Although there are eight Offices
being contested along party lines in
Arlington. only two of them are ex-
pected to reflect the countys Demo-
cratic and Republican balance of
power in Tuesdays election.
This is because all but the two
contests are either split by one or
more independents, the failure of
Republicans to nominate in one in
stance or because of situations pecu-
liar to some Of the races.
In addition to the eight offices
fought for by the major parties, five
seats on the school board are being
sought by IL candidates and two
seats on the county board are
sought by nine aspirants, all running
as Independents.

NLRB Hearing

Atlanta, Ga. (FP) - The NLRB

step of renting CIO hall to hold
an unfair labor practices hearing
in Alexander City, Ala, NLRB
Regional Director Paul Styles re-
vealed here. Normally the board
would not consider holding hear
ing on property controlled by one

but no other meeting rooms could
be obtained after the. agency
moved for the fifth time since
Dec. 3.
The board hearings revolved
around charges brought by the
Textile Workers Union against the
Russell Manufacturing Co. of
Alexander City. Three city police
officials have been named code
PENDANTS, charged with interfer-
ing with union activities.
Styles pointed out that he had
sought unsuccessfully to hold the

Disabled Veterans Hall, a lodge
belonging to the University Of Ala
bama, a night club, and the post
office building in Opelika, so miles
away.

THE CHERRY TREE

Again we approach American
Brotherhood Week. The Week this
year is to be the week of Feb. 16.
1t is sponsored by the National
Conference of Christians and Jews.
Participating in the National Con-
ference are Catholics, PrOtestants
and Jews.
It seems strange that in land
dedicated to freedom, wherein it
is clearly stated that call men are
created equal" it should be neces-
sary to set aside a single week in
the year in which to give emphasis
to the doctrine of common decency,
man toward man.
The best that can be hoped for
is that after each of these annual
Weeks there will be a little more
understanding, little more OF
human decency and, if you will a
little more tolerance. However,
tolerance is not the goal. Justice
is the goal.

Whatever may be said in the
Constitution, or in Federal, State
or local law, we know that there is
all too little brotherhood abroad
in our land.
Prejudice stalks abroad in the
land. Too many Protestants don't
act fairly or decently toward too
many Jews and they have their
suspicious of too many Catholics.
The Negro gets it in the neck
quite naturally.
And even among Jews there are
fairly hard and fast lines between
"the better Jews" and the "lower
type Jews" That hold true, too,
among Negroes.
There is nobody who can come
along with a great brushful of
white paint and wipe out the ugly
stains in our social, political and
economic structure all at once. But
there can be progress through the
slow and often painful business of
