Members of this delegation, representing hundreds of Negro workers from all over the country, declared that they were being “taxed without representation.” THROl 4,11 “CLOSED MEMBERSHIPS” AND “CLOS ED SHOP” CONTRACTS, NEGROES ARE DENIED EMPLOYMENT IN MANY TRADE UNIONS. If Constitutional Amendment 302 is passed, the Negro worker will have new independence of decision und action! In trades where Negroes are now admitted to “auxiliary” membership hut DENIED A VOICE IN I NlON AFFAIRS, they will Ik- aide to resign from the union if they desire and still retain their jobs. This wvnild place Negroes in an excellent bargaining position in order to win and hold their just rights. In trades which are now closed to Negroes because closed shop unions will not admit them to membership, Negroes will, under Antendment 302, be able to gain employ ment without haring to beg for union membership! 302 TAKES AWAY NONE OF LABOR’S JUST RIGHTS It merely provides that no worker can be FORCED to join a union against his will or be FIRED because he does join a union. /-' Vote 3021 X Yes END THE DISCRIMINATORY “Closed Shop” IN NEBRASKA Right To Work Committee C.

It is clear that if retailers would cooperate by refusing to stock meat at the present inflated wholesale prices the price situation could be crack ed in short order. Frankly, the retailer and con sumer both stand to lose from in flated prices. High prices restrict consumer purchasing power and retailers quickly feel the pinch while consumers lose because the value of their dollar shrinks. Housewives can and will bring prices down but retailers could ra pidly accelerate the downward spiral by supporting their strike. —Mrs. F. J. Gallagher, chairman Housewives League • • * GIRL SCOUT NOTES Girl Scouts of Troop 62 had a jolly busy meeting Monday, Oct. 28th at the Urban League.

I have been trying for months to find a hat but I look horrid in these new shaped hats. I don’t know what I am going to do!”. The answer is simple. Just ar range the hair to suit the hat. The face, the hat and the hair must combine to make a harmon izing whole. In most cases we find no fault with the face and the hats are beautiful. What we need is a simple re-arrangement of the hair style. Perhaps you have a high fore head. The answer is bangs and bangs of all varieties are the or der of the day. ‘‘Forward moving” waves or rolls of curls placed at the front hair line, are very wel come. If you need any help, why not drop in and have a friendly chat with us? Our staff of efficient hair stylists are ever ready to suggest and assist you in the ar rangement of the latest and most becoming hair styles.

There’s somebody at the piano; a guitar; a fiddle player; and Molly Birtles even has a harp! What comes out isn’t the best music in the whole work!. In fact, | & lot of it is downright bad. But nobody even thinks to question or to criticize. Because the spirit of harmony is there—harmony between folks who like each other’s company, who en joy the simple, homey atmosphere —with nothin? more exciting than old songs, and a glass of moderate beer or cider. From where I sit, it’s a heap more important to be a poor fiddle player, than not to play at all. More important to be a part of the American scene—with its commu nity music, home entertainment, friendly glass of beer —than to hold out for professional perfec tion. (Besides, I like to play the fiddle—even badly 1) Copyright, 1946, United States Brewers Foundation Hee/ect these ROBERT SMITH Clark of Oisl. Court ■"X ERNEST A.
