NORTH STAR POSTAL
ALLIANCE ELECTS
STOKES PRESIDENT

The North Star Branch Of the
Postal Alliance elected officers at
their last meeting Sunday, Oct. 9.
President is Hyland A. Stokes,
vice president, Tolhe J. Flippen,
secretary-treasurer, Wendell C.
Jones, assistant secretary-treas-
urer, for the st. Paul division,
George C. Munden, and reporter,
Boyd A. Wright.
During the business meeting,
funds were appropriated from the
organizations treasury to support
fellow workers charged with dis
loyalty under the Truman loyalty
executive order.
This rule has put on the spot
dozens of militant Negro postal
workers whose aggressiveness
was seized upon as evidence of
disloyalty.

CROSS SECTION OF CITIZENS QUESTIONED
FAVOR cITY-WIDE ORGANIZATION TO
HELP IN COMMUNITY PLANNING

Of persons besides the too over
worked social workers"
Mrs. Cecil Bagby, 95S Sc. An
thong Ave, commented that ''if
an people work together in this
organization, II would be a good
thing. Such an organization, with
one central head would do away
with Implications, and with one
religious or social group doing its
bit and nothing more. Such an
organization should strive TO get
young people and parents parti-
cipating for community good"
Rev. H. W. Bolts. 1919 Lyndale
Ave. No, pastor Of Zion Baptist
church, Minneapolis, said that
such Capitalization Of power
would be good II II were thorough
ly prepared to speak for the
people. However, the present or
CARNATIONS, the Urban League,
NAACP and Phyllis WheatIey
house all work toward the same
thing, and should be supported"
Henry Thomas, head resident Of
Phyllis Wheatley House, thinks
there is need for coordination Of
work and ideas among Negro
people because Of the problems
common to all of US. Whether the
organization is an informal as
ISOLATION OF present organizations
1t could serve TO channel general
problems to the general Negro
Negro community.

BRIDGE GROUPS REFUSE
NEGRO MEMBERSHIP;
MINNESOTA VOTES YES

NEW YoRK-The $4,000 mem
bers of the American Contract
ridge League voted seven to five
against admission of Negro MEM
bers, it was announced last week
end.
Russell J. Baldwin, business
manager for the League. said the
findings would go to the board Of
directors for official action at the
annual meeting in December.
He said the pro-Negro vote car
ried New York, New Jersey and
the New England states by a
large majority, and showed small
er margins in Wisconsin, Mime
sofa and Washington.
Most Of the Midwestern and
Far Western states voted against
Negro membership, and the South
was solidly against 1t, he said.
