...Black runners collect numbers for white bankers, and black pushers sell dope for white gangsters. Black nationalists preach "buy black," then get drunk on whisky from a white man's store. Black preachers damn Jewish shopkeepers for overcharging black customers, then milk the blacks dry over the collection plate. Black Communists weep over the Negro...
Classic Confrontation. This year's walkout was staged by two unions: the pressmen, who have taken a bellwether role in six of the nine strikes, and the paper and plate handlers' union, whose members do such unskilled work as hauling paper rolls and printing plates from one shop location to another.

Dr. Taplin proved in dogs that these macro-molecules would jam up in the clot-closed arteries, stay there long enough to take their own picture on an X-ray plate, then break up into the normal, small-molecule form of albumin and pass into the bloodstream...
