NEGRO WHO HAD
A WHITE LOVE

NEGRO WHO HAD
A WHITE LOVE
I have seen the most amazing
movie entitled Ell Negro Que Tenia
I'm Amor Blance-"The Negro Who
Had A White Love-" 1t is magni-
fcently filmed and was shown in
a playhouse on the Prado in the
heart of the city of Havana and
apparently without causing any
downtown this theater has seat
ing capacity of perhaps nearly q
thousand. Also is it true of most
the theaters, the day attended it
was filled.
The Negro started out in poverty
and eventually became the director
of dancing school and the train
er of many of the best dancing
choruses. He played the piano and
sang beautifully; was handsome
and cultuerd. There was not a single
attempt to '1owerate" or hlImiliate
him in any way.
There were various little things
which / noticed perhaps because

States and because of my know

and pride he embraces and kisses
the girl in the most natural man

every opportunity. AS a sensation
on the continent he escorted the
most fashionable women to the

CATHOLICISM AND DIVORCE
l haven't worn a hat a single
time since have been in Cuba.
Very few women here wears hats.
Perhaps it will be different during
the winter" season. So the other
day when I was invited to attend
church it was necessary for me
to go shopping for a vile. The
women wear the most gorgeous
lace wells which are afterwards
carefully folded and carried in
ones pocketbook. You select veil
very much like one selects hat
trying it on before a mirror.
Cuba is overwhelmingly Roman
Catholic. The churches are large
and richly ornamented with affairs
resplendent with lace and silk,
the priests with their colorful robes
and the fine paintings in gold
and silver frames, the huge golden
crucifixes and other gold and
silver ornaments; the odd life
sized effigies of the saints robed in
snow white satin copiously en-
broidered in gold, silver or beads
with representations of Jesus in
the sepulcher, and as in the Mer-
cedeS, regarded by some as the
most ornate church in Havana.

WOMEN KEEP RELIGION
ALIVE
During that weekend I visited
three churches. In each I was in
pressed with the fact that it is
the women hocking to mass with
their black lace wells who keep
religion alive. I saw very few men,
and they were usually old, in the
churches.
During the same week to my
utter surprise I read in the daily
paper that during the first six
months Of this year there were

AS in all communicable diseases,
much of the danger of the cold lies
in its possible after-effects. The best
treatment is to go to bed when the
symptoms first appear. Keep the

Homemade "doughnut" shaped pads
can give the same relief as CONNER

to fit any part of the body-heel, but

If the doctor orders the babys eyes
washed as a treatment for some abb

with pledget of cotton dipped in

white Man Crazy''

According to the Wisconsin Union
Farmer, a Cherokee Indian entered a
conversation essay contest conducted
by an Oklahoma newspaper. In it's
announcement of the contest, the
newspaper published two pictures;
one of washed-away field and the
other of a dam.
The Indian submitted the following
essay, which the Wisconsin Union
Farmer says in its opinion merits a
Pulitzer prize, with which we agree:
Both pictures show the white man
crazy. Make big tepee. Pillow hill
Water wash Wind blow soil, grass
all gone. Squaw gone, papoose too.
No chuck-away. No pig, no corn, no
hay, no COW, no pony Indian no pillow

ing; the people of America are
wholly free. We in Britain hear
the bombers cross to their work of
destruction every night, but we have
not yet realized what that work now
is. 1t is incomparabIy more devas-
tating than we experienced it in
1910.
Must Wars Go On?
If the war is to be settled militarily,
we may learn before the end what
that destruction is, but in any case
we ought to have the imagination to
understand what is happening now
and what will happen to future gener-
ations if wars go on.
And they will go on if the present
capitalist-imperialist system remains.
They will go on and they will be-
come more and more destructive; and
it is not now an exaggeration to say
that they can destroy not only i'm
mediate human happiness, but all that
is best and beautiful in civilization
what has come from the past, what
we can contribute now and what the
future can give.
Realizing this we must determine
and give effect to our determination
in action-that this period in which
we live shall see the beginning of
the establishment of that new world
Socialist commonwealth which can
not only lift humanity above war but
iberate it to a dignity, happiness,
freedom and fuIfilment beyond our
present realization

iHuid AS the Ney
If this be true analysis, we So
cialists have before us the biggest
task that ever faced us. 1t is a task
which should submerge our differ
ences. United, the left in Britain
could be strong. In America, too, it
could be Influential if all the many
elements could be co-ordinated Our
most imperative duty is to realize a
unity of the left for the defense of
the revolution in Europe.
A word about the war in the Far
East, which threatens to last so long:
The political key is India. Recognize
midas rights to independence and the
power of Japanese imperialism would
be undermined. India itself would be
the missionary of political freedom
among the Asiatic peoples, uniting not
only with China but with the peoples
of Burma, the Malays and the East
Indies. The political weapon of in
dependence would bring the war to
an end many years before 1949, which
is the estimate of the militarists.
There is a third aspect in which
August has been decisive: the rev.
citation of what war may mean to
humanity. The people of Britain
are comparatively free from bomb
