1t is time for far-reaching plans and for hard and
constructive work to put those plans into effect.
1t is time for men who are willing to lead and to
take responsibility, who will put the interests Of
their fellow men before their own personal ambi-
tons. The Parliament of Man does not select any
one group-it is ALL men, no matter what their
race or creed or nationality or occupation.
Neither as individuals or as a nation will it be
possible for us to stand aside and keep out of the
stream of traffic. In a world that is daily growing
smaller, we canot avoid being affected by what hap
pens to our neighbors.
Freedom is responsibility. Freedom must be
earned by each man in his own way. No one can
shirk his responsibility. No one can work by or for
himself alone.
The first task before us is to lay the social, polit-
ical and economic foundations of peace. That can
be done only by each man and each nation doing his
or its share. In a world which has become Zone

NEGRO HAS TO GO FROM D. C.
TO NEW YORK TO BUY SHOES

Last week [ met and talked with a friend who
had come to New York from Washington, DC,
where he lives. Ip Washington he is known far
and wide as one of our best educated persons and
also as a leader of national renown.
His writings are fearless and militant and appear
in many Of the big magazines, newspapers, and per
iodicals.
He is answering in his views on the race prob
lem and believes most sincerely that the key to the
Negro problem here in America is through universal
education of all Negroes.
He wants every Negro to hold a Phi Beta Kappa
Key OF to be in a position where it can be had by
reaching and taking it.
He wouldn't move away from Washington for
anything. Like the New Yorker swears by Goth
am, the Chicagoan by the Windy City, and the De
troiter by the Motor City, he swears by Washing
ton and wonders why anyone would like to live else
where.

FIGHT ON!

January 30 is the birthday of a great American,
our wartime President, the late Franklin D.. Roose-
welt.
Shortly after entering the White House, almost
13 years ago, Nh. Roosevelt set aside his birthday
for a nationwide appeal to support an organized
campaign against infantile paralysis. None knew
better than he the devastating effects Of this dis
ease. He was one of it's victims; he fought it val
iantly, and continued to fight it throughout the
rest Of his life-for others.
He did not live to see ultimate victory in the war
which he inaugurater against %infantile paralysis in
America and unified by founding the National Foun
datiOn for ~Infantile Paralysis. It remains for us
to carry on the fight without that gallant leader.
The Enemy is still strong. During the past year,
more than $4,000 enw sases of polio were reported
IN this country. The war against infantile paraly-
SIS cannot end until this derad disease is finally
wiped out.
Let US carry on the fght-to the finish!

LIBERIA, HAITI HAVE NOT
SIGNED BRETON WOODS PACT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9 (ANP)
Liberia and Haiti are included
among the nine nations which with
Russia, have failed to become "ori-
ginal signers" of the Breton Woods
agreement, the deadline for such
signers having passed a few days
ago.
Forty-four nations, including
those name above, ratified the orr
ginal agreement and signified their
intention of signing, but when the
time came for the actual signing,
line nations stayed out of the fold.
Each of the nations was assigned
a quota to be paid into the "bank"
which would total over nine billion
dollars. They paid this sum when
they signed the pact. However, any
member who has not signed and
paid to date may become a member
of the international organization by
paying the allotted quota subscrip-
tion and signing the agreement.

announcement. Hastie's appoint
ment will be forwarded to the SEN
ate for confirmation on Jan. IA and
