ST. LOUIS, Oct. TT Gene eThe
Sphinx Moore, the ST. Louis Browns
outfielder, ever speaks more than
three words at a time (his record at

Giuliani for q share in the World
Series currency.

ager Luke Sewell might thank
Giuliani for the extra swag that
goes to the winner of baseball's big
gest show.
1t was Giuliani who told Clark
Grifith, owner Of the Washington
Senators, last spring that he didn't
appreciate being traded from a
likely pennant winner to a sure
loser. He would quit baseball, Giuli-
ami averred, rather than play with
the lowly Browns.
The "Old Fox" had to send the
Browns another ball player in lieu
of the recalcitrant receiver who had
been swapped for Rick Ferrell, an
other backstop. Probably because
Moore was a seasoned traveller, well
equipped to stand the rigors OF
wartime travel, Griffith sent the 35-
year-old outfielder to the Missouri
city and his 18th stop along organ
lied baseball's trail.
Inaugurates Three Rallies.
Today Moore is swatting the
World Series ball at 1888 rate and
has been the front man in three of
the four Browns rallies in the first
three games of the all-St. Louis
fracas.
In the first game he pasted q
fourth-inning single to right field
to give McQuinn the range. When
the first baseman parked his game
winning round-tripper over the pa
vilion, Moore trotted around the
bases, smiled shyly and said nothing
as his teammates congratulated him
In the second game he started
the seventh-inning attack that tied
the score at 2-all. The Cards, who
once employed Moore, went on to
win, 80, but yesterday the silent
man got even with them.
Waiting until two were out, Moore
whipped a single down the right
field foul line in the third inning
and scored the tying run on Nc
Quinn's hit to left field. When the
inning was over the Browns had
four runs and the ball game.

When Is A Liberal Liberal?
(From The LOuisian Weekly

The pathetic attempt some sincere individuals make
at being liberal and concerned with the down rodden Ne
groS plight in the morally and economically bankrupt
South show that they ptifuly ignorant of the fact
that the Negro human being and expects be treated
in this great land of democracy which breaches
farplay, equality and justice for everyone but finds it
difficult to practice.
These almost hopeless souls neither have CUTS or
wisdom that the American principle freedom and
equality which tell the whole world practice (but
DON'T must be actually practced before the universe finds
out that the u S. is bigger liar than Hitler TOTO There
is sorrer figure than who tries to convince people
of their place by repeating half truths, nsdous propo
ganda and hearsay concerning them indication that
said person well informed 1t known fact that if such
person ndusrialist, bank president big bust
ness executive that neither of them would conduct their
businesses on hearSay, propaganda and half truths.
Recently one of the liberal ntentioned persons had the
occasion to express letter of his feelings about
Negroes The classic the Negro be happy
with less and that "a Negro dsarm ignorant brutal
white with smile alone People people in spite
of false standards and prescribed by sincere but
poorly guided liberals Why should anyone feel that be-
cahse many instances Negro is forced to smile that he
injustice? Why should anyone feel that Negro happier
is happp and does not feel the sting of discrimination and
than anyone else without the bare necessities of life
If the so inclined liberals would investigate, seek
knowledge on the Negro thew would find out that we are
human beings despite the fact that various coors
from black to white that when he have the opportunity to
go to school can learn much the average
white; that when brought up in healthy environ
ment and have good family background courte
well hammered and respectable anyone else raised
under the conditions; and that would have the
respect and obedience for law and order if it pro-
tected and gave justire nstead of bruazng and
dishng out dual system of justice does for the
whites.
These so called liberals just well know it that
Negroes don't feel as if they are some kind of special
creature that has to be treated in particular way He
is entitled to the rights privileges and duties other
American is; he wants the freedom and equality the
United State loudly tells the world about but fails to
practice right here at home He feels terribly sorry for
the misguided liberal that dosent know this.

GIFT REST CURES
The idea of the redistribution
center originated with the Army
Air Forces. 1t established centers
for airmen who had served GER
tain tours of combat duty. These
men are brought back and given
rest cures In the best type of en-
vironment, usually In resort cen +.
ters. They are allowed to have
their wives with them. and every
thing is ION the house.
The Army Service Tbrces and
the Army Ground Forces. in which
branches, particularly the former,
are most Of the half-million Ne
froes oversees, adopted the idea
for their personnel-ther white
personnel.
Such high Standards have been
set nor these centerS that the
Army is finding 1t difficult to
figure out some way to give Its
Negro soldiers SEPARATE but
EQUAL accommodations.
It is faced, too, with the dilem-
ma that the Air Forces-which
usually on the other end of the
deal-makeS 40 difference be-
tween its white an Negro per-
sonnet. They all use the same re-
d&stribrtiVl centers, without Sc.
gregation Or discrimination.
Admission that the 49 hotels
are set up as lily white" was
made by the Acting Secretary of
War when he gave the prepared
statement that plans are under
v'ay' for Negroes. He admitted
he was not aware that the Air
Forces do not segregate in their
redistribution centers, after which
the new ones are supposedly model
ed
Surrounded by the Army order
against segregation and exclusion,
the impossibility of finding ac-
co1nmodations for the Exclusive
use of Negroes equal to those in
the 40 selected resort hotels, and
the absurd claim of resort hotel
operators that if Negroes are
brought into their previously re-
stricted white hostelries they will
be valueless when returned to
civilian use-the Army doesn't
know which way to turn.
