ARE STILL DELAYED
Vacation travel and the marketing of the
newly harvested grain crop are adding a
great volume of long distance calls to the
already crowded lines. Because of this
many calls are being delayed.
Although the shortage of materials is
hampering us, we are adding new facilities
as fast as we can get them in order to bring
long distance service back to pre-war qual
ity and even better.
This will take time so when you find
the lines are extra busy, your patience
will be appreciated.

Preserve Rubber
Teach children to care tor their
own rain wear Though you keep a
mat at the door on which to wipe
rubbers and galoshes, if you want
the rubber to last, the best plan is
to remove the mud thoroughly with
a cloth dipped in soapy water Be
sides this prevents dried mud from
crumbling off tn the closet where
they are stored Do your part by
providing basin, soap and cloth, but
teach them to do the job for them
selves
Soap-Soak for Deep Soil
It can't be said too often--the best
way tn remove soil streaks on
seams of underwear and girdles,
and the inside of neckbands and col
lars is to dampen the fabric and rub
soap directly on the soiled places
allowing it to remain awhile before
popping into the tub For especial
ly stubborn soil, gentle rubbing with
a brush is easier on the fabric than
a washboard And, of course, fre
quent washing will prevent soil from
becoming too deeply Imbedded ir

turn legitimate organizations into a battling ground, “
it’s no longer a private affair.
Some Negroes have adopted the rather peculiar psychology that
every white man who makes a loud noise about racial equality, ia
doing it out of the purenesa of his heart and because he wants to see
the brownskin brethren lifted from the depths. From past experience,
I’ve come to have a growing suspicion of the pother raised by soapbox
sound-offs. The noise too often provides a smokescreen for the actual
maneuverings behind the hullabaloo.
One or two of the eager brothers and sisters join an organization,
make with a lot of convincing talk about Llove-you-you-love-me, and

nobody knows who started the fireworks, but start they did. The
corpses lying around are the earthly remains of unwary souls who
never heard of the art of camouflage and were standing in the line
of fire when the shooting started.
I can’t very well do anything about individual members of the
race who are so unacquainted with current political techniques and
trends that they let themselves la* taken in. As I’ve said, a man’s
political preferences are his own business, but when those preferences
start endangering the smooth functioning of organizations supported
by public subscription and funds, it’s time for light to be shed on the
subject.
Plans fora city-wide self-survey on race relations in Minneapolis
were outlined at a luncheon meeting of the Minneapolis Women’s Con
ference of Human Relations at the Woman’s club, 410 Oak Grove,
Tuesday afternoon. Mrs. Lawrence D. Steefel. the sole feminine mem
ber of Mayor Humphrey’s Council on Human Relations, so clearly
and factually told of survey to Iw inaugurated in a few weeks.
She discussed the methods to lie used in setting the survey up,
and in speaking of the minority problems in the Mill City, stated
rather than racial tension, the main one was religious tension—Chria
tan-Jew tension. This may sound not logical to many Negroes who
feel their particular "kettle of fish” presents the worst mess, but to
those who know the deep-seated hold anti-Semitism has established here,
it won’t come as a surprise.
People keep saying anti-Semitism is "subtle,” and I keep saying
t’s subtle because so many Jews themselves refuse to openly admit
they're being discriminated against I discuss this issue with Jewish
friends from time to time, and find that many who want to do some
thing about meeting the thing head on are often handicapped by the
reluctance of others who think publicity will only "give ideas'* to people
who don’t already have them.
As Mrs. Steefel pointed out. a self-survey won't lie of much value
if minority groups themselves aren't willing to be frank about the
problems they face and the embarrassments they suffer.
