Labor, Backbone Of Nations Defense

ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES last Monday we
saw the observance of another Labor Day. and at time in
the history of the United States has the observance of Labor
Day been of such great significance With the nation
gagged in vast program of National Defense the very back
bone of which is the disposition and morale Labor the
cason brought forth address to the nation by the Pres
dent of the United States and other outstanding American
leaders.
On the position of organized labor in the United States
there many elements which have been much
in recent months to the American public Particularly the
large number of strikes and the continued number threats
to strike in those industries of vital Importance to the
of the National Defense effort
Since organized labor became large influence in American
political life there has been increasing amount of the
ponsby for American unity placed at its doors Existing
because Of strong foundation and belief in the democratic
ideal and in the right of to have share in the
work and wealth of the nation the Negro workers have

It is perhaps true since the issuance of the famous ex

Before a student can begin to
enter aviation actively as a voca-
ton, it is reported by an officer
in charge of instruction, 'he must
have a commercial license. Once
obtaining such a license, he may
then go up for primary instructor

rating. Prior to the present sum-
mer session CAA did not have suf-
ficent courses to carry a student
to the commercial license at the
Governments expense. We are
pleased to record, however, that
three of our students, by buying
some time of their own, have OBJ
tanned the commercial license. Two
of these students were successful in
obtaining primary instructor rat
ings to teach in the CAA private
pilots course. These young men arc
at present employed at Tuskeeee

N. Po-Many things happen in
the south which seem paradox
ical to folk in other sections
who seem not to realize that
mistreatment can be the excep-
ton rather than the rule in
most places. For example, last
Wednesday a number of boys
were swimming in Hobbs pond,
the best swimming hole in the
vicinity. There were both color
ed and white boys cooling off
in the pond, most of them be-
tween the ages of nine and Is.
Bessie Peace, Is, a colored
boy who lived in the nearby
community of Wilson, stepped
into a hole and went down. It
was late afternoon and most of
the boys had gone, but the spot
was dangerous and those boys
who remained watched rather
fearfully. Suddenly Bobbie
Springston, a nine-year-old
white boy whose parents are
prominent in Dinwiddie county
flashed through the water and
caught Bessie as he was going
down the third time. The COL
ored boy was too large for Bob
bic to handle easily but he
struggled with him until he got
close enough to the bank for
the others to grab him and give
first aid.
Gosh! had to do it, Bob
bic said when praised. Nobody
else would even try, it looked
