C.A at i7th and Harney. Mr. W.
H. Mead, General Secretary of
the Omaha YMCA gave an inter
esting report from the National
council of i MCA conference held
in Atlantic City. A special interest
to the group present at the con
ference was the attitude taken
under the subject “Imperatives in
Reconversion” dealing with part
icularly the Negro and minority
group integration in the YMCA.
The following paragraph was
read before the National Council:
The YMCA has a special obliga
tion to iSuf courageouss.*/ tne
place of Negroes and other min
ority racial groupings in its mem
bership. The pattern followed in
the YMCA has been that of the
United States generally; to deve

pattern as a final answer in a
Christian organization has been
challenged by -many in the YMCA
over a period of years. For more

WITHIN OUR GATES
(By Myrtle Goodlow)
Adolph Hitler has the right to
snicker an^ grin
For he said he could divide us
from within
From Mein Kampf page four O,
Two
From the foot notes I quote:
"It is hoped sympathy for the
Nazi cause would be awakened
in the southland
And it Seems Bilbo, Rankin and
Eastland
Are doing all they can to promote
the program
And Americans stand idly by and
do not ask why
They are allowed to preach racial
prejudice and hate with in
our own United States
I believe Hitler is living and from
his hideaway is giving
Orders which are being obeyed
By his henchmen who are not
afraid
For they know they have loyal
support
In each evil under handed effort
From haters of Negroes, Catholics
and Jews
To carry on the program they
choose
God neid America if her citizens
are content
To let the men who help run our
Government
Cast their stones from our
National Capitol in Washington
And stir up hatred and strife and
disrupt our American way of life
We know they are our country’s
foe when they show their
contempt
For the Declaration of American
Independence
That all men are created free and
equal and have the right to
life, liberty, and the pursuit
of happiness
And if men in our Government
are allowed to desecrate the
hallowed principles of our
American forefathers
Who wit:i firm reliance on the
protection of Divine Prividence
Pledged their lives, fortunes and
sacred honor to uphold them
Then this country is done for and
on the downward r°ad to
destruction
Furthermore, Almightly God
from one blood all men
To dwell upon the face of the
earth
And commanded them to love me
as a brother
And in God's light no mans’ creed
nor birth
Gives him a special deed to any
one part of God’s great earth
And since all men are brothers
When we dig a ditch for otners
Dig one for ourselves too
For we shall be the first to step
into the trap
into the trap which we have set
Eastland, Rankin, an^ Bilbo
The would be Pharaohs of our day
Shall also reap their just pay
Through prejudice and hate they
sealed their own fate
In this world and in the next
For this is the text 1 John 3:15
‘‘Whosoever hateth his brother is
i murderer and ye know that no
murderer hath entered eternal life
abiding in Him”.

New York—The NAACP has
been informed that Eugene Ft. Le

the association’s lawyers wrote the
Commanding General of the Eu
ropean Theatre of Operations, has
had his sentence for rape entirely
vacated, and all his rights, privi

him.
Lewis wrote the NAACP from
Germany, and his wife wrote from
Columbus, Ga. Fie had been found
euilty and sentenced to death. The
NAACP attorneys wrote the gen
eral :
A sursory reading of the record
shows that on the night of the
alleged crime, two other soldiers
also participated in the same act
at the same time, and with same
woman and that these two un
named soldiers were also tried by
a court martial sitting at the same
place on the same afternoon of
the same day as that of the trial
of Lewis.
These two soldiers, tried on sub
stantially the same set of facts,
were acquitted.
