WE HAVE A JOB TO DO
(reprint from Consumers’ Guide)
We have a job to do. 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.”

erating with the Consumers Division
of the NDAC include: National Assoc
iation of Colleges and Secondary
schools for Negroes, National Asser

Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound Is
Real “Woman's Friend”!
Some women Buffer severe monthly
pain (cramps, backache, headache) due
to female functional disorders while
other’s nerves tend to become upset and
they get cross, restless and moody.
So why not take Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound made especially
to help tired, run-down, nervous wom
en to go smiling thru “difficult days,"
Pinkham’s Compound contains no opi
ates or habit-forming ingredients. It
s
is made from nature's own beneficial
roots and herbs—each with its own
special purpose to HELP WOMEN.
Famous for over 60 years*—Pinkham's
Compound is the best known and one
of the most effective “woman's” tonics
obtainable. Try it! r .
ever own mjr father’s property.
This problem is worrying me lots.
Ans: At the present time yout
father hasn’t made a will—and 1
fear that under the circumstances
(if ue doesn't make a will) the one
living there now will be the one tc
inherit the property. If you see
fit—encourage him to have a will
dj-awn up.
******
S. H. Y.—Please tell me wheth
er or not the man in Missouri that
1 love will ever come back to me
or does he love me like he says ?
Ans: This man does admire
you very much but he isn’t finant
iallv able to return to you. I am
inclined to think that by the time
hu gets back—you will have found
someone else who will take you
for their wife and will be quite
happy.
