whose camp had been ransacked
the previous year came to Yellow
stone with a portable phonograph.
When he had to leave camp, he
left several jazz records playing on
the phonograph. In his absence a
bear entered. rhe bear raided the
kitchen, ate all the canned goods,
chewed a few jazz recordings and
demolished the phonograph.

BEAR" Mclaughlin points out.
He considers any sound just
noise"
Mclaughlin has tried using
dogs to scare off the bears. When
the tourist season is over and
bears discover that they have to
shift for themselves. they start
raiding the rangers cabins. One
autumn Mclaughlin brought two
large Airedales into camp. They
took after their first marauder,
and the bear retreated.
That bear looked as if he was
getting ready to leave the coun-
try" Mclaughlin said. Then
suddenly he slammed on his brakes
and reared up on his launches.
The Airedales stopped and looked
impressed. The news got around.
The bears all knew that the Aire-
dales could be bluffed."
Mclaughlin retired the Aire-
dales, substituted a small spitz.
He yapped at the bears unceas-
ingly. They tried swiping at him,
but he was too fast. He irritated
them right out of camp.

handling technique are lured into
paddy wagon" This is a large
corrugated iron tank on wheels,
baited with salmon. 1t is hooked
up to a rangers car, and the cul-
prit is removed to a remote area.
Every once in while, however,
Mclaughlin or one of his rangers
is called upon to deal with a re-
peat offender. This calls for an
other trip in the paddy wagon. AS
an additional penalty a white
stripe is painted on the bears back.
For some reason or other this is
very humiliating. Law abiding
bears pause with averted eyes
when a white-striper goes by.
One morning Mclaughlin came
upon a white-striped bear who
was footsore after his long hike
from exile. The bear approached
a tourist, hopeful of a handout.
The tourist, photography fan,
was intent on taking a picture.
He peered at the bear through the
ground glass of his camera.
~Lens Hog"
WHEN the bear looked right back
at him through the front of the
camera. the photographer put out
an impatient hand and pushed the
bear on the nose.
Get back, you lens hog!" he
ordered sharply. The bear retreat
ed abruptly.
I'D give a lot to see the express
sion of the bear in that picture,
says Mclaughlin. you know it
isn't advisable to push any bear

UP on his hind legs and squared
off for action. The tourist fled.
Generally, a loud noise will
scare a bear away, Mclaughlin
says. Trouble is. he quickly be-
comes accustomed to one kind of
noise, and after that to get results
another noise must be employed.
Campers whose supplies are
raided by foraging bears usually
get rid of them the first few times
by banging a couple of pots and
pans together. Somehow a half
grown black bear in the Yellow
stone figured out how he could put
this fact to good use.
Upsetting Seniority
WHENEVER bears feed at Old
Faithful a time-honored order of
precedence has been observed.
Grizzlies dine first, then adult
black bears. The cubs have to take
whatever is left.
One evening as the grizzlies were
beginning to eat, there was a ter
rife changing racket. Every bear.
except one, promptly left. The ex-
ception was a small black bear.
He abandoned couple of five
gallon tin cans he had been bang
ing together. then dined in solitude.
On the following evening the
little black bear gave repeat per-
formance. This time, however, the
other bears didn't rush for the
woods. They converged towards
him. He took to a handy tree.

ockso on Street

Christmas decorations were put
up on Jackson Street this week
by the Jackson Street Councils
Civic committee and local business
men. The feature of this years
display is the illuminated sign and
Christmas trees on the hillside
between 9th and 10th Avenues
which proclaim greetings in Eng
lish, Japanese and Chinese. Large
cedar swags with gay bows and
streamers are hung on light poles
between 5th and 14th Avenues.
For the third year the Commun-
ity Chest supported Council has
organized the project and mobil-
lied the necessary volunteers to
provide a holiday atmosphere at a
minimum cost. Funds were COL
lected by an independent commit
tee, headed by Louis Todd and
Frank Hattori, and were turned
over to the Council for the decor
atoms.
The contrast to the $500 to
$4,000 spent in other districts, the
decorations budget this year was
S236.65, the amount raised from
nominal volunteer contributions.
All of the swags were made and
hung by volunteers, using mater
ials purchased at wholesale thru
local merchants. The largest single
item of expense was for the greet
ing sign, designed by James Hata,
and constructed so that it can be
stored and used again next year
with a new design.
Space does not permit the listing
of the contributors at this time.

Political Comments
By E N I. FRAZIER

anywhere in the United States
who can read that letter, knowing
the source from whence 1t came
and not its irony? Mr.. Her
bert is a States Rights Dixiecrat.
He is M Of the Congressional
leaders who lined up with the
group of Southerners who walked
out of the Democratic National
Convention two years ago because
the convention adopted a civil
rights plank. which If enacted
into law would have given Negroes
equality of opportunity. Mr.. Her
bert is allied with a group who
would cheerfully e American
Negroes sacrifice and suffer. fight
and die for America and then for
get all about the freedom he now
talks about as far as Negroes are
concerned.
If Mr. Herbert Is weak minded
enough to believe he is a Christian
and that his prayers will do any
good, I refer him to a passage OF
scripture in the Holy Bible which
reads something like this: IF you
say you love God and hate your
fellowman, you are a liar"
I agree that now is the time
for all Americans to set aside all
differences of opinion and In a
unified effort do all we can TO win
this war. And, when the war is
over, I believe it will again be the
time for all Americans to set aside
all differences of opinion and in a
unified effort do all we a 20
put an end to the present demo
cratic administration which con
tinuously leads us into trouble and
which will surely destroy the
American nation If 1t is allowed
to remain in power.
American Negroes want no part
of Communism with its Goddess
theology. We likewise want no part
of States Rightsism with its God
less theology. Under Communist
domination we know we might be-
come slaves, while under the dom
nation of States Rightsim, we
know we would become slaves. Mr..
Herbert proposes that we all unite
in prayer to Almighty God right
now because the nation Is in great
danger and he is scared. Negroes
believe in prayer to Almighty God
at all times. regardless OF whether
we are in peace or war.

More Than Three Hundred
Attend Civic Unity Dinner

over three hundred persons at
tended the Civic Unity sixth ami
versary dinner at the Chamber of
Commerce last Thursday evening
to hear George Greenwood of Del
Mar. California, past president of
the Pacific National Bank in Sc
attic and first chairman of the
Civic Unity Committee, speak on
Civic Unity and the Individual"
One of the highlights of the
occasion was the annual presenta-
ton of awards to individuals and
organizations who have had the
eourge to make specific contribu-
tons toward making Seattle a
more democratic city.
Frank p. Helsell, president of the
Civic Unity Committee made the
presentation and the top award
went TO General Lilburn II. Stew
ems Of the Washington state Ma
tional Guard for his important
contribution In presenting the
award Mr., Helsell said;
You viii recall the report Of
the Presidents COMMITTEES on Civil
Rights which was headed By Char
les e. Wilson. President Of General
Electric. One OF the important
recommendation OF the committee
was that an immediate end be put
TO discrimination and segregation
based on race. color or creed IN
all branches Of the armed forces.
HONORABLE MENTION
Mr.. Helsell called attention 10
the gains IN the field Of human
relations In our city for the year
1850 and said;
"A definite forward step has
been the non discriminatory policy
initiated by q leading department
store which employs office and re-
tail sales persons on the basis Of
qualifications without regard 10
race. This year Il Is expanding
that policy 10 include more non
whites In every part Of the estab
lishment. They have had nothing
but commendAtory remarks from
the buying public and have ex-
perienced no employee resistanca.

HOUSING GAINS

Zone of the major problems in
Seattle as well as in other cities
throughout the country is that of
private housing. Tonight we can
report an important forward step
in the field of housing. As you
know, the national reael estate
board has had a code of ethics
under article "a which made ii
very difficult for realtors to offer
housing opportunities to minority
groups. At the recent national con-
vention of the Real Estate Board
in Florida, Article "a was revised
to eliminate any reference to race
or nationality.
I'VE particularly commend Hull
and Anderson Construction Com
pany; Bishop Brothers Contractors
and the Merryweathers, owners
and builders, for providing housing
for interracial occupancy.
I'VE pay tribute to the Seattle
Park Department which sponsors
a summer opera company which In
1850 for the first time selected a
cast for the operas on the basis
OF qualification without regard to
race creed or color.
I'VE salute Holy Names Acad-
envy which is the first private
girls high school to graduate
three Negro students in June,
1880. The seniors had the usual
round OF class parties. held in pri-
vate homes and hotels, and
erybody had a wonderful time.
We believe this is worthy of
Of mention because there are some
privat schools who would hike to
adopt a similar policy but have
a lot Of apprehension and believe
that such a step would bring dis
sension.
We regret that there is not
time 10 list other individuals. firms
and organizations who have helped
10 make Seattle a better place in
which 10 live. such as the Com
munity Chest agencies, tn e
churches. the p. T. A, and the
radio stations and nswspapers."

1 read with interest a few days
ago, a letter published in the daily
press which had been written to
President Truman by Congressman
F. Edward Herbert, a Dixiecrat
of Louisiana, proposing that a
Sunday before Christmas be set
aside for an appeal to Almighty
God for guidance and wisdom in
the struggle against Communism.
The letter in addition to describing
Communism as Goddess theology
stated, among other things, THE
present crisis in which we are
living is naturally of great con-
Germ to every American. In these
times of indecision and unrest it is
most imperative that our people
become united and solidified in the
common cause of the preservation
of our accepted way of life. To
that end I suggest that you, as
President of the United States,
call upon the churches of America.
Catholic, Protestant and Jewish.
to set aside a Sunday between
now and Christmas, to appeal to
Almighty God for guidance and
wisdom in what I believe to be
the Gethsemane of our existence.
1 believe that now is the time for
u people to set aside whatever
differences of opinion that might
exist in a unified effort for ulti-
mate success in our fight to con-
tinue the freedom Of the free
peoples Of the world"

has quickened us to the feeling
of u Holy Saviour as He walked
His bitter road. On this Christmas
Day, let us go to Him and give
Him our hearts in prayers with the
full realization that whatever He
wills is right.
Christmas must be joyous for
children that they too must under
stand the gift life. 1t must be
joyous for the parents that they
may express the joy of giving.
And what can bring greater peas
ure, greater joy, greater peace of
mind than giving alteration to Him
who gave his life that we might
have eternal life.
On this Christmas Day let us all
give thanks and pray to Him who
gave eternal life.

To those who believed that day
has always been one of joyous cell
ebration and wen today with the
United Nations who have been in
mortal combat with the Eastern
World, we do not forget the ador-
alton. 1t could not be complete
with some of our fathers and sons
o could our joy be full, but our
way to salvation is still wide open.
And on the battle lines where
our Christian soldiers r fighting
there will be prayers to thank AL
mighty God for His present to
the world and the comfort it brings
to those in mortal combat. They
will seek his blessings knowing
full well they are fighting for God
and Freedom.
Yet this conflict among nations
has brought us closer to God. It
