Well lhal i.-; just too l)ad. The pity of it all is the Negro ^hou!d have Icli the South in far -ater numbers since 1941). Maybe then these "decent" white Soiith- would not be worried but. doing some intelligent thinking bout giving the Negro his rights CHIurl to that enjoyed by all other Anierican.s. The greatest progress for improv ed white and Negro relations in the South have always been wit nessed during periods of great mi gration of Negroes from the South. The white farm owners upon find ing themselves without cheap Ne gro farm hands, immediately will call upon their fellow associates to find some plan to save them from going out of business. After all, you can not raise tobacco and cotton on mint juleps. The local white lead ers of the community will call emergency conferences with local suns. Thosi. who \Mll be left behiud will inherit a richer and fuller life. However, we must not be fooled. The white south must, yes must change its customs toward the Ne gro, if they except any large pro portion of Negroes to remain in the South. We must not be satisfied with temporary "expenmenls.’ Ne groes today are needed lo farm the land. They arc needed lo load the ships ana boats. They are needed at least fur the duration of the war in the factories, mines and mills. Tomorrow is another day. The white South tiiusl oe made to understand that Negroes all over America want nothing short of whal George Washington, Thomas Jefferson. Abraham Lincoln and Franklin I), Roosevelt have said all .Americans are entitled to; A Free and Equal Opportunity for the Pur suit of Happiness. Negroes do not have this today in the Southland. Thousands upon thousands of Negroes from the farms and cities in every section of the South will continue to fill the .•■anks of the Negro March to Free dom until Freedom is won for all Negroes NORTH.

He was returned to this city on Fjri- day and is in jail awaiting trial The man is charged with enter ing the home of Dr. Clarence £. Smith, at 327 Newbem Avenue last May 21, about 3o’clock in the morning, by a screen. He left a vivid fmgerprint on the window sill, which was positively identi fied by police as being his, and the indictment followed. During the same day of the burglary, officers locate Curlee at a local home unloading coal. When he saw them he fled, and eluded the police until his recent arrest. Clara Coghill and AHene Vick were asleep in the room which Curlee entered. When the man turned on the light the two wom en were awakened and discovered Curlee standing in the room in the nude. Their screams ca'ised him to flee, nothing was stolen. Curlee’s police record includes a charge of indecent exposure.
