Hi va Pal,
How goes life with you? Has
Spring with its balmy days reached
your realm yet? Our surrounding
present a beautiful picture with the
bright colors interspersed with the
green.
Life goes OH at home with a
little more enthusiasm since the
Rhine has been crossed. Somehow.
/ feel that this is the final chapter
| in the Huns book The events may
stretch out in the pages but | still
feel that this is the last chapter.
Liberation is bringing to light so
many grim stories of malnutrition
and starvation. Something tell me
that it will take years and years
to heal the scars of this ugly con-
| flict. So much vast destruction!
The NAACP Drive is on and
workers are trying to make this one
exceed all others More than ever
before they need strength and
feel that they will get their quota,
| for more and more Negroes realize
| that unified efforts are more effec-
tive than any other weapon.
The Wac situation is deplorable.
] don't know the details but I do
know this - 1t Is ironical to volun-
teer for a cause and end up SUBJ
jugated to treatment comparable TO
that of a criminal. I still maintain
that democracy at home would in
tensify democracy abroad.
The Easter stage is all set and
here's hoping that the models will
have ideal weather. Sunrise services
will be held again this year. and I
hope that this one lives up to the
standard. Somehow sunrise services
bring one SO near the sepuIcher
One can visualize the rolling away
of the stone on that gray still
morning.
The Red Cross brought fine
show to town; it had everything
Like the NAACP, the Red Cross is
working to exceed its goal.
Keep your ineStimable faith and
I am sure that all will be we'll

In 1885, he voted for the Wag-

In 1896, he voted against return
