Bishop Shell Says
 Labor Has Answer
Continued from Page One)


 cause these people had faith in man and in his ability to achieve freedom and decency. They hung cred and thirsted and died because they believed above all in freedom from every oppression; freedom to work as dignified human be- ings; freedom to live in the way God intended His own children should live.
 MANS PLACE IN WORLD
 Let us have no illusions about the real issue of this struggle. Beneath the clash of military machines, be- low the surface of political differences and economic conflicts there is but one basic issue; and it is man him self and his place in the world of tomorrow People everywhere are acutely aware of this and are asking some very pertinent questions. Are the common people to be considered capable of real freedom? Are they to be granted their rightful partici- patton in the political and social in stitutionS which they have helped to create, which they support, and under which they live? Above, all, are the people, the workers of the world, to be given an equitable share of the wealth of the world? ...
 It seems to me that labor is the one group which can and will give the best and most concrete answers to these questions of the common man. And this is so, simply be- cause labor is composed of conn mon men. Labor knows what is close to the heart of the common man everywhere.
 Labor knows that the common mans desires are not excessive: they consist of a home, a piece of land; a stable job, an opportunity to educate his children. Labor knows that organization is the most efficient and the most endur- ing way of achieving these things. Labor knows, then, that for the future peace and for the extension of democracy, labor unions are an absolute necessity.
 As a recognized and permanent force in American life, labor unions have unique opportunity and a unique obligation in the peace that is to come. The union can strike the most telling blows against potent source of unrest and rebellion i'll the American nation; discrimination against Negroes. By admitting Ne groes into its membership on basis of equality, the unions can destroy economic injustice and beat down barriers of ill-will and stupid oppo- sition. Similarly, the labor unions can help eradicate the cancer of anti Semitism; a cancer which gnaws at the very vitals of American life; which if allowed to continue would shrivel Americas heart and retard the realization of the American ideal.
 American democracy will never come to full flower until discrim- ination against Negroes and Jews and all minority groups is erased from our national and personal lives, for of such groups is made the greatness of America. Any discrimination tears into shreds the solidarity of the human race and makes a mockery of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Christ. We have asked the Negro and the Jew to fight and die for democracy; it would be the basest cynicism to re- fuse to share with them that de- mOcracy.

BY FANNIE HURST

This is a story of an S3-year-old
girl
Her name is the only fancy
thing about her. 1t is Adeline de
Walt Reynolds. But it reduces TO
simple "Addie."
She was born on an Iowa farm
during the second year of the Civil
War. You know her by thousand
different names.
She lives next door to you You
meet her in your self-service market.
You pass her on the street. Her son
is a CT. She teaches your children in
the public schools. She is your hus-
bands private secretary. She is your
widowed SeamStreSs. She solicitS life
insurance. She lives with her daughter
in-law and does not like il. She knitS
in the park. She lives in a family
hotel. She occupies a room in an
old ladies home.
Addie Reynolds could be any one
of these. But she isn't. She's movie
Starlet - at SO.
Addie Reynolds has played several
important roles, but the one that
put her on top of the heap was the
Characterization OF Barry FitZgerald's
mother in Going My Way" the pic
ture that scooped in almost every
Hollywood prize last year.
Success, to Addie, was no accident.
Back in the shadows of the last cen
tury, she completed a course in dra-
matics at the New England Conserva-
tory of Oratory and headed for the
stage.
But-Boy meets girl. Marriage
intervenes. Happy home. Happy
wife. Two babies. And then, crash!
Widowhood. Economic pressure.
Young wife shouldering her burden
alone.
The Iowa farmers daughter, who
turned away from an offer of a stage
career with Henry Irving, now finds
herself running public stenography
office in San Francisco.
Then ( follows act-of-God. Fire
wipes her out. And then she begins
all over again.
This she does, the Addie Reynolds
way. There are the two children TO
be educated according TO her high
ideals, and educated they are. When
that is accomplished blythe literal
sweat of Adde'S brow, and her young
daughter is about TO take her Mas
ter's Degree at the University of Cal
ifornia, Addie, a grandmother then,
decides that now the time has come
for her, too, to catch up on college
education.
And so, at seventy, this woman,
who could have been grandmother 10
anyone of her classmates, takes her
degree with high honors at the Uni
versity of California.

Led in Shutouts

The shutout also gives Trout
head start for the new season in
that department. With seven.
Trout led the league in shutouts
last year. Harold Newhouser was
second with six Trout also topped
the league in earned run average
last season with 2.l2 for 40
games, in which he worked 352
innings.
And, of. course. the colorful
Trout chose an otherwise dra-
matte day on which 10 start the
season spectacularly. The Trouts
added a daughter. Diane Ruth. TO

the third child. There are two
sons. The Tiger pitcher is in De-
troit today meeting Miss Trout.
He will pitch against the Indians

The Tigers lop-sided victory
over The Browns yesterday seems
freighted with possibilities for the
season. For one thing. il looks
like Roger (Doc) Cramer has de-
cided not 10 postpone his hitting
as was the case last year, when he
struggled along for more than a
month with less runs batted in
than he totaled yesterday.
With three hits. one a two-bag-
ger; the good doctor knocked
home no less than six runs as the
Tigers tore apart five OF Luke
Sewell's FINGERS, including Jack
Kramer who lasted less than two
innings.
With six hits IN two days
three in each OF the two games
played Eddie Mayo Is off 70
good start. MAYO has collected six
hits in nine official times at bat
for a batting average of .667
Which is fair whacking, the
reader must agree.

This straight sellout proposition

There Just won't be time for

No matter how Detroit comes
out in this series. we feel the
club and Adams. too. deserves A
hand on doing as well as IL has
without sgd Howe. Here is the
player who not only scored 55
points-just one short of Joe Car
