We are a little puzzled over the dedica-

believe it cane about twenty-odd years late

when the entire country is planning pro-

a little ironical that Little Rock Negroes

Worth Repeating

merica is that men and women of high in
fluence and leadership have been silent when
they should have been vocal. AS much as we
appreciated the leadership of the late Presi-
dent Roosevelt, we all must remember that
the Man from Hyde Park was slow to speak
out in condemnation of lynching, segregation
and other despicable forms Of race hate Wal
lace when he had the chance, was voice
crying in the wilderness.
We never can forget that memorable oc-
casion when, despite the fact he must have
known he was losing the Vice-Presdencv. ne
stood in the Democratic National Convention
and hurled a philippe against wrong that
made his friends trembe for him. We were
gazing at him as that unruly mop Of hair fell
down over his forehead as he hurled right
eouS invectiVe upon those assembled in that
vast throng. That is the Henry Wallace we
know and love. We like a man who lets his
conscience guide him in critical moments.
Henry Wallace shuns expediency and never
sets his sail to catch the passing breeze.
Henry Wallace believes in peace II is
because he has challenged the war monrers
in this country, he is being showed into the
discard and lacks the following that he once
had. While he believes in peace he at the
time is patriotic enough to split with his
party when IT adopts program which in
dicates desire not to support the current
war now in progress in Korea. We have in
mind that while Wallace believes a different.
~ organized government might have lodged

of every loyal American to join in extracting

he debated the subject and concluded:

And so we drop tear as we observe a
true friend of freedom stepping back from
the front ranks. 1t will take the oncominp
years to see Henry Wallace in proper per.
spective. He is a great American Long NAV
he live to offer advice and wisdom to those
who see through the glass of life darkly.

James Nelson: In Memoriam-
By S. S. Taylor, Associate Editor

Today we call attention TO James Mel
con whose story was published in the STATE
PRESS last August The public probably
thinks of James Nelson, if it thinks of him
at all, as a man killed fighting the police We
have no brief for or against the police affair
it was an incident if not an accident. We
memorabilia here James Nelson in his role
of gallant defender of Negro Womanhood.
Do you remember the story. white
man was alleged to have attempted the rape
of a Negro girl in Nelson's neighborhood.
He escaped Nelson claimed he was hiding in
the woods nearby and tried to organize
posse to hunt him. Complaints that Nelson
was disturbing the peace brought in the
police on whom he is said to have fired on
with fatal results to himself. In the hospital
he said II was just trying to do something
about Lee Shepherd
Whether or not James Nelson fired the
first shot, whether or not the state and city
police justified in Kidding him with bullets,
whether or not he had fortified himself with
wine and liquor before sallying forth on his
quxotic mission, whether or not he was hard
TO get along with, whether or not he was a
squatter holding land that did not belong to
him, or a legitimate buyer being cheated out
of his rights, the fact we memoralize is
that James Nelson's death came behind a
heroic and farng race pride that drove a
feeble old colored man out to recruit men

A. ]. Siggins, British journalist COM
ments, Eastern leaders, including Nehru OF
India and Chang Kai-shek admit that the
people of Asia have no confidence In the
West"
II can be readily understood that the rea-
son for this is that the western powers, the
United States, Britain and France, have eX-
plotted the colored peoples of the world, and
now. they ask these same peoples to fight a
long side them. (They say nothing of the
fact that they tell them in America that they
are not good enough to sit beside them In
a theatre or on a bus).
The white man still refuses to give the
colored people credit for having a little
sense He still believes that any eolored man
is ignorant enough To be kicked around and
love it.

Natures Children
By LilIion Cox Athey
CrayhSh.


Crayflsh are funny fellows which
prefer to walk backward on the
waters of still pools, along brook
sides and river margins you come
across their lookout towers. From
their tower they watch with interest
all that is going on about them.
Otherwise they hide in the water.
Their shell is f1ecked and colored
so that you rarely find them.
They are important neighbors.
Their duty is to keep the resident
waters free from all offensive de-
caying animals and vegetable mat
ter. As scavengers they do their
duty we'll. The brook becomes a
safe place for small fish, insects and
turtles.
Crayfish apparently take life easy.
They are well equipped for their way
of life, with an abundance of legs,
excellent fighting nippers and coat
of armor protecting the tender body.
There are small jaw-feet to serve
as forks when food is being eaten,
a wide fan-shaped tail serves for
swimming. The eyes, are on stalks
so they can be directed into dark
corners and all sorts of places. The
antennae are capable of picking up
vibrations
In April the mother spreads
hundreds of eggs or berries" Later
when her offspring hatch, they keep
their place with her for two weeks
before departing on their own. A
crayfish lives to be years old.
Like insects they have to shed
their old skin in order to have more
room. The tight shells split down
the center back The tender body II
pulls from it to the very last claw
Now the crayf1sh is in an embrass-
ing and helpless position. Until the
skin hardens, the tender flesh is
easily injured and the nippers are
too soft to fight with. The crayflSh
wisely seeks privacy.
Outside of policing the brook
stream or pond, the crayfiSh has no
other duties. These funny back
ward walkers are never still long
They may fight with each other and
loose nipper, which does not dis
turb them over much.
