NEGRO MUSIC
In a recent interview, Frank
Forest, featured tenor on the na
tionally known Feen-A-Mint rad
io program, “Double or Nothing’’,
expressed his admiration for the
moving sincerity and simplicity
so characteristic of Negro music.
This purely American music
shows great inspirational intens
ity, said Mr. Forest, who has sung
with the world-famous La Scala
Opera in Italy and has given a
command performance for the
King of Norway. The power and
artistry of Negro folk music,” he
added, “could only come from a
people who have suffered.
known hunger and hardship.”
Negro music is completely Am
erican, the Minnesota-born Mr.
Forest also pointed out, without
any trace of foreign influence. On
the contrary, the Negro folk mus
ic has profoundly affected the his
tory of music and inspired serious
composers like the Bohemian com
poser, Anton Dvorak, whose New

FRANK FOREST
World Symphony contains Negro
melodies.
Of all the rich treasury of Ne
gro spirituals, Mr. Forest’s own
favorite is “Nobody Knows the
Trouble I’ve Seen,” which many
of his Negro admirers heard him
sing in a recent special broadcast
from Memphis over station WMPS
In addition to his European op
eratic background, Mr. Forest is
wel lknown here at home through
his concert work, appearances
with the Chicago Opera and in fhe
film “Champagne Waltz” with
Gladys Swarthout. As the feat
ured singer on the popular “Dou
ble or Nothing” Feen-A-Mint radio
show, Mr. Forest’s fine tenor voice
is heard by millions every Sunday
evening at six o’clock over the
Mutual network.
This Week In Religion
and Thought
BY ROBT. L. MOODY
THE BILL OF RIGHTS
The original draft of the U. S.
Constitution did not stage the
specific rights of the individual
citizens. Experience had con
vinced men of what a tyrannical
government will do. So to avoid
repeated oppression, early Amer
icans demanded that the Constitu
tion state specifically what tne
rights of the people are and what
Congress may not do.
The following rights are among
those given in the first ten am
endments, known as the “Bill of
Rights”.
1. Right to join any religious
group or refrain from all...
2. Right to freedom of speech
and press.
3. Right to assemble peaceably.
4. Right to petition the govern
ment about grievances.
5. Right to be safe in our lives
and homes.
6. Right to a fair trial and just
treatment in law courts.
7. Right of people to keep all
the rights which have not been
delegated to Congress.
It is for the preservation of
these rights and others that the
present struggle is concerned.
Most Negroes have never fully < n
joyed all these rights, but we arc
fighting for and looking for com
plete realization of them.
READ The
It may be truly said that the simple record of
three short years of human life has done more to
regenerate and soften mankind than all the dis
quisitions of philosophers and all the exhorta
tions of moralists.

Lecky! And now, on the eve of another Christ
mas, we wish again for you and yours the radi

WATER BOND RETIREMENT CLEARS
WAY FOR $2,200,000 IMPROVEMENT
PROGRAM WITHOUT INCREASE IN
WATER RATES
j V .
v URGENTLY NEEDED REPLACEMENTS
AND ADDITIONS TO CITY WATER
SYSTEM WILL NOW BE UNDERTAKEN
UNDER FIVE-YEAR MODERNIZATION
PLAN, LONG DEFERRED BECAUSE OF,
DEBT OBLIGATIONS.
/>l
The last oi the bonded indebtedness on Omaha's
water plant and distributing system has been re
tired. The original bond issue of $7,500,000, author
ized to mature December 15, 1941, has been paid in
full, and Omaha now owns a municipal water works
and system with a going value of approximately
$15,000,000.
Credit for this unique achievement goes to the
citizens of Omaha themselves, and to the long list
of prominent directors, capable executives and faith
ful employees of the water department to whom the
people entrusted the success of their enterprise.
For the first time in its 30-year history, Omaha's
water department can look forward to a program of
adequate maintenance and extension of its service.
Since July 1, 1912, when the plant was purchased,
the water department was required legally to lay
aside portions of its revenue for bond redemptions
and interest. This obligation, coupled with extremely
low fire hydrant rental rates and domestic water
rates, has restricted replacements and improve
ments to a minimum required for public safety and
service.
Revenue formerly absorbed by interest and debt
requirements can now be devoted to modernization
and rehabilitation of the water plant and system,
service improvements and maintenance, replace
ments of obsolete equipment. The long deferred
projects are estimated to take about five years at
a cost of approximately $2,200,000. This program
could not be undertaken in the past without in
creasing fire hydrant, industrial and domestic water
rates.
Following completion of the modernization pro
gram, adequate financial reserves can be accumu
lated to meet increased service demands from this
growing city.
Omaha's rates are among the lowest in the nation
at the present time. When the city acquired the
water works in 1912 the base domestic water rate
was 2B‘/4 cents per 100 cubic feet. After eight con
secutive reductions the present base domestic rate
is 12V2 cents ... a reduction of more than one-half.
On this basis Omaha users have saved more than
$12,000,000 in water costs. Approximately $1,880,000
has been saved to the city through reductions of
fire hydrant rental rates, although over one-quarter
of the $15,000,000 water plant is devoted to fire
protection,
Since the acquisition of the water plant the num
ber of customers has risen from 22,974 to 54,720;
employees from 171 to 226; miles of main from 245
to 602; fire hydrants from 2,053 to 4,832.
Retirement of bonded indebtedness will help
provide a modem, properly maintained, adequate
water service for the city of Omaha during the
national emergency, with continued low rates and
reserves for future contingencies.
