NOTE HOOK S'l I FE Referring to the census of l'.i3C we find that more than 5,000,(K)0 Negroes in the- United States are gainfully occupied. The largest number, 36.1 per cent are employ ed in agriculture, while the second largest group, 286 per cent workin domestic and personal set v ice. Other occupations in which we . - find colored Americans are: man uraeturing and mecnanicai industries 1S.: transportation and communication 7.2; trade 3.3; pro " fessional service 2.5; mining 1.4; public service'.9; clerical occupations .7; forestry and fishing .6. In 1930 the total number of farms operated by Negroes in the United States were 882,850 farmers. Of the&e_132*li4 under full owners. The 1940 census will reveal in creases in these occupations. The Negro farmer is a great factor in our econpmic structure and the more we develop agriculture among Negro land owners the more certain is the economic security of our people. , THE CIVIC LEAGUE CAN DO IT The Columbia Civic League is an organization with a future, and accordingly can do many thihgs~fof the economic security of Columbia Negroes. We notice that many of the big concerns in the city furnish jobs for Negro people, and the number seems to be increasing?speaking without having made an intelligent survey; speaking from observation we believe?more Negroes are employed in our various -business concerns now than formerly. We refer here to portersT BHccpers, eievator managers, maids7*> and hotel workers. This is the line of work most of out people are eminently prepared~tfr do, regardless of the contention that we stand in large numbers as mechanics, and tradesmen of all classes. The man with a job is more ofi a community factor than if unemployed. The Civic League can render o fine service if a few of the leaders would use contact methods in appraising these facts with the v* executives of Columbia businessfirms, and urging increased jobs for Negroes as the growth of business warrant. This, we think the leaders of the League 'have as definite part of their program. There are other things to be done for Negro welfare ir? Columbia that are equally^important and that might be done, if jurgpd hv! " our leaders. And, finally, wouldn't it help sonrft tf We Trad a dozen first class stalls conducted by Negro people? There are many things .he Civic League can do. Let's support the League. WHAT IS THE REAL ISSl'E? By Ruth Taylor "It isn't our wp.r." "Why fight for an undemocratic democracy ?" "Get a square deaf FIRST?-then talk of helping." These phrases beat upon the' heart an<|' }>r?in I constantly. These enemy slogans are clever, for they sound-log+eHl? except for one all important thing The alb-out struggle to maintain n democratic way of life is NOT a struggle in which we are asked to HELP anyone ELSE get what HE wantjr_Jfjwe face the wra-?- gMt > v*V?'"~y"T- MAYBE SO AN! (By W. H. SI OUTSIDE A Well, to begin with, what AM I talking about? I'm just gabbing , about that which, appears to be safe and sound when you look at it, bi^ which is the opposite when vcvu pry into it.

Speaking of a friend a man said to me: "He married her, and ever - "-Hftee -he fits hnthfTOtbing ^bntntotT^ ' tor bills to pay, and she's fine 'ooking, too, right now." That sister was apparently safe and sound mtside, but faulty on the inside. Some states require health cerificates before issuing marriage icetises.
