Willkie Against
Discrimination

don't believe in any plan to get
the Negro vote; 1 think they are
all American citizens"
Following the Press Conference,
Mr.. Willkie held an informal inter-
view with a group of Negro Re-
publican leaders from the state of
Iowa, wherein he said:
"If l am elected l will carry
out the platform of the Republican
Party as it dealt with the Negro;
1 am behind the Republican Plat
form on this Plank 100 per cent" .
Further inquiry was made of
Mr.. Willkie as to whether or not,
as President of the United States,
he would see that the National
Government led the way in elimin-
ating discrimination and segrega-
ton against the Negro citizens of
the country. Mr.. Willkie replied:
81 am for that and against all
sorts of discrimination and segre-
cation, lock, stock and barrel; you
may quote me on this"
Mr.. Willkie disclosed during his
stay here that he plans to cam
paign extensively.
The Negro representatives who
attended the Conference with Mr..
Willkie stated they were deeply
impressed with his sincerity and
forthrightedness on all questions
affecting the Negro people of the
United States.

No Peace Without God

God cannot lie, and we who
claim his friendship and care
should not pray for his failure to
reward the wicked for their ungod-
ly sins. Yes, God is in these wars
and there will be no peace until
these dirty hypocrites who cruel
fly the lovers of Gods Kingdom on
earth are banished from his sight.
Lookout, many of you who stand
in high places both in church and
nation, God is warning on those
who profess and do not possess his
love in their hearts. Get yourself
together for the old saying that
" every tub must stand on it's
