1t won't be very merry Christ

tions.
That is the advice of Capt.
Rhoda Milliken. head of the Po-

shoppers who make themselves
easy victims of all manner of
Yuletide thieves.
Just pay attention and every
thing will be all right, Capt. Milli-
ken said. Don't leave your purse
on a store counter out of sight.
If your purse has a shoulder strap
don't let it dangle behind your
back; you can't watch it, but
others can.
And for goodness sake don't
leave it open-for any hand to
dip into" Capt. Milliken added.
The policewoman also warned
against the folly of counting
money in public, either in crowded
stores or on buses and streetcars:

 Poor Housing
 The housing condition is a pa thetic subject. The Negroes have been pushed into the dingiest, most unsanitary districts in town-many of them who have money to buy their own homes in better sections i of town, or rent in better sections 1 of town, cannot do so because of the fact that their faces are black. Few have been fortunate enough. What good is money if you can't spend it as you want to? Of course, many of these conditions, as much as I hate to say it, have been brought on by ourselves.
 Many landlords have said they would be glad to rent to Colored people but colored people don't take care of the property, and in some instances they are right. Some landlords have even told me that were they to rent to Negroes they would spoil the value of their prop erty. Many of the houses in which Waterbury's Negroes live should be condemned such as the one on Bishop Street which has just re- gently been condemned. Even in our projects Negroes have been segregated into the most unde- sirable section. In the better and newer projects of Waterbury there is not a Negro to be seen.
 No Bus Drivers
 Hundreds of Negroes ride the buses daily yet there is not Colored driver on one of them. Upon inquiring or applying for the job, Negro persons are either told they are too heavy, too short, or too tall, there is always some little excuse which manages to keep them out, and I guess there always will be until we demand our right and go forth and prove that we are just as good as the white man, and just as capable. For once we get the position we must hold on to it firm ly and try to help another Negro get up where we are, because only in unity is there power. There are many Negroes who are fighting this barrier with the aid of some white people who believe in De- mocracy Next week I shall tell you about one of the barrier fight CTS.
