THE SPECTATOR
AND NOW IT'S ICE THAT
TAKES A RAISE
aN ELLIOTT J. PIEZE

For the past few weeks in and
around the Magic City, it SEEM
ed to have been sort of an eS-
tablished system that various COM
modities and other necessities OF
life would have their turn to go
up in price. Less than two months
ago, bread had its turn when It's
price was increased from 16 to
II cents per loaf - that is for the
regular plain bread. The sudden
Jump in the prices of laundry and
dry cleaning within the past few
weeks has been so alarming that
today plans have been completed
for a series of investigations as
well as a number of court battles,
in an effort to bring the prices
back to common sense rate.
And now it seems to be the turn
for ice to take its raise. Last Sat-
urday morning I bought % lbs.
of ice from a certain ice truck
and paid II cents for it. On Mon
day morning of this week, 1
bought the. same amount of ice
from the same truck - but this
time the price had jumped
from II to 20 cents. And so 1t
goes, - in a seemingly never
ending trend to increase the price
of every necessity of life - ex-
cept the salaries Of the working
man and woman.
wonder just what those who
are responsible for these increases
in prices expect the average man
and woman to do in order to live
in these trying times. Rent, food
clothing and practically every
| thing else have gone up to almost
unheard of scales, during the past
few months, and there seem tc
be no end in sight. Practically
everything has increased in price
except the salaries Of working
people - and they are the ones
who must bear the greatest bur-
den of all of the increases. So
say again - just what Is the av-
erage working man and woman
going to do in order to make q
living under such conditions a:
they are faced with today.
Back to the question Of the in
crease in the price of ice, a GER
tain independent ice dealer tolC

dred. With the recent increase il
price of ice, this same dealer sale
he now must pay so cents pc
hundred wholesale and is forcec
to sell it for 80 cents per hundred
retail - thus reducing his ne
profit per hundred from "a cent
to 20 cents per hundred.
Adding insult to injury, thi
same dealer also told me that no

company from which he buys hi

To defend his thesis, Anthropo-

Gorillas have very thin lips:
whites lips are thicker; Negro lips
are thick.
Gorillas and whites have album

their bodies; Negroes have little
body hair, and what there is
grows obliquely.
Whites are thick-Slkulled. with
heavy bones resembling those of
early mammals; Negroes have thin
skulls, slender bones.
DR.. Jeffreys pointed out that
the white mans heart is typically
mammalian, with two arteries.
Many Negroes have a third large
artery supplying the wall OF the
left ventricle. Betted ooronary
circulation, he feels, explains why
Negroes rarely suffer from an
