NEGROES ORDERLY
The incident occurred when two
American ships, one manneden-
tlrely by Negroes, dorked in the
port of Stockholm. The Negroes,
according to the police, were order
ly and were not held responsible
for the clash.
The resolution states in part:
According to a police report
the brutal conduct toward the Neg
roes and the outrages on them
we're, on their part, uprovoked.
What has happened was obviously

Meeting Held
Advocate Editor
Elected Member

The National Board of the South
ern Conference for Human Welfare,
meeting in Atlanta, Ga, Friday
saw the country being asked in
reace time to give up its constitu-
t:onaI liberties IN the name of pro-
tecting democracy.
The Board finds the pattern o.
totalitarianisp evident in the rise
of thought control, guilt by ASST
citation, dismissal of government
workers without hearing or legal
protection, inquisition by irrespon-
slble Congressional committees,
removal Of liberal teachers and
college professors. All these re-
strictions, taken in peace time,
under the guise of national security
are more than at any time during
The war, the board declared.
The conference called on south
ern patriots to unite in drive to
save the democratic rights still
remaining to The people and re-
apture thos. recently stolen
from us. The Board feels it is
ssential to the county's welfare
for the leadership of the Democrats
Party to return to the humanitarian
policies of FcaL kiln y. Roosevelt.

LAND PRICES

Farmers who bought Iowa land
in the period of high prices in
1925-27 found themselves going
further in debt at the rate of S905
a year until 1941 and were delin-
.ouent in interest payments in 62
per cent of the intervening years.
Land purchases in Illinois at the
same high level brought even

leaving the tavern, but he was I'M
aware of it There had to be a way
and he could seek no rest or sleep
till his mind stumbled upon it. He
repeatedly kept thinking of Hal,
Jim and Mac hating them more
with each succeeding thought and
feeling more strongly the irrista-
BILE compulsion to show them that
he would live up to the threat
which he had flung at them just
before they left him. He wanted to
kill all of them, but he couldn't.
They would have to be alive if
they were to observe the proof
which he would provide. His mind
was in a mad whirl of hate and
cunning, bitterness and persistent
Notwithstanding frantically into
the Obscure recesses of his tangl-
ed knowledge for victim, a situa-
ton and a method. Suddenly, out
of the maze of haphazard thoughts
and grotesque ideas, the plan FORM
ed almost as if by itself. 1t flashed
into his mind in such a state of
completeness that not a single
doubt arose for even a fleeing sec
ond. He reviewed it quickly, his
breath coming fast. He checked and
rechecked and accepted it imme-
diately. The exhiliarstion and re-
lief of the initial victory was so
great that he was unable to con-
tain it. He broke out with sobs Of
hysterical laughter that echoed ra-
pidly down the dark, silent street.
The loud laughter swiftly diminish
ed into a low chuckle and then be-
came a fit of empty cough as he
fell exhausted against lamp post.
Afte resting a while, he inspected
the surrounding buildings but fail
ed to recognize them. Then he real
lied that he was leaning on lamp
post and looked up to read the
street sign. He knew the street but
it merely told him that he would
have to walk to the other side of
town to get to the boarding house
where he stayed He dreaded the
walk, but as he started back down
the street, he was smiling.

discovery. He had thought about 1t

crime absurdly simple when viewed
