INTERRACIAL essay CONTEST

GREENSBORO, N. c., June
(ANP)-" Today the Negro is fac
ing the greatest crisis in his his
tory" was the observation by Miss
Ohrea Bagwell in her first prize
winning eassay entitled, "The Ne
gro's Plea for Understanding" in &
contest conducted by the Greens
boro chapter of the North Caro-
lima Interracial commission. The
contest, held recently, included al
the colleges in the country.
Negroes are coming to realize, >
Miss BagwelPs essay continued
that the Negro dilemma is nc
longer confined to the south; that
the old Negro idea of northern free
dom is a myth.
Daily we see and hear of things
happening that try the very souls
of Negroes who yearn for freedom
To talk about interracial and inter
cultural goodwill is fine enough,
but to talk and do nothing is to lose
a golden opportunity and to break
faith with future generations.
'Just as we cannot survive long
on diet of bread and water, neith-
er can interracial harmony be OBJ
tained without maintenance on the
part of all people concerned. We
know that racial unity depends up
on that feeling of brotherhood
which must be present in our So
ciety if we want to pull together
as one. We have a great task be-
fore US. We must come together
and work on our individual prob
lens with open minds. Very often
we have thought of race relations
simply as relations involving the
Negro. We have thought of the Ne
gro problem and race relations sim
ultaneously. The Negro is not a
problem nor is he liability. 1t is
a matter of group relationships
with mutual difficulties on both
sides of the fence.
"The Negro fights unreservedly
for democracy. Will America be
wise enough to abolish all such in
stitutions that are democracy. Will
America be wise enough to abolish
all such institutions that are bar
riers to Negro freedom and civiliza-
ton such as segregation, jim crow

ing? We shall seek it, making nc
excuse.

Sightless Actresses Use
Ingenious Tricks in Acts

The Lighthouse Players, a group
of blind women who present a
number of plays in New York each
season, employ ingenious tricks to
enable them to move about and do
their bits of stage business as nat
urally as actors with sight, says
Golfers. For example, they use
strips of carpet, Is inches wide, to
guide them to doors, windows,
chairs and other props.
They click the teaspoon when
passing cup of tea, so the recipi-
ent will know where to reach for
the saucer without fumbling; and
they fold down a corner of a news
paper or magazine that is to be
picked up and glanced through,
so they will not "read" it upside
down.

pointed out that each wall panel
opened up to reveal spacious closets
and shelf units behind them, which
not only provided useful storage ia
cilities but in addition provided Won
derful insulation which kept the

the French-yet they sound very
postwar!
During her years in Paris, Miss
Irby was on the eaching staff of the
Parsons School of Design where so
many leading American decorators
have been trained. She described
the way the students worked, how
they made measured drawings of the
architectural detail in many of the
most important buildings in France
and Italy. She showed us some of
these very drawings, remarking:
''Now you see why there has been
so much good rocco and baroque
design in America these past few
years-the modern decorators who
have incorporated the lovely scrolls
in modern rooms learned how to use
and adapt them in their student
days in Paris"

Dry Studs Effective for

for this job dry suds work like mag
ic. The method is simple and eff
fective, and the results satisfactory.
To make the suds, dissolve one
half cup of neutral soap flakes,
beads, chips or bar soap shaved in
small pieces in one quart of hot soft
water. To test the soap to see if it
is neutral, put a bit of it on your
tongue, and if neutral it will not bite
or sting. When the soap solution
has cooled to a jelly-like consisten-
cy, beat it with a rotary egg beaten
until it looks like cake icing. When
suds die down, rebeat them.
Remove the dust from the uphol-
stored furniture with a vacuum
cleaner or whisk broom. Before
shampooing the fabric with dry
suds. test in an inconspicuous place
to see whether it is washable. If
so, then apply the dry suds to a
small area with a brush, sponge or
cloth. Use light circular motion.
Scrape off the soiled suds with
spatula. Rinse with a sponge or
cloth wrung from clear lukewarn
water using circular motion. Rinse
several times. Be sure no soap re-
mains in the material. Use as little
water as possible so that the founda-
ton will not become wet. Work
