ATTENTION VETS!

The Seattle Urban League calls
to the attention of veterans the
fact that September l, 1947, is
the deadline for the receipt of
applications for terminal leave pay
for veterans. If applications are
not filed on or before this date
no adjustments will be allowable.
In many sections Of the Nation
many Negro veterans have not
taken advantage of his legal
right for various reasons. includ-
ing inadequate counseling and lack
of information. The Urban League,
therefore. strongly urges all vet
Grams to immediate file for term
inal leave pay If this has not
yet been done. Applications for
terminal leave pay can be secured
at the Post Office.

"One cannot help wondering

In Medical terms a person in
fected by a contagious disease is
known as a carrier which infects
those who have weak resistance
to the particular kind of germ,
the carrier, carries. In inter-racial
relations the person or persons
who travel about the country or
abroad spreading the germ of race
hatred is known as a Southern
agent
AS the contagious germ of the
carrier infects those who have
weak resistance to the germ, so
does the germ of race hatred
spread by the Southern Agent
infect those people of weak re-
sistance living in areas compar-
atiively free from the virus.
The Southern Agent may be
white or black. He may be acting
deliberately to spread his poison
or he may be acting ignorantly
and innocently of any intention
to do harm.
A concrete example of a de-
liberated attempt to spread race
hatred recently was brought to
