 "The B beneficiary colleges are performing a patriotic and vital service in educating mem bers of the Negro race to take their rightful places in the American scheme of things. The student of today is the citizen of tomorrow and the nation needs the graduates of these institutions as much as 1t does those holding sheepskins from other colleges and universities ''

WHAT THE EDITORS SAID ABOUT THE NEGRO COLLEGE FUND
Washington Evening Star:

Providing adequate facili- ties for the education of Negro youth is not exclusively a mat ter of concern to Negroes. It is, rather, an obligation and privilege in which all Ameri- cans should share. The fruits of the investment will be limit ed to no single race"

 college doors to ambitious young Negroes, who will pay for their schooling in service, not only to their own race but also to city and state"
 New York Herald Tribune:
 "In our judgement, Ameri- cans who contribute to this Fund, are not contributing to a charity but to their own we'll being. There are ill this coun- try 13 million Negroes, which means one in every ten Ameri- cans, and it is automatic that the state of so large a minority group affects the whole coun- try.'
 Newport News (va.) Press:
 "Only in recent years has the education of the Negro citizen received any thing like the at- tention it deserves. Ignorance is no respecter of persons. Hartford (Conn.) Courant:
 'It will be a contribution to our national well-being, because from the ranks of the boys and girls who are now attending Negro colleges will come the Negro leaders of tomorrow. It is to the entire community's in terest that these leaders be giv- en the opportunity now to ob- tain a full education.
 Washington Post:
 Aside from the principles of justice and democracy involved better education for Negroes is a matter of insurance and in vestment for all Americans. Charlotte (N.C.) Observer
 "The Negro race must be largely led to higher reaches of responsibility and citizenship by those of their own people
Hartford chronicle., 1947-01-04
San Antonio Evening News:

"As compared with the in- terests at stake, the sum sought is modest. The contributor may feel that he is purchasing bene- fits to his community worth much more. He will help open college doors to ambitious young Negroes, who will pay for their schooling in service, not only to their own race but also to city and state"

that such machine has real invest

While it is of the greatest import

attention to marketing reconditioned
used cars efficiently.
The real worth of good used car
is apparent. Intelligent buyers have
been known to pay practically the
price of a new one for a used car
when delivery was too long defer
red.
The dividing line between new
and really good used cars is stead
lily vanishing. The fact is now ac-
cepted that some used cars are bet
ter investments than some new ones
because the first depreciation which
is so heavy is'avoided.
A good used car is positively and
absolutely the better investment.
The average purchaser of a new car
with its great first depreciation over
which he has no control realizes it
is a heartbreaking and a ridiculous
sacrifice of money.

In the conservation of our food
supply nothing is as important as
the modern cold storage plant, In
the days of our grandmothers,
fresh foods had definite season;
one could eat fresh foods only for
short periods, and after that had
to be content with mediocre canned
goods. But today the American
home has the best of vegetables and
fruits the year around at low
prices, eggs are inexpensive the year
around and it is entirely due to cold
storage and its scientific develop
ment.
One of the most modern cold stor-
age plants of this section is that of
this reliable concern; all vegetables,
eggs, poultry and fruits, etc, are
kept under the best condition. The
modern processes are used and the
temperature is vigorously maintained
