Congratulations, Lt. Hudner
The first Medal of Honor given by the Navy during the
Korean war was awarded to Lt. Thomas J. Hudner, who
tended among hundreds of Communists in an attempt to
rescue the Navy's first Negro aviator. Ensign Jesse L.
Brown, who also happened to have been the first Negro to
attend Annapolis.
It was in December that Lt. Hudner, after noting that
Ensign Brown was forced down in his plane behind enemy
lines, crash-landed his own plane in the tiny field and went
to the aid of his companion. Unable to open the canopy of
Brown's plane, Hudner packed the fuselage with snow to
keep the flames away from Ensign Brown.
Later Lt. Charles Ware, USMC, arrived and helped Lt.
Hudner free the dying soldier, despite the fact that they
were surrounded by the enemy. Ensign Brown, the facts
show, died a short time after his rescue from the injuries
he received in the crash.
We wanted our readers to know more about this little
news story, which we believe to be one of the greatest acts
of heroism in the Korean War. It is not only a great lesson in
personal valor for our soldiers but it possesses tremendous
significance for the United States in the foreign countries.
It gives vitality and strength to our foreign policy advocates
in this country and it makes a deep, impression upon the
satellite nations of our democracies.
We congratulate Lt. Hudner. White and Negro soldiers
can and are making good partners on the warfront. Teamwork 
is possible by white and Negroes on the homefront. It
is the one big damper to the United States in the minds of
the smaller nations of the world. America's influence in world
affairs will be respected in proportion to the good or bad
impressions we give to these nations on the way we treat
the colored and minority groups in this nation.

Buying for cash and saving some of your income by investing in government 
bonds is one way to insure one's prosperity against times of depression. 

You can plan your life and your actions without regard to what others 
think or do, but you can't live to yourself whether you want to or not.
Judging from the ballyhoo that one reads in the advertisements beauty 
is a matter of selecting the right soap and cold cream.

Marshall's grasp on the doctrine of
law as it affects civil rights."
Former Supreme Court Justice
Samuel I. Rosenman, luncheon
chairman, praised Mr. Marshall
for "righting the shocking wrongs
directed against Negro soldiers in
Japan and Korea.
Mr. Marshall returned recently
from a trip to both countries
where he investigated complaints
from Negro soldiers convicted by
Army courts-martial that they had
received unfair trials.
Mr. Rosenman said that the NA
ACP, through the intercession of
its special counsel, had had sentences 
reduced in the cases of 22
of the 40 convicted soldiers.
In summarizing his trip, Mr.
Marshall charged General MacArthur 
with responsibility for maintaining 
the color line" in the Army's 
Far East Command.
While admitting that there were
a few mixed Army units on the
Korean battlefront, he asserted
that the general practice was one
of "rigid segregation." He accused
the commander of the United Nations 
forces of "failing to implement 
the President's order pointing
to the elimination of segregation in
the armed services."
He said that "the rule of segregation 
was most glaringly apparent
at the headquarters of the Far
East Command, to which "no Negoes 
are assigned." He said this
contrasted sharply with the Air
Force's policy.
The difficulties in Korea, Mr.
Marshall said, stem directly from
the Army's "segregation policy. He
told of the unequal penalties meted
cut to negro GIs in comparison
with those given white soldiers. In
the Air Force and other mixed
units, he said, there were no instances 
of the unfair courts-martial 
which he found in the Army.
"As long as we have racial segregation 
in the Army we will have
the type of injustice of which
these courts-martial are typical,
Mr. Marshall concluded.

It seems that politician Grover
Whalen had his own idea about
protocol, whatever that is, and knew
where he wanted the guests seated.
On this basis, certain persons such
as Charles P. Romulo, Philippine
foreign secretary; Jacob Malik.
Russian deputy foreign minister,
and others were closer to the
French leader than was Lie.
The same went for the wives of
distinguished guests. In the UN,
there is a strict placing of officials
at all occasions, and never, oh never
does a person sit in a better seat
than his superior
Because this was not, followed in
New York Lie first complained with
John F. Simmons, U. S. State department 
protocol man, who had
nothing to do with the seating.
Then he complained to Whalen.
By the weekend the whole story
had been publicized although Lie
did not intend that to happen. In
the meantime, Dr. Bunche has not
been quoted on what he thinks of
the whole mess.

Southern U. Hears
Miss Marian
Anderson
An audience 
of two thousand students and
faculty filled the auditorium-gymnasium 
of Southern University for
MARIAN ANDERSON'S first appearance 
at the Louisiana institution. 

The program was characteristic of
the artistry and power of the sing
er. There were lieders by Schubert,
and a group of English songs by
Britten and Quilter. The Italian
operatic aria was O Mio Fernando
from Donizetti's La Favorita. In
the group of spirituals was the
moving "He's Got the Whole World
in His Hands" which held the audience 
in silence at the finish. In
keeping with the Easter season,
Miss Anderson sang Schubert's
"Ava Maria" as the final encore
Franz Rupp was the fimiliar and
excellent accompanist.
The world famous singer was
presented by the Lyceus Committee 
of Southern University.

MAJORING WITH MINORS
Train your children to always
kind and considerate of others.
Don't alow your children to think
that difference in others is odd
Give them a sypathetic attitue toward 
the start toward individualism.
Don't let your children have prejudiced 
feeling toward other races
and religions. These attitudes are
ways a reflection of what they
hear, and feel that you are thinking 
There are no ware and quarrels
quite so cruel as racial and religious
ones-and these have their beginnings 
in inherited prejudices.
Don't allow your children to be
snobbish. This, too, is inherited
you can choose the most congenial
friends for your children, just as
you do for yourselves, without recourse 
to "class" superiority.
Teach your children to regard
and respect older people especially.
The question was recently asked:
"Should we teach our children to
say" Yes, Ma'am. Yes Sir"?
So many deviations and variations
of the original yes and no are made.
Sometimes its Yeah, Naw even–and
such expressions sound so crude
and rude. I have heard so many
older people express the fact that
they definitely perfer the original
Yes Ma'am and No Ma'am, Yes Sir.
No Sir? And so do I. For they sound
more pleasant and respectful.
Let's have our children to avail
themselves of the wonderful op
portunity of studying books on Etiquette, 
found in our own local public 
libraries. Mothers, take chapter
by chapter in the evenings after
dinner and help your children to
learn good etiquette. Such knowledge 
will be of inestimable value
to them all through life.

Smith Lauds Washington As
One Of "World's Great Men"
BOOKER T. WASHINGTON
BIRTHPLACE—(SNS)—
Booker
T. Washington was landed as the
nation is foremost ambassador of
racial goodwill by a high Baptist
leader here Tuesday on the 95th
anniversary of the late educator.
The speaker was Dr. Roland
Smith, an officer of National Baptist 
Convention and a minister of
Little Bock, Arkansas.
S. J. Philips; president of the
Booker T. Washington Memorial,
introduced Dr. Smith, who shared
the day's honors with T. C. Walker
a classmate of the late Booker T.
Washington and Gloucester County
lawyer
In a world of class struggle, selfish 
nationalism and world imperialism, 
the message of Booker T.
Washington,' 'said Dr. Smith, "is
that no man can hurt his fellowman 
without working injury to himself 
that in the spirit and practice
of brotherhood, interracial goodwill 
and other forces that contribute 
to a peaceful and harmonious 
relationship of man with man,
we reach our highest and noblest
aspirations in life."
It was through this pilosophy of

sympathetic understanding of other 
people and particularly the people 
of the South, said Dr. Smith
"that Washington demonstrated the
nobility of his soul and the high
purpose of his life."
Dr. Smith hurled a challenge to
youth to accept the life of Booker
T. Washington as their yardstick in
the present chaotic world. He said:
"The life of Booker T. Washington
should be an inspiration to every
boy and girl who is ambitious, who
wants to rise and make his contributton 
to humanity—For from humble 
birth, a slave undergoing and
enduring deep suffering, bitter poverty 
and facing the added barriers
of race, Washington rose to the lofty
heights of statesmanship, a great
educator and a Moses tat his people." 
the Baptist leader declared.
Dr. Smith likened the influence
and leadership of Washington, a
native Virginian, unto that of Henry
W. Grady. Washington, he said, became 
an ambassador of good will
following the tragic Reconstruction
Era and rendered great service
to this nation in healing the wounds
and removing doubts at a time who
our entire social structure was no
the verge of collapse.
He also paid tribute to Washington 
for his vision and leadership 
in harmoning the white and
colored people to a program for
mutual advancement. "We should
never permit any outside influence
or foreign teachings to drive a wage
between the American Negro and
the white man. Our friendship must
be based upon true love and a propier 
appreciation of one for the
other."
The speakers also praised Mr.
Phillips for "his vision and his unrelenting 
efforts to establish the
Booker T. Washington Memorial,
Which is a sacred memorial to
one of the world's greatest, men."

Four teams — The Giants in the
National League, and the New York
Yankees, "Boston Red Sox and Detroit 
Tigers in the American — are
clinging to the once-accepted maximum 
of 14 home night games each,
The Others, excepting the Chicago
Cubs, whose Wrigley Field has no
lights, have scheduled from 19 (Chicago 
White Sox) to 53 (St. Louis
Cards).
St. Louis will be the most active
after-hours town, with the Cards'
53 and the Browns' 31 schedule
night games totaling 84.
Generally speaking plans for
televising big league ball in 1951

have been outlined more cautiously
than, they were a year ago. Everybody 
the minor league to the
department of justice has had some
of major league telecasts.
But there is one cold fact: The
number of television sets in the U.
S. has practically doubled in the
past year. More people are going to
see televised baseball than ever before. 

Six of the 16 American add National 
League teams, including all
three New York Clubs will televise 
alt 77 home games in 1951,
They are the Giants, Yankees, Dodg
ers. Cubs, Red Sox and Indians.
Three others, the Phillies, Athletics
and White Sox, will telecast all
day games but no night games.
The Boston Braves will television
all their day games and 14 their
32 home night games. The Clincinnati 
Reds and Detroit Tigers are
exercising extreme selectivity—the
Reds will televise exactly 27 week
day afternoons, and the Tigers "35
games — but no Sundays; holidays
or nights."
As last year, Pittsburgh will do
no televising at all. Flans for the
Cardinals and, Browns are still uncertain 
due to the competition by
sponsors for time on St. Louis' one
local channel.
Cincinnati's plans for 21 television
games represents a come down from
last year, when all 77 Redleg home
games on Television. But the bigest 
outback of all will be Washington's, 
where the senators, the
televised all 77 home, games last
year, have reduced that figure for
1951 to just 21.

Joe Louis Is
Charles' Top
Boxing Rival
The National
Boxing Association Thursday elevat
ed Ex-champion Joe Louis to the
spot of sole logical contender for
the heavyweight crown of Ezzard
Charles.
The NBA also continued its recognition 
of Light Heavyweight
Champion Joey Maxim and Lightweight 
King, Ike Williams but again
threatened to uncrown the two unless 
they defend their titles soon.
The NBA announced its latest
ring ratings for the eight divisions
of professional boxing—from heavy
weight to flyweight. Only in the
middleweight field, ruled by Sugar
Ray Robinson, did it fall to find at
least one logical contender.
In listing Louis as the only
cal contender for the heavyweight
title, the NBA passed over Lee Savold, 
Rex Layne and Jersey Joe
Walcott, classing them merely as
"outstanding boxers."
