the old pages and get a clean
fresh one because it is a new be-

forget all Of the unpleasantness of

Be so thankful that you have

Think Of others and make your
New Year a happy one, too. Think
of the sick and shut-ins. Spend a
little time with them, occasionally.
This New Year forgive those you
think have made you unhappy.
Make a resolution to think twice

This Is what the beloved Will
Rogers thought Of the weekly
newspaper:
Take away my ham, take away
my eggs, even my chill, but leave
me my newspaper.
Even If 1t has such purely local
news as Jim Jones came home
last night Unexpectedly and blood
shed ensued, or 'Jes Bushyhead,
our local MD, is having one of
the best years in his career, prac-
tically speaking - but they just
won't pay him when they get well,
and election amt far off, and
everybody is up for office that
can sign an application blank
Now all that don't seem much
news to you. But it is news, es-
pecially when you know the people
and they are your own folks. So,
no matter how punk you think
your local newspaper is, let them
take it away from you for a while
and see how you feel. The old
newspaper, I think, is about our
biggest blessing.

CURE Group Claims
Sex BGsic Cause
Bitter Race ReIofionS

Norfolk, Va. (ANP) - A new
organization was recently formed
here to explore an angle Of race
relations that has repeatedly been
ignored. The Committee Undoing
Racial Evils, founded and headed
by Mrs. Floretta Sears Thomas, is
concerned with the sex angle Of
the problem Of race relations.
The group holds that the under
lying problem Of race relations is
sexual. 1t claims that only the Ne
gro woman and the white man can
do anything substantial about the
problem because they are free here
as the white woman and the Ne
gro man are not free.
Mrs. Thomas and other CURE
officers claim that the truth on
race relations is kept from the
people. What has been written on
race mixing leaves untold the real
issues involved in the handicaps
American Negroes are suffering
because of the dominance of the
white man in the field of sex re-
relations.
CURE officials claim that racial
segregation is aimed only at the
Negro man and the white mans
scheme is to use this to protect his
women while he is free to cross
the line for Negro women. CURE
officials say they plan a thorough
study Of this issue and that the
truth will be found and given to
the people whom they claim are
kept in the dark by the white man
and most Negro leaders.

Nonfarm employment in Mime

time high for November at 971, 900,
according to Frank T. Starkey,
Commissioner Of Employment Sec
urity. While this total showed a
seasonal drop Of $500 from the
October level, it represented a gain
of 1900 over November of last
year, the first time in 1861 that
current employment has been
above year-ago figures. Indications
are that employment this winter,
while involving usual seasonal de-
clines, should continue at levels
higher than for the corresponding

knack for sales, have found so
many valued uses for this by
product that Stag has risen
from the dumps to enviable
stockpile status.
Stag is produced during the
refining process Of iron and
steel. 1t occurs because many
impurities in iron ore will not
melt in the furnace without
chemical assistance.
The assistance is provided by
fluxes, the basic one being lime
stone. The limestone combines
chemically with the impurities
to form a scum or Stag. This
floats to the top of the molten
metal. When the furnaces are
flushed or tapped, the Stag is
diverted to dumps, or nowadays
to processing plants, where it
cools and solidifies.
Sideways said that this form
er waste product now probably
surrounds YOU. It noted that
about 80 per cent of the mineral
rock wool for home and indus
trial wall insulation utilizes
Stag.
The publication also pointed
out that Stag is widely used as
a fill-in material on construc-
tion sites, in addition to being a
major ingredient in cement and
concrete. The nations interstate

Of explosions hit South Africa. The
blasts were believed to have been
set off by new African under
ground organizations protesting
the governments harsh racial seq
regation policies. Among the places
hit were a suburban post-office,
several African affairs offices, and
an electric power station, mainly
around johannesburg and Port

A RECENT population census in
Kenya says there are approximate
ly 5000 Europeans now living In
that East African country. This Is
about 1000 less than last year and
the same number as In 1859. The
figure for 1858 was $4,000 for
1857, $4,000 and for 1856, $4,000.
Throughout the five-year period
there has been a steady increase in
the Asian population and this
years figure stands at 49, 900
compared with $4,000 in 1856.
The biggest increase, totalling
10000 occurred in 1956-57. The
African population was 1921, 900 in
1856. With an assumed rate Of two
and one quarter per cent each year
since the last census in 1913, It Ia
now believed to be about 6.99s, 900.
