Erom where I sit... Joe Marsh
Friendship—Three
Thousand Miles Apart
Ever play chess? It's a great
game! One of the strongest friend
ships I know of started with a game
of chess—between Dad Hoskins, <n
oar town, and a man named Dalton
Barnes, in England.
They’re never seen each other,
never met. But for the past eight
years they’ve been playing chess
by mail together — Dad puzzling
over Dalton's latest letter, while he
sends a chart of his neat move to
England.
Dad always thinks best with a
mallow glaaa of beer beside his
chessboard. And the Englishman
writes him that he does the same.
“You kn«w, it’s almost as if we
shared a glass of beer together,
too!” says Dad contentedly.
Prom where I sit, you can talk
about diplomacy and foreign pol
ioy, but it’s often those little things
—like a game of chess or a glass
of beer—that can make for toler
ance and understanding ... be
tween people of all nations ... be
tween neighbors here at home!

The Quack club held a business
meeting on Friday, November 15,
at which time, they discussed the
plans for their Christmas Party.
At their regular Wednesday
night meeting on November 13.
the Timekeepers were somewhat
abreast of the time in observing
World Fellowship Week. The pro
gram chairman, Mrs. Geraldine
Melford presented Mrs. Aaron Me
Millan, who has spent seventeen
years in Portuguese So. Africa.
Mrs McMillan brought to the club
an interesting discussion on the
lives, work and religion of the
native Africans. The Timekeepers
club, which consists of young mar
ried women, were both surprised
and amused that African young
wives were just as interested in
setting a table with flowers and
centerpieces as they were.
In questioning the speaker, the
members received many surpris
ing facts such as the beauty of
the Africans. They boast of beau
tiful girls as much as we and
many of them dress in modern
dress instead of the customary
draped cloth with feet bare. A
mong the many things which Mrs.
McMillan discussed is the fact that
in many homes there are radios

Finds Urgently Needed
To Set Aside Three Milion Dollars
To Tight Dreaded Cancer Disease
NEW YORK. N. Y—Three mil
lion dollars will be set aside by
the American Cancer Society from
funds collected this year, for co
ordinated research to fight the
dreaded disease cancer, that
knows no race or color, it was
announced this week by a spokes
man for the Society.
Coordinated research was u*ed
by the government to develop the
atomic bomb and to solve other
These accomplishments indicate
that similar methods applied to
the problems of cancer might
yield comparable results. There
fore, £he American Cancer Socie
ty has retained the National Re
search Council, the same body of
scientists that helped the govern
ment with wartime research to
serve as advisor on the cancer
research.
The Counyi has appointed a
Committee on Growth to study
all forms of cellular development
in man, animal and plants, all of
which have a bearing on the can
cer problem. The committee, com
posed of 14 of the nation’s lead
ing authorities on cancer research
is charged with planning the So
: ciety’s research program.
The Committee on Growth, this
year, plans to make a number
of long-term grants to projects
of major importance. The grants
will be of such magnitude as to
permit individual investigators to
appoint associates -for long-term
training periods.
The fields of research in which
the present program is being car
ried and organized are concerned
with such subjects as cellular bio
logy, cytocbhe mistry, radiology',
physics, isotdpes, enzymes, horm
ones, genetics and viruses. Trans
lated into lay terms, they deal
with such questions as follows:
1. What causes and controls
growth of the normal living cell?
2. Why does cell growth get
out of control to form cancer ?
3. What are the fundimental
differences, chemically, physical
ly and biologically, between the
normal cell and the cancer cell?
4. What is the relation between
the many substances that can be
used experimentally to develoD
cancer in animals, and similar sub
stances that may develop within
or enter the human body?
5. What is the relation between
the sex hormones and cancer?
7. What influence does diet
have on cancer? One substance,
for instance, will cause cancer in
animals that have diet deficiences
and will not cause cancer in oth
ers whose diet is not deficient.
8. Is there a virus factor in
human cancer? Such a factor has
been found in cancer among fowls
and has also been developed in re
search on mice.
9. What clues may be found
through study of the formation ot
celts of the blood, which itself is
subject to cancer in the form of
leukemia ?
10 What are the hereditary
factors in cancer in plants, ani
mals, and men, and is there any
wav in which we can control
them ?
11. Can we slarve or otherwise
kill cancer cells in the human
boc’v without killing healthy cells?
12. Can we find a way to treat
cancer internally by making ra
dios.ctive certain substances cn
which cell growth denends ? This
is a field where atomic research
may be applied to cancer.
13. What can we do to extend
radium treatments?
14. How can the means of early
diagnoses be improved. H
ture. The people attend church in i
large numbers and are very reli
gious. On being questioned as to
her feelings about living in South j
Africa, Mrs. McMillan revealed
that she was vejy happy there.
Mrs. Hazel Miller expressed her
and the club’s appreciation to Mrs
McMillan for the very timely dis
cussion. The program chairman,
Mrs. Geraldine Melford. promises
another pleasant surprise at their
next meeting.
On Thursday, November 14, the
workers in the recent Community
Chest Drive were treated with a
waffle breakfast at the YWCA. At
this meeting Mrs. M. L. Dixon
expressed her appreciation to the
individuals who worked so dili
gently to raise the quota for this
division.
»
World Fellowship Week at the
building was observed with a joint
service sponsored by the YMCA
and YWCA. The theme of the pro
gram was “One Lord for One
! World”. Father S. G. Sanchez of
St. Philip's Episcopal church, gave
a most inspiring and interesting
discussion.
The crowning of “Miss North
side Y” is the event scheduled for
December 2, 8:15 p. m. The coron
ation is being held at the Near
Northside YMCA and is expected
to be a gala occasion when on
of the following young women will

SPEECH
CULTURE
BY BEATRICE L. MORGAN
Lesson VII
PRONUNCIATION
In the United States accent
varies according to the locality
in which we live. We find far dif
ferent and distinct accents in the
east, west, north and south. A
person from the east may say
“caow” for “cow” and this parti
cular trait is sometimes very fas
cinating. But if he makes a crude
mistake in saying “yestiddy” in
stead of “yesterday”, that kind
of error in pronunciation would
be the kind that originated in ill
iteracy. One of the common faults
in speech is to drop the letter that
ends a word, such as “sumthin”
for “something”.
Some persons who sound the T
in often “often”, make the eiror
because he does not know the cor
rect pronunciation, or he is care
less in speaking, and by rapid
utterance of words, fails to notice
that he has made a vast error.
Another fault in pronunciation
is that we clip syllables and slur
words and drop consonants, and
many times we know better, or
do not take the trouble to pro
nounce carefully.
A person is considered a wise
one, who will not use a word un
less he knows the correct pronun
ciation, and in this case when a
word arises in one’s regular trend
of conversation, and he knows not
just how to pronounce the word
correctly, he should substitute an
other word, as soon as possible,
remembering the word, consult
his dictionary, and then use the
word as soon as possible in his
conversation so that it will soon
become very easy for him to pro
nounce freely and without self
consciousness.

I ALONG
| MY WAY'
By Lawrence P. Lewis
STONING THE LIBERATOR
I was purchasing some presents
at the American PX in Calcutta,
India, during my stay there wait
ing for transportation home. It
had been a pleasant afternoon,
and although it was in mid-Jan
uary. the temperature was about
75 degrees and the sky was as
clear as a mountain stream. One
of the Indians, working as a clerk
in the PX, began a conversation
with me.
“You going home, Sergeant?”
the Indian asked.
“Yes, I am supposed to be leav
ing any day now”, I renlied.
This Indian wore British made
clothes, and spoke English well.
Not exactly as we would speak it,
when he talked the words were
sometimes out of place or broken
but very understandable.
He was showing me some of
the silver bracelets and lockets
that the PX had on sale, but his
mind was on politics, not the mer
chandise in the show case.
The Indian clerk continued to
place different pieces of jewelry
on the glass counter, giving me
the once over several times, not
knowing how far to go in this
, conversation.
| “You find a girl in Calcutta?”
he asked hardly above a whisper,
and with a half-smile on his face.
“I am not looking for a girl”,
I answered, appraising the jew
elry all the same time.
I “You no like Indians?” he in
' quired.
i Yes I like Indians. I like al
most everybody now”. I replied.
' The Indian clerk leaned over
! closer and said, “This bracelet,
'beautiful isn’t it? Only 28 rupees.
I Indians have nothing against you
; people. You are like us. Indians
no like white man rule. As soon
as Americans go home, there will
be trouble, much trouble”.
I just remained silent. I was
not looking for an argument on
race relations in which to spoil my
day.
* “You like America?” he contin
ued.
“Certainly”, I answered. “That
is my home. I love America. My
wife and baby are there’’.
I paid the clerk for a bracelet,
some earrings and a pin. He thank
ed me for the purchase, but tried
to prolong my staying by show
ing me other articles of interest
and value.
As I turned away the Indian
clerk leaned even further over the
counter and whispered, “When
you1. {Americans go home there
will be much trouble.”
Already there had been meetings
and gatherings in Calcutta of the
Indians. Some of the demonstra
tions were on. the verge of riots.
Students they called themselves.
Their riotings did not interest me
although they reminded me of the
lynchings in the South. A group
i of people taking advantage of
others who could not protect them
I selves.
A few days later a real riot
I did break out in Calcutta. We
I were not many miles out of Cul
1 cutta, but it was no concern of
ours. Americans did not meddle
in political affairs of India, unless
it was to protect the lives of
i American soldiers. A bulletin came
I out making Calcutta out of bounds
I for American troops.
I Our ship, the beautiful, sleek,
1 Marine Angel, had docked and I
was booked for passage on it. We
were all hoping that the riot would
not hold us up. Thousands of us
had sweated out weeks waiting
for a ship to come in, and now
we might not even be able to get
to it. Unless you have been thru
it you cannot realize the torment
one goes through waiting, hoping
and praying that tomorrow will
be the day.
The next morning in the early
hours we were oitfered to stand
; by for transportation to the Ma
j rine Angel. The half-moon was
! still high in the sky and the stars
I mingled with the electric lights of
, the camp, helping to light our
| way. Somehow it reminded me of
| a thief in the night, hiding under
[the cover of darkness.
As we reached the center of Cal
I cutta, the trucks were speeded up.
! ft was just breaking dawn, and
I the American MP’s with their
white helmets, white jeeps, and
automatic guns, wre racing up and
down the long convoy of trucks.
British soldiers were guarding the
streets. All along the routs I saw
burned American trucks, many
overturned, with the American
flag painted or placed on them.
Indian boys, some young, some
old, stood with angry faces, ready
to give somebody an unwelcome
shower. A rock shower. Many re
ceived that shower. I could not
believe all this was happening. I
thought about the Indian clerk at
the PX. About his words, “when
the Americans leave there will be
trouble”. Trouble was already
here. They had just stoned men
who a few months before would
have died, as gladly as any man
can die, to protect India, her peo
ple and their homes.
Immeriately following the prog
ram a number of calls were re
menting upon the success of the
program. The next program will
be Sunday, December 22nd.

Life At
A Glance
Well the Republicans walked
into a sweeping victory in every
part of the country except the so
lid south. .What with all the pub
licity that has been given them,
the south should awaken; they
may not be so hot after all. May
be they should have crawled up
on the elephant, and made the vie
tory complete. .Already there is
much talk about cutting down
taxes, but hardly a day passes
but there is not something in the
papers about the increase of some
commodity. But what strikes me is
I haven’t seen or heard a word
about any increase in wages.
Well, it should be well known by J
this time that John Q Public was
aware of the reasons the Demo- |
crats tossed the meat situation on
the lap of the Republicans, and
they in turn, flooded the market
with steaks and pork chops..But
what I don’t think anybody has
thought about, is what they may
be paying for a rib or neck-bone
this time next year.
Look out for the lifting of ceil
ings on lumber.. and what follows
next? The lifting of the controls
of rents.. In the not too distant
future, you may wake up on the
next morning and find the land
lord slapping a ten to fifteen per
cent raise on your rent..Yes sir,
that will be the day, and I mean
the sad day..
What Mister Politician does not
know now. and hasn’t understood
in the past about his dear voters
is that they will change up on you
over night.. You knight, they may
vote for you this time, and if they
feel they have been let down fal
tho I don't say they are) they
will cast the most asparaging vote
against you. .Beware Republicans
don’t let the steaks and chops
stop flowing. .The voters might
do it to you in 1948.
The late FDR seems to have
been about the only politician who
knew his voters. He called them
“My friends’’ and they liked it.
But what’s more he liked them and
worked for them; defied most of
out the country to work for them
and long live FDR. .Long live
FDR!
There are no FDR’s in the pre
sent day set-up of the Republi
cans, or Democrats for that mat

Respect
Democracy
By Ruth Taylor
Father Wilfrid Parsons brought
out an interesting thought not
long ago which expresses a great
deal of what is wrong in our atti
tude toward government. He said
that we are out to treat leg
islation as a sports event, that a
bill may be carefully and thought
fully worked out and brought be
fore Congress but when the vote
is taken the headlines read, "Such
and such a side won."
This is a strong indictment. Is
legislation to be a battle of wits..
or a genuine effort to bring to
pass a law for the government of
all the people? Must there be a
winner and a loser in government?
Or is this a government of the
people, by the people and for the
people ?
We must be more dignified in
our concept of public life. We
must make it not a sports event
where the cleverest is the best,
but a career in which a man does
the best he can. We need to treat
with as much respect the oath of
office as we do the physician’s
oath.
Only as we take seriously our
duties as citizens, prayerfully,
earnestly seeking out the best
men for the job, regardless of
the party or the creed to which
they belong, then dignifying them
with respect and expecting them
due recognition of the responsibi
lity they owe. .not to the voters
who elected them, but to all the
people of the United States.. only
as we act this way can we pro
perly dignify the democratic pro
cess.
Let us show what we really
mean by a government of the
people, by the people. Let us stop
thinking of it as a race or a glori
fied advertising competition and
treat our government as we would
have outsiders consider it. If WE
don’t respect the democratic pro
cess, we can’t expect our world
neighbors to do so.
The election is over. The major
ity has decided. Now let us all. .
majority and minority alike, .get
behind those whom we have elec
ted and prove that we truly re
spect democracy.
inion of the State Supreme Court
Chief Justice Griffin Smith, a for
mer newspaper man, declared,
“such comment does not create
a present danger to the admini
stration of justice.” The Court
further held that there is “no rule
of law permitting sentences and
court fines merely because a news
paper thinks some judge had mis
takenly stated the law.”
Mr. and Mrs. Bates were defend
ed by Ross Robly and Elmer Scog
gin. private counsel. The American
