Stassen Reported
Backing Twin City
Leader Newspaper
(See editorial New Influence in Min.
nesota Negro Journalism"
page two)

hC6O(d NCSTO JOurudl1Sn,
page two)
According to report circulating
around Minneapolis, Governor Har-
old E. Stassen, through some of his
political hackers, is giving finan-
cial support to the establishment
of the Twin City Leader, Negro
weekly which suspended publica-
ton about three months ago.
The Leader has been under the
ownership of j. E. Perry, former
publisher of the Twin City Herald.
The Leader was established fol-
lowing the sale of the Herald about
20 months ago to C. E. Suel of
Robbinsdale, a white publisher.
Reports list Mrs. Fannie M.
Shanks of Minneapolis, Stassen
supporter, as editor or manager of
the paper. If reports are accurate,
this will be the first time in many
years that Negro newspaper has
received its backing from political
interests.
The entrance of Stassen in the
Negro newspaper field in some
form was predicted by one of his
supporters last January because
the governor and his supporters
were dissatisfied with the attitude
of the Minneapolis Spokesman and
St. Paul Recorder which have
claimed editorially that the Gov
errors protestations of friendship
for the Negro are not matched by
his actual record.
A Minneapolis Negro profession
al man who defended Stassen's po-
sition in the Home Defense dis
elimination fight was reported to
have said to certain members of
the group that eff Newman, pub
Usher of the Spokesman and Re
corder, doesn't lay off or change
his attitude, he will have to make
his living in another city"
Stassen has received unfavorable
nationwide publicity in his contro-
versy with the Minnesota Negro
Defense Committee.

years, on her newly acquired Con-
necticut farm.
The celebrated singers country
retreat is a dream come true.
81 needed a real home like this"
she said. During the winter
months when l travel so much I
somehow get the feeling that Pm
at home if l land in any one place
for as much as three days. Out
comes the hot plate and little cans
of soup which always go along
with me and Pm established"
On her extensive trips which last
from October to May, Miss Ander-
son for the most part lives in
trains. The gypsy life of the mod
ern concert artist, she says, is very
much like that of the ancient trou-
bador whose delight lay in giving
pleasure to a new audience at each
performance.
But Miss Anderson, staring out
of the train windows, often sees
the imagined reflection of that
dream house in which she could re-
lax and replenish her energies.
81 always said that when I did
buy a home, it would be on the
seashore. That house would have
high ceilings and a fireplace in
every room. But here I am" she
added, "down on the farm. To take
the place of the sea, I have just
completed the construction of a
natural swimming pool. And the
ceilings-they are about as low as
they could be. And to cap it all,
there is just one fireplace"
But there is a marvellous view of
a whole valley for miles and miles
that can be seen from any part
of the house." The view, Miss An
derson said, led to the compromise
when time came to own a place she
could really call home.
Miss Anderson's first concert
here will be the regular Friday
night subscription affair of the
Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra.
On this program, she will sing two
arias, "Il lamento d'Arianne" by
Monteverdi and 30 Don Fatale"
from "Don Carlo" by Verdi. The
orchestra will play Copland's "Out-
door Overture" "Pastorale for Or
chestra" by Anis Fuleihan and the
Mendelssohn Symphony No. 8
(Scotch) in A minor.
The second concert on Saturday
night will find Miss Anderson sing
ing a group of four songs with
piano as we'll as the aria "Pleurez
mes yeux" from Massenet's. de
. Cid" The songs are "Sind es
Schmerzen, sind es Freuden" and
"Sehnsucht" by Brahms, "Songs
My Mother Taught Me" by Dvorak
and elbow, Blow Thou Winter
Wind" by Quilter. The orchestra
will present the overture to "Der
Freischuetz" by Weber, the Mil
baud "Suite Provencale" and the
Beethoven Seventh Symphony.
Miss Anderson is expected to
present number of Negro spiritu-
ais as encores at each concert.

THANKSGIVING
By Charles Beasley

By Charles Beasley
This is Thanksgiving, a time to rejoice;
A time to be praying, and to shout with my voice.
It's time to give thanks, this great, bright day;
Thanks to the Lord, showing it in way
I thank the Lord, that l can eat,
And play, and sing and even sleep;
I thank the Lord for my fine home
And love for my mother, who is all my own.
I thank the Lord have brothers to love;
That don't have to be afraid of bombs from above;
That nation, "The Land Of the Free;
And that things for my folk not like they used to be-
I thank the great Lord that can talk;
That have chance and two feet with which to walk;
That is not all that could say,
I could go on forever and day:
Thanking the Lord like you folks would do;
If you give it the time-I know you will, too.
Let all be thinking about what we're going to say;
On such glorious Thanksgiving Day."

 Warren Cooks Watchmakers can be counted on to form stiff compet- ition for any team that cares to go any where in the American loop.
