My New ls4S AstrologY Readings Are Ready

W. H.: 1 am a young married
woman 20 years old. 1 have been
married a couple of months to a
man I love very much. My problem
is this he has started drinking.
Each week it gets worse. He comes
home on payday broke. If not that,
he doesn't come at all. Last week
he stayed away two days. Do you
advise me to continue to stay on
with him, as he really can do good
when he wants to.
Ans: Yes, 1 do advise you to
continue on with him and give
your marriage a fair chance
but 1 don't contend that you should
sit there and hold your hands and
allow him to come in any hour of
the night and any day he wants to.
If you don't use your influence
while you are young and newly
married, you are just lost insofar
as having any control over your
husband is concerned. You can't
lay down the law and demand a
long list of dos and dOn'ts. But
you certainly can let him know
what you expect of marriage if you
are to remain his wife. When he is
sober and reasonable, you might sit
down and have a heart to heart talk
with him and let him know you
mean business. Then get a job and
let him see that you are independ-
ent of his support. In many cases,
a definite understanding of this
kind is all that it takes to put a
marriage on the right basis.
Dot: About two weeks ago
went to a dance and while I was
there fell for a boy the minute
looked at him. 1 would like to be a
very close friend of his and would
also like to know how l can get
acquainted with him. Tell me would
it be nice if 1 were to walk up to
him and make myself acquainted? ?
Of course, am nice looking and
dress nice, so everyone says.
Ans: This brazen method of in
PRODUCTION wouldn't put you in a
very favorable light with this
young man. If you are sincerely
interested in meeting him, why
don't you ask the young fellow he
was with to introduce you? Some
times young men are inclined to
Judge you by first impressions q.
and you don't want to give him
the wrong ideas.

Chivers SdYs Erickson.
County Auditor, Is
DiScourteous

In my opinion, AL P. Erickson,
candidate to succeed himself as
county auditor, is not entitled to
the vote of the colored people of
Hennepin county. When Negroes
call at his office on a personal
matter, he never shows them the
same courtesy shown white callers
by asking them over to his desk.
Instead he stands at the counter
and talks so that the whole con-
versation can be heard. This and
other things of which Mr.. Erickson
is guilty indicates to me a feeling
of superiority.

The Strength Of
Freedom
BY RUTH TAYLOR

The first time | heard that phrase
it came from the lips of one of the
truly great elder statesmen of the
Labor movement. There was Il life
time of experience in his tone when he
said. I'VE underestimate the strength
of freedom"
What he had learned in his years
of struggle to improve the conditions of
mis- fellow workers. is the secret of the
power of democracy. 1t is the vital
spark of reserve power that makes us
sure of the ultimate victory in this
war against tyranny.
There is ii hidden strength to free
dom, an innate power which is invinc-
ible. Fearful souls speak much of the
might of the totaitarian nations. of
the forces of despotism But all of
these are as nothing beside the strength
of freedom. Freedom has powers be
side which the powers of armed might
crumbe into their native nothingneSS.
There is Il balance of power in free
dom because it is applicable To all
without regard to class, color or creed.
| Without equal rights for all there Is
no freedom for any-no liberty, just
license to oppress for the favored few.
Freedom means the possession of self
initiative and the eXerce of the powers
of deliberation. 1t takes courage to be
free, because it demands the accept
ance OF duties as well as of rights, but
once freedom is achieved it gives TO its
followers Il satisfaction not obtain
able elsewhere.
Freedom is unafrad. Where there is
free speech, there is Il remedy at hand.
Truth is free and the lie need not 20
unanswered.
A man who is free is strong man.
He is free from the chains of hate or
prejudice, from fear, seiiShneSS and
despair. The man who is free ha :
learned to walk alone, to think and de-
eide for himself. He does not lean on

is not enough. We must give more and
serve more. We must increase our
efficiency to the utmost. We must throw
all our reserve strength and skill into
this struggle :.
Going on to emphasize the necessity
for all-out production with no stop
pages of work, Green said:
The no-strike pledge for the dura-
ton, Solennly made to the Commander
in-Chief of Americas war forces must
be religiously kept No action must be
taken by labor which will cause a
moments interruption in industrial pro-
duction until the war is won and Hitler
and his associates go down to defeat.
I'VE are face to face with the great
est crisis of our history. We cannot
continue business as usual or strikes
as uual during such period. All our
liberties, including the right to main
tain free and democratic trade unions
and to strike for any cause, hang in
the balance in this war.
isn't it obvious that labor must
stay on the job now in order to pre-
serve for all time the right to strike
against injustice? Isn't it clear that
strikes for any cause now will only
help Hitler deprive us forever of the
right to strike?
Let us face the facts and act ac-
cordingly. We must refrain from work
stoppages of any kind now in order to
maintain our freedom and opportunity
to seek economic and social advance
ment for labor when the war is over
and peace restored.
Il appeal to the workers of the ma
ton to make IA firm and unshakeable
resolution on this Labor Day that the
no-strike pledge given to the President
of the United States will be faithfully
observed by every one of them for the
duration"

The AFL chief warned that -Ameri

He spoke of the Forthcoming peace
