TO UNSEAT BnBO A MISTAKE

Washington - MT. David Lawrence made it known here the other day and throughout the country, wherever news papers carry his syndicated column, that he feels it would be a bad precedent to unseat Senator Bilbo.
 MT. Lawrence said, Tn the Bilbo case the only real grounds for discussing and unseating relate to whether the Mississip- plan did or did not violate the laws of the land in accepting favors from war contractors. ,
 To MT. Lawrence the matters of indictment of race prejudice or the holding and spreading of undemocratic ideals by mem Der of the highest legislative body of the nation is beside the point.
 And so he concludes his opin- ion with the following state ment: Senate members hesi- tate a long time before casting their ballots to unseat Senator on vague grounds because they know that once a precedent is made, it can be referred to again."

GORDON MENTIONED FOR COACHES JOB

Berkeley, Calif.-Some years back the University of South ern California had a stellar linesman on their football team by the name of Walter Gordon. Gordon was one of the first Negro players to appear in Pacific Coast collegiate football,
 After graduation he accepted a position at the University as scout and one of the assistant coaches. As a scout he earned the reputation of being one of the most analytical and astute in the business.
 Now with the resignation of Head Coach Frank Wickhorst, the name of Walter Gordon is among those that have been sug gested to the athletic staff of the University to fill this va cancy.
 Gordon has continued to live in California ever since his col lege days and at present IS chairman of the California Adult Authority.

 The report mentions that on September II Secretary Schwel- lenbach of the U. $. Department of Labor agreed, for the first time, in a meeting of organiza- tions called at the suggestion of the NAACP that segregation in the District of Columbia USES would be abolished. The NAACP also asked governors of a number of states to adopt policies of no discrimination. The writing concludes, how ever, that the return of federal control is necessary if a real attack is to be made on dis elimination.

 The two films which form the core of the show are: "Call to Duty, a documentary of Ne gro Army exploits in the last war, narrated by Walter Illus ton; and 'The Highest Tradi- tion'', which traces Negro Navy training and the heroes it pro- duced, told by Frederic March.

legislation relative to veterans, examining the same for the pur- pose of determining whether this legislation was discrimina- tory. It has carefully perused the activities of the Veterans Administration and is fighting for the eradication of segraga- tion and discrimination based on race in this, the largest gov ernment agency in existence to- day. It has urged the integra- tion of Negroes into it's own ia cilities and provided for federal legislation for the aid of vet erans. It is fighting discrimina- tion in the armed forces and pressing for full integration of Negroes into these services.
 Some of the main features of the Associations work in 1946 included the formation of the National Committee for Justice in Columbia, Tennessee, setting up of the National Committee on Mob Violence, which in cluded a visit to President Tru- man and the subsequent Civil Rights Committee which was appointed by the President. The Secretary served on the com mittee to study the UAW-GM strike controversy, aided in the hearings before the Senate com mittee to determine the fitness of Gov. William H. Elastic to serve in that capacity in the Virgin Islands, and served on the Attorney Generals panel on juvenile delinquency. The Association prepared detailed information presented before the Senate committee concern ing Senator Bilbo. It vigorous ly opposed the distorted facts as set forth in the Meader report concerning the activities of Ne gro troops in the European Ar my of Occupation. It sponsored the drafting of a new anti lynching bill and draft of general bill for the protection of civil rights for citizens. It poste da $1O,O00 reward in the matter of the quadruple Georgia lynchings.

JOE LOUIS HEADS CELEBRITIES AT BUSHNELL BENEFIT SHOW

films which record the achieve ments of the Negro in the Army and the Navy in World War II, and supported by famous names of stage, screen and radio, will open at Bushnell Memorial, Monday night, January 13 at 500 pm. under the direction of the Wallace Thorsen Organlza- tion in cooperation with the National Urban League, it IS announced jointly today by Wallace Thorsen and Guichafd Paris, director of promotion and publicity of the League.
 Appearing on the program will be Lionel Hampton and band; Philippa Schuyler, Piano Prodigy; Carol Brice, famous Contralto; Charles Holland, Tenor; Kenneth Spencer, Bas- so; Josh White, Blues Singer !; Timmy Moore, Comedian. May or Allen will introduce Joe Louis, who will speak briefly during the program.
 The National Urban League is a 36 year old inter-racial ser vcie organization geared for social action through social work. It has affiliates in 56 cities in 29 states and the Dis trict of Columbia.
 ''The plan for this road show series has been worked out with the League in cooperation with the Wallace Thorsen Organiza- tion," says MT. Paris, land will serve two worthwhile pur- poses. It will make possible first, a series of tributes to the Negro's war contribution - achievements thus far under stood chiefly by the Negro com munity. It is second, consci- ous attempt on the part of lead ing citizens to make the com munity- -at-large aware of the broader opportunities yet to be granted the Negro if we are ever to. realize the goals for which they, along with their white brothers, so recently gave their lives.
 "As one sees alert Negro youths studying the delicate precision mechanisms used aboard ship in the Navy film, learning to work out compli- cated technical problems on the field of battle as recorded in the Army film, one cannot help wondering to what use all this knowledge and skill has been put now that the war is over Not every veteran has a peace time job attuned to his war broadened education, but an intinitesmal number of Negro veterans have even had a chance to compete for jobs in . line with their war-wOn skills.

 est years in the history of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo- ple", declared Walter White. Negroes in America have been disallusioned over the wave of lynchings, brutality and official recession from all of the fam boyant promises of post war democracy and decency. Yet there has been slowly generated among Negroes and men of good will burning core of re- sistance which has reflected it. self in the unparalleled growth of the Association in every sec tion of the country. But this is neither phenomenal nor even startling, for the same drive toward decency and fairness is developing among all of the peoples of the world, and es- pecially among the colored peo- ples of the world.''
 MT. White, speaking at the NAACP Annual Meeting on January 9th in the auditorium of New York's Freedom House, continued, ''The entire civilized world was shocked in 1946, by reports of the ultra-sadism of American lynching mobs who tortured and mutilated Negro men and even women. It list ened, almost unbelieving, to re- ports of blow-torch killing and eye-gouging of Negro veterans freshly returned from a war to end torture and racial exter- imitation. But 1t must be en-
 couraged too when it watches the flame of resistance famed into full life as Negroes and their democracy-loving friends fight the Bilbos and Rankins stand their ground at the registration booths '. defy or ganizations like the Columbians and sit 1t out in unsegra
 gated housing projects in de- fance of the bowling mobs. The NAACP victory at Columbia, Tennessee; the historic victory over Jim Crow seating in inter state bus travel; the unprece- dented spectacle of 25O Negro veterans called out by NAACP branches in Mississippi, stand ing in the courtroom at the Bill
 bo hearings, anxious to speak against the hate-filled champion of lynching; the white students tanning the Austin, Texas, courtroom, shoulder to shoulder with Negroes, giving encourage ment to the Associations law yers in their suit to force the University of Texas to admit qualified Negro students; all of this is part of the flame. "
 The NAACP secretary fo- cussed attention on the political scene with specific reference to the far reaching importance of the Associations Supreme Court victory in the Texas Pri- maries issue, which gave the right to vote to Southern Ne
Hartford chronicle., 1947-01-11

281, 1t should be remembered by both major parties, the Ne gro vote could swing the bal ance of power. With Negroes going to the polls in the south, their votes must now be con- sidered decisive factor in any election. The Republicans now in power have just two years in which to prove to Negroes that they should remain in power"
 The following are some of the highlights of the Association $ work in 1946:
 1946 was a year of tremend- ous growth for the Association. One hundred eighty four new branches, sixty four new youth councils an dcollege chapters were chartered. The Associa- tion also set up in the national office a department of public relations, educational depart ment, and made provisions for church secretary. The staff of the Washington Bureau was augmented by the employment of a Labor Secretary. The 31st award of the Spingarn medal was made to Thurgood Mar shall, Special Counsel of the Association. (See citation in July 1946, Bulletin.)
 Perhaps the most outstanding aspect of the Legal Depart ment's work was the winning of the Irene Morgan vs. Common wealth of Virginia case which established the legal principle that state segregation laws do not apply to interstate passen- gers on interstate carriers. The Legal Department arranged for and directed the defense of some twenty-seven Negroes charged with crimes varying from attempted murder to il- legal possession of weapons, as a reult of the alleged riot in Columbia, Tennessee. Twenty three of the defendants were cleared on all charges through the Associations legal efforts.
 In the field of education, the Legal Department handled four university cases involving the right of Negroes to enter grad uate schools in those states where segregation Is practiced and got provisions made for Negroes in the graduate schools. These cases were instituted in Texas, Oklahoma, and two in Louisiana.
 The Legal Department was successful in reducing the peri ods confinement levied against former Negro servicemen by court-martial courts in a total of more than 2100 years, and has had at least eight death sentences cOmmuted. Hundreds of smaller cases were handled, including police brutality, ex- tradition, housing, and employ ment problems. The Veterans Bureau in Washington served

DR.. BROWN KILLED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT
Local Churchgoers Mourn
Death OF Noted
Leader

I News has recently been receiv-
ed that on November 3rd, DR..
Arthur I. Brown, the Well-knoWn
Christian physician of Victoria
B. c.. was instantly killed when
/ his car collided with a truck on
state highway about 3 miles from
Barry Ill. DR.. Brown accompani-
ed by his daughter, Patricia, was
on his way from Indianapolis to
Kansas City to fill a speaking en-
gagement. His daughter was I'M
hurt except for two small cuts
On the hand.
Friends in this city will re-
member that DR.. Brown held a
two weeks Bible conference here
last. August at the Christian and
Missionary Alliance Tabernacle
9Th and Orange streets.
DR.. Brown was the author of
many books, among them being,
Footprints of God" miracles of
Science" Goods Masterpiece, the
Human Body"
DR.. Brown was one Of those
highly trained and gifted men
who could have had a successful
career in his own profession, but
he chose rather to devote all Of
his talents to upholding the Bible
against it's enemies, Strengthening
Christians in their faith and pro-
claiming the wonders of Gods
power in creation and the riches
Of His grace in Christ Jesus. Even
so, Dr.. Brown was honored by
being made Fellow of the Royal
college of Surgeons, a British or
ganization Of outstanding medi-
cal men.
1T is an interesting coinci-
dence that DR.. Browns last
book, II will Come Again. was
first placed in the mails for dis
tribution at almost the identical
moment of DR.. Browns death. 1t
is significant that his last word
to the Christian church should be
on the second coming of Christ.
and that this message should ap-
pear at the moment when its
author was SO suddenly taken
from our midst church lesders
have said.
