In Life
Basketball season at Dunbar is
practically over. During the play
ing season many games were play
ed; several games were won while
more were lost The school is
not discouraged, but instead feels
that probably it is lesson in
life that will be of great benefit
to students. Life is a game; there
are times when one wins and there
are times when one loses, but
the person who really makes the
contribution is one who doesn't
quit when faced with opposition
and obstacles, but who fights
through this opposition and con-
siders every failure a challenge
to the very best that is in him.
This school year there were
many students who were out for
the very first time, and none with
very much experience in the game.
All players worked hard for their
team and they all deserve COM
mendation However, there is one
little tenth grade girl who came
out for her first year with so
much capacity for playing the
game that the public should be
given the benefit of knowinf of 7
her success This player is Jewel t
Hill. The school is proud of tie
team and of Jewel and hopes
that each has learned something
in playing the game of basketball
that will assist them in earring
on the game of life.
Sunday School
Many years ago the idea of Sun
day school was started by Robert
Raiks, who for a lack of time
during the week taught children
on Sunday. During this teaching
period THE Bible was the prin-
cipal subject taught, At one time
Sunday School and public schools
were very closely related. Since
then the two have been separat-
ed, the principal of Dunbar has
asked that each student be encour-
aged to attend Sunday School
each Sunday and on Monday a
check is made to see the number
of students who attended the pre-
vious Sunday Homerooms one
hundred percent in attendance will
have banner for the week.

DR.. Sloan's visit is principally

has been active in establishing
such an office in Liberia, staff by
a young American Negro and

Grain Rations
Discussed In
New Leaflet

Lower costs in producing milk are
possible through more efficient feed
ing according to a new leaflet just
published by the University of Mary
land Extension Service Entitled
Grain Mixtures for the Milking
Herd" it is available from offices of
county agents or from the bulletin
room at the University of Maryland.
1t is free to residents of the state.
Fifteen different rations are sug-
gested with recommendation con-
corning their use. Maximum use is
made of homegrown grains and the
approximate percent protein in each
ration is listed. The lcaflet explains
that, the amount of grain needed by
each COW will depend on the daily
amount of milk she produces. The
amount of protein needed in the grain
mixture will vary with the kind and
quality Of hay, silage and other
roughage fed" Information given
with each ration tells the kind of hay
with which it should be used
The new leafIet,- number L6, also
discusses use of minerals, vitamins
and water in the cows diet.

A. g. p. Officials
To Fight Suit To
Dissolve Organization

Describing the suit to dissolve The
Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Com
pany as threat to the welfare and
living standards of every American
citizen, officials Of the company an
nounced they would oppose it with
every legitimate means.
The suit, filed in the Federal Court
for the Southern District of New
York, asked the court to dispose of
its manufacturing and processing ia
cilities and break up the company in
to smaller chains.
The statement said in part:
"This action is a threat to the well
fare and living standards of every
American citizen. If successful, it will
mean less food on every dinner table
and fewer dollars in every pay en-
velope.
"This is not just an effort to de-
stroy A & p but an attack on the en-
tire system Of efficient low-cost, low
profit mass distribution which this
company pioneered.
"A & p was the first chain store in
this country and the methods we de-
velopcd have been adopted by other
grocers, as well as merchants in other
lines. There are today literally hun
dreds Of chain stores and voluntary
groups of individual merchants oper-
ating with the same methods and in
the same pattern here under attack.
"If the antitrust lawyers succeed
in destroying A & P, the way will be
cleared for the destruction of every
other efficient large-scale distributor.
"Obviously, it is the theory of the
antitrust lawyers that the people Of
America have no right to patronize a
company if their patronage will make
that company grow; and that any big
business must be destroyed simply
because it is big, and even if the pub
lie gets hurt in the process.
This action is just opposite to the
purpose Of the antitrust laws, which
were meant to increase competition
and keep prices down; for if it sue
ceeds, it will serve only to cut down
competition and force prices up. A.
and P's. policy always maintained
and kept alive the spirit of COMPETE
ton.

no effort to commercialize her posi-
tion in the White House. She has
made no money for herself. Nor, so
far as known, has any Truman rela-
tive, aide or friend. Whereas, under
the Roosevelts the entire family
played the game with vast zest and
success, the dollars rolling merrily in
from all quarters. Mr.. Roosevelt him
self personally encouraged all this in
various ways, including personal use
of White House advantages to pad his
own unimpressive stamp collection to
the point where, when liqudated, it
was worth more than 100000.
That sort of thing, of course, bred
imitators and set the standard. Also
it put in class by themselves two
men of that time-one, Stephen B.
Early, who consistently refused big
money to write magazine articles
while connected with the White
House; the other John N. Garner,
who, in refusing a huge fee to speak
on the radio, said: THAT is too much
money for Jack Garner and the Vice
President of the United States is not
for sale" But did the performance of
the White House family along these
lines damage Mr.. Roosevelt? The
answer is mo" Indignation was al
most entirely confined to those in OPP
position anyway. 1t gave them addi-
tional reason for resentment but adj
ded nothing to their strength. AS to
his own following, it either stupidity
refused to believe the fact or swept
them aside as of no importance. The
sillier among them still meet every
revelation with loud beats about
Roosevelt haters," as though that
were an answer or would deter men
who revolt against such shameless
greed in high places from presenting
the truth.
The point is that the long years of
low-grade conduct in the White
House by the Roosevelts has lowered,
if not destroyed, the standards of the
people toward such things They do
not react against grating in high
places as formerly. There is no pub
lie excitement about General Vaughn s

connection with the Give per-
centers," no public demand that he be
dismissed Nor is there any particu-
lar interest in those deep freezes.
Similarly, no popular anger has been
aroused by the disclosure that Sena-
tor Styles Bridges, of Vermont, in ad-
dition to his Senate pay, has been
drawing a secret salary of $4,000 a
year as a member of John L. Lewiss
three-man welfare board, though the
improperly of that is obvious and
shocking. It has put him in the posi-
tion of a kept Senator" But no
action has been taken. None of his
colleagues has denounced him. He has
given up the salary but has not yet
admitted it was wrong to take it.
Apparently, he does not intend to-.
Apparently, the idea is that the
people will forget all about this in a
little while and do not care anyhow.
This is the most fragrant case of
senatorial improperly in long
while, but there have been other sena-
tors and other high officials whose
improprieties have been almost as
great. For example, there was a sena-
tor not too long ago who, during his
whole Senate service, was on the pay
roll of a corporation frequently inter-
ested in legislation before the Senate
at more than double his senatorial
salary. His was not an isolated in
stance. In the long past there were
one or two senators-notably Bailey,
of Texas, Foraker, of Ohio-who re-
ceived fees from a great oil corpo-

ration while in the Senate. There was
great deal of hot indignation over
that.
None of this is criminal. Neither
the Roosevelt family nor General
Vaughn nor the GIVE percenters"
have violated any law. Nor has Sena-
tor Bridges laid himself open either
to indictment or impeachment. Never
theless, what has been going on in
the White House, in the Senate and in
the departments cannot be reconciled
with any degree of gh-mindedness,
nor does it meet any recognized
moral standard. 1t falls short of dis
