X. Big Job Faces Every
Nebraskan.
Omaha, Nebraska, Dec. 11 (Spec
al)—By looking at a statement re
eased last week from the Nebraska
Tuberculosis Association, every Ncb
askan should realize how big is the
,ob that faces him between now and
Christmas.
The Association, which began its
L'hristrras Seal Sale last month, has
announced that its goal for the 1044
Seal Sale is $112,000 for Nebraska.
That figure is the highest ever asked
in the annual sale of Christmas Seals
The reason for the record amount
Is not without basis, the Association

there is no substi- \ V

we are making a
little less beer, using
the same top quality
ingredients and skill
ful brewing that won
Storz Beer four world's
championships. Occa
sionally your dealer
may be out of Store.
But you can be sure
the Storz Beer you do
buy will have that
famous old slow-aged
flavor . . . Just the
way you like it.

said.
Because now, during a war when
most citizens usually are working
more hours, perhaps getting less
sleep, living in crowded and inade
quate quarters, and meeting difficult
problems in nutrition, tuberculosis i«
••-tore liable to strike.
And to guard against that possible
attack, the Association is asking ev
ery Nebraskan to buy Christmas
Seals, the sole support of the Assoc
iation, which conducts a year-rotwd
fight against the “white plague.”
For the benefit of those who wnn
'< r how the money received from
Christmas Seals is spent, the Assoc
iation offers this partial report
Christmas Seals pay for :
1- Tuberculin skin-testing in the
schooles and colleges and X-rays
tor discoevry of early tuberculosis.
*?. Tuebrculosis educational literat
ure for use in schools. 3. Nurses
to arrange for and assist at clinics.
*• Nurses to make home calls. 5.
Free literature and films to promote
health education on the prevention of
tuberculosis. 6. Cooperation with
the State Health Dept, educational
•.ork ana X-ray program in industry.
Some follow-up on rejected noi
.ary draftees- 8. Organization for
• urther development of the TB con
roi program throughout the state.
'n short, Christmas Seals pay for
the „aucational program of prevent
ion and early diagnosis of tubercul
osis, the Association said.
And, the Association emphasized,
he tuebrculosis program will be a3
■telpless as Tokyo under a B-29 un
less that $112,000 goal is reached.
The money you pay for Christmas
Seals, Association officials said, will
be used in Nebraska. They pointed
out that 95 percent of the Nebraska
Seal money stays right at home,
while five percent goes to the Nat
ional Association for research work
and consultation service to the stater

A Message to the
Christmas
Shoppers

hit the retail merchant just as it has hit all lines
of business, big and small. . So the cry goes out—
HELP! HELP! HELP! Well, help who? Help
yourself as well as the retail merchant. How?
—By going today and do just as much of your
| Christmas shopping as you can afford to do. Yes,
TODAY and every day from now on... If you
wait until those last four days, somebody Is go
ing to be left holding the bag. So, my Christmas
Shopper, it is a duty you owe to yourselfe and
others, to help avoid Christmas shopping infla
I tion.
Remember if you please, it takes sixteen
j hands to furnish the service to sell you one little
I small pocket handkerchief.
Listen, friend Christmas Shopper.. .You
! have loved ones on the firing lines and you want
them to return home safe and sound, don’t you?
Yes, we know you do and that is what we are try
ing all the time to tell you... It takes 14,000 pairs
of hands to keep one soldier supplied with food
and the necessary equipment to protect himself !
with and1 do your fighting. So it is your duty to
cooperate with the retail merchant to the extent
wherein every man and woman who is now help i
ing to supply your soldier boy or girl, to stay on |
the war production line. So please adhere to the
retail merchant’s request and start now, today,
to do your Xmas shopping. Help keep what help
they have busy every hour in the day.' Avoid the
rush hours. Shop between 10 a. m. and 4 p. m.

and the Memorial Park association
will be dissolved. A citizens’ advis
ory comittee will be appointed by the
city council to aid in the development
of the park.
The park will be in a nature of
arboretum with beautiful trees, flow
ers and fountairr all dedicated to
Omaha’s service men and women of
World War II.
“No city will have a more beauti
ful entrance or more fitting memor
ial to the heroes of the war than
this,” Mr- Campbell said.
Walter S. Byrne and W. Otto
Swanson each predicated that the
campaign for funds would be suc
cessful.
“This Memorial Park has captur
ed the interest and approvaJL of the
people of Omaha,” Mr. Byrne said
“It is the first fund raising campaign
I’ve ever worked on in which I am
offered larger contributions than I
asked for.”
The good start reported today is
evidence that we in Omaha willingly
back any project such as this which
is good for our city’s welfare and de
velopment,” Mr. Swanson said. “I
am confident that we will find the
people of Omaha anxious to have a
part in this Memorial Park.
In passing out the prospect cards
to the team workers Ellsworth Mo
ser, finance chairman, urged that the
solicitation for the initial gifts be
completed before Februairy 1. When
this part of the campaign is complet
ed, he said, a city-wide campaign will
be conducted to receive contributions
from everybody.
General C. H. Danielson, com
manding officer of the Seventh Ser
vice Command, also spoke briefly
commending Omaha for getting be
hind the Memorial Park project,
which he said was a splendid living
tribute to Omaha’s men and women
who have served in the war.
NAACP MAKES NEW
PROPOSALS TO STRENGTHEN
FEPC AT HEARINGS.
New York—Suggestions for revis
ing and strengthening the proposed
New York state FEPC bills were
made here December 6, by Thurgood
Marshall, special counsel of the NA
ACP, in testimony ebfore the State
commission against discrimination,
which held a three day hearing in the
Bar association building at 42 West
44th street
The most important point raised by
Marshall was with reference to the
language dealing with the extent to
which the Supreme Court would go
into the findings of fact by the Com
mission. Marshall said that if the
proposed language, “the findings of
fact by the Commission shall be con
clusive only if supported by a fair
preponderance of the evidence,” was
perimtted to become law there would

j be endless litigation upon the facts,
! which in the final analysis would nec
essitate returning to the same Com
mission for another determination
which in most cases would be the
same, assuming that the original find
ings by the Commission were based
upon rational deductions. It was
suggested that the language as found
in the State Labor Relations Act
be aodpted, namely, ‘The finding of
the Commission as to the facts, if
supported by evidence, shall be con
clusive.”
In testimony, Marshall suggested
that Section 125 of the proposed Act
titled, “Purposes of Article" should
include a statement of “findings and
policy" in relation to the effect in
► this state. Asserting that the Assoc
iation feels real need for such a state
ment, he said, “it will set the tone
for the Commission and establish
certain basic facts for judicial con
sideration in interpreting the law."
It was recommended that the Com
mission adopt the language under
Section 706-2 bf the State Labor Re
lations Act in preference to that out
lined in the proposed Act under ‘Pro
cedure.’ It was also pointed out that
the language contained in the State
Labor Relations Act would permit a
complaint to be filed by anyone ra
ther than limited to the aggrieved
party. This suggested addition
would also permit “within the discre
tion of the Commision”, any party to
intervene for the purpose of giving
testimony, or file a memorandum.
Marshall stated that the NAACP
approved of the Commission recog
nizing the opportunity to obtain em
ployment as a civil right but sub
mitted that in his opinion in order to
fully protect this right and all oth
ers flowing form Constitutional guar
antees it would be necessary to set
up a Civil Rights Bureau within the
Attorney General’s department.
