All through the pages of his

races, of communities, of tribes
and of families, that there

thought the rattles on the tail

Biblical refernce who betrayed
her people into the hands Of
Joshua. Jericho was captured.
It's people were massacred and
the city RACED. Coming down TO
Benedict Arnold, I could write
volumS Of such perfdy and
treachery and betrayals by
which hapless innocent peo-
pies have suffered untold mis-
cry and privation as we see in
Europe today.
Hitler has fittingly described
the type. He said. I'VE will
find men to do our work every
where. We won't have to buy
them. They will come looking
for us, driven by ambition, by
partisan diScord, by blindness,
by pride and hatred" (Mein
Kampf). We can make some
lowance for the younger ger
erationS, who have not taken
the time, nor had the ambition
or inclination to study the po-
litical set up of this country
and colored aliens who come
here from other countries, but
every American born colored
citizen over so years of age,
with eyes, ears and other SEN
sations, knows full well that
the Democratic Party would
treat the colored people of tn
nation worse than the Ger
mans treat the Jews, if the
Republican Party would per-
NIT it.
The solid South" is the
brain, the eyes, the ears, the
mouth, the arms the hands,
the legs and feet of the Demo-
cratic Party. The torso is the
Democrats scattered over other
sections of the country. How
its influence is coalescing the
country is born out by the
fact that we find Congressman
Coffee of Nebraska, Fellows Of
Maine, Faddis, Moser and
Rich of Pennsylvania, Grant OF
Indiana, Tenerowicz of M'chi-
gan, and Reed of New YORK,
voting to defeat the Anti Poll
Tax Bill.
If we continue to vote and
support the Democratic Party
we are going to elect a Garner,
a Connolly, a Bilbo, a Talmage,
a Dixon, Rankin, a Whiting
ton, Summers, an Ellender. a
Bankhead, a Glass or some
other (noll me tangere) from
the Solid South, as president
of the United States.

1t would be quite impossible
to segregate the Jew, alien cit
liens, and Catholics, according
to the Ku Klux Klalle one hun
dred percent American Plan.
But if this persecution of COL
ored people is allowed to con-
tinue, the next victims of
Democratic persecution will be
the Jew alien citizen and the
Catholic Church.
We find nowhere in the his
tory Of the United States
where the Republican Party as
an organization has ever per-
secuted any race or any creed.
1t in truth has been the party
that has always protected the
down trodden and the OPP
pressed. From its very Begin
ming it opposed slavery and
fought for its abolition.
The Republican Party as an
organization has never set any
legal barriers against the Con-
Stitutional Rights, or civil llo-
critics of any race. On the con-
trary it is responsible for the
war amendments to the Con-
Stitution Of the United States,
and the Civil Rights Bills,
which have always been bit
terly opposed by the Demo-
cratic Party. Play safe next
Tuesday. Vote the Republican
Ticket as set up in this issue.
1t has been reported that
during the debate on the
Dwyer Anti-Lynch Bill (Repub-
Hcan) when cloture was in
voked, that Senator Walsh Of
Massachusetts, said on the
floor of the Senate, cloture is
the only method that Senators
have to defeat undesirable
legislation: To force a vote
of cloture at this time may be
injurious to the interest OF
those debating the issue. There
was no Anti-Lynch Committee
at that or any other time can
wasting to defeat Senator
Walsh. Give us fair play.

WHY KELSC MORGAN SHOULD
BE ELECTED COUNTY
ATTORNEY

Kelso Morgan should be nomin-
ated for County Attorney because:
He is the best qualified candidate
in the race He has had the widest
experience as a lawyer. He is a
man Of character and integrity. He
has the required judicial tempera-
ment. He is an excellent trial law
yer. He will prosecute all violators
of the law to the limits of the Law,
but he will protect with equal abil-
ity and courage all persons who are
wrongfully brought before the bar.
He will be faced with many nitric
ate legal problems during his term
Of office involving taxation ana
other problems of the administra-
ton of County Government. To
deal wi ththem, I'M. Morgan is the
best equipped man seeking this Of
flee. No one capable of intelligent,
fair, judgement will venture any
other statement.
In the public interest, Mr.. Morg-
an should be nominated on the 11th
of August. Intelligent, self-inter-
est requires it Of the whole people
in general and Of the Colored peo-
pie, in particular.

ASKING YOUR CONSIDERATION
AT THE BALLOT BOX ON HIS
RECORD OF SERVICE

Most Omahans today accept their
Metropolitan Utilities District which
supplies the city with gas and wat
er service, as rather commonplace
or ordinary because it renders it's
services so methodically, year after
year. Just like the front door, or
the kitchen sink, it is taken for
granted.
But to those outside of Omaha,
people interested in the utility bus
iness throughout America, this in
~stitution is looked upon as an out
standing example of a well-manag-
ed, n~on-politcal, publicly-owned util-
ity. For example, Omaha has for
several years enjoyed the lowest
manufactured gas rate in America.
Allan A. Turkey, one of the pres
ent Directors of the Metropolitan
Utilities District, is making his bid
for reelection as a Republican mem
Der of the board on the strength Of
the long record of good business
management which has character
ICED this institution during his as
sociation with it. Mr.. Turkey has
always favored the policy of pass
ing along to the public rate reduct-
ions during his term Of office. Mr..
Turkey has also stood for fair pro-
motion of those employees who
showed ability and who, like him
self, have made it a point to know
thoroughly the gas and water bust

ness so that the Omaha public
should enjoy efficient, dependable
service.
That long-range planning and
careful attention to good business
practice have been the rule during
Mr.. Tukey's public service on the
District Board is brought out in
ne recent retirement of all bonded
indebtness in the Water Depart
ment. In 1912, when the city ac-
quired the water plant and distrib-
ution system, a bonded debt of ST.
500, 900 was incurred. Last Decemb-
err 18th the remaining outstanding
water bonds, in the amount of So
Sos, 000, were retired leaving the wa
ter property debt-free.
To accomplish this, it was neces-
sary to pursue a conservative policy.
straining every effort to see that
INCREASINGLY large amounts were
put aside in the debt retirement
fund. When this was done, the
Board Immediately set in motion an
other long-range program for the
benefit of Omaha water users. A
5 1900. 900 five year Improvement pro
gram was started to rehabilitate
and expand the water system. This
work had been held off to a large
extent during the years while the
directors were performing the
double task Of paying off the bond
ed indebtness and reducing rates.
Republican voters interested in
maintaining efficient business man.
.agement in the Metropolitan Utilit-
les District are urged to vote for
Allan A. Turkey on August 18th. Al
though this is primaries day for
most candidates, it is election day
for this office. Each major party

when it dominates it's candidate.

estate and insurance business, which
he has conducted in Chadron, he
organized and became president Of
the Coffee Cattle Company in 1914,
which now has extensive range
holdings in Sioux County, Nebras-
ka. He volunteered and served in
World War 1 as a Second L%ieuten-
ant in the Air Service. Mr.. Coffee
served eight years as a member of
the important House Agricultural
Committee AN dis now serving his
fourth consecutive term on Congress
i In 1885 he was married to Kathar-
inc Newbranch Douglas, and he is
the author of the present Federal
| Seed Labelling Act and is largely re-
sponsible for the legislation author
izing removal of surplus agricultur-
al products through relief channels
and subsidized exports. The Food
| Stamp Plan was the result of this
legislation. He also sponsored the
1941 amendment which made avail
able to farmers IS percent OF parity
loans.
The following quotations are
some of his beliefs. To-day the
one great objective of the American
people, regardless of occupation or
party, is to win the war. We must
win it to preserve our liberties, our
property rights and national exis-
ence."
I'VE must crush the Axis Powers
before these ruthless and imperial
istic forces can assimilate into their
"a machine the resources and the
hundreds Of millions of people now
being brought under their depot

when the war is over, we must

esses of government and extricate
ourselves from the war-born grip of

which Negro players may enter the
field Of national league baseball, but
of course, the door will not stay
open automatically, states Randolph.
1t is up to the Negroes themselves
with the support Of their liberal
white friends to keep the door open
n open it wider. Now is the time
for the Negroes to make their fight
and bid for players in major prof
essional baseball. The reason for
this is that a large number Of the
white ace players are going into the
army and the same condition main
tanned in the baseball field main

mand s greater than the supply. II
Negroes are not able to break nto
the major leagues now while the
war is on, when the war is over,
there will be practically little hope
and opportunity because all of the
players that are now in the army
will be back looking for jobs. But
