ENGINEERS IN MANILA
COMMEND RED CROSS
AID IN X

MANILA-The Negro stated
American Red Cross Pasay Club
has received a letter of common
dation from the 9th Engineers
Service Battalion for services that
organization rendered troops dur
ing a recent typhoon threat.
The commentator reads in part
This organization wishes to ex-
press its thanks and appreciation
for the very fine way in which the
Pasay Red Cross Club helped to
accomplish a very difficult mis-
sion assigned this unit.
This organization was assigned
the task of guarding the pipe line
along the e wall on Dewey Blvd.
to prevent a possible break-thru
in case the typhoon struck. About
$50 men had to be rushed there
during the night to fill sand bags
and place them around the pipes
for support. Many had to leave
their evening meal and all were
drenched to the skin in the heavy
dOwnpour of rain.
The Pasay Club throughout the
night furnished hot coffee and
cakes which were greatly appre-
ciated by te men and did much
to make the job easier.

REPORTS FROM THE
NEBRASKA SAFETY PATROL

Warning that highway accidents
go up as the temperature goes
down Captain G. J. Sanders of the
Nebraska State Safety Patrol ur-
ged Friday that auto owners and
truck fleet operators prepare now
for safe winter driving.
In addition to all other accidents
there were nearly 1000 accidents
recorded in the state during Ne
braska's mild winter last year
that could be attributed to icy or
snowy roads Sanders said and 13
deaths from accidents under those
conditions.
Drivers must recognize the add
ed hazards which make safe win
ter driving difficults he continued.
Stop and go traction is greatly
reduced on snow or ice with either
new or old tire treads. Synthetic
rubber tires now about equal to
natural rubber for wear and for
stopping on dry pavement, do not
provide as good traction on snow
and ice as did prewar natura,
rubber.
Visibility is cut down by frost
or snow on windshields and cal
windows and by the longer hours
of darkness.
Sanders urged vehicle owners tt
check brakes, tire chains, wind.

and even the exhaust.
Some of these winter safety nee

Govt Gets $500, 900
From Liquor Sale

OMAHA-The State of Wyom-
ing was n of eight states hav-
ing liquor control systems which
brought about 100000 quarts of
surplus medicinal whiskey, the
Omaha War Assets Administra-
ton announced today. The govern
ment received about $500, 900 on
the sale.
The state of Iowa was one Of
nine states declining purchase of
the whiskey, which was offered
to all IL monopoly" states.
The whiskey, originally packed
for export to the armed forces,
was allocated by WAA regional
offices to monopoly states near
est the stocks on hand.
Disposal Of the liquor (bourbon
and rye) was complicated by the
expert labelling of the bottles. The
bottles e labeled bond and SO
proof but for domestic consump-
ton, federal regulations require
that whiskey labeled bond must
be 100 proof, which is approx
mately so percent alcohol. The
eight states which purchased the
whiskey must rebottle and rela-
! bel the whiskey as well as paw

SOLVED MINORITY PROBLEM

dismissed from the party.
More important than any of the
measures is the use of education
and propaganda to encourage I'M
derstanding between groups in the
Soviet Union. In the schools, in
trade unions, in the cultural ac-
tivities throughout the nation, care
is taken to set forth what each
ethnic and nationality group has
contributed to the growth of the
Russian people and to the devel-
opment of mankind. Media Of
Mass education, sometimes called
instruments of propaganda, have
been enlisted to spread the facts
and create a receptive frame of
mind.
Russia has shown the world
that group prejudices and conflict
can be modified. Its success sug-
gests the instruments which a
achieve results. The methods of
capitalism and our form of demo-
cracy differ from those of the So
Wet Union, but in Russia's hand
ling of minority problems we can
find valuable meteorological tools
tools which are equally apple
able to u society but which will
require refinement and redirec-
ton.

Rights Imply
Responsibilities
BY Ruth Taylor

The Bill of Rights is a favorite
topic with all American speakers. =.
no matter what their viewpoint or
their politics. 1t is the one surefire
hit.
We all BELIEVE in the prin-
ciples embodied in the Bill Of
Rights. W. proclaim it as the
foundation stone of our democracy
We brag of its insurance Of our
liberties as we wave the flag. We
flaunt its great phrases in the
faces of our enemies.
But-do we LIVE Up to the i'd
eals it embodies? Do we carry
out in our national, in our COM
munity, in u personal life its
great teachings?
We emphasize the equality be-
fore the law for which it stands
We say we oppose discrimination
that this is the abhorant idea of
tn so-called master race. But
are we free from the faint of dis
elimination? How do we judge
u neighbors? Bigotry and into
lerance can be allowed no place
in own lives, if we would be
true to our own heritage and des-
tiny.
The people have, through the
Bill of Rights, the inalienable right
to the furthering by the State of
equality of opportunity. But they
have it not merely as a State CIV
en- right, but as a God given one.
Freedom from discrimination is a
spiritual as well as a material
condition for human development.
This does not mean that all peo-
pie must have equal amounts of
everything-but it does mean that
they must have an equal oppor-
tunity to develop their talents, to
do profitable and worthwhile work
without being -hampered by dis
examinations based upon anything
other than their ability and their
willingness to work with their fell
low-men.
The only way we a defend our
liberties is to see to it that the
law is administered impartially
and equally to all the people Of
the country. The pledge to our
flag makes this clear.
Il pledge allegiance to the flag
Of the United States of America
and to the Republic for which it
stands, one nation indivisible, with
liberty and justice for all".
The last two words-'for all"-
are the ssence Of the Bill of
RightsLbut before we brag too
much about them. let us do a little
soul-searching and see if we live
up to them in our own lives.
Rights imply responsibilities!

Edito-s no.e. Or. Robert c. Wea-
yer. VINO wrote the folIowi7 ar
ticIe. is TIE director of the Com
munitv Services Division Of the
American Council. He has Just re-
turned 70 his duties after a six
months leave which took him to
Russia as a member Of an UNNRA
team whose mission was TO study
the economic rehabilitation OF the
Ukraine.
II ! ever had any doubts that
minority problems car be solved
my recent trip 10 Russia dispelled
them.
The Soviet Union which was rife
with anti-Semitism and national
hatreds before the revolution, is
today relatively free from inter
group tensions. Conflicts between
these groups are unknown. and
the man in the street in Russia
cannot understand how the Uni
ted States can claim to be a de-
mocratic nation and still perse-
cute it's darker citizens. To the
Soviet citizen, it seems much more
logical and fair to liquidate an
enemy of the state than to deny
a black man equal rights because
of the color of his skin.
The Soviet Union has solved its
minority problems by legislative.
economic and educative action.
Expressions Of nationality or ra-
cial chauvism r punishable by
law, and / was told of the appli-
cation of that law. A Negro news
paper man in Moscow told me
that once when he was riding on
a train from Moscow to Stain
grad, several Americans, who were
assigned space in his compart-
ment. objected loudly to his pre-
sence. Despite the fact that these
Americans were engineers, and
vital TO the industrial development
of the Soviet Union, they were
promptly removed from the train
and arrested.
But it is not by law alone that
the job of generating appreciation
for the differences in the peoples
who make up Russia has been ach-
ieved. Existence Of full employ
ment and the presence of an Ella
borate system of social security
have removed the economic eau
e for the intergroup tensions
and rivalries. Studied action to
include all ethnic and nationality
groups in the affairs of the ma
ton have put a visable stamp of
official approval upon equality Of
opportunity. And the Communist
party, which is the professional
leadership Of the nation. has not
compromised with prejudice. Any
member guilty of racial or nation
atty chauvinism is summaril,
