STOP GROUSING.
By Ruth TAYLOR

Those who confident when Italy was invaded,
that the all but the shouting have had rude
awakening We still have long way to go. The war is
yet won will it be until the final and complete
surrender
We not underestimate the enemy his strength
And we not overlook the factwhch proven for
us at Stalngradthat the with his back to the wall
is the one who fights the hardest.
They still off the horse that finishes first The
war isn't yet and is not the time to waste jockey
ing for position We can't afford to frtter away
on people who won't cooperate We've all got to fight
and work and sacrifice together.
You know what | There is a bad tendency to-
day to ubble the cost of and to attribute to bad
management any lack which touches Few people are
willing give up their privileges They feel that the sac
rces should made entirely by the other fellow and
hev waste their time and clutter up other peoples work
bv their complaining We're all guilty in respects
But while we qubling let consider what would
be the enemies in the saddle They do not
rule by ballo-they occupy by force They do not levy
taxes-they appropriate all possessions They do not de-
bate argue persuade people cooperatehey terrorze
torture and persecute all those who disagree with them
They respect the rights of Others They negae
old privileges and deny the rights of the individual
to his thoughts They do not respect the religious
beliefs of any, but build gods in their likeness before
whom they make their slaves bow down and worship.
How resent the little have to give up, when
we consider what would have lost? is time to stop
complaining and get into the greatest show of all times II
we the enemy prevented from stringing this war
along stalemate If we're going to be it, let's be with
it. For don't then all privileges will go, and we'll be
letting the enemy win the at home while our soldiers
are licking him abroad.

florists is now two gallons weekly
in all parts of the country. On the
Pacific Coast, the "B" ration has
been cut from ago to 400 miles a
month.
Civilian Food Supply Favorable
The civilian food supply for the
next few months appears to be more
abundant than for the same period
last year, the Department of Agri-
culture reports. Potatoes and cab
bage head the list of really abund-
ant foods over most of the coun-
try. Other products include, car
rots, beets, spinach, peanut but
ter, shell eggs, grapefruit and
small oranges, frozen baked beans,
citrus marmalade, lard, canned
green and waxed beans, frozen
vegetables, and canaed peas and
tomatoes.
More Income Tax Information
While the majority of the ma
tons so million taxpayers will
find their 1914 federal income tax
taken care of through withholding
by their employers, an estimated Is
million will be required to file de-
clarations of their estimated 1914
tax by April 15 Declaration forms
are being mailed by the Bureau of
Internal Revenue to all persons
who filed declarations last fall. The
first quarterly payment of esti-
mated tax shown to be due on the
declaration should be made at the
time the declaration is filed, the
other payments to be made on or
before June Is, September Is, and
December Is. Farmers who re-
ceive more than 80 percent of their
income from farming, may postpone
filing their declarations until De-
cember Is. However, if they wait
until December they must pay all
of their estimated tax at that time.
Evacuees On Leave
More than $4,000 of the 10000
people of Japanese ancestry eva
cuated to relocation centers from
the West Coast two years ago have
been granted indefinite leave to
establish homes outside the CEN
tiers, the War Relocation Authority
announced. Between 1000 and g.
900 others are on seasonal leave,
mainly as farm workers. Fully
two-thirds of the evacuees on leave
were born in America, and Y per

Our Friends
BY Thomas E. Porter

Again this week, in keeping with
our policy to present to our read
ers some individual or group who
is doing something to encourage
better race relationship, we offer to
you Mr.. w. B. GIBSON, Manager of
the Corr Williams Tobacco Com
pahy, located on N. Mill Street,
Jackson, a man who has done much
toward contributing to the better
ment of not only his Negro en-
ployees but to Negroes. in general
thru their various churches and
other organizations.
A recent interview revealed the
fact that Mr.. Gibson now has in
his employ several Negroes who
have worked for him over a period
of years-men who without hesita-
ton testifies to his fine spirit of
giving to his employees the best,
regardless to race or color.
There are few charitable organi-
cations that have gone to Mr.. Glib
son with worthwhile program and
been refused help. Each year he
has contributed generously to the
annual Picnic Fund of this paper.
fund that provides a days en-
tertainment with refreshments for
hundreds of Negro children of the
city, this affair being sponsored by
this paper.
What Mr.. Gibson is doing is only
a sample of what hundreds of
other good white friends are doing
and we feel that if more attention
is paid to these things and proper
appreciation given those who are
thus contributing to our group, we
will be going a long way toward
lettering our condition.

IFBI Agent Says
White Girls Met
Negroes in Club

Fate of Edward B. Hayes, AZ,
of 40 Highland Av. NJ, charged
with three counts of white
slavery, was scheduled to be in
the hands of E federal court jury
today after final arguments by
the government and defense
attorneys.
After the defense rested its
case, an FBI agent was called by
the government to describe
scenes around the Sportsmen's
club, 723 Olson Blvd, at 2::30 and
3 a. m. whel white girls and
Negro men and women were
observed coming and going to
the place.
The FBI agent said that at
the time the place was under
observation, the government was
looking for another man in con.
nection with white slavery
charges. The northside resort
entered the testimony in the
case because the 10. ear.old
white girl involved said that she
haid been beaten while in the
place, and her earnings had been
exacted from her there.
Robert johnson, doorman and
fire tender at the club, was one
of the last witnesses called, be-
fore the final arguments.

Ohio Man Is
New Mpls. Urban
League Secretary

The new executive secretary of
the Minneapolis Urban League is
James Tapley Wardlaw, age "a, of
Massilon, Ohio.
Wardlaw's appointment was con-
firmed Wednesday by the Leagues
executive board. He will take the
post vacated by Chas. w. Washing
ton, now industrial secretary of the
Pittsburgh Urban League.
Wardlaw will assume the Mime
apolis secretaryship May 1. He
has been executive secretary of the
Massilon Urban League eight
years. Married and with one child,
Wardlaw has made an excellent
record in the Ohio industrial city
whose Negro population is about
5000.
A native of Atlanta, Ca, Ward
law was graduated from Morehouse
Academy, received his ABB. from
Morehouse College and his Masters
Degree from Atlanta University,
all of Atlanta. He also has at
tended the VILLA m Mckinley
School of Law at Canton, Ohio.
Wardlaw was recommended to
the Urban League board by its per-
sonnet committee which is COM
posed of DR.. Raymond Bragg,
Judge Edward Waite, DR.. Homer
Schmidt and Cecil E. Newman. The
committee had previously inter-
viewed and considered the applica-
tions of several candidates.
On Tuesday, Thomas Vennum,
prominent Minneapolis attorney
and president of the Mill City Ur-
ban League, praised the board for
its selection. He said: 'Mr. Ward
laws educational qualifications and
his fine record in Massilon cause US
to believe that his choice is happy
one. We feel certain that he will
be great asset to the League pro-
gram in Minneapolis. The many
problems which face US on the in
terracial front will find the Urban
League, as always, on the job doing
the best it can"
