Mr.. Hudson was fired from his
JOB on December on the strength
OF a series of scurrilous articles
in the Birmingham Post, noto-
riously anti-labor Scripps- Howard
paper, alleging that he was a
leader in the Communist Party,
The company, alleging that this
publicity caused "dissension" in
The plant, seized the opportunity
to discharge the man who had
been most responsible for win
ming higher wages and improved
conditions for the employees. 1t
was aided in this action by the
fact that the Birmingham Indus
trial Union Council, CIO, led by
its president. Ben Gage, man of
pronounced anti-Negro bias, had
evicted Hudson and two white
union leaders who supported him,
on the basis of the same news

traitors. headed by Judge Whitley

even though the contract provides
purposes Of discrimination against
any. member of the union"
In. its protest the youth Con-
gress stated: This action, il it is
not met with the aroused protests
of union spokesman and progress
sive citizens, can become the sig
nal for the wholesale firing of
militant Negro trade unionists
who refuse to be intimidated in
their heroic efforts to overcome
wage differentials based on col
or, the denial of seniority privi-
leges to Negro workers. and the
usurpation of power within the
labor movement of the South by
the open and concealed propon-
ents of white supremacy"
Hosea Hudson is by all stand
ards the outstanding Negro trade
union leader in Alabama. and one
of the foremost in the country
For years he has struggled to
win a higher standard of living
for miserably oppressed working
men. Negro and white, in Birm-

AS one of our very good friends
said, Il don't know what you would
need an egg separator for, I can
accomplish the job quicker with
just my hands" Well perhaps she
can. after much experience, but
we've yet to separate the yolks from
the whites of an egg without getting
it all mixed up, or losing the yolk. or
still worse getting the "gooey" mix
ture all over ourselves. We must be
one of those people for whom this
plastic gadget was designed and
manufactured. It's light in weight,
small of size, comes in a variety of
colors to match the rest of your
kitchen accessories and is very in
expensive. It resembles a tea strain
er in design, the bottom cup. how
ever, is solid instead of the wire
mesh. The yolk settles in this cup
and by fitting ever so slightly the
white will slide through a side
opening. Sounds complicated but
it's really very simple.

This is getting me down, especially

If you are middle aged, nearing
fifty or past 1t, you will find it nee
essary to indulge in some kind Of
adult education If your life from
there on is to be happy and vital.
I have been given special previews
Of the dreary existence some will
lead and graphic shorts Of the
boring life others are leading by
the hundreds of thousands of let
ters which come to me each year.
With the idea of giving my read
ers some helpful suggestions, and
bringing to their minds some mis-
takes to avoid, have prepared the
following QUESTIONABLE. You may
be interested in checking yourself
against 1t.
l. Are you gradually beginning to
live through others? Have you set
tied back to live through your chill
dren? Have you vital interests of
your own?
2. Have you realized that there will
be a vacuum left, or that there Is
already one, because your children
are grown and no longer require
your constant attention? Are you
taking intelligent steps to fill this
vacuum by courses of study, hobbies,
a job. or philanthropic work?
3. Do you look back rather than
forward?
4. Do you still cling to young,
frilly clothes, rather than become
aware that style, rather than pref
tinesS, is now your forte?
5. Have you toned down your
makeup to match the changing
tones of your skin?
6. Are you developing a close
companionship with your husband?
If YOU have allowed this to deterio-
