show, On the surface, II appears
that we are engaged In such i'm
portant world affairs as the DISPOSE
ton Of the secret Of atomic energy
and peace terms and conditions that
will endure, but actually we are
more concerned about the low quail
ity Of our evhporated milk. and
the lack Of purity and freshness In
the food we eat daily.
We relaxed our vigilance out Of
necessity during the war, and try
rs we might, we cannot get back TO
the high level again. Cheating and
dishonesty are the top virtues OF
the moment, and, "let the buyer
beware" has been revived as a ma
tional slogan. Our government
which has never dared TO interfere
with the sadistic excursions Of q
lynch mob, granted permission to
tamper with the butter-fat content
Of whole milk, and with one author
itarian stroke, took the cream out
Of our coffee. Short weights are
the mode Of the moment, and ice
cream buyers get a fraction Of the
full measure for which they pay.
Housewives with sugar ration
coupons 10 without, while human
hogs with little conscience and
much cash, lay up stores OF the
stuff without recourse TO ration
coupons. II Is not what these things
are In themselves that matter, II
Is what they reflect. In the things
that give and make life, 1t Is every
man for himself. and the devil take
the hlndmost. There Is no longer
the feverish attempt 10 prove that
all will be well when the Negro
recognizes the truth Of his low
estate and stays there; II 10 not
so much the color of n mans skin
as II In the color Of his money.
Should you suffer the terrible
panRs Of ptOmaine from eating q
piece Of improperly inspected and
improperly refrigerated pork, at
tribute II TO the current American
passion for making q great profit
In a great hurry. We talk Of the
black market as though II were
new and formidable branch Of our
national economy, and we admit
that butter does not reach the
open market because the black
marketeers have money that talks
faster and stronger. We are afraid
10 control prices for the benefit
Of the millions Of our under-paid
and under-fe brothers, because the
strong money bloc will yell about
the nick in their profits. We dare
not openly take the lid of prices
because those who will be RougeC
have votes, so we slowly emasculats
price controls and slip II to then
easy.
Leaving our own house In shame
less disorder we send our big brain'
TO tell the rest Of the world how
10 build for peace on the American
plan. We pull the curtain over thu
hungry emaciated millions In oui
own land while we send our bes'
cameras to record the emaciatet
victims Of starvation in Europe ant
Asia, thus by subtle comparison
showing our own little victims how
much better of they happen to be

she was following at the moment
She said as much and before she
quite knew what was going on she
was auditiOned and hired. She was
in Florida for the recent season, but
just before that Miss Boyar had
virtually given up hope of ever get
