Tor white children as tor Negro chill

should be hired on the basis OF their

and should be assigned wherever
there is need. Only those whose
basic concept of the child is free

Met Does II

For the first time in the history
of the Metropolitan Operas dres-
sy openings, Negroes were admit
ted to the swanky Sherry's bar
where society and cafe society re-
lax at intermiSSions.
They were all quickly and cour-
teously served. Except for a few
lifted lorgnettes there was no in
cident.
Marian Anderson, the famous
singer, was one of the Negroes
served but not the first. She came
in at the insistence of her mana
ger. Half dozen other Negroes
entered the plush saloon and were
served without question.
ITS the first year Negroes
have been here on opening night"
said William Thompson, manager
of Sherry's, although they've
been here for UN parties during
the past months. Every Saturday
there's tea party.
Nobody said anything to me
in the way of complaint and if
they had I would have told them
that it is not in the American
policy to discriminate"
II do not know who they were
but they were evidently all we'll
known artists and musicians for
l saw them shaking hands ali
around them.
Anyway, 1 would never chase
them out" New York Post.

their performance rarely men
stoned him. But Mr.. Thomp-
son was happy. The act was
his hobby and he had spent
a lot of time training Yankee

Yankee and Dixie, ''dogs of
almost human intelligence"
were stars in the first quarter
of the century. Three pairs
of fox terriers bore the name

in vaudeville and all behaved
like veteran trouperS, never
missing a cue or performance
and responding to applause
with almost human vanity.
For about nine weeks a
year, Mr.. Thompson travelled
with his dogs from Maine to
Florida and as far West as
Chicago. Between tours, he
trained them in his spare
time.

SOCIAL
SECURITY

Thanksgiving is one of the
holidays of the year which Is
closest to the hearts of all the
people. On this day, millions OF
Americans sit down to a turkey
dinner with all the trimmings),
count their blessings, and hope
for the continued safety and Sc
curity of their families.
An important factor in the
feeling of security which more
than 67,OO0,OO0 Of our fellow
Americans enjoy is the insur-
ance protection provided by the
Social Security program. Aged
workers about to retire no long
er face the threat of poverty
and destitution; Social Security,
by partially replacing the loss
of earned income, provides a
bulwark against that threat.
The survivors of the worker
- widow, children, or parents
- are assured that all income
to the family will not cease with
his death. Retirement payments
to a worker and his wife may
range from $3.50 to $127.50 per
In cases of death, the
survivor payments made to a
family may total $16875 per
month - ali depending on the
average monthly wage of the
These insurance payments re-
present basic minimum Sc
,urity for the worker and his
'amily. They may be supple
nented in many other ways; by
private insurance, home owner

Efforts are directed toward driv-
ng the spectre of fear and utter
leStitution from the American
Gene. They combine to make
his Thanksgiving a more mean
