Of classification E. . the number of col
Ored citizens to be drafted in this area
is at a minimum because the military
strength Of the 372nd Battalion has re-
duced the balance necessary to fill our
quota the national election cam
paign is fast drawing to close and
President Roosevelt's bold gesture in
elevating the rank Of General Benia-
min o. Davis is a benefit to the entire
race despite the charges Of political
expediency . our people have not
suffered undue oppression under the
present administration and we must
admit that Eleanor Roosevelt has been
our staunchest champion of equal
rights In these times consider all
these things in casting your ballot and
vote without fear or favor for either
candidate -. the national colored press
has reversed their favorable attitude
towards President Roosevelt on the sole
issue of race discrimination in the
armed services of the United States
this condition has existed for wears
under both Republican and Democratic
administrations and is a standing
policy of the War Department which
can only be changed by Congressional
enactment or presidential decree and
President Franklin D. Roosevelt has
gone further to break that precedent
In his recent appointment of three
race leaders to key executive positions

studied here) =. the Administration
has recognized the ability of our pro-

National Youth Administration =. let
us look at the other side of the ledger
-. Mr.. Wendell Willkie seems to be
sincere In his efforts to bring about
private employment instead of relief
but the slack has been already taken up
through national CONSUMPTION and the
National Defense Act as we can readily
see here in Massachusetts at Camp
Edwards, Fort Devens and the i'm
mense Westover air base at Chicopee
-. the nations war industries are now
getting under way for peak production
and the men Of the country are going
en- promises of the future with big
back to work at good salaries both in
navy yards and manufacturing plants
... a long awaited opportunity pre-
sents itself to put men to work and the
major parties are taking advantage of
it :. Mr.. Willkie is replete with gold

B. L. y. Work For
Year Is Explained

Frequently members of the Bust
are asked just what it is that the
club does. In all. seventeen girls have
used the loan fund of the club to
complete their education. Nurses,
StGnUgraphcrS, boOkkeeperS, SeCre-
tlrcS, clerical workers, teachers,
librarians. and beauty-Shop opera
tors have all been helped TO secure
that special training 50 necessary
before they enter the business world.
At present five girls are using the
fund. and proceeds from Mrs. Frank
lin D. RooSevclt'S lecture which the
club is sponsoring will supplement
that fund and take care of some on
the waiting list. a small rate of in
tereSt is charged, and when re-
cipient gets Il job she pays it back
in small mstallmentS, making it pos
Sible to help another girl
This is one of the most worthy pro-
iectS of the club and juSlifieS lis en-
iStence, although in many other ways
the club stands ready to cooperate
in any community activity.
For three years the club has been
studying democracieS, beginning with
the origin and gradually working up
TO this years program. which IS
Making Domocracies Work.. The
ch!cr aim is to study business women
in democracy. From month TO
month the subject builds up into a
unit: Facing the 1910 Issues. ''Vot-
ms Intelligently". Our Govern
ment. Helping to Shape Legisla-
ton, Considering the Price Of
Peace. Through it all the idea runs
lifting the business or professional
woman into d democracy.
Besides thc>2 activities a good
healthy social life is stimulated thro-
ugh parties. receptions, get-together
dinners. visits to neighbOring meet
ingS. and the like. Putting on a
minstrel, circus. bridge and setback
tournament, and a home talent play
have added to the fund, but this year
the club felt the need of doing some
thing really worth while and so they
are presenting the First Lady in lee
