and the two Alabama senators.
Delegates to the conference en-
phasized that in the light of the
election results, the splitting Of the
south over progressive issues, the
part the Negro is playing in the
war, and the impending signifi-
canoe of the color question in the
Pacific war, the time is now ripe
to spearhead a movement to de-
mand full and democratic rights
for the American Negro at home.
To achieve these ends the COM
mittees are now inviting to func-
ton in concert all liberal Negro
and white organizations both north
and south.
New York City Councilman Ben
jamin ]. Davis Jr., who for three
years worked on the Scottsboro
case, sent the following message to
the conference:
"This crime against Miss Tay-
lor is as bad as any Nazi brutality
seen in the war. The Alabama Of
ficials should be prosecuted under
the federal law for dereliction of
duty and for violation of the 18th
amendment which guarantees
equal protection. This is another
Scottsboro case, only in different
way. We beat them on the first
Scottsboro case, and we must beat
them in this. l am ready to offer
my legal services by special per-
mission of the court to assist the
forces of justice in this case but
more decisive is mobilizing the
forces of labor and the people and
the decent white southern senti-
ment. The recent lynching of the
Negro in Tennessee and the fail
ure to prosecute this case is the at
tempt of the poll takers to defy the
will of the people in re-electing
President Roosevelt.
On Sunday, Sept. 3, in Abbeville,
between II and IL pm. Mrs. Tay-
lor was on her way home from
church with 61-year-old Mrs. Fan
ny Daniels and her 18-year-old son,
West, when they were stopped near
deserted lot by six white hood
lums who emerged from a car
brandishing pistols and knives and

ants.
They found the driver of the
car, Huge Wilson, who confessed
and named the other rapists as
Penute Hasting, Skipper Reeves,
billiard York, Luther Lee and two
or three others.
The grand jury met, and after
hearing testimony of Mrs. Daniels
and her son, every member of the
gang was exonerated and set free.

war years. We should have listened
to history in the past, needed our
fathers who knew no such album
dance or luxury as have we. Mil
lions of American housewives
have found difficulty in purchas-
ing food although as a nation we
are far from starving. Yet, over
|8 percent of all the food bought
for home consumption is wasted
and this amount alone would feed
the greater part of our armed
forces here and abroad! There is
waste along the line that the
housewife can't help; from farm
through distributor to consumer.
An expenditure of lost time, and
manpower adds to the waste. But
this is no excuse for Kennewick
women to fail in the kitchen. The
lesson of waste in food is of
paramount Importance. The one

HEAD OVER HEELS

A suggestion comes to us re-
garding the involved wording and
intricate wording of tax forms
being simplified by calling in for
consultation such men whose bust
ness it is to clarity facts for the
public. The idea being to have a
few newspaper and advertising
men work on the reports sent to
the nations hard-pressed tax pay
ers. Adding accountants and sta
tisticians to the legal minds that
have already fixed the reports.
isn't apt to be much of a solution,
only probably getting us more in
volved. To make reading matter
understandable for the general
public is the job of the advertiser
and newspaper man. It might be
pretty good idea, at least the
taxpayer couldn't have it much
worse than it is now.

FARMER WOES

The grumbling of the farmer
persists in spite of the fact that
farmers received from crops and
livestock, double the income OF
1941 and third more than in
1912. The farmer has provided
for this nations food needs boun-
tifully and he has worked under
very trying conditions as we have
felt the hand of war in all lines.
Yet the farmer has achieved the
greatest income last year of any
year. The average income was
$500 a farm. But, the farmers
around Kennewick will tell you
Immediately that much of this
goes to buy aspirin tablets for
the agricultural headaches! He
will try to explain to you gov
eminent regulations and restric-
tons that he isn't too sure about
himself. Ceilings and subsidies
are his problems. To keep his
son as hand on the farm he la
bors with the draft board. To
get help to harvest he tries for
miles around and generally goes to
the government employment
agency where he hopes to find
workers. Then comes the mat
ter of priorities that he can re-
place SOME needed machinery.
For his price on milk he has to
see an official for the subsidy.
There are more that the farmer
might tell you of his headache,
in spite of his increased income.
This business of farming is an
uncertain affair, with the wealth
er of the seasons not to be guar
anteed or to find certain market
prices when he is ready to sell.
But the farmer still produces and
will continue to do so. He feels
he is big business today, as he
is indeed, and that he has reason
to grumble if outside interference
hinders his production.

PUTNAM COUNTY
Hold T. B. Test For
Putnam Cattle

Testing of cattle for tuberculosis
has been started in Liberty and Mon
roe townships, it was announced by
Putnam County Agent l.. c. Holt
kamp.
With state and local veterinarians
in charge, about 100 cows are being
checked each day. 1t is expected

years with cows having positive
reaction being slaughtered. Ap-
praisal of these animals is made by
the owner and veterinarian. Farm
ers have to pay one-third of the diff
ference between the appraisal value

drowned in a 15-foot hole in the old
Dunkirk stone quarry pool at $3.50
o'clock in the afternoon.

companied by her mother-in-law Mrs.
