the Armistice was signed and hail
ed by all nations as the end of the
war to end all wars" Yet history
has again repeated itself in that
within a period of a little more
than twenty years there is another
major war in progress which war
involves three of the major nations
of Europe.
It does not seem possible that
in such a civilized world there
should be cause for conflict that
is so costly both in property and
in life.
It is to be hoped that the United
States will remember the price that
it's citizens paid and are still pay
ing for the last World War, and
that they will profit by that ex-
perience and not be dragged into
another war even though there may
be some events which might be
interpreted by some as a cause for
our interfering in such a conflict.
I believe that any such happening
can be clarified by arbitration

OFFICE CORNER
All work and no play makes the
man in the office a dull boy, but
with new equipment here there is
too much work to do. His job is
a matter of details. The new clocks
being put in need his supervision
as does any insulating or torn up
tile. He was called up to the third
floor to look at the new kitchen
equipment. Nice black and white
kitchen tables, blue chromium
chairs, dining room set with vel.
low upholstered chairs, and a new
Westinghouse refrigerator. Also he
was called to look at the new desks
in the new building. Nice desks
with joining seats, desk tops thai
raise up with places for your books
and pencils. He assigned lockers
in the new building too. In his
office is a new walnut desk. Stream
lined and beautifully finished. May
you soon have peace, Mr.. offict

Leaders LambaSted
By Ben J. Davis
ATI.ANTA Ga.-SNS-

ATLANTA, Ga.-SNS-
Ben j. Davis. one of the Bet
ter Citizenship week speakers
Thursday night at Reed Street
Baptist Church, lambasted per-
sons he termed as Is shams and
frauds" who claim to be leaders OF
the race.
Those he termed as "Shams and
frauds" are doctors, teachers ana
preachers who fail to take an ac-
tive part in community organlza-
ton.
Mr.. Davis censored teachers for
doing nothing to correct the
existing public school situation
He declared that not more than
six of the 100 or more colored
Godtors in Atlanta are registered
voters. He stated that only 25 OF
the colored ministers in the Gate
City are voters.
Sresssng the point the man
in the pulpit is and has been the
one in position to lead the peo-
pie the speaker said, 'the people
have been lead to everything but
economic security and political
liberty"
He further scored "the present
new deal regime and the unequal
relief dispensation as it touches
Negroes"
Mr, Davis cited figures showing
t-ia, before the New Deal, there
were % Negro workers in federal
buildings and the post offices in
Atlanta doing janitorial work and
receiving monthly salaries of $l0O
but today there are u white per-
sons doing this work and receiving
salaries of $110 month"
The meeting was sponsored by
the Baptist Ministers Union. The
program was offered by the Soutr
side Civic League.
