The Responsibility
of Youth
BY Ruth TAYLOR


The young people of today are
most definite in their demands for
THE rights of Youth" They know
what they want and they are glib
in expressing their desires. They
are terribly sure of what is right
and wiring. and they go most thor
oughly and analytically into every
thing except their own obligations
to society.
Youth has a responsibility in
this life. The young people may
grouse about the mistakes and
shortcomings of their elders-but
are they seizing every opportunity
to gain the knowledge that would
fit them to do more than their
elders? Are they better equipped
for the task of making new
world out of devastation than were
their fathers after the last war?
Their opportunities for education
have been greater and therefore,
their responsibility is greater
The strain on the coming gener-
alton will be great. Those who
take up citizenship in the transit
ton period will require initiative,
resourcefulness, adaptability and
idealism. They must have the

The CORONER'S VERDICT: UNSUITABLE
HOMICIDE
BY J. A. tJack) johnson

The verdict of the eoronor,s
jury was that the killing of Eu-
gene Moszee by four Seattle police
officers. one of whom lost his own
life in the early morning hours of
November Is. was justifiable homi-
eide. 1t was the verdict every one
expected in this particular case
and the only verdict that could
have been honestly rendered by
the jury on the evidence presented
for their consideration. The EVIL
dence presented was preponder.
emily against Moszee and In favor
of the police officers involved.
Whether the verdict of the Jury
was right or wrong, the fact re-
mains that veteran police officer
and Moszee are both dead and
that the cause of their deaths was
stubborness on the part of Moszee
and stupidity on the part OF the
officers involved. 1t seems to us
that any policeman Of even aver
age intelligence would have recou-
nized in Mosxee, a Negro Of above
the average courage, to have or
dered him to stay out Of his place
of business unless he had . war
raHt to enter II.

SHOP EARLY!

The season of holly and mistle-
toe is ushering In a shopping pa
rade which promises to break all
records, for this years national
income will again reach into the
financial stratosphere.
This Christmas, shoppers are
warned more than ever to shop
early. Scarcity of goods may
make it difficult or impossible for
our merchants to secure addition
al stock in many lines when pre-
sent supplies are exhausted.
And wise shoppers will not only
do their buying early, they will do
it at home where they can save
precious time and dollars. Gone
are the days when the big city
held monopoly on lower prices
and variety of goods. With eff
cient merchandising methods our
local merchants have effectively
broken that one-time monopoly
In so doing, they have rendered a
service, not only to shoppers, but
] to the community, for dollars spent
at home create jobs, pay taxes
and support civic improvements OF
every kind.
Our stores stand ready to helI
us fill our Christmas shopping
bag with bargains as fine as any
to be seen anywhere. To FIND
Christmas cheer for ourselves, ant
to spread it among others. let:
shop early and shop at home!

ministers, etc.
We'll. let's see about that. Just
the other day a Negro shoots
down a uniformed police officer
and was promptly shot and killed
by brother officers of the slain
officer. And we find ministers.
Inter-racial Committees and so
called leaders of the race attempt
ing to find excuses for this Me-
groe's act. They have attempted
to paint this Negro as little COB
of innocence, and these officers
as brutes and murderers.
Now | would like to know. since
when did 1t become necessary to
compel a peace officer to secure
a warrant to question any one ac-
cused of disturbing the peace. Now
if Moszee was so innocent and
law abiding. why would he object
to peace officer questioning
him?
Now E. |. r. the trouble with
our race is that the so called lead
ers always cry about the mistreat-
ment of the Negro, but nothing
about his obligations ito society.
And these Carpet Baggers pos
ing as Inter-hacial Committees are
doing lot of harm, getting
few Negroes into a foul smelling
hail. and sending them out with
chips on their shoulders. That is
causing lot of this trouble.

 Boy! And I always thought the Department of Commerce stuck to locomotives. structural steel, manila rope, and industrial chemicals.
