What Is Segregation?

segregation is the special Amer
lean means Of branding Colored
Americans as the interiors Of in
feriors in public status.
"When the white South found it
self confronted with the federal sta
tus of equality for Colored people,
the former slaves-equality Of cit
zenship, of freedom, of franchise
rights, backed by the national gov
ernment-it selected the denial Of
presence and of service in places
opened for public patronage as the
one great way to brand Colored
people as having been a slave race
and make them forever the scorn Of
civil society.
at is very effective measure.
Colored people are traitors to them
selves to aid and abet the idea by
self-segregation."

Recipe for Happiness

Recipe for Happiness
Combine four parts of Contentment,
two parts of Joy and one of Pleasure.
But these ingredients must be grown
in ones own garden. Sometimes, not
often, they may be obtained of a good
friend. When so procured, a fair
return must be made, else Happiness
spolls and becomes trouble. Some
times Discomfort and Ambition have
been combined in a desire to obtain
Happiness and Fame or Wealth have
resulted but persons who have tasted
these say that they are inferior sub
stitutes.

NEW TREES MARKETABLE
AFTER 6O-YEAR GROWTH

Back in 1925, the Hudson's Bay
company removed the first north
west lumber within several miles
of here, on the Columbia river.
Logs were sawed by hand, and
clapboards, an inch thick and a
foot wide, were shipped to the
Sandwich islands. BY 1889 west
ern Oregon and western Washing
ton were producing 5 per cent of
the nations lumber.
Although cutting has continued
for lis years, Sc per cent of the
original stand of forest giants Is
still rooted on the mountainsides.
At the present rate of logging. 1t
would take 100 more years to re-
move the remaining 600 billion
board feet of timber in the area.
While husky loggers, with ak
and saw, are eating into these for
ests, however, new timber will be
growing up. A seeding fir that
took root when the Hudson's Bay
company began logging in the
northwest would now be more than
two feet in diameter.

MORE THAN HALF
OF TIMBER REMAINS

When lumber experts of the
west gather here soon for the Pa
cific Logging Congress to study
what lies ahead in the industry,
there will be plenty of argument
that the western Cascade slope
and not New York-is the sky
scraper center of America.
More impressive than Manhat-
tan's steel towers. millions of
straight, rough-barked Douglas
frs still blanket the northwest.
Despite the fact that 1900, 900
acres of marketable timber have
been cut bare, 100000 acres
still remain, according to report
to the government by the West
Coast Lumbermen's and Pacific
Loggers' associations. Each of
these acres is covered by trees
from 16 inches to 16 feet in di-
ameter and towering 800 feet into
the sky.

Grapes of Wrath
Inspires Letters

Movie fans already have written
Goth Century-Fox more than $1,000
letters about John Steinbeck' S
tempest-stirring novel, 'The Grapes
Of Wrath" The letters are still
coming In, according to Peyton
Watkins, head Of the fan mail de-
partment, at the rate Of 1900 each
week, the largest number that the
studio ever has received about q
film before it was released.
Most of the writer's praise Daryl
F. Zanuck for his courage in going
ahead with the filming in the face
Of so many protests" he said. quite
few admit that they were skepti-
cal. They thought that Zanuck, at
the request Of banking and land in
terests, had bought Steinbeck's story
with the idea of shelving it and
keeping 1t OF the screen forever"
The fans, Watkins said, like the
idea of Henry Fonda playing Tom
Joad, Steinbeck's central character.
All want the story brought to the
screen exactly as Steinbeck wrote 1t,
a condition that Steinbeck himself
made at the time he sold it to Goth
Century-Fox.
Under the direction of John Ford
"The Grapes of Wrath" went before
the cameras recently with Doris
Bowden playing the leading fem
inine role. John Carradine, Charlie
Grapewin, Jane Darwell, Russell
Simpson, John Qualen and Eddie
Quillan interpret character parts.
