We need not have a lip for peace
And mind for a bloody war
Who was it that taught US to fear
our God
1t was dear old Ma and Pa.
There are a very few Mas and Pas
behind
It's daddy and mama | hear
Ma and Pa they trained US right
There was a God to fear.
A God fearing people pray for
peace
And walk that narrow path
When they have marched out to
the end
They sing to God Pm free at last.
When you have spent a life for
the world
Then spend your sick days for
Christ
A very little work you can do for
God
You have given the world your
best life.
| expect to write a book on Light
For the people to read some day
That they may let their minds
On Jesus Christ stay.
When we can bring shame back
to life
Then we can look for peace
AS long as the world has no share
1t is war from the greatest to
the least.
To educate this young race today
The world should know our
Christ
Shame will make a better world
For every race of life
Clean Gods house out today
And separate from all sin
Then you can live a child of God
In every church you enter in.
Stop fighting in Gods house today
And claiming a holy life
Be what you claim to be
And live a life for Christ.

Time For Sound Thinking
(The Atlanta Daily World

Every southerner of reasonable intelligence and
goodwill should find himself in complete agreement with
the pronouncement by the Southern Regional Council
Board of Directors in Atlanta last Wednesday when they
urged the appointment of Negroes to policy making
boards and commissions of the South Council President
Paul d. Williams in releasing the resolutions said
I'VE are facing a crisis today because of failure
to admit Negroes to partnership in public life By
so doing now the South tap of ability
and craftsmanship and open up of common cti-
zenshp."
Termng the several equalization suits filed by
Negroes in Federal courts recently the fruits of
bad faith the leaders said There is every to
believe that Negro plaintiffs like the defendants would
prefer less expensive and cooperative method
of reaching agreement"
Properly, the confess pointed out that there
certain politicians interested in votes than in pro-
gress shouting defiance at the courts and seeking
to ncte the public to anger But that such protestatons
neither justified constructive For in view of
the Souths long view of naction, it is hardly surprs
ing that Negroes turning with increasing frequency
to the courts for the remedy to old injustices.
We repeat, the advice from the Southern Regional
Council is sound and timely Negroes at this be-
lated hour would prefer listening to sound program
for equalizng their schools with those of the whites
rather than proceed into the courts to have them equaz
ed But it is expecting too much of them to think that
they going to be willing to wait indefinitely for these
guarantees, especially in the face of such clustering
threats some of the state leaders are offering.

THAT Good Goldcrest 5D while
listened to the conversations going
on among the folks from here,
there, and yonder, who only make
it into town every Saturday. Now
back not so long ago there was in
vented song, sung lots amongst
Aunt Haggar's Chilluns, titled
THAT'S THE STUFF YOU GOT

the high school and college kids
in their Pep Squads sang it lus-
tily, as come-on to victory. What
the folks were talking about that

it to me, A Editorial" subject,
THAT'S THE STUFF YOU GOT

publisher is my great and good

And when it come to the Folks"
when you're out in front of 'em
like my great and good friend
Rev. Hume is as President of the
General Baptist State Convention
of Mississippi, you'll find it to be
a devil of a time trying to say
something to please all of 'em, all

front of the "Folks" don't get into
no hot water till he stumbles and
says something that don't please
none of the Folks" all together
and at the same time. Now, l amt

what | heard the Folks" saying
as l sat down to indulge my Sat

of 'em was of the Baptist Per-

most of us is. Seeing my great
and good friend Rev. Hume, way

Cigarette Co.
Hires Five
Negro Statesmen

NEW YORK - The American
Tobacco Co., makers of Lucky
Strike Cigarettes and Roi Tan
cigars, has five Negro statesmen
who will represent the company
in some of the most important
metropolitan markets in the coun-
try. The new statesmen chosen in
clude Jacques M. Fairfax, of As
bury Park, N. j., and Joseph L.
Sydnor, of Jersey City, who will
represent Roi Tan cigars in the
New York area; and Stanley w.
Tate, of Chicago; Fred N. Grant,
of New York, and William H.
Thompson, of Lansing, Mich, all
of whom will be Lucky Strike Gig
arctic representatives.
All of the new statesmen have
had college education and their as
signments, according to the com
pany, will entail responsibilities
in keeping with their training.
Fairfax, who will work in the
Harlem area, is a graduate of Lin
coin University, in Pennsylvania,
where he was active in boxing and
football; while Syndor, who will
share the area with Fairfax in
Roi Tan promotion, was student
at Hampton Institute, in Virginia.
William H. Thompson, who will
cover the Detroit metropolitan
area for Lucky Strike, saw mill
tary service in the last World
War and was discharged in 1916.
He returned to the Michigan State
College of Business Administra-
ton that year and was given his
degree last March. The new ap-
pointee was associated with the A.
w. Curtis Laboratories, makers of
DR.. George w. Carver products.

In the November A issue of The
Afro-American, James L. Hicks
reported from Tokyo that he had
seen on a train in Japan IL men,
bers of the oath Infantry who had
been convicted by general courts

enemy" and had been sentenced
to long terms Of Imprisonment at
hard labor. Mr.. Hicks said he was
not permitted to talk to the men,
who were under heavy guard.
Frank Whisonant, repor ting
from Taejon, Korea, in The Cour-
Ter of November IL, said that
"ninety-nine and nine-tenths per
cent of the men tried" before court
martial boards were Negro troops
from the oath Infantry. One man,
he said, had been convicted and
sentenced to life Imprisonment af-
ter a three-hour trial. He OBJ
served "two long lines of Negroes
going through the two military
courts of Justice set up in Taejon."
Coming on the heels of the con-
viction of 1t. Leon Gilbert and
Hanson w. Baldwin's sheer at Ne

Of November 3, the reports of these
cases seem to fit into a pattern
designed to discredit the heroic
performance of Negro soldiers in
Korea" Mr. Marshall said.

he continued, "that throughout the
early phases of the war, American
troops, white as well as Negro,

and convictions of white troops"

Things That
Interest Women
HOW Do YOU LOOK?
By BESSIE F, BELL

In few days you will no doubt
begin to prepare to greet the royal
bird and all the trimmings.
But ! warn you girls, unless you
are careful and mind your Galleries
you may easily during the one
week of glorious Thanksgiving
holiday time destroy all of your
good rating in the class of beauty
Would you like to know one OF
the basic principles for the vari-
Gus figure types? If you happen
to be over feet, seven, you are a
tall girl. 1t is therefore import
ant that you avoid the up and
down lines that make you appear
taller.
Are you 5 feet, three, or less
Then you are shortie. And you
are able to wear those up and
down lines that your tall sister is
advised to keep away from. The
short girl should not wear manish
clothes. They are too over-power-
ing for your type, instead they
should strive to achieve the soft
effect in detail.
Some of us are stop heavy
Meaning that you are slim, but
you have full bust. You naturally
will want to turn attention in some
other direction. Wear lines that
will make your slim hips look even
simmer. This does not mean that
you should wear tight-fitting skirts
nor does it mean that you should
wear clothes with fussy detail
rather now should strive for the
happy medium.
1t your hips are IL inches OF
more larger than your waist, YOU
are plain hippy, which is not good
Now you work in reverse to the top
heavy girl.
Try to get the eyes on the upper
part Of your figure but remember
you will not be able to wear tight
fitting skirts unless you wish to
appear even more hippy.

Luncheon at Sardi's where the

among the many ladies of fashion
invited by the Blaine Thompson
Company, in celebration of Nation

ionable right" Currie Mum. Dur
press interview with some of the
leading designers, she placed her
much publicized lucite handbag on
the table. For a moment the bag
instead of gloves almost stole the
show.
So girls carry lucite bag for
high fashion, but l warn you
everyone will know it's contents.
since it looks like clear glass.
This bag was exquisite with a
bullt-ln watch, with the face of the
watch showing through the clear
lucite bag.
