HOWARD PRESIDENT S---NAT|0NS weakened
IN WORLD AFFAIRS BY BIT Ter RE BUFF OF SIDENTS
United States Demoeracy's Mistreat'
ment OF Negro Target In World
Political Affairs

"The Negro in America has
far bigger job than he thinks In
contending for his democratic
rights.' said President Mordecai
Johnson of Howard u, in address
sing an overflow gathering at
the Pine st. Y Sunday Forum.
He pictured the minority group
of 100000 in the midst of this
country as affording America It's
opportunity to win in the political
war of the great powers by show
ing by treatment of them that
democracy can work.
The task Of the Negro in the
next ten years is to help Presi.
dent Harry S. Truman to get the
leaders of the South to believe in
their own country's democracy,
DR.. Johnson stressed.
Pointing out that Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt of the United Nationals
World Civil Rights Commission
had stated that the most embar-
assing problem faced by her in
influencing the other nations Of
the world to believe in United
States Democracy is tne mis-
treatment of the Negro. He warn
ed that the South had weakened
the country's strength by its bit
ter rebuff of the President Civ
il Rights recommendations to
Congress.
The speaker stated that both
the appeal of President Truman
and recent actions of the U. S.
Supreme Court in decisions strik-
ing at discrimination were great
ly influenced by the fact that
they know the world is evaulat-
ing American Democracy, the last
remaining great Democracy,
which is in desperate competition
with Communism and Socialism.
He characterized the South's
reaction to the Presidents action
as targic. He stated that the an
swer came back in unamimity
that must be shocking to every
friend of Democracy in the world.
He declared that Truman was
asking for the South to try de-
mocracy and the things that the
American Constitution stands for
the right to vote; the right
to earn a living; the right to
equal protection under the law
and protection from discrimina-
tion.
The South practically told the
President "h-1 no. Take the stuff
up in Massachusett and New
York and peddle it but you can't
sell it down here" DR.. Johnson
stated.
He said that by their action,
the Southern leaders were busy
with the sword cutting. the throat
of their country.
The South has mistreated its
felIowmen SO long that it has al
lowed it to become blind. They
fail to see their wrongs.
The most disappointing results
of the Southern reaction was to
see the Governor of North Caro-
lima, one Of the most progressive
States in the south, fall in line
with its attitude, as well as the
president of Washington u, a
member of such an eminent fam
lily as the Comptons as deplored
by DR.. Johnson.
Turning to discrimination in re-
ligious, DIR. Johnson condemned
the Baptist Church School, Will
Iiam-Jewell College at Liberty,
Mo-, and praised the action of
the Catholic denomination in re-
moving restriction in its schools
in st. Lois.

Add the sugar and salt. Stir until
the sugar is dissolved, then chill.
Just before serving add the ginger
ale.
Candied cranberries: Candied
cranberries are Christmas-red in
color, bright, plump and semi-trans-
parent and are good either as a
sweetmeat or garnish. They are easy
to make but take time. For ! pound
or quart of berries use 3 cups sugar
and 2 cups water. Select large, firm,
perfect berries, wash and drain.
Make 2 or 3 small Sits in each
berry with the point of a knife. In
a large saucepan boil sugar and wa
ter together until clear. When cool,
add berries, bring slowly to the boil
ing point, then remove from the
stove and let stand overnight. (The
pan should be large enough to allow
all berries to float On top of the
syrup during the cooking. If the
berries are heated too quickly, the
skins will burst before they absorb
the syrup
Next day drain the syrup from the
berries and boil until it is thick.
Allow the syrup to cool, add the
berries, heat slowly and cook gently
3 or 4 minutes. Allow berries to
stand in syrup 2 hours or more.
Then cook slowly for the third time
just S minutes. Allow berries to
stand in thick syrup overnight,
warm on the stove until the syrup
will pour easily, and drain berries
from the syrup. Spread them on a
rack covered with cheesecloth to
dry. Store in a tightly covered jar
for a Christmas sweetmeat or gar
nish.

EMPLOYEE RATING SYSTEM HEARING IS
 SET FOR APRIL 19

ANCHORAGE-Judge Anthony J Dimond has set April 19 as the date for hearing case which seeks to invalidate the experience rating sys- tem oi Territorial employers.
 The suit was filed in the name of Felton H. Griffen, President of the American Territorial Fedora ton of Lacor, last July II. Stipula- tions by both counsels had stretched the date of hearing until at least Feb. IS.
 Attorney J. Gerald Williams, one of the counsels for the defendant, sought continuation until at least May. Attorney Stanley J. McCutch- con. counsel for Griffin, hoped that trial would be set not later than April l.
 Defending with Williams is Attor- ney H. l.. Faulkner of Juneau, and Attorney General Ralph Rivers Faulkner submitted an affidavit for continuance on the grounds that he has teen compelled to have medical attention done to his eye, forcing him from his work for long time.
 The case was filed against R. E. Sheldon, Executive Director of the

of advertising manager at the Empire and went from there to enlist in the U. $ Army in March, 1942.
 He returned to Juneau in Janu- ary, 1947, to work for KINY as announcer and news reporter In March, 1947, he also accepted part-time reporting work for the Empire. February l he was offered a promotion to assistant manager at KINY but decided, a few days later, to accept position with the Empire as full time reporter.
 Flood brings a background of considerable experience to KINY. He will be joined here in the near future by his wife.

 He was dressed for the part Loops of gold braid adorned both should CTS. Air Force service patches blcs- somed on his sleeves. Two rows Of vari-colored ribbons illuminated his chest. Upon his jaunty cap were two circles of officers braid and sil- yer bars.
 But U. s. Army Chaplain, A. D. Mann, lifted an eye brow and tele- phoned ahead. Awaiting the super pilots triumphant arrivad were two frowning MP's.
 They booked him for impersonat- ing an officer.
