THE POLL TAX

Representatives of ten million
church women have adopted a
strongly worded resolution con-
demning the poll tax, urging pas
sage of the federal anti-poll tax
bill, and calling on the Senate to
adopt cloture TO break any fill
buster against the bill.
The resolution was adopted by
the National Board of the United
Council of Church Women, meet
ing in Washington October %, %,
"a, and %. Text of the resolu-
ton: 1.-The United Council oil
Church Women believe that a free
vote must be guaranteed to all
citizens of the United States. We
believe that the enactment of fed
eral anti-poll tax legislation is a
major step in that direction
Therefore, we call upon he Senate
of the United States to ratify H
r. Z without delay, and If neces-
sary to vote the cloture rule to
block any undemocratic filibuster
We commend the work of the
National Committee to Abolish the
Poll Tax and recommend that the
United Council of Church Womer
cooperate with this agency in the
promotion of this anti-poll ta1
legislation"

The CONQUEST
OF FEAR
BY D. c. Collins

Why do we fear facts?-I be.
lieve there should be no time vast
ed looking backward. We should
concentrate on plans for the flu
ture. If we can not change UNI
satisfactory situations, then we
should face the facts ard make
the best of it; cultivate the spirit
of tolerance-try to understand
others view points and concede
them the rights of their opinions.
You may not agree with them but
If you had their background and
experiences you might think and
act as they. Remember, that hap
piness comes through being help
full to others. Let your sense of
humor expand. There are very
few people who live under condi-
tons that are entirely satisfactory
to themselves. To face these dis
turbances, one should do so with
courage and action.
FEAR-Fear creates jealousy.
one of the greatest and most de-
structive of evils. 1t causes folk
to lie on others to hurt their in
fluence in the community. Fear
creates enyy-some folk are green
Eyed with envy, hate and their
ssociated evils. Remember, none
; us are indispensable. We are
all useful in some way, but none
absolutely necessary. We drop out
of the picture today; the world
moves on.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: 7

ANNOUNCEMENT: The next
membership meeting of the Urban
League of Portland will be held
Tuesday, November q, 1916 at
500 pm. in Library Hall Central
Public Library 10th and Taylor.
Guest speaker will be DR.. Mel
vile Jacobs of the Department of
Anthropology, University of Wash
ington. He will speak on the
subject Racial Myths" The true
facts about race and racial char
acteristics, particularly as they
apply to Negros, are known and
understood by too few Portlanders.
Many in our midst still cling to a
Master Race" theory. DR.. Jacobs
will give us the evidence we need
to intelligently explode this myth.
The scientific facts must be told
and retold. This is basic to real
progress in interracial and inter-
cultural relations in Portland.

Union Thanksgiving

Portland joined the universal
choir this Thanksgiving in singing
praises and giving thanks to God
Almighty for His gifts this year
to mankind. Out of four years OF
chaos came We and vi Days
then peace. The spirit of faith,
hope and love was greatly evil
denced amid church services fol
lowed by ample feasting of tur-
key and trimmings. Welcomed
home, some on furloughs, many
discharged, were sons and hus-
bands reunited with their families
after seeing active duty in war
theaters.
Starting the day right was the
Annual Union Thanksgiving Serv-
ices held Thanksgiving Day at
Mt. Olivet Baptist Church-Bethel
A. M. f., First A. NJ. f. Zion and
Mt. Olivet churches participating.
Rev. j. ]. Glow, pastor host pre-
sided. Rev. ]. f. Smith, pastor of
First A. NJ E. Zion. assisted with
deyotionals. The three combined
choirs under direction of Mr.. C. E.
Ivey. director of Bethel's Senior
choir; Mrs. Magnolia Taylor, Beth
els organist at the plano, enliv-
ened and added spiritual fervor
augmenting the powerful message
delivered by Rev. Cornelius N.
Austin, Jr., pastor of Bethel. His
text was taken from the 9th
Psalms LIST verse - The Lord
Reigneth; let the earth rejoice;
let the multitude of isles be glad
thereof. His subject, Rejoice In
the Lord" was thought provoking.
Overwhelmed with the spirit, Rev.
Austin in a clear cut, practical
way impaired many trues as he
showed how by providence the
passage-message in THAT other
day, was a comparison of the day
in which we live. The large gath
ering voiced their praises in no
small degree. AT the close of the
services Rev. Austin was deluged
with expressions of gratitude from
the audience for his contribution
to the services.

tor of Mt. Olivet Baptist church,
and Rev. j. F. Smith, pastor OF
First A. M. E. Zion church ex-
changed pulpits last Sunday, each
to the surprise of their respective
congregations, it worked wonders
after the congregations recovered
from the great surprise. Wonder
full sermons were preached by
both; every body was pleased,
and went away happy. 1t is hoped
that this gesture will be catch
ing. 1t might help to do away
with much of the chickering's, self
ishness and jealousy that exists
in churches, between pastors and
between members and eongre-
cations.

why Not?"

We do not believe that anyone
really expected the Daughters of
the American Revolution to
change the policy of refusing the
use of their Constitution Hall in
Washington to Negro artists. The
OAR does not move very fast. 1t
lives in the past. and the terrific
slap 1t received several years ago
when 1t denied its hall to Marian
Anderson has not had time to reg
lister, even with the impetus of
war.
But no one expected the First
Lady of the land, Mrs. Harry Tru-
man. to reply, ''Why not?" when
she was asked by a reporter
whether she would attend future
affairs of the OAR. Mrs. Truman
had plausibly explained that she
attended a OAR tea because the
invitation had been accepted be-
fore the Hazel Scott incident
arose. So far so good. Not the best,
but good.
Then the Missouri lady uttered
what may become one of the clas-
sic unfortunate remarks in poll
ticc xVould che affand future
OAR affairs now that she knew
their policy, now that her dis
tinguished husband had compared
the OAR ban to Nazi policies?
"Why not?" she said.
