to increase the miscegenation of
the Negro and white races al

the South by many of the legis-

The resolution stated further:

denounce the intentions, utter
aces, and actions of any person
or persons and of all organiza-
lions seeking the amalgamation
of the white and Negro races by
a commingling of the races upon
any basis of equality, as being
destructive of the identity and

1--WE reaffirm our belief in and
our allegiance to established

pledge our lives and sacred honor
to maintaining it.

concerned we firmly and une-
quivocally demand that hence

F. Rennie, general secretary, de-
clared. "The membership fees for

penses for club activities, classes,
recreation and use of equipment.
The financial principle on Y. fees
are based is similar to that used
by most colleges and universities.
Charges are made according to
the persons ability to pay. with
the deficit paid by private con-
tributions or taxes" Our adult

East Madison and other branches
are self-supporting.
At the East Madison Y, total
of 272 boys were enrolled in 9
clubs and group activities last

many more not enrolled but who

The blacks, one party to chat
tey slavery. have already paid in
sweat and sorrow for whatever
il has produced. 1t is not think
able that whites, the other group,
will go scot-free for their share
in that hellish system. There
has been a Civil War, but essen
TALLY it was over the right of
states to withdraw at their own
pleasure from the union. AS
surely as God lives, and He deals
justly with men, whites too must
pay for the moral values de-
stroyed by that system.
We are no prophet, and can
be wrong. But the difficulties
we are having with our Good
Neighbor" plan and the insis-
tence here that war or no war,
the color line in the United
States shall stand, indicate that
fate is beginning to collect.
We have a world war on the
heels of a smaller one which
then seemed the ultimate in de-
struction. In this one, more clear
ly than the last the basic cause
is known to be the inequalities
between men. Smart Americans
set out to make friendliness with
the neighbors the beginning of
system which when developed
world wide means peace. But
there are others, foolish enough
to think they are like the Jap
anese emperor.
When time sums up the deb
bits and credits of chattel slavery
in the United States, one loss
will be the cost of assumption of
superiority by American whites.
They laugh when the japanese
say their emperor is heaven
born, but see nothing amiss in
claiming superiority for their
entire race. not as a reward of
merit, but coincident with birth
for all of them, including the
morons and the criminals.
This sltuatio would be funny

whites are too self-eentered to
realize how they look in others

polite to tell them. But events
tell. An American soprano, in

known her prejudice against Ne

She was given a small audience

American Lives to Pay For Hate

With Argentina reluctant from
the start and Bolivia and Chile
now sympathizing with her,
President Rooseyelts &c o o d
Neighbor" policy. so vital TO the
war now and useful in the peace
afterward, is being hampered.
By rason of likeness and inter
est, our hemisphere should get
together easily, especially since
the United States has prevented
European aggression over here
ever since the day of President
Monroe. We provide lend-lease
war materiel, yet some of the
Latin republics prefer the Ger
mans to us.
So much is at stake for the
world that whatever this is that
interferes with our plans for vic
tory becomes of tremendous i'm
portance. The situation calls for
Determination to find before
the evil spreads what deeds
of omission or commission make
Argentina, Bolivia and Chile act
as they do.
Why Germans are preferred
to us of the United States does
not lie in the plan or the way
the President has pushed it. 1t
is a grand concept, logical and
equitable. Yet our neighbors
do not believe we act with good
faith. Frankness compels us to
admit they have reasons for their
doubts. Our government has
been honest but the unofficial
American has nullified its efforts
by being a strutting, braggadoci-
Gus egotist, known for making
little of other people.
The ebb and flow of human
affairs has caused all peoples
to be sometimes up and some
times down. No group has ground
for a "big I and little you" at
titude. But citizens of the Uni
ted States do exactly that. So
when we make overtures of
friendship, our governments in
tentions are thought to be of a
piece with the fool Americans
who call Mexicans "greasers."
We know good manners. We
know we should do in Rome as
the Romans do" Instead, when
abroad, we insist upon our
American ways and belittle the
ways of the people there. We
forgt that he who would have
friends must be friendly.

Americans despise num1iity
and make a pretense to superb
ority for which neither sense
nor science gives a basis. a car
ry-oyer from the time when it
served to differentiate the slave

when we fight for our lives we
find ourselves hobbled by that
old habit. The Germans. in spite
of Hitler, make friends in the
Latin republics because they see
the others point of view. We
fail to gain allies because, like

BY MARGARET NOVEL;,

Most homeoWnerS, for the last
year, have been reading, thinking
and talking of postwar building. We
have bought War Bonds, made only
necessary repairs to our property
and worked out extensive plans Tor
that great day when the market
opens for buying and building.
Architects, Government housing
agencies and all the magazines have
gone on record with a plan for build
ing after the war which has left
nary a stone unturned as far as
facts, figures and new departures
are concerned. All Of this informa-
ton has been available to each Of
us. Now, all tk t is necessary is for
us to interpret this news according
to our individual needs.
Most of us have learned great
deal this last year about what we
wish our homes to mean. We have
found 1t necessary to simplify our
way of living, and many a woman
has learned, the hard way, what it
takes to keep a house running sue
cessfully. You have undoubtedly
said, and heard your friends say
Never again will I endure a house
with fight of STAIRS or when
this Is over. I want house that will
cut my housekeeping in half"
Changes Certain.
Each family will have to use all
the information available, simmer
it down according to their own way
Of life, set against this their indi-
vidual likes and dislikes, to evolve a
postwar home.
If our cities and towns had been
leveled by bombs there is little doubt
that we would build new COM
munities quite different from the
ones we have grown up with. Those
of us who will have a substantial
amount of cash saved quite possibly
will build an entirely new type Of
house with many startling new i'm
provements. But history and arche-
ology have both proved that ideas
about living do not change over
night.
We carry over from one generation
to the next the ideas Of comfort
