minesweeper USS Adams which
was recently at Shanghai, China.
The Adams first saw action at
Okinawa where she was under at

attack she shot down six, and
probably two more, Of II Kami-

nearby and did considerable dam

of Negro life elsewhere in the United States and abroad?" Is there any valid reason for the conspiracy of silence against one of the founders of the Niagara movement from which sprang the NAACP?
 The author masterfully traces the early life of MT. Trotter and attempts to give an insight into the emotions and aims of the Guardian's founder who started the paper in the same place where William Lloyd Garrison had published "The Liberator,' D where the first edition of 'Uncle Toms Cabin had come off the press, and who thereby received the Inspiration to battle against the undoing of the results of their efforts"
 Just why did Trotter forsake the life of an easy-going intellec- tual for a career as a journalist and race leader? The answer may be found in MT. Trotter's own words: f'The convection grew on me that pursuit of busi- ness, money, civic, or literary po- sition was like building a house upon the sands, if race prejudice and persecution and public discrimination for mere color was to spread up from the South and result in fixed cast of color. It would mean that, how ever native and to the manner born, every colored American would be a civil outcast, forever, an alien in the public life.

person to decide what is wrong with a sick person. The patient may be sure he recognizes the symptoms of an attack of malaria,
 but other diseases announce themselves in the same way. If the doctor says it is malaria, then the patient must go to bed and follow his orders. At this time, he needs patience and under standing from his family. Ano- ther attack of malaria is a de- pressing experience for one who hoped he would never have it again.
 To protect the patient from future attacks, as far as possible, see that he keeps himself in top physical condition. Sleep, good food and fresh air are required worry, overwork, late hours, end heavy drinking must be avoided. He should take no drugs of any kind except on the advice of his physician. It should be emphasized that there is no reason why person who has had malaria should not live a per fectly normal life.
 You cannot "catch'' malaria from a person by ordinary con- tact. To prevent the spread of the disease, the mosquito which carries 1t must be destroyed.
 In the next article, treating TB early will be discussed.

William Monroe Trotter Fight CT William E. Harrison (Phy- lon)
 As the objective reader peru ses the pages of MT. Harrison's excellent analytical article on' the leader who possessed an annual breadth of vision, there will arise in his mind several troubling question. He will wonder just what is the reward of a race lea der who is able to envision the implications, national and inter national, of racial discrimination 1; who is not satisfied with the life of a silent member of the Ne gro intellectual hierarchy; who has no qualms about the social staint' which is incurred from on a picket line de- manding equal rights and op- portunities; and who possesses the courage of his conviction to such an extent as to lead dele gations to national and interna- tional capitals. Will the future of his name warrant an conspiracy of silence because his ideas don't coincide with our own? Will there be petty jealousy because he didn't go to our college?
 The case in point is that of William Monroe Trotter, whose own city, Boston, 'has singularly to establish any suit able :commemoration of the greatest Negro citizen in her history" Why hasn't one of. our historians started a biography of the life of man" whose ideas are still highly controversial, not only in Boston, but in all areas

MUST MALARIA REcUR7

Families of persons who have
 suffered from malaria hear SC
 many rurfors about recurring at.
 lacks that they often build up nnnecessary worry about g di- sease which, if properly treated, does the patient no permanent harm. If someone in your fami- ly has had malaria, you owe it to yourself and to him to know the facts.
 Along with tropic moons, wav- ing palms and Japs, the we'll ad- vertised Pacific isles introduced our servcemen to the Anopha1es mosquito, the carrier of malaria. Tn the past the disease was preva- lent mainly in the southern part of the United States. But with the return of many of our fight ing men, carrying the malarial parasites in their bodies, we may expect it to become a problem in many sections, of the country 1T proper measures are noL IAken.
 There are several varieties of the disease. One which used to be the most serious can now be completely cured with good care during the first attack. The most common is the recurring type. Symptoms of an attack are chills and fever, headache and back ache, weakness, dizziness and nausea. The attacks become mill der each time and disappear with in three years, usually sooner un- der proper treatment. Quinine and atabrine are used to treat the symptoms of discomfort. Alta brine causes the skin and eyes to take on yellowish tinge which wears off within a few weeks af- ter the drug is discontinued.
 At worst, an attack of malaria will keep person in bed for a short time. He may feel weak and washed out for while -af- forwards. Families should re- member that a doctor is the best

O SNs
 Hats off to the excellent car toon appearing in Saturday, Oc- tober twelfth issue of the Chro- nicle. Much was expressed in the fourteen words accompany ing the cartoon. No, there will ne- yer be any peace in this old world until these shackles of ex- ploitation and economic slavery are broken and also the shackles of race hatred which not only the colored people are subjected to but the Jews as well. Some peo- pie have an illusion believing that prayer alone will move these ob- stacles and impediments which we are confronted with but if we persist in that belief we are in for a terrible disappointment. The Bible says, "Resist the Devil and he will flee away from you," which means to fight fire with fire. There is an old adage which says, "God helps those who helps themselves" and that is a fact if there ever was one. Some times we feet thatwe are alone and on our own, that may be true to a cer- tain extent but we know that we have many stalwart friends scattered throughout the length and breadth of our land helping us to carry on this crusade against these abominations.

My vocation has been to wage crusade against lynching, disenfranchisement, pe- onage, public segregation, injus- tice, denial of service in public places for color, in war time and in peace"
 That Trotter was no idealist is to be evinced from the facts that he was outspoken on all na- tional issues - the Brownsville, Texas incident, the 'fClansmen'' (191O) and the Birth of a Ma tion" (1915), segregation of off, cer candidates at Des Moines, Iowa during World War I, the Houston prisoners case (1924), the :Scottsboro case (193D. He also 'sdesired all mankind to view the Negro question in the United States thru powerful len ses afforded by an American Ne gro spokeman," and under the guise of cook journeyed to Flu rope, later filing severay petitions with the Versailles Peace Confe- renee.
 In presenting MT. Trotter in light of a national and ,interna- tional figure who realized that oppressed people in Europe had burden not unlike that of the American Negro, MT. Harrison has written an article which should serve as a guide to pre- sent Negro leaders through out the country in the battle for the Negro.

The Living South
By Harold Preece

Morris Weaver.
 Now, you can't imagine any
 two more different types of per
 sonality than Mike Ross and
 z. Alexander Looby. Mike is a slim little fellow, not much big
 ger than your two fists, talkative
 and a firebrand. Attorney Looby
 is as tall as Abe Lincoln, reserved,
 and inclined to weigh each word ,, before he says it.
 PERSONALITY VS: PERFOR- NANCE
 But differences in personality
 shouldn't mean too much to us
 any more than should differences of color. Too many of us down %here have been sold by demago- gues like s'Pappy" O. Daniel into believing that the only type of personality worth having is the hail fellow, well-met kind. When we have a decent South, we won't judge man any more by his per sonality characteristics than we'll judge him by his color. We'll judge him by what he contributes to the common good of all our people: whatever their race or religion.
 To me, the significant thing is that I met each of these two out standing Southerners at time when each was carrying on some battle for the South's people of both colors. ...
 first knew Mike Ross when he was a leader at 18 of the old movement of unemployed and re- lief workers in Dallas, his home town. Years later, our acquain- tance was renewed when he held spellbound for an hour - Mike is a natural born Southern orator -an audience of New York Jew ish workers who had turned out for a big meeting in the Bronx to help us Southerners get rid of the poll tax. That audience cheered Mike for ten minutes af- ter he had wound up his talk which included 8 fine and elo- quent tribute to the last Southern Negro congressman, George White of North Carolina.
 first met z. Alexander Looby when he had placed in the run eff for seat on the Nashville city council, back in 1943. At that time, I was working as correspondent for the Peoples Voice, then edited by l another Texan who is my good friend, Thyra Edwards. MT. Looby would have won in the final election if the new city | charter had not rigged up cleo tions in advance to keep a Ne gro from winning seat on the of Tennessee's capital city. We had a fineirrvisit toge- ther, and he told me the story of the successful suit which he had instituted with the NAACP to get equal pay for Nashville Ne gro teachers.
 We'll, the point that want to make is just this: Negro workers respect the ieadershop of Mike Ross in Macon; Nashville's libe- ral white citizen respect the lea iership of Attorney Looby in that town and dozens of them were proud to cast their vote for him.
 Which means, I think, that we are going a long toward esta- olishing a strong and much nee led liberal inter-racial leadership % get us all out from under the oollcats.

TWO SOUTHERN DEMOCRATS
 Copyright, 1886, by New South

(Copyright, 1896, by New South Features)
 If I were called upon to nomi-
 nate today's most outstanding
 Southerner, I'd be hard put to de- eide between a white man whom
 I know and a colored man whom
 I know.
 Yes, sir, I'd just have to split
 vote between Mike Ross,
 white CIO organizer in Macon,
 Ga., and z. Alexander Looby,
 Negro lawyer of Nashville, Tenn.
 You see, both are men of equal
 courage and both deserve equal
 honors.
 know Mike Ross intimately since he sprouted up in my home state of Texas. I've only met MT. Looby once or twice but the way he has been handling the Columbia, Tenn, trials shows that he's a man who's going to go down in history with Frederick Douglass as one Negro who can't be scared by a dressed-up white mob of judges and lawyers. That South which is becoming honors them both because they are help ing to give the finishing touches to that South which is dying.
 And in the struggle for the new South, the champions of the people will increasingly be men and women of all creeds and both colors. The champions will know each other, will fight the same battles on the same battle grounds because freedom has no Jim Crow sign on the door.
 I imagine that Mike Ross and 2. Alexander Looby already know each other and respect each other whether or not they have met personally. Down here, and I'm proud to say it, the pro- gressives of both colors are pret- ty much like one big scattered family. We know of each other and feel for each other over this whole big quarter of the nation that is Dixie. We help each other out and generally work to- gether even when we have to do it by correspondence.
 I'm sure that z. Alexander Looby felt for Mike Ross when Klansmen broke into Mikes home at Macon, a few weeks back, intimidating his wife and baby, trying to find out where Mike was in order that they could take him out and kill him. 1 I'll bet that Attorney Looby said to himself, aThere's a man," when he read how Mike had gone ! to a public meeting of both races, the next night, denounced the mayor of Macon for his anti-la- Dor and anti-Negro tie-ups and then demanded the passage of a federal anti-lynching bill to pu- nish the Klansmen who murdered four Negroes down at Monroe, za., on July 25.
 Pm sure that Mike Ross had ;ome mighty complimentary :hings to say about MT. Looby when he read in the papers of low the Negro lawyer is stand ng up for the brave men of Co., umbia being tried down at Law 'enceburg, one of the most pre- udiced towns in Tennessee. And Mike was probably thinking Ilso that it was 8 sign of the | New South a-coming that MT. ,ooby is being assisted not only y another Negro lawyer, Dr. ,eon Ransom, but also by a white Chattanooga attorney, |
