This article presents news briefs related to various socio-political issues in the U.S. Political leader Eddie Rickenbacker is said to be stunned by the hostile reception labor has given his speeches, and his advisers are worried lest it hurt his standing as a hero. The American Tobacco Co., after protests by the "Amsterdam Star-News," a New York Negro newspaper, has agreed to stop calling one of its brands "Nigger Head." At Brotherhood Week services in Christ Church Episcopal Cathedral in Saint Louis, Missouri recently, whites and Negroes sat unsegregated. No one was visibly perturbed by the arrangement.
