A very wise Teacher of the long ago once said Man
cannot live by bread alone There are hungers of the
mind and soul that things material satisfy.
Sometimes they in the form of trials and sor-
rows. Sometimes they aspirations that bid US soar
to heights we have dared attempt. Howsoever
they appear, they often go because we fail to
understand their nature
The lovely little refugee in the picture is passing
through an agony of heart. But she seems to have
learned great secret: that the only of power
to Him.
Yes, God and God alone is the answer to the deepest
needs that man can know. As we give best Him,
he gives His best to US! And the God-directed life
finds satisfaction and Joy that can come from no
other
That God and the individual msy be brought together
in vital relationship is the purpose of the Church

JehOVah'S
Witnesses
Jam Harlem

NEW YORK, - Hotels room
ing houses, and private homes
in Harlem absorbed their share
of the 125,00O Jehovah's Wit
nesseS who came here from all
parts of the world to attend the
eight-day International Con-
vention of the religious sect.
Meetings were held at Yankee
Stadium in the Bronx. Months
ago, members of local congre-
cations canvaSsed their neigh
borhoods in an effort to find
lodging for some of the expect
ed visitors. In addition to the
thousands quartered within the
city, many thousands more
were housed in trailer camps in
New Market, New Jersey.
The visitors attending the
world aSsemly represented 96
foreign countries, and came
Irom all over the United States.
Included in this number were
5000 foreign missionaries.
These throngs of people meant
very very little in terms of in
creased business IN the Harlem
area, however. Unlike frateraal
and social organizations, and
even other religious conventions
the Witnesses maintain a strict
schedule f attendance at meet
ingS, or canyaSSing and mis-
sionary work in the community.
Delegates have been housed as
inexpenSively as possible, and
tn witnesses themselves COO
perated in cooking and serving
thousands of meals every day
right in the Yankee Stadium
grounds.
The Jehovah's Witnesses re-
port that the movement OF tne
Watchtower Bible and Tract So
ciety is steadily expanding all
over the world. One of the most
interesting revelations was that
the movement is being carried
on underground in Siberia des-
pite Communist. persecution.
The story Of the underground
movement was told by Konstan-
ii Swirid of Cleveland, who is of
Russian origin. He said that
former military secretary of the
Soviet government favored the
Jehovah movement, and when
Russian members of the reigi-
Gus sect. refused to salute the
Communist flag or serve in the
Russian army, he put them to
work on railroads in Siberia,
rather than send them into ST.
berian mines. This leader even
tually lost favor with the Com
munists, and he, too was sent
to Siberia where he joined the
underground Jehovah move
ment.

Haitian Republic
Denies Color Ban

WASHINGTON Published
reports that the Haitian govern
ment is opposed to the appoint
ment of a colored American
ambassador to Haiti were vi
gorouSly denied and branded as
fantastic by Mauclair Zephirin,
the island republics secretary
of state.
In the past forty years no
colored man from the United
States has filled the position of
ambassador to Haiti. Previ-
ously the appointment of color
ed men to the embassy in Port
are Prince was the usual rule.
That only whites have been
chosen for the post is seen as a
possible origin of the rumor that
Haiti has become afflicted with
color bias.
Haitian Secretary off State
Mauclair Zephirin said. If the
spreaders of this lying rumor
were sincere they would ask the
American State Department for
first-hand information, Haiti
does not practice discrimina~
ton, which would be completely
contrary to our racial origins" ="
He also denied that the United
States government had sought
an agreement with Haiti rela-
tive to the race of an ambas-
sadin to be appointed 10

How little do they see ;. who
frame their Judgement upon
that which seems"
GOV. TCBIN, we called him
afCer his election in 1914. He
held many positions including
Secretary of Labor under Tru-
man. But most Bay 6taters will
probably remember Maurice j.
Tobin not only as former
Governor, but more important,
the first Massachusetts, Cover
nor to sign into law the bill
governors of his day feared to
race, the FEPC, which is still
being side tracked by the Re-
publican Congress.
THIS ROXBURY born son of
Irish immigrants was destined
by his Greater to play his vital
role in short life span. So be
it. But in this brief appearance
Maurice Tobin crowded more
good benefits for oppressed mi
nority groups and labor than
most men whose life span may
double his 52 years. Good men
often sacrifice the lengthy span;
men like Lincoln and Roosevelt
whom Tobin admired. He served
humanity well.
SEN. MCCARTHY, by his re
ported criticism of the right OF
Colored Americans to express or
write their opposition to race in
justice or men qualities, certain
makes him not even comparable
to TObin as a great American.
the real religious Irish are de
mocratic people. But as one
IriShman to another, I wonder
if the Senator has gone lace
curtain" and forgotten the poor
and doWntrodden. Tobin never
forgot.
jim CURLEY never forgot
and Jim had choice variety of
words for any IriShman who
Gid. Curley in his addresses. be
tore colored citizens always re-
minded everyone of the similar
struggles of the two peoples,
lrSt emphasized in Boston by
John Boyle o. Reilly. Men like
Curley and Mccormack passed
the torch of democracy along to
Tobin, Dever, and Kennedy.
Dever even improved upon the
FEPC.
TO FORGET the expressions
of exploited peoples and to clas-
sify all forms of opposition as
radical and Subversive" is
somewhat of a crime for any
member of an exploited race.
That is as true of a colored
'lace curtain" as it is OF an
Irishman, who goes high hat.
Mr.. McCarthy's attitude toward
colored people has been AFRO
CANT; fully as arrogant as the
British and Yankee e S were
against his own people.
THE COMMUNIST tag was
attached to many loyal Ameri-
can groups, including the Ma
ACP for advocating the FEPC |
and an integrated or racially
mixed Armed Services. The FBI
files will show such SANDER was
made even in Congress by in
tolerant DixiecratS, Colored peo-
pie fighting for equalities have
been the victims of much OF !
this batting" propaganda. !
Some even lost jobs, but were
reinstated later.
John Mccormack stand
ing in the Halls of Congress,
was one of the too few Con-
greSsmen who dared stand up
against the intolerance of the
Dixiecrats which has been the
one chief factor of making the
comparatively few colored COM
munistS which exists. How many
men, including Senator Nc
Carthy, have sought to remove
the causes of diScontent?" How
many votes for FEPC, Civil
Rights? Some men talk demo-
cracy, how many vote that way?
INTOLERANCE is not exclu-
sive "communiStic" quality. l.
is a much evident practice
among some people who call
themselves patriotic American
and who hide behind the Flags.
The Ku Klux Klan did this and
there are other secret societies

and just plain Dixiecrats today.
M. Mccarthy needs to learn this
lesson well. Massachusetts, is
proud to have had men like
Maurice J. Tobin who did learn
and helped our Democracy.
