Senator Filibuster doesn’t want ten million American citizens in eight Southern states- to vote. It means little to him that the poll tax holds back the war effort. It’s nothing to him that our — enemies use the poll tax to discredit us among our colored Allies “ j Senator Filibuster doesn’t like anybody who tries to make democracy work. Senator Filibuster was “elected” by a hand ful of voters. A “permanent” politician, he keeps coming back to Congress term after term ... and he has a death-like grip on important Congressional committees. In the last Congress, he killed the Geyer-Pepper anti-poll tax bill in the Senate after it passed the House. He has threatened to filibuster again this fall—for 15 months if necessary—to keep the Senate from voting on HR 7, the anti-poll tax bill which passed the House in May of this year by 265-110. YOU PERSONALLY CAN LICK SENATOR FILI BUSTER. His endless speech making can be stopped. It is called invoking cloture and it takes a 2/3 vote of the Senators. Millions of Negro American citizens must write i their Senators to vote for cloture—and CONTINUE to vote for cloture until debate IS limited. In September, the Senate comes back to Washington to go to work. If you, your friends, and every Negro organization write their Senators today to vote for cloture and passage of HR 7, the poll tax and Senator Filibuster will go down to defeat. MAKE DEMOCRACY WORK. ASK YOUR SENATORS TO VOTE JTOR j CLOTURE AND PASSAGE OF HR 7. (' For further information communicate with the NATIONAL COMMITTEE TO ABOLISH THE POLL TAX 10 Independence Avenue • 1 Washington 4, D.

Who Does Your Thinking? by KITH TAYLOR “Hold on” you are going to say. I “I do my own thinking. No one tells me what to say!” Perhaps that is true—but is it your head or your- heart or your cussedness that dictates what you think? We are no nation of regimented | slaves. What restrictions we have j placed upon us. What regulations 1 we obey, we accept of our own free . will. They are OUR laws, and we j will obey them because they are traffic signals at a langerous curve in tho road. We are no nation of group think ers—an American Europe, drawn each way by conflicting interests ' and hamstrung at every turn by j barriers of age-old misunderstand ings. We are free men who coop erate but who do not belong in groups. Under our demociatic form of government, we are free to determine our own thoughts, rind, that implies a personal responsi bility as to what we let rule our thoughts—our head, our heart or our cussedness. When our head rules, we can think calmly and dispassionately and determine what is the logical course to pursue for our own !n terest. When our heart rules, we follow our emotions, too often mis taking the will’o the-wisp of fancy for the steady flame of idealism. iWhen our cussedness rules, we o bey our prejudices—prejudices bas ed on lack of knowledge of our brothers’ needs or motives. Just as we need three branches of government to check the usurp tion of power by any one, so we need to let the three—head, heart and cussedness—rule our thoughts. Unquestionably we must first think with our heads, for we need clear and logical thought. We need to face and assimilate facts, to be realistic and practical in time of national tension. But we must also think with our hearts, that we may add the leaven of compassion to our thoughts, that we may have faith and hope and charity, that we may work in harmony with our fellow Americans because we think in harmony with them. To these two we must add the spice of cussedness, turning it from personal prejudices against peopl0 to an active determination to fight athing— an evil which seeks to di vide and disrupt, to set religion a gain religion, race against .-ace, class against class—and color a gainst color—an evil which socks to control by destruction of nat unity which is democracy. Who does your thinking? You are but one—but as YOU and YOU knd YOU think, so will the nation act. The responsibility is grsat— and it is up to you! i- . ir- if=- —i •IT PAYS TO LOOK WELL’ MAYO’S BARBER SHOP Ladies and Children’s Work A Specialty 2422 LAKE ST. t=. HE—11 11=-■ CONSTIPATED? Don't Force! Don't Strain— Thus Risking Hemorrhoids TRY THIS FOR 5 DAYS Here’s one right and proper way to moist en hard dry passages and obtain more gen tle “easy” movements. Every morning for 5 days, 15 minutes before breakfast, drink a glass of hot water to which one teaspoon fUl of Kruschen Salts has been added. While you are eating breakfast the hot water and Kruschen will be feeding moisture to those bard, dry passages. They become soft, moist, easier to expel. No need to strain and thus risk painful rectal Irritation. Usu ally within 30 minutes wastes are expelled smoothly and gently. You feel gloriously fresh again.
