topics ranging from Urban League
technique and mythology, t o war and
postwar employment and racial con-

Workshop Sessions which are to be a
feature of the Conference.
President Roosevelt said in com,

National Urban League should seek
to impress upon our Nation the fact
that Negro and white Americans

drawn to the work of the Conferences
a result of a series of articles III

the development of a more realistic
of wartime race relations,
which will give the Negro a greater
and more respected place in war in

On blood-soaked soil where the

Stand their crosses row by row.
When our boys come home this

Safe from the bloody fighting line
May the memories of this strife
Be banished forever from their
life.
A soft peace for the German race
Or the treacherOus Jap to save face
Is one mistake we should not make
For our future generations sake.

No more blood. sweat and tears
Can ever he caused by the super

Who would have the world about

To all of you wherever you be
In air. on land or on the sea
We feel what you are going through
Our very best at home we'll do.
To keep the home fires burning
bright
Through the long and silent night
So when you return once more
Your homes and family to adore.
We cannot share your burdens

But here at home we'll do our share
To do the very best we can
In honor to a fighting man.
