Dr.. ". Davis
Fired From
liberian Post

MONROVIA, Liberia - DR.. John
w. Davis, director of the U. s.
Foreign Operations Mission to Lii
IBERIA, has been summarily dismis-
sed from his post, three months
before the expiration of his con-
tract. Reports here are that Brig.
Gen. Richard (Dick) Jones, depart
ment store executive and a "fav-
orite son" of important Republi-
cans in Illinois, will succeed to the
job.
General Jones, who is a vice
president of the South Center De-
partment Store, an organization
with an interracial staff, said he
had no official notice regarding
the appointment to a post of any
kind. He said he would keep silent
until he had some definite indi-
cation that he was to be offered an
appointment.
News of the firing of DR.. Davis,
who until he came to Liberia near
ly two years ago was president
of West Virginia State College
struck official circles in Liberia
with dismay. Liberians in the mair
belief DR.. Davis has done a super.
ior job in managing the three score
u. S. technicians working here
under FOA. They say that the
whole program of technical CO.
operation, formerly known a:
Point a, has prospered and grown
under his leadership.
DR.. Davis had only three month!
to serve under his present contrac
and there appeared to be no rea
son for cancelling his appointment
before his tour of duty was com
pleted.

TALLY a victory of a highly or
ganized Nationalist party, we'll fl
nanced and vigorously led, over a
completely disorganized and indif-
ferent United Party with limited
finances.
The campaign had, as both sides
confessed been remarkable for the
indifference of the public and the
small size of audiences at election
meetings. Mr.. Malan's early ap-
peal for new mandate from the
people because of his difficulties
with the Cape Colored (mixed
blood) vote issue had been con-
veniently forgotten early in the
campaign by his own orge nization.
Total Vote Declines
Victory actually came on polling
day when perfectly geared Ma
tionalist party organization went
and got out the vote. Neverthe-
less, the vote was substantially
smaller than in last years general
election. This resulted largely from
the Indifference and participation
of normal United Party voters
Actually more than half of Che
constituencies were uncontested
and of these more than half were
Nationalist. One province in Nata
! did not vote at all. 1t had elected
! its Provincial Council with a nor.
NAL Opposition United party ma,
jority in May.
i The Nationalist, in yesterday:
election for the first time in his
tory, obtained a small majority
in the Cape Provincial Council. Th'
Free State Council is now com
rletely Nationalist, and the part.
has the transval.
The councils in themselves arr
not very important. They hav'
much more restricted powers thar
state legislatures in the United
States.
The elections are important onl.
as an indication of Nationals
strength and the possibilit.
through for reorganization of tn,
Senate.
The Provincial councils play 4;
role in the election of Senators
However, this issue cannot aris'
until next year.

President Jackson is serving O.
the World Councils commission o
international problems. He deliver
a message to the world assembl
during Thursday Aug. 26) morn
ing devotions in Evanston's FRS,
Methodist Church. His topic: 9TH
Suffering Christ; Our Hope TO
Victory"
Upon his arrival at Midway Air
Port, DR.. Jackson revealed to tn
American press representatives, TO.
the first time, the purpose and &C
complishments of his confidential
mission to Europe.
He announced that he had pre-
sented to the International Con-
ference of Christians from Eas'
and West, at Rattvik, Sweden, his
six-point proposal for peace. The
European press hailed DR.. Jackson
as "a great Christian leader with
unusually clear intellect" and stat
ed that his peace proposal makes
him "a true champion of peace"
President Jackson said that the
international conference would soon
make public his proposal, but said
that he urged the conversion of
atomic power into weapons for
peace" and science into an agency
for peace" He was the lone Negro
representative.
DR.. Jackson stressed, "The hope
for civilization is peace. All par
Elephants in another war would be
victims-and there would be no
victors."
The National Baptist president
also revealed that he had actually
met face to face with religious
leaders of the Soviet Union, who
came from Moscow, Russia, to at
tend the Swedish conference. This
marked the first time Russians had
actually participated in person at
peace parley of this type.
During his month long European
tour, DR.. Jackson visited England,
Finland and Sweden, and other
Scandinavian countries. He said
he was shocked to learn that most
Europeans do not trust America,
and feel that the United States is
preparing for another global war.
He added, however, that 81 have
come home convinced now, more
than ever, that America is still
the greatest country on earth"
The welcome home demonstra-
ton at Midway Airport was ar
ranged in honor of DR.. Jackson by
large committee of civic and re-
ligious leaders, headed by the Rev.
George Lawrence. AS DR.. Jack
son arrived at the airport, a bat
terry of press photographers began
! shooting pictures as his wife, Mrs.
! Maude Jackson, and his daughter,
Miss Kenny Jackson, greeted him.
A police detail protected him, but
the throng broke through. 1t took
10 minutes to bring the demonstra-
tors to order so that DR.. Jackson
and his party could get to his car.
The crowd waved banners which
read. welcome Home from Europe,
! President Jackson, A Champion of
! Peace" and "Olivet Welcomes Its
/ Pastor Home from Europe"

Merchants Need To Orqanize

It's urgent that the merchants realize
the necessity of placing the Merchants
Association on a business-like basis At
the present rate of decline, it will be only
a matter of time before the organization
ceases to exist even in name.
The recent resignation of r. p. Counts
from the presidency should be proof
enough that something is askew in the
organization. When the post of president
ceases to be an honor and becomes one
that is simply showed off on someone then
it is time to make some revisions.
We blame no one in particular for
the poor condition and relative inactivity of
the Merchants Association. Everyone is
too busy to worry about things other than
their own business.
When Ir. Counts expressed the opin-
ion that an notwithstanding should be
hired co carry out the program. he was
recognizing 4 need that has been evident
for several years.
y wide-awaAe promotion man could
place the Merchants Association back on
its feet. Nature lly. it would cost money TO
hire . good man but il seems wiser TO pay
money for . good man than to let the or

this being: A man will give you

pipe.
