(L..>. 1 VOL. 23—No. 47 NORTH CANTON, OHIO, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1947 $2.00 A YEAB New Ii C, Memorial Stadium to Be Host for Regional Playoff Sept. 5-6-7 The Right Way On July 18th the Miami (Florida) Herald began an editorial in this way, "Group B, RH negative is a rare type of blood. One person among 100 Whites, has ,it, only one among 2^0 iSTegroes." -Behind that paragraph was a story of suffering, danger, and rescue. For in Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital a Negro woman lay ill, awaiting an operation which oould not be perf ormed until she had been strengthened by blood transfusions. It was a rare type of blood' that was required—"a type, of blood so rare" that as the newspaper put it, there was "no hope'bf obtaining enough for her needs from donors of her" own race." The Dade County blood bank had already ijjven. the only pint of that type of blood it had. It was not eriotighJ . --As-a last resort a call went out for volunteer blood donors. Within three hours twenty White people had answered, ;it. Seven of them qualified. Seven of them had the type of blood the Negro patient needed desperately for her chance at life. It was enough Some will see in this story evidence that White-Negro relations are improving.,Some will cite it as an example of the way in which people of every community ought to regard teach other's welfare. The Miami Herald was impressed to the point of remarking, "Not the least part of the story is the fact that twenty volunteers are White people. The patient is a Negro woman." It continued, "What a contrast we have here with the sordid story the other day from Ahoskie, North Carolina when a luncheon club there sought to swindle a poor Negro out of a car he had won in a raffle. Every Southerner of character blushed with shame at that exhibition of. moronic prejudice." .. But there ^^W^^SgOS^^^^&hxs story- Referring-to the blood ^a^'^^^^_mmSB___ms the blood from White -and Ne-gro-dOlip^^^^^^^pp^rbloa- bank director- of Dade County, s^^^pp^lt^tfie'*Herald that "there is no reason for such' segregation other than the prejudice of some persons who obtain blood." JfcThat prejudice must disappear before the facts—the scientific fact that there are four types of blood which may be found among all the races of mankind*—the same blood in the White donors as in the Negro patient in the hospital. One blood. The religious fact, stated by St. Paul in Acts 17:26, that God "hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all ihe face of the earth." One blood. , Religious, moral, and scientific truth are one in teaching us how wrong racial and religious prejudice is—how right, how eternally right, is charity and justice among men of every race, religion, and national origin. 4-H'ers To Exhibit At Greensburg Fair Clarance J.

New Federal Security Administrator Takes Oath Labor Day 1947 Labor day is a typically American institution, bearing no resemblance to the "labor days" observed in Europe. It is not a."class" day, drawing distinctions between a.downtrodden "lower class" and a thin uppercrust of leisured and privileged individuals. It is, instead, a day when the nation as a whole does honor to those who labor. And that includes virtually every one of us, regardless of class, creed or color. This country was founded on the theory that a nation could be welded out of materials from all over the world. The elder nations owed their origin to grouping of various peoples of the same stock or tongue for protective purposes, or to wars of conquest, where a dominant group seized power and -ffcimilated or overlorded minority factions. Not so America. For the most part this nation was founded on hard work. .For it took Labor of all kinds to carve a nation out of virgin wilderness, to make roads through trackless forests, to cross mighty rivers, to find passes through the snow crowned mountain heights and to subjugate a continent. It was Labor that cleared lands, and built townships, clustering around those forerunners of civilized life, the church and the schoolhouse. Our aristocracy has always been made up from those whose work was good, and who by their labor of body and mind made easier and better the paths of those who followed. Our soorn has always been for the idler, for the man who took advantage of what others had done, without contributing either of hand or brain to the common welfare. The men and women whom we have chosen to honor have been those —no matter from what group they came—who have worked hard and done most for the common good. For this reason Labor Day is not a day apart for any one group but a day which all may celebrate. We have learned that only those,things which are earned are enduring,-that there is a task for each and' every one of us. Mrs. W. H. Deuhle Buried Tuesday Funeral services for Mrs. Clara M.

The manufacturing centers exchange their products for the products of the agricultural regions, and there is very, little obstacle except that of distance to hamper such trade. The result is that all parts of the country obtain a market for their pr6ducts. -Now if ^Europe-- or many European nations, would merge in a sort of economic federation; one would-think they could get along with a good deal less help from outside. The .manufacturing countries*-would exchange theiripro'ducts with the agricultural nations, and all these producers- would obtain a "Market for th-eir goods.

One person among 100 Whites, has ,it, only one among 2^0 iSTegroes." -Behind that paragraph was a story of suffering, danger, and rescue. For in Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital a Negro woman lay ill, awaiting an operation which oould not be perf ormed until she had been strengthened by blood transfusions. It was a rare type of blood' that was required—"a type, of blood so rare" that as the newspaper put it, there was "no hope'bf obtaining enough for her needs from donors of her" own race." The Dade County blood bank had already ijjven. the only pint of that type of blood it had. It was not eriotighJ . --As-a last resort a call went out for volunteer blood donors. Within three hours twenty White people had answered, ;it. Seven of them qualified. Seven of them had the type of blood the Negro patient needed desperately for her chance at life. It was enough Some will see in this story evidence that White-Negro relations are improving.,Some will cite it as an example of the way in which people of every community ought to regard teach other's welfare. The Miami Herald was impressed to the point of remarking, "Not the least part of the story is the fact that twenty volunteers are White people. The patient is a Negro woman." It continued, "What a contrast we have here with the sordid story the other day from Ahoskie, North Carolina when a luncheon club there sought to swindle a poor Negro out of a car he had won in a raffle. Every Southerner of character blushed with shame at that exhibition of. moronic prejudice." ..

JfcThat prejudice must disappear before the facts—the scientific fact that there are four types of blood which may be found among all the races of mankind*—the same blood in the White donors as in the Negro patient in the hospital. One blood. The religious fact, stated by St. Paul in Acts 17:26, that God "hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all ihe face of the earth." One blood. , Religious, moral, and scientific truth are one in teaching us how wrong racial and religious prejudice is—how right, how eternally right, is charity and justice among men of every race, religion, and national origin. 4-H'ers To Exhibit At Greensburg Fair Clarance J.

New Federal Security Administrator Takes Oath Labor Day 1947 Labor day is a typically American institution, bearing no resemblance to the "labor days" observed in Europe. It is not a."class" day, drawing distinctions between a.downtrodden "lower class" and a thin uppercrust of leisured and privileged individuals. It is, instead, a day when the nation as a whole does honor to those who labor. And that includes virtually every one of us, regardless of class, creed or color. This country was founded on the theory that a nation could be welded out of materials from all over the world. The elder nations owed their origin to grouping of various peoples of the same stock or tongue for protective purposes, or to wars of conquest, where a dominant group seized power and -ffcimilated or overlorded minority factions. Not so America. For the most part this nation was founded on hard work. .For it took Labor of all kinds to carve a nation out of virgin wilderness, to make roads through trackless forests, to cross mighty rivers, to find passes through the snow crowned mountain heights and to subjugate a continent. It was Labor that cleared lands, and built townships, clustering around those forerunners of civilized life, the church and the schoolhouse. Our aristocracy has always been made up from those whose work was good, and who by their labor of body and mind made easier and better the paths of those who followed. Our soorn has always been for the idler, for the man who took advantage of what others had done, without contributing either of hand or brain to the common welfare. The men and women whom we have chosen to honor have been those —no matter from what group they came—who have worked hard and done most for the common good. For this reason Labor Day is not a day apart for any one group but a day which all may celebrate. We have learned that only those,things which are earned are enduring,-that there is a task for each and' every one of us. Mrs. W. H. Deuhle Buried Tuesday Funeral services for Mrs. Clara M.

The manufacturing centers exchange their products for the products of the agricultural regions, and there is very, little obstacle except that of distance to hamper such trade. The result is that all parts of the country obtain a market for their pr6ducts. -Now if ^Europe-- or many European nations, would merge in a sort of economic federation; one would-think they could get along with a good deal less help from outside.
