Tire Dealers 'Holdout'
Hurts His Conscience
BY LINTON ARKLEs

Bad conscience of the month be-
longs 10 a local tire dealer, who
naturally wants TO remain anony-
nous. Hes an upright, honest
citizen and not ordinarily given to
shenaniganS. hut when the tire
ban was rumored, something made
him hold out so new tires from
his inventory.
He put them in cool. dry place.
and his stock was inventoried
without them. But because he's
fundamentally honest, he's been
afraid ever since to sell them or
give them away. and it's gone so
far now that he's afraid 10 confess
TO the authorities.
So he sits, figuratively, on a
stack of tires that every one but
himself wantS-the guy we least
envy in all the world.

From time to time reader tells
me about adventures Of one kind or
another which he has gone through.
Recently I received letter from
Mr.. 8. c. Pettegrew, who said he
would be 81 years Of age at his next
birthday. Here is his adventure:
II was raised on q farm and Ike
most boys around there was crazy
about hunting. I always thought
when was 81 I would see the West.
MY father had two acres OF hazel
brush and told me, when was 81,
that If I would break 1t up I could
have all I raised on it. That year I
broke 1t up. The hazel brush was
higher than my head in places. I
put the land into onions and sold
the crop to father for $50. That
was more money than I ever saw
before.
"The family later moved West,
and in the spring Of 1883 I started
out In the hills west Of Pixies Peak
with my hunting dog, looking for
deer. I ran across . lone deer
track in the snow and followed 1t. I
expected to catch the deer standing
In the brush.

Thank you. Mr.. Pettegrew, for
taking us back to days when bears
were common in the Rocky Noun
tains. They still are to be found in
those mountains, but there are not
nearly so many as in former days.
The brown bears of the Rockies
belong to the black-bear family.
Sometimes q black-bear family has
one black cub and one brown one.

term for infantile paralysis.-S. B.
Answer-First choice, IN-f'n-tile,
the third syllable rhyming with file.
Second choice, IN-f'n-till. Infantile
paralysis is known as POLIOMY-
ELITIS, pronounced PAH-lee-oh-

Beaumont-How did the Pacific
and Atlantic Oceans get their
names?-T.
Answer-The Pacific (peacefuD
was named by the explorer Magel-
Ian in 1920. In navigating the ocean
he met with peaceful weather. The
origin of the name Atlantic Is in
doubt. One theory is that the ocean
was named for the legendary lost
continent Of Atlantis. Another is
that it was named for Mount Atlas
In Lydia.
Breese-Why are the "p" and IS"
silent in the word CORPS?-M.

West opened the ten of diamonds,
dummy winning with the king.
South mentally credited East with
the queen-jack of diamonds and
the king queen of clubs for his over
call of two diamonds. That left
nothing but the queen Of hearts
and some trumps for Vests double.
Since West was a good player, 1t
seemed inconceivable that he had
doubled on only four trumps; so
South looked for a way to make his
contract against all five trumps in
the West hand.
After some thought he found it.
He cashed dummy's ace OF dla-
monds, discarding a club from his
own hand, then led to the club ace
and rufied a club in dummy. He
regained the lead with the heart
ace to ruff another club in dummy.
Then he cashed dummys heart
king, ruffed q heart and led his last
club toward dummy.
BY this time West was stripped
down to his five trumps. He had to
play a low trump, while dummy
Tufied with the spade queen. Then
dummy returned q heart, South
ruffng with the five OF spades,
West was forced to over-ruff and
return a trump from his jack up to
South's ace-king-ten. South thus
made his contract!

favorably to this appeal.

favorably to this appeal.
In June of last year, President
Roosevelt issued an executive or
der establishing a Committee on
Fair Employment Practices. 1t
was ordered that the vocational
training programs should have no
race or color barriers. It was also
ordered that all new war con-
tracts should specify that the
contractor not practice discrimi-
nation in his hiring policies.
Since that time, Negroes have
Jared better. Airplane factories
in California, for instance, are
complying with the order and
now employ skilled Negroes for
skilled work. Unions have agreed
not to object to the employment
of colored workers, and positions
are being found for them in the
shipyards and in other defense
industries.
There has also been some i'm
provement in military opportuni-
ties for the Negro. Before the
passage of the Selective Service
Act. it was difficult for Negroes
to enter any military service, but
In the fall of 1910 it was an
nounc that colored applicants
would be accepted in every ma
jar branch of the Army. A few
months ago the Navy announced
that 1t, too, would accept Negro
enlistments. The Air Corps set up
a special squadron for Negro
filters ard serviced 1t with colored
ground forces.
There are many other encour-
aging signs of Negro progress.
Colonel eBnjamin o. Davis was
promoted to the rank of briga-
der general, and thus became
the first Negro to hold that po-
sition. Not long ago DR.. William
Lloyd lines was elected to the
Board of Union Theological Sem
mary. He is the first Negro to
The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1942-12-23

serve on the board OF a major
United States school.
Such signs show clearly that
Negroes have much to gain in
victory for democracy in this
war. America has not solved many
of the difficult questions involv-
in the Negro, but an honest eff
fort is being made. hTe American
attitude is to better the position
of our colored population as
rapidly al adjustments acn be
made. In this attitude, we are
following the tradition of our
early humanitarians = tradition
which is sharply in contrast to
the Axis policy of turning the Ne
gro back to slavery and ignor-
ance.

education for Negro children.
However, the big hurdle here is
a financial one. for income
throughout the South are much
below the national average. The
problem of financing remains to
solved.
A further development was the
now-famous Supreme Court de-
cis:on in the Gaines case. Gaines
was a Missouri Negro who wanted
to study law at the University of
Missouri. The Supreme Court rul.
ed that the state was obligated
to furnihs him within its Dor
ders facilities for legal eduaction
substantially equal to those
which the state then afforded to
the white race" No doubt it will
be some time before every south
ern state lives up to this ruling,
but the University of North Car
DINA now operates a low school
especially for Negroes at Durham.
Segregation in the border states
appears to be less rigid, and some
| institutions in such states as West
Virginia and Maryland have taken
Negroes into certain graduate
and professional schools.
The border states eprmit Ne
gro voting. This is true in Ken
lucky, West Virginia, Missouri,
Maryland, and Oklahoma, though
not in Tennessee. Together with
the northern states, they produce
a Negro electoral of about 2 "
millions. In tn deep South Ne
groes with uncertain educationa
backgrounds are sometimes al
lowed to vote in local elections
Some twelve states have Negr'
members IN their Legislators, ant
there is one Negro in Congress.
The demand for man-power IL
war production seems to be i'm
proving the Negroes lot in indus
try. In the past few decades. ant
especially since the depression
Negroes have been limited to per
sonal service and hard, unskillet
