Dangerous Talk

FOR MANY MONTHS we have
been warned of the dangers of
careless talk. The war posters re-
mind us that 1.-THE enemy is list
enlng." He Is, and what he hears
he is turning upon us with the
fury of an avenging angel. In
spite OF our proteStationS and as
surances to the contrary, the war
situation is diSquieting. With the
so-called united nations disunited
and pickering, and with Ger
many's offensive which threaten
ed the western front, we are dis
illusioned about the wars early
termination. Our super optimism
our low opinion of our foes are
our high opinion of ourselves and
about to engulf us in a vortex of
confusion SO dangerously exempli-
fled In the attitudes of the unit
ed nations towards one another.
When Russia recognizes one Pol
ish government and the United
States and Great Britain, another
we get some idea of the problems
that must be solved ere the eagles
of victory perch upon our banners.
Dangerous talk is just as danger
Gus now. as it. ever was, and due
heed should be given this fact in
the interest of self -defense. Just
the other day I saw war post
er with the picture of a rattle
snake poised to strike. It was CAP
toned che is less dangerous than
the careless talker." In many ways
this Is true.
RESENTMENT DEEP
But If careless talk is so danger
Gus to the allied cause, how does
1t affect race relations? Sometimes
we are made to wonder how we
are going to evade the consequent
ces of lot of careless irresponsi-

There was, no apparent provoca-

been set for the preliminary hear
ing in the case.
Bill Stamps, according to reports,
was the victim of murder when the
brother of a man with whose girl
friend he had some disagreement
earlier in the night slipped up be-
hind. his back, shortly after mid
night, while he was in conversation
with another man and hit him
over the head several blows with a
heavy piece of wood After he had
knocked him down he took a pis-
toll from his pocket and shot him
in the back The scene took place
near the north end of the Negro
section on the Fannin Road in East
Jackson. Rushed to a hospital in
Jackson he died shortly after five
o'clock Monday afternoon without
regaining consciousness.
Cliff Mangum of Rankin County
was arrested in Jackson early Mon
day morning after police reported
that they found him with a pistol
taken from the body of STAMPS. He
was later transferred to the Ran
kin County jail to await a preli-
mlnary hearing which was SCI for
Wednesday morning, although it
was expected to be postponed until
after the funeral. No arrangements
for the funeral has been made
pending the arrival of relatives.

lators are legion. And he doesn't
"Uncle Tom" to make them. His
few public speeches on the floor do
not mean he is shrinking violet.
DIFFERENT TYPES
No shrinking violet would be
unanimously elected by his state
Congressional delegation as their
sole representative on the Demo-
cratic Congressional Campaign
Committee. No shrinking violet
would be given the final say on
political patronage to Negroes. No
shrinking violet could have t h e
Congressional leaders handling
him with kid gloves on matters we
cannot now talk about-but later.
OF course, the two men are diff
ferent types. Powell is going to
speak on the floor more than
Dawson would. But Powell isn't
going to be the fool lot Of people
either innocently naive or in
tentionally antagonistic- hoped he'd
he. He'll make himself heard on
important issues, and only then.
His very presence In Congress
has done two things already. It has
served as sort of q damper on Ran
kin, who in the past has rarely
gone month without making
race batting speech. Rankin even
passed up an excellent opportunity
to comment on the FEPC--Capital
Transit hearings. But even more,
he actually tried to picture himself
as friend of Negroes in one of his
speeches. CAS- Charley Cherokee
would say-'Not now, John Henry.o
BEING SMART
The only blast Rankin has made
was---irl- letter -to~e Mississippi
editor about Powell, which got in
to the newspapers. Powell replied
in kind-with a statement to the
press.
Powell's being smart. He intends
to be legislator, not show. Why
else would he introduce seven bills
last week?
I hope his "well-wishing" friends
will not think he's welching or
wincing. No one can challenge his
courage. If he picks his way as
astutely throughout his Congress
ional career as he seems intent on
doing this first month, no one will
be able to challenge his wisdom,
either.
II there were more than two Ne
groes in Congress, we'd say, let's
have one of them Side-ShOw at
traction to match Rankin. But
with only two, If one Of them is
fool, that's so per cent and that's
too high ratio, Rankin is only one
among 433 other whites.

kind of~talk and takers? The sys-

was expressing what many letter
ed Negroes feel but it is doubtful
If she was expressing it the right
way and to the right audience. On
the other hand, there has been

 Tn this land where sin and horror were rampant, there were men who thrived on death, Jawrski told the seven-man tribunal. Tn their eyes human life was cheap. Their consul will plead for their lives.

Live Allied p0WS Used as
 Bayonef pratiite Targets
 By laps; Airotify Revealed
By DUANNE HENNESY

TOKYO, Oct. 15-The use of live Allied prisoners of war as bayonet targets, while Allied off cers were forced to look on, has been fully established, Gen. Mac Arthur's Headquarters announced today.
 The new record of atrocity was developed by the secret Allied translation and interrogation sec- tion of the Allied Headquarters which worked through the war in- terviewing Japanese prisoners and sorting documents seized in battle zones. One. secret unit, the exist ence of which was undisclosed until last week, included many Japanese Americans and worked often while shells were still blasting across con- tested positions.
 One of the worst of the bayonet practice atrocities occurred on Guadalcanal where two Europeans and one Eurasian were used as practice targets while Allied of ficers were forced to stand in line and watch for six and a half hours while the three were hor- ribly mutilated and tortured by the stabbing Nipponese, the announce ment said. Enlisted prisoners peri odically were paraded past the scene so they could see the death agonies of the three.
 Records of the ATS disclosed that one of the bayoneted pris- oners had been recently married, another left wife and two chil- dren, while the third had a wife and one child.
 The translated diary of'a Japa- nese officer gave full details of tre horrible scene.
