they are wearing and what they are
doing, the memorandum suggests.
The part of the memorandum
dealing with intelligent hosiery selec-
tion and hosiery care follows:
For homework, gardening or
light sports wear, choose cotton Or ray
on hose in heavy and medium weights.
Cotton anklets are also practical for
this use in warm weather.
For hard wear, for sports, such
as hiking, golf, country walking, ETC.,
choose heavy ~(service weight) cotton.
For shopping, or office wear, for
wear with suits and tailored clothes,
choose medium weight cotton, rayon,
nylon, or silk.
For afternoon dress or informal
evening wear choose nylon or light
weight rayon Or cotton in novelty
knits- lace or mesh. The Bureau of
Home Economics has designed more
than 100 styles Of cotton hosiery am
ong which are many attractive novelty
patterns suitable for dress wear

FACTS OF INTEREST
TO WOMEN

Facts of interest to Negro wom-
en- pertaining to the relation Of hosiery
to national defense are contained in a
special memorandum issued to the Ne
gro press by Miss Frances H.. Williams,
Special Groups C~onsultant, Consumer
Division, Office Of Price Administered
ion. Data for the memorandum was
obtained from the research staffs Of
the various sections of the Consumer
Division.
The memorandum is concerned
with the seriousness of the shortage Of
sheer hosiery and the availability Of
adequate substitutes for silk. Special
emphasis is placed on intelligent hos
iery selection and hosiery care.
Negro women are urged to exer-
else skill and discrimination in their
purchase of hosiery. Especially stress
ed under this heading is the point that
careful hose buying takes time and
planning. Unless hose are the right
size, the proper length, well made and
intelligently selected, their wearing
time is apt to be short.
Addressing itself to the popular
question chow serious is the shortage
of sheer hosiery going to be-, the mem
.orandum states that this is a question
that only the future can answer.
However, it is pointed out, that
sheer hosiery can be made of nylon,
cotton, and rayon. Furthermore, by
mixing rayon or cotton in the mandfac
ture Of silk hose, a limited amount of
silk can be spread.
The big question is the available
ity Of all four fibres- silk, nylon, ray
on and editorial essential to nation
|al defense.
Thus, women should plansto wear
stockings as a part Of an ensemble on
the basis Of the outer clothing which

the informal parade through life,
when college girl and working girl
alike desires to cause the selected
mans heart to beat just a bit warm
er, simplicity In style OF dress can
do much to be helpful. r can give
no better advice than this: some
where among your associations IL q
woman whose mode Of dress II OUT
standing. Other women, and men,,
admire her because she knows what
to wear and when to wear a par
ticular ensemble.
Go to her and frankly discuss the
dress problem with her. She will
be flattered -. and she will re-
spond.
Even If you must do your own
beauty work, an occasional visit to
the trained hairdresser and cos
metologist is helpful for the advice
you gain. You probably do not have
access to professional advice in the
matter Of dress, but you can politely
insist that the salesperson who
helps you buy your clothing takes
the time and gives you the consider
alton to advise you correctly In the
colors you should buy.

GREENSBORO, n. c.

I'm distinctly flattered that q
number Of Negro college magazines
and papers recently have requested
use Of my column during the school
year. To welcome my collegiate
readers, this column will be devoted
to a question asked me by a college
editor while asking for permission
to use the column:
"What colors can be worn sue
cessfully with dark skin and hair?'
Select Colors Carefully
Red can be worm as it makes dark
skin softer and lighter.
Yellow gives a lighter and pinker
appearance to dark compilations.
Dark green.
Black makes all compilations
lighter.
Grey is ~flattering to brown-haired
women.
1t is interesting to know that
orange has a tendency to give a
greenish shade to dark skins.
Light green has a tendency to
darken; violet has this same ten
dency; and blue is not favorable to
dark compilations. Therefore, when
any Of the unfayorable shades are
worn, special care should be given
to the makeup. Consequently, it
is necessary to know which shade
Of powder and rouge can be worn
with the various colors Of the cos
tune.
Dress Denotes Character
The college girl, the business girl
or the housewife knows that her
style Of dress easily can denote
character. It's alright to be gaudy

AMBASSADORS WITHOUT
PORTFOLIO

IL O1L1O
All Of us are ambassadors with
out portfolio. Right now Pm think
ing Of the man who stands out prom
inently for his race in that connection.
He is-Joe Louis, worlds heavy
weight boxing champion.
Not even remotely identified
with that group of men and women
who by formal training are better
qualified to espouse the aus of Am
erica's forgotten class, Louis makes the
headlines in no uncertain terms.
A few weeks ago Hugh S.. John
son, former NRA car, released a letter
the heavyweight boss sent Mr.. Baruch,
in his widely read column in the N. Y.
World Telegram. The text of the let
ter was as follows:
Dear Mr.. Baruch:
"I have been reclassified by the
selective draft board, and [ expect To
be called into the service of my coun-
try. fH-gI
This may cause me to retire
from the ring. But before | retire I
want to put up/one more fight THE
best of my career-to help my people.
''The hardest fight I ever had
was against prejudice and intolerance.
My people know what | mean. They
r all fighting their way up, and l
want to open the door of opportunity
a little wider for them.
"The fight l propose to make will
not be staged in an arena against one
particular opponent, but out in open
across the country.
IF | could get a gate as big as
I've seen in Yankee stadium, and turn
it I'VE to the-Department Of Race
Relations of the Federal Council Of the
Churches of Christ in America. This
because of the splendid work this de-
partment is doing on behalf of the Ne
gro people, in the interest of better re-
lations with their white ~neighbors.
Doing this I'd feel like a real champion.
81 propose to start the gate with
my own contribution, and I want YOU
to subscribe for a box Of ringside seats
or other reservations. This is one
purse which does not have to be shar-
ed with promoters or managers. Ev-
cry cent will be used to better the con-
ditions of my people, and in creating
better human relations in America.
Evil you cooperate by sending
your check or money order, in any a.
mount, payable to Frank H. Mann,
treasurer, and mail it today? If you
help me win this time I'll feel that Eve
won the greatest fight of my life.
Sincerely yours,
JOE LOUIS
This writer feels that every men,
Der of our race on a parity with Louis
in the matter of prominent in their re-
%spective fields should carefully study
this letter. Louis has done much fer
boxing, richly deserving the financial
returns the game has offered him.
But in the wider fields of education,
the champ needs to help win such a
fight an the men in his corner for this
one, should be the leaders of thought.

A. Initiation is a decrease in the
buying power of the dollar caused by
a rising cost of living. This, i'm turn,
is brought about by a heavy public de
mand, resulting from a rapid increase
in the national income, for things
which cannot be produced in large

 The commission said there had been no final decision as to what service the ships would enter, but that 1t was possible ~that one or more will be operated in the service of the United States Army"
 "It is likely that none of the six will be used in transatlantic serv- ice," a commission spokesman said.
 The commission expressed hope that the Danish crews would re- main aboard their ships. Other quarters reported that the Danes were under strong pressur from the Nazi-dominated Copenhagen gov- ernment.
 This pressure, 1t was said in tn- formed quarters, sought to prevent the Danish crews from sailing for Britain, or aiding the United States defense effort.
 The Danish ships, along with 29 German and Italian vessels, have been under protective Coast Guard custody since April.
 Informed sources said the mari- time commission had no present plans for taking over the Il immo- bilized French ships, including the luxury liner Normandie, and that it would not make any moves until there was a more definite trend in the tnse diplomatic relations be- twen this governmnt and France.
 Number to Increase
 Meantime, the list of 84 foreign ships subject to the acquisition bill was expected to increase materially, party because of new regulations placed in effect Saturday by Presi- dent Roosevelt, governing assets of continual European nations.
 The ships of any continental European country. and any of their cargoes are subject to license con- trols, according to the presidents new order. Diplomatic quarters were interested in the fate of II Russian vessels now in Pacific ports.
 The Russian ships have been una ble to sail for lack of export licenses covering their cargoes. Now the empty ships, themselves, will be una ble to leave without specific per- mission from the treasury.
 The same situation applies to the vssels of number of other Euro pean nations.

(Continued from Page D examination of this whole question of freezing and confiscation and possible German counter-measures is now proceeding"
 Well-informed Nazi quarters had said earlier that Germany might not take any retaliatory action for the present.
 "It must be remembered that the United States has already at various times taken measures which well might have resulted in retaliation by Germany but that Germany has refused to retaliate," an informant said.
 This informant said that what ever course the government took 1t would make its decision only after thorough consideration of all fac- tors.
 It was understood that early in April the government had drafted a proclamation calling for the con- fiscation of American goods in Ger many in retaliation for the seizure of German ships but that the pro- clamation was withdrawn at the last moment.
 British Lost 60 Tanks
 Berlin, June 16.-(UP)-British imperial troops in North Africa struck in force at axis positions on the Sollum front yesterday and lost 60 tanks, the German high com- mand reported today. Heavy fight ing was said to be still in progress.
 The land operations on the Sol- lum front were reported to have been accompanied by fierce fight ing in the air, in which German and British bombers and British fighters were said to have particip- ated.
 German aircraft, active on far flung fronts, were credited by the high command with sinking Bri- tish light cruiser and damaging a heavy cruiser in the Eastern Med iterranean and destroying 2l,000 tons of shipping in strongly-pro- tected convoy west of Gibraltar.

property were seized by the United States.
 The freezing decree came as Ital- ian newspapers bitterly attacked the United States.
 Yesterdays Popolo Di Roma in first page editorial, accused Amer ican diplomats in Europe of being agents provocateurs, and 1t was believed that the article was meant to imply that if better Italo-Amer- ican relations were not attained soon Italy might insist on the de- parture of United States diplomats in Italy.
 United States intervention in the European war is without precedent in history" 1t said. United States intervention in favor of Great Brit ain is by now complete even though the internal battle between inter- ventionlsts and neutrals continues. Nevertheless the United States has not declared war on Germany and Italy and American consular envoys continue to remain in Axis cap-. italS."

The dispatch said that Hitler demanded reply by June IS.
