ulation: the Caribbean islands
(Jamaica, Haiti, etc.), Brazil with
the whole of South America, and
Africa. In these various regions,
Negroes speak different lan
guages, but in spite of that—the
American Negroes feel instinct
ively in sympathy with their own
blood, the black men of the whole
world.
One ('amp — One Fight
M~For a long time, Africa will
still be under the control of Euro
peans. But in all countries, Negro
es must stand in one camp, fight
ing for freedom and social justice.
“We have not the slightest idea
of Africa, as a united continent of j
Negroes, ever standing against the
other races. No, all of our hope
lies in the development of freedom
in the world. But, meanwhile, Ne
groes should unite and systemat
ically develop their own culture.
The world today is full of barbar-1
ism, and I feel that this united |
Negro culture could bring into the
world a fresh, spiritual, humani-1
tarian principle, a principle of
human friendship and service to
the community.”
Paul Robeson speaks the univer
sal language of the Negro, divided
by the different languages of dif
ferent nations, because he speaks
the universal language of freedom.
So I belive that Private Mel
bcfarne Smith of Brooklyn, Pan
ama, Casablanca (where he was
naturalized) and every other place
where men measure freedom
against the sword, speaks the un
iversal language of freedom.
Most of us don’t know the Latin
American Negroes like Private
Smith who have come to the
United States and settled among
us. But we ought to encourage
more of them to come to this
country since they are not only
good citizens but militant citizens
reflecting the “united Negro cul
ture” which helps “the develop
ment of freedom in the world.”
Thousands of Spanish-speaking
Latin American Negroes from
Puerto Rico live in Lower Harlem.
They occupy the same houses and
attend the same schools with white
Puerto Ricans, and you won’t find
one Uncle Tom among a thousand
of them.
Every two years, the Negro
Puerto Ricans of Lower Harlem go
to the pools with the white Puerto
Ricans and send to Congress a
man who fights in Washington for
the rights of Negroes throughout
the Western hemisphere.
That man is Vito Marcantonio,
world citizen and representative
from the 20th New York district.
Right now, Congressman Mar
cantonio, kept in office by colored
Puerto Ricans, has bills pending
in Washington to abolish the poll
tax which disfranchises the col
ored Americans of the South, to
establish a permanent Fair Em
ployment Practices Committee
which would protect all Negroes in
their job rights, and to grant
Puerto Rico its independence.
Marcantonio is also president of
the Inetrnational Labor Defense
which has saved one Negro after
the other from the gallows and the
lynch pyre. Negroes throughout
Latin America know him, and are
proud of him because he appointed
a Puerto Rican Negro as one of
his secretaries.
My space is getting short so
I’ll wind up with a promise to tell
sometime soon what another Latin
America Negroid group—the Cu
ban tobacco workers of the Florida
coast—are doing to establish de
mocracy down in deep Dixie.
PROBLEMS OF HUMANITY
By Abbe Wallace
L. M. P.—I am married to a
man whom I respect very much.
We get along nicely. He has two
children and I have one. So far we
have no grievances except one. Be
fore marriage I was teaching
school. Since marriage I have ex
pressed my desire to go back to
the profession but my husband
objects. I love the professional
world very much and am also fond
of home life. Tell me what I
should do?
Answer: A mother with the re
sponsibility of three young chil-1
dren should not seek outside em
ployment unless it became abso
lutely necessary. You, as a teacher,
should realize, more than anyone
else, the importance of a mother’s
care and training in the early
years of a child’s life. Your hus
band married you because he loved
you, but he expected you to make
a home for the children as well.
As long as he provides as abund
antly as he does at the present,
you should not think of outside em
ployment. Being a housewife
doesn’t necessarily mean that you
must become martyr and never
have an outside diversion. Make
friends with the teachers there in
the school and take an active in
terest in the Parent Teacher work
and in this way you can keep in
touch with the professional world.
E. M. G.—I met a young man]
from near my home and when we
met he told his age and gave me
his address and I gave him mine.
We write regularly. He is in the
Army. On his own accord he sent
me his photo. His letters are
friendly but he always strats them
with “dearest” and ends “with all
my love.” Now what are his feel
ings for me?
Answer: Friendly, but not the
least bit serious. It is usually the
custom for young men to begin
their letters and end them in the
manner in which he is doing and
you cannot afford to take this as
a mark of love. He’s just another
G. I. who enjoys your letters im
mensely. So much so that he sent<
you his photo and his present plans
are to see more of you in the fu
ture.
D. M. W.—I am 25 years old
and am in love with a married man
who has a family. He loves me and
I love him. I want to marry him.
Should he leave his family or
what must I do?
Answer: If you insist on this
man giving up his family to mar
ry you, your conscience would
bother you for the rest of your
life. You might succeed in fasci
nating him temporarily but it
would wear off in the matter of a
few months as his family is a part
of him and he cannot throw them
aside for any woman. Don’t try to
satisfy your desires at the expense
of innocent children. Give him up
and seek the firendship of some
nice single fellow.
B. B. J.—I have been having
trouble with my husband. I left
and went to California and he in
sisted that I come back. He said
he would do better. Now that I
am back I can’t get him away from
her and she doesn’t allow him to
go out with me any place. He
won’t give me any money and
fusses if I spend the room rent
money on myself. He won’t agree
for me to work and I just don’t
know what to do. He doesn’t tell
me any of his business or what
he makes a week and if I try to
>talk to him about our affairs he
flies all to pieces. Now what
should I do?
Answer: You are going to have
to look at your problem from a
common sense angle. Either he sup
ports you or allows you to go out
and work for yourself. The lat
ter should be preferable as it will
give you the independence neces
sary for you to stand on your own
and to find some source of happi
ness. Evidently he cares for you
or he wouldn’t have insisted on
your returning home. He has be
come so deeply involved with this
woman that he is finding it hard to
free himself from her. Stand on
your own right there at home for
awhile and it will make him take
a different outlook on conditions.
Damascus, Syria, Soundphoto.—
A panoramic view of the city of
Damascus, the oldest still inhab
ited city in the world, in French
mandated Syria, which was shelled
last week. After a virtual ulti
matum from Prime Minister
Churchill to General Charles De
Gaulle a cease fire order for French
forces sounded in the Levant.
New York, Soundphoto.—Allied
strategy in China, according to
military analysts, is designated at
cutting off overland supply route
leading from rich East Indies to
Jap war factories in Japan proper.
Following recent announcement by
Lieut. General Brehon Somerville
that our forces will eventually land
on China coast, Chinese armies
began to step up their attacks
against enemy in anticipation of
such action. When U. S. forces
do effect such landings, analysts
predict that they will drive to meet
Chinese armies now battling east
ward. Large arrows show how
much such a junction would throt
tle complete flow of raw material
and supplies moving overland to
Japan.
Germany.—German prisoners of
war and civilians serving time for
infractions of Allied military gov
ernment regulations are cleaning
up a street in Kitzingen, Germany,
while guarded by infantrymen of
the 394th Infantry Regiment of the
99th Infantry Division.
Edward N. Scheiberling, national
commander of the American Le
gion (right) advises Secretary of
State Stettinius (left) of the Le
gion’s determination to see that a
strong and lasting peace follows
World War II. The Legion com
mander says: “Now that the can
nons roar no longer in Europe there
will emerge from present obscur
ity many organizations and indi
viduals who seek a soft peace, who
would have America retire again
into the false shell of isolationism.
It is our duty, for the sake of
future generations, to warn
against this false and dangerous
doctrine. The forces of the axis
powers must be kept in restraint.
This is not a doctrine of hate, but
the same common sense that pre
vents the criminally insane from

Provide Land With
Nitrogen Regularly
Com Yield Will Be
Materially Increased
AXTHILE farmers can establish a
» V “soil nitrogen bank account,”
it is necessary that they manage
the land on the basis of small nitro
gen deposits made regularly for
withdrawals in the immediate fu
ture, rather than on large deposits
designed to build huge reserves for
use over long periods of time, ac
cording to F. C. Bauer, professor
of soil fertility of the University of
Illinois.
Professor Bauer declared that ex
periments indicated that nitrogen—
one of the most essential plant food
elements—cannot be amassed in
large reserves in the soil for use
during succeeding years of crop pro
duction.
Nitrogen supplies necessary to se
cure attainable yields may be re
stored to the soil previous to grow
ing crops which have large nitro
gen requirements, he added. Crop
rotations must be planned so as to
provide legumes for transferring at
mospheric nitrogen to the soil either
directly or through livestock feed
ing and the use of manure. Such
rotations do much to maintain nitro
gen supplies of the soil, if desirable
legumes are seeded on the same
field once every four or five years,
he pointed out.
Professor Bauer cited results at
the Aledo Soil experiment field in
Mercer county. Here, during the
| /careful henry.'if anything' 'N.
Y HAPPENS TO THIS INA60N YOU CANT )
l GET YOUR FERTILIZER EARLY_'
--- ,--At-'
last 34 years, untreated land has
averaged 58 bushels of corn in a
four-year rotation, consisting chiefly
of corn the first two years followed
by oats and wheat in the absence of
legume crops. The quality and
durability of the soil is evident in
the yield of 61 bushels obtained dur
ing the past four years. But when
sweet clover was seeded in the
wheat and plowed under as green
manure, the long-time average yield
of corn increased from 58 to 78
bushels and from 61 to 102 bushels
an acre during the past four years.
Bauer attributes the increases in
yield to the favorable influence
of sweet clover on the nitrogen sup
plying power of the soil.
Find Vitamin C Aids in
Healing Broken Bones
Broken bones will not heal in the
absence of vitamin C, and even a
slight deficiency slows the healing,
according to experiments just con
cluded by Dr. David M. Greenberg,
professor of biochemistry at the Uni
versity of California.
Dr. Greenberg and associates in
vestigated the healing rates of
broken bones in guinea pigs receiv
ing graded doses of vitamin C.
They found that the bones did not
heal at all when the animals re
ceived so little of the vitamin that
they developed scurvy. With a
somewhat larger dose of vitamin C
the animals had mild scurvy and
the bones healed very slowly. Mild
vitamin C deficiency, known as sub
clinical scurvy, also caused slower
bone healing than in the control ani
mals which had adequate amounts
of vitamin C in their food.
In addition, lack of this vitamin
caused the begttf to become ,more
brittle and to break easier, the
scientists found. Bones of animals
which had mild cases of scurvy had
about two-thirds the strength of
bones of animals with plenty of vita
min C.

Steaming Vegetables
Steaming is a good method for
cooking such vegetables as carrots,
beets, squash, parsnips, sweet pota
toes, okra, and others. Green vege
tables lose much color, however,
when steamed for any length of
time. Steaming requires a special
type of container which many homes
do not have. Cooking by steam in
a pressure saucepan or a pressure
cooker requires the shortest time
for cooking. However, the higher
temperature of steam under pres
sure makes it necessary to use care
and accurate timing to avoid over
cooking. The waterless cooker
steams and cooks with the addition
of little or no water, thus saving
food values.
Any pan of heavy metal, which
allows the heat t<> be evenly dis
tributed and which has a tightly
fitted lid may be used for so-called
waterless cookery, or cooking of
vegetables on top of the stove with
the addition of just enough water to
create steam.
Share Taxes
Of the 48 states levying excise and
sales taxes, 8 share collections
with their municipal governments on
the following basis: California, 50
per cent to cities, counties of origin,
but not available for strictly local
purposes; Massachusetts, reim
bursement of old age assistance'
costs only; New York, nearly 50 per
cent to counties for “wet” communi
ties by population; Oregon, 10 per
cent to “wet” counties of origin;
Rhode Island, 50 per cent to com
munities of origin; South Carolina,
12 cents per gallon spirits where
sold, 12 per cent of beer, wine ex
cise where derived; Tennessee, 4/17
of beer tax to incorporated com
munities; Washington (included in
monopoly receipts) also 50 per cent
of the added 10 per cent war liquor
tax, by population; Alabama in ad
dition shared 75 per cent of addition
al state 1 cent beer tax levied in
Jefferson county wth cities and
towns in that county.
Shotgun Gauges
Comparatively few sportsmen, I
many of whom have been using shot- I
guns for years, know how the sys
tem of naming shotgun gauges
came into existence.
Back in the muzzle-loading days
round balls of lead were used in
shotguns. One sportsman would like
a gun of a certain type—another
would like another type. After a
number of years standard gauges
were adopted by gun mai ' i turers
Those gauges were has-- >o the
number of spherical tesC oalls
which would fit into the muzzle of a
gun_and weigh one pound For in
stance. the 12 gauge shotgun got its
designation because 12 round pel
lets of lead which would fit in its
bore would, grouped together, weigh
a pound.
The same applies to the way in
which other gauges, such as the 16,
the 20, the 28 and others, got their
names.
