There was 308 such signs over the city which was all removed by the Attorney General. But you only heard about the one down at the brewery. Everyone knows that the Storz brewery have been kind to our people in a whole lots of respects. They have spons ored many sports for our boys and girls, besides giving employment to our group which means so much. The younger generation thank God. Do not believe in persecution where there is no evidence of guilt. I no tice there arc 7 or 8 business places among our peoples who sell the brew which is just as good or bet ter than lots of other brands. The matter was reported to the Omaha branch of the NAACP. and was ex plained thoroughly to that wonder ful branch and at no time did the NAACP. advocate or urge a boy cott just some of our people who had a selfish desire. So come on help those who help us! OUTSTEALING HOME What matter Warkis old top?— Looks like the little fern have gone back to hubby from the looks of the situation that is right.
