leagues. The door is open through
which Negro players may enter the
field of national league baseball, but
of course, the door will not stay
open automaticaly, states Randolph.
It is up to the Negroes themselves
with the support of their liberal
white friends to keep the door opeA
and open it wider. Now is the time
for the Negroes to make their fight
and bid for players in major prof
essional baseball. The reason for
this is that a large number of the
white ace players are going into the
army and the same condition main
tained in the baseball field main- j
tains in other business and profess
ional enterprises, namely, the de
mand s greater than the supply. If
Negroes are not able to break nto
the major leagues now while the
war is on, when the war is over,
there will be practically little hope
and opportunity because all of the
players that are now in the army
will be back looking for jobs. But
when once the Negro players break
through the barriers of race and
color and make good, and of course,
they will because of their talent and
competescy, a place in major lea
gue baseball will have been made
for the Negro, comments Mr. Rand
olph.
Some of the biggest salaries rec
eived in the country are received by
white baseball players who are not

It is a matter of common know

and white baseball players meet in
Cuba, New York, and Chicago and
different cities in semi-professional
Baseball- But usaully it’s in the
form of a full Negro Baseball team.
We do not want Negroes to enter
the major eagues in the manner of
a Negro Baseball team. We want
them integrated into every Baseball
Club in the country as pitchers

pitchers. This can be done and now
is the time for Negroes to make an
effective fight for it.

ASKING YOUR CONSIDERATION
AT THE BAKLOT BOX ON HIS
RECORD OF SERVICE
Most Omahans today accept their
Metropolitan Utilities District which
supplies the city with gas and wat-'
er service, as rather commonplace
or ordinary because it renders its
services so methodically, year after
year. Just like the front door, or
the kitchen sink, it is taken for
granted.
But to those outside of Omaha,
People interested in the utility bus
iness throughout America, this in
stitution is looked upon as an out
standing example of a well-manag
ed, non-politcal, publicly-owned util
ity. For example, Omaha has for
several years enjoyed the lowest
manufactured gas rate in America.
Allan A. Tukey, one of the pres
ent Directors of the Metropolitan
Uitilities District, is making his bid
for re-election as a Republican mem
ber of the board on the strength of
the long record of good business
management which has character
ized this institution during his as
sociation with it. Mr. Tukey ha*
always favored the policy of pass
ing along to the public rate reduct
ions during his term of office- Mr.
Tukey has also stood for fair pro
motion of those employees who
showed ability and who, like him
self, have made it a point to know
thoroughly the gas and water busi

ness so that the Omaha public
should enjoy efficient, dependable
service
That long-range planning and
careful attention to good business
practice have been the rule during
Mr. Tukey’s public service on the
District Board is brought out in
he recent retirement of all bonded
indebtness in the Water Depart
ment. In 1912, when the city ac
quired the water plant and distrib
ution system, a bonded debt of $7,
500,000 was incurred. Last Decemb
er 15th the remaining outstanding
water bonds, in the amount of S2.
668,000, were retired leaving the wa
ter property debt-free.
To accomplish this, it was neces
sary to pursue a conservative policy
straining every effort to see that
increasingly large amounts were
put aside in the debt retirement
fund. When this was done, the
Board immediately set in motion an
other long-range program for the
benefit of Omaha water users. A
$2,200,000 five year improvement pro
-gram was started to rehabilitate
and expand the water system. This
work had been held off to a large
extent during the years while the
directors were performing the
double task of paying'off the bond
ed indebtness and reducing rates.
Republican voters interested in
maintaining efficient business man
agement in the Metropilitan Utilit
ies District are urged to vote for
Allan A. Tukey on August 11th. Al
though this is primaries day for
most candidates, it is election day
for this office. Each major party
automatically elects a Director
when it nominates its candidate.
WHY KELSO MORGAN SHOULD
BE ELECTED COUNTY
ATTORNEY
Kelso Morgan should be nomin
ated for County Attorney because:
He is the best qualified candidate
in the race. He has had the widest
experience as a lawyer. He is a
man of character and integrity. He
has the required judicial tempera
ment. He is an excellent trial law
yer. He will prosecute alll violators
of the law to the limits of the law,
but he will protect with equal abil
ity and courage all persons who are
wrongfully brought before the bar.
He will be faced with many intric
ate legal problems during his term
of office involving taxation and
other problems of the administra
tion of County Government. To
deal wi ththem, rM. Morgan is the
best equipped man seeking this of
fice. No one capable of intelligent,
fair, judgement will venture any
other statement.
In the public interest, Mr. Morg
an should be nominated on the 11 th
of August. Intelligent, self-inter
est requires it of the whole people
in general and of the Colored peo
ple, in particular.

BIOGRAPHY OF HARRY B.
COFFEE
Harry B. Coffee was bom 0n a
cattle ranch in Sioux County, Neb
raska, fifty-two years ago-, of pion
eer parents. He graduated from
the University of Nebraska in 191.’.
After establishing a successful real
estate and insurance business, which
he has conducted in Chadron, he
organized and became president of
the Coffee Cattle oCmpany in 1914,
which now has extensive range
holdings in Sioux County, Nebras
ka- He volunteered and served in,
i World War 1 as a Second Lieuten
ant in the Air Service- Mr. Coffee
served eight years as a member of
the important House Agricultural
Committee ,an dis now serving his
fourth consecutive term on Congress
In 1935 he was married to Kathar
ine Newbranch Douglas, and he is
the author of the present Federal
Seed Labeling Act and is largely re
sponsible for the legislation author
izing removal of surplus agricultur
al products through relief channels
and subsidized exports. The Food
Stamp Plan was the result of this
legislation. He also sponsored the
1941 amendment which made avail
able to farmers 85 percent or parity
loans.
The following quotations are
some of his beliefs. “Today the
one great objective of the American
people, regardless of occupation or
party, is to win the war. We must
win it to preserve our liberties, our
property rights and national exis
ence.”
“We must crush the Axis powers
before these ruthless and imperial
istic forces can assimilate into their
war machine the resources and the
hundreds of millions of people now
being brought under their depot
ism.’’
“When the war is Over, we must
speedily return to democratic proc
esses of government and extricate
ourselves from the war-born grip of
a controlled economy.”
Concerning the ability to serve
his statement, Rep. Harold D. Cool
ey (Dem. N. C.) recently said of Mr.
Coffee: “Harry B. Coffee is a train
ed, sincere, able and distinguished
stateman, who apreciates fully the
magnitude Of the great problems
with which our nation is at this
hour confronted.”
He has never been willing to sac
rifice principles for political exped
iency or for fleeting poularity. By
background, training, experience,
character an dby every yardstick
by which the measurements of a
real man are taken, he is well qual
ified to serve the people of his
State in the United States Senate.
He did everything within his
power to keep his State in the Uni
ted States Senate
He did everything within his pow
er to keep this nation out of war,
yet he did everything within his
power to prepare it for a just de
fense against all attacks.
Not only has Harry Coffee sought
to protect this nation from enemies
both within and without, but he has
made great contributions to the1
cause of American agriculture. The
livestock producers in the nation
have no better friend in Congress
than Harry Coffee.”

United States Senator.
