DO NOT ACCEPT ANY WHITE FLOUR THAT DOES NOT HAVE THE WORD ‘ENRICHED- ON THE LABEL. IF YOUR GROCER DOES NOT HAVE ENRICHED FLOUR INSIST THAT HE GET IT FOR YOU. IT IS EASILY AVAILABLE TO HIM."— —DR. W . H. SEBRELL, JR.. U. S. Public Health Service, Washington. D. C. Vitamin-Enriched OMAR Wonder Flour i President release this man was the main factor, I’m sure, that brought about the release of Earl Browder, General Secretary of the Communist Party. To the people that are acquainted with the facts of the case, there <s no doubt but that Browder was a political prisoner, and even the President in ordering his release from prison stated that the sentence imposed upon Browder was unjust in its severity. To the Negro people I want to say that they should rejoice in the liberation of Browder and in the part they took in bringing about his freedom, such as signing cards, p*»t itons, etc. Earl Browder is the peo ple’s champion; he is the man who I for years led the struggle for the freedom of Tom Mooney and War ren K. Biling, and as fate would have it, these are the two men that led the struggle to win Browder's release, though I regret to say that Tom Mooney did not live to see T.h» release of Browder effected. I refer to Tom Mooney and Warren K. BM lings for the benefit of our trade union members, for these men serv ed long prison terms on trumped up charges of the preparedness <*it bombing on the west coast. But to come closer to home. Earl Browder, led the fight for the free dom of the Scottsboro boys. Also Angelo Herndon. The Communist Party led by Earl Browder was in the vanguard of these struggles anl worked until the freedom of the lads unjustly accused was affected. And just as the Communists led by Brow der fought for these things, they will continue to fight for victory over Hitler and Hitlerism. The Communist Party is a power ful ally of the Negro people becarre they are fighting for the very sam* things we are. Anyone who doubts this, should read the program of the Communist Party of the USA. I once read in the Chicago Go fender that every black man was a potential Communist, and I’m forc ed to agree with this statement when I see the treatment accorded my people at {he hands of the other political partys. Some people may feel that the Communists are doing these things to win the support of the Negro peo ple, but the people who do feel this way are wrong, fo rthe Communists are doing these things because they know it is the only way real and lasting democracy can be establish ed. The things that have been told to us about the Communists are being proven daily to have been a bunch of lies, for today the Communists jn Russia are leading the people of the USSR, in battle against fascism and it is their valiant struggle that is giving our government time to pre pare the death blow to Hitler and his satellites. And the Russian pen pie have been preaching, namely. The Brotherhood of Man. I would suggest that anyone in terested in learning some of the true facts about the USSR, read the Dean of Canterbury book, Soviet Power, on sale at Brumbaugh s book shop on 16th Street, across! from the poStoffice So I say that we as Negro people can rejoice in the freedom of Earl Browder as we know he and the Communist Party wil lhelp us in ojr struggle to tear down these discrim inatory measures that are used n gainst our people. • Melvjn Grant has been here visit ing his relatives Mr. and Mrs. U.
