You have no idea what Won
derful effect a good deed can
have upon you. Just begin each
day with the idea that you will
do something for someone that
day without thought Of reward.
In short, let 1t be your scout
act" and you will find that be-
fore nightfall you will have a
feeling Of well being which you
cannot account for. But, If you
think back over the day, say,
just before you so to sleep, you
may recall this one good deed
you did and you will find that
you are now, warmed by the
thought Of a good deed done.

In order to Offset recent in
creases in expenses, principally
in wages and taxes, which were
not and could not have been con-
sidered by the Department Of
Public Utilities in the rate pro-
ceedines of l949, the New Eng
land Telephone and Telegraph
Company on March 80 proposed
certain rate increases totalling
100000 a year. In its petition
to the Department. Of Public
Utilities, the company pointed
out that this amount Is necessary
10 bring its rate Of return to the
minimum level established by
the Massachusetts, Supreme Ju-
dicial Court in its recent de-
cision.
At the same time the company
estimated that refunds to custo-
mer which are to be based on
1949 expense levels, would
amount to approximately $4,000
600 for the past two-year period.
The company further said that
final determination Of the amount
and the method of distribution Of
the refunds will be made by the
Department Of Public Utilities.
Company officials pointed
out that the monthly base
rates for residence customers
would remain unchanged
under the proposed sched-
ules.
Changes in monthly base rates
for business Gust o m ers would
range from SOC to $1.00 Other
proposed changes are five-cent
increase in certain toll rates for
distances in excess of eight miles,
elimination Of volume discounts
for additional message units in
excess of 500 per month, and in
charges for private
switchboards, trunk lines. and
special services.
Commenting on the film G,
Hugh w. Macdonald, Massachu-
setts General Manager, said:
Eve are prepared to comply
with the order of the Massachu-
sets Department Of Public Utili-
ties as it may be modified by the
Courts decision. Any
refunds would be determined on
the basis of 1949 expense levels,
which reflect wages and taxes
prevailing during that year.
Based on 1949 expenses the maxi
mum refund the Department may
order will be slightly in excess
Of $2,000,000 for the period be-
ginning May, 1949.
"Today's expenses, however,
are much higher than they were
in 1949. Last October, wage in
creases amounting to $3,500,000
per year were negotiated and
made effective for all Telephone

with few exceptions, everyone
was anxious to hear our story
about the new evidence prov
ing prior intimate relationship
between MCGEE and Mrs. Troy
Hawkins, his accuser, evidence
which makes the charge of rape
ridiculous. So effective was our
work in bringing this new evi-
dence to light that the Jackson
Daily News - most hySterical
paper in the state - admitted
for the first time the nature of
this new evidence three days
after our departure.
1.-THE only prominent person
who flatly refused to hear our
story was Governor Fielding
Wright. Wright was elected to
office on a flagrant platform of
white supremacy by a hand
full of voters in a state whose
poll-tax restrictions deny the
vote to the overwhelming ma
jority of colored and poor whites.
Governor Wright has publicly
announced that he will not seek
reelection in the coming cam
paign and has pledged to make
a last-ditch stand for his tiny
band of white-supremacist con-
spirators in denying justice to
MCGEE.
"We found many white people
convinced of the innocence of
MCGEE, whether of their own
knowledge or on the basis of
the new evidence we brought to
them. The most famous resi-
dent Of the state, William Faux
ner, winner of the Nobel prize
in literature, told US that MCGEE
was innocent and that his con-
viction was an outrage. These
people agreed to work for Nc
Gees freedom. Some discussed
specific plans with us: others
indicated that they would work
in our own way With the ex-
ception of Faulkner, all of these
people asked us to refrain from
quoting them or using their
names because of fear of re-
priSalS.
The overwhelming majority
were at least shaken by our visit
and by the new evidence. and
agreed to study the MCGEE case
further and to concern them
selves with its outcome. Even
the most rabid white-suprema-
cists recognized the presence of
a group of white women, manv
of whom were from the deep
south. fighting for McGee's free

to the lie that jim-crow Justice

being destroyed in order to

WATER FOR BEAUTY

compared to - beefsteak. Any
one can get water - there are
public fountains, you know. A
wise old country doctor gave me
this receipt which covers 10th

Drink plenty Of water, and If
you are not thirsty, make your
self thirsty by eating something
that will make you so. For
water flushes the kidneys and
dilutes the poisons in the body,
thus purifying the blood and
aiding in some way the eye
sight. Also, it serves to clear
the skin and give vigor to the
body. Take water in great
quantities internally, never for
getting to use it externally at
the same time. Prestol
