of money, and a great deal more.
 Since you and all the rest Of us are actually contributing to the as tronomical sums which make up the total cost of conducting a war such as we are engaged in it may not be entirely out of order for us to remind you of a reborn industry that is gratefully playing an inn portant part in the wartime econ omy of our nation.
 We have told you what One Bill lion Two Hundred Million Dollars will buy-in wartime. In peacetime it buys good roads. school build ings, and provides the funds for eleemosynary institutions, hospitals, etc. That's lot of useful money.
 One Billion Two Hundred Million Dollars is the amount of Federal revenue now produced ANNUALLY by taxation from the sale of alco- holfc beverages in the United States and it's territories CThis is entirely apart from the millions which states and local communities derive from the same source. and spend for maintenance of public works in war and in peace) NO OTHER SINGLE INDUSTRY CONTRIBUTES so MUCH, AND THE SUM TOTAL .IS SECOND ONLY TO THE MA TIONAL INCOME TAX.
 And one thought encourages an other. It wasn't very long ago when an attempt was made to legislate so-called morality" into our people. It didn't work, and it never will, among a free people.
 But, quite apart from the ''moral' question the revenue produced by our industry is being spent to in- sure the continuance and preserva- ton of our way of life. During the period of Prohibition which did not prohibit, untold millions went into the pockets of the bootleggers and their criminal henchmen. Let that never, NEVER happen again!

If you had One Billion Two Hun dred Million Dollars to spend for the necessities of modern warfare, it would buy-ALL of the follow ing:
 Food for a million soldiers for a year;
 oil to run a destroyer a million miles;
 A million rounds of ammunition for anti-tank guns;
 Ten thousand pursuit planes; Ten thousand reconnaissance cars;
 Ten thousand motor trailers;
 Ten thousand radio receiver sets; Five hundred bOmbers
 A million parachutes;
 A million bombardier kits;
 A million steel helmets;
 A hundred thousand fragmenta- tiOn bombs;
 A million tents;

was appointed when he was 80.
Vocational training has long
been stressed in the college and in

Launch Campaign Againt
South Anti-UniOn Frume-llp

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 18. -
(ANP)-A nationwide campaign
to protest the frameup of William
DeBerry, young Negro CIO organ
izer of the famous r. J. Reynolds
(Camel) plant in Winston-Salem,
N. c., has begun with a call to men,
bers and friends of organized labor
to lend their support. Charged with
assaulting a white woman, Louise
Johnson, called a company union
stooge, DeBerry was sentenced to
60 days on the road.
"This is not primarily a race is
sue, but an attempt to smash a sue
cessfully growing union by provok-
ing race riot and disruption" !"
stated Donald Henderson, president
of the United Cannery, Agricul-
tural, Packing and Allied Workers
of America (CIO), which organized
the Reynolds plant.
Coming after the long and sue
cessful fight Of UCAPAWA to or
ganize the Reynolds open shop, the
DeBerry frameup is labelled an
"obvious anti-CIO move by the

leaders of the discredited company
union. 1t follows year-long history
of efforts by the company to stir up
race prejudice in the community,
to organize public opinion against
the CIO and to stymie the organiza-
tion by use of court injunctions,"
Henderson said.
The Reynolds workers, recently
chartered as Local %, UCAPAW9-
CIO, are reported firmly convinced
of DeBerry's innocence. Last De-
cember they voted CIO into the
plant by 5000 to 5000. The first
collective bargaining agreement has
been negotiated, and the workers
are awaiting their War Labor board
decision on wage increases and
union security.
"This case is an insult, not only
to the labor movement, but a dis
grace to the city Of Winston-Salem
and the entire SOUTH" Henderson
said, urging immediate action to
stop the fameup and the subsequent
prejudiced decision Of the lower
courts.

NEGROES TO VOTE,
KIWANIANS TOLD

-(ANP)-South Carolina "Ne-
groes can vote and they are going
to vote, and there's nothing we
can do about it," Atty. Edward K.
Pritchard told members of the XII
wants club in an address here.
II believe in the old axiom" the
attorney continued, "if you can't
lick 'em. We cannot buck the other
AZ states. Although I'm not carry
ing the torch for the Negro race,
it is an integral part of this coun-
try" the speaker, prominent
white lawyer here, declared.
Declaring that both national par
ties now need and seek the vote
of colored citizens and criticizing
South Carolina for complaining
about participation Of Negroes in
the Democratic party and yet re-
fusing to quit the party, Mr..
Pritchard said: Zone thing the
south and South Carolina fail to
realize is that the day of white
elections is gone, never to be re-
vived again. AS long as we stick
to white elections" he continued,
''the nation does not want any Of
our leaders as national leaders"
Discussing South Carolina poll
tics, the speaker said: 1--WE are not
in favor Of anything. We are
against this thing and that thing.
We do not initiate constructive
legislation. All we insist upon is
that our representatives filibuster
and vote against the anti-lynching
bill and the anti-poll AK bill, and
although I personally do not be-
lieve in the anti-lynching bill, it
doesn't make that much difference
whether it passes or not"

50 SAILORS WHO REFUSED
TO HANDLE EXPLOSIVES
GO ON TRIAL

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 49,
(ANP)-Fifty Negro sailors who
refused to handle dangerous ex-
plosives are on trial before mill
tory court on Yerba Buena island
here. The men are said to have re-
fused to work with the ammunition
following the Port Chicago NUM-
tions explosion several weeks ago
when more than 300 lives were lost.
81 don't refuse to work, but I'm
afraid of ammunition" some of the
men are reported to have said when
commanded to work.
Comdr. Joseph R. Tobin, COM
manding officer of the naval bar
racks on Mare island, and the first
witness, testified that on Aug. 9
when he received word of the re-
fusal of the enlisted men to work,
Il personally ordered the men to go
to work, and when they refused I
advised them that no one is able,
myself as an officer, my superior,
or any enlisted man, to refuse to
obey a lawful order"
Tobin stated that only those who
refused to return to work were held.
It is expected that the trial Of
the so men will last a week. Counsel
from the judge advocates office has
been assigned to every 10 defend
ants.
1t. Comdr. Falthan Watson, SEN
ior judge advocate of the 18th navel
district staff headquarters, is re-
ported to have termed this the first
time in naval court history that so
men have been tried at one time.
