Smoke Philip Morris!

THERE ARE NUMEROUS
things nobody is stopping us from
doing. For example, millions of
Negroes smoke cigarettes. Tests
have shown that one brand is as
good as another-all are good. The
only big cigarette company that
has bid for Negro patronage so
far is Philip Morris, which is now
advertising in some Negro news
papers. The others have ignored
or rebuffed the Negro press. Only
one company even hires any ,ap-
preciable number Of Negroes. We
can give a dramatic demonstration
of our opinion and our buying pow
er by switching to Philip Morris
until the other big brands see the
light. Such a group demonstra-
ton would have a profound effect
on white business everywhere

Lines to Lady Eleanor

Let the lyrics Tilt to Lady Eleanor
Let the sonnets sing in signal praise.
Let each beaming card in classic splendor
Tell about the grandeurs of her ways.
Matriarch triumphant in Our Native Land,
Magnificent and so superbly ine
A beacon light for justice may she proudly stand,
nlustrious in deeds of queenly kind.
May she forever be guiding star,
Whose radiance begets calm repose,
Whose scintilating lumnance CLEANS off afar,
Whose shining iridescence glows and glows.
Grand First Lady, may you live forever,
Deep in the hearts of humbles such as I,
And bonds you build, may nothing sever,
That dreams you dream may never die.

among the negroes imam any grou
That such a program could gain
Roadway among the Negro group
is evidence of what Col. Robert In
gersoll once said: "From time i'm
memorial people have worshipped
their destroyers; they have buried
great thieves and robbers beneath
marble and gold. Their saviours
have fought without thanks, la
bored without applause, suffered
without pity, and some have died
execrated and abhorred."
The Great Teacher established
the rule of Judging the tree by its
fruit" By this yardstick let US ap-
praise the Jewish race in it's rela-
tionships to the Negro. AS Al
Smith would say: Lets take a
look at the record!" And since
Negroes are pooh-poohing the past
and insisting upon the present-day
active state of affairs, we shall deal
with the situation as it is now.
It is a matter of general knowl-
edge that julius Rosenwald pro-
vided hundreds of schools in parts
of the South without which Ne
groes would have been denied edu-
cation. He gave freely to Y. M.
c.. AS, Negro universities, like
Tuskegee and Howard; to hospi-
tails like Provident, to Negro well
fare organizations like the Urban
League, while Rosenwald scholar
ships have been enjoyed by such
outstanding Negro artists as Mar
ian Anderson and scores of others
who have achieved distinction.
Interracial Work
The Rosenwald Foundation was
the first major foundation to in
clude Negroes on it's board of di-
rectors, namely, the late George
R. Arthur and DR.. Charles S.
Johnson, head of the Social Science
department at Fisk university.
Along with John D. Rockefeller, he
pioneered in a low cost housing
project for Negroes costing three
million dollars.
Mr.. Rosenwald, however, was not
an isolated exception in inter-ra-
cial cooperation. Mike Jacobs has
cooperated to give Joe Louis the
largest Negro income of our time.
AL Jolson gave Henry Armstrong
the opportunity to retire with a
100000 annuity and an unparal-
lelled record of three champion
ships held at one time. Lew Leslie
made Florence Mills famous in his
"Blackbirds." Jack Benny gave
Eddie Anderson Rochester" the
chance to make a fabulous income
and famous name. Grossman, as
of Ethel Waters, has got
ten her salaries as high as $4,000
per week.
Samuel Leibowitz volunteered
his services to defend the Scots
boro boys, carried the case three
times to the U. S. Supreme Court,
winning each time till most of
them were finally released and
none of them was executed.
Mayor LaGuardia deserves a |
whole folder for his attitude
toward the Negro. His mother was
Jewish. Besides having several
hundred on the New York City
payroll at substantial salaries, he
has pioneered in doing what no
other public official in America has
dared for the Negro. LaGuardia
named Myles Paige as special ses-

Governor O'Conors Traffic Safe
ty Commission is now established
as a separate agency, backed by

Because accurate facts about ac
cidents are imperative before ade-
quate steps to eliminate them can
be taken, the Commission advocat-
ed and has secured a central statis-
tical bureau to which police and
other agencies concerned must re-
turn reports on all accidents. which
reports, when recorded, will give
for the first time in the history of
the state a complete fractional rec
ord of the times, places and the
causes of accidents.
Glaring headlights, one of the
leading causes of accidents, were
next given attention, and law was
passed to require all motorists and

when approaching and passing an
other car. Pedestrians in rural

Cakes That Take Wing!

MO smart food manager is ever
without a few little tricks that
she can use when she wants to
turn a Plain-Jane dinner into a
party meal. The Butterfly Cup
Cakes pictured above are just such
a dress-up trick. They are as decor
alive, gay and saucy as their name
but actually they are not one bit
more work to make than are any
ordinary variety of frosted cup
cakes. Here's the way they are
done.
The crisp top crust of each cup
cake is sliced off, cut in half and
inserted into the thick and creamy
frosting like butterfly wings. This
molasses favored frosting is easy
as can be to make. If you are one
of the fortunate people who own
an electric range, it can be made
in a saucepan placed directly over
the surface unit, and no double
boiler is necessary. You see, these
electric units provide among other
things, the same kind of low, de-
pendable, never-varying heat that
is ordinarily associated with a dou-
BILE boiler. Here is the recipe for
the fragrant molasses cup cakes:
Butterfly Cup Cakes
(Makes Is to 20)
2 cups sifted cake flour
teaspoons baking powder
Il teaspoon salt
- teaspoon ginger
IL teaspoons cinnamon
u cup butter
The Hagerstown globe. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1936-1943, 1941-04-18
l cup sugar Q
2 eggs (well-beaten)
3 tablespoons molasses
7 tablespoons cold coffee

I COlu COlcc
Add baking powder, salt, and
spices to sifted flour and sift to-
gether three times. Cream butter
until soft, then add sugar gradual
ly, and cream until light. Blend in
eggs, then molasses. Gradually add
sifted dry ingredients to creamed
mixture alternately with coffee,
stirring until smooth after each
addition. Pour into creased muffin
tins and bake in moderately hot
oven with the electric temperature
control set at 3750 F. for 20 min
utes, or until done. After cakes are
cool, slice off the top crust of each
and cut in half Spread very thick
layer of frosting on each cake then
insert the two pieces of the crust
at an angle like butterfly wings.
Maraschino cherries or canned
mandarin oranges may be placed
in the center of each, as garnish.
MoIasses Frosting
Place 2 egg whites, ~ cups
sugar, 4 tablespoons water, l table
spoon molasses, and IS teaspoon
cream of tartar in a saucepan on
the electric surface unit of your
range, with the switch turned to a
low heat. Beat constantly with a
rotary beaten until the mixture will
hold a peak-about 10 minutes. Re-
move from heat, add vanilla and
beat until thick enough to spread.
