(by RUTH TAYLOR) Watch out! Don’t slacken! Don’t let the dazzling rainbow of victor ies won blind us to the fact that the storm is not yet over, that the clouds are still dark above us. The end is not yet. Now is not the time to let down our efforts and start scrabbling for the prizes of peace. This war is going to last a long time, no matter when the hos tilities may end. War is not just the time of fighting, but also the time it takes to struggle back to a normal way of living. The end is not yet. We cannot win the war by over-confidence. We cannot assume that the game is over, just when the play begins to run our way. The decision will come at the end of the game when the last play has been made and the last battle fought. We cannot leave the field until the final sec ond of the game. We cannot win by wishing. We have advanced this far by sacrifice. How great a sacrifice we are learn ing as the casualty lists pour In— the lists not of rich or poor, work er or student. Black or White, Ca tholic, Protestant or Jew—but sim ply of Americans who died for A merica.

We must have neither idle hours nor idle dollars. But money is not o nough. Production is not enough. Men are not enough. We must add to these extra effort, that all essential will to win. I We must not allow ourselves to be caught by Axis inspired propa ganda. We must not be tellers of tales or spreaders of rumor. We must not be disseminators of hat red toward any of our own people, regardless of class, race, creed or color. We must put aside selfish aims for the food of all the people. The end is not YET. We have set a goal for ourselves in the Four Freedoms. We do not want any thing FROM any other nation. We want only FOR other peoples that same freedom which we claim for ourselves—the freedom of speech, expression and religion, the free dom from want and fear. Until these are established for all the peoples of all the earth, the war is not over. The end is not yet. The road lies ahead. It will be rough in many places. It will go through valleys of depression, skirt danger ous precipes, descend perhaps into quagmries of temporary defeat — but at the end it will lead, we are confident, to victory and to ulti mate peace for all the peoples of all the earth. SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS (continued from pi) appeal for decency and justice in North America and for the darker people of the world as the one supreme challenge of Baptist and Christians around the world. As he sat down the notables on the platform rose as one man, and swarmed around him, to shake his hand or just to shout, “bravo”. Dr. Jernigan .presiding, got to his feet and with the dignity of his years stepped to the microphone and slyly ,but loudly announced, “Now don’t you oldsters try to break up the young folks meeting.” LEGISLATIVE ACCOMPLISH MENTS A six hour long testimonial was tendered this venerable man of God by the Sunday School Con gress.

Before and after they do their bit for the war effort in a factory or office job or volunteer workroom, they take over as kit chen soldiers in the battle to pro vide a tempting, nourishing family diet, in spite of shortages, rationing and high prices. Good news to the double-duty home soldier is the fact that quick frozen fruits and vegetables have low point values in ration coupons.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT MUST ACT. Every important colored organ ization last week Urged President Roosevelt to broadcast a challenge to the American people to keep peace and fight for unity and rac ial adjustments in war plants and at army camps. The National Ne gro Council led off in a gTeat cit izens’ rally in Chicago on June 20 at Metropolitan Community church and memoralized the Nation’s Chief Executive to speak out a gainst the terrorism at Camp Stew art, Georgia, and Camp Can Dorn, Mississippi, the riotings and burn ings at Beaumont, Texas. The wire had hardly reached the White oHuse before the holocaust of the fourth city was set off by the in cident at Belle Island on the bridge between Detroit and that cooling and refreshing summer resort, which in this instance only set hot passions aflame. The smoldering resentments and pretests of color ed war workers denied homes in the Federal City, built by tl2,000; 000 of federal housing funds burst out in rioting and bloodshed. The Klu Klux Klan elements long held at bay, embraced this opportunity to reek vengeance on every lone colored man spotted out of the neighborhood of Hasting Street. The federal authorities must be b urned and John E. Blandford Jr., the administrator in Washington should be ousted by President F.oosevelt. WHITE HOUSE MAINTAINS SILENCE OF SPHINX The NAACP. In a report publish ed throughout the country added that the President spoke following the Detroit riots and a personal visit here by Walter White. The leaders of the National Ne gro Insurance Association ,the Na tional Baptist Convention, the Bis hop’s Council, the March on Wash ington Movement and the great Ne gro Newspaper Publishers Associa-! tion joined in the appeal for action to the Commander in Chief. An executive order abolishing jim-crow cars and every form of discrimin ation in the armed services and war plants was the burden of Col ored Americans telegrams by the ten thousands, to Washington from everywhere, North and South. To all these sincere and imperative 24Ui AND LAKE STREETS PRESCRIPTIONS —Free Delivery_ WE. 0609 DUFFY r','“M',v pleads for justice for 13,000,000 Col ored Americans, the President only turned a deai ear, as far as any official steps being taken to right the wrongs of segregation and dis crimination. GOVERNOR’S CONFERENCE ACTS. As a result of the present wav* of race rioting, north and south, a plea was presented by the National Negro Council Joined in by many colored business and religious lead ers to the Governor’s Conference, which was in convention last week at Columbus, Ohio. The NNC’s proposal of State Race Commiss ions was considered immediately in executive session by the Gov ernors of forty eight states, thru the good offices of Governor John C. Bricker, the entertaining host. The State Race Commission plan is patterned after the program set. in motion by the late Governor Frank O. Lowden, of Illinois, fol lowing the race riots in Chicago after World War I.
