DISPEL THE DARKNESS: By Ruth Taylor "We are living in the dawn <>1 ' main in ti?rkn??<* " : This, sentence from?the Fi. c Freedoms statement of the Negroes expresses what must W e wanted by lind for all people. There is no color line between Negro and White in ideals or gouls. We cunnot remain in dark ) ' tleftk lllil' hilltil the woTTd gulTimr"' ward oace the war is won by the United Nations. Times have thane . cd for all of us, and all the pen.- L pie of all the earth must live as free men in the light. There is no darkness but ig-" noiunce. I read once that those who live on the mountains have a longer day than those who l?Ye i F. ; in the valley. Sometimes all we need to brighten our day is to raise oursehes a little higher. K , ' > This is a truism which can be put into effect for all of us. For lIak is the way 'we must climb out ox. the darkness. We .cannot wait for someone to dispel it fox us, for light thut can be tinned on'and otf is nevev permanent light. Everything we learn,V everything we do right, helps to destroy tne darkness tor all time. We can demand opportunities loi which we are prepared, t'ur nmri successfully than we can when we are not yet ready lor them, it i is really just the same as it is y~.?3 with jobs?-you know how much easier it is to get a jolr-when yoi uueady have one. Only* through education can we go ahead. This does not mean just technical education, important though it is. It means education of the snirit as well a? ef mind. We will reach the heights of light, not through clinging to old antagonisms and hatreds, not by piessure or legislation, but by working together with our fellowrneu ii sympathy?tutd ttv under- stanndii *, stand'iig up for what is right and doing as we would be The one real hope for the future a luture of light- und growth and progivss,?is a recognition of out common humanity, of our com L:,, nion stnggle to rise above oui old selvVs, ol the common ideal ML of al| men of good will. Trtie wi I ML will find obstacles, but under Kk; , standing and bard work will ge over them. And we will t-liim *t last to the height vvneie then | ^Rptrac darfcass*. j MEANTS V COMMENTS Hy \Yilliant McKinlev Hnn man M KAN IS Kvcry v. he;-w-l?yo 1 aui iiL.vi, .with ovV'i ilowdoil coiiiiniTisiS: It iefgnsO areas there art- ho--jam hortayes, apai t meats ami e^eu .ooths ati* tint it) if haii at a premium.
