FOR MEMPHIS
MY father
The Polar Contrapuntals


Last week | said that the polar
contrapuntals were the key to
world peeace, and felt as silly as
anyone could ever feel. You see
that is such a simple statement
that it maks me greatly ashamed
to say anything so simple; for the
polar contrapuntals are the uni
versals SO universal that one can
say that they are universally
universal. You find them every
where, and everywhere in vry-
thing; if not in form or in sub
stanc, then in relation.
They must have been the
THING Socrates was talking
about lest the Athenians of his
age should believe that HELP or
HARM for themselves existed out
side of themselves. For Socrates
knww that within the Athenians,
as in all men, was the power to
cancel any program set up a.
round them for them or against
them: know Thyself,' the
Wise One said, meaning q think
Look not to Pythagorean, tech
nician, or specialist, or expert,
for salvation or for WAYS and
MEANS"
0 dear his is very hard writing.
But let US go ON:
People and peoples are Judged
according to their faith, their
teachings, and their practices in
regards to the POLAR CONTRAP- |
INITIALS, greatest of which are
human persons), as the Polar
Contrapuntals are really what
CIVILIZATION, English or 9th
erwise, is all about.
AS race group, we are chill |
dren of the WILD-(So Something's
like the wilderness of the world)
and our PAIN and sorrow is
that we are left out in the OPEN.
Wild, while our humanity is
calling for union with the rest
of the world and with each other.
Polar contrapuntals call for Po-
lar Contrapuntals, and in the
OPEN Wild, there is very little
of anything, if anything.
When l came upon this prin-
ciple as the secre of SATIRE,
the principle of polar contrap-
untals-(two years l hesitated to
'use the term until | could think
1T through thoroughly and see
exactly what It was that my mind
was calling POLAR CONTRAP-
UNIALS)-l knew [ had found
it frs because of my own per-
sonal need for friends, compan-
ions, cheer, and love, and then
because of the geeral ned of our
race group for full appreciation
of our bleeding need for LOVE
and PLACE. (Our fault however,
is that we look outside Ourselves
for the solution of mans univer-
sal needs and expect salvation
from some source not channeled
within US. Yet the one thing we
must do, at all costs, is to keep
union with the rest of theworld
And THAT we do, God bless u.s.. J

Mr.. Convention Goer dug down
into his pockets at the rate OF
$22.92 a day during his visit to
Washington last year.
But he couldn't compare with
the convention delegate at Miami
Beach in 1948, who was free
spender to the tune of $3315 a
day, or the New York delegate who
managed to dispose of $33,07 each
day.
Nonetheless, some 10000 dele
gates to the 230 conventions held
here in 1948 rang up new spend
ing record for Washington-an
estimated $12,055,890.
A survey of 48 convention cities
conducted by the international
Association of Convention Bu-
reaus and released last night by
the Greater National Capital
Committee of the Washington
Board of Trade gave this picture
of the average convention dele
gate here:
His stay in the city was about
AZ days and his total expendi-
lures while here were $101.31. This
does not include his costs for
travel to and from Washington.
Spent S1.s2 on Sightseeing.
He was not much of a sightseer
spending only $192 for such pur-
poses. This would indicate he
was too busy attending various
meetings to visit Washington's
tourist attractions.
But after the days work. ne
found time either for little night
clubbing or attending some sports
event. His total in this category
was $455.
His bill at the liquor store OF
bars was just $5.47.
He spent $1104 In retail stores
perhaps for gifts to take home
to the wife and children.
The average delegate spent hi
smallest amount on movies
further indication that his stay
here meant business and not
pleasure. The total was only II
cents.
His largest single expense dur.
ing the AZ days was for meals
estimated at $21.88 in hotel din
ing rooms and 1888 in other
eating places.
His hotel room. including Incl.
dentals, came to S2948.

Word has spread that Wash

Mr.. Arata said. During the war
the city was "out of the conven-
ton business" he added. but this
has changed materially.
The committee has estimated
that Washington does a combined
convention tourist business OF
$60,0O0,O00 annually. On the
basis of the new survey, 1t now
