main purpose of these clubs is to
provide home away from home
for our boys overseas. But in real
ity they do far more than that.
They contribute to every need of the
soldier.
"Of the three clubs on the main
land of Australia stated by Ne
groes and catering mostly to Ne
gro soldiers, one was located in
Townsville small city in northern
Queensland, near the center of a
large Staging area for Negro
troops. Because of inadequate ia
cilities for long time the Red
Cros made no attempt to project
a recreational program for these
soldiers. During this time the NOR
ale Of these men reached a point
so low as to draw the following
remark from one of the top ser
geants. Said he to me, I never go
into town. Anything is likely to
happen and / don't care to be a
part of it. Finally recreational
"hut" was constructed at the camp
and furnished by the Red Cross.

Using this hut to supplement the
activities at the club in town, which
was maintained as the CTS head
quarters, the limited Red Cross
staff, projected program which
company commanders, sergeants,
and GI's alike proclaimed morale
booster of great magnitude. With
out the Red Cross, said one of the
sergeants, I don't know what we
would have DONE

SAYS RED CROSS
BOON TO NEGRO SOLDIER:
TAYLOR PRAISES SERVICE

CHICAGO, Jan. 9 (ANP)-
"The Red Cross is doing fine
job for Negro soldiers" said Sam
Taylor, club director who has just
returned from the South Pacific.
II am surprised to find how little
colored civilians here at home ap-
preciate the remarkable work
which the Red Cross and espec-
tally its colored personnel is do
ing" the former Northwestern
university football star and Prairie
View college coach continued.
"Were it not for the American
Red Cross, the colored soldiers ov-
erseas would find the going mighty
tough, at least so far as morale is
concerned. | make this statement
without fear of contradiction, for
having spent the last IL months in
the Southwest Pacific as Red
Cross Club director which gave me
the opportunity Of talking with
sailors and soldiers not only sta
toned in that area, but also with

sailors on ships that had visited
ports all over the world, l feel quail
flied to make such an assertion.
"The colored soldier is stranger
in a strange land and whether he
is on a 15-day furlough Or a 40
hour pass, he first seeks out a Red
Cross installation, for he knows
he will find friendly countrymen
ready to serve his every need.
"The most important capacity
in which the Red Cross serves the
colored CT is in morale building.
In New Guinea where some of our
boys have not seen civilization for
more than two years, the Red
Cross has been the main contribu-
tor to their morale. It's colored per-
sonnel, both male and female, re-
cruited in the states, has done an
excellent job of morale building.
For example, Hubert Jackson of
Atlanta, thru his untiring efforts,
succeeded in building one of the
finest recreational halls in New
Guinea at Port Moresby, and with
the assistance of such able per-
sons as Misses Clara Wells of
Marshall, Tex, Rosa Spears of
California, Norma Manly and Kitty
Cox of Durham, n. c., projected
one of the most outstanding pro-
grams in all New Guinea. These
are only few of the persons wear
ing the Red Cross uniform who
are doing swell jobs in the jungles.
All of these people were later
transferred to new assignments in
New Guinea where they continued
to do outstanding work.
"Our boys in some parts of New
Guinea have been neglected by the
Red Cross. The same is true in
some parts of India, as was re-
lated to me by a white Red Cross
worker returning to the states on
the same ship as I did. To me the
fault is in the inability Of the Red
Cross to recruit adequate Negro
personnel rather than in the or
ganization itself.

THE truth is that building a foundation

present included War Mobilizer

merce Wallace, OPA's Chester
Bowles, Secretary of the Treasury
Vinson, Secretary of Agriculture
Anderson, and pipe-smoking new
Economic Stabilizer Collett, whose

Secretary of the Navy Forrestal

The meeting split wide open on
the question of a policy OF wage
increases for labor Vinson, Wal
lace and Bowles all maintained
that American industry had suffi-
Gent profits to give wage increases
without increasing prices to con-
sumers. Snyder and Anderson
leaned toward giving industry price
raises and greater profits.
If this deadlock, Truman called
upon the Secretary of the Navy for
his advice Forrestal, of course. was
formerly head of the Wall Street
firm of Dillon, Read. He advised
Truman to favor price increases,
and argued that industry was en-
titled to more profits.
In the end, however, the Vinson-

wage increases without price in
ereases, won out.

HOROSCOPE
"The stars lpcl1Re
but do not compel"
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2,

Conflicting planetary influences
are strongly active today. Decisions
or plans made in the morning hours
may be unwise.
HEART AND HOME
For the majority of Americans
prosperity will last through the WIN
ter. The quest for pleasure Will
be undiminished. Money will be
spent recklessly.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS
All the signs presage great holi-
day trade beginning briskly before
Thanksgiving. Absorption of re-
turning servicemen and women into
business enterprises will be rapid
but there may be a dissemination to
work among many veterans.
NATIONAL ISSUES
Pensions and other Government
aid to individuals will be widely
discussed. Evil portents seem to
warn of a growing tendency to rely
on the public for what should be OBJ
tanned by personal effort. For the
aged the utmost help should be OBJ
ligatory, however, for the stars seem
to indicate severe tests of courage
for men and women past sixty.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
According to astrology President
Truman will WELD U. S. power with
unflagging courage and undertaking
adherence to democratic principles.
1t is forecast that he will make &C
tual the dreams of lasting friend
ship among the United Nations
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of a year OF extreme ac-
tivity Difficult adjustments for
many are indicated but the future
is promising.
Children born on this day probab-
ly will be capable of supreme
achievements but they must be care
fully educated and constantly guild
ed.
