/ Might Be Wrong--BUT
BY p. G. STROMBERG

THERE rs A growing ten
= dency to dismiss lightly the
many little holdups to our war
effort. We can't pay too much
attention to home troubles, when
our main trouble lies across the
Atlantic and Pacific, seems to
be the philosophy of those who
would ignore aggravating de-
lays. It is not a
HOldups sound viewpoint.
To Our It is the type of
War Effort philosophy which
obtained in France
before the Nazi hurricane de-
stroyed her national independ-
ence. It is folly to ignore the
increasing series of "walkouts"
in big and little plants when
the men heading these groups
Of workers are Tor should be)
as keenly interested in the
progress of our war effort as
the President himself. It is
true that since Pearl Harbor
our labor troubles have dropped.
But it is also true that we are
still facing delays and tie-ups
which should never be counten-
nanced. With a Government
as sympathetic to labor as is
the Roosevelt Administration
and with the many safeguards
set up to insure labor getting
fair deal there is no excuse for
any hot-headed labor leader who
dares hamper our national eff
fort.
These organized delays can
and should be controlled. But
there is another phase of the
labor situation which rests on
the individual. Much has been
heard recently of many work
ers taking the day off at their
own pleasure. The
Taking situation is said to
Day Or be serious in some
Won't Help plants. How any
man can deliber-
ately stay away from his job,
when that days work might be
so essential to the completion
Of the particular product on
which he is working, is beyond
understanding. Such a man is
not a traitor because he is
likely unaware of his impor-
lance. But he should be made
to understand how essential his
work really is. It would seem
practical and helpful to have
workmen frequently told Of the
I importance of their job. They
should be told in manner
which will leave a deep and
lasting impression on any man
intelligent enough to hold a
good job. The long days, (and
nights) which our men are re-
ouired to go through in far-off
places and the suffering and
death of many at Bataan, Mid
way, the Coral Sea and now at
Solomon's should be wildly pic
tured. How days work could

Mpls. Soldier Boy
Sends Greetings

Samuel D. (Sam) Mitchell, for
mer Minneapolis man now sta
toned at Aberdeen Proving
Ground, Aberdeen, Maryland, sent
greetings to the editor and staff of
the Spokesman and Recorder news
papers this week. He said, II re-
ceive the paper every week ION
time too) and l can depend on it.
1t is like pay day here, when it
comes in. Sometimes it is three
days before 1 can see it, the boys
take it and read it over and over"
Private Mitchell says he has
completed his basic training in the
small artillery school and will now
take eight weeks of technical train
ing. Private Mitchell also sent the
information about the voice contest
in which a home town boy was
awarded first prize. Read the story

like investing his time. You sold
yourself out of this deal, sister e.
and in the future when you are try
ing to make a man, better keep a
few tricks up your sleeve instead
of calling your own curtain with
the tOrrid love stuff.
Puzzled: The job that l have
now, l like fine. But the job at
school that am supposed to take,
l will have Saturdays and Sundays
off. l am undecided which of the
jobs l should take permanently.
Ans: The school job is the bet
ter place for you. You can be fair
ly sure of the permanency of this
school job, while the job you are
on is hardly more than temporary
due to the fact that your en-
plOyer's husband is subject to draft
most any day and she has warned
you that she cannot keep you on
under those circumstances. You
would make more money on the
school job and not only that, you
would have your week-ends off.
G. A: am rs years old, mar
ried, but my husband and l are
separated. We have been separated
seven times before. We just can't
agree on anything and 1 want to
know if we will ever make up again
and understand each other?
Ans: In cases of extreme in
compatibility, a divorce is the
only solution. For the short time
you two have been married, you
have worn your suitcases out pack
ing and un-packing. Your tempera-
ments are such that you will prob
ably never agree on anything. And
in my way of thinking, it would be
better for you to get your freedom
while you are both still young
enough to make fresh start with
someone else.

Gosh! If it weren't for the soldiers

like deserted villages.) The
St. Paul Urban Leagues dinner
certainly drew out a large crowd
last week at the Catholic Youth

600 people in the audience present
to hear A. PHILLIP RANDOLPH,
Labor Leader, speak. His speech
was warmly received and his dy-
manic personality and important
will long be remembered
by all. Many of the audience were
deeply disappointed though, when |

The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
will have it's monthly meeting on
Thursday.
The Adelphia Club met Tuesday
evening, September 20, at the home
of Mrs. Theodore F. Allen, 996

business meeting, plans were out
lined for the club year, 1942-43. A
social hour followed the business
meeting. Mrs. T. B. Cook is the
president and Mrs. Allen is the Sec

/ ported to the main desk to be
checked only to have the same
"red-head" clerk say that l could
not go this time, without giving
reasons. Then another "hand" be-
hind the desk, who appeared to be
speaking with more authority, told
me, point blank, that l could not
go on that ship because it was not
a regular army trip from Mime
apolis to Edmonton. They could not
tell me that there was no room be-
cause the plane was designed to
carry twelve passengers and there
were only 10 passengers registered
to go including myself. Therefore,
l just left the airport after l could
readily see that the clerks did not
want me to go because of some
personal reason or reasons.
On the morning of the 25th of
September, l got Mr.. Harry Lewis
of the Selective Service Advisory
Board to call and investigate. He
was told that the Northwest Air
lines just carried on the business
for the army, but would get me out
within three or four days. Since l
had heard this story for nine days,
l thought it necessary to intensity
the pressure. Later in the day l
got Mr.. Washington of the Urban
League with Mr.. Lewis of the
Draft Board and went to the Red
Cross.
The clerk in the personal service
section called the Northwest Air
lines to check with them. Here she
was told it would be compulsory to
get priority" in order to get me
up to Edmonton, Alberta, Canada,
and this could be done by calling
two other men which she called.
These two men, she was told by
them to call two other men to
check on this priority. During the
calling of these two men she was
told that the priority would have
to come from Washington, D. C.
The clerk at this point called on
Miss Rideout, the head of the Per-
sonal Service Section, to investigate
further. After several calls, one to
one of the overseers of the NWA,
Miss Rideout found out that the
priority idea was a method of evad-
ing the issue and covering up the
main purpose of the delay, which
was the fact that l was colored and
all passengers going North were
white. The manager who talked
with Miss Rideout told her that
there were a number of army
planes sent to Edmonton, Alberta,
Canada, during this nine day
period.
Very truly yours,
Benjamin C. Smith,
Sgt, U. S. Army.

and am sure that she is admired
by hundreds of fellows. Each night
that / go to watch her on the stage,
something just happens to me. /
asked her if she felt it too and she
said she did. l told her it must be
love E. but she says she can't af-
ford to let marriage interfere with
her career. Do you think she can
be sincere?
Ans: What she feels is not the
kind of love that calls for cooking,
washing dishes and a baby car
riage -. with the little white cot
tage and a picket fence. She has
become accustomed to the admira-
ton and glamour of public life, and
has too much talent to submerge
in dOmesticatiOn. Are you willing
to accept her on a partnership
basis :. love her, love her career
and share her with her public?
There are certain conditions you
will have to accept if you marry
her =. but if you are brOad-minded
enough to do so, there is no rea-
son why you two can't find happi-
ness together. Don't wake up two
weeks after marriage and suddenly
decide that she must change her
entire future just for you. Settle
this before marriage.
H. T.: l am in love with a man
and love him, only. Now l am
trying to be hard to get. But here
is my story. I wrote him a note
and told him what l thought of
him and now I feel that he won't
think as much of me. Should ]
have kept this, secret to myself?
Ans: You wrote your own price
tag when you sent him this love
letter. Now he is darn sure you
are easy to get and he won't feel

Hello Folks:

Hello Folks:
Football enthusiasts are on a

the older ones, too) enjoy them

Field were guests of honor. =. The
Twin City lassies really took ad-
vantage of this chance to meet a
number of new fellows for there
certainly were a large number on
hand to see that they had a good
time. A certain St. Paul lassie
