southern white universities to their young1 people. It has been the Southern Negroes who have taken a lead-. !ing part in the 50-year fight against lynching, riots and Klan' terror. It is now the Southern Negroes in Virginia, South Caro-j lina and Georgia who are asking! the courts that segregation be abolished in elementary and high schools.” fKliauMB1 »««1 l| Congratulations from II PARRISH * MOTOR CO.
