the danger of fires from that
source must be guarded against
most carefully.
Most portable heaters of
standard construction are thor
oughly safe if they are in good
condition, are operated in accord
ance with instructions Of the
manufacturer, and are properly
installed in the home," Mr.. Lam
dis said.
Several helpful suggestions on
the safe operation of such heat
ers have been transmitted to the
OCD by the National Board of
Fire Underwriters, the U. S.
Chamber Of Commerce, the Ma
tional Fire Protection Associa-
ton, and other organizations
sponsoring Fire Prevention Week
l. Be sure that the heater is
mechanically sound. Defective
electrical equipment should be
repaired by a licensed electrician
Worn or frayed cords or plugs
should be replaced. Gas and ker-
osene heaters should be thorough
ly tested for leaks and mechani-
cal faults.
2. Locate heaters so that they
are away from domestic traffic
and safe from contact by chill
dren. Fires are caused by port
able heaters being tipped over
and upset, or molested by chill
dren.
3. Be careful that heaters are
always kept safe distance from
combustibles. Woodwork, furni-
ture and other household COM
bustibles can be set afire by pro-
longed exposure to kerosene and
gas heaters, and to some extent
electric heaters.
4. Gas heaters should be solid

ed iron piping. Flexible tubing

5. Protect gas heaters from
exposure to drafts. They can be
blown out by a strong draft and
become Immediately dangerous.
6. Keep heater wicks, burners
and other parts clean and in goot
repair.
Z. Keep portable heaters turn
ed off except when a responsible
adult is present.
s. Kerosense is a definite fire
hazard. 1t should be stored in
safety cans in a cool place out of
doors. Prevent overflow.
9. Regard all emergency heat
ing devices as temporary exped-
tents requiring extra care and
caution. The time spent in sec
ond look may save you the trou-
BILE of rebuilding your home.

City To
License Bicycles

Continued from page one)
An ordinance passed correcting
an error in legislation presented
at the last meeting whereby the
cashier in the waterworks office
is to receive $3.50 per month for
the first year of service, $165
during the second, and $3.50 the
third. Receiving favorable ac-
tion was legislation providing
for construction of a sidewalk at
70 North Third street.
According to state statute not
over 40 cents per day can be
spent in feeding prisoners at the
city jail. An old city ordinance
provided this 40 cents be prorat-
ed at approximately 13 cents per
"meal." Due to rising food costs
local restaurants providing the
"meals" said they could no long
er afford to do so. Legislation
passed provided that 16 cents
could be spent for each of two
meals" per day, leaving eight
cents for breakfast. Passing of
the legislation met with both
cynical and comedy utterances.
However there is no way to
change the amount since it is
set by state statute.
Fire Chief Stanley Shaw sug-
gested that 500 gallon pumps be
installed upon the two fire
trucks now under construction
for the city. He advised that
they would then be able to aid
on low pressure streams in case
of disastrous fires. The city So
licitor was authorized to bring in
the proper legislation providing
a small additional appropriation
for this purpose.

WHICH WAY ARE WE HEADED
TODAY?
Which Way Are the People Headed
Today During These Perilous
Times?

When we think of the condition of
the world today, we are forced to ask,
which way are we headed? We
Americans have not as yet realized
that we are in world war. We
seem not to know that it is going to
take a solid front on our part to win
this war.
There are plans on foot now to give
India freedom. The nation that sur
pressed India sees and feels the need
of liberating poor India in order that
India might be willing to fight with
her millions to save the world from
the domination of Hitler and the Axis
powers. We hope h e nation that
has suppressed India so long has not
waited too late,
AS editor of the Weekly Echo, we
feel that there are black Americans,
Negro Americans may we say, who
need to be liberated. When one thinks
OF the many privileges and rights
that we are denied as a race, we all
must confess that we are not free. If
| were free man | would be permit
ted to help run the community, as
we'll as help support it. I would not
be denied the right of the ballot be-
cause my face is black. Those in
authority would not permit me to pay
taxes of any kind as any other indi-
vidual pays a n d then deny me the
right to the ballot box.
In all of the discrimination that we
have confronted, we have still been
loyal. We are yet loyal and we will
remain loyal. We can be counted on
and we want to be allowed some of
the things denied us, which rightfully

Colored Selectees from Birmingham
Ala, En- Route to Camp Shelby,
Hattiesburg, Miss, Register
Complaints

On last week, quite a few colored
through Meridian in buses en- route to
Camp Shelby, Hattiesburg, Mississippi
where they are to be indicted into
government service to fight and de-
fend Democracy. Hundreds of these
young colored m n were from Ala
bama. After arriving in Meridian
and stopping to have dinner, several
!. OF the selectees registered complaints
, to Reverend R. L. Young, pastor of
Newell Chapel C. M. E. Church and
editor of the Weekly Echo.
The selectees stated that they were
being coerced to get their meals at
some specified place. According to
their reports, they were told by the
bus drivers, who were white, that they
were to eat at one particular place in
Meridian. They reported that the
meals furnished them were unwhole-
some.
S m twelve or fifteen of these
young colored men gave their names
in support of their complaints. After
taking the matter up with some of
the colored citizens, t h pastor of
Newell Chapel Church wrote letter
to the Selective Service System, Ala
State Headquarters; to the Alabama
Chamber of Commerce; to the editor
of the Birmingham Age Herald and
to the editor of the Birmingham Re-
view, reporting the complaints as re-
!, ported by these young men. From
some of these letters written nice re-
plies have been made to Rev. Young
In his letter Rev. Young pointed out
the fact that this is no time for dis
elimination and maltreatment of men
because of race, creed or color.
