There is one outstandingly APP

this world - we can easily keep
ourselves in state of constant
trouble and distress without half
trying, or without trying at all.
But strive as we may, we cannot
keep ourselves in a state of con-
tinuous peace and JOY. Most of
us get but fleeing glimpses Of
peace and joy-just enough to let
us know there is peace and joy.

the best poems of over a hundred
Negro writer's, some famed and
some little-known, with brief
sketch of each author. Besides the
poems, there is a section where
source books on Negro poetry are
listed.
The 1877 Pertinent Paragraphs
tell very briefly of things Negroes
have done in America from the
earlies Colonial times to the pres
ent. This booklet has sections deal
ing with explorers, inventors, edu-
Gators, scientists, musicians, writ
ers, artists, editors, economists and
athletes.
Among other things, it tells the
reader that the city of Chicago
wac founded in 1879 by a Negro,
Juan Baptiste de Sable; that in
1909 Matthew Henson, aide to
Commander Robert Peary, was the
first man to stand at the North
Pole; and that Alonzo Pietro, a
native African, was the pilot OF
one of the three ships used by
Columbus when he discovered the
New World in 1892. Among other
persons whose stories are told are
George Washington Carver, the
Tuskegee scientist; Booker T.
Washington; Paul Robson; w. c.
Handy, originator of the blues;
and such athletes as Jesse Owens,
Ben Johnson and Joe Louis.
THE Selected Reading List
contains the titles of thousands OF
works on the American Negro and
related subjects. 1t has an index
listing every book that can be
found in public and private librar-
les telling of the work of Negroes

that there now was no chance the

The Senate obviously is getting
tired of the filibuster and there
were indications that the South
erners might succeed in shelving
the bill, unless there was sufficient
pressure on the Senate from pro-
gressive forces throughout the ma
ton.

Senator Voices
Fear Of Negro

WASHTNGTON-(CNA) = vi
olently Illuminating against the
Anti-Lynching bill, Senator Allen
j. Ellender of Louisiana laid bare
before the Senate this week the
fear and hatred of the unrecon-
structed Bourbon South for the
Negro people with his shouted de-
claration:
"The quicker the Negro people
of this nation realize, or be made
to realize, that the white man is
his superior, I say, the better off
he will be-"
In the early stage of his six-day
filibuster against the measure, the
Louisiana Senator asserted that
passage of the bill would be an en-
tering wedge for the winning of
political equality. He bitterly as
sailed the Negro organizations in
the North as responsible for state
laws granting Negroes civil rights,
and for the campaign to enact
anti-lynching legislation.
Il am convinced that political
equality will lead to social equal
ity and social equality will lead
to the decay of our civilization,
he shouted.
I'D vote today to repeal the
Fifteenth Amendment (giving Ne
groes the right to vote)," he con-
tinued. II don't want to see any
Negro Senators sitting in this SEN
ate. I don't want to see any Ne
gro Governors"

Owing to Illness we were not
able to prepare an interview with
one of our outstanding women of

on rice, supplied by the Bureau Of

culture. A part of which we print.
Riee--Thc international Food
Rice Is one of the international
foods for which people have de-
veloped strong national tastes.
Pick up the cook book of almost
any country and you will find rice
dishes seasoned and sayored to suit
the antives Of that particular part
of the world.
One of the favored italian reci-
pes Is for risotto, rice favored with
onions, cheese and butter. Cooks
of India season rice with the
highly spiced curry powder And
in Oriental countries a sauce made
from soybeans often lends SAVIOR
to the daily rice.
Cooks of Java are famed for
their rice tafel, a central dish of
rice eaten with many different sea-
sonings. And the popularity of
the Spanish combination of rice
and tomatoes livened up with on
ion, peppers, and bacon has spread
far beyond the boundaries Of that
country.
In our own country styles of
rice cookery originated in the Car
olinas and Georgia. There it was
that rice first grew successfully
in the United States. And as the
industry grew, and the whole ma
ton was supplied with rice, cooks
the country over adopted and
adapted the dishes of these Caro-
linian homemakers.
This year, American rice cooks
have ample material to work with.

States this season is the largest on

paper had this to say of the Har-

fine scrap that saw three rounds

this week is Saul H. Hail, char

the church appreciates his services
