SEES NO SALVATION In
LABOR UNIONS

Continued from page i
the towns fine Consolidated
School Building.
In hisannual Address President
Hume again made known his OPP
position to the growing influence
of the uabor movement among
Negroes. The voice of the Min
intry, he said, should be heard
telling our folk that our salvation
is not in unions. Too many of our
people are deserving the paths of
righteousness. There are cases
where unions may help but are
not a permanent relief for our
happiness and security. Somewhere
in the Holy Book, he said, it is
written, 'look to Me, all we peo-
pies of the earth and be saved"
Referring to the political sit
uation in Mississippi the President
said, Negroes in Mississippi should
go on record n advocating a
strong republican party in Miss
issippi. He is best known by the
Republican Party and is accepted
by the Republican Party. Renew
ing his attack on Perry w Howard,
he said, those who live in other
states and try to dictate the pol
icies of Mississippi should be told,
here and now, ''Where to get off,.
The Committeeman Of the Nat
ional Republican Party has lived
in Washington, d. &C. for the last
25 years, and there has been but
little done to keep the Negroes
ambition alive in the Republican
party.
Speaking with respects to Nat
chez College President Hume said,
On the campus we have a regis
tered hog farm started. We have
done away with the old cows that
have not brought a calf in years,
and bought young heifers. We
have more food conserved than
were raised on our farm land than
In the history of the school. We
have done what we could in the
crises to get our building program
started. We have met one handi-
cap after another because of the
shortage of materials, black mar
ket, and rising cost of material
that kept contractors from bidding

jap Fishing

Japan's interest in fishing was a
natural development in land OF
many islands, surrounded by fish
teeming waters. The people OF the
islands have f1shed along their
shores from time immemorial.
Large-scale and distant operations,
however, have been Of relatively re-
cent growth. In the days Of Japan's
self-imposed isolation, fishermen
were forbidden to leave coastal wa
tiers. It is only within the last half
century or so that the government
has encouraged remote and deep
sea fishing, through subsidies and
other efforts to expand and mod
ernie the industry.
