 The names and numbers of the ships sunk, as well as many other details, are shrouded in censorship. But the fact is not withheld that the U-boats are active.

Jesus Christ went to the heart
Of the matter when he said that
mankind must have first of all a

The peace we seek grows out of a

be done. AS I said in my Baptist

a few months ago. "this WORLD

Negroes In The Big Leagues

The question of Negroes playing ball in the big leagues
is being rather freely discussed by sports writer's the big
baseball and by Judge Kennesaw Mountain Lands
himself The subject has already been fertile discussion
for Negroes The recent interest in the subject not the
first time it was discussed Questonnares players in
the American and National leagues have indicated that
most of them have objection to playing with Negroes
We hardly conceive of the public who generally want
their moneys worth raising any serious objection.

BETWEEN THE LINES
A War Diagnosis

QUITE AS IMPORTANT as Wars
themselves is a clear understand
ing Of their causes FOR 10 these
many centuries nations have
fought for economic advantage
and it is safe to say that by far
greater number of wars and the
greater wars have been rooted in
some economic motive.
IN other words, the wars OF the
past have been bread wars-Wars
of nations fighting for bread
These bread wars have wrecked
empires and civilizations and have
overthrown monarchs of mighty
domain. Although our religionists
and idealists have dreamed of a
time when wars among men would
cease, such happy time seems far
removed in some ethereal distance
too deep for human ken.
Fol all we know wars will be
upon mankind for many centuries
yet to come for the simple reason
only change of heart will bring
an end to war and humans are not
in the habit of changing their
hearts until all othtr measures
have failed, and these are multi
tudes.
BREEDS HUMAN WOE
Man has to agonize before he
will moralize. This breeds no end
of human woe. Although the last
world war regarded as economic
in its origin, closer inspection
of the underlying motives will re-
veal the race element so studi-
ously overlooked by our historians
The nation of race superiority
dominates the thinking and plan
ming of the German people.
This notion is deeply imbedded
in the German mind and motivates
much of his attitude towards the
present world. Under the kaiser
who lies dead in Doom today
Germany arose to one of the COM
handing positions of any modern
nation. 1t grew FESTIVE under the
world Nominations of Great Britain
and the first world war.
It is true that the stakes in the
wa were economic in many ways;
but underlying this drive for eco

CRUCIFIED OPPORTUNITY

1t is hard to see where Japan
can be blamed for forming an al
lance with Hitler if such alliance
promises more than our pretended
friendship. It is one of the most
appalling prospects that we are
being forced to defend ourselves
against a nation whose goodwill
today would mean perhaps the
difference between victory and de-
feat in a war for national exist
ence. But our Wanted notions Of
race superiority crucified one Of
the nations vital opportunities.
If Hitler wins the battle of the
Atlantic he will win 1t by reason
Of our being too busy with Japan
in the Pacific. The tragedy of
war; The greater tragedy of war
based upon an theology which has
no scientific standing. Let us not
forget the diagnosis while befail-
ing the symptoms of war. This is
but the beginning of sorrows that
racism is bringing upon the earth.
