TO AID THE FEPC
Washington, D. C.-In an effort
to stave off any compromise or legis-
lative trickery, NAACP Secretary
Walter White and Leslie Perry, adj
ministrative assistant in the Wash
ington Bureau, made an about effort
to muster every possible support for
the FEPC appropriation. Cognizant
of the fact that many congressman
friendly to the agency, would be
out Of the city over the July 18th
holiday, wires were sent to each one
advising them that an effort would
be made for restoration Of funds on
the floor Of the House, and urged
them to be present to support every
such move.
Because there is no other way for
Negro and liberal groups to know
definitely who are the friends of
FEPC, the NAACP is attempting to
get the legislative proponents Of the
appropriation to move to secure a
record vote so that the agency's
enemies will be forced to face their
constituents.
The Washington Bureau NAACP
kept in constant touch by long dis
lance telephone calls, with larger
NAACP branches and state confer
ences urging them to flood congress-
mems desks with wires and messages
demanding support for FEPC.
The wire to NAACP officers read:
"FEPC appropriation expected to
reach House floor July 5. Many con-
gressmen friendly to agency will be
out of city. Imperative you wire i'm
.ediately all congressman at their
state address urging they be on floor
and that they support
every effort to restore appropriation.

TRANSPORT RISE

Total volume of freight and pas-

carriers has shown a steady expan-
sion during the war period, rising in

Airplane transportation showed
the greatest increase during this
period. rising 421.4 per cent. While
railroad traffic increased 171.4 per
cent; pipelines. 1877 per cent; mo-

word, you and l and most people
are fed up with war, We want
peace-today. tomorrow, forever
We want 10 live at peace with all
the world-not only with those

whom We dislike. In civil law, We
have 10 be as Just to those whom
we abhor as to those whom We

So, as we read this yoluminous
document. the San Francisco Char
ter. we should not ask ourselves
whether we love England and Rus

tine. whether We have confidence
In Stettinius, Vandenberg and Stas'
sen or lack OF confidence in them
but whether the Charter will In
crease the prospects OF peace, OF y

Those who believe that the Char
ter will accomplish that objective
should be for II. Those who feel
that il will make for war should
oppose II. Peace should be the sole
yardstick as to the usefulness or
this document.
Before and during the conference.
It was proper TO criticize every

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

J.F.:-For the past year l have
been under treatment for lumbago.
What could cause this condition!
Answer: - Lumbago merely
means pain in the back. Such pains
may come from a variety Of dis
orders, such as arthritis Of the
spine, Inflammation Of the muscles,
nerve disturbances, faulty posture
and disorders within the abdomen.
A complete study by an orthopedie
specialist would be helpful in de-
termining the cause Of the trouble.
Then it can be properly treated.
