Tt is quite evident that the
recent smear campaign against
the colored population of the
Bedford Stuyvesant section has
affected the community in more
than one way. Even the taxicabs
travelling through the neighbor-
hood will not stop for colored
passengers there no matter how
urgent the cause for a fare may
be. One very cold day last week
your Highlighter noticed col
ored lady standing on the cor
ner of Sumner ave. and HalSey
st. in thi ssection accompanied
by three small children, one an
infant, which she carried in her
arms. AS she stood ehere, obvi-
ously waiting for the Sumner
Sackett trolley, which seems to
run only now and then, she tried
to hail the passing cabs. The
two older children pranced
about in an effort to keep warm
while the infant was not re-
straining its urge to wall out
loud. Finally an empty cab
stopped on the same corner for
a red light. The lady called to
attract the attention of the
driver, but he did not look her
way, obviously ignoring her.
Desperately she led the children
toward the cab, but as she
neared it the light changed and
the driver sped off, leaving her
standing in the middle of the
street with three half frozen
children. Fortunately, a lady
motorist came along and offered
them a lift which they accepted
gratefully. Although the melting
report on conditions in this Sec
ton has been proven unjustifed,
the damage has been done and
the scar will remain for a long
time.

robustness despite his hard tussle

from those who sharply differ with
him politically than from his
staunchest supporters. He is that
kind of mana man whose great
ness cuts across party lines and
wins the warm respect, even the af-

some Britishers he appears to be
too conservative, to others too lib
eral, to another group too bold, and
to yet others too much a Kipling-

thing else, to all of them, he per-

connects all the railways mentioned.
This German salient is now imperiled
from the north by Russian forces uress-
ing south and southeast from Lenin-
grad, and from the south by the fall of
Novgorod and the cutting of the Novgo-
rod-Leningrad railway. The fall of
Novgorod leaves the Germans only one
route OF supply or retreat, the belt line
railway above mentioned, which is
closely threatened by the Russians and
already may be cut. Once more, a very
considerable force of German troops
seems to be trapped, or about to be
trapped and though we have had a
good many disappointments in the past,
resulting from Russian tactical inability
to exploit strategical opportunities, 1t
must be admitted that in this instance
the Russian chances for a real success
appear unusually bright.
This is because the vital beltline rail-
way is threatened, not only by the out
ward pressure of the Leningrad garri-
son, but also by southwark thrust from
Oranienbaum, on the coast west of
Leningrad. which seems to be gaining
ground. The ground will be frozen now,
so that the marshes and lakes of the
region will not impede Russian move
ment. It would seem that the Germans
either must get out of their salient, and
away from the vicinity of the east and
southeast main lines and the two sub
sidiary lines, or suffer the loss of the
forces involved
But even If the Germans do get out
of the salient without heavy loss, the
next step in the process is also very
