was inspired from this event
to make some observations of
humanity's advent into 1854.
We don't want our readers to
forget that William Monroe
Trotter was one of the greatest
racial crusaders ever known
in America. He taught thou
sands the real meaning of ra-
cial solidarity. Millions of his
race, continue to revere him. His
great effort was to teach mill
lions of dark Americans that
power of the ballot, freedom
Of the press and speech are
greater than gunsl He did not
want his nation to risk parbi-
cipation in war. unless for sg
gression, invasion or crushing
a bloody revolution. He urged
a generous social security, and
adequate benefits for the aged
and handicapped people Of
America. Our eolored leaders
must take their scepters in
hand, like William Monroe Trot-
ter when he lived, to teach
their brothers and sisters, the
intrinsic value of a dollar. Re-
constructed racial budget and
consumers standards must be
instituted to live within total
pocket book necessities. This
means a readjustment of spend
ing and saving methods. Down
trodden second class racial CT
tizenship must be abolished in
America. A new consumer ra-
eial complex must be organized
1t must be based on productive
energy, racial skill and master
minds, who do not fear compe :
tition. Pooling of finance is the
basis upon which new econo-
mic racial deStinies can be
reached. America is in the grip
Of changing industrial cycle.
Does it make sense if all races
do not take an active part in
this wave CT changes? 1t would
be termed copardice, timidity
and ungratefullness if a con-
centrated racial surge was not
.instigated to be a part of Amer
fca's new Free Enterprise. Cal
culated goals are never reach
ed by morbid attitudes Of de-
featism. If sound racial fl
nancial combination is realized
all aspects of discrimination
will become a sad memory in
America

Dear Monroe:
I tahnk you for the poem. It
served as a good tonic.
I was certainly hit hard with
two major operations within
period of two weeks. Your pray
erful applications in my be-
half enabled me to survive
without any Ill effects. 1t is
true, I have been through a
grave ordeal but ere long I
hope to be up and around and
If I must be less active than
I was in the past, I certainly
will be active enough to keep
many busy with my extensive
charitable, educational and spir-
ftual program.
I am happy to tell you that
all the prayers that were Of
fered for me during my illness,
] referred back to Almighty
God to the end that you and
others who helped me in the
past in spiritual or material
way, would get the benefit of
them. I preferred to leave my
self in the Hands of the Lord
and to take the Sufferings as
they came. The Lord was GER
tainly good to me.
Please God, that sharing in
all the Masses and prayers that
were offered for me, many and
great blessings will come your
way. You richly deserve them.
Begging Gods blessings upon
you for the New Year, am
Your devoted and grateful

'53 THEATRICAL HIGHLIGHTS
By DOLORES GAVIN

NEW YORK - In the enter
tainment world, there have
been a dot of changes during
1858 First Of all all, Lena Lena
Horne has faded almost com
pletely from the Aim limelight.
Gone are the days of lavish
MGM technicolor musicals
which allowed us all a peek at
the fabulous Lena singing
torrid love song. Now Lena APP
pears sparingly at exclusive
clubs which most race custom
ers cannot afford to view.
Then Hilda Simms made a
great comeback this year by
portraying Joe Louis wife in the
story of the hero After
almost five years in Europe.
Hilda returned to New York to
brighten up Broadway with 4
new play she expects to do the
first of the year. Married now
to an italian actor, Hilda is
much more mature - much
more experienced in the the
atre.
And Eartha Kilt rose to even
greater heights this year-with
her broken French and cat eyes
She's appeared many times
on TV to the delight of old
and young and seems to be a
Marilyn Monroe with a voice.
Eartha's "C'est 81 Bon" and II
Wanna Be Bad" are gems of
the year
Also in the vocal field is
sparkling Joyce Bryant, who is
rising faster than a meteor
You'd never guess Joyce is from
strict 7th Day Adventist
family and never wore makeup
until grown girl Joyce
started on a singing career
quite by accident, but she's
certainlydoing well at it - and |
setting her own fads and fash
ions, too. The silver toned hair /
is a Bryant speciality and so
are the distinctive gowns /
which rate copy.
