of course some mention must be
made of the land-office success of
Paul Robeson's "Othello" which was
sold out way before the start of its
three-week engagement. Makes

girls, saw it in the studio projec-

me, the action is so tense you forget
your craving to see him in one of

that the Hollywood Actors Lab is
getting ready to produce "The Tam
ing of the Shrew" with Rex Ingram

hear they're seeking studio ap-

nix, the juicy role will probably fall
in the lap of Nina Mae Mckinney.

st. Panl in that division. Atkinson,
who has come along under the

THE Able WALLACE SERVICE

M. c.: want to know if this young man
feels serious toward me, or if he is lust
playing along with my emotions for his
own entertainment? This is important to
me as I don't want to go out of bounds
around.
Ans: You can't afford to 20 out of
bounds with a man whether serious or
otherwise. The majority of love affairs
are begun solely as an amusement, never
giving thought to their becoming serious.
But a girl can't take chances and play
around if she is to keep a good reputation,
Keep your friends at q safe distance and
in that way you will not become involved
in anything that may cause you grief later
on.
L. E.: am girl of 10, my problem is
this: ITO kiss or not to kiss ?' I have
been taking company three years and still
can't find the right answer. My parents
don't approve of a girl kissing unless
they're engaged: Some of my girl friends
say that if I don't, I won't have a boy
friend. Others say, the boys don't really
mean it, they are just trying me out to
see if will or not have quit most of
my boy friends because of this problem.
Every time one brings me home, he wants
to squeeze and kiss me good night. When
would refuse, he would ask, why not
The other girls do. If you say it's right,
I'm willing to kiss the boy friend have
now. I think he's the right one because
he's waiting patiently.
Ans: A good night kiss shouldn't be
damaging If IL isn't carried to the ex-
IRENE. But once it becomes q habit your
reputation is at stake. The girl who IL a
little stinRy with her kisses and keeps
herself master of the situation Is the one
all the boys run after and seek ont Pro-
miscuOus kissing should never be INDUCED
in. The mystery that surrounds a 9irI
who keeps a boy guessing is far more tan
talizing than giving in to every within his
fancy dictates. My suggestion Is that Won
be conservative and have no reason for
regrets later on.

II. M: have a serious matter confront
ing me: 1 am mother of two children.
married man some time ago and he
DOESN'T know that am the mother of these
children. Should I tell him now or should
l let him find it out some other way? What
will the children think when they know
about him? Please tell me what to do be-
cause am getting worried.
Ans: The only way for you to relieve
your mind is to confess to your husband
that you are the mother of these two chill
dren. A detailed confession may not be
necessary but your husband does have a
right to know about these children and
should have known it before your marriage
to him. If you allow this matter to rock
along, eventually he will find it out from
other sources and you will stand a grave
chance Of losing him altogether. This prob
lem will have to be handled if all three
are mutually cOngenial. Break the news
to your husband first 20 to the children
and tell them Of their new step-father

M. M. r: am a reader of your column.
l am thinking of making a trip to Cali
tornia just for a visit. I plan to be gone
or weeks and it seems like feel afraid
to go. Must go?
Ans: No pleasure trip should be made
right at this critical period. Travelling
facilities are all over-erowded and trims
which ordinarily would be pleasant to make
become a burden. Unless your trip is alb
solutely necessary, put 1t Of for the dura-
ton.
G. M. s.: This is my first time writing
you. want you to help me. A married
man here says that he loves me and wants
me to see him. I am single I am afraid
to take chances with him because feel that
might fall for him. Do you think he
means good?
Ans: His one and only thought is to
crafty his own selfish desires. All that
he has to offer you is a few paItry gifts
and an Illicit companionship, as he can
not afford to be seen in your company.
Never degrade yourself by accepting the
attentions of a married man as II will
invariably ruin your chances for finding the
happiness that is due you as the wife of
some eligible man.

FEPC Holds Hearings
In Negro-less Town

WASHINGTON, d. g. (NNPA)
The little town of East Alton,
ILL.,, has a town ordinance prohibit
ing Negroes living there. It has
been so since the East st. Louis
race riot of many years ago. The
town philosophy was that there
would be no trouble so long as
there were no Negroes.
But along has come the war-a
war against race supremist theories
an all-out war requiring the maxi
mum use of every talent of every
American.
East Alton joined in the war eff
fort. The Western Cartridge Com
pany of that town got loads of gov
eminent contracts. 1t needed more
and more men. Orders for men
were placed with the United States
Employment Service of the War
Manpower Commission. Applicants
were referred for the jobs-among
whom were some Negroes.
But Western Cartridge and East
Alton were not that much in the
war. They refused to hire the Ne
groes referred, solely on account
of their race.
The matter was reported to the
Presidents Committee on Fair EN-
ployment Practice (FEPC). Fail
ing to get any adjustment of the
case, the FEPC decided to hold
hearings on the company practice
of discrimination. The date is Jan.
81.
At first the FEPC was going to
hold the hearings in Alton, ILL.,, a
larger and more American town,
where Negroes do live. A Western
Cartridge official, however, is
known to have visited the FEPC in
Washington and insisted that the
hearings be held in East Alton so
the committee members could see
first hand the community attitudes
with which the company has to con-
tend. It is one of it's defenses.
So, Malcolm Ross, chairman of
the FEPC, Mrs. Sara SouthaIl and
Milton Webster will sit in the
hearings. Maceo Hubbard, FEPC
attorney, will handle the case be-
fore the 3-man (woman) board.
Webster and Hubbard are Negroes.
1t ought to be very interesting!

Truck farmers are uneasy and
alarmed, even the hardest of their

are to survive winter weather.
