are common in this section, and generally passed off

had preferred charges to protect prices in the community
in cooperation with OPA felt redress would be
gained for himself it would have been different but the
complainant in this action conferred around motive
and that to avenge himself and the only he
considered for imaginary wrong to put the white
folks that Negro" But in all cases. the verdict after
the argument was in favor of the defendant.
The mentioning of this is to defend in
any the defendant neither will essay to say
that the defendants prices are always in keeping with
OPA, for if they are will say he is among millions
for damn nearly every merchant Ninth Street, If not
in the city is violating the rules of OPA in form or
another for there very few who able to employ
$4,000 year counsel to interpret the rules and regua-

complainant foster grudge against this business whose
manager is employing people than any other Negro
business in the city, and who has contributed to the
upkeep of the community than any other five business
This has contributed to everything from erad-

three soldiers and picket picketng job on our main

can Federation of Labor for what it is doing.
When we first read that wondered if MIR. Williams
was conscious and concluded that if he he wasn't
cognzan just what the American Federation of Labor is
doing
We wondered whether Mr.. Williams knew just how
damaging it to the safety Of America and Americans,
some 100000 man-days that lost account Of
ganzed labor No, Mr. Williams could not know, for it
takes true American to estimate the damage of his
curity account of fooshness rugged up by
power crazed damn fool We not in position at this
time to know just the extent of the riff between the sol
ders and the what not who carried the picket sgn when
he should have been carrying doing something that
would relieve the situation that facing due to the
