QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
M. D. E.: "Will you please tell
me some suggestions to combat
sleeplessness?"
Answer have a book in which
a number of eminent as we'll as
ordinary human beings have given
their own methods of inducing
sleep. The methods vary widely
from the old sheep counting system
to composing a poem. The sheep
counting and poetry reciting de-
pend upon inducing sleep by sort
of hypnosis by repetition of the
same visual or intellectual image
The common bar to sleeplessness is
the dread of it. The body is natu-
rally adapted to sleep and in my
experience, if one will lie back and
relax the muscles all over it will
come without any artificial aid.
A. P: "Does a cancerous lump in
the breast grow larger all the time
or does it stay the same size?"
Answer = Grows larger all the
time.

of Alabama, and hundreds of lesser
lights; and remember the late Huey
Long entertained visions of being q
man on the order of Mussolini.
This little run around was put in
only to say this-Democracy is be-
ing threatened by the big three,
Nazism, Fascism and Communism,
simply because it is a thing of the
DRY, more than one of practice.
You've heard how some people put
their religion on the shelf until
time of catastrophe - well, that's
the way it is with Democracy in
most of the nations claiming to
practice it.
Democracy is more to be desired
than any hundreds of other doc
trines, but the trouble is, Ameri-
cans, Frenchmen, Englishmen and
many other civilized nations think
of it only in the time of dire need.
AS kid during the close of the
first world conflict, remember
hearing much about the preserva-
ton of Democracy. But since then
I've seen everything practiced in
this great land but Democracy. You
can hardly blame Hitler, Mussolini
or Stain for wishing to spread the
theories of their doctrines, when
you take a look at conditions in
the United States, both below and
above the Mason and Dixon line.
When you consider how certain ma
tons are treated in Poland, in
English possessions, you can hard
ly wonder why these dictators
strive to spread what they preach
and practice.
However, champions of Democ-
racy are at battle now. They will
win, we hope-but there will be a
great struggle. And let US hope
that should they succeed in over
coming the threat of Fascism, that
it will be warning-that some
day too much loyalty in their roles
as champions of Democracy, will
result in the eventual destruction
of the same. It should be a warn
ing to this nation, too-Democracy
is Gods gift to humanity-but it
must be kept alive by its fervent
practice-not preaching. Remem-
bering, too, that Fascism also calls
for the creed of racial superiority
race prejudice, -bigotry, hate,
cruelty and force.
If this nation is not Fascist
minded from Kentucky to Florida
and from Arkansas to Texas-then
Hitler is a. democrat, Not to men
ton many other states copying the
methods of Georgia and Texas
toward treatment of racial needs.
But as the second world conflict
gets under way, maybe something
will happen to cause native Fascist
sons to see that danger is really at
hand. ...

Poetic Thoughts
War
By MORRIS GIBBS, Sr.


Another war is here after twenty-five years.
In which the world again fears
Devastation fierce and destructive
Manning bodies with feeling to i've
What are the democraces fighting for?
For the old answer is filled with gore,
Since Principle can only stand
When greed gets helping hand
Greed can grow to monstrous size,
II we allow ourselves to not realize
That "peace at any price" puts off the day,
When reckoning comes in unhappy way
Individuals and nations thus seen,
To be caught mapping and not being keen
To nip in the bud the lethargic sign
For procrastination weaves false design
We pay for putting off today,
When disregard experience which showed the way
To overcome evil there can be no delay,
Or else the toll will be double to pay.
Circumstances may alter cases. but we abhor
The thought of being thrust again
Into the inferno and lose a lot of men.
The Negro always has played his part
By giving his all at the very start,
Never asking what the compensation may be:
He's real soldier, though not entirely free.

Today we are about to witness
a bloody conflict, unequalled in the
annals of history. Belligerents to
date are France, the British En-
pire and the republic of Poland
versus Nazi Germany and her vas
sal provinces. The republic of Po-
land is at present the shock abb
sorber, the same role played by
Belgium in the war beginning in
1914.
Issues involved in the conflict
are the same, only with newer
terms. We may call it the mod
ern issues of past conflicts, as the
Napoleonic wars and the Franco
German battles of bygone days.
The present day dangers though
are really threats to world peace.
The three doctrines of political the
cries calling for loyalty to state,
with a dictator as supreme arbi-
traitor, are involved. These three
doctrines are Nazism, Fascism and
Communism. Nazism and Fascism
may be broadly defined as, Sub
mersion of the individual in the
state; one man dictatorship; rule
by emotional excitement or fear;
dedication of brute force; creed of
racial superiority; suppression of
opportition; Qualification of war
and aggression; destruction of cul-
ture and the persecution of Jews,
Catholics, Protestants and all lib
eral minorities. The basic impli-
cation of the whole program is the
Imprisonment of the individual
mind in the strait jacket of an
enforced theology which appeals to
the lowest and most savage in
stincts of man-race prejudice,
bigotry, hate, cruelty and force.
When these instincts are glorifed
from above by the hero, they catch
the unthinking mind; and the
achievements of civilization and
reason built so slowly and painful
ly through the centuries are de-
stroyed."
According to one noted authority
on the three theories of Nazism-|
Fascism and Communism, the
above is only a sketching definition.
You will notice that "the hero" is
mentioned; "the hero" being the
leader of or guiding genius in car
rying out the policies of the en-
forced theology in question. In
Germany the hero is Hitler; in
Italy it's Mussolini; in Russia, it's
Stain. There you have Nazism,
Fascism and Communism, respec-
lively.
Three democracies representing
nations of people who vote as they
please, serve God or the devil as
they please-say what they wish,
and, in short, live lives as intended
on this sphere, are engaged in a
battle against the ideals of this
"hero" stuff in forcing nationals
to do things against their will.
Even now leaders of these par
ties have agents in every free coun-
try of the world attempting to
spread the doctrines of Fascism in
general. In the United States it's
Fritz Kuhn for the Nazis as Fas-
cists-while Earl Browder carries
on for the Communists.
Now this country is very much
Fascist-minded in certain sections
already. Not from Fritz Kuhn
but from such men as Cole Blease,
Senator of Mississippi, Tom Hefin
