Christ, but rather an advance
and a far forward stride in the
scope and effectiveness of its
work in behalf of the King
dom of God in this community
and on the earth. Under the
brilliant and inspired leader
minister, the Reverend Benia-
min johnson Anderson, this
body has purchased, for cash,
the former Women's Christian
Union Building at SAL MasSa-
chuSettS ave, Boston, and will
shortly serve its members and
friends from that address.
Rev. Anderson is fairly new
to this city having come here
to pursue his theological stud
les at the Andover-New
Theological School from which
institution he was graduated, a
ranking student, on June 9 of
this year. He is a native of
Birmingham, Alabama, the son
of the late DR.. Benjamin
Johnson Anderson, ST., prom
es, with pride, no spiritual re-
trenchmentS in these days of
inent dentist of that city and
of Mrs. Gertrude Fisher An
derson, founder and owner of
the Nanette Homemade Can
dies Co., one of a number of
race owned and controlled
businesses of the South.
Rev. Anderson did his I'M
dergraduate work at MorehouSe
College, Atlanta, Ga, where he
covered himself with distinc-
ton as a scholar, musician,
and in the social and extra
curricular activities of the
scho oil, graduating as the
president of his class and class
orator. He is a member of the
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity.
In the short time that he
has ben serving this church
as interim minister, IS months,
he has won many friends and
admirers with his magnetic
personality, the brilliance Of
his mind, his deep interest in
and love for people, his gem
uine friendliness, and the sin
certify and eloquence of mis-
preaching. We extend to eV-
cry man, woman, and child of
this city an invitation to come
and share with us the privilege
of hearing this young and gift
ed minister of the Gospel.

We CAN TAKE 1T!
BY RUTH TAYLOR
For Charles Sickle, Inc.

The delayed action bomb
that was dropped at Pearl
Harbor has at last exploded
on our doorsteps. We no long
er can say that war will cost
us much. 1t has now cost US
our way of life. Sacrifice is no
longer of the future but of to-
day. How we accept it will de-
termine much of the fortunes
of WARRIOR though the gov
eminent may enforce regula-
tons and rationing, it cannot
determine public opinion. We
are a free people and our
minds are our own.
Every man of us has within
him fifth column SelfiShness
and Indifference" said Brit
ish Cabinet minister recently.
We have these fifth COMMUNISTS
among uS-but they are but a
small percentage of the peo-
pie. The majority, thoroughly
disliking the sacrifices which
have disrupted their lives,
have nevertheless risen to- the
occasion with a spirit of good
craftsmanship and cooperation.
But the liStering contempt, not
anger, which they have poured
on those who couldn't take it,
who sought special privileges,
has thrown the public empha-
sis on the minority, not the
majority.
Our history has proven that
our ability to sacrifice has
risen in direct ratio to the ma
tons need. We have taken it
in the passive can take it
again we will. The way
to settle this question of sac
rif1ce is to forget the small
percentage of those who can't
take it, and to sacrifice, work
and fight until this war is won.
Then we can go back-not to
complacency and blind iSola-
tionism, but to a watchful
guard over our way of life, so
that no foreign theology can
again threaten it, and we may
live in comfort and prosperity
as Americans should and shall.
The outlook is not all dark.
The fruit of sacrifice is ingen-
uity and invention. In the spir-
it in which the early pioneers
set their course through I'M
charted wilderness, learned to
use the fruits of the forest,
built homes and created gar
den spots where the foot of
man has not trod before, so
will we in the days to come
find that our sacrifice has not
been in vain, for we have
learned to use our brains. The
pioneer spirit still exists. We
will prove to the world not on
IL that we are as inventive as
ever-not only that we can
take it, but that We have wha.
1t takes.

COMMENTS
on
CURRENT TOPICS
by DR.. W. Alexander Cox

Living is high, taxes are
high and wages are high. All
OF us are victims of the first
two, but only a few benefit by
the latter" To be consistent
Organized Labor has an enroll
ment Of about twelve million.
1t has gained so much power
that 1t dominates American
Industry and dictates its Gov
ernmental Policy. The Ameri-
can Public has no right that
Organized Labor is bound to
respect.
Labor trouble began with
the world. It will end with the
world. It is an issue that never
will die. When used as a polit-
ical cudgel there is no end to
the trouble, misery and suf-
fering that it will bring upon
a Nation of peaceful people.
The labor racket has open
fronts for many subyersive &C
Invites. It has brought into be-
ing a new type of more avari-
cious capitalists. The laboring
classes will never be permitted
to understand, if pandering
them can prevent: that there
is not, never was, and never
will be non capitalistic ma
ton: that a capitalist is any
person who saves something
of what he earns, and his best
interests are served by sup
porting at the polls the In
dustrial Capitalist.
It would be difficult to cite
an instance Of labor history
when labor became SO powerful
that it did not end in bloody
revolution and overthrow of
government. Labor today is the
football of the two major Or
CARNATIONS. With the right to
strike sanctioned by law, there 4
is no estimate as to what may
happen before this portentouS
struggle Of life and death is
brought to an end.
Out in Coesse, Indiana, the
people are giving vent to their
feeling with widely circulated
advertisements. Some of the
high lights: "We want our boys
treated fair: but frankly we do
not think our nation is fair
enough now,-not while our
national will is being paralyzed
by personal ambition,-not
while the life-and-death needs
for uninterrupted production is
used for bureauracy,-not
while a man can't be employed
until he pays fifty dollars or
more to labor racketeers,-not
while strikes hamper war pro-
duction. We must stop fighting
for personal preferments in our
war agencies. Every delay
caused by selfish fueds is a
shot in the back aimed at our
boys in uniform. We are fight
ing the Axis: not against our
selves: then let US act that
way"
The Government now has in
operation s. Bureaus Of Ad-
miniStrative Law. The cost is
anywhere from one to five
hundred million annually for
each one. Some day the ques-
ton will be asked, what are we
paying Congress with it's many
committees for?
A few years ago Congress
paSSel the Antitrust Act.
That was a major setback to
business, There is now before
Congress a bill to suspend the
Act for the duration. The in
consistency Of pressure group
ed legislation.
On the business end will the
colored man always be the tail
to balance the other fellows
kite? We can at least show
some business foresight by
buying War Bonds.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 6. - If
the Charles County Hunt example
is followed in other rural Maryland

will be here by Spring. For under

president Of the. Charles County
Hunt, move has been started
among those gentlemen farmers
and hardriding fox hunters to re-
store to usefulness old carriages
and buggies many of which have
been laid up in barns for two gener-
atoms.
Grain already has shipped one
victoria and a single buggy or

to be put in driving condition. Not
only does Bennett propose employ
ing the horse and buggy for trans
Dc"tatiOn about his farm at Mt.
Victoria, but in order to conserve
his auto tires, may even bring one
of the carriages to Washington.
To those who at first didn't be-
lieve he was serious, Grain says:
IF the present stringent tire ra-
tiOning last two years you will see
a return to Washington of what
was formerly called the carriage
trade What Tm doing is no stunt
its just good horse sense tor all
those who are setup as we are at

MARYLAND ROADS

Reason the Maryland State
Roads Commission has decided to
re-advertise for bids for construc-
ton of a cutoff on route No. 40,
near Frostburg is that it hopes to
quiet down the wrath of G. c..
Sensabaugh, Cumberland contrac-
tor. Mr. Sensabaugh originally
was awarded the contract for the
job and then had it yanked away
all in the same day If Sensabaugh
is still low bidder, as he originally
was, he still may get the contract
Sensabaugh put in a bid of $51.-
1865 for the whole undertaking
involving about a mile and one
eighth of new highway and was
awarded the contract as a qualified
contractor and the lowest bidder.
The next lowest estimates were
$66,017.50 from the firm of Thomas,
Bennett and Hunter and a $6S,000
bid from Brotemarkle Bros.
Within hours after being told by
phone that he would get the job
Sensabaugh was called by Wilson
Ballard, chief engineer, who in
formed him he could not qualify
in certain particulars such as hav-
ing sufficient number of steam
shovels and adequate financial
standing.
Sensabaugh hurried off to Balti-

That labor shortage. anticipated

was just matter of selection. The

for these jobs, and these groups,
especially fitted for the positions,

from several more plants not at
present engaged in war work;
incidentally, several industrial

will have more war defense in

its size in the nation. - Bicycle

will be peddling to and from

comparatively little illness so
far this winter. - Those shanties

as the leading industrial town in
