You, and I. amd everyone. Our jib is this: To make America strong. We have our lands to hold, our waters to protect, our skies t> guard. We have these, but we have more. We have people. We are rich in people. People who love and cherish cur land. People who know how and want to work. People who have deep faith that here we have the greatest chance for life, and liber ty, and the pursuit of happiness. Peo ple who know the fight for these is never won until it is won for every body. ' Defense is planes and guns. It is equipping an army to man cur military weapons. It is this, and more. It is building the health, and physical fit ness, the spci'-il well-being of all our people, and doing it the democratic way. Hungry people, undernourished people, ill people, do not make for strong defense. This, then, is our job, not all >f it, but a vital part: Let us make every A merican strong, stronger than ever be fore, sturdier in body, steadier in nerv es, surer in living. Harriet Elliott, Consumer Commissioner, Natl. Defense Advisory Com. * * * NATIONAL DEFENSE ADVISORY COMMISSION Negro consumers were urged this week to join with other consumer groups in a concerted effort to streng then America by wiping out malnutri tion and undernourishment The appeal was made by Miss Har riet Elliott, Consumer Commissioner on the National Defense Advisory Commission, in a special statement di rected to Negro groups participating in the program of total national def ense. “Defense is not solely a matter of planes and guns.” Miss Elliott said, “It is also building the health, physical fitness, and social welfare of all of our people.” Hungry people, undernour ished people, ill people do not make for strong defense. “Forty-five million of us are liv ing below the safety line right llow be cause we are not getting the kinds and amount of food necessary for strength and health. We have the lands, ma chines and hands to produce and move and market all the foods we need to as sure evr^’ione an adequate and safe diet. Let’s all get to v/ork to see that everyone, and the “everyone” ic impor tant, gets at least that. Especially is this necessary for certain types of con sumers most in need of protection — farmers, Negroes, labor and immi grant p-roups.” The Consumers’ Division of the National Defense Advisory Commis sion was established for the purpose oi providing protection to American con sumers against possible hardships and maladjustments caused by the impact of the defense program, and to streng then the country’s human defenses by maintaining standards of health, nu trition, physical fitness and social well being necessary for adequate defense. At present twenty-two national Negro organizations are co-operating with the Division in its work of aiding and protecting the civilian population in the drive for national defense. Miss Frances Williams, assistant to the Chief of the Civic Groups Section of the Consumer’s Division) is working with these and other (organizations. Miss Williams is on leave from her post as interracial secretady of the national Young Womens Christian Associat ion. In her call for concerted action in ' the drive against undernourishment and malnutrition, Miss Elliott suggest ed the following 8-point program: (1) “Get aj municipal radio market news service started so household buy ers will know what foods are good buys and cheap each day; (2) “Start a school lunch program and se;e that every schiobl child has at least one well balanced and adequate meal each day; 3) ‘-Work for low-cost ways of sell ing milk and fruits and vegetables so that low income families can buy a greater abundance of these protective foods; 4 “Set up diet clinics where families can bring their food buying problems and talk them over with experts in nu trition and consumer buying; 5) “Support the Food Stamp Plan now operating in 150 cities; 6) “Learn, if you have the land, how to giiow the foods you cannot buy, pre serve the foods you cannot immediate ly use and plan for balanced meals throughout the year; (7) “Urge merchants to sell Govern ment-graded foods, and urge consum ers to buy by grade so they will get the quality they want for the money they have to spend; 8) “Know what your local, State and National governments are doing to help get safe meals to more people.” Negro organizations now coop erating with the Consumers Division of the NDAC include: National Assoc iation of Colleges and Secondary schools for Negroes, National Asser tion of College Women, National Con gress of Colored Parents and Teachers National Association for Advancement of Colored People, National Associat ion of Colored Women, National Ne gro Business League, National Negro Congress, National Council of Negro Women of the U.
