FORD PLANT IS NOW
OUT ON A BIG STRIKE

Detroit strike causing idle
ness for more than 5000 war
workers halted production in the
Ford Motor Company's Highland
Park plant this week.
Approximately $500 machine
operators engaged in production
of gears for aircraft engines left
their jobs and later picket line
turned back $3.50 afternoon shift
workers.

and Local 400 of the United Auto

Gated confusion over the issues.
A Ford Company statement
said nobody has been able to
tell the company why the men
are striking"
The walkout was said by a
spokesman for Local 400 to have
resulted partly from a strike
Thursday by maintenance tool
grinders and party from the COM
pany's refusal to recommend
merit increases of five cents an
hour for workers on the engine

BRUSH headquarters IN france
twenty-five German generals
and one admiral have been killed,
wounded, captured, replaced or
have just disappeared in Western
France since D-Day, June 6, it
was announced this week.
Since generals do not ordinarily
take a position on or very near
the battleline, this unusual toll
was seen as an indication both of
the speed and the power of the
Allied attack, and was a hint that
Hitler was making it uncomfor-
table for leaders who back-pedal-
led for reasons of personal safety.
The list, as read out by a staff
officer, follows:

NEGRO PROBLEM CALLED
WHITE MANS PROBLEM"

NEW YORK, Dec. 16 (ANP)-
The Negro problem was called the
white mans problem" during the
two-day monthly meeting of the
American Friends Service commit
tee of Philadelphia and can be
solved only by a spontaneous atti-
tude of brotherhood, declared Hen
ry j. Cadbury, chairman of the or
ganization.
The committee, which usually
meets in Philadelphia but holds one
annual meeting here, opened it's
conclave with an afternoon session
on racial problems. Speakers, be-
sides DR.. Cadbury, included the
Rev. John Dillingham;, pastor of
the Faith Presbyterian Church of
Germantown, Philadelphia, and
Jobu Yasumura, japanese resettle-
ment worker of the American Bap-
tist Home Mission society, New
York.
"Our competitive economic sys-
tenn engenders race discrimina-
tion," Dillingham; remarked, point
ing out that white world restric-
tions make the Negro abnormally
race-conscious, hamper his crea-
tive expression-with the excep-
tons Of such artists as Marian
Anderson and Paul Robeson-and
develop a spirit of deceit and hy-
pocrisy.

The removal of 10000 japanese

Coming Up To Christmas
By Jesse Nimmons

Thousands and thousands of peo-
pie in all walks of life are busying
themselves. Almost breathless with
their Christmas shopping. Won
der if we have forgotten what
Christmas really means.
We are in the midst of war and
the end is not yet in sight-then |
am wondering if we are fighting
for the spirit of a real Christmas,
or do we understand. Why? He was
born that all human beings might
live and share the same right and
sunshine of His blessing.
Man was created with the fac
ulty of worship and mans Creator
has the first and sole claim to that
worship. Men must have the truth
in order to worship Him in the
right and acceptable way. For this
reason the Creator has sent forth
the Truth to free the people from
the bonds of ignorance, supersti-
ton and fear that they may walk
in the path of light and life.
Where the people are by their
rulers denied access to the Truth,
the nation or nations forgets God.
The declaration of the Freedom of
Speech and Worship were uttered
from God. to Moses in Mount
Sinai. ION earth for all men good
will"
Jesus taught his followers to
pray: "Thy kingdom come, Thy
will be done, in earth as it is in
heaven" Why work against Him.
Birth and his death were for all
men to become free We cannot
serve Him and deny freedom to
others. The Freedom of Speech to
declare the Truth cannot be sepa-
rated from the freedom to worship
God. Mans eternal life and future
happiness are wholly dependent
upon God and his relationship with
man is to see that all men are free.
This is the true meaning of Christ
mas, let Us accept Christmas and
end all wars.
