Miriam was older than her
brother Moses, not just a year or
two older, but old enough, by the
time he was born. 10 manage that
business about getting his mother
for a nurse. Undoubtedly her
mother had coached her for the
interview with the princess tsee

girl must have had sense She was
smart enough to step up to her

moment. A little too soon and she
would have been shooed of as

All the Women Went After Her

All the Women Went After Her
On the morning after the night
when the Israeltes crossed the
Red Sea, we meet Miriam again
This time she leads the song Of
triumph and praise celebrating
the fall OF Egypts might and the
liberation OF her people. Singing
and playing and dancing she led
the women in the celebration of
the Lords victory Here are two
hints about the place Of women
as LEADERS. We already had one
hint il the story Of Moses In the
oulrushes: Smart women GOV
rom smart girls; leaders do not
eome from among stupid people
IN the story Of Miriam and her
victory song, We have first the INIT
that a woman can be a most effec-
tive leader Of women. "All the
women went after her" We are
told. It is not true that women fol-
low men only; strong sensible
WON ain has little trouble in secur-
ing feminine support The other
hint is that Miriam. in her primi-
tive way If you like, was leader
Of her people IN two respects she

ing) as an act Of God. and she was
leading in creative art. 1t is rather
sugge ted that the Song OF
Moses was at first the Song of
Miriam. In short, Miriam took the
lead where she could and as she
could
Too Far
And yet this leader could show
np in bad light, as the story in
Numbers IL shows. 1t appears she
had fallen into the blunder made
by some dictators since: she tried
to run the privatf affairs OF other
people. In way. she could have
argued that Moses marriage was
her affair, since she was in the
family, and what woman does not

riages, especially those Of her own

and clear; When leader becomes
a dictator, even God is no longer
patient.

In recent years we've heard

dent owner of a motor vehicle
damaged by collision with
deer, causing the death of the
deer, may take possession OF
the carcass provided he reports
the accident to a game protec-
tor within twenty-four hours; If,
after investigation, the game
protector finds the damage has
been done as alleged, he shall
give the car owner a certificate
emitting him to the ownership
of the carcass.
The House alo passed a bill
drastically reducing the regis
tration (licenSe plate) fee for
motor-powered buses operating
primarily in municipal areas.
The purpose is to provide some
relief for the financial squeeze
which is leading many such bus
companies to discontinue oper-
ationS. DiScontinuance of SER
vice results in real hardship
for non-carownerS; and it also
hurts all users of the streets
because of the greatly magni-
fled traffic congestion from the
additional cars thrown on the
streets, especially in rush hours.
In the opinion Of a large mai
ority Of House members, the
imperative need for a mass
transportation system in con-
geSted municipal areas more
than offsets the loss in license
plate revenue; particularly since
the loss in revenue is suffered
largely by the municipal areas
where the buses operate.
The Senate passed one bill
and concluded hearings on an
other to help speed up the
highway building program. The
first one, already passed by the
House, diScontinues the highway
construction council; this not
only Streamlines procedures In
highway planning but also saves
some money.
The other bill, heard and
recommended for passage by
the Senate committee on High
ways, would allow the state
highway department to employ
private firms or individuals to
negotiate for state acquisition
of rightS-of-way for national
highways and major thorough
fares of the state highway syS-
tenn. This would relieve a man.

THE NEGRO STRUGGLE
FOR ORGANIZED DEFENSE AGAINST xxx
BY Jean Blake

The white SupremaciStS are
organized and taking the Of
fensive throughout the South.
They have the Klan, the White
Citizens Councils, the State adj
ministrationS and legislatures,
local police forces, and repre-
sentativeS in Congress.
The need for counter-organi-
zation for defense is critical
The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People,
the American Civil Liberties
Union, and especially the AFL-,
CIO must. unite for an all-out
campaign to smash the reac-
tionary alliance in the South
now<
The labor movement must re-
cognize that the attacks on Ne
groes, like Hitler's campaign
against the Jews, are used to
build a fascist force, storm
troopers and all, aimed at divid-
ing the workers, preventing un-
ion organization and emasculat-
ing or destroying the unions
which do exist in the South.
The tasks of the counter-of-
fensive are clear: give the South
ern organizanizing drive top
priority in the national labor
movement for funds and per-
sonnel; organize a broad united
front to support the Negro move

and with defense against vio-

Last week we reported the
Drew Pearson televiSion inter-
view with a KlanSman which
revealed that the Ku KluX Klan
is arming and organizing to
maintain segregation in the
South by violence and intimida-
jtion, and that they are infiltra-
ting. local law enforcement agen-
cieS and utilizing churches for
their purposes.
These facts must be related
to a a.number of the better konwn
incidents of violence in the
South in recent weeks to ap-
preciate the urgency of the need
for organized defense against
terrorism today.
Within the past month in
Clinton, Tenn, Paul Turner, a
young white minister wa S
beaten up for escorting Negro
children to school, and six miles
away the Negro section of Oliver
Springs was rocked by an ex-
plosive repeatedly thrown from
moving car. In Montgomery,
Ala, a Negro cab driver was
clubbed to death by police for
allegendly resisting arrest" and
another Negro was shot by
policeman who said the man
advanced" on him carrying a
loaded shotgun.
The two cases of police vio-
lence against Negroes in Mont
gomery occurred on Saturday
November "a, the same day that
the Ku Klux Klan demonstrated
in downtown Montgomery in
the afternoon and held a rally
outside the city limits at night.
