 The brass band on the dock I played two stirring Leatherneck airs, "From the Halls of Monte zuma" and "Semper Fidelis."
 The Marines came loaded for heavy combat.
 They will go into battle behind Pershing M-26 tanks, weighing 45 tons and mounting a 90 nm. gun. |, There's been nothing like that on ! the American side so far. Russian made T-34's consistently have outgunned the American medium tanks.
 Flame throwers and the new tank-killer super-bazookas also were in the marine equipment.
 "We feel fine and hot to go," said Staff Sgt. Claude Bricker of Kansas City.
 ''No pain mo strain. We just want to get this over," said Staff Sgt. Leonard Libby of Granite City, Ill.
 They came from the Caroline hills, the streets of New York and the plains of the Midwest. They were a cross-section of America.
 They had been 20 days crossing the Pacific and had been expected two days earlier.

JUNEAU = Working on a spe- cial assignment to organize an Alaska travel association, George T. Armitage of Honolulu, Hawaii, will arrive in Alaska August 6 to assist the Alaska Development Board in a long-range effort to systematize and promote tourist travel to the Territory.
 Armitage, a recognized author ity in the travel industry, was ex- ecutive secretary of the Hawaii Tourist Bureau now Hawaii Visi- tors Bureau for 22 years and saw that organization develop into a model of community promotion and publicity methods that has brought remarkable growth in travel to Hawaii.
 The Alaska Development Board has been laying the groundwork for formation of a similar organ ization in this Territory. George Sundborg, consultant to the board, will travel with Armitage to vir- tually every community in Alaska in the: next month to confer with leaders of the business commun- ity and enlist Territory wide SUD- port for the proposed organiza- ton.
 Armitage will be making his second visit to Alaska, he having come here first in 1948. He is a former newspaperman, serv e d with the A. E. F. in Siberia in World War I, and has travelled extensively on the United States mainland, in Canada and around the Pacific in the interests of Ha- waii's tourist trade. He originated Hawaiian Tourfax, the Hawaii Comeback Club, Hawaii Unltd., and the Hawaiian Fall Festival, and initiated the program of color advertising for Hawaii in nation al magazines. Since 1922 he has been the head of a publishing business in Honolulu.
 Cooperating with the Alaska Development Board and Armita ge in this effort are the major trans portation companies serving the Territory, hotel men, travel agents, and chambers of com- merce.

You Are Treating
us Unfair
BY RICHARD w. PITTS

BY RICHARD w. PITTS
On Foreign soil our troops are
fighting;
In Europe and everywhere;
So when you fail to give Justice,
You are treating us Unfair.
Like ship out on the sea;
We are tossed to and fro.
But when our country goes to bat
tie;
We are ready to go.
At each horizon we intently gaze,
Expecting brighter day.
When racial prejudice will fold her
tent,
And each man be given equal
sway.
Racial prejudice must dissolve,
II our nation continues to stand,
Out Of the dust God made us all
A man is just man.
Now when this war is ended
And we shout for victory,
Let US share the pursuits of hap
piness,
Give us our right and liberty.

his former wife were divorced, and
he had married the mother of the

THIS is THE TRUTH
BELIEVE 1T OR NOT

Men that are on regular jobs
And some contracts the same
They are trying to capture all the
churches
For money it is not the fame.
The people they are satisfied today
With doctrine once a month
The pure gospel they don't care
for it
1t is the doctrine that makes
them jump.
Most Of our churches are paying
their way
And claiming they are doing we'll
Yet the Lord is calling for the pure
in heart
Or else depart to He'll.
If my people claim to be the best
If so the worst hope not to see
Because the eyes of the Lord are
in every place
And l know He's watching me.
Doctrine makes some fools a man
Some shout their shoes united
Some never say word
And some go home and hide.
There's not a place any where on
earth
You can hide your sins from
Christ
He lifts program for you and me
Follow Jesus and we will live the
right life.
Stop following men and women
Obey the program of Christ
Stop swearing you are child of
God
When you fail to live the life.
To preach a doctrine once a month
And it's a pay day as you go
Don't tell anyone you are child
of God
Because God in Heaven knows.

They Can Be A Real Danger



In a copyright interview with the magazine u. S.
News and World Report Monday J. Edgar Hoover, Chief
of the Federal Bureau of Investigation labeled the Com
munist Party Trojan Horse Of disloyaty coiled like
serpent in the very heart of America.
Such charge coming from the Nations highest
chief Of law enforcement, to us, serious charge
meriting the immediate attention of law enforcement
officials down to the municipal police force in small
est villages.
Mr.. Hoover is not only willing to make the charges
against the Communist threat but he goes on to say
that they by actual state by state count $4,000 of
these cOiled Serpents lurking in American cities In
other words, Mr. Hoover goes into detail to back
up his charges with figures, tabuated state by state
over long period of time.
No wonder the National Association for the Adj
vancement of Coored People, at its 4st annual
ton IN Boston, felt the need to pass resolution
demning Communist tactics and authorizing the board
OF directors to pass down adequate rules to its subord
nate branches throughout the Nation. From all &C
counts including the the street, communism is
very real danger to policy and spirit of
In the past have been too soft with these designing
persons within midst. We have now reached the
stage in world situation where must fight fire

terms else stand to lose our most cherished and
precious inheritance of democracy.
Now, therefore, is the time for get rid of these

very real threat to peace and security. Further
more other nation in the world would permit fifth

Negroes Backing War Effort
In one respect at least all
Negroes see eye-to-eye with every
candidate. Every candidate is
pledging 100 per cent support of
the nations Korean War effort. and
so is every Negro Leader and rank
and file Negro citizens of the
state. Negro Leaders and intelli-
gent and responsible Negro citi-
zens of the state consider it both
ignorant and unreasonable for any
body to even suspect Communism
or any sympathy for communist
among Mississippi Negroes. The
Mississippi Negro, they say, is for
100 percent American Democracy
which he believes can be made to
work in Mississippi; and he is con-
tent to point to the performance
of the Negro soldiers on the Ko-
rean Battlefield, as an adequate
demonstration of the loyalty, pa
triotism and 100 percent Ameri-
cans of the Mississippi Negro.
Less Than 10000 Negro Voters
With the developing of Negro in
terest in voting in Mississippi since
the reconstruction period dating
back, only to 1910; and with his
first vote in a democratic primary
in the state, dating back only to
1914, the election next Tuesday,
although the Negro population is
over one-million, will find less than
10000 Negro qualified voters in the
entire state.
The fear is being expressed in
many quarters that recent state
ments and attitudes from high
sources regarding Negroes will

than 10000 Negro voters to go to
the poll next Tuesday.
The present Negro voters in the
state are to be found in the princi-
pal cities and counties along the
Gulf Coast with the largest num-
Der in Jackson the capitol city,
followed by Meridian, Vicksburg,
Clarksdale, Greenville, with a few
others in some smaller towns.
In more than seventy of the
states 80 counties there are no
qualified Negro voters, even among
doctors, businessmen and large
property holders. This is also true
of some of the principal towns and
cities such as Columbus, Tupelo,
Greenwood, Yazoo City, and Hat

members of the board.
The 1851 convention will be held
in Memphis, Tenn.
This convention was the 9th
annual meeting of the NDA. Held
in Chicago, the dental capital of
the world, it attracted not only the
leading Negro dentists in the world,
but also many of the white pace
makers. The nations leading dental
equipment firms set up extensive
exhibits at the convention.
All meetings and clinics and ex-
hibits were held at DuSable high
school. Numerous social affairs
were held at the city's leading rec
reation centers.
On the civic front the dentists
heard an address by Thurgood
Marshall, chief counsel Of the MA
ACP, discuss the meaning of the
. recent U. S. Supreme Court decis-
ions banning Jimcrow, and the
association passed a resolution to
fight for fair employment practices
bills.
This resolution read as follows:
"That we especially urge each
and every individual member of
the National Dental association to
use his influence with his congress-
man and all other public officials
in the securing of human rights
for all American citizens, to sup
port all forms of social legislation
and all legislative measures design-
ed to effect an FEPC law at the
local, state, and federal levels, and
more especially standardizing hous-
ing and health facilities"
Georgia Dentist Recommends
Forming Of Lobbying Group
DR.. Marcus B. Hutto in a plea
to the dentists to become more
active in community and national
affairs recommended that the NDA
form in essence a legislative or
lobbying committee to study prob
lens and work for theirasolution
He said:
II recommend that this organi-
cation set in motion a specific
group charged with the duty of
studying these conditions and act
in behalf of the NDA when neces-
sary to keep IN touch with the
Legislative procedures Of congress,
to study the needs of our group,
and to keep in step with all kindred
organizations in this unceasing
fight for true applied democracy
to all alike"

titioners conducting clinics and
speaking to the group were the
following men:

PARISH STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: Not so long ago Parish
Streeters used to have a saying at
won't be long now" 1t was q
crack they made whenever one of
the brethren wearing the same suit
every day and sitting around the
barber shop talking and looking
more and more frayed and frail
every day while indulging in those
expansive conversations abou t
what 81 used to have" Here this
past Sunday my preacher took his
text, and moved more by what he
knows is going on, than by the
spirit he took up the subject of
the Negro Veteran and the oppor-
tunity, and especially the money
he is getting under the CT Bill.
and when the Preacher was telling
something about what the BIBLE
means in there where it talks about
no rain for three and a half years,
and all the springs and wells 60
ing dry, and how the folks was
warned before hand and didn't do
nothing til the springs and wells
had all dried up. Well, as far as
81 money is concerned it sure
won't be long now" but yet all
of the Negro Vets that | know
save hand full are still getting
them checks today, and getting
broke before tomorrow comes, and
then borrowing some, at two-bits
on dollar to keep on acting
fool. While it won't be long now
before the springs and wells start
drying up there is still time enough
for folks whose buckets are being
filled now to wake up and water
their fields before the three and
half years of drouth sets in.
What Pm thinking is that maybe
a whole lot of the Vets would do
better if they knew better, and
thinking of my Preachers SER
mon, and what he said, and seeing
that sit won't be long now," /
tried to think of something else,
but couldn't for the life of me,
figure out sermon that Negro
preachers could preach, now and
then, that would do more good,
than one warning the Negro Vet
Grams that the CT Bill out of which
the springs are flowing and the
wells are filled is soon going to
run dry, and when the three years
and a half with no rain comes,
folks won't have nothing to give
to fools.
