Stocks Lean Upward
Under Light Trading;
Caution Is Marked
By the Associoied Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-The stock
market half-heartedly climbed a
little higher today.
1t was definite step forward
but there was little activity with
the advance and there still was an
air of caution in the market.
Most price changes were in frac-
|tions. although more substantial
gains showed up now and then.
Especially among the chemicals.
The New York Stock and Curb
Exchanges are closed during elec-
ton day tomorrow and the one
day session between the week end
and the holiday was something of
Ia dampener to any real activity.
Many traders hung to the side
lines. fearing that any dip in
business due to the new tax meas
ure might discourage the market.
Among the stronger issues were
American Cyanamid (ahead 2A
at one time). Dow Chemical
(ahead a point at tines. Santa
F'e and United States Gypsum.
United States Steel, Bethlehem
Republican and Youngstown Sheet
all gained fractions. General Mo-
tors was up slightly and Chrysler
and Studebaker made substantial
advances.
Montgomery Ward, Sears Roe
buck and Woolworth each gained
fractions.
Among the declines were Texas
Pacific Land Trust "a wide mover
which was down nine points al
one time), Boeing, Douglas ano
United Aircraft, international,
Telephone. Nickel Plate, Union
Pacific and Paramount.
On the bond market trading
was so light that it was difficult
to establish trend but there were
a few more gamers than losers
Governments were steady tx
slightly lower.

Dramatic Cures
With New
Antibiotics

Terramycin and Aureomycin, two
new antibiotic drugs are being
used with marked success in ex-
perimentations at Harlem Hospital
in New York and Freedmen's Hos
pital in Washington, respectively.
At Harlem Hospital where DR..
Louis 7. Wright and his associates
made recent history by using auro-
mycin on humans for the first
time, the March issue Of the Jour
nal of the National Medical Asso-
citation cites case history involv-
ing dramatic cure of acute osteo-
myelitis by use of the drug.
The patient, seven year old
girl resident of Trinidad showed
no Improvement when treated with
penicillin at hospital on the is
land. Physicians advised immediate
amputation of the affected leg but
a Trinidad physician visiting this
country carried back aureomycin
with him and the patient showed
immediate improvement when it
was administered. She was flown
to New York and admitted to Har-
lem Hospital where the aureomy-
Gin treatments were continued.
Three months later she was dis
charged as cured, the bone infec-
ton having completely disappear
ed.
AT Freedmen's Hospital, DIR. R..
Frank Jones and his staff in the
Division of Urology recently COM
pleted a study of the use of Ter
ramycin in cases of urinary tract
infections.
Twentyfour patients were in
volved, ranging in age from 10 to
81 years. Most of them were un-
der treatment by the usual anti
bacterial measures but showed no
signs Of improvement. When ter
ramycin was administered every
patient was benefited within five
days and all SYMPTOMS were elimi-
mated in most patients. General
side effects were encouraging and
there were no toxic reactions.
DR.. Jones and his staff express
ed themselves as pleased with the
immediate and, in most cases,
permanent benefits resulting from
use of the new drug.

Uniform Salary For Teachers
(From The Atlanta Daily World)

The State Board of Education has given it's unan-
nous approval last Wednesday to uniform salary scale
that would pay unframed Georgia teachers 81 200 per
and those holding Masters degrees and years
teaching experience $4,000 annually. The action repre-
sents determination to attract and to hold better train
ed teachers for the states schools and to assure to it's
children reasonable amount of protection from in
adequate and uneven growth, vital in a competitive
society.
In another important sense, the action means that
we have come long way from the days of 1882 and
1888 when S57 per month the accepted standards
for teachers having college degrees and professional
state certificates to say nothing about the S25 per
month county lcensepermit teachers, of whom there
many back in those days
The true progress of state is and can be indicated
by its interest in its young people the future citizens
There is little need of complaining of the high incident
OF crime and delinquency among youth if we, charged
with the responsibility of preparing them against the
day, do not exert utmost influence to train them in
the essentials of good citizenship and good government
We commend the state officials for this splendid
step and for their wisdom in chartng which
all OF us can look to safer and hopeful future
The children have right to expect that of u.s. And we
owe the teachers decent chance to lead normal lives

ALittle Mind At Work ms. E.
(FrOm The Louisiana Weekly


Last week Governor Jimmie Byrnes of South Caro-
lima said his state would abandon the public school sys-
TEN before letting colored and white children attend the
schools.
The former q. S. Senator and u. S. Supreme Court
member by his bigoted and prejudced stand clearly in
dcated why he is longer in the inner circles of this
great democratic country He also formerly in Presi-
dent Truman's cabinet Secretary of State He simply
did not belong in top role which called for than
he had to offer Being white supremist at heart and
therefore incapable of clear and straight thinking is
perhaps the reason why he dumped why he ere
signed" from the Presidents cabinet
One have only pity for man who has an i'm
portant and responsible job and only small immature
mind to work with.
Having been in the role of a world statesman it
would appear that Governor Byrnes would have been
sensible enough not to have said publicly what he felt
privately He cannot that he has given added fuel to
the Communist propaganda machine. All he is
ed about is maintaining white supremacy in South Caro-
ina and the rest of the world can go to blazes
His ignorance of the world situation is plainly evil
dent To him it is not matter of democracy proving
to the world it practices what it breaches to convince
doubtful world that have the best form of govern
ment despite what Communist propaganda says to the
contrary That too much for his little brain to compre
bend. .:."sx -
Meanwhile, in North Carolina the trustees of the
Greater University of North Carolina voted overwhem-
ngy to admit Negroes it's graduate and professional
schools Such action indicates that the minds that
the institution that democracys shortcomings
have to be corrected to morally lead the world
Those were no small minds that made such commend
able decision. Such positive action builds faith in the
democratic concept throughout the world We need more

SCREEN and
F00TLIGHTS
BY JUNIUS BETHEA

NEW YORK-One of the most
impelling films to open during the
first three months of this year is
one that must be looked upon as
an important inter-racial film. 1t
is produced by the Scalera Film
Studios in Rome, Italy, and is
about an Italian child, named An
gelo whose mother died in child
birth, and whose father, a Negro
CT died in combat. The film pre-
miered at the 60th Street Trans
Lux theatre Saturday evening, and
is a masterpiece of writing, act
ind and direction.
Though its been more than six
months since this observer saw the
film in private screening, the inn
pact has net waned a bit. No one
watching this little dark skinned
Italian child (Angelo) being looked
upon scolnfully by the white hus-
band of his mother who had beer
in prison for five years, and be-
lieving his wife had borne a child
for him, only to find that the child
had been fathered by a Negro, can
ever forget what seemed at first
to be an unfortunate happening.
Neither can one forget when the
step-father, brooding deeply over
the unfaithfulness of his wife,
flees the orphanage leaving the
child behind, and seeks every le-
gal means to prove that the child
is Legitimate and therefore not
his. When this fails because the
Italian law says he vowed to be
responsible for the child, even
though the child is of a Negro
father, has no bearing on the law,
he learns to love the child. Nor
will your memory of the last
scenes leave you, when the brother
of the boys father comes from the
United States to take the child to
his grandparents to be reared,
leaving the stepfather heart
/ broken.
The film is called angelo" and
it lives up to every bit of the
laulels awarded little >Angelo in
the title role. He is composed,
and is possessed of the natural
ness and simplicity of a child. He
is born actor, and has a sense
of exhibitionism, and his innocent
reactions are penetrating.
Matteo, the stepfather, played
by Renato Baldini, is in every
sense of the word, real character
of the role of white father, who
discovers his wife has given birth
to child by a Negro. Catari,
portrayed by Iole Fierro, Matteo's
friend is the best example o. a
friend who finally proves to you,
that predicament does not have
to be more than a temporary prob

ment for faculty and students
It's success has warranted the es-
tablishment of the event as an
annual Embarrassing affair to ben
eft this national society that
comes to the aid of all peoples in
war and calamity.
The idea sprang from Mrs. C.
7. Craddock, college bursar, and
was executed by members of
CANA Phi chapter, Alpha Kappa
Alpha Sorority, and Delta Kappa
chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha
Fraternity under the auspices of
the Office of Public Relations. 1t
was believed by Mrs. Cxhddock
that students would be a bit slow
in making direct contributions but
would respond to the carnival idea.
Numerous booths included for
tune telling, diagnosis and prog
nosis by "Dr. Hadacol," dart
throwing, penny throwing, snack
bar, dancing, apple bobbing, and
many other activities-all for a
penny.
The decoration, which largely
included red crosses, created the
desired atmosphere.
The "Miss Penny Carnival" title
was claimed by Miss Elmer Dious
who was sponsored by the Alcorn
chapter of New Farmers of Amer
lea.
The significance of the event
was not the amount raised this
year, but rather the promising
enthusiasm for a bigger, more
fruitful carnival next year.
