Hollywood, Calif.-The other

suit and then asked what do
you think about the Race Quest

we all knew each other better,
there wouldn't be a race problem.
Then he went on to explain how
he had always tried to live his
belief in the brotherhood of man
how he had tried to show what he
felt by actions rather than words.
Wen he was a boy in st. August

slant playmate and best friend
was a little colored boy. He has
never forgotten that friendship,

NEGROES SHOULD OPPOSE
INITIATION TRENDS

New York, NY, February is,
1946-It is apparent that the Uni
ted States is steadily and rapidly
moving toward initiation. In fact
it is already in a state of incipi-
ent initiation. Prices of various
commodities are rising. There are
huge piles Of money in the hands
of the public ready for use to pur-
chase goods for consumption. The
dealer, wholesale ard retail, are
building Inventories and boarding
goods, waiting for higher prices
with a view to making exorbitant
profits A. Pie!ip Randolph, IN
ternational President, of the Bro.
therhood of Sleeping Car Porters
in New York City,
Meanwhile pressure from big
business upon the Government to
abolish the OPA and eliminate all
forms of price controls is terri
fic. United States Steel, General
Motors, Ford, the meat packers
and practically all of the major
industrial concerns insist upon
the right to raise prices as a con-
dition to granting wage increases.
1t is apparent that Government is
yielding to this pressure. Already
the increase in the price of steel
has been practically insured. This
means an increase in prices in
practically everything, since steel
is a basic industry which affects
practically all other industries.
When mutations comes, those
sections of the national communi-
ty that are economically weak,
sulh as the Negro, who is the LIST
fired and the last hired, will be
the hardest hit. In direct ratio to
the rising of prices the value of
money goes down. The bonds that
were bought during the wal by
Negroes will depreciate in value.
Bank savings will slump in value.
In fact the possessions of the Ne
gro will melt away under the bur-
ming sun of spirallng initiation.
Hence Negroes and all other min
critics, including labor, should re
g1ster a vigorous and continuous
protest against the Government
granting an increase in prices to
steel, especially to the extent that
steel is demanding. A strong drive
should be inaugurated to maintain

three months in the library of the

But since, as she says, she is "tru-

was asked to assist DR.. Lanier in
July of 1915.

pieces for it, among them the pic

amusing experience in connection
with this film, when the producers
insisted on having a Negro spiri-

enlisted the aid of all the colored
musicians he knew, but when none
of them could find such a spir1-

write one. He did just that. After
he'd finished it, someone noticed
in it a resemblance to a then pop

everyone accepted Howard Jack

and thought the writers of the
popular song had stolen their ma

shipments of contributed clothing,
makes up reports and breaks them
down as she says to make sense
to the Treasury. She hopes for a
better classification soon in the

A native Of Birmingham, Ala,
Mrs. Williams has also spent a
good deal Of her time with rela-
tives in Chicago. she majored IN
commerce, finance and account
ing at Howard, completed the
course in 3 years and worked at
various jobs while going to coll
eye. On graduation, she enrolled
at the American University where
size was accepted as a Sloan Fou-
ndation student and expects to
have her masters degree in eco
Monies AID labor by next June.
The Foundation is a teaching in
stitute particularly interested in
original thought in economics, and
/ she avows her chief interest is
to know how to present economic
facts to laymen. to get across to

subject Of the present Seminar
She takes 3 courses, working 3
nights a week.
In a government job with the

Jams took as a junior CLERK typIsr
in 1912, she was agreeabiy u
prised at the speed with which

vas recognized and appreciated.
II TIE wi an Retirement Re
cords Branch she was quickly re-
classified and put to work on {

I started fooling around with the

had figured out a system that
increased production in posting OF
civilian retirement records to dou-
BILE the maximum they had ever
mad before"
Among her other activities at
college Mrs. Williams wrote a col
I'M titled "On Campus and Off
Campus for the magazine called
PULSE. She has thought about
writing as a career, particularly
in the field of economies and of
labor; and is certified to teach
English Is well as commercial
subjects in the Washington, D. c.
schools. With many interests and
talents, it was difficult to make
up her mind about which career
to choose. She has also thought
of studying Hospital Administra-
ton at the Chicago University,
and though far younger than most
applicants for that special course,
she was accepted. However, the
Sloan Foundation offer at Ameri-
can University won out.
For diversion Mrs. Williams is
partial to swimming and modern
dancing. At college, she became
a fairly prof. q ent swimmer in
