Nelson to Renuin
In United States

In a sermon last Sunday morn
ing, Rev. C. T. R. Nelson, pastor of
the Camphor Memorial Methodist
Church, announced that he and Mrs.
Nelson had decided not to accept
the invitation of Bishop Willis J.
King, head of the Methodist work
in Liberia, Africa, to serve as mis-
sionaries.
The Camphor pastor gave two
principal reasons for not accepting
"a most attractive and challenging
invitation" to serve in Africa at
this time. "With VI day fast ap-
preaching and. all the problems that
we face as race group in this
nation there is so much that needs
to be done here in St. Paul and all
over the country, would simply be
reluctant to leave St. Paul, in par
ticular, at this time," Rev. Nelson
said.

VI Duy Emotions

Augustus L. Hill, 872 Iglehart
a machinist at International Har-
vester: 81 think it was a great
victory. Shows the might of the
Allied powers. 1 really think Ne
groes will retain their jobs in in
dustry, because we are living in a
new era"
Mrs. ]. Powers, Sal Mississippi:
81 am really overjoyed, and am
happy that the boys will be coming
home soon."
Rev. L. E. Williams, st. Phillips
Episcopal Church: 81 am rather
glad it is over, but people born dur
ing my time, living during the
crash, didn't have a chance, as just
as they got a chance to do some
thing, this war came along. Even
if they died for what they were
fighting for, unless it is going to be
different, there is nothing to rejoice
over. 1t will be just wasted lives.
John AinswOrth, 271 18th St., an
employee of Armour Packing
Plant: 81 feel very happy about
the boys coming home, and hope
they will have the best of luck in
finding good jobs. 1 do hope and
pray there will be a better show
than what we have had"
DIR. Earl S. Weber, dentist, 1873 E.
9Th St.: at is a marvellous thought
and feeling to know that this ter
rible conflict is over, and we can
return, gradually, to normal. We,
as Negroes, should rejoice and in
sist and put to practice and exer-
else the four freedoms, in their full
ness.
Margarita G. Hill, housewife, 872
Iglehart: 81 am rather dubious of
the colored people getting their full
rights, as citizens in the world, with
the Allied victory in Europe and
the Pacific. Unless there is some
definite plan like the passing of the
F.E.P.C."

Persons wishing job or placement
interviews at the Minneapolis Ur-

building, on Fourth Street and Mar
quette Avenue, can see William Sea-
bron, industrial secretary, from 900
to 1890 a. M, or from 8 to 4:3O
p. m. daily, except Saturday when
the office closes at noon.
James T. Wardlaw, executive
secretary of the League, empha-
sized this week the necessity for
qualified workers, particularly in
the semi-skilled and skilled classes,
to register at the office.
"The only way Mr.. Seabron and
l have of knowing the number of
workers available for postwar jobs
in the community so that we can
place them when the call arises, is
to have a record of them in this
Office" Wardlaw said.

Successful Meetings.
for St. Paul Coop,
Opening Date Set

The most successful meeting since
its organization three months ago
was held by the cooperative group,
Saturday evening, August II, at
the Halle @. Brown House, when
large number of members and
supporters attended to hear promi-
nent speakers, and to receive a re-
port on the membership and share
selling campaign.
Appearing on the program as
guest speakers were Laurence Jen-
sen, manager of the Hamline Co.
operative store, who told of the
success of the store and of the splen-
did service it had given it's mem
bers. V. S. Petersen, manager of
the Twin City Council of Con-
sumers Co-operatives, outlined the
methods by which the Council is
promoting the cooperative move
ment in general. Thomas Taylor,
official of the Scottish Cooperative
Society, spoke on consumer services
in Scotland.
Highlight of the meeting was the
report of John Banks, chairman of
the financial campaign, who said
that $1,000 of the $4,000 needed to
complete the purchase of the Dia-
mond Food Market had been raised,
1872 of it during the evening; that
$500 as a down payment had been
made, and that negotiations for
the purchase had been closed.
Nevertheless, he stressed the i'm
portance of raising an additional
$1,74O by August 81, in order that
the deal could be completed.
The coop. group plans to open
the store for business, September 4.

first troops to land in the Islands,
received his basic training at Fort
Bragg, N. c., and Camp Stoneman,
California. He said the climate in
the Aleutians is cold with little
sunshine, and works an extreme
hardship on the morale of troops
stationed there. He also stated that
Negro soldiers, on their arrival, did
a lot to encourage and lift the
morale of the other men, but he
added that mail is the one thing
that helps all of the G.I.'s and Off
GERS; it's the only link they have
with home.
On a recuperation furlough, Sgt.
Clark is wearing the Good Conduct
medal and the Asiatic-Pacific cam
paign ribbon with one star. He will
go to Camp La Plauche, La, on
completing his furlough, and his
wife, Mrs. Mae Clark, will accom-
pany him.
