I'rumsn’s broadcast a week ago Monday night ‘o.Ui oj decisions to remove control from meat and cattle. While r, ° T altogether unexpected, it swat nevertheless a shock and dis- Z 'u.sionmci;t to those who had hoped that ttie p’ut<« ratio rn« at niercst might bt defeated in their current attempt to starve a nation into submission. Roosevelt, the arch enemy t i Heart interest who vitriolic hatreds wen concealed during his reign, hotel these selfish and depraved and dollar-hungry moguls a! bay; but once his eves were mosed, they came cret ping out of then lans. And here they are v in flagrant rule, forcing a nation to its knees. Their successful manipulation of the moat situation is of )b elf a mere incident, and only important when seen as symp tomatic ol a deeper disorder irom which the nation is suffering. Capital and labor are out to get their pound of flesh, and they mean to have it at any costs. Bat we, the people, may re*> as sured that they arc only killing the goose that lays the golden < ;'g When they will have finished all eggs will lie gone; Jot * corpse goore floes not lay egg.-: f To a man looking only a> the affairs of the paassmg moment the current development is not distressing; but to one who I;.; trying to see these things in larger outline, the outlook is far from prophnu,. When our country can be forced to its knees by the meat interests, it. cun be forced by other interests A country or. its knees cannot survive in tin bitterly competitive age. The i ■ hired States deserves a better IdU than oru that is being foisted up m it W«* art heading fm chcio- and disaster The only ray of nope that is left resides *n the bare possibility that the nation •nay awake and -put on its strength arid hurt from power these despotic interests who would slay a nation if such -daughter serv . • * but to increase their ran away dividends. J country is being forced into the arms ol the communism a;c not in Mooscow only but in the counting houses of this coon which we claim so earnestly to abhor. The loer of this natron :ry a:-: well, if the plutocrats would let the revolution which sere-: Roosevelt bought off, slay boUgni off, there would be g'ca'vs hopes for success in beating disastroui- inflation that u- knocking at our doors. fhc voters of a nation get about the kind ol government tney ucsti vc When w< are ready for bettei government we will get it. bat not eru day before. The "gain-or-wreck" interests of this !. .-ucii have won one of die strongest! forts ai«ng tr.<- financial and :«) ramnarts of the nation. Tney have, therefore, jeopardized democracy and the nation. There is but pyrrhic victory, which if , ploiti-d means disaster. When election Tune comes, the voter* of the nation would do well to lay before themselves the rerordr and vote according thereto. I* mu--: not be forgotten that the interest that have breugn the nation to its knees are the same interest that elect the Tal madk-s and Bilbo:: am Rankins.

The church is in need of more hearers who will become active tor widening the jgylri of .serve.-' Are you me of those hearers': KtEi» NEGRO “CHI‘ROHES” CENTRAL The Reverend Miles Mark Fish er. pastor of the White Kook Bap tist Church. Durham, in a recent Recognition Address; “Keep Ne gro “Churches" Central;* defer the Ministerial Alliance of "Dm ham and vicinity, asserts: “That racial churches serve use ful purposes, bet people of nppr v eri theological training are seldom entrusted with the administration of Negro churches. Exceptions are noticeable in episcopal ap pointments and when one has gen erally proven his ability to main tain, racial traditions.*' Mr. Fisher’;-, assertion leaves one to conclude flu the theological schools are planting timber nos suited for the actual need.- of ih. mosses and Catholic Information ~— "< 'h. .yes, but you must stop use ear." U vviit the salesman teaching his cuslomet how to drived 'Rut I should think that throw ing it quickly into reverse would be a better way to stop it than step ping on the .brakes.’' “It sound,- good, lady,” said the salesman with a smile, “but, don’t ever do it You'll wreck the trans miss ion." Shall wt say that the salesman has just given his customer a "com mand ' nt-vei to reverse directions before the car is at ;.i standstill; of course, she eculd do as she pleased, but it would certainly be foolish in this case And can we say that the lady is still free to shift from high to re vci»r whenever she pleases? Or would we say that she’s bound to follow the advice, command, or warning given to her by the sales man'' that is, unless she wants to act against common sense. When we realize that we are much more complicated than even the most expensive car, and that God. that th«- musses hav • the acumen to know their reeds better than the learned men who make up the curricula courses for preachers Another assertion in Mr. Fisher's scholarly and historical address, which history seems t,o prove cor “t -| where Negrose participation in religion is concerned anti-dates Chiufiiv -The doc)rinse of di vine inspiration, the doctrine of faith: tiu- doctrine of Human Brotherhood and the giving of Aim.-." The afore mentioned are the germ-seed of God. and as we understand, the purpose of God is to make men worthy of Hit Image. The Negro church oi Amer ica must not be 100 ?really influ enced by the environment so-call ed Christianity if it is to be inn t ; its purpose in establishing God's purpose on earth. Mi Fisher's ad dress to the Durham Alliance of which he is the president is c contribution in that it should awaken u deepr study on the part of the theological schools to the need of the masse- and their tra ditions and strengthen many churches which are weak in dor trines ' f faith and the divine Spirit but strong on mimicking ••ur "Manufaciurer," has given' us directions for the use of ourselves, can we still -ay that we re free to break His law these Ten Com mandments -- is tha; they are a statement of the principles gov erning our operation such that not even Hr could let us go against those principles, without doing our selves endless harm. That's why so many of us Chris tians stick to our ancient ideas on purity -»nd chastity. We recognize love between men and women as a powerful driving force in our na ture, but God, who planned and built our bodies, designed that pow er only for the building and pro tection of families. In governing' and using that pow er. we have the same choice as the lady has about reversing her speed Certainly we’re free to satisfy that driving force before marriage, or with someone other than our wife, or to prevent the fulfillment of God's purpose in creating it. But just as she'll ruin her car. no we'll mixi our souls. She'll be making a tool of herself, and so shall, wei m
