be one OF the first to object 10 H.
This however, is not the case.
These Negro people went out there
to try TO own homes. Their effort
was a heroic act OF faith. We must
do all that we can 10 sustain their
faith in themselves. We must not
permit them TO be kicked out OF
their community because we do
not understand the issues.
The whites in the general COM
munity are now bringing pressure
TO bear on Congressman Dineell
and Dondero. to prevent any more
Negroes from coming into the
Eight Mile Road Wyoming Com
munity. by hating the project.
They are using the same tactics
that the people around the So
journer Truth Project used
against Negroes. The people In the
vicinity of Sojourner Truth, got
their congressman worked up over
the idea OF trying TO prevent Ne
groes from establishing them
selves in that neighborhood. II is
easily seen therefore that the
Eight Mile Road Wyoming situa-
ton is separated by nature from
the Willow Run Bomber Plant
fight.
IL also must be remembered that
when the Housing commission Of
ficially accepted the money for the
Eight Mile Road wyoming project.
there was no reference as TO
whether It would be a Negro or
white project. 1t was accepted Of
fcially as war project.
We just as well now make up
cur minds 10 fight for project in
that community. against the OPP
position OF whites who want TO see
all OF the Negroes moved from that
community. For me. and the poo
pie In that community. this Is go
ing TO be very important fight.
We tried 10 point out in the So
journer Truth fight. issues which
parallel the ones in this present
fight. II took some time then for the
leadership TO see II, and It may
take just as long for the leader
ship to see II in this fight We
need not be discouraged however.
It will come to us. like a bolt out
OF the blue.
The people in the Eight Mile
Road and wyoming section. need
10 be commended for seeing the is
sues so clearly at this time. The
leadership OF the Negro people was
evidently stunned by the order
from the federal government. that
Negroes would not be permitted TO
live in the Willow Run Bomber
plant. We all have right TO b.
Indignant and downright mad. over
that decision. We must all arouse
ourselves TO see TO II that Negroes
and whites who work together in
THE Willow Run Bomber plant, be
| given an opportunity TO live there.
In so doing however. II Is not nee
essary 10 deny the people OF Eight
Mile and Wyoming. protection and
improvements while We make the
fight for inter-racial occupancy.

Negroes Confused On Project Issues

Really the question on the Eight

whether We shall have a project
occupied by both white and Ne
groes. but rather whether We shall
have project at all. The whites

fighting against anything that viii
bring more Negroes into that sec

there will have chance TO stay.

small expenditure of either, are
patriotic gestures on her part.
So, today mother takes a few
wartime budget lessons at her
local sewing center and learns
from the experts how to use a
Upper foot attachment on sew
ing machine to make invisible
placket closings for slacks. She
finds that the couturier touches
are not difficult to achieve when
they can be done with machines
that turn out precision button
holes, tucks, fagoting, hemstitch-
ing and the like in practically
no time at all. And If she de-
cides that she likes to sew and
can do 1t well, she may even in
vest in one of those amazing
plastic-like dress forms that can
be nodded to the figure in just
half an hour and which eliminate
the need for trying on clothes.
These. incidentally, are especial
1y wonderful when making slacks,
for you can fit your trousers
through the midriff and the back
without danger of droopy ap-
pearance.
The lost art of dressmaking Is
being found again by American
women in wartime. Best of all,
they are making it a point to
teach the small fry, even while,
in many cases, they're learning
themselves. Young daughter will
love a sewing bee with mother,
starting on very simple things
and gradually working up to the
point where she can handle a
needle and thread with skill.
And the outcome will be a we'll
dressed feminine population
which has learned to conserve
and create their own fashions in
wartime.

The mantel may offer a sum-
merry effect with trailing plants
at either end and a low box of
Towering plants across the CEN
ter. More attractive would be one
of the large shadow" frames
which has a container hidden in
the back for water and carries
real live flower composition all
through the summer.
Many householders place ferns
or plants in the fireplace opening,
have it closed in the summer or
mask it with screen. Plants do
not thrive well in this location,
and the other arrangements only
serve to cover up something
which is too fine architecturally
to be treated this way.
Why not recognize this value,
keep the fireplace neat and ready
for use, and enjoy it's shining
brass and ready placed logs until
a rainy day when its warmth will

Start Acquiring Tan With Discretion

This is the perfect time Of
year to begin taking your daily
sunbath.
In most parts of the country
1t is now warm enough to lie in
the sun at midday with fairly
scant clothing. In fact this is the
season when sunbaths are truly
pleasant, before the weather gets
too hot and ones tendency is to
seek the shade.
The sunbath is one of the most
healthful and invigorating habits.
However, do go at it slowly and
build your suntan gradually-not
in one great fiery dose. Every
year hundreds of persons burn
themselves while lying in the
sun. This actually is dangerous
to health and even to life. Even
if your overdose is not enough to
be dangerous it may well mar
your skin so that it will never
look just the same again or will
take a year or so getting back
into it's former condition.
have always believed that ex-
treme doses Of suntan are not
good for the beauty of the skin of
the face and the neck, that is, if
you wish to look youthful years
from now. It dries out the natu-
raj oils and makes the face look
weather beaten. The skin may
stand this fairly well for several
years but eventually it begins to
show. Why not take your sun
baths from the chest down?
You will of necessity get some
sun on your face and neck If you
