either in law, or in spirit, and per-
haps in both is one of the great
needs of the south, the section from
where it is meeting the strongest
and most determined opposition
This is particularly true of the
State of Mississippi
There is the old saying that you
can't keep a man down in ditch
without staying down there with
him. The south can't keep the
Negro in low economic condi-
ton without its self being kept
in low economic condition. The
only way to improve the economic
condition of the south is to i'm
prove the job opportunity for SOU
thern Negroes. This is also parti-
culraly true of Mississippi where
the entire economic and business
life OF the state has been based
upon, and must take into consider
atom the fact that roughly fifty

per cent of the states people are
Negroes.
In recent months large industries
have been opening in. the state in
localities where there is virtually
no job opportunity for Negroes
outside of farming, where upwards
of one hundred people were put
to work from the very beginning
I. but not one single Negro. In
some cases it has been announced
that no Negro would be employed
in the Janitor Jobs, a some what
traditional Negro job category.
With such an attitude and condi-
ton existing the need for FEPC
in Mississippi . To save it from
its self to eliminate the drag
of one-half of its population being
kept in the lowest possible econo-
mic condition, may be one of the
present, and outstanding needs of
the state.

Inc WeaJner mas been just right
for Shad fishing, and water con-
ditions also have been right in the
Potomac for the past few days.
Consequently the fish starte d
biting early Tuesday morning
Good catches were made again
w dnesday morning, but on
Thursday, when your scribe, in
company with Bob Nungesser of
shad lure fame, made a try for
them. the run had Stacked of
somewhat.
Possibly the tide had something
to do with it. Mid-tide is not q
good time to catch these fish,
especially when it is an ebb tide.
However. few men picked hot
spots and catches of from three
to six or seven were about average
when we left at $3.50 am. In our
opinion, the main run has not yet
started. If 1t has, and this is a
tail-end showing. it will be a poor
shad season. &
Still no hardhead news from
either Benedict or the Honga
River. With the continuance of
warm weather this species can be
expected to start taking bats on
any tide now. The white perch
now being taken both in the Pa
tuxent and the Potomac are from
small to medium size fish.
Warmer weather also should be
conducive to better trout fishing
in streams Of nearby States, espe-
cially those in the Shenandoah
National Park in Virginia. Mary
lands brown trout also should
start to take lures about this time.
They have been very shy up to
now and few have been hooked.
Channel bass. according to all
reports, are feeding we'll in the
Nags Head Oregon Inlet area and
sizeable catches are being made
daily. Continued fair weather will
accelerate their slow, late start,
and fishing in that area should
be good for several weeks. No
sign yet Of bluefish. The water
is not warm enough to bring them
in close TO shore.
We would like to call attention
to the fishing regulations of the
District, especially with respect to
netting. Netting of any species of
fish is prohibited. Dip-netters after
herring and shad on the District
side of the Potomac in the Chain
Bridge area have been active of
late. mostly early in the morning
and in the late evening.
This violation has been reported
and we hope word of warning
will be sufficient. It is illegal also
to take crappie or bass from the
Potomac in District waters be-
tween April and May 80.

wanted their child to possess was
that of gentleness and thought
fulness of others which traits in
themselves make a gentlewoman.
Truly this was beautifully realiz-

Penelope-who, being called on
for material to be used in choir
work by a friend sacrificed a plea
sure to help this person and so
generously gave what she had in
answer to this call.
Penelope--the musician-whose
exquisite touch could draw forth

appreciation of the exquisite inter

The love and happiness she
gave in her home to her de-

not tread on sacred ground but
we do know with all our hearts
that God has work for Penelope
to do and that she will forever
be happy in that work.
