They don't speak out when they should, for fear of of fending someone of importance to them. They don't want to “hurt people’s feelings”, by telling a bold and unpleasant truth. They are willing to compromise with issues in order to gain a point. They are warped by prejudices and swayed by their likes and dis likes. The man v/ithout price, the in corruptible man, is a man above price. He has an anchor in his principles. He is not moved by fear or favor. He stands on truth as he sees it, and he is strong in the hour of crisis. He is depend able in both small and large things and his word is good because it is never given carelessly. The incorruptible man is not afraid. He will speak out against evil wherever it exists. But he will not condemn his fellow men without dus cause, .and then nev er misjudge a group by the action i or opinions of one man. He holds j no unreasoning prejudices. He i treats his fellow men as individ ; uals and respects their beliefs as he demands respect for his own.

LIGHTON “News of The j and Reviews" One of the all-time ‘greats’ in the jazz world, Louis “Satchmo” Armstrong has re-apeared on wax for RCA Victor following an ab sence of several years. Sounding off last month with “No Variety Blues” and “Whatta Ya Gonna Do" the celebrated trumpeter now has another pair of winners, with his own original “Back O’Town Blues’ on the initial side. In a low-down saga telling of that woman who lives ‘back o’town’, Armstrong’s husky-voiced vocalizing and cry stal-clear trumpet tones are show cased to excellent advantage. The reverse side, “Linger Longer in My Arms", is sung with hearty sincerity by Satchmo with some solid jamming from the band boys. Rapidly climbing into a top disc groove with theirr renditions of the mellow blues type of tunes as well as the torrid, fast paced jive numbers. Erskine Hawkins and his Band round out the melodic line of an irrestible slow drag pair of ballads, “Don’t say you’re Sor ry Again” and ‘I’ve Got a Right to Cry”. The band acccents the relaxed tempo of these tunes, with Hawkin’s horn sounding loud and clear above the full-bodied brass arrangement. Jimmy Mitchelle de livers th e“Sorry Again” vocal with genuine felling, while Haw kins’ new singing find, Laura Wa shington, carries the lyrics on ‘Got a Right to Cry’. She displays an impressive vocal styling on this, her initial waxing. to sell at church fairs and it was only hen faced with the necessity for larger income in order to in sure a college career for her son that she decided to turn this pro fitable hobby into a full time bus iness. Since that time ‘‘I never failed yet to deliver a box of candy at the time I promised", she told Headlines and Pictures. As head of the Nanette Candy Company Mrs. Anderson believes her success is due in large part to the race 'Dride of Negroes who have been her greatest boosters. At present she has one veteran working as an apprentice in her business and would like to hire others when more materials are available, she told Headlines and Pictures.

YOUNG INDUSTRY There are quite a few ambitious youngsters on the downtown streets, selling papers and shining shoes. For their industry they should be praised.

Theatrical editors of six of the largest Negro newspapers will act as judges in selecting the win ners of the nationally famous con t-p't which attracted thousands of swing fans who cast their lots in the interesting competition. Hampton, who just closed a ter rific four weeks engagement at Chicago's celebrated Band Box in the loop, set a new pace for en tertainment and initiated a new location for Negro name bands. The maestro stated that over_ entries have been received in the contest from points as far as South Africa and Japan. ‘‘Hey Ba Ba Rebop” soared to a new high shortly after its intro duction and record sales have passed the million mark to set Decca and Hamp-Tone Discs out in front with top tunes. The Gladys Hampton Hamp Tone Records version, with Wy nonie “Mr. Blues” Harris himself, featured on the vocals of parts 1 and 2 of the popular platter, is :halked up as a solid sender. and turning it over to meat deal ers at regular intervals,” the Com mittee states. First National Stores meat de partments competed with others for prizes, which were awarded to those stores securing the largest amoung of used fats per dollar of meat department sales in the four week period of the contest. The 28 percent increase in used fat collections seems to indicate that women reslpond quickly to their meat dealer's urgings to save and turn in salvage fats, accord ing to the American Fat Salvage Cammittee. Unless every housewife saves and turns in her used cooking fats, as much as a month's supply of soap in the course of a year may be jeopardized. For while the present availability of soap may be considerably less than the pu blic would Ike, it can only be maintaned through the continued effort of American women in their kitchens, concludes the Committee.

By Edna Mae McIntosh > “If I didn’t have to treat the mothers as well as the babies, I'd spend about one-third the time 1 now do on my practice.” These are the words of a woman pedia trician. who is also a successful homemaker and the mother of two handsome, well adjusted, teen-age children. This baby specialist did not have reference to the physical ills of mothers but to various per sonality traits which complicate the picture, with either the well or sick baby. The above observation is typical of the attitude expressed today by leaders in all fields of child care. A quick glance through newspaper and magazine articles devoted to this subject indicates a shift of the re»ponsibility for behavior prob lems from babies to parents. “Ma ternal Overprotection’’ was the title of a paper recently read be fore a southern medical convention. Over-anxiety, competition with other mothers and babies, too rigid adherence to schedule and feeding direction, confused ideas of child care (due to multiple sources of advice) and poor examples set by family members all tend to com plicate the situation. One physi cian has expressed the opinion that the top factor, leading to the over solicitous attitude, is the mother’s desire to manage and direct com pletely the child who for the time being is the mother’s whole world. No group in the world is more 'sympathetic to the genuine^ prob i lem« of motherhood than the medi , cal profession. No amount of time and inconvenience is too much to give when the baby’s welfare is really at stake. But in this dav. when a shortage of physicians still exists, wouldn’t it be well for most mothers to consider if she is really a help or a hindrance to her baby’s doctor? Were you an “overpro tecting mother” today?

I ' ) NEW YORK—To He acc - - ley goes the credit for the contin uing exodus of young men into 1! ■» West. It was his blunt. "Go Wc~t, young man. Go West!” that in fluenced the destiny of countless migratory souls who poured into the uncharted regions to grow up with the country. Not having been around when the great Greeley uttered the words that started the human stampede it is difficult for me to know exactly what he meant or why he was moved to speak the words that were to change the course of history. However, I was very much on the scene when the affable brothers Pasquale extend ed a cordial invitation to all of the ballplaying gentry to hit the trail for south of the border, and happy I am about it too, for I am priveleged to see the American way really working in a part of America. When the Pasquale brothers really got going on their program to build baseball in their native land, they didn’t handicap their efforts by asking the color of a man’s skin, but they did show anyone who was interested, the color of their money. They intro duced a new angle into the big game by giving the boys who did the work and drew the crowds a fair hunk of the profits instead of utilizing the system of paying off with glamour and newspaper clip pings. At the moment, the Mexican League is doing very nicely, thank you, and the oolor line, which seems to be the major distinction of the American game, is no where in evidence. A negro short-stop by the name of Dandridge is the talk of the eight team circuit, and he is a hero to the Mexican fans who are warmly demonstrative and can outdo Brooklyn fans in en thusiasm when they have some thing to shout about. Mickey Owen, who has been on the big time long enough to know whf(t he is talking about says there are at least a dozen Negro players on Mexican teams who could go into the line-up of any of the American or National League teams and make good witkoat a warm-up. • LADIES.
