(By Nancy Cunard for ANP) Paris, France, Oct. 25—The “la lent force of Empire," mentioned recently in a radio address by Mr. Winston Church hi 11 has al ready brought many hundreds of thousands of colored subjects into service. Also every day, at various French ports, black Colonials— mostly from Africa—a re landing —not only soldiers hut all ksnds of aiuocili&ry war workers. I have already told you how great was thu proportion of Negroes I saw rushing to volunteer in Paris— about 40 per cent of these volun teers of various nationalities were Negroes. I have also told of the prompt ness with which all Freeh Colonies have responded to the call of the colors. From near the Ethiopian* Somali border now comes the news that as soon as the F'rench mobilized in Djibouti, many Ethi opian flocked to the authorities and offered their services to France. Said this message to me: “These people are content under French rule and have been rush ing to volunteer. Hundreds are taking up arms every day.” However, it is exaggerating to print that “millions of black sol diers have been called up” that is as yet. The Senegalese Ivory Coast, Dahomean forces, those from Madagascar and other parts of French Africa, have, of course been increased and more will be <3>- ® SQUARE DEAL POULTRY MARKET 2520 Cuming St. FREE—Delivery—FREE FRESH EGGS DAILY W EBSTER 4277 !®-4) I CAREY S NABGRHOOO ' Grocery !

Whereas in German, in Goering’s own (wire less) words: "If clothes run out we shall fight in bathing-suite.” And “One meal of meat per week will do us all good; it will lessen the girth and consequent ly make tailors’ bills less.” These things he did not say as a joke. As to Montmarte, it is indeed closed down.

Barber picked up 35 yds. on a end run play, placing the bull on Fisk’s 11 yd. line. Within two plays Hudson hit over left tackle for a touchdown. Coats convert ed the extra-point from place men;. Clarks seconj touchdown came as a result of constant line plays and end runs. A shciTt pass in tho end zone from Kimble to Bar ber was good for the second touchdown. Try for extra point failed. For two quarters the Fisk stalwarts held the Atlanta agri gation scoreless. Clark scored in the first and fourth quarter. However, Bowman and Harris of Fisk constantly made long runs, but could not advance the hall into pay dirt. A burst of passes in the last quarter failed : to produce a rally for Fisk. The Atlanta boy’s opened up a run ning attack that produced two touchdowns in the early part of tho fourth quarter. Clark’s last score came as a result of a in tercepted pass by Long, who raced forty yards for the final Clark score. Try for extra point failed.

By a unamious standing vote, the convention endorsed a resolu tion which declares that “Labor wants no war or any part of it, and while countries in F’urope are engaged in their barbarous or gies of conquest and aggression as they have been doing for cen turies it must be the purpose of the United States to stay out of these wars.” The resolution further declared that the CIO “will use every legitimate means possible to a chieve a shorter work day, higher Relief At Last For Your Cough Creomulsion relieves promptly be cause it goes right to the seat of the trouble to loosen germ laden phlegm, Increase secretion and aid nature to soothe and heal raw, tender, inflam ed bronchial mucous membranes.

Walker’s preparations exclusively be cause I get results from them that I am unable to get from any other preparation,” stated a well known business woman the other day. The secret of the remarkable success of Mme. C. J. Walker’s preparations i3 in the fact that they were blended by the late I Madam C. J. Walker to reach | certain definite conditions of the | hair, skin and scalp, and today, I after over thirty-five years on ■ the market, they are growing increasingly popular, and not withstanding the fact that the Company has always refused to reduce the price on these goods, they are still in demand every- i where. Mme. C. J. Walker's Glossine, although more than thirty-five ! years on the market, is still the leader in its field. The reason for this is because it not only serves as a scalp oil, but it gives the hair that silky sheen and 1 natural gloss that is the delight , of every woman. Mme. C. J. Walker's Brown Face Powder is not just another Face Powder, but is the result of years of experimenting to pro duce the perfect blend to impart a velvetlike softness and at the same time cooling and refresh ing. Just the thing for these hot days. The Mme. C. J. Walker’s won derful preparations are sold by Walker Beauticians and Drug Stores everywhere, or you can write The Mme. C. J. Walker Mfg.
