Man Had Brick In His
Stomach For 10 Years

One man recently stated that for
10 years he felt like he had a brick
in his stomach. This feeling was
due to the lump of undigested food
The always had inside of him. He
was weak, worn out, headachy,
swollen with gas and terribly con-
stipated. Recently he started TAX
ing INNER-AID and says the feel
ing like brick in his stomach
disappeared the second day. Bowels
are regular now, gas and head
aches are gone and he feels like
new man.
INNER-AID contains u Great
Herbs; they cleanse bowels, clear
gas from stomach, act on sluggish
liver and kidneys. Miserable peo-
pie soon feel different all over. So
don't 60 on suffering! Get INNER.
AID. Sold by All Drug Stores here

For, if the Negro vote in the North
had not been cast sOlidly for
Roosevelt in the last two presi-
Dental elections, it is highly prob
able that either Willkie or Dewey
would have been elected and the
Democrats would not now be in
complete control of this govern
ment.
The time has come when the
Negro must reflect upon the course
events are taking. The South is
again determined that the return
ing soldiers of this, World War II,
will not be accorded the democratic
rights they so heroically fought
and died for. We must not again
be thwarted. However, unless the
Negro falls back upon the power
of the ballot, and uses it with a
high degree of intelligence, we may
find ourselves giving aid and sup
port to our vilest enemies.
Minneapolis spokesman. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1945-10-26

hopelessness are tighter around US
today than ever before.
Our churches afford little prac-
teal solutions. Our organizations
expound mostly words. Our bread
still comes from the white men be-
cause we haven't yet learned to
bake it for ourselves. Out of the
labyrinth of doubt comes the
thought that much already done in
solving our problem will have to
be undone.
1t would appear that we have
travelled far down the wrong roads.
Right now with the war only con-
cluded a few months ago, we are
living on a powder keg of racial
hostilities which need but a spark
to blow the lid off. Some will
deny it, and SNUG in the personal
acceptance of themselves by the
white man, will paint a rosy picture
of Negroes and whites seated
around the dinner table, all men,
bers of one big happy family at
last. These are the kind of lead
ers who are always seeing rain
bows, whether they are there or not.
They want Happiness" in our
time and are prepared to sacrifice
the well-being, the blood, sweat,
and tears that have gone into our
struggle just to bolster their own
personal pride when they are
picked out by the white man as
some sort of equal"
If we will sit down and take
stock, it will be found that we have
gone for nearly a century without
learning one fundamental element
in the formula of racial advance
ment. We have no race discipline,
we have no racial respect and we
have no knowledge Of precision in
thinking and in mass action that
are the necessities of any program
to move a race forward from
condition of half-slavery.
We can't control five Negroes as
leaders except in circumstances
where what is commanded is in line
with what the five want. You see
examples of this lack of racial dis
cipline on all sides. We have no
single thing to bind all together;
our children are being brought up
in an atmosphere and environment
of confusion.
The team work, the working to-
gether of all of US for the good
of all, is not apparent. In isolated

instances, yes. In general, no.
There are Negroes who deplore
such groupings of all of US, as in
politics, as "The Negro Vote"
Others don't want to be identified
as Negroes but as Americans.
Then there are many who are
just the opposite in their thinking
in these instances. The confusion
is maddening.
The white man selects the Ne
groes he wants US to worship. We
seldom do. Our leaders are usually
too busy trying to be the objects
of such worship that the real heroes,
those who have laid down their lives
for our cause, are forgotten or are
discredited.
We are prone to accept the theory
that anything a Negro does is no
good; anything he has to sell is no
good, and so on. If it were not
for the so-called little Negro"
the man in the street, our whole
economic framework, business in
stitutions, etc., would come crash
ing down around our necks.
The "little Negro" and God be
thanked for him, remains almost
purely Negro in what he thinks and
what he does, and damns the whole
world if it doesn't like it.
1t is only the Negro on top, in the
saddle, who tries to be something
else. And that brings about the
lack of respect We have for one
another and for our Negro institu-
tions.
Precision means unity. We don't
have it in purpose nor in viewpoint.
Some want all Negroes to try to get
white by whatever means; creams,
oils, acids, etc. Others want to
think white. AS a result, our
children grow up in the garden of
confusion and are doomed to life
of warped thinking on the race
question which is their number one
consideration.
We must undo as much of this as
soon as possible and find the COM
mon denomination of racial ad-
vancement and begin afresh along
new lines. Even though the new
paths are tortuous and narrow,
there is no other way to freedom.
