A Letter
From Bill Laniaii
Dear Neighbor:

Dear Neighbor:
Here's food for thought. Rice is
one of the major causes for the
strife and mounting tension in the
Far East.
Alex Johnson, Deputy Assistant
Secretary of State for Far Eastern
Affairs, brought out this point in
a recent discussion Of the Asiatic
powder-keg.
In the Soviet scheme for world
domination, johnson revealed,
their main objective in the Far
East is to bring Japan into their
sphere of influence. Since rice
constitutes the main diet of the
Japanese there has been Soviet in
stigated and controlled armed ag-
gression in the Malaga States, In
donesa, Burma, Siam and South
Korea. Why? These areas are
large rice producing countries and
Japan's market for this vitality
needed foodstuff.
Just prior to the Red attempted
grab of South Korea that Korean
Republic was contracting with ia
pan to furnish a new supply of rice
According to Johnson, this rice was
needed by North Korea and China,
so that the aggression was undoubt-
eddy a deliberate plan to eliminate
this Japanese rice market. The as
| sistant Secretary felt that for the
Free Nations to have ignored
this Red armed move would have
been playing into Soviet hands,
Our action repeled the invader
| and upset the Soviet timetable fol
world domination.
Japan's industrial potential has
long been the sought after prize Of
/ the Communist. This potential is
well Illustrated by the fact that 81
/ percent of the construction steel
used by the Free Nations in Ko-
rea since the outbreak of the war
has been produced in Japan. The
Reds want Japan. Their stomach.
strangulation" operation was de
signed to create confusion, unrest
and discontentment in Japan.
Johnson feels that the Commu-
nists have failed in the Far East.
While the Korean War has been an
expensive operation, both in mo-
ney and manpower, for the Free
| Nations Of the World il has beer
far more costly venture for the
Reds. As of today, johnson con
tinued, the Communists are behinr
the point from which they started
I, They have expended over q mil
lion trained soldiers in Korea
North Korea, once an industrial
area. has been leveled and Is nov
barren. Today, North Korea is ~
economic liability to the Commu
nists.
Johnson closed the discussion b,
saying he has no doubt that tn
Reds are firing Of their Korssl
effort. The Soviet Union can'ao
realize anything but failure. IN

For The Sake OF Your Children
Vote Wet

On August Goth, which will be next Tuesday the
voters of Mississippi have the responsibility of going to
the polls to cast their Votes We urge all qualified Negro
Voters of the state to go to the polls that day and
fulfill the highest responsibility Of American Citizen
ship which is that of Voting.
All issues that come up in American election is
important and included among the issues is the election
of the best candidates. in the mind of the voter to fill
the public offices which they seek Of the greatest i'm
portance in this election however, is the Wet and Dry
Issue, under which the voters will determine whether
not the sale of whskey will be legal in the state
whether not 1t will continue to be sold by bOOteggerS,
and in such joints where is being sold today quani
ties far out Of proportion to the state population
We have heard the cry For the sake of your children
vote dry but say to the Negro Voters of the state
For the SAKE OF YOUR CHILDREN VOTE WET
We say to the Negro voters for the sake of their
children vote wet for these two Of first import
the that under the present condition,
Negro boys and girls, of any and all ages buy whs
key anywhere it is being sold and questions ask
ed. With whiskey being sold legally regulations
would be passed keeping young kids out of places where
whiskey is sold Then there is the fact that the sale of
whiskey legally in the state would bring into the state
treasury millions of dollars from taxes, which would
make longer possible for the legislature to say that
the money not available for the equalization of educa
tional opportunities in the state.
Negro Voters of Mississippi, think on these two
things and go to the polls August 26 and vote WET
for the Sake of your Children.

Already County Agent Russell

up his corn production from % to

Mr.. McMillon's oldest boy, Ed

Negro voters in America, really see no need for civil
rights to be made such issue in all political campaigns
and from all indications they would be willing to 90
along with the above proposal made by the American
Veterans Committee But if the issue of Civil rights is
to be continued to be exploited by political leaders with
out netting anything for Negro Americans and other
mnorties they must be forced to vote bloc order
to force consideration of rights which already Amer

The American Veterans Committee has made what
to be logical move toward eliminating political
confusion and the of civil rights political issue.
This veterans organization has called upon both Presi

nominees making declaration to support all

right to vote in all primary and general elections 2 The
right to equality of employment opportunities. 3. The
right of security of person.
1t that if both political parties would ashore
to the logic in the above proposal, would at least
eliminate vital stumbling block in all of political
affairs, namely the issue which has become key
instrument in campaigns for political factions The prin
cpes of civil rights, which parties and factions have
used to make heated political disputes out Of already
written in the United States Constitution What is really
needed is for these principles to be enforced by the

YOU MUST PROVIDE FOR
YOUR FAMILY IF YOU
EXPECT HEAVEN TO
BE YOUR HOME

How can you live here today
And claim a part in Christ as well,
Renting a home for your wife and
children
And die and go to hell.
If a man won't provide for his
family
He is want their some infull,
Yet he claims he owes a lot to
Christ
Then he dies and go to hell.
You have got to obey the word of
God
To get eternal rest as we'll,
If you fail to provide for your
family
Do not look for heaven it is hell.
God did not say obey part of his
will
He said it all must be fulfilled as
we'll,
Unless you keep all of Gods COM
mandments
Do not look to get in Gods heaven
it is hell.
When you get to Gods heaven
You must be able to stand the test,
Leave your children provided for
Are else it is hell and no rest.
Thousands are helping to build
church
And won't provide for their family
as we'll,
Hollering holy and | am sanctified
Then die and go to hell.
Why would you build house for
And put your family in a tent as
well,
Not foot of land you will leave
them
Then die and go to hell.
Some preachers they are respon-
sible
For over taxing the people as well,
Wife and children not provided for
Somebody is going to hell
Buying automobiles for your pastor
Fine suits of clothes as well,
Your wife and children half naked
Somebody is going to hell.

Do the best you can for Gods house
Pay your pastor living wage
And build home for your children
and wife.

FARIST STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT: My Grandma used to say
something when | was boy about
the time coming to separate the
sheep from the goats, and | used
to go up under the house where
| held forth with all the brio a brac
Of my youth, and in those>moments
that ! would give to thinking"
about something instead of trying
to "make" something, | often pom
der over what she meant by sep
arating the sheep from the goats.
Seeing that she'd always put the
sheep first it left me somewhat
disturbed because at that time my
menaeerie, and that of my friends
included a goat, which aside from
the aroma that he eXuded | could
find no fault with. What disturbed
me most was that | couldn't es-
cape the conclusion that because
of the way Grandma put the thing
q sheep under any circumstances
was just naturally better than a
goat, and that whenever the sep
arating time come the goat would
always get the worst of the deal
but somehow or other, here
lately, since I've been travelling
this road I'm now on (did you get
that) I'm beginning to think that
Grandma had a meaning that I
wasn't able to ketch onto in my
rendering underneath the house
What | believe now that she
was talking about more'n anything
else is that sleeps business and
goats business amt always the
same, and can't be always talked
about and worked-out together
On sleeps business all the sheep
got to get together and on goat
business all the goats got to get
together | was thinking back
along these lines while | was in
0Ulging my fish and beer, and
thinking about all the different
things Amt Haggar's Chillun got
to learn about politics E. and when
[ got to thinking about how some
of them who calls theyself "lead-
ers" are always talking about Eve
all have got to get together"
while this country has a whole
Iotta folks in it some Of who are
Democrats and some who are Re-
pubicans, | couldn't help but to
say to myself that this business
Of 'We-all have got to get to-
gether" amt been doing nothing to
nor for the tribe of Haggar but
keeping them huddled-up in one
pile so they can all be riddled at
one time without hurting anybody
else while the Kidding is going on
. And as Grandma musta meant
it want hurt the sheep to git on
their side and the goats to get on
their side . at the right time.
