Right-But Wrong
The above caption would, according to its record, more accurately
paraphrase the time worn subterfuge—"Separate but equal"
which has piled up in its wake those irreparable and incurable
casualties in the stratas of our civilization. Not only is this so, it
has come the time to "nibble" at the grass-roots of our good
offices and influence in the promulgation of a world peace. It
has run side by side with every form of injustice and privation
known to the catalogue of discrimination and is today seeking a
place among the subversive footballs, that are being carried over
the gridiron of freakish isms and unsavory propaganda.
Strange as it may seem, with its present and prominent evidences 
at every Negro school cross-road and the ugly detours it
has made in the deformities of an educational structure, regimented 
and enforced upon children whose parents were reared out of
the political structure and often chased from the bargaining counter 
of Democratic procedures.
We long for peace, especially within the confines of our state
family-circle and fervently do we pray for a standard meant for
men, not races, to the end of effective brotherhood end Christian
relationship.
Down the long and weary years, we are at last met with a
crisis. We stand at the crossroads, over whose parting paths we
read in the sign of retribution, at Caesar's Rubicon—"Stop and consider." 
There is where we stand today in the midst of one of the
most restless stages of this nation, in its stride to continue a Republic 
"under God—government that shall not perish from the face
of the earth."
While there are those who are spending their energies and
vain worship around the flesh pots of a dying past, that has already 
written its epitaph, they surely must love their America
more. Here is a priceless heritage, whose basic structure, was
commended of no less a brilliant statesman than William Pitt, the
most important document ever given off at any time within its
framework that has braved the ages, and is daily unraveling the
noble principles of equality and justice.
Those of another generation will doubtless look upon the vain
worshippers, still not convinced that the majesty of our courts will
not tolerate circumvention, with pity and regret and will weep
over the ashes of the dead fires that burned up the finest opportunities
of an era on the sacrificial altar of "separate—but equal"
and having at its polluted roots the fertilizer, "right-BUT WRONG"!
—"Separate—BUT EQUAL"!
Two funny words, indeed, more ambigious than the trickcatch-phraseology 
of the scribes and Pharisees. They have struggled
down the ages in the sheep-clothes of delusion and prostituted
every citadel they encompassed; still—"they went into no quarters 
for winter, pitched no tent at nightfall"—and have left among
us-their dead to bury it's dead.

Who Will Shoulder This Responsibility?
Dr. Herman Ebeling, world reknown German Psychologist
from Frankfurt, Germany, in conjunction with the Friends of World
Brotherhood In America, announces this week that a conference
will beheld between leading German and American minds and
ranking officials of both governments to determine what shall be
done with one of occupied Germany's most pressing problems, the
Negro Child.
Quite a number of months have elapsed since the bulk of
Uncle Sams forces withdrew from German soil and left behind
both Mother and offspring. The fact that the German economic
standard is at present very low, with their lone parent in many
cases being unable to support them it is necessary to place these
children in Welfare homes, Social Agencies, charity supported
schools, youth offices, institutions and private homes.
The blame in it's entirety cannot be placed on the American
Occupation forces. History is merely repeating itself. In every
major conflict down through the ages, wherever occupations forces
have been left behind, there has arisen the same social and economic 
problem. A number of American troops returning from
the occupied zones who admittedly engaged in relations with German 
Frauliens, report that due to the extremely high financial status 
of the American G. I., and the adverse, conditions of most of
the German women who were struggling for physical survival, the
soldiers were approached.
While there has been various estimates of the number of colored 
war babies left in Germany, Dr. Ebeling told us there was no
disproportionate number of colored babies over the number left
by the white troops.
The displaced persons bureau of The United Nations and The
United. States Department of State report however that these children 
some of which are of school age and older are for adoption
by American citizens. Potential American parents through adoption 
might do mankind a great service by investigating this matter 
thoroughly and taking under their wing these "Orphans Of The
World," as hurdreds of American whites have done already.
Parties interested in adoption or contributing financially to
these children should contact the Friends of World Brotherhood,
New York, N. Y., United Nations Headquarters, New York, N. Y.,
or The Department of State, Washington, D. C.

Polluted Air Causes Cancer?
Dr. Paul Kotin, of the University of Southern California, recently. 
One thing Dr. Kotin found was that exhaust products of
connection with the alarming increase in lung cancer observed recently. 
On thing Dr. Kotin found was that exhaust products of
gasoline and diesel engines contained several well-known cancerproducing 
chemicals.
When these chemicals are painted on the skin of mice, he
said, they often produced skin tumors. It was found that exhaust
fumes from slow-running engines, and those not in good condition, 
produced more cancer-producing chemicals than others.
Dr. Kotin believes that present-day civilization is creating "a
marked cancer hazard in the air over our big cities" as the fumes
and gases from various sources accumulate in the atmosphere. He
said the increasing frequency of lung cancer in cities, compared
to the rate of that cancer in rural areas, indicates that polluted air
may be one of the clues to the differential.

REVIEWING
THE NEWS
By WILLIAM GORDON
Managing Editor, Atlanta Dally World.
"I had heard it so much that it had begun to irritate me,"
said the principal of a small Southern high school. "It irritated
me," he added, "because the persons who frequently bring up the
question, seldom offer a solution or never lake a stand in the
matter."
This time, it was about music. It seemed that somewhere,
some place in a rather obscure Negro school community, there was
a very good musician. He had done such a good job with his
pupils that word had got around he was the best in the business.
As a matter of fact, he had taught and encouraged several youngsters 
to try for higher honors in the profession. They took his advice 
and became, successful.
Outstanding-achievements being what they are, the reputation 
of his pupils also began to spread. It had reached an unusu-al pitch at the moment.
The superintendent had been worried for a long lime. He
felt he was missing something that children in all other schools
should be getting. He was right. So he spoke to the principal:
"There are so many useful things your people can do. Yet,
because of conditions, We can't share in them."
The principal was slow in responding. So the superintendent
walked slowly toward him and in low voice said, "I have been
praying for the time to come when this will not be the case," he
said.
There was something which also disturbed the principal. He
had heard this many times before. But for the first time he had
noticed that what was being said was sincere and true. This
made him think about similar, situations and statements.
He remembered the time when the young white musician
walked into the dining room of a fabulous hotel and began talking 
about his first, meeting with Negro musicians. His praise for
them was very high... so much so that it irritated some of the
other guests, about the room. When asked what he really thought
about musicians in general, he replied, "color means nothing to
me. As long as a man can blow a horn, I'll sit beside him anywhere 
anytime."
There was complete silence for a moment. The youngster paid
his check and walked out. He had been gone for only a few seconds 
when a voice said, "Those are my sentiments. I have beenjust 
waiting for someone to express them for me."
The principal kept on thinking out of the past. He recalled
the time when white visitors came to his high school during the
time when he was a student. Someone would always make the
remark, he said; "Your classrooms look like a flower garden. There
is such a blend of colors here." He also recalled the time when
someone said, "I certainly wish I could speak like your high school
principal, or at least have the chance to be taught by him." The
principal was a youngster at the time of this statement, but he
kept it with him down through the years.
This meeting with superintendent of schools set the principal
to thinking about a lot of things. He went back to his childhood
and wondered why the people down the street always asked about
sitting in the Negro churches on Sundays and haying the chance
to see a Negro school play a football game. When they were permitted 
to come, they always went away saying "we had the greatest 
thrill of our lives."
Less spectacular, he recalled the sandlot baseball games and
the many times he and his friends up the street slipped off to take
a swim together in the creek back of the field. Moreover, he
thought about the time he sang in the choir his friends up the
street were permitted to come in the church and sit in the first
row.
If all of this could happen during his early life, he asked
himself, why should it be so difficult for professional talent to be
utilized by all today. But here again, he found himself dreaming. 
He was encouraged however, when he remembered the
words of his superintendent. "I have, been praying for the time
o come."

THE TIP-OFF
BY EMORY O. JACKSON
Alabama and Mississippi rank at
the bottom of the list of Southern
states in the number and ratio of
Negro voters.

Barbour County
has 716 Negro war
veterans yet only
63 qualified Negro
voters. Blount
County with 50
Negro war veterans 
hasn't a single 
Negro voter.
Geneva County?
with 227 Negro
war veterans has
Just 21 Negro voters. 
Those who
are good enough
enough to fight
for their country
certainly should be worthy of voting
in their country. Those who have
gone through the fire of battle
should be interested in the fruits of
the ballot.

At their recent Montgomery convention, 
the usually conservative
Alabama (White) Baptist adopted
a resolution, among others, calling
for "registration of all Baptist for
voting and paying poll tax." However, 
this part was deleted in some
of the news stories which reported
the adopted, resolutions. The Alaheaded 
by Dr. D. V. Jemsion, Sr.,

of Selma, Ala., is winding up its annual 
session today in Huntsville
Alabama.

Voting for the citizen is a civic
duty. Good citizenship and good
Christianity go hand in hand. The
ballot is one of the certificates of
citizenship. Voting is one of the
methods by which the individual
participates in his government.
Good government in a democracy
depends upon voting by, good people.

Take for instance the Second
Congressional District where there
Arc 73,487 Negro citizens of voting
ago but only approximately 1,932 for
the nine counties. Apparently no one
has even applied for the ballot in
Lowndes County which has completely 
disfranchised the Negro for
52 long years. Only those can be
held down in a democracy who lack
the will to rise.
Here is the story of Negro voting
in the second congressional:


MY WEEKLY
SERMON
REV. BLAIR T. HUNT,
PASTOR
MISSISSIPPI BLVD. CHRISTIAN
CHURCH, MEMPHIS

This season of the year stirs
within us the spirit of Thanksgiving. 

The harvest season is over. The
crops have been gathered. The
barns are filled with plenty. It is
the human thing to do... pause and
give thanks. It is the divine thing
to do... to pause in the spirit of
Thanksgiving, and "give thanks to
God for His gifts."
Thanks be to God for a million
big things.
Thanks be to God for a multimillion 
little things.
Thanks be to God for life, a
chance to live, to breathe God's
air to walk this earthen sod.
"Thanks be to God for matches," 
said an old woman once in
prayer meeting. She was old enough
to remember the time when such
conveniences were lacking. There
is a long list of forgotten benefits,
such as windowpanes, postage
stamps, et cetera.
Thanks be to God for the telegraph 
and the telephone. When
things grow old and commonplace
they become unnoticed blessings.
Thanks be to God for unnoticed
blessings.
Thanks be to God for the modern
inventions, the radio, the television,
the dish-washer, the frigidaire, et
cetera.
Thanks be to God for the miracle 
drugs, like penicillin, et cetera. 

Thanks be to God for troubles

that have not come to us.
Thanks be to God for the things
we can do without.
Thanks be to God for friends;
even for enemies that keep us ever
alert and make us walk circumspectly. 

Thanks be to God for the liberty
and the freedom of America, bought
at a terrific sacrifice.
Thanks be to God for the privilege 
of being a Negro in America,
feeling and seeing the evils of prejudice... 
thus enabling us to rise to
heights sublime and sympathizing
with and comforting the despised
and rejected.
Thanks be to God for the men
and women who dream great
dreams and work for their fulfillment. 

Thanks be to God for the press
and for freedom of speech.
Thanks be to God for the brotherhood 
of man under the cross of
Jesus Christ.
In everything give thanks... for
all things work together for Good
to those who love God.
First and most, thanks be to God
for His unspeakable gift. When I
think of God's countless material
gifts to His children, I am filled
with awe, amazement, and love. But
when I think of the almighty God
laying under tribute the boundless
resources of His infinite love, wisdom, 
and power to reveal himself
through Jesus Christ for man's salvation 
that we might be redeemed,
I can only cry out, Thanks be to
God for the unspeakable gift.....
Jesus the Christ!!!"
"In everything give thanks."

effort to save three children from
their burning home.
"She could be heard screaming.
Dale Jacobs, owner of a funeral
home, who was called to the scene
said. People tried to hold her back,
but she broke away and ran in after 
the children, who were in bed.
Jacobs said the woman, leaving
her three Email children in bed
yesterday morning, made a fire in
the cook stove and then went to
the home of a relative next door.
"She probably used kerosene in
making the fire and there may have
been an explosion, Jacobs said.
The house burned fast. It was very
dry on the hill and there was no
water for fighting the fire.

selected because ft was on this day
that President Lincoln gave his approval
