Cross its fabulous demand that Ne
gro blood be segregated in the
blood banks and given only to Ne
groes. American fathers and moth
ers have said, and said with such in
sistence as to make their point, that
they would rather their wounded
sons should die than that they
should receive Negro blood into
their veins.
In the face of such intense feel
ing, the weapons against prejudice
seem weak. But whatever ones can
be found must be used until the
victory over this most pathetic and
childish of fears has been gained.

therefore, that when Stain
came into power he should
open the churches and restore
freedom of worship.
Who but John E. Rankin, South
ern Methodist, of Tupelo, Missis-
sippi, would have thought of hail
ing Joe Stain as Defender of the
Faith? And who else would have
forgotten his previous mouthings
about the "Communist-Jewish
world plot" to salaam thus before
the car of all the Communists and
all the Russians.
But then, consistency has never
exactly ridden "Silent" John or any
other of his stripe when there has
been a human tympanum within
range. John Rankin came up to
Congress in 1920 after four years
as prosecuting attorney in his home
town of Tupelo, a metropolis of
$4,000 people in the hill country of
northeastern Mississippi. His peo-
pie were slave owners and he was
reared among ex-slaves, "who
treated me with more respect than
they would any of those flannel
reformers."

Ans: You tasted the bitter fruits

found no satisfaction. Possibly the
young girl thrilled you and brought
you untold happiness for awhile
but you soon realized that some
thing was lacking. The feeling you
have for your wife is something en-
tirely different, deeper and finer
than the precariOus thrills you ex-

young girl. Remain alOOf from
each until your mind is entirely

you find that it is your wife who

Hoover 10 Take Part
In COP Campaign
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, June 27.-Arriving to
address the Republican convention,
Herbert Hoover said today he would
participate vigorously in the election
campaign.
Il am going to stay in this fight
until 1 die" the only living former
President told newspapermen as he
stepped from his train. THE fight
is for everything that is precious
to the American people"
Mr.. Hoover would not say whether
he expected to "barnstorm" for the
Republican ticket, but left no doubt
that he would contribute all his en-
ergies to the Republican campaign.
The prospects for a Republican
victory this fall are good" he said.
Asked about Wendell WILKES criti-
cism of the foreign affairs plank
preliminary draft for the platform,
the former President commented
that the platform, so far as I have
seen, is in the right direction. That
includes the foreign plank"
Mr.. Hoover appeared in excellent

CHICAGO, June 27.-Bitter-

porters over the Dewey steam
roller" tactics which have placed
the New York Governor in a
commanding position came to

made to get him to withdraw, and
with him 1t. Comdr. Harold E.
Stassen. so that Gov. Dewey could
be drafted" unanimously.
The Broker followers attacked
the methods Of the Dewey campaign
smanassaa which they claim have
been used to obtain 1 presidential
nomination for Gov. Dewey before
the convention met.
Nothing like 1t has ever hap
pened before" said one Ohioan.
TITS not democratic. There is tre-
mendous resentment among the
delegates themselves"
He was referring to the manner
in which State delegations were
called into caucus Saturday and
Sunday and asked to vote for Gov.
Dewey's nomination.
1t Is usual procedure for State
delegations on their arrival in the
convention city to caucus and de-
eide how they shall vote. This
time however they were in a hurry
to get on the Dewey bandwagon,
following the lead set by Illinois.
And nearly all of them voted to
support Gov. Dewey.
This has irritated the Bricker
forces until they are fighting mad.
If this feeling is not allayed, the
harmony of the convention may
be considerably disturbed.
