In most eloquent Introductory
remarks, Arthur Williams, for
mer director of the Ruggles St.
U.S.O. Center, who was master
of ceremonies, welcomed the
guests in behalf of Miss Black,
whom he eXtolled as a dynamic
leader in the community and
successful organizer. He also
commended Mrs. Lamb for the
many years she has worked for
the welfare Of children, in the
church and in the homes. He al
so stated that the presence of
many candidates for public Of
flee gave unusual opportunity to
acquaint them with what the
voters wanted of them in the
way of better housing, better
schools and better general con-
ditionS.
After the delicious chicken
dinner the following speakers
were presented: Col. Hughes,
representing Gov. Saltonstall;

Commander I. Segal, represent

especially rouSing cheers. Both
made interesting remarks.
Miss Black, thanked her as
sistantS for the fine success of
the occasion delivered a fGrceful
for the fine success of the oc-
caSion and delivered a forceful
address giving some sound adj
vice on how candidates could be
elected. Though her associates
had endorsed Teixeira, she said,
if he failed of nomination, they
would work for the election

Democracy In Action
Some people call Pasadena,
California the "City of Roses"
but I wonder if they have visited
Nyack in Rockland County, New
York However it is not all a
bed Of roses in Rockland terri
tory with the Hillburn school
scandal" still in full swing.
Rockland has some citizens who
are determined to do something
about the matter. Nyack has
organized a branch Of the N. A.
A. c. P. and at a recent meeting
it was most encouraging to see
the racial groups working to-
gether for the cause of democ-
racy. The second trip to that
county this month brought an
other demonstration of common
decency. An old-fashioned pic
mic called by the picnickerS a
strawberry festival" took place
on the lawn of one of Broad
ways noted actors. Three hun
dred people of all races gathered
to eat barbecue, consume potato
salad and dine on delicious
shortcake made from the berries
grown on the place. Camp
Shanks sent a band. Burl Ives
made good use Of his guitar. A
scene from the play, Decision"
was enacted by members OF
"Stage of Action" Here was a
demonstration of human beings
living in a normal way without
fanfare or artificiality, Children,
black and white, rolled on the
ground. Adults Invested them
selves of unnecessary clothing
and talk was free and informal.
When my hosts drove me back
to New York, the conclusion was
that Rockland, by that method,
can really become a "bed OF
roses"

Wendell Winkie

WCItUStb w GthtS
NEW YORK-Too much praise
can not be laviShed on the great
contribution Wendell L. Willkie
is making towards the fulfill
ment of the democratic ideal in
our national life. A few weeks
ago saw this stalwart Ameri-
can contribute five thousand
dollars to the defense fund of
the N.A.A.C.P. while attending
the testimonial dinner in honor
of Walter White. During the
past week, he has given the ma
ton a yardStick to measure the
degree of democracy that this
country will accept. 1t is not on
ly a platform for the Republi-
can party but declaration in
keeping with all tl4at Is honest
and just in human relations.
Progressive in thought and &C
ton, Mr.. Willkie steps to the
front as the embodiment of the
possibilities to which a truly
great American may attain.
Such men can never become
presidents. They destroy every
opportunity for achieving politi-
cal fame but at the same time
they arrive at a stage Of mar
tyrdom which far surpasses all
temporary prestige and evanes-
cent glory.
Publishers Convention
Over the past weekend. COL
ored publishers and newspaper
men gathered in New York for
their annual convention. In the
last meeting of the Board Of
Managers Of the Harlem Y.M.C.
A. before adjourning for the
the summer, the dean Of colored
publishers, J. E. Mitchell of the
st. Louis Argus, dined with us.
The Board, out of appreciation
OF the gallant fight these jour
nalists have waged in behalf of
our race adopted a resolution of
thanks to them. Out of their de-
liberationS came stronger de-
termination to continue the
fight for full indignation of all
people in our national life. The
colored press has come of age.
1t can stand on its own feet and
champion the cause of the OPP
pressed. You, gentle reader, can
aid them in maintaining such a
position by increasing their cir
culation. A subscription to sew
eral will prove your interest.
Send your old copies to white
people, preferably enemies of
progress. Start with the Con-
gressional halls in Washington
and don't omit Georgia, Ala
bama, Mississippi, Texas, the
Carolinas and kindred areas.
