Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph Miller, 523
Colfax AM. No, received the fol-
lowing letter Of Christmas greeting
from their soldier son just before
Christmas. He is somewhere in
Africa The letter is so interest
ing, with the permission of the
parents, we reprint it here:
December IL, 1912.
Somewhere in Africa.
Hello Nom and Dad:
I'll write small in order to get
most of my letter on this special
Christmas greeting the army is al
lowing US. I wrote a letter before
but I doubt if you received it yet.
We are all well and contented for
the time being. Africa is not at
all country that I had visioned it
to be. This section that / am in,
surprised me a great deal. Some
of the cities are very modern to
a respect even though the Arabs
are dirty and ragged. Panhanding
must have taken its start here. The
small kids just about chase you
around begging and the items that
they ask for most are chewing gum,
''bom-boms" (ife savers) and
smokes.
The older French people even lose
some of their respect and pride
to ask the American soldiers for
chewing gum or "bon-bons." This
seemed strange at first for adults
or the numerous kids to continue
this act. But they must have been
out Of these sweets for a long
time.
Some Of the Arab customs I've
heard about-such as, the women
concealing their faces behind wells.
The French are very friendly to
US. We are getting accustomed to
use Of their French francs, which
one dollar is worth 75 francs. The

LETTER FROM SON IN AFRICA

little Spanish / know comes in ham
dy. if they speak Spanish we can
gather the information we want to
know through a few Spanish words
and hand signs. Some Of the
French words are similar to Span
ish and that also helps us.
Every day you can see the Arabs
out with their baskets Of tanger-
ines or the small donkeys loaded.
They really load them and also
those French and Arab buses.
The early morning buses haven't
anything on them. Most of the
cars here burn charcoal as a source
of fuel. The reason / wrote about
these things, because / know you
would like to hear of them.
1 guess everyone home has the
Christmas spirit. Well it isn't 50
hard for me because / have wit
messed a Christmas away from
home before. Tell everyone that
/ wish them a Merry Christmas
and all of the sayings that go with
it. 1 hope that Christmas this year
will be one Of the happiest for you.
1 know I'll always remember it.
When you write tell me everything
that has happened since have left.
How are Jimmy and Evelyn do
ing in school, what Bob is doing
and about Tomboy Marlyn. Are
my two little nieces talking yet?
Let Joe and Mildred know how
things are because this is the only
letter / am able to write that viii
have any chance Of making the
Christmas date.
A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS

Attack Red Cross for
Jim Crow Practices at
Home and Abroad

inexplicable the attitude of the
American Red Cross. Insistence
upon it of Jim Crowism not only is
a needless irritation to Negro SOL
diers and officers who are, presum-
ably, in the American Theater of
Operations to fight for democracy
but it will inevitably aceentuate
prejudice or ignorance on the part
of some American white soldiers so
far as Negroes are concerned. And
1 need only mention here the wide
spread and growing resentment of
English people at the foisting Of
American racial segregation pat
terms on Englishmen and English
territory. We further understand
there are a considerable number
of white Red Cross workers who
are bitterly opposed to this intro
duction of segregation which more
accurately fits a Hitlerian than a
democratic way of life"

part effectively in the campaign.
Americans of the colored race
should be proud of the service of
their representatives in combat,
the General continued. He cited es-
pecially the steadfastness and brav-
cry of the Ordnance Company
which successfully handled the de-
livery of high explosive bombs at
Anew, continuing to put the
bombs ashore under heavy fire at
this little port near Oran.
General Eisenhower said that this
demonstration of courage was
significant indication of what could
be anticipated from American
colored troops in the future.

NAACP CONTINUES ATTACK
ON jim CROW RED CROSS

New York, N. Y.-Voicing vigor-
Gus opposition to the Red Cross
plan to continue with the introduc-
ton and extension of segregation
in England and other places by
labelling certain Red Cross clubs as
exclusively for Negroes in the Eu-
ropean theatre of operations" the
NAACP this week stated in a let
ter to Mr.. Norman n. Davis, Presi-
dent of the American Red Cross:
at is our information that prior
to the above action Negro soldiers
have eaten, used the recreation
rooms, lounges and shower rooms
and all other facilities of non-segre-
gated American Red Cross Clubs
without difficulty of any sort with
but a very few exceptions. This
makes all the more indefensible and

Even lingerie has sacrificed many

The shortage Of metal is chang
ing the construction of such every
day objects as office files and
handbag frames. Dozens Of IA
miliar items, altered or eliminated,
can trace fate to the rigid restric-
lions on all metals. Mattresses,
matches and myrrh all know there's
a war going on. As the year ends,
meat comes under war orders. The

Even notions show the metal cur
tailment-pins, hooks, and eyes,
sewing gadgets are no longer avail
able in lavish quantities. Naphtha,
important in domestic cleaning, is

of nylon, that magic fiber promis-
ing new developments for the fu-
ture.
With oil rationing, America loses
many Of its overheated houses. Un-
necessary optical goods-sports-

to more important uses. Olive
drab is not available for civilian
use heading off an otherwise in
evitable fashion.
P
At first assumed to be the easy
substitute for metal, plasties are
disappearing from the field Of
gadgetry. Printed fabrics, because
Of the copper rollers necessary in
making them, are limited in type
and quantity. Spring patterns will
be designed to save fabric. The
baby's perambulator IL stripped Of
its shining trimmings. Mechanical
pens and pencils no longer have the
eye in gay profusion. Paints have
lost some Of their quick-drying and
gloss ingredients.

Quinine, like other imported
drugs, is limited to its most vital
uses. Medicinal and iavoring
plants, little cultivated in this coun-
try, will be short for the duration.
Even kitchen herbs are scarce.
Gourmets will have to do without
many favorite condiments.
