For the past 43 years the MA

not matter how long and difficult

White stated when he was ex-
planning the difficulties that the
NAACP has overcome.
He pointed out that the MA
ACP WAS always in the forefront
of the struggle TO preserve and
gain civil rights and liberties for
the past 43 years, and that no
man like Taft or Russell is ever
going to get in the White House "
Nor do ! want to see a dicta-
tor like Joe Mccarthy ever gain
power" White said that he is
asked quite often at to what ex-
tend the NAACP affects civil lib
critics?
He said that he answers that
question with these two, What
would be the status of civil rights
in Minnesota, for example, If it
were not for the NAACP?" and
How long would these victories
last that have been made with
blood and sweat If it were not the
NAACP?"
White was introduced by the
Rev. Denzil A. Carly. pastor of
St Philips Episcopal church in
St. Paul, and state president of
the NAACP. William Cratic,
president of the Minneapolis
branch acted as chairman of the
meeting and introduced Frank
Smith, president OF the st. Paul

Coffee,

SVAtGWe
Coffee, Americas tavorite bever-
age was once used for food. It Is
the leading alcoholic table bev-
erage. According to authorities, the
plant was first cultivated as far back
as 575 A. d. 1t is said to be native
to Abyssinia and Arabia. In spite
of Arabia's efforts to keep the grow
ing of coffee a monopoly, the plant
spread throughout the tropics.
An Arabian physician left a
record to the effect that the fruit
Of the plant was prepared for solid
food, later made into wine for medi-
cine, finally into q beverage.
The story Of the introduction Of
coffee from Europe to the West In.
dies is to the effect that Norman
gentleman named Gabriel Matthew
de Clieu, a captain Of infantry In
Martinique, had o dream. In 1720
he smuggled q sturdy coffee plant
among his belongings to take the
long trip from France across the At
lantic. The plant fiourished so well
in its new home that seedlings were
sent from Martinique plantations to
Santa Domingo, Guadaloupe and
other nearby islands Of the Carib-
bean.
In i7S0 the English brought young
trees to Jamaica. Coffee cultivation
soon became general throughout
tropical America. Today, more
