Harmony Among GIs and
'Jodies'

The use of the misnomer 'Jodie'' is GER
tainy one example of tactlessness on the part
of TAAF soldiers. Whether this punning is
done in jest or with serious intent, it must be
stopped Immediately. Many GIs seem resent
full Of their brethren in civilian attire But in
the victory scheme of things there can be no
place for this petty ill-feeling5 There should
and must be close, harmonious union of ef-
forts and thought among soldiers and civilian
workers The toll that civilian workers have
contributed to the war effort is comparable
in many ways to the work that soldiers at the
front are measuring out the yardstick
of victory. Every drop of sweat that civilian
workers shed is an infnitesimal but significant
contribution to world freedom. Think sol
dier! Think of the tremendous job of produc-
ton and supply that is now being accomplished
throughout this nation. Our home production
front has surpassed the cumulative efforts of
the rest of the world
1t is true that we in uniform have given up
our accustomed way of living. 1t is also true,
however. that civilian workers have made many
sacrifices. They are suffering countless incon-
veniences, and in many cases endure more
constraint that we. Remember then when you
hear the good news about successes abroad
that team made them possible; team COM
posed of soldiers and civilians. If we are to
ever reach the end of the 3-foot mark and
vctory-we must treat the civilian as fellow
teammate and blend his efforts with ours to-
ward the common good. 1t is the only way,
soldier. 1t is the only way that the dream of
victory and peace. at home and abroad, can
be made reality.

EDITORIAL
On Speaking q Common
Language

Recently, | was passenger one of the
crowded trains so common now in wartime
travel Entering one of the least crowded
coaches, i found seat apparently unoccupied.
As the lady sitting next to it had some of her
personal articles spread upon it, asked her If
the seat were taken My query was rewarded
by quizzical stare. Finally, as stood there,
she removed the articles and | was able to sit
down.
For several hours | sat silently reading.
When vendor passed through the car the
lady passed handful of coins to him, and
unconsciously speaking in her own tongue,
Spanish, told the vendor she wanted an orange.
he vendor, not understanding Spanish,
thought the woman wanted as much fruit as
the coins would buy, and proceeded to give
her great number. Understanding by now
that she neither spoke English nor knew Amer
lean money, | told the seller just what she
wanted.
With the broadest Of smiles the lady turned
to me and said: listed liable espanol"
replied that in my poor way, did. Soon we
were engrossed in one of the most interesting
conversations | have ever held, in my
own tongue The conversation lasted until the
end of the journey. Upon leaving the train,
the lady gave me her card which showed that
she is optometrist in Of the large Mexi-
cities She invited me to visit her whens
ever opportunity permitted.
The incident reminds me that the most ap-
parent barrier to making friends of other peo-s
pies is language. If this lady had not needed
something Id have gone thousand miles on
the same journey never learning what a friendly
and intelligent person she is How often such
incidents happen. People find themselves
among other people, not their own, and keep
within their own little sphere in silence. be-
cause they think others do not understand their
language or them.
Language, spoken, written, or imaginary.
prevents many friendships and consequently
good neighbors. Why not assume that we are
understood by other peoples even though our
spoken idioms are not the same2 IF we do, we
will find that when we need something there
is always someone to translate for us.

Whether it's in Arkansas or

thought that at best Negro farm
ers could only grow enough food
to meet their own home needs, but
recent reports reaching the U. s.
Department of Agriculture show
that thousands of Negro farmers,
anxious to help the war effort, are
growing considerably more than
enough to meet their home needs.
For example, in Arkansas
Negro farm families marketed
nearly 100000 worth of milk,
vegetables, beef, eggs, chickens,
hogs and miscellaneous products.
And in Florida Negro farmers
raised $4,000 chickens, produced
375, 900 eggs, and sold 1872, 000
worth of produce. With the ex-

and other food crops, the farmers

picking individual leaves. These
young stem tips and leaves may be

vegetable dish will be placed
before you.
1t will look something like
spinach If the leaves are served, or
like asparagus if the stalks are
featured -- but 1t will not taste like
either spinach or asparagus. 1t will
have flavor all its own a new
favor delightful flavor, a sur.
prising flavor
This new vegetable Is Tampala.
For centuries IT has been an i'm
portant food IN India and China.
A few years ago a missionary pre-.
sented seeds to David Burpee Of
Philadelphia, man who has de-
voted his life to developing new
and better vegetables. The seeds
were planted-all over the country.
The leaves and stalks were tested
IN dozens Of diet kitchens. Tam.
pala proved It was an American
green eager to take the place Of the
healthful but often despised
spinach.
This year seeds are obtainable.

In a few weeks when the first pick

will soon be on the market. but the
