OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH j 3010 R Street Rev. Mosley, Pastor RADIO SINGER PRAISES 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 UNITED SABBATH DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH 2320 North 28th St, Elder Arthur Holmes, Pastor, Sabbath School Saturday 9:30 a. m.

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. ••• ••• How true the words of historian-philosopher Lecky! And now, on the eve of another Christ mas, we wish again for you and yours the radi ant joy, the deep inner peace which are so insep arably interwoven into the Christmas pattern, and which persist, for the individual, even in a world at war. Accept our sincere thanks for your gener ous patronage, while we renew our pledge to strive to be still more worthy of your friendship. EDHOLM & SHERMAN -24th AT WILLIS AYE. We’il have a heavy load Christmas, too! \ rt&1 mT\ At Christmas, calls to many points increase 12 times— 22 many calls will be delayed. Long distance calls made early Christmas week or just after the holiday are likely to get through more promptly. Calling by telephone number will help speed up calls and, if conversations are brief, more people will get their calls through. NORTHWESTERN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY 1———— I ...— . . — 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.
