VETERANS DANCE GALA
 OCCASION
By James E. Shankel

The echoes of war faded fur ther and further from memory here (June 21st) tonight like an ugly nightmade with a borning dawn as the Negro Veterans Civic Club played host to more than 500 guests at their summer inau- gural dance at the Labor Temple Hall, corner of Goffe and Web ster streets.
 Fun and frolic reigned supdeme. The music furnished by the Mer- ry-Makers from Musicians Local 486 won spontaneous and ire quent applause, while Roland Douglas as prompter-director skilfully directed the carefree dancers through catchy conga- tunes, or dreamy waltz, or yet again sprightly square dance.
 Toy balloons scared and popped like fre-crackers to the sound of joyful laughter. There were prizes to be won and, of course, Nylons, for shapely legs. Winners? Miss Julia Arango of 126 Southwest drive (take it easy, boys, don't push) and her part her, MT. Walter Garrison (the lucky dog) of 26 Charles street and Mrs. Georgia Wiley of 3S Hudson street and her partner, MT. Thomas W. Leslie, steward, 3rd class, U. S. Base, New Lon don, Conn.
 The real fun began along about 11:30, heightening itself with each passing moment from that time, with many of the fro lickers requesting an extra hour as the inevitable closing-time drew near.
 All in all, it was a scrump- tious time, my friend. Those vets sure know how to exploit infor- mality and yet maintain good or der and sustained hilarity. Observations at the Vets Dance
 Junior Jimmy Currie leading off the first dancers in the prize contest. Good mixer, Jimmy. Fits in everything.
 Pearly sticking close to that good looking lady at the table, which he ried to maintain was his "station." Some station, Per i ley. How about an introduction? |
 R. Heath, financial secretary of the National Negro Congress, around in the early prize contest.
 Buster Subee, grinring all over he place and mixed in the fun at every turn.
 Where did Brownie, Vets popu- ar treasurer, get that paper hat.
 Al Currie came late, but being a former army sergeant, knew ex- ,ctIy where to move in on the Hanks of the fun.
 The Evening Register ran picture of Miss Julia Orange, who incidentally beside being a con- est winner, has aspirations along he line of modelling. Good luck, Julia!
 Mrs. Georgia Wiley, another winner, was unable to get Ter ,hoto to us in time for the dead inc. >So long.

Franco Says T Won't Quit

WASHINGTON, Mar. B. h e American, British and French at tempt to overthrow Generalissimo Francisco Franco ran smack into a defiant "I won't quit" from the cocky Spanish leader. Francois re- action was anticipated. In fact there were indications before the three-power declaration was re- leased that none of the sponsors expected it to do the trick.
 The declaration was addressed to the Spanish people and merely expressed the hope that they soon would find a means to bring about the peaceful withdrawal" of Franco and establish an interim

MADRID-The average man in Madrid is puzzled about how he could help depose General Franco as the three-power declaration proposed without risking execu- tion by the firing squad for his eff forts. Men versed in Spanish poli- tics were skeptical that the Fran co regime would be busted and an interim government established without Spanish people being ex- posed to the 'horrors and bitter ness of civil strife" which the three allied powers want to avoid.

Minneapolis. Minnesota, November 10, Especially The
Christian churches of America must take the lead i'm work
ing for peace by helping to stifle national and individual
greed, DIR. Walter A. Maier, professor at Concordia Theolo-
gical Seminary, Saint Louis, declared here in a special Arm
istice Day broadcast on the International Lutheran Hour.
Maintaining that the one guaranteed means of Outlawing
wal and prolonging peace in this generation is to be found
in spiritual rebirth through faith in Jesus Christ, ne assert
ed until the avarice of men is checked and changed, we
have no reason TO expect that mad profit seekers will not
scheme TO throw this world into new and bloOdier battles
than ever before"
Even strict legislation, DIR. Maier asserted, has not able to
curb the greed which is always connected with war. "in our
own country the Department of Justice, War Funds Fraud
Division, reports that in slightly more than three years il has
brought 100 indictments against those charged with de-
frauding the government. in World War III. Sixteen Ameri-
can corporations and l58 individuals have already been
found guilty Of making illegal gains, while almost third
of a million American boys paid with their lives"
sf they could be assured in advance of their personal
profit. millions in our country" the radio speaker main
tanned, would be ready to have this nation declare war to-
morrow. despite the cruel cost of conflict in youthful lives,
svilian deaths, the collapse of many families and the heavy
losses which the churches suffer because of bloOdshed." he
asked for a militant Christianity, rededicated TO the found
stion truths of New Testament faith and promised that with
Christ's peace in their hearts, men can show peace in their
lives. in their homes, in their churches and in their nation,
and thus become peace bringers in a world of war;"

MAGGOTS OF HATE
Kurt Daluege is dead. He was
hanged in a Prague prison on Oc-
tober % for crimes committed a.
gainst the Czech people while he
was the Nazi deputy protector
of Czechoslovakia.
He ordered the raZing of Lidice
in reprisal for the assination of
the tyrant, Heydrich patriots. He
was convicted, among other things
for having signed 1863 death war
rants in six days for Czechs who
approved Heydrich's assination',
478 for Czechs who failed to re-
gister with police in the twenty
four hours after the assination,
158 for other crimes, and SGT for
general executions in the follow
ing year.
But, Daluege and other Nazi
Indicators are now dead. In a
recent column in the Atlanta Con
stitution, Ralph McGill muses. on
their tragic end. Maggots will cor
sumo their bodies now, he writes
as long ago the maggots of hate
began to consume their minds.
Maggots Of hate-which first ate
away the life Of Germanw-then
reduced Europe to rottenness and
despair-and spread across the sea
to lay seige against the strength
of America. The Nazis expected 1t
would work out that way.
They knew, Mr.. McGill writes
that in other countries the mag
gots of their idet and philosophy
were at work. They knew it in
the arly 1905, when they heard
and other people say
You know that fellow Hitler
has got something. A little crude
maybe. And of course he is an
person, a clown. But
still, he has got something.
And they licked their lips and
their eyes shone a. the maggots
of hate and prejudice moved in
their brains. They had no idea
the maggots had eaten so deeply.
But they had. Very deeply. Fear
came. The craven were for opening
the gates. But opened instead were
the furnace gates Of war. Misery
came to all the world.
Well, there its is. There's the
story of how hate issues in misery
for one and all. No decent man can
it. The conscience of Amer
lea cannot stand it. We must-we
will--join the fight against racial
and religious hate.
