...Fare Short. Gilbert was born in 1906 on a little farm near Ethel, Mo., and even the town fits the pattern-its population was close to 300 then, is now about 250. When he was eight he started working on his father's horse-drawn delivery wagon. After he finished high school in 1925, he got a job with an Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe signal gang, working along the tracks from Missouri to Chicago. Earning $22.56 a week, pretty good money in the mid-1920s, he married his longtime sweetheart. Bent on settling in Chicago, he went...

In Macon, Ga., last year, Negroes discontinued riding buses to protest segregated seating, came back only after the bus company, suffering a 50% fare loss, capitulated. Charleston, S.C., Negroes won 16 clerks' jobs by selective buying, tightened their boycott with weekly "name the traitor" meetings at which line breakers were singled out. Negro women in Jackson, Miss., last week launched a "Don't Buy on Capitol Street" campaign, stationed pickets outside...
