For the benefit of those people
on the reservation with whom
We have as yet been unable to

committee is extending an in
vitation to participate with their
horses. wagons or other entry.
We will cooperate with one
and all. We wish that everyone
who plans to enter would leave
word with Mrs. Bassette or Mrs.
Williamson so we can get entire
parade list made up. If we have
a list prepared in advance our
parade can be lined up smoothly,
and in minimum of time.
Our parade will line up on the
street east of the Indian En-
campment instead Of at the gov
eminent garage as in previous
years. This will enable it to be
formed in a straight line at the
beginning.

The MODERN HARVEST

Those who live in Americas
grain growing areas have no
doubt noticed that the marked
changes in harvesting equipment
have been paced by the harvest
hands themselves. Oldsters will
recall when the ripening Of the
wheat was the signal for the des.
cent upon farming communities
of a motley crew who came via
freight trains only to learn on
reaching their destination that
there was a surfeit of seasonal
workers. Today, a great deal Of
this wandering about has been
eliminated through State employ.
ment bureaus which keep in close
touch with the labor situation.
If modes and methods have
changed, likewise have the har.
vest worker. Residents of county
seat towns are no longer able to
spot" them on sight, since the
harvest hands look very much
like farmers who have come in
from their farms on business-or
like mechanics. For in this day
of trucks, tractors, and com.
bines, the harvest worker who
had to be a master hand with
horses" must now be equally
conversant with horsepower. He
must have a fixing knowledge Of
cam wheels azd carburetors. In.
stead of being unlettered. he is
likely to be a school-master with
a college degree.
Although wheat-cuttin9 tech.
nique has undergone a radical
revision, one thing about the
harvest season hasn't changed.
The meals served to workers
seem to be as bounteous as ever.

END OF CHURCH
DISCRIMINATION CALLED
MORAL PRIORITY
BY COLLEGE HEAD

NEW YORK, Jan. 8 (ANP)-
Urging aggressive action to elimin-
ate racial prejudice and the prac-
tice of discrimination and segre-
cation within the churches, DR..
Edwin Mcneil Poteat, president
of Colgate Rochester Divinity
school, declared here that public
support of Christian racial atti-
tudes will not be developed except
by those who see it as moral pri-
ority of the first order"
In an address marking the open
ing of the oath annual meeting of
the race relations department of
the Federal Council of Churches at
ST. Georges Protestant Episcopal
church, DIR. Poteat declared that
the moral implications of racial
prejudice must be one of the major
emphases of the church.
Before the church can speak
with moral authority, however, it
must be confronted by its own
completely in the encouragement of
race prejudice, and the practice Of
discrimination and segregation, !"
he asserted.
During the two-day sessions 200
church leaders, representatives of
labor and government, and special
lists in the fields of housing, en-
ployment and education discussed
ways in which the church can influ-
ence public policies in race rela-
tions on the local, state and nation
al level.
In symposium on the strategy
and methods in race relations of
groups under public auspices,
Clarence l. Chatto, principal of the
Classical High school, Springfield,
Mass, declared that the Public

said: 1--WE left lot Of unfinished
jobs in our America when we went
to war-problems that must be
solved if our democracy is to sue
ceed. And some of these problems
are going to be more acute when
this war is over. We must make our
system work so that everyone who
wants to work can get decent job.
The speaker was of the opinion
that American inventiveness and
ingenuity could solve the acute
problems that had come out OF the
war. However, the dean said,
"We've got to make sure that never
again shall one third of our people
live on such bare subsistence levels
that they cannot buy things which
our gigantic industrial machine can
produce for them.
Dean Olson, head of the journal
ism department Of Sau, who was the
first civilian instructor called in on
the formation of the army univer-
sity, then scanned the brief history
of the model school for the gradu-
ates. He stressed particularly the
work in understanding the univer-
sity had played with the British.
Dean Olson concluded his address
by charging his graduates to return
home and live up to all Shrivenham
had tried to do for them.
Dean Olson was introduced to the
graduates by Brig. Gen. C. M.

previously attempted solutions of
the race problem were not consist
ent with Christian values and ideas.
In most of the cities, according
to thereports, the clinics have re-

racial councils composed Of repre-
sentatives of community agencies.
Among the speakers who discuss

tional Garment Workers union !;
Mrs. Anna Arnold Hedgeman, exc
cutive secretary of the National
Council for a Permanent FEPC;

for the students and the community
"can prevent as we'll as cure racia
problems that challenge the Amer
lean people today"
Neither schools nor churche.
nor other agencies working alone
however, can achieve results tina
give promise of deep and lasting i'm
provement," he continued. "Al
must work together"
Mrs. Mary K. Simkhovitch, vice
chairman of the New York Hous
ing authority, told the conference
that there was no segregation in any
public housing project in New Yorl
and that day nurseries in the prof
acts serve both Negro and white
children.
"All races, creeds and colors have
equal right to all facilities" she
pointed out, Including health elm.
les, recreation centers and tenant
councils"
Describing the efforts Of the
police department through the
Police Athletic league to reduce ra.
cial tensions, Parole Commissioner
Samuel J. Battle said that the
church could implement this pro-
gram by keeping their doors open
seven days a week and by taking
more responsibility in community
affairs before, not after, an out
break"
Harold A. Letta of the New Jersey
State Division against discrimina-
ton gave credit to organized church
groups for helping to bring the divi-
sion into existence.
Deploring the present tendency
n state employment services to
force Negroes from war industries
back into domestic service, Mr.. Lett
declared that "the right to employ
ment is a civil right and should be
protected by the state"
The direction of public employ
ment, he said, will be determined by
the degree to which we attain full
employment.
At the Monday evening session
reports were heard from some of

JACKSON, Miss, Sept. 5 (ANP)
In a letter in answer to the
NAACP's telegraphic pro tie S t
against the purported "racial ten
sion" in Smith county, Acting Gov.
Wright cautioned the organization
and other interracial groups that
they should acquire the true facts
before beating the drums of racial
propaganda"
The Smith county incident sur
rounded an attempt by a group of
armed Negroes to evade arrest, in
which several law enforcement Off
GERS were repeatedly wounded by
the fugitives.
Gov. Wright declared that no ele-
ment of racial tension was involved,
and that there would never be any
racial hatred in the state unless it
is caused by malicious meddling of
outside influences" He asserted
that only harm could come of "ef-
forts of agitators to portray every
incident in the south as lynching
