The polish government in exile
followed Mexico today with 20 pro-
posed amendments. Mexico will
present % notifications at the in
terAmerican meeting Of foreign
ministers at Mexico City February
81.
The The Polish changes were
the most drastic yet offered. They
embraced demands for inclusion OF
the Atlantic Charter and its Four
Freedoms, for specific prohibi
ton against regional arrangements
encouraged by Dumbarton Oaks,
for the right of all nations to be
represented on the council when
matters Of concern to them are be-
ing considered, and for omission of
the provisions for disarmament
and treaty or boundary revisions.
The Poles, as expected, support
ed the United States on the voting
procedure issue, opposing Russia's
insistence upon veto power in
the council even in cases to which
it is a party.
Poland's opposition to regional
arrangements was based on the
theory that they would encourage
formation of spheres Of influence
dominated by the big powers. Its
objection to disarmament was be-
cause of Hitler's use Of the Leagues
disarmament clause in the early
1905 as an excuse for rearming
Hitler argued in that era that
German disarmament was condi-
tional on Allied disarmament.

This is not the result OF sheer
luck 'or coincidence, but the pro-
duct of hard work and construc-
tive planning to get good material
for otr artists to record And, in
order to insure an adequate sup
ply OF good original material for
its attractions. Gale, Inc, has OPEN
ed music publishing firm, Song
Distributing Company The men
in this firm spend hours every day
picking songs that they think win
fit in the talent we represent.
But this is only the first step
that we take to insure the coin
machine operator that the record
he buys of our talent will prove
to be good investment. 1t is a
rule of our firm that the artist
must first try out every song he
intends to wax on the road before
he plays it in the ballroom, we
| then know that it will be good for
the machines.
| At the same time we assign the
tested tunes to the bands in the
Savoy Ballroom and delegate a
representative Of Gale. Inc. to
watch the audience reaction. If the
Savoy customers request the band
leader to play this song, and if the
band on the road sends us a favor
able report we know that we have
a song that is SO per cent certain
to meet with universal acclaim in
the music boxes.
Every Gale Inc, attraction car
ries a portable recording machine
| while they are on tour and they
| make acetates of the tunes sched-
uled for the next recording session
These acetates are sent to the Of
| flee and we listen to them, making
special notes of what pleases the
ear and what doesn't. The tunes
are played until everybody is sat-
isfied and then finally o. KID for
final cutting. In short we put in
ten times more work in preparing
our records than in the actual stu
dio work. @ ,5s31@ 3aii&

Rev. C. A. Greer,
9l2 N. Parish ST..
Jackson, As Miss.

|
9l2 N. Parish ST.,
Jackson, As Miss.
Hon. Sir.
All my life I have been a stu
dent of the Bible. Before ! organ
liked the Jackson District Sunday
School and BTU Training School
made careful study of the need of
religious education in the city. 1t
was an accppeted tehory, that there
were three schools of thought
among the ministers. So l talked
with you, DR.. Whitfield, and Rev.
Rice to get your views and opin-
ions on the idea that / had for
Christian eduction. I solicited your
aid in getting the other pastors of
the city to cooperate in a program
of Christian Education The school
was to take the place of study
courses, as the only study courses
we had then were conducted by
white people, and l felt that we
had gone far enough up the intel
lectual scale to do something for
ourselves.
+; At that time, there was an ugly
attitude toward ministers by many
laymen, and I wanted to erase it.
1t was my belief that the minister
!, should be considered leader in all
! things religious. / didn't believe
that this leadership should be die
torial or mandatory; but spiritual
and forceful Foreeful because it
was actuated by righteousness and
respected because it appealed to
the conscience of men didn't be-
lieve that there should be any
grouping into classes; as laymen on
| one side and ministers on the 9TH
er; but that all should be mere
| Christians. When we have class
distinction we breed prejudice,
discrimination and hatred. There
are only to concerns-right and
wrong; and we should uphold the
right. / believed that the ministers
should impel people in certain
channels by sincerity, and not by
denying them the privilege of 60
| ing elsewhere.
You remember when l carried
the idea to the Union and the min
lister promised to work in the
school. l was made Dean because
they said they didn't know the
work. The idea was mine and I had
to finance it. Many ministers fail
ed to do what they promised. Their
pay was small, and they had to do
something to keep the needed cash
coming in. There was a hearty re-
spouse from the laymen and the
school gained momentum
After the school had been in op-
Grafton over year, professional
officer seeker created friction in
the union over Rev. Rice. This fric-
ton led to the writing of a new
constitution by some of the minis
tiers. That new constitution was
presented at Clark Street two years
ago, and the school, having had a
constitution that had been APPROX
ed by the Ministers Union, turned
it down on the ground that it was
not democratic and that it negated
the lofty principles for which min
listers stood. Rev. P. e. Lott, who
was the newly elected president
of the Union, ordered that the
The Mississippi enterprise. (Jackson, Miss.) 1938-current, 1945-08-25

school be operated Under the orr
ginal constitution.
The manner of the election, re-
Gently held by the Union, has nc
precedent in the four years of his
tory of the school, neither does i
any other Baptist procedure. The
National Congress is an auxiliary
to the National Baptist Convention
but the Congress elected its Off.
GERS. The same is true of the state
congress. In no case do we find the
sponsoring institution denying the
members of the auxiliary the priv
ilege of voting for their officers.
You have a petition from many
staunch supporters of the school
begging the union to allow the
school to select its officers. Some
of these members are afraid thai
the union maly decide to senc
them pastor; or that some pastor
may decide to ut an unworthy mar
in as superintendent of the Sunday
School / believe that all gooc
Christians will approve any gooc
recommendation made by the pas.
tor. Pastors don't have to deny the
members this God given right. The
school has taught respect for the
ministers and pastors of the city
testify to its effectiveness. Please
recommend democracy to the
Union.
I am not asking this because ]
want something I have more than
l want to do now. l am asking be-
cause I believe that it will enhance
reset for the ministry and give
imetus to its leadership. The man
who believes that the school now
belongs to him, says that as long
as he is Dean, l cannot teach my
class if I insist on democracy and
that the members of the school be
allowed to elect its officers. / also
ask you to rule here.
l do the most of my work with
boys, who learn by precept and
example. If we want them to be
democratic, if we want them to
make the sacrifice necessary to get
an education, if we want them to
deny their personal lust to rovide
for their families and educate their
children if they have them, if we
want them to leave nasty politics
Gas was used in this easel out OF
the church; we must set the exam
pie. | am not accusing you of this
politics, but I know where part of
it was there. Please kick the poll
tics out, as Rev. Lott did two years
ago, and let the school operate In
a manner similar to the National
and State Congresses?
Yours respectfully,
JAMES A. WHITE.

over your left shoulder when you
are at the top Of the swing.
And so this rule of keeping
your eye on the ball serves the
further purpose of virtually fore
ing the shoulder pivot 10 be in
what approaches vertical plane.
And that's the plane 1t must be in
for a good rhythmic co-ordinated
swing. In the backswing, the left
shoulder rotates under the chin
as the right shoulder rises.
The shoulder pivot should be
decidedly more vertical than the
plane of the hip pivot. Notice how
the left heel rises as the left knee
moves inward. This rising of the
left heel keeps the knees on the
same horizontal plane. And the
left toe keeps a firm grip on the
ground even though the bulk of
the weight shifts TO the right leg
as the swing approaches the top.

country's best 2-year-olds after he
had scored his one-sided victory
in the Arlington Futurity, will
make only one more start this

Hawthorne late this fall and then
return to the farm in Kentucky
TO prepare for his 3-year-old
campaign.

isn't taking any chances with the
colt, which has given indications
he may be Derby material.
GOT SOME CUTS
Spy Song has entirely recovered
from the injuries he suffered in
the Washington Futurity two
weeks ago, Hodgins said. That
was the race in which the colt
started as heavy favorite be-
cause Of his three sensational VIC
tories, but wound up fifth behind
the upset colt, Revoked.
"Spy Song was backing up
when the start came" said Hod-
gins. He shot out between two
horses that were coming to-
gether and was kicked on the
right foreleg, opening quite n
cut. He was nicked up quite n
bit on two other legs, also. He
was eliminated right there. but
he went on and did his best.
THE colt has come right
around and I don't think he'll
have any trouble re-establish-
ing himself"
Hodgins will return TO Chicago
after a conference with his em-
ployer, Charles +. Fisher.
