Some find they need only start on it three days before “their time’’ and take it as directed in or der to relieve periodic pain due to functional causes. Others find Ithat the proper use of CARDUI enables them to stim ulate appetite and improve diges tion (through the increased flow of digestive juice).

ASCH RECORDING STUDIOS PREPARING NEGRO ALBUM It lg believed that the Asch Re cording Studios, 117 West 46th St New York City, are about to pub lish the Calvacade of the American Negro—on records. This should be of interest not only to the whole Negro race, but to every A merican as well The records are of educati mal, cultural and of entertainment val ue. The Script was written by Miss Mercedes Gilbert of radio and theatre fame, and tells the history of the American Negro from 1619 to the present day. The mother of the negro race is nar rated by Miss Gilbert and the voic es of her children are portrayed In songs by the Jarahal Choral Glee Club which provides the mus ical background. Naturally the story includes names famous in American history; as Chrispus At tucks, Jameg Bland, Phyliss Wheat ley, Harriet Tubman, Booker T. Washington, Frederick Douglas, Dr. Carver, Mary McLeod Bethune the late James Weldon Johnson, etc. The records, four in all, will be released in Album form and each side of a record will have a com plete story of the epoch it repres ents The Book series will have the advantage of a supplementary historical continuity. These recordings are under tl e supervision of Mr. M. Asch, Rec ording Engineer. Mr. Leroy Collins, well known newspaper man and rario produc er and announcer, has been added to the staff of the Asch Recording Studios as Press Relations Counsel and Press Representative for Miss Mercedes Gilbert.

RADIO SERIES TO DEPICT NEGRO CONTRIBUTIONS TO AMERICAN LIFE— A series of educational radio programs planned by the U. S. Office of Education and financed by a Rosenwald Foundation grant will dramatize Negro contributions to American life. The programs, to be broadcast nationally, will portray the role Negroes have played in American education, art, science, industry, and other fields of endeavor, U. S. Commissioner of Education John W. Studebaker reported. The radio series is being prepared under the geieral direction of Ambrose Caliver, U S. Office of Education Specialist in the Education of Negroes and William D. Boutwell, Chief, Division of Radio, Publications, and Exhibits. Plans for the project call for transcriptions of the programs for use in schools, colleges and by local radio stations. The transcriptions, and radio scripts revised as lesson units and study guides, are expected tj be used by both white and Negro schools in cours es or units of instruction about Negroes in the Uni ted States Commissioner Studebaker said today that this is a most important undertaking of the U S. Of fice of Education in behalf of all Negirces who have had a part in the development of our national cult ure. “We shall do our utmost to report accurate and full information abooit constructive activities and accomplishments of Negroes in this radio series,” said the Commissioner. “Much of this information is not available in textbooks and in general reading matter, yet it is the type of information that could help to improve race relations and aid in solving many problems of majority and minority groups.” The U. S. Office of Education, will have the as sistance of a technical advisory committee in devel oping the series of radio programs, and is seeking advice and suggestions from Negroes throughout the United States to be considered in making further ■ plans. To be included in the series will be the Negro's participation in: Music, literature, art, religion, ex piration, invention, scientific research, agriculture industry, labor, education, civil and military service theatrical and sports activities. and another colored teacher was appointed in an acting capacity until the end of last year. Fivei hundreds students stayed home from c^asse* pending the outcome of a conference between their par ents and the director of the Trans vaal Education department. SOCIAL DISEASE WORK TRIPLES 82 POSITIVE REPORTS LISTED AT CLINCS Business at the city venereal din lc has nearly tripled since start last month of the health depart ment-police drive to reduce known sources of infection, it was shown in reports by Health Commission er Dr. A- S- Pinto. The clinic examined 269 person* in 897 free visits during February compared with 111 examinations 369 visits in the same month a year ago, the report showed. Out of 249 laboratory tests last month there were positive reports on 28 syphilis and 56 gonorrhea cases. In February, 1940, 66 laboratory tests disclosed positive reports on 10 syphilis and six gonorrhea cas es. Cooperate With Army Meanwhile Dr. Pinto said hi* of flee is offering “every co-operat ion”, to Dr. Harry Jackson War ner, newly assigned United States public health service surgeon for the 7th army corps area Dr. Pinto also received word to day that Dr. Earl Moore chairman f a National Research council sub committee on venereal diseases, had urged abolition of segregated ' prostitution districts near military establishments and strict repres sion of solicitation of men by pros tutes on streets, in cabarets or other gathering places.

Cop ing with such problem* In the Im mediate Fort Crook area will be up to Sarpy and state authorities, he said. NEGROES MUST ORGANIZE!!! (continued from page 1) likewise passed unanimously a res olution calling upon the President bo demand the ending of discrim ination in jobs in defense industr ies. WE MUST ceaselessly demand our rights in industry and employ ment as well as our civil and poli tical rights. But there is little sense or profit in complaining un less we organize to make effect ive our complaint against dis crimination and secure our right eous demands for justice. No race or group on earth ever was “given rights.’’ They gained strength by organizing until they were abl'j to take their rights. Negroes must learn the power of organized thinking and organized acting in our struggle to win our full citiz enship rights in American life JASPER COLE, JR. WRITES IN PUBLIC PULSE OF THE OMAHA WORLD-HERALD Anti-Lynch Bill— Omaha: With our national def ense program on every tongue I suppose another year will pass with nothing done about the anti lynch bill. According to our con stitution, the Fourteenth amend ment states, “No state shall deny to any person in its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law.’’ In the bill of rights the fifth art icle says, “No person shall be de prived of life, liberty or property without due process of law,” which supposedly means trial by judge and jury. Therefore in my estim ation the federal government can prosecute any person or group of persons for violating these provis ions. Why hasn’t the government done so? With all this talk of democracy, enforcing our laws, be ginning with our constitution, would surely be a step toward just that. —Jasper Cole, Jr. IF WE DIDN’T PAY TAXES! “If the Nebraska Power Comp any didn’t pay taxes it could give its customers free service two months out of each year,” J. E. Davidson, president of the comp any, said today in commenting on the report that an Iowa municipal plant has given its customer’s one month’s free service. “In talking about electric rates,” Mr. Davidson added, “it is well to keep in mind that privately-owned utilities pay taxes and municipal utilities do not No comparison of their electric rates, therefore, is fair unless this freedom from tax ation is considered. “Our company pays $1,469,000 or more than $4,000 a day, in taxes. Our contribution to the support of government takes 17 cents of ev ery dollar we receive. This is more than twice the 8 1-3 percent discou nt. which one month's free service represents.

But if we didn't pay these taxes, all other taxpay ers would have to pay higher tax es to make up this amount, or gov eminent expenditures would have to be reduced that much each year.” _— Lemon Jniee Recipe Checks Rheumatic Pain Quickly If you suffer from rheumatic, arthri tis or neuritis pain, try this simple inexpensive home recipe that thousands are using.
