Justi fication for the killing was based on the statement that the soldiers hal machine guns and were firing then in the streets. This is a very unlikely happening and should be impartially probed. All of which reminds us that Col ored Public Relations Officers would save such a situation by creating a better understanding between the j races and making proper contacts I Such men should be employed in respectable numbers and sent over CHOP SUEY Kin sr Yuen Cafe 2010'/2 N. 24th St. JAckson 8575 .Open from 2 p. m.

Besides, it is a phase of ignorance and education such as suggested here is the only cure f> r it. ***** THE POLITICAL POT IS BOILING The politically inclined have thrown their hats into the ring and the battle is on. In state politics chief interest seems to center around the jfmdid ates for United States Senator. On the democratic side we hear the names of William Ritchie. John C. Mullen and Congressman Coffey, most frequently mentioned. On the republican side we hear the names of Kenneth Wherry and Hugh Ash more more often than any other persons. Among aspirants for gov ernor, republicans present two strong men. Charles J. Warner and Dwight Griswold, the latter being the present governor. Locally, the legislative race dw-arfs all others in interest. Here we have many old timers and many new timers at the bat. And tie fight they are making "is a honey". Thus far they have been "hitting a bove the belt". But if the race real ly "speeds up”, somebody will have to be stopped or the cameras will not be rapid enough to record the photo finish which is in the offing. We do not know just how the race is taking shape everywhere, but here in the 5th District the race is "nin and tuck.” The Acting Editor. C. C. Galloway, your "Hopeful” for Senator, is getting ready for a reali race and he will be running until Is I P. M. August 11th, Primary Day. When nominated and elected, he will serve all his constituents faith fully. He intends to stand by his platform pledges. Let the pot boil. - I SABOTAGE ANT) SABOTEURS In recent days a great deal has been published about sabotage an-1 saboteurs. A few of that element have been apprehended and a small, number have been placed on trial before a military commission. We do not know what the facts are. but we can say that the thought of it sickens us. For one hundred and fifty years we have been telling the world a bout the American “MELTING j POT”: how we receive NATIONAL!) of other lands and makes them cit izens and Americans. Well, we are finding out that an oath of fealty to a government must be made by the heart and not by lying lips: if it is to mean anything. Our theory is excellent, but our practice has not yet risen to the high level of the theory. And while we dislike having to.remind Amer icans about the LOYALTY OF THE COLORED POPULATION the trait orous behaviour of our “enemies within” compels us to do so. The awful truth is that these Nazis have been preferred to our own colored people: they have been employed while loyal black men have had to stand by and beg for work in our war factories: th“v have had to stand by while these enemies entered every door, while they could not, even to give their lives to save the libertis of all men everywhere. We must, therefore, conclude thst the master SABOTEUR is color pre judice. Let us slay this monster Real Shoe Man— FONTENELLE SHOE REPAIR Cash and Carry CLEANER 1410 North 24th St. CARL CRIVEfav TEL.

GIRLS ON THE I STREETS • •• Everybody moved Tuesday night. i can't say they were way out on the ♦ outskirts of town—but they were downtown jumping to that famous one o clock “jump master” “Count Basie.” W'hatta crowd! The “Count" came on with his fine music—among the finest were: , You are always in my heart—I'm | gonna move to the outskirts of • town—Basie Blues—Little Jimmy Rushing really did give I _ first and then “put the traitors to the sword”. \ COLORED SOLDIERS IN ALL COUNTRIES NOW. Colored soldiers are now in 3II the warring countries. Letters ate being received from them from the far places of earth. On the whole they are doing vein- well. Later on in the war. they will die. ever more and more all over the earth whe-'t? there will be ‘ lack of woman's nurs | ing and dearth of woman's tears”. In those lands they shall forever lie buried as boys of another generat ion lie in the now Nazi desecrcuei cemeteries of FALLEN FRANCE. The young men who went away to war a generation ago had in their hearts the rapture of a lofty resolve; they would fight and die gallant, bleeding France, the symbol of ail liberty for all men everywhere. Now the sons of the veterans of that other war go forth to fight for some thing which is not s clearly defin ed in their minds and hearts. Those of us who survived that other tragedy know why we fight: to save others that we ourselves might be saved. Lasting Salvation. Lhowever, will not be ours, as in the 'last war it was not. unless we free ‘all men of all colors and all lands For unless we do this, the worll will be made miserable for a thous and years. China. India. Africa and their peo ples not less than Englishmen. Am ericans and others must share in the good things of this earth. ’With out these- though we beat the axis on the field of battle we shall have lost the war. THE HI SSI A N -GERMAN CAMPAIGN The present campaign in Russia presents the grandest scale of mi. itary operations developed thus far in the Second World War. Espec ially is thus true as to the number and deadly power of the machines engaged on the ground and in the air. There have been other batt’.?s in which the numbers killed and wounded have been greater, bur none in which mankind held a great er stake. Here in America we dimly see the approach of the impending doom should the axis powers win thr war. We must see it. and we must utilize all our power and our re sources for the fight which v.e must make. Anyone who can aid should be called to service, now. In this way we can aid to end the campaign in Russia and save what Is left of the earth SCOTTSBORO DEFENDANT IN PRISON AGAIN New York. July 17 (ANP) One of the boys released in the Seottsboro rape case and brought here five years ago awaits sentence in the City prison this week, under $2,500 bond, accused of having annoyed a young woman in Brooklyn. He is Willie Roberson, who has admitted he was one of the Seottsboro ‘de fendants released in 1937, police re port. ___ SCIENCE AGAIN PIERCES RACE MYTH "Washington, July 15 (AXP) That ' racial claims made for propaganda purposes have no anthropological 1 basis was again supported recently I by Dr. John R. Swanton. veteran anthopologist of the Bureau of Am erican Ethnology, in a new public ation of the Smithsonian institution. Even the earliest nations, like Egypt and Babylonia, show no uni formity in racial types, declares Dr. Swanton. There were at least two distinct physical types common in ancient Egypt in addition to the | Mediterrean type commonly thought of as representing the Egyptian race As for modern Germany, the art icle continues, few of the larger na tions of history have less claim to a mystical national unity, despite ! the insistence of claims made by | Nazis. Observing the crowd: Everyons was Tes Indeed. Kenneth Myers was really knocking himself out. WaJterine Wright wore a beautiful blue and white dress she had special ly designed for the dance. She wore a turban to match the outfit was a B_.... and who do you think we found in all that crowd? None oth I er than “pants" in a burnt orange Vogue creation. She was looking ! fine as usual and thrit suit the , ‘Brown'’ cat is wearing... .ne look ! like he’s straight from Chicago when | he pins that fine drapped pin strii>e ! light beige suit. To say nothing of j “Moons" suit....if he ever looked like a moon it was last Tues. nite. 1 ’ because Joe Wright was really look ing fine in his white drapped suit— I We believe it was the only on° i there beside the fine drapped jactcet Joe Milton was modeling, and Her man Franklin had on white drapped | pee drapes, but only Joe had t'ne whole suit, (score). .. .and Just be cause Lawrence Gaskin decided to cut in on Lloyd Gray and Gene"ie Butler had nothing to do with how long Lloyd staved with Genevie anl he really did look fine. Lloyd's pants were thee extreme drapped creation. “Rocking Oliver Hodges” had a ■ little chic from Council Bluffs or j somewhere strung on to him. I don’t imagine Harriet Green like 1 that so well. Guy Rucker kept up with Millie Green, both looking very ] fine. Most every guy there had two or | three chics didn’t they Cappell Cu - tis?. Can you imagine who came out all of a sudden in a drapped suit.. | David Hughes.. he and his chic > came on like a lite. (a dim one.) .... and Simon walked around with two new chics (the cute one wore a stripe sweater boys.) Joyce Blair stayed near Elwood Hicks mos' every session and you can bv betting that Lola was with Mac and Mac was with Meyer S. (who was looking so nice.) Spotted Lawrence Keys, Lloyd Hunter's piano player pickin' up a note to add to his numbers.... he I was speeling to Sally tVells . The whole solid place was packed j like sardines and we are inclined to | believe that Dear old Uncle Sam i has taken all the fighters. Tnere j was not a single fight. We ac> proud of our gang....for once ■ j everyone there was looking their best. A]1 the bys were drapped and all the girls wore those jersey green and white dresses (Was it a bargain k>r a deal.) Oh. it was a few that missed out on that green and white sale and got black and white or red and white. THE DERATION We must not forget to mensirm that not a single couple could cut those patties. Luther Taylor and his wife. Arista were the only couple that could last during the duration CANDY BARS TO EMBARKING ARMED FORCES CHICAGO, ILL.—PIXPAGE—'Yeoman William Demand, of the United States Navy, receiving from Lois Johnson first of the candy bars that are being given by Otto Schnering, president of the Curtiss Candy Com pany to every service man in the United States Armed Forces, as he embarks for foreign service. Each bar is in an especially made package bearing the message, “Good Luck from Curtiss!” First shipment of several thousand bars has been started on its way from plants of Curtiss Candy Company here, to aadisclosed ports for distribution through Armg and Navy channels. j I, personally thought we had some | fine jitterbugs but I changed my j opinions mighty quick. Even Wen dell Jenkins, who has actually loot weight dancing, couldn't cut that | white couple. May we suggest that you cats practice more and talk less and ma bee next time.... ??? Could it have been due to the hard work that our boys are i(v> tired to jitterbug? We wonder!?"' Something went wrong: TRANSPORTATION ... .was a problem. Those who had their own cabs couldn’t find parking space and those who rode public cabs were in there packer. Corners of all downtown wore crowded after the outfit. Cats and Chics looking up cabs.
