B. Dubois in the N. Y. Amsterdam
News.
William S. Knudsen, OPM CO.
boss, says that hereafter defense
plants will be permitted to display
signs proclaiming themselves Gar
senals Of Democracy" It is not
signs but the presence of Negro
workers that will proclaim defense
plants "Arsenals of Democracy"
How can there be anything demo-
cratic about factory from which
Negro workers are barred &c. S.
Schuyler in the Courier.
That latest soldier killing in
Fayetteville, N. c., adds more
weight to our contention that the
War Department should either
take colored soldiers out of the
South or stop permitting them to
be treated as pariahs in the South.
Segregated, Disseminated against
and bullied by local white police
and M. P. attachments the temper
of colored soldiers is near the
breaking point. You cannot train
men as warriors and expect them
to always knuckle under like
slaves. AS it is Negro soldiers have
shown remarkable restraint under
trying conditions.-G. S. Schuyler
in the Courier.

We wonder whether the heavy
inroad the Noxzema Products were
making in the Negro cosmetic field
has anything to do with the ma
tionwide boycott being launched
against the firm.
Plough Chemical Co. of Mem
phis has made a small fortune out
of Negroes with their Black and
White Products but we have never
heard whether they employ Ne
groes in the manufacture of their
products or not. We do know that
practically all of their sales staff
is white.

WE, THE WOMEN.
Common Courtesy Aids Defense On An Important Front Home

good manners, gallantry and neigh borlinesS of the once self -centered, Stand-offish Britishers-brought to- gether in understanding and sym pathy by a common threat and a common determination to conquer that threat.
 There's no reason why the same spirit shouldn't spring up in Amer lea, where we. too, are being drawn into closer understanding by the common purpose of self defense.
 Tn fact there's no reason why we, as individuals, shouldn't start today to think a little about the other fellow, and so make life . little more pleasant and Q little more bearable for each other. MANNERS CAN

 And fresh apricots (6O for three) instead of stewed apricots (20O for three)? And plain asparagus on toast (75) instead of creamed as- paragus (25O)?
 Those are the little calory mis- takes that keep you thinl Go on a high-calory diet for a while. By adding a little more than 1000 cal- ories a day you can gain two pounds a week. And remember you won't have to stuff" especially if you include foods with the appetite yitamln-Bl.
