Negro soldier il black General
can have the gall and the intel
leetual and moral dishonesty to
misrepresent them and to argue
for the application of a Hitler
method in the midst of a war to
beat the pants off Hitler and his

ment because he refused to pros
titut his principles as a patriot
and a Negro. Last week the Ma
tional Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People a
warded Hastie the Spingarn med
al. There are people who like to
say that the NAACP is an organi-
cation for the classes and not the
masses. But we are positive that
in this award to Hastie, the
NAACP spoke not only the con-
viction of the masses of American
Negores, but also in the spirit of
true lovers of democracy the wide
world over.
II General Davis has upheld the
arm of the Army and Navy in the
blood policy of the American Red
Cross, then we do not hesitate to
say that he too deserves an award.
If the General is guilty then we
think the right person has been
found to wear the Iron Cross
which President Roosevelt = we
think mistakenly upon the
News John O'Donnell.
And if it isn't true then Gen
eral Davis ought to say so and
someone cGght to take Howard
Whitman and the Daily News to
task.
The hoaor of the highest Negro
officer in the United States Army
is at stake. The honor of our race
is at stake and the decency and
respect of this nation and the
cause of the United Nations is in
jeopardy.
We feel that we speak, not
only for thousands of readers, but
also for millions of Americans
when we say, in no uncertain
terms:

A new WORLD

A friend of Father Peter Starin
C. SIS. r., in New York recently
sent him some verse which Faith
er has passed on to us. The author
of the lines is a Jewish boy, Cor
poral Samuel Nash, stationed IN a
camp in the east.
I'm afraid to look at the outside
world;
Where guns are flashing. and
flags unfurled;
A world with hat and violence
Because of a madman's crazy
dreaming.
I'm afraid to look when the men
return,
For fear their hearts shall fiercely
With fury and hatred for things
they love.
Shattered and ruined by shells
from above.
Men of the world, fight! fight! till
the bitter end,
Till the appeased God, His Peace
shall send.
Then shall there be no war; no
earthly hell;
No bursting bomb, no screaming
shell.
can see the beauty of grander
world,
Where threats shall ne'er again
be hurled;
Where men shall smile; and
men shall say,
"What a wonderful world!
What a beautiful day!@

people of Oakland? Their corporation
should have purchased this forest, not
for our sakes, but for its own sake.
That forest was certainly needed if
the people want to use their bath
tubs"
Then Brother Tree-Climber spoke
Iup, and said; "Now silly one, what
does the forest above Rosedale have
to do with Oakland bath tubs ?"
Don't you know" she replied
Haven't you heard about Oakland's
water famine? Most Of the town folks
think that another well bored for the
cannely at Mountain Lake Park has
diverted the normal flow from the
Oakland reservoirs. That might be a
factor; l am not able to deny nor
affirm. But anyone knows that de
nuding the forests is a constant fac
tor in lessening water supply. This
ridge drains north in the direction Of
Oakland's wells. Now that the trees
have been removed the water is not
held back long enough to seep down
to the level from which it obtains it's
supply The forest is like giant
sponge that by its roots holds the
water letting it gradually seep to the
depths of the underground streams.
When the sponge is gone there is
nothing to hold it. So it rushes down
over the top, carrying vital soil into
swamps and streams and endangers
the land with destructive floods"
Brother Nut Cracker took the floor
again: THAT sounds mighty sensi-

have met their problems can give
us some interesting tips for solv-
ing our own.
Take the question Of caring for
the children Of the women who
work in industry "a question that
bedevils every country at war.
Australia maintains kindergartens
and child care centers which 60
further than ours. They care for
children from am. till 7 pm,
remain open six days week,
serve the youngsters three meals
a day and help supervise their
home work. Mother does not have
a great deal left to worry about.
A number of Australian indus
trial plants have done all they
could to take household cares off
the shoulders of their women
workers, by maintaining staff
of visiting housekeepers who visit
their employees homes whenever
there is sickness or some other
trouble. Other plants run a shop
ping service for the women who
are building Australian planes and
tanks. Besides this a number OF
factories have installed halrdress-
ing salons, library services, banks
and post office facilities at the
plants, to save wear and tear on
their women workers.
Australians also have taken spe-
cial precautions to protect their
women in industry. They make
every woman industrial worker
wear a close-fitting one-piece safe
ty suit, with attached hoods which
prevent hair from getting caught
in the machinery. The suits have
no belts or buckles to snag on
factory mechanisms and they are
fastened with leather buttons to
lessen the danger Of static cleo
tricity. CA lot of manufacturers
in this country who complain thai
their women workers will not con-
form to safety regulations, mlgh1
be relieved if suits like those were
made compulsory
We may think we live under
restrictions, but they are nothing
compared to those Australian wom'
en- face. Their clothing is rigidly
rationed; they cannot buy evening
clothes or playsuits and they are
forbidden to send evening clothes
or upholstery to the dry cleaners
Australia butchers and grocers
are so restricted as to deliveries
that Australian women have e

Blue-red lipsticks and clear light
