"Negro Newspaper
Week"

Once again this nation and this
community are asked to join in
the 7th annual observance of
NEGRO Newspaper Week" AS a
truth which has been stated be-
fore and which still holds good to-
day, the Negro press is the cham
pion against violation of the rights
guaranteed us under the Consti-
tuition.
This year a broader concept of
the role of the Negro press is be-
ing emphasized. AS the governors
of several states where there is a
Negro press have pointed out.
''this important minority press
which, while serving the interests
of a special group, has protected
also the interests of all Ameri-
cans against encroachments, real
or potential, upon their civil lib
critics."
If analysis is necessary, a few
. simple facts should make this
statement clear. The Negro press
oftentimes has pleaded the case of
a Negro who, justly or not, has
insisted that the privileges and
immunities granted him under the
14th Amendment has been vio-
lated. The record shows that in no

Ford Will Not
Cut Prices

The Ford Motor company will
not follow the lead of General
Motors and cut prices. Ford an
nounced that it will boost produc-
ton substantially in the next
four months-but will not lower
prices.
A Ford vice president, j. R.
Davis, explained:
"We are not reducing the price
of our cors because of the cur
rent high level Of wages and ma
terial cost"
This is in strong co ntrast to
the General Motors statement,
which said prices were being cut
because of a cost of living wage
drop and the lower cost of GER
tain material items.
Competition is keen in the auto
industry and Ford's reaction to
the GIN cut was awaited with
much interest. The other member
of the big three, Chrysler, said il
welcomed the GIN price cut. But

Gated Chrysler did not intend to
follow suit.

that this important bill is passed.

that it is still not assured of pas
paseg. Powerful pressure from
business groups is still being ap-
piled, and must be counteracted by
pressure from tose sympathetic
with the bill.
Those who have given freely of
their time in the long struggle to
get an FEPC bill in Ohio assert
that it will not pass unless the
people show that they want it.
They request that a deluge of post
cards be dispatched in haste to
Columbus to the members of the
house of representatives request
ing them to vote favorably on the
FEPC bill. This is one way to as
sur passage of the bill which may
see it's fate decided this week.

white school in the entire country.
The performance was an extreme
ly effective and humorous one.
The cast seemed to enjoy the work
and when stage folk enjoy their
roles, they generally exceed them
selves in the quality of their per-
formances.
The climax to the show, how
ever, was a party staged in Burch
House, a large, imposing mansion
a few miles out of Yellow Springs
center, named after the founder
of the college. About 100 OF SO
folks gathered here in a party in
which racial barriers melted like
the winter snow during the spring
thaw. The house we PARTED in was
surely the house of democracy.
Till the early hours of the morn
ing the feature of the party was a
jam session participated in by sew
eral members O fthe Antioch band
and others who had their instru-
ments at hand. This was no "long
hear" music (Which is not to be
deprecated), but unrestrained jazz
and be-bop by a group Of mostly
young musicians Of all races sand
creeds.
It was almost unanimous among
those present that the prettiest,
most vivacious, most breataking
of the weaker sex there was a
young Negro girl who presumably
attends Antioch. And we mean she
was just that in every respect. I'm
fortunately we never did get to
meet her personally.
Here there was no tension, no
feeling that others just be-
ing mice" 1t was genuine, and
those who felt tense were strictly
out of place.
