New York (Global) Among
the happy notes we received this
week was one from the slightly
delirious James r. Lawson, Clio
balls UN correspondent. 1t seems
he is now a daddy all over again

put in her appearance at Bronx
Hospital last Friday. Wife, Mar
tina, and baby are doing well, and
big sister Kathryn Althea waits
impatiently at home for her first
glimpse Of the new arrival. They
will be home this week. Mean
while, daddy is busy passing out
cigars and sending kilograms and
cablegrams, among them, one to
Their Imperial Majesties, the EN-
peror and Empress Of Ethiopia.
From Louise C. Lane, President
Of the American Puerto Rican
Workshop, came a notice Of their

have been a good discussion. DR..
Benjamin B. Greenberg, Miss Syl-
via Bohr, Eugene Calderon, DR..
William S. Jackson, and Miss Ra-
chel Stephenson participated in the
discussion. However, we do hope
to make the Workshop dinner
meeting Wednesday, March 9, and
their final meeting May 18.

enough to break the law and go
to the penitentiary, that l want

"It is true that | have fought
for Negroes to have opportunity to
conduct their own business in their
own neighborhoods. If people are
going to prey on the frailities of
my people, then | want Negroes
to have the same opportunity to do
the same preying as anyone else.

A federal grand jury started in

1t was learned that supenas have
been issued and witnesses asked
to testify about their knowledge
of the interlocking Of politics, po-
lice and gaming. Others whose &C
Invites repeatedly are being in

former manager of Joe Louis, and
Capt. Kinzie Blueitt of the Wa

Capt. Blueitt's district has been
the scene of many raids recently.
Many people see them as retalia-
ton by the supporters of Mayor
Martin Kennedy. Kennedy was
dropped by the democratic organi-
cation for his bid for his third
term as mayor. Dawson reported
ly was one of the main forces be-
hind the move to drop Kennedy.
The daily newspapers have been
giving lot of space to Dawson,
calling him the man who controls
the South Side. Oldtime politicians
say they cannot recall when so
much attention has been given a
Negro politician.

Committee, today issued a
plea to all highway users
whether in motor vehicles or

tentive to traffic conditions
which will be encountered

Pedestrians and bdcyclists

motor vehicles must give
greater consideration to the
safety of all others because
we have the largest increase
in registrations in the history
of the Commonwealth.
Memorial Day Is tradition

the memory Of the dead and
no careless or willful act
should disrupt the solemnity
and reverence of the holiday.

They Have Not Died In Vain
BY ST. CLAIR KIRToN

BY ST. CLAIR KIRTON
To the American and Canadian War Veterans and
Who gave their lives in the fight for the Freedom
nankind)
United twain When danger lurked about your
sacred name,
Your sons, regarding fortune nor great fame,
Rallied around your banners, giving all
Their blod, their lives, in answer to your call
From Cities towns and hamlets off they went,
Frustrating the enemy's bold attempt
To conquer; then to tread your blessed shores
Wreaking destruction with his tainted cores.
Your sons gave all to save your Liberty =
Rich, priceless heritage that men might be
free;
Never shall we say they have died in vain
So long as men their Freedom shall retain
