1T is THE OPINION

OF this writer that the most Sc
rious errors effecting present short
ages lie with the congress and the
executive branch OF our govern
nent. Hamstrung by congressional
directives the OPA has fronted Tor
congress and the president for a
long. long time. We all know
this is an inflationary period and
prices much higher than those oil
the pre-war days are here to stay
Price increases have been voted TO
thousands OF manufacturers ana
rTceessors. A little more common
sense in the granting of increases
where uncontrolled source costs
exist would make meat plentiful.
And every darned member of con
gress knows IL too.

FLORENCE, S. c.. Sept. IA
railway station melee in which mill
tary police were reported to have
swung their blackjacks freely landed
1875 colored soldiers in civilian jails
here on charges of "disorderly con-
duct, resisting arrest and interfer-
ing with an officer"
Police Chief J. A. Price said the
soldiers, most of them Just back
from overseas. charged six military
policemen last night in an attempt
to free five of their number arrested
on a troop train for disorderly con-
duct.
The soldiers, with whom the MPs
were travelling, left the train in the
wake of the MPs and the five under
arrest, and after a brief consulta-
ton among themselves, charged the
smaller group, Mr.. Price said.
The MPs, Chief Price added,
began welding blackjacks to ward
off the soldiers. Several men were
knocked down but no one was hurt
seriously, the police chief said, be-
fore the MPs brought the situation
under control by summoning ci-
william peace officers armed with
riot guns.
1t was not necessary to use the
guns as the disturbance subsidized
about the time the policemen car
rying them arrived, Chief Price re-
ported.
The unruly soldiers, he said, then
finally were lined up and marched
single file through the streets in
an orderly procession for about a
mile to two separate jails to await
a hearing before the city recorder.
1t was four hours after the trouble
began before all the soldiers were
booked and in cells. Chief Price
said railway police aided in handling
the soldiers
Many of the soldiers already had
received their discharge papers and

READERS DIGEST ARTICLE
Halls NEGRO ACRICULTURIST

The leadership of Otis Samuel
O'Neil, one of the first Negro
county farm agents brought agri-
cultural prosperity to two poverty
ridden counties in Georgia. Hailed
as "the South's outstanding Negro
citizen today" Otis O'Neil and
his achievements are the subject
of an article by o. K. Armstrong
in The Readers Digest for Nov
ember.
The Digest article, condensed
from The Progressive, tells how
O'Neil brought himself from penni-
less obscurity to the position he
occupies today. Both his parents
had been born in slavery; O'Neil
himself worked his way through
Tuskegee Institute, where Profess
sor George Washington Carver
became his inspiration. Upon his
appointment as farm agent for
Houston and Peach counties, o.
Neil found everywhere rank pow
erty from the one-crop system"
with sharecroppers paid a pittance
for their years work in the cot
ton fields.
O'Neil taught the farmers to
diversity their crops rather than
depend on cotton alone. He found
idle land which tenant farmers
could buy, and arranged loans for
them. He organized his tertiary
into communities with a "key
farmer" as leader of each
The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1946-11-13

To-day" the Digest article
says, "in O'Neil territory you see
painted houses, improved roads,
and highgrade cattle. You hear
boys talking about their calf
clubs, and girls about their chick
ems and egg-laying contest"
Home ownership among the rural
colored families has climbed from
s per cent to 60 percent in the
80 years of ONeil agricultural
guidance
O'Neils annual Ham and Egg
Show" in which farmers in his
territory exhibit their livestock
and produce, has become one of
the best-known agricultural ex-
positions in the South, the author
states. Twelve other Georgias
counties, following O'Neil's lead,
hold farm shows for Negro fam
lilies each year.
In 1887, O'Neil declined a full
professorship of Tuskegee Institu-
tie, feeling that he could serve
his people better, as he had for
years, "in his own open-air uni
yersity."

ARNALL FIGHTS
TO SMASH KHAN

ATLANTA. - The outgoing ad-
ministration of Gov. Ellis Arnall
raced against time today to smash
the corporate entity of the Ku
Kluz Khan in Georgia before in
auguration of Gov-elect Eugene
Talmadge.
Assistant Attorney General Dan
iel Duke, who successfully prose-
cuted klan floggings three years
ago, filed new charges in Fulton
(Atlanta) superior court. In them
the state alleges the Klan sought
to merge with the German-Ameri-
can Bund in 1910 in one racially
supreme "all-Aryan" organization,
and charges the Khan even now of
trying to coordinate activities of
anti-Jewish, anti-Negro and anti
Catholic groups.
Duke filling the allegations as
an amended petition to revoke the
klan's charter as charitable
and benevolent organization" de-
clared:
The state of Georgia will push
this to the limit. Let Talmadge
take personal responsibility for
dismissing the suit"
Talmadge, who takes office next
January, publicly announced sew
eral weeks ago that he would or
der the suit dropped.
Meanwhile, Duke acknowledged
receipt of an envelope containing
soiled scraps of similar charter
issued to Columbians, Inc, an
