War and Peace

Seems to me there's the problem
in a nutshell! No plan in the world
can lead to peace-'til folks re-
spect each others views; allow for
differences Of taste; and learn to
live with opposite opinions.
From where sit, real peace
begins with people neighbOr liv-
ing toIeTGntly beside neighbor -
regardless of who votes how, Or
who drinks beer or cider, or who
wears city clothes or overalls.
Peace starts with Tolerance!

Then proceed to darn through the

himself a construction engineer,
touched the match which may set
off a congressional investigation into
the lobbying activities Of power and
other interests seeking to defeat the
regional authority measures for
public control of the Missouri,
Columbia and other river basins.
The young Washington congress
man minced no words when he
called upon the congress to insti-
tute an investigation ''of the ex-
penditures and Of the corrupt prac-
tees" of the organizations lobbying
against passage Of these measures
seeking to harness the rivers under
congressional grants Of regional au-
thorities.
Last fall this writer told you Of
the formation of one Of the most
powerful Hobbies in Washington s
legislative history to defeat the Muir
ray Missouri Valley authority bill
and companion bills, which include
the Columbia River Valley authority
measure.
Now the lobby has been dragged
onto the floor Of congress and un-
clOaked for all to see as "the
largest lobby of its kind in all pow

Alnvets Ask Klan Expulsion

SPRINGFIELD, Sept. 30-The AMVETS, huge organization of veterans of World War II, met in their second annual convention here this week and roundly scored the un-American action of the Ku Klux Klan and similar subversive groups. The body adopted reso- lution calling for the expulsion and outlawing of the Klan and it's counterparts.
 The AMVETS expressed bitter dissatisfaction with what was de- scribed as the bIundering lack of real leadership in the present government, and called for the un- qualified postponement of action on the atomic bomb until some of the aims of the United Nations could be clarified.
 The veterans also assailed the present meat crisis and called for a special session of Congress to cope with the problem.

Boston, Mass. (SpeciaD .

Boston, Mass. (SpeciaD
 An announcement of unusual importance was made from the headquarters of the Democratic State Committee this week when Dr. Silas F. (Shag) Taylor was notified of his appointment two weeks ago to take charge of ac- tivities among colored voters of the state in the current cam paign.
 by John F. Cahill, veteran leader of the Party's affairs in this section.
 !, The appointment had been ex- pected by some leaders for some time; it was felt for the first time however, that it had been made as a result of such a unani- nous agreement among other leaders of the Party as to the selection of colored appointee.
 According to MT. Cahill, the appointment is an acknowledg- ment of the abilities of Dr. Tay- Tor to coordinate the many di- verse factors involved in this cam paign and to deliver a victorious vote for the Democratic candi- dates, and a tribute to his many years of past loyalty Che is the oldest outstanding colored Demo- crat in a position of leadership in Massachusetts). During these years he has been an office-hold- CT, member of the electoral col lege and several times executive on the State setup.
 The letter of appointment fol- lows:
 Dear Doctor Taylor:
 "You are hereby appointed and authorized to take charge of the activities of the colored Democra- tic group in this Commonwealth for the current campaign.

New Haven, Conn. - Bare-faced racial discrimination reared it's ugly head here in New Haven this week when a member of the local Varick AME Zion Church turned over to the Rev. Richard A. G. Foster, alderman from the 18th ward, an offensive advertising let ter form received through the mail from the Lake Shore Company of East Haddam, Connecticut.
 The Lake Shore Company, de- velopers of suburban and water front properties, describes at some length the topography, beauty and advantages of their Moodus Lake Shores resort project, currently under development. In glowing terms it takes a bow as offering in the "letter to prospect form of advertising, a method of con tact superior to either newspaper or radio advertising. The reader learns that an allotment has been conveniently set aside for him. Utopia at long last, at least for nearly four paragraphs. Only one teensy-weensy condition is re- l quired. Stated in it's own words, "This summer colony is restricted to the Caucasian race"
 Obviously this advertising letter form was never intended to fall into the hands of prospective Ne gro buyers. The company accord ! ing to it's letter-heads has similar projects in Manassas, Va, Tolches-

the NAACP to let it's eager mass of members participate in this great effort was but another evil dence of the most childish, the most foolhardy, and the most vii ciously-salbotaging policy that some of the leadership of the body has foisted off upon a great or ganization: a relentless policy of asinine red-baiting that more than once since the Scottsboro fight has weakened and twisted the Associa- tion's most far-reaching efforts.
 No Guesswork Here
 The silly red-baiting program within the NAACP leadership is not matter of hearsay; it is not something that someone has thought up and is now trying to prove. It began, if not before, dur ing the Scottsboro days. It was one of the most evident factors in the work, after the Detroit riot. It cropped up again, more viciously. in the entire NAACP approach to Labor and particularly the CIO = during the. critical early war days. It caused one high placed official of the organization to remark, concerning the last Bos- ton election, that "We'H lose the Boston Branch rather than have Communists in it." It was the chief point in the dfsgraceful New York Youth Council election early this year, and even the fattering blan- dishments of the news stories could not cover up it's appearance at the recent Cincinnati conven- tion of the Association. During the earliest days of the Columbia case 1t came within inches of disruptfng the whole united peoples fight against the lyncf1ers of Tennessee. When the efforts of Mrs. Roose- welt and a few other level-heade tmomentarily silenced it, I'll be dog-goned if it didn't crop up AGAIN, and WORSE, at the very next meeting of leaders interested in Columbia.
 This Is No Time, For Play
 Now this is no time for playing around, either with irresponsible individuals or with large organi- cations. If Walter White, and the few board members in New York for whom he speaks, want to dis like Communists, if they want to square off and box with them on the Harlem streets, that is cer- tainly their American democratic right, subject only to the fistic abilities of the Communists so boxed. But fights of minorities are not to be jeopardized by stupid. purposeless disunity, especially a disunity as ill-founded as any cam paign against Communist organi- zations by a Negro group working for the identical things the Con- munists are striving to propagate As I say, there is a possibility that red-baiting is NOT behind the Washington action of the MA ACP; in the absence of full and frank statement of what WAS be- hind it, however, the red-baiting looms as the most logical explana- ton. And in these times, the Ne gro people, and the whole forward looking front of Americans, can't afford it. We just can't afford it.
