The “Big Three” of Negro leader
ship this week told Secretary of the
Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr.,
that Negroea intend to support the
Sixth War Loan Campaign “not
just because it is patriotic, but be-
caune it in a sound inventment in
the future ”
The joint letter to the Secretary
was signed by Mrs. Mary Melted
Bethune, president, National Coun-
| cil of Negro Women; Walter White,
executive secretary, National Asso-
' nation for the Advancement of
| Colored People; and Lester B.
| Granger, executive secretary, Na
tional Urban league.
The current bond drive opened
November 20th and will continue
through December 16th.
The three oustanding leaders in
formed the Secretary that “Ne
groes are in this war as much as
any other American,” and that they
too “yearn to see their loved ones
return home as quickly as possible,
and are bending every effort to
hasten that day.”
Setting forth their pledge of per
sonal support, the letter said that
they intend to “implore those for
whom we profess to speak not to
relax their efforts, either in work
or in investment in war bonds. We
know we shall continue to say,”
the letter adds, “that the link be
tween the battlefront and the home
front is a bridge of war bonds the
purchase of which is essential to
supply adequately the men who are
carrying the fight to the enemy.”

So that customers may readily
learn the maximum prices which
retail dry cleaning and pressing es
tablishments may charge for the
more important services, all such
firms will be required by January

ers their maximum prices for 12
main services, Hosea Evans, dis
trict OPA price executive, announc
ed today.
The posters, which will bo made
available by local OPA boards at a
later date to be announced, call for
four ceilings on each of the twelve
listed services, Evans explained.
For men’s w’ear, there are four
items: suits, two or three piece;
trousers; heavyweight overcoats,
and lightweight overcoats.
For women’s wear, there are
eight items: suits, two-piece; plain
dresses, plain blouses; jackets;
plain skirts; sweaters; heavyweight
coats; anil lightweight ^.oats.
In addition, cleaning establish
ments will still be required to file
at the local OPA boards and have
on their premises copies of their
ceiling prices, representing highest
prices charged in March 1942,
Evans pointed out.
