ridiculed the proposals OF the
National Association of Manu-
facturers to curb initiation.
Senator O'Mahoney, saying
that 1--WE can't defeat initiation
with feather duster," gave a
detailed account of how uncon-
trolled prices, profits, and black mar
kets are continually strengthening
their hold over the economic future OF
the average American. He declared:
Corporate Profits Up $3.50 Plus
Corporate profits in the first nine
months of 1947, after paying taxes,
are greater than corporate profits for
the entire II months of 1916, which
were the largest in history"
He presented long lists of examples
to prove this, giving the names of
the companies and their profits.
Selecting one sample at random:
The U. S. Steel Corporation netted
S97,306,461 in the 1947 nine months,
compared to $57,467 1894 in the 1916
entire year In other words, profits
nearly doubled.
These profits raise steel prices, and
they are still further boosted by the
steel gray market" which O'Mahoney
described in detail Other industries
he said, also have their gray" and
'black'' markets.
Will such profiteering be remedied
by the voluntary price controls" now
being proposed in congress? O'Ma-
honey asked the senate.
Are we going to try to fool the
people of America? They will not be
fooled by that sort of stuff. They
know that prices are going up. They
know they will continue to go up
unless the peoples government does
something about it.
1--WE shall be deceiving ourselves"
O'Mahoney declared, eff we imagine
we can turn over the economy of this |
nation to the small group Of men who
sit at the top of our economic system,
and issue their orders as a private |
government, which every man in
America must obey.
Private RECOMMENDATION
eve talk about RECOMMENDATION by !
government, but these rising prices
and swelling profits tell us what priv
ate RECOMMENDATION does.

 While it seems unnecessary for me to repeat that I do not actively seek or covet any office and have no plans for leaving my post in Japan, I can say, and with due humility, that I would be recreant to all by concepts of good citizen ship were I to shrink because of the hazards and responsibilities involved from accepting any pub lie duty to which I might be called by the American people"
 MacArthur's announ m n t widened still further an already bulging Republican field.
 And MT. Truman's decision to run drove a new wedge into the Democratic party split over his civil rights program.
 His action killed any practical hope of Dixie party members for a compromise candidate.
 Politicians generally agree that now the President has spoken the nomination cannot be denied him.

You'll howl at Aunt Polly" who is "so nervous''-you'll thrill when you see Huck fighting for his ideals, you'll double up with mirth when you see handsome young Fred Raymond trying to propose to Aunt Ruth"

Negro Dies In Civil Rights Argument

MOBILE, Ala. (P Detective captail Tally Rollings said yester- day a 20-year-old white mechanic had signed a statement that he beat a Negro to death during an argument over President Truman's civil rights program.
 Rollings said the mechanic, Hor- ace M. Miller, stated he fought with the Negro, Rayfield Davis, last Sunday night, but that he did not know about Davis death until he read about it in the paper the next day.
 Rollings said both men were civilian employees at the Brook ley air force base here.
 The detective said that Miller, accompanied by his attorney, sur rendered at police headquarters early yesterday and dictated statement.

PROFITS OF LARGE AND
SMALL CORPORATIONS

Profits of the largest corporations,
those with assets of over 100 million
dollars, increased by almost so per
cent in the first three months of 1913
as compared to the same period in
1947.
Profits of the smallest corpora
tons in 1913 were only half of 1947
profits.
The largest corporations benefited
from the 20 billion dollar Marshall
Plan and rearmament expenditures.
They received the bulk of the profit
able government expenditures to in
crease prices, reducing workers real
income. And small business found
itself squeezed between the higher
prices for raw materials and lack of
consumer purchasing power prof

tern of world relations are con
cerned. Nevertheless, we are wor-
ried by callous public discussion of
plans for atomic warfare. When
scientists cry out for re-organiza-
ton of the world because new sci
ence and technology have made the
old system inadequate, they are told
to stick to the explanation of scien-
tific and chronological facts, and
leave politics to those who under
stand it. We are worried that Gen
eral Spaatz's advice of how best to
prepare to fight and win the next
atomic war, will be listened to as the
opinions of a distinguished specialist,
but his eloquent appeal for making
this war impossible by political
means, will be dismissed as another
case of an expert talking lightly
about things, the difficulties of which
he does not understand. - Eugene

lives and possessions of Americans.
The alternative is to force Americans
to commit, in the name of self-pres-
ervation, deeds of surprising bru-
tally.
Since the editorial in this issue
was written, a second article by
General Spaatz has appeared in
Life, on August 16. Following
are its final paragraphs:
ITO the present postwar crisis we
with our unmatched air
power and our policy of uncondi-
tional surrender, have been heavy, if
contributors. In Ger
many we ruined an industrial and
commercial complex that must be re-
built if Europe is ever to stand on
its own feet again. In Japan we
persisted in carrying the war to the
home cities of an already beaten
enemy. Yet powerful groups in
both countries had long before the
md recognized that their war was

Iso too serious for politicians?

also too serious for politicians
Knowing the unlimited destructive
power of a modern industrial state,
we must think of our military might
as a necessary but no more than tenn
porary prop to our civilization.
"When the statesmen of the world
have perfected some political formu-
la for replacing war between nations,
we will no longer have to maintain
the most powerful air force in the
world. And unless the good society
is able to produce such political
formula an atomic war may end in
the most tragic of paradoxes: the
good society, in attempting to des-
troy evil, may destroy itself"
We said before that we have no
quarrel with the military experts for
blueprints for atomic war
fare. We now see that one of them,
at least, has no quarrels with us, as
far as the belief in the insanity of
var and the necessity of a new pat

lost. Had we been able to solve this
basic human problem, which lay in
the realm of politics, the war might
have been brought to a satisfactory
end before both countries had been
hammered to almost irretrievable
ruin.
"This human, political problem is
still with us. We can look to mill
tary measures for our security in
Phase l, and probably in Phase II.
Assuming that we keep our present
lead in technical skill and in indus
trial equipment, we may expect with
some assurance that even Phase III
war would find us the victor" But
what sort of victory would it be, and
what would be it's rewards, if it
required the destruction of half the
wcrld?

conduct of war is too serious to be

Where Does a Coop Begin?
That's where Cooperation begins.

That's where Cooperation begins.
So what do you do? You and your neigh
bors decide to chip in and buy comparatively.
You and your neighbors are going to share in
the ownership and savings You are not inter
ested in profits, but in service and savings
After a couple of seasons you find that
your Coop is doing fine. So you decide to keep
control over your business all the way. You
begin thinking about marketing comparatively
all the way. You want voice in the big market
places, where prices for what you sell and buy
are fixed.
1t all started as an idea. But it was an idea
strong enough to take root in the minds of
thousands of farmers.

A few months later the name Of
the church was changed to Randle
Highland Baptist Church in honor
of Col. Randle, who gave two lots
on which the first building stood
and the present structure stands.
On November 2, 1922, the church's 6
name was again changed, this time
to its present one of Fountain Me-
mortal Baptist Church in honor of
the late Mr.. Fountain. A member
and Sunday school superintendent
of the East Washington Heights
Baptist Church, Mr.. Fountain was
among the first to recognize the
need of a Baptist church in the area
where the congregation bearing his
name now is situated. One of the
founders of the church, he also
served as treasurer, trustee and
Sunday school teacher.
The present edifice was built In
1941, replacing the original structure
