Americas Domestic Problems
By EMMETT J. SCOTT

non-discriminatory government help
when needed and applied for; the right
of free expression and petition in
every section of our country; and,
finally, JOBS, JOBS, REGULAR
things underlie our whole
social economy.
They are the bedrock upon which
vaunted democracy must rest. With
out them, disunity and confusion can
not be banished. Instead, our people
will continue to have dormant feelings
of economic and political insecurity
and an overhanging sense of basic in
justice.
Stamina and courage, intense loyalty
and trust, are to be expected only
when our government and our country
unmistakably indicate their eager will
ingness to make easier for all our
people an approach to that happiness
our Federal Constitution suggests,
and that ideal of liberty and freedom
which our Magma Charta is supposed
to guarantee to all its citizens.
The promise of Supremacy of
human rights everywhere" must be
something more than a slogan; it must
be living, breathing thing, vitalizing
our democracy everywhere throughout
our country.

So many problems of vital concern
and interest to low-income and under
privileged ps,-who, by the way,
constitute the greater number in the
country-are involved that it comes
as bitter disappointment that these
problems are still allowed to drift
along in the current of unsolved diff
culties.
For many years now, the problems
of the ill-fed,, the ill-housed, and the
ill-clad have seemed to defy solution.
Certainly, they should not further be
allowed to drift with all the so-called
craftsmanship gathered on Capitol
Hill.
Equality of opportunity to work and
earn ones living by the sweat of ones
rity for existence for ALL the people
the land, black and white alike; secu-
rite for existence for ALL the people
of our land, black and white alike; an
agricultural development which will
encompass the needs of the share
cropper, the tenant farmer, and all
who earn their living by cultivating
the soil; an untrammeled citizenship
not to be hedged about with political
trickery and chicanery; proper hous-
ing, not ghettos, for all, without dis
criminatory restrictions of residence;

GEN. DAVIS HEADS REGULARS

WASHINGTON-War Department
orders this week assigned Brigadier
General Benjamin o. Davis to COM
mand the 4th Cavalry Brigade with
headquarters at Fort Riley, Kansas.
The brigade is composed of the
famous Ninth and Tenth Cavalry,
regular army units with long and
brilliant records. Gen. Davis's assign
ment returns him to troops and officers
by whom he is we'll known because for
years he had served as private to Off
Ger with the Tenth Cavalry both at
home and in the Philippine Islands.
Davis is not West Pointer. He
began army life as a private and rose
from the ranks by study and hard
work. He is regarded as an able off
Ger.
For the past two years he was colo
mel and instructor of the 369 Infantry,
New York National Guard, which
under the defense program was con-
verted to the 369th Coast Artillery. an
anti-aircraft regiment. Last October
President Roosevelt appointed Col.
Davis as brigadier general, the first
colored general ever in the United
States army. His transfer from COM
mand of the 369th was announced Mon
day by the War Department.
The 369th is leaving New York next
week for a years training at Fort
Ontario, N. Y. it numbers now 76 off

In launching the campaign Mr..
Wyche pointed out that this year,
more than in most other years, gener-
ally unsettled and unfavorable condi-
tions have made the need for a success
full campaign many times as necessary
as in the past. He pointed with pride
to the capable work done last year
among businessmen, individuals and
organizations, and added that this year
he feels confident that every mark of
previous campaigns will be at least
doubled.

With luncheon meeting at Estelle's
Restaurant Tuesday, the Community
Fund forces for District 25 launched
what they believe will be the most
intensive campaign yet seen in the
long history of the annual effort in
the South End and Roxbury sections.
The drive forces are headed this
year by John E. Wyche and j. Caswell
Smith, whose direction of the enter
prise last year was so outstandingly
successful that they were unanimously
chosen to head it again this year.

The many Boston friends of Miss
Helen Tarby of Everett were surprised
to hear of her marriage on New Years
day. Miss Helen Louise Tarby, young
est daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. H.
Tarby of 45 Staples Ave-, Everett, was
married at 4 o'clock Jan. l, 1941 to
DR.. Herbert L. Moseley. The ceremony
took place in the beautifully decorated

Morris R. Taylor, who has lent ex-
ecutive direction to the annual drive
for the last three years, agreed with
Wyche in this belief and also added
that the women's divisions, which did
particularly outstanding work last
year, is larger this year than in the
past. This, he said, was an almost
certain indication of victory.
1t is significant that thas years
drive does not have a quota. In the
drive last year the quota, although
large, was exceeded by considerable
sum, and the procedure in the present
drive has been to put District 25 "on
its honor" and depend on it to beat all
past marks.

MOUND WORK OF GROVE AND ROOT GIVES FANS KICK
Red SOx WalIop Yanks; Cubs Trip World Champs;
 Reiser Comes Back
BY GEORGE KIRRSEY Limited Press Stan COrrespOndentp

NUnhVeu EFSSS Stau NVEFeSpOuueutv
 New York, May 26.-(UP)-The old guard isn't dead. Far from it. Look what two of the oldest of the old did Sunday:
 Lefty Grove, forty and crealSing in many joints but not in the old left soupbone, made the Yankees jump through hoops, pitching the Red Sox to a l0- 3victory, The Tanks made seven hits and three runs, all un- earned, and his hung up his 296th major league victory.
 Charlie Root, forty-one and fresh from a spell with the doctor con- cerning an injured left ankle, out- dueled Paul Derringer as the Cubs licked the world champion Reds, S-2. It was major league victory No. le5 for Root, oldest active player in the big show.
 There were other thrilling per- formances but none that compared with the heroics of these two old- timers who defled the hewhiskered gent with the Scpthe to prove that age can challenge youth in the America's national paStime.
 Young Bob Teller hurled his sec- ond straight shutout, pitching the American League leading Indians to victory over the Browns, 6-0. but one wonders If the Cleveland f1reballer will be firing away 20 years hence as Grove and Root are now,
 Hard Task
 Teller famed lS in his ninth tri- umph, Grove and Root, old and creaky, can pitch only once a week and nine innings Is an ordeal for them. All Teller had to do is go out there and fog his blazing fast ball through the middle.
 Cleveland's triunhp kept the In- dians { Ia games ahead In the American League. Tn the National League the Cardinals improved their position by snatching a twin bill from the Pirates, 6-4 and 4-3.
 It was Q costly day, however, for the Cards who lost their fiashy sec- ond baseman. Creepy Crespi. for two weeks or longer. He fractured his index finger In the first game. Steve MeSner, who came in at third as Jimmy Brown moved to second, de- livered the blow that won the first game-a double with the bases load- ed, scoring three runs. Although he had to have relief Harry Gumbert, the formre Giant, won his third straight game for the Cards in the opener.
 Comeback
 Brooklyn knocked of the Phillies, 8-4, coming from behind In tho sixth with a 5-run rally. Pete Reiser, face ing Ike Pearson who heaned him earlier in the season, hit a homer off the right field wall with the bases loaded to win the game. Whit Wyatt Dodger ace who started, had to leave the mound because of a sore arm,
 The Giants blasted out l4 hits and beat the Braves, 6-2, Johnny Fucker led the attack with four hits.
 The White Sox, clinging hard to second place In the American League, trimphed over the Tigers, 3, Thornton Lee hung up his fifth victory. A seven-run Chicago rally In the seventh blasted Hal New. hauser from the mound.
 Scoring i've runs in the eighth the Athletics knocked of the Sena- tors, 7-3. Wally Moses had a perfect day at bat, -four for four"
 YESTERDAYS HEROES - Nose Grove, Red SoX southpaw, and Charlie Root, Cub right handler, representing si years between them, who pitched their clubs to triumphs.
