building inspector warned us not
to sneeze when putting the car
away, unless we had regiment OF

So we are having the garage re-

New American
Legion Post Is
Formed In st. Paul

Wednesday, Jan. %, a group Of
St. Paul World War II vets went
into the American Legion. They
have formed a new post. This or
ganization, the members say, is not
restricted to any one race, creed or
color, but is open to all veterans
who are eligible. Its present men,
bership is interracial.
The temporary organization was
formed in November, by Kenneth
o. Wilson, Orrington Hall, Jr., and
Alexander Jordan, who decided it
was of pertinent value to the re-
turning servicemen to have a vet
Grams organization in our immedi-
ate community" Halle Q. Brown
was the first meeting place. The
purpose Of the group was to
acquaint servicemen with the ex-
isting benefits, such as educational
opportunities, housing opportuni-
ties and general civic matters.
Now in operation is a housing
committee, which is working close
ly with the Mayors Housing Com
mittee of St. Paul.
The vets group has been instru-
mental in placing many veterans in
jobs of their choice.
There are now 70 paid up active
members. The executive commit,
tee consists Of Jordan, temporary
chairman; Hymen Cohen, secre-
tary, Hall, treasurer; Wilson, chair
man of publicity; Ben Tilson, chair
man of the housing committee;
James Coleman, chairman of the
social committee and Andrew
Hartshorn, chairman Of the educa-
tional committee.
No name had been given the new
Legion post at press time. There
is some sentiment for naming it the
Dorie Miller post, in honor Of the
Negro seaman who distinguished
himself at Pearl Harbor.

COLUMBIA, s. C. (NNPA) -
The South Carolina House last
Tuesday defeated bill which would
have abolished the poll tax as a pre-
requisite for voting in this state.
The vote was SO to 40.
Opposition to the repeal measure
was led by Representative Calhoun
Thomas, who charged that abolition
of the levy would serve Ito ram
the Negro down our throats."
He told the House that, through
the medium Of the poll tax and
adroit maneuvering Of election Of.

from voting in our county Of Beau.

Rid State Of Stigma, Scion Asks
Representative Lewis Wallace, Of
York, and J. Claude Fort, Of Che.
rokee, urged passage Of the repeal
bill.
II want to rid my state Of this
stigma" said Wallace, "this thing
that denies a man-white or colored
the right to vote.
"A number Of incompetent people
have held positions representing
South Carolina in Washington by
waving this flag Of racial prejudice
before the people back home, by
stating they are protecting the
state against federal pro-Negro
legislation"
Fort predicted the federal gov
eminent would abolish the poll tax
through congressional action and
that South Carolina should repeal
the vote levy before the federal gov
eminent steps in.
