JIM CROW
STRIKES OUT

When Bill Veeck. new owner
of the st. Louis Browns. signed
Satchel Paige. the colorful, age
less Negro pitcher. to a contrct
last week. there wasn't a ripple
of protest in that supposedly
race-jittery city. Which is final,
conclusive proof that If profess
sional sport has contributed
nothing else of lasting value to
U. S. progress. 1t has at least
blasted the myth that Jim Crow
ism is fixed and eternal in this
land.
1t was but few years ago
that calamity howlers were pre-
dieting bloody race riots should
Joe Louis become heavyweight
champion. But there were no
riots. Louis was accepted by ring
fans solely on his measure as a
great fighter and sportsman. Nor
were the millions of Americans
who thrilled to the story of Jer-
sey Joe Walcott's sensational
knockout of Ezzard Charles con-
cerned with the color of the con-
testants. The thrill was in Joe
Walcott's long and game fight back
from the status of a down-and-
outer on relief to the champion
ship. A fight against the discour-
agement of failure-he had already
lost to Louis twice and Charles
twice. The boxing Jim Growers"
were wrong all along.
Trouble was directly predicted
too, when Branch Hickey broke
the unwritten law of organized
baseball barring Negroes by max
ing a Brooklyn Dodger of Jackie
Robinson. the great athlete from
UCLA. Now fans in every league,
from the majors to the semi.pros,
whoop wildly for colored and white
players alike to win for the home
team
Still, until Veeck signed Paige,
st. Louis remained the last strong
holr of the bitter-enders who seem
somehow to think that the Civil
War still RACES. Now that is lost to
them. or Satch didn't win his first
start in st. Louis-but he did
strike out Jim Grow, and before the
biggest Brownie fan turnout of the

American workman well-deserved
leisure far more effectively than
the cry for the 8-hour day, for
without the means, the cry would
have been empty and unheeded, ="
said Mr.. Brayman, who for many
years was a Washington newspap-
er writer and political commentat-
or. Our standard of living, he
pointed out, is after all no myster-
ious blessing from on high.
'If a family spends 800 hours of
its income-producing time for re-
frigerator that lasts six years. it
has spent so hours a year to good
advantage. But, if their next re-
frigerator costs 200 hours of labor
and lasts ten years, then the six
free years of operation contribute
to funds for other purposes"
Mr.. Brayman said that he did
not want to be misunderstood and
that he conceded surely that all is
not perfect under this system of
ours. Not all business is as fully
aware of it responsibilities as we
should hope" he said. There are
still, of course, injustices and
Illustrations that require attention.
There are unquestionably areas of
activity which need change and
improvement, and there always
will be.
But let's be sure that we under
stand what is required for best re-
suits = that we progress not
through hazy and hasty expedients,
but through the application of our
natural resourcefulness through
bringing our technical capacities to
more of our people, through lower
ing our costs and improving the
performance of our industry.
''This is the true formula for re-
form. Let's make sure that we
keep it firmly fixed in our minds.
It is at once our record of the past
and our best hope for the future"

FORMULA FOR
REFORM" TALK
Harold Brayman, D. p n t
Public Relations Man Talks
Before Paint Clubs
CITES ADVANCES

Atlantic City, N. J., Nov. p
American science and production
processes offer the hope of social
gains far exceeding anything now
known in any nation, Harold Bray
man, Director of the Public Rela-
tions Department of the DUPONT
Company, said here today. His
talk, 'SFormula for Reform" was a
feature of the annual meeting of
the Paint and Varnish Production
Clubs here. Private business in
itiative, he said, has brought i'm
provements in standards of living
which centuries of reform agitation
were unable to effect, and holds
the brightest promise for further
progress. 'SNone of our great So
cial advances would have been pos
sible at all if our dynamic economic
development had not supplied the
means" he said, noting that this
applied to "every improvement
contributing to our ease, comfort
and convenience, and to all areas
of human activity. ''When this
country was founded it took nine
people on the farm to feed them
selves plus one city dweller. To-
day, in contrast, one man on the
farm feeds himself, four city peo-
pie and one person overseas" he
said. Tracing the rise in mechan-
lied farm equipment, which has
"ended peasantry" in agriculture,
he concluded II leave it to you as
to whether the farmers advance
ment has been due to laws, legisla-
tion or bold speeches in Congress,
or to the invention and develop
ment that today enable single
tractor to plow ten acres of land in
"a single day-as much as an 18th
Century settler could handle in
months of hard, crushing toll"
The social changes brought about
by the automobile, Mr.. Brayman
observed, have been enormous, par
ticuIarly in enabling people to live
among green trees away from the
factory where they work, and in
promoting a broader national view
point. Pointing out that 80 years
ago q war was going on between
North and South, he said that to-
day "it seems inconceivable that
these sections should regard them
selves q separate nation, with Vir-
gfnian summering in Maine, New
Yorkers touring the Great Smokes
in october, and Pennsylvanians va
cationing in Miami or Sea Island
Mo statecraft, no oratory, no leg
dslation could achieve this single
ness of purpose half SO well as has
the teering wheel of the family car.
Lives everywhere have been en-
riched and enlarged by tn automo-
bile in a manner impossible to
achieve through law"
Invention and development, Mr..
Brayman said, were responsible
for the emancipation of women
from Eighteenth Century servi-
tude" by freeing them from their
most time-consuming and fatigu-
ing efforts. 'Tf it had not been for
the invention of the cotton gin,
the spinning jenny and other tex
tile developments, women would
have had little time or concern for
equal rights" he said. 'The real
authors of emancipated woman
hood were not Amelia Bloomer,
Lucy Stone and Susan B. Anthony,
but inventors like Eli Whitney,
James Hargreaves and Richard
Arlrwright.

Trout Derby Prizes

Additional trout were entered in the Stikine Sportsmen sponsored trout derby last week but weights of the trout are now being kept a secret by the trout derby committee. Committee chairman Jack Krepps said none of the trout are records that can't be beaten so everyone should enter his biggest catches.
 Weighing in is at the zimovia Lockers with 25f charge for each trout entered. There is no limit to the number of entries per person.
 Prizes donated by local business men last week included a fly rod by Campbell Brothers; a fishing basket from Wrangel Electric; a trout reel from the Sentinel; and a case of soda pop or beer (win- ners choice) each from the Totem Bar, Wrangell Hotel, and Stikine Club. Other prizes will be an- nounced next week.
 Now entered in the trout derby are Leo Cremer, Richard Garcia, Bob Wickman, Jimmy Patterson, Russ Warfel, Jake Truitt, Corinne Truitt, Eddie Ness, Mike Hay, Bert Johnson and Larry Hammer.
