Physical Work and the Heart
As a matter Of fact a number Of
these bad, orgsn.Cally diseased
hearts stand up very well in war
service. Physical work and exer-
else do not cause heart disease"
says Dr.. Paul White, o. Boston,
one Of the leading American su-
thorities.

Of which We used to hear so much.
Strictly speaking, an athletes
heart is one that is enlarged or
otherwise injured or strained by
the athletic work he has been do
ing. Ana according to everyone
who eyer investigated the subject,
there amt no such animal"
Many athletes do grueliug track
work or competitive work with
hearts that are badly damaged -
but damaged by previous disease,
not by athletics.
A doctor began examining track
athletes and IN a short time had
accumulated these cases;
A 31-year-oid man played SO

heart was greatly enlarged in

but neither OF these was due to
the exercise. He had a history OF
rheumatic fever in childhood, and
the doctor who attended him then
said his heart was enlarged and
he had a murmur when he was II
years old.

Newsprint Cut

WASHlNGION, NOV. rs tUP)
The War Production Board an
nounced yesterday that the WPB
newspaper industry advisory COM
mittee has recommended an over
all reduction of % per cent in
the use of newsprint by news
paper publishes in the first quar-
ter of 1914.
The reduction for the industry
as a whole would be from the
amount used in 1941, with GER
tain adjustments.
Harry NJ Bitner, director of
WPB's printing and publishing
division, said that the cuts pro-
posed by the advisory committee
will range from nothing for some
of the smaller papers TO as high
as % per cent for some of the
larger ones.
SAVE 1874. 900 TONS OF PAPER
The use cut. Bitner said. is de-
signed 10 save approximately
1874 900 tons Of newsprint.
The advisory committees rec
concentrations were in the form
of a resolution which said:
THAT the Oct. 10 action OF
this committee recommending
that 1914 allowable use be based
upon I943 allowable use or
quota, whichever IN the larger,
be rescinded, and further re-
solved;
THAT the quarterly base
quota of each newspaper, COM
mencing i'm the year 1914. shall
he 400 per cent Of the amount
Of paper used In printing Its
net paid circulation In the cor
responding quarter of 1871,
plus 3 per cent for waste, plus
the percentage OF increase of
it's net paid circulation of the
fourth quarter OF 1912 over the
fourth quarter Of 194I. From
this. base, deductions shall be
made TO conform with the
available supply Of print paper"
255.0O0 TONS A MONTH
Harold Boeschenstein head of
the War Production Boards forest
products division, told the adviS-
DRY group that II would be unwise
for publishers 10 count on more
than a total supply Of newsprint
approMmating 255. 900 tons a
month which must cover all uses
IN the year ahead.
He said that newsprint deliv-
cries from Canada may be limited

next quarter compared with DO
900 tons a month this year United
States monthly production of
newSprint is estimated at $4,000
tons, and that OF New Foundland
between 1900 and 5000 tons.
BoeSchenstein said that these
figures indicate a total annual
supply Of approximately 1850. 900
tons, as compared with 3,915O00
tons in 1871, or about a % per

HUMAN FREEDOM
This little gem from the weekly
column written by DR.. F. D. Pat
terson, president of Tuskegee In
stitute is worth consideration:
THE SOUTH feels that by and
large it's long time experience in
dealing with the Negro has given
it priority right to work out its
own salvation In doing this it
ignores, quite largely, the fact
that it's usual pattern is entirely
inconsistent with newer notions
Of human freedom and the ideals
of the democracy for which we
fight. AS long as this is true
it can expect to be nagged at by
other sections of the country, part
ly because of the sincere desire to
see the nation uniform in the treat
ment of it's people and also because
any such indemocratic method
works directly into the hands of
those who wish to make political
capital therefrom.

Says Race Should
Live Dangerously

HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va -
(SNS)-The question of whether
the Negro should live danger
ously' or seek to improve his lot
through a gradual process was
discussed at Hampton Institute
last Monday, in a panel discussion
on urgent problem in elementary
and secondary education today.
Five members of the college
summer school faculty and a visit
ing professor from New York
University participated in the dis
cussion, in which it was agreed
that the teaching of democracy
continues to be a persistent
problem.
The question Of finding a wider
application of democratic princip-
les led to a consideration of the
exclusion of the Negro from full
democratic rights and techniques
for his securing these rights.

the sociology department at More

By PERCY GREEN
PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT

just might as well be frank
ana come on out with what I have
nad on my mind for a long time.
AS | got around to my favorite
spots thought I would give more
than my usual attention to the
conduct Of my folks, whose loud
ana sometimes vulgar talk on the
bus, in public places and on the
street has long been held up as
one OF our most serious faults, by
friends and foes, alike I think I
can honestly say that I observed
some noticeable improvements in
that respect, which make me think
that the efforts of the press, the
pulpit, the school, etc, in that di-
rectlon is beginning to bear fruit.
Another thing that came to my at
tention, though, as I got around,
was that, while we were not talk
Ing too much and too loud, in
many instances, I found us still
smelling too loud, and I don't mean
perfum. Which makes me think
that we SMELL as well as how
we talk, and maybe more so, has
something to do with our coming
along in this world Which leads
me to hope that while we decrease
our loud and vulgar talk on the
streets, in the buses, and in pub
lie places, we will increase the
habit of TAKING A BATH, es-
pecially in this hot weather.
Things that made me Laugh:
Those two little children stopping
suddenly in open mouth wonder
to look at Barber Blue, with his
mouth wide open, asleep in his
chair, Saturday Evening-H you
ever seen him?-the other day
when 1 walked up on that lady's
front porch on Church Street, and
one OF the ladies inside the house
yelled, Look! Look! Look, child,
here's man, and he's civilian
and that well known Parish Street
Beautician who stopped me to tell
me about how excited she was
when she got that $50 by wire
from soldier at Fort Huachuca,
she'd recently met here, who told
me the other day that she'd been
down to Fort Huachuca, to see him,
but didn't want anybody to know
it.
