MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH
Re. J. H. Dennis, Pastor
Let's not let down by forget
ting what we should remember.
The Book says: Remember the
Sabbath and keep it holy. We
are not satisfied with the desc
Grating amusements and games,
but we give aid to them by sug-
costing that we have Just one
service on Sunday OF the three
involved, where does the fault
lie; with God, the church or the
world? The answer is yours.
Keep your eye on the Seven
Seals being preached at Mt
Zion by Rev Dennis. Only two so
far, the white Horse and the
Red Horse" Sunday June ID:
third seal - the"Black Horse"
Zion members were on hand
Sunday, June II, both morning
and evening, to hear the SER
mons on the RED Horse" At
7:45 the subject was strife and
the sword is seen and felt. Not
only is the sword wet with hu-
man blood, but in the shortage
of food and In the ration sys-
tenn it is felt the world over and
its evil doing is growing worse.
Linked to these conditions strife
booms up anew. It's the root
and messenger Of confusion, I'M
rest, danger and death And
there is no peace n sight.
Just a word or so concerning
my statement about the Cath
olic Church. I did not refer to
the Catholic Church in Boston.
I am not so narrow. Catholics
have the same rights as others.
I referred to the heads, the uni
ersal set up, When the war lord,
now dead, entered Ethiopia, not
a word Of sympathy, nor a hand
Of help was offered. The question
is, What is back Of all the pres
emit zeal, sympathy and activity
to rechristianiZe and educate the
100000 soealled "Negroes?"
We are not all asleep on these
lines. II you doubt my word, get
the magazine called the Colored
Harvest. Mrs S Wooden is
back home and feeling much
better. Mrs Mary Allen is out
and active again. Rev L N Mar
tin was our preacher, Sunday,
June 10. Come to Zion.

Last week Mrs Alice L Banks
of SO Harvard ave entered the
July 10th Medford Primary as
a candidate for the School Com

Mrs Larson are the only women
entered and both are Republic
cans. Win, lose or draw, Mrs
Banks should receive the united
support of Ward Six whe;e she
resides and is the mother Of
five children. She has served this
community well in many capac-
tiles and there is no question
but that Mrs Banks is fully quaI-
flied for the position. We need
representatives at City Hall and
voters Of both parties should
unite IN this objective.
Briefng the candidates: The
Democrats will have to decide
between Carew, McDermott ana
Skerry for Mayor on the Pri-
mary ballot next month. Law

publican slate and will enter the
finals anyway. There will be b
hot race for Alderman in Waru
Six where Lou Peters has
stepped aside. Ex-Aldermall

the army to run again. Popular
Anna L Roberts is also in this
race and so is orr old school
mate Ted Rose, former Jim Far
ley for Mayor Lawrence. IN fact
Ted Rose is running on born
sides of the slate and should
reach the finals. Chef Francis

LABOR LAWS

For ten years American labor relations have been governed bascally by the Wagner Labor Disputes Act of 1855. Under this law labor has been guaranteed the right to strike, employers have been prohibited from interfering in union activities and the National Labor Relations Board has to enforcement The premise of the law, stated in its opening phrases, is that before the act passed there existed an inequality of bargaining power between labor and management which worked in favor of the latter,
 Under the Wagner act labor has made it's greatest gains From 1884 to 1914 membership in the principal labor organizations increased from 5550 900 to 14- 3O0000 At the end of its first full nine years the NLRB had handled ,494 cases. supervised 19014 elections the question of union organization. Most of these eections-l3,04 ,042-came in the last three years as the drive toward union organization was stimulated by wartime working conditions. Manage ment protested that the law stacked the cards in favor of labor and expressed fear that with the lifting of wartime controls there would violent industrial difficulties that would seriously disrupt reconversion
 Congress now has before it a bill calling for complete overhaul of the Wagner act In the eyes of labor the new bill would mean abandoning the original premise that labor's bargaining power unequal The bill was sponsored by Senators Carl A. Hatch Democrat, of New Mexico; Harold H Burton, Re- publican of Ohio, and Joseph H Ball, Republican, of Minnesota-the three Senators who with Lister Hill Democrat, of Alabama formed the B2H2 combina- ton which last year took the lead in pledging the Senate to liberal international program The bills principal provisions would

(Continued from Page One)

nounced sits demobilization plan on May 12. it set up the 85 point re- quiremerit for discharge and also announced that a revised figure would be given within 45 days or by June s27. It is now July IA, and millions { of men are still waiting for that Announcement.
 Meanwhile more h he d h e S, heartaches and resentment have developed over discharges than al- most anything in the Army, Some of this is unavoidable. Some, on the other hand, seems due to Army inefficiency, including the amount of discretion allowed individual of ficers and units.
 For instance, the Air Forces set up a separate demobilization pro- gram in some areas, and at Las Vegas, Nev., began releasing young officers by the hundreds. There was such a surplus of second lieuten- ants that those with only 42 points were let out. First lieutenants with only 58s points were discharged, and captains with only 70 points were permitted to leave the service.
 Meanwhile enlisted men who still need s5 points to get out are burn ing up.
 Part of the irregularity in ad- ministering the point system re- suits from the fact that each com manding officer has the right to reject a mans application for dis charge-no matter how many points he has-by declaring him essen tial" Obviously certain key tech nical men fall into the category and cannot be spared. Also it is much more practical to use train ed veterans than to break in new men, However, there is increasing resentment from battle-scarred vet erans with points galore, some Of whom feel they are kept in the service because of some gripe or prejudice on the part of command ing officers.

scaled down. There are 1,600 gen. erals in the Army today, many of them lieutenant colonels or even captains before the war. And en- listed men are wondering whether essential" and military necessity aren't sometimes convenient ex- cuses for keeping Army manpower padded. For, if the Army is cut toe sharply, large number of general officers will be retired This view does not make for morale, but un- fortunately it exists among enlisted men.
 One thing which G. Is can't un- derstand is why the Army, when fighting two-front war, was will ling to release a man over 38 if he had war job; whereas today with only a one-front war, the Army has upped the age limit to 40.
 Another thing the Army can't adequately explain is why they've established so few Separation Gen. ters to handle discharges, and why one of them, Camp Dix, N. J., is so poorly run that it was recently sub- jected to complete investigation by the Inspector Generals office
 One group especially restless are the limited service men-men with physical infirmitieS, who were drafted for non-combat service and hence can never go abroad to roll up discharge points. They are at the bottom of the discharge bar rel and probably can't get out un- til the end of the war.
 Obviously, these are complex problems and extremely difficult for the Army to solve. Actually though they aren't announcing it Army personnel experts are work ing on a new system, but it's not likely to hatch until the end of the summer or fall Meanwhile the dis charge snafu continues.
 Note-One thing that especially gripes enlisted men is that, while they aren't supposed to write to their Congressman, the brass hats troop up to Capitol Hill in droves and even maintain a special lobby ing agency in Congress to convince the legislators of their own eff ciency.

 Summer resorts will profit greatly in coming weeks when large numbers of persons will forget war restric- tions and seek needed recreation. Mexico will draw many tourists.

 While the President of the United States gains in popularity there are portents of partisan criticism that should bring ultimate helpful re- suits. The stars seem to smile upon the White House at this time.

 Remarkable progress is forecast for the rehabilitation of all European countries on which war has wrought devastation. Britain and France are to lead in progress toward full re- storation of ruined homes and pub lie buildings.
