confidence.

and so, after meeting most of
the company and Jack Benny
himself, | got down to business,
the private talk part, and Roches-
ter obligingly promised to do
what | asked in the way of help
ing me with a certain project.
Then, to complete the visit,
switched the talk over to the
other thing: Rochester's start
and climax to fame. l wanted e.

something about it.
He "smelled a mouse" right
away and faltered.
Look here" he warned me.
"a lot of newspaper people hav'
got the wrong idea about Ne
gro actors and players" Tile
referred to the Negro press.
And although they are not
hurting me at all. | hate to see
them gum up the works for
young actors coming on by trying
to be "all holy" and eXacting in
their criticisms"
He went on to say that the
pleasure-seeking and theatre-go-
ing public liked true portrayals
and it liked fun and laughter,
and if it takes a dice game to
give this then a dice game must
be included in the picture" He
further limited at an overdose
of race-consciousness on the part
of the critics. He finally put me
off on the matter of how and
when he had started.

will entertain the service men

He said that he had been with
Jack Benny since Easter seven
years ago. He had been given
an addition for the selection of
character of "Train Porter"
He had scored and then applied
himself in earnest to the role,
and all future roles-all of which
has resulted in Eddie (Roehes-

to ask some of the other MEM

STATEMENT BY A. PHILIP
RANDOLPH - "WHY HE DOES
NOT ELECT TO RUN FOR
CONGRESS"
| wish to profess my profound
appreciation for the interest and
fine spirit of cooperation that my
friends have shown in attempting
to get me to stand for election
for Congress in the 22nd Con-
gressioal district of New York
City. After giving this matter
my serious thought, l have come
to the conclusion that l do not
elect to run for Congress. My
reasons are as follows:
1. l do not wish to become in
volyed in the entanglements of
politics and politicians, although
l have the highest respect and
admiration for the race pride, in
tegrity and spirit of independence
of such men as Herbert Bruce,
Democratic leader, and Harold c.
Burton, Republican leader, and a
number of others, in our COM
munity.
2. 1 am unconvinced that |
cannot render useful service to
the cause of the Negro people,
the workers of our community,
outside, as well as inside Con-
gress. In fact. l believe that a
Negro should be elected to Con-
gress from New York, and of
course, one will as a result of
the new reapportionment, but l
do not share the opinion that 1t
will achieve the results in terms
of Negro advancement, apparent
ly geneally expected by the peo-
pie, unless the composition of the
House was such as to render the
position of the Negro Congress-
man unusually strategic in vot-
ing on various issues. His work
would be largely propagandstic
through the presentation Of his

Truck Tire Crude

Standard sizes OF civilian
truck tires will have less crude
and more synthetic rubber

content will be approximately
35 per cent and will lessen the
drain on the remaining stocks
of natural rubber Still left in

The decrease in the proper
ton Of crude 10 synthetic has
been made possible by the in
crease in the supply Of high
tenaclty rayon cord. Use of
rayon IN truck and bus tires
offsets the destructive heat
