The Negro supporters of Senator John L. Mcclellan in
his bid for third term in the United States Senate have
argued 1T racial political suicide put all eggs
In one basket They say this reference to Negroes cast
ing their vote for former Governor McNath July o.
These Negroes with the gift of tongue and bring their
arguments in such forceul and with such sweet
oyerures that the ugarcoated quinne pill appears on the
surface to be honey drops But when the surface is
moved, there can be no mistake that it is quinne which
serves its purpose qunine but is substitute
for sugar honey.
The people that preach this philosophy outstanding

He supported the filibuster by voting against

Or Arkansas Negroes were not expecting their
senator to vote for FEPC and many other civil
rights bills, although he should be expected TO-

Leader In Revolt Against
Democratic Party

Back in l948 when disgruntled southern Dem
ocrats staged a walk out the party's civil
rights proposal one of its main leaders was form
er Governor Ben Laney. Laney, bitter over the
civil rights proposals placed in the Democratic
Partys platform by those who followed the liberal
leadership of former President Harry S. Truman,
did all in his power to carry Arkansas DAecratlc,
He undoubtedly had the full support of Senator
Mcclellan for the senior Arkansas Senator nomi-
mated Mr. Laney for president at the Democratic
Convention in Philadelphia July a. 1913
Parts of Mr. McClellan's address nominating a
No / Dixiecrat for president of the United States
follows:
Proposals that have been made and a So
called -misna civil rights program OF leg
stature that has been sromitted to the Cen
gress by the present leadership tIruman)
of our party believe conravene and Wei
ously violate both the letter and the spirit OF
the constitution of the United States.
I'VE have no alternative except to oppose
with all our might and strength In this con-
vention, and within the frame work OF the
Democratic Party and in the halls of Con-
gress this assault upon constitu ionai Demo
cratic government. If this program tIrumans
civil rights program) should ever be enacted
into law it will be the beginning of deterio-
ration and collapse of the liberties now guar
anteed under the Federal Constitution to the
states to the local communities and to she
people themselves.
I'VE are striving for a choice in this con-
vention of a leader in our party of the next
president of the United States. Not man
who favors this civil rights program but one
who will oppose its enactment"
With this nominating speech Mcclellan left nc
doubt as to where he stood on not only civil
rights issue but Mr. Truman and the Democratic
Party itself This is item No T. of the McClel-

funny but it's a fact. on every
street in the more exclusive pesi-
dental sections of cities there
live families who are trying to
give the impression of being bet
ter off than they are. The house
is bigger than they can afford
they really keep themselves in
debt pretending not to be in debit
And then there are the rich who
pretend to be poor. These are not
all Texas millionaires trying to
look like coW-hands. When the
church (for instance takes its
every-member canvass and APP
proaches some one who is known
to be wealthy though not generous
and who may have just bought
an expensive car, how familiar
is the response: I'D be glad to
increase my pledge but l can't
afford it,
Treasure and Trouble
Pastors of wealthy congrega-
tions, lawyers and doctors too,
can tell you they know people
who would be able to shed their
troubles. or most of them, if they
just could lose their money. The
reader can verify this by reading
any newspaper for a few weeks
and checking up on head-lined
tales of people in trouble. Not
always, but often, the trouble
started either because the person
involved had too much money, or
because he wanted money too
much. Alcoholism, for instance:
who are the alcoholics you know?
Are most of them busy people in
moderate circumstances, or are
they people with more time and
money on their hands than they
know quite what to do with? Or
take the divorce stories. At the
time this column is being written
the story is being headlined of a
nationally notorious divorce.
Readers are led to believe that
neither the marriage nor the di-
vorce would have taken place if
the young man had been, say, a
school teacher or a plasterer. His
millions were bait-as any one
could have guessed.
A Good Name Is Better
When some smart Alec Cor
ALICE asks you. IF money isn't
the best thing there is, name me
something better" you can quote
Proverbs right away: "A good
name is better than riches"
(This isn't the only better thing,
but it is one.) 1t is not always
necessary to choose between the
good name and the money; but
ask the man who has both, which
he would rather have. He will
tell you, his good name, of course.
When a business is sold, the good
will" sometimes comes at high
err figure than the place and all
its fixtures and inventory. For
what people think of you is far
more important to you.

answer to most problems, the
Bibles warnings are almost the
only ones we can ever hear.
When Money Comes First
There is one special danger
that runs through all the others:
the danger of putting money first.
We say what is So-and-so
worth?" when we ought to say
How much money does he have?"
A worthless rascal may be very
rich. The United States has
found it necessary to deport men
who could buy you out, dear read
er, and me too. If we put money
first, we measure men by
crooked yardstick. Then if we
think of money as the most de-
sirable thing in life-or property
of any sort, not money alone
we shall cut corners to get it. If
it were true that money is the
principal thing, then we would
lie and steal to get it-just as
many persons do. Think of the
lies told every day in the bust
ness world, recall the wealthy
men who have been convicted of
evading their taxes. Once think
of money as Value Number One,
and you will begin eXcusing all
the sins. provided a man has
big enough pile.
Fancy Front
You could have an interesting
time collecting the lies that are
connected in one way or anoth-
er with money. Proverbs points
out that some rich men pretend
to be poor and some poor men
pretend to be rich. That sounds
