TAKE NEGRO SOLDIERS OUT
OF THE SOUTH
Take Negro soldiers out of the south
into the North and West as was done in
the first World w^r. The South with
its ignorance and prejudice cannot
treat the Negro fairty either as soldiers
or citizens. And the National Govern
ment should at once begin the trans
fer of these soldiers and the ones in
ducted into service afterward should
be quartered and trained in the North
and West and East.
We do not have the time to educate
the South ,on this question, because
those prejudiced leaders would rather
see Hitler win the war than give the
Negro justice. But President Roosevelt
knows better and does mi want Hitler
to win. Hence, we say to him, scotch
the Fifth Columnists in the deep south
by removing the Negro soldiers. They
wa|[it them down there so as to exploit
them as sodiers as they have always
exploited them as citizens.
They have more little Hitlers tb the
square mile in the Deep South than can
be found in a similar area anywhere
else on earth.
Save democracy here in America.
CONGRATULATIONS,
MR. FLETCHER
Mr. Panasebe Fletcher was appoint
ed a teacher in the Omaha Public
Schools this year. Mr. Fletcher is well
qualified for the teaching profession.
He receiver his B. A. degree at Howard
University, his M. A. at Nebraska Uni
versity and has had one year of Study
on his Phd. at the University of Cali
fornia at Berkley.
The Omaha Board of Education
which is now committed to the policy
of employing Negroes as teachers in
the schools, will find it highly benefi
cial to the community in general and
the school system in particular, to aug
ment the number of teachers from this
group as rapidly as possible. Such a
course will help the educational effort
and greatljy improve relations through
respectful understanding between the
various racial stocks in the community.
Mr. Fletcher, if given support, will
aid measureably in that regard.

BALLAD OF SOME CHANGES
MADE
(by Langston Hughes for ANP)
I had a gal
She was driving alone,
Doing eighty
In a twenty mile zone.
Had to pay her ticket.
It took all I had.
What makes a woman
Treat a man so bad?
Come to find out
(If Ld a-only knew it!)
She had another joker
In my Buick!
So from now on,
I want the world to know,
That gal don’t drive my
Car no more.
One of the real threats to Negro
advancement is, more and more our
women must stand in the economic
gateway and protect and support the
home. In other words more and more
they are having to “carry the male*’.
A hitch in time may also save
nine.

Nomadic Mongols of Manehukuo
Paying no heed to the march of time the nomadic Mongol* of the Western part of Manchukuo, number
ing some 700,000, still lead a primitive life, raising their sheep on the wind-swept steppes and living
in easily collapsible “pao” (tents). The Mongolian family shown above is typical of the roving people
! constantly on the move in search of water and grassland for their herds. ___

"Currant”
Events
'■"■■.. By Frances Lee Barton ——
KEEP up with your “currant
events” as well as with current
events. As the various members of
the currant fam
ily appear on
the market or
ripen on your
own grounds,
roll out the jars,
turn the fruit
Into jelly or jam,
and later on
you’ll have a
-——— carrei oi run.
A combination of red currants
and ripe apricots makes a very de
licious jam. Here is a recipe that
will take care of about eleven
glasses — but when you taste this
jam you will see to it that at least
another batch is prepared.
Apricot and Currant Jam
4 cups (2 lbs.) prepared fruit;
7% cups (3*4 lbs.) sugar; Vi bottle
fruit pectin.
To prepare fruit, pit (do not peel)
about lVi pounds fully ripe apri
cots. Cut in small pieces and crush
thoroughly or grind. Crush thor
• oughly or grind about 1 pound fully
ripe red currants. Combine fruits.
Measure sugar and prepared flkiit
into large kettle, mix well, and
bring to a full rolling boil over
hottest fire. Stir constantly before
and while boiling. Boil hard 1
minute. Remove from fire and stir
in bottled fruit pectin. Skim; pour
quickly. Paraffin hot jam at once.
Makes about 11 glasses (6 fluid
