Walker of Chilliecote, visited Mr. and Mrs. Chas, Ransom, Sunday.—Mrs. Carl Stubblefield and son, Carl Jr., are visiting relatives in Virginia.—Mrs. Kittle Ransom is ill. The community center debate, the 19th, was quite interesting. The affirmative won. The judges were: C. E. Dickinson, state president, N. A. A. C. P.; Mrs. Goatley and D. C. Morison. The subject: "Resolved that the church should accept card-playing and dancing."—Mr. Haywood of the community center invites all to visit it and take part in its various activities.—All who have not done so should register, so as to be able to vote in November. Go to the board of elections at once.
COLUMBUS.—In compliance, with a resolution adopted at the last session of the State Assembly, Gov. Geo. White has appointed a committee "to consider the subjects of tax and mortgage delinquencies and foreclosures, particularly with reference to homes, farms and small business properties," the members of which are O.

WILBERFORCE. — One of the things that distresses President R. R. Wright most is that many of the University teachers have not been paid in full for their past year's service. He says: "I am urging the public and particularly the church to be liberal in their contributions to Wilberforce in order that this fine set of young men be allowed to attend that their families may not be deprived of results of their labor. I shall insist that the teachers be paid first. That I may better know what it is to go without pay. I have made up my mind to receive no salary during any month in which we are not able to pay all our teachers their full salary. I hope," he continued, "to build up an efficient loyal, consecrated faculty of men and women with enthusiasm for Christian education, and to attend Wilberforce some of the best brains in the United States. I know this cannot be done unless the teachers are paid and paid promptly. That will be fundamental."
ANOTHER BODY FOUND
In the Ohio River — The Murray Trials Expensive to the County —The Battle Still On.
Ironton, O. —The body of another member of the race, age about 37 and about 5½ feet tall, was found in the Ohio river a short distance from here.
The six defendants, accused of taking Luke Murray from the South Point jail (near here) on June 7 and murdering him, and acquitted by a jury here, are on trial for breaking into the jail, etc. The county agencies are concerned because of the money which the trials are costing. A statement of the expense to the county, published in the Ironton Tribune, includes $450 for Atty. A. J. Layne, who defended five of the lynchers. In one case, a lawyer for the prosecution, the fee was paid by outside agencies, and one for the defense was paid by the family of the victim. In addition to this $450, the county had to pay jurors $312 and $169 to witnesses. This totals $931. This does not include the expense of the prosecutor's investigation, the sheriff's expense in bringing in some of the witnesses, serving others with papers and the wear and tear on automobiles, the cost of gas and oil, and $50 for the burial and exhumation of the murdered man.

Dear Friend:—I am hereby congratulating you with my whole heart on your most wonderful consummation of the herculean task of editing
M. B.
and publishing a reputable newspaper, during half a century!
Seventy-five of the 87 years of my life have been spent in this, my present home, and during all these years I have never known any man or woman of any race or class to accomplish such an undertaking, and this, too, during some of the most eventful and trying times of commercial and financial affairs that this great country has ever known.
Wonderful newspapers have been born, reached remarkable circulation, and, with their talented editors, pressed away, but both you and "The Old Reliable" Gazette have remained, and, miracle dictu, are still on the firing line.
It is God's doing. He has preserved and protected you both to struggle and "cry aloud" for the rights of our poor hopefully struggling class.
Yours,
John P. Green

WINS FROM TWO OF THE WORLD'S LEADING DASHMEN, BROCKMEYER AND SALVIATI.
Sixty Thousand People Cheer Themselves Hoarse as a Result of the High-School Lad's Great Feat.
Our athletes just about stole the show, Sunday afternoon, in the Cleveland stadium, which was put on principally by outstanding U. S. and foreign participants in the recent Olympiad at Los Angeles. Jesse Owens, the one-man track team from E. Tech High school, this city, who had been flirting with world records here at home and elsewhere in the state for the last year or two, was the star of the day, giving the vast audience of 60,000 persons the greatest thrill of the afternoon. When the lad flashed across the finish line, there was hardly a person in the stadium who was seated. All were on their feet shouting forth the most vociferous tribute ever bestowed upon an athlete here. The roar of the crowd at Owens' feat was like that which comes from football fans when a player breaks thru the net. He was the star of the day, except that the necclaim which greeted Owens lasted longer. He smiled, received the congratulations of other contestants and trotted away. Local daily newspapers agreed that he "stole the fine show" notwithstanding the exceptional showings of several other U. S. and foreign athletes. In the 100-yard event the 19-year-old high school champion, who won three schoolatic championships, faced two schoolatic championships, of Italy, glazing around the stadium track in 9.65 to triumph by three yards, going away. This would have been great enough on a straight-away, but was truly remarkable considering that Jesse ran on a curved course. In the trial heat, he had romped to victory in 9.8, and after a half hour's rest came back to win. Once he left the post, the issue was never in doubt. His feet seemed scarcely to touch the cinders, and his graceful stride was so beautiful as to cause gausps of amazement from the great crowd into a slender lead in the first 50 yards, after which he apparently made up his mind to "rub it in," increasing his speed and opening wide a gap of three yards between himself and the rushing runner-up, Brockmeyer. Both Brockmeyer and Salviati said afterwards that Owens' feat was almost unbelievable for a high school boy. Thru an interpreter the former asked Jesse to send him a picture of himself, but was second in the broad-jump to Edw. Gordon, our winner of the Olympiad championship for the U. S. and ran in the half mile relay.
Our other winners, Sunday afternoon, were: Phil Edwards of Toronto, a Canadian by birth, who negotiated the mile-run in 4m 32.55. Edwards is the former ace spinner of New York university who married a very pretty German girl of good family just before his graduation, a little over a year ago and went to Toronto, where he played the golf game, who won the 440-yard low hurdles in 53.1s. Edw. Gordon, the broad jump; and a young man by the name of Ward. Distance (broad jump) 23ft. 9¾ in. Beatty was also a member of the U. S. team of four which won the 800-yard relay in 1m 30s. Had Jesse Owlsen been able to participate in the Olympiad, what a quartette of sprinters he, Tolan, Metcalfe and Johnson would have made. The local chain-grocery store that broths and dips was here for Sunday afternoon's free show at the stadium, also presented medals to the winners of each event.
Olympiad Prejudice.
That the Tolan and Metcalfe victories in the 100-meter race and Tolan's victory also in the 200-meter race in the recent Olympic contests at Los Angeles peeved some of the managers was shown in their mistreatment of our two girl-sprinters. Reliable" Gazette. There is no chance for me to forget when my subscriptions is due as that is my anniversary and I always pay for The Union and The Gazette at the same time and on my anniversary. That makes it easy to remember. I have followed this plan in the last few years and I want it is a gift. I want to magnificate you on the 50th anniversary of "The Old Reliable," hoping you will live many more years to publish it. As I have often said, the race will never realize your worth until you have passed to the great beyond. But I believe in giving flowers while one is alive and can appreciate them. And I consider you one of our greatest friends. I close with kindest regards from
Your old friend,
Charlie Hunt.

MEYER AND SALVIATI.
Cheer Themselves Hoarse as
School Lad's Great Feat.
Miss Louise Stokes of Malden, Mass. and Miss Tidy Picket of Chicago, and also James Johnson of Illinois State Normal school, all of whom were unfairly shunted out of races. The first two were unfairly kept out of the 400-meter girls' relay race and Johnson out of the 400-meter men's relay-team race.
**Tolan and Metcalfe "Buddies."**
Los Angeles.—Ralph Metcalfe and Eddie Tolan, the two Afro-Americans who won the Olympic sprint supremacy for this country, were great comrades at the games. During the trial heats they aided each other in digging starting stirs, and shouted engagement to each other. And when they opposed in the finals, they clapped hands after the conclusion of the race. In the case of the disputed 100-meter championship, neither was certain as to who was the winner, so it was a case of mutual felicitation.
When the very big Mr. Metcalfe was engaged in running the first of the 200 meters to set a momentarily new Olympic trials record, the short and squat Mr. Tolan was beside him lending spiritual and physical assistance.
And when Metcalfe got thru running, he was right over on the opposite side of the field lending the same spiritual and physical sustenance to the bespectacled Tolan. Not alone a message of reassurance, but of help in digging out the starting holes.
Never there was a second of comparison among these two boys displayed. Last week Thursday evening, at Soldiers' Field in Chicago, an Afro-American 440-yard relay team, composed of John Brooks, Eugene Beatty, Eddie Tolan and Ralph Metcalfe, easily defeated an Italian team in 42 seconds flat. They led by about nine yards at the finish. The daily papers of the country, in referring to this victory, for an obvious reason, were careful to refer to our boys as "Americans." Did you notice it? They rarely ever do this.
Metcalfe On All-American Track- Team.
Los Angeles, Calif.—Without a dissenting vote, Ralph Metcalfe of Marquette University was chosen, in the 100 and 200-yard dashes, for the All-American track and field team. This is the first time that one of our sprinters has been named for both positions. Metcalfe was the only athlete picked by unanimous choice. Eddie Tolan was not eligible because he was out of school. In exhibition races, at the international police field meet in Detroit, Saturday, Metcalfe ran 100 meters in 10.4 seconds, and in the 200-meter event equaled Eddie Tolan's Olympic time of 21.2. Eddie is under contract and could not run in these races.
The Famous Joe Walcott Passes.
New York City—Joe Walcott,
holder of the world's welterweight
championship 30 years ago, died in
Bellevue Hospital, Sunday night.
Veteran boxing experts rate Walcott as
the greatest fighter of his weight the
ring ever knew. Only a "heavy"
lightweight, Walcott earned his sobriquet,
"Giant Killer," by the easy manner in which he topped light
heavyweights and heavyweights. One of his greatest fights was with Joe Choynski, who a short time before,
had given Jim Corbett a terrific 28-
round victory. Choynski outweighed
Walcott, 173 pounds to 143, with a
5 to 1 favorite in the betting.
But the "Barbados demon" floored Choynski several times in the first round and gave him such a terrific beating that the referee was forced to stop the fight in the seventh round.
ABBOTT ANSWERS WIFF.
Says He Does Not Own "The Chicago Defender"—The Paper Lost $40,000, Last Year, Etc.
Chicago, Ill.—In answering his wife's petition for a divorce, etc., Robert S. Abbott, reputed owner of "The Chicago Defender", declares that the Robert S. Abbott Pub. Co. has been and is operating the paper at a considerable loss; that the loss last year amounted to approximately $40,000, and that the loss of business year will be considerably more. He asks that he possesses the wealth attributed to him, or anything like it" that the R. S. A. Pub. Co. is a corporation, the stock of which is held by trustees under a trust created by him for the benefit of his wife, himself and others; that at present he has little or no income and that for the past two years he has not drawn any salary from the company.

The Women's Civic organization met at Mrs. B. Johnson's, Tuesday, and changed its name to the Louise Pridigeon Civic club, honoring its late president. Election of officers resulted as follows: Mrs. Ethel Simone, pres.; Mrs. Johnson, vice-pres.; Mrs. Samuel Jones, sec.; Mrs. W. Lanier, assist, and Mrs. Pauline Crump, treas. The club gave a picnic, last Tuesday, at Garfield park for woodland, Casewoodland, Mayflower and Glades schools and the Friendly Inn. Refreshments served.

Judge Dan B. Cull of the city Civil Service Commission has cited Geo. C. Lacey, Democratic leader of the 17th ward, to appear before the commission; Monday, on the charge that city employees in that ward are assessed a percentage of their salaries to defray party expenses; that Lacey is in charge of collecting 500 pieces every two weeks from approximately 65 members of the ward club. This, he said, he was doing with the knowledge and authority of W. B. Gongwer, local Democratic boss, and added that the same practice was being conducted in the 16th and 17th wards. The Institute of the 17th ward Democratic club provides that all of its members, city employees, donate 2 per cent of their salary, or pay, to the treasury of the club. This, however, is in direct conflict with section 139 of the city charter which provides that "no person in the administrative service of the city shall

We colored Americans' worst present blunder is use of the word, Negro, as a race name. It is useful, in imbibing the minds of white people with the fool idea that we are not Americans, and not fully human beings. — Editor Wm. Monroe Trotter in the Boston Guardian.
What would cause other people to gnash their teeth and gird their loins is question of debate for us. Kick us, beat us, pile depredations upon us, revile us, abuse us, lie about us, malign us and even impugn our valor and we are not unanimously insulted. It seems impossible to establish unanimity of insult in the black race.—Chicago (Ill.) Whip.

Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor, Gazette.
Dear Friend: I have read
the latest copy of The Gazette
through and after reading it,
I can truthfully say: It is worth
its weight in gold!
I admire true manhood—a
man who, seeing injustice and
oppression, dares, within the
limits of the law, to expose it
and, if possible, smite it. You
and I have frequently, during
the fifty years since the birth
of The Gazette, been, as the
Scotch would say, like two McNells, but, when I find a man,
such as you, who consistently,
and persistently, thru half a
century, puts his race against
his own, I take off
my hat to him, as being a true
friend of our class. Long life
to you and "The Old Reliable"

ONDON'S latest bridge inspired
I song hit might be “Waterloo
Bridge Is Failing Down.” The
“falling,” however, is not acct
dental, it is an enzineering job. The
bridge will be replaced by a new span.
Many travelers now are seeing Lon-
don from a bus top, where they enjoy
watching perky messenger boys with
their tincan hats cocked on three
hairs, the huge policemen, the sand
wich men, and the clattering crowds
‘of men and women on the streets.
In a private car the least snobbish
feels himself aloof and superior. On
a personally conducted tour one {s
only the pea tossed in the dishpan of
a careless conductor’s rhetoric. In a
taxieab even the very reckless ean-
not refrain from watching the meter.
But from a bus top one looks down,
part and parcel of all he sees, under-
standing and being thrilled by a thow-
sand activities.
It is true that one sees the cen
turies without order or sequence; but
that 18 as ft should be in London,
where today, tomorow, and 1,800
years elbow each other companion
ably.
Perhaps one leans over the rail tc
see a lordiing sprawled at the whee!
of a great car, all color and silver, ob
that Watling street which was one of
the four thoroughfares by the aid ef
which the Romans held Britain; or
to watch those who are to fly to Paris,
stepping into the car that is to carry
them to the flying field at Croydon,
Next, the bus passes a porter's
lodge in which a duchess lives at the
gates of the great house she can no
longer afford to occupy. Or the brass
triangle near the Marble arch, which
marks the site of Tyburn tree, a com-
mon gallows away back in 1196. Or
that street of pallid houses built by
a French architect that Napoleon's of.
ficers might have fitting quarters
when he had conquered England. Or
the horse guards, where massive sen-
tinels in scarlet and buckskin and sil-
ver bestride horses of black silk. One
marvels at the horses more than at
the men. However do they train them
to stand so still?
Reminders of the Past.
Yonder is Lansdowne passage, lead:
ing from Plecadilly into Curzon street.
‘The street is the citadel of the high-
est fashion, lined with gloomy houses.
A steel bar is still set across the
passage, that no highwayman may gal-
lop his horse through it to safety in
the fields, as one formed the repre
hensible habit of doing a hundred
years ago.
Nearby is the Shepherd's market
which is in its essentials what a shop.
ping district was in London in Dick
‘Turpin's time, and a little public house
whose customers are almost wholly
the Jeames Yellowplushes of today.
wealth of gossip about their masters
might be gathered there by one ad
mitted to their intimacy.
Of Whitehall one may see the win:
dow through which a king walked on
his way to the block. Over the rail
of Hyde park one may glimpse the lit:
tle gravestones of the dogs’ cemetery ;
then hurriedly glance at the new Devon-
shize house, wherein apartments may
be leased for 909 years at an incredible
number of pounds the year.
‘rafalgar square is the natural
center of London for the adventurer.
It is true that Charing Cross, a long
stone's throw down the Strand, is ac-
cepted as the geographical center, if
there can be a geographical center of
& map, which is messed about as is
that of London by the oxbow-bend of
the River Thames.
‘At any rate, the 699 square miles of
the greater city include aM parishes
any part of which may be within 12
miles of the cross, or of which the
whole may be within 15 miles.
Going From Nelson’s Column.
But Nelson’s column, in Trafalgar
square is the North pole to the visi
tor’s compass. If he were able to
‘mount to Nelson's eminence. as stee-
plejacks sometimes do, and there re
‘yolve upon his heel, he would discover
that each quarter turn would reveal
a new aspect. ‘
Down Whitehall is the ancient City
of Westminster, with the houses of
parliament and the abbey. The Strand
‘opens to Fleet street and the offices
of the great newspapers.
‘Over Covent garden, a bit more to
the left, one might sight the Bank of
England and the heart of the old Ro-
man city. Another turn left and the
markets, the Charterhouse, the British
museum.
‘Left once more and the theater dis:
trict; Soho, where are the foreign res-
taurants beloved of novelists, and the
fashionable shopping districts. Just a
bit more and clubland and Mayfair
and a glance at Buckingham palace.
‘Then Hyde park and the Admiralty,
and the circle is complete. All reached
best by busses.
‘Trafalgar square is a place of peri
ous delights. Eight streets debouch
upon it, each filled with roaring tratlic
coming’ from unexpected antes, and
made more perilous to an American
by. the ‘English insistence upon the
left-hand turn,
‘One leaps from safety iskand to safe
ty island across these streets, as if
théy were stepping stones in a torrent
—omnibuses, steam lorries, donisey
carts, limousines, the small, barn
swallowlike cars which taxation has
thrust upon English motordom, brew
ers’ vans drawn by elephantine horses,
Sereaming motorcycles with the latest
editions.
‘Once ‘Trafalzar square was the kins’
mews, where various monarchs stabled
their horses, Honest artisans shaped
Weapons for English gamecocks in
Cockspur street. Fronting on the
square is the national gallery.
¢rammed with treasures of art, Of
all the 1,00-odd churehes in London,
the visitor is apt to carry away the
most vivid memory of St, Martin's.in-
theFields. ‘The gray and white and
black pillars of its majestic portico
gain added value, of course, when seen
across the open square.
In a little house which once stood
he¥e, Ben Johnson wrote “Drink to Me
Only with Thine Byes,” which some
people hold to be one of the finest
dallads in-the English language, though
deprecating the sentiment... Heine and
Ben’ Franklin and Charles Dickens
have roomed close by.
The Mall and Buckingham Palace.
From ‘Trafalgar, too, the visitor ear
peer through the fine Admiralty arch
down the Mall, at the farther end of
Which stands’ Buckingham palace.
Eventually he will discover this to be
@ large and almost violently uzly
stone-fronted building behind a tall
wrought-iron fence, and that time is
wasted on it except during those stir
ring moments when the soldier guard
is changed.
He may recall that it was down the
Mall that Charles I walked to the
headman's block, and that it was
named after the French game of paille
maille that Charles II played upon it.
‘Across the square is the statue of
Charles 1, perhaps the Gest equestri
an figure in London. One bridges cen.
turies of English history by a glance
at it. Queen Eleanor's cross first
stood upon this site, the twelfth—or
was it the thirteenth?—cross erected
by the sorrowing King Edward I to
mark the places where her casket was
set down for the night on the long
route from Lincoln to her tomb in
Westminster. That was in the Thir-
teenth century.
Much is to be seen hereabouts in
the compass’ of a short walk before
definitely embarking on a eruise
through London's streets, A turn to
the left leads to Maiden lane, where
Voltaire and Turner once lived. One
may pause at Rule’s oyster house for
‘a snack, not because of hunger, but
because this has been the resort of
English actors since 1750. Fielding
and Pope and Goldsmith used to fre-
quent it when it was “The Bedford
Head” and the home of the Reunion
club. A vast white-painted door, set
with brass like the quarter-deck of a
yacht, 2 populous bar behind which
two lively maids are busy, a great fire
under a marble mantelpiece.
Lively Covent Garden.
Just around the corner is Covent
garden, once the convent garden of
the abbey of Westminster. It has
been the great market for fruits and
vegetables ever since 1634. A lively,
sad, industrious place, in which the
coster's donkeys furnish the comle re
lief. Under the great piazza, which
was a century ago London's most fash.
fonable walk, old women sit all sum
mer long shelling peas. Something of
‘a comedown from the patches and ruf-
fles, and the small swords and the
snuff.
It is to be feared the Covent garden
opera has somewhat declined. At all
events, when one visits the fine old
house two jazz bands may be heard
offering interminable tom-tomming for
‘a horde of dancers.
Here is Bow street and its police
station, where the “scarlet waistcoats
‘of the “Bow street runners” gave the
world its idea of a uniformed police
foree—or so Bow street sass. On the
Russell street corner is Will's coffee
house, where Dryden sat in Judgment
on plays, and which is just as it used
to be, above the street level. Charles
Lamb lodged at No. 20 Russell street
‘and the National’ Sporting club, most
aristocratic of boxing clubs, Is at $3
King street. At No. 4 York street De
Quincey wrote his “Confessions.”
Half the charm of London is in its
history.

REDS: THIS YEAR’S
FAVORITE COLORS
Reds that are bright and light are
this year's most successful clothes
colors.
Scarlet seems to be the favorite
right now. Yellowish reds appear in
bathing suits and evening clothes,
mostly. ‘The reds used for sports
clothes and daytime dresses and sults
fare usually darker, and less elemen-
tary. Wine reds and brownish reds
are beginning to appear In daytime
lothes, and are listed at the top of
forecasted colors for fall.
Ted-with-color as a fashion scheme
takes many new forms this year
Along the Riviera there are many ex-
amples of the type of color combining
that Paris favors right now—two var
ations of the’ same color used togeth-
or as if they were two different colors.
‘Thus orangy red will serve as trim:
ming, via a scarf, on a dress. of
maroon; geranium red Is combined
with scarlet; purplish and reddish
reds are worn together.
‘There ts, of enurse, more red and
white than'any other combination.
Rainbow Eyelashes Are
Latest Extravagance
Artificial silk eyelashes of rainbow
hue, marvelously uttached to the real
lashes, are Paris’ latest fashion extray-
agance. Blue, red and green lashes
are “worn” with lids of silver or gold
and the lips must be colored to mateh
the gown,
“Powder cocktails,” the shades com-
bined to make a mixture appropriate
to madame’s mood—green for Jeal-
ousy, purple for passion—are another
vogue.
‘AS to lipsticks, there is no end to
the variety of colors In these. Pale
yellow, to be used with a green face
powder, is favored by one expert.
Boucle and Lisles
Suite of boucle and lacy lisles are
much worn at the smart resorts espe-

are featured by the most important

OUR FIFTIETH YEAR.
As stated In our issue of Aug. Te.

The Gazette entered upon its fittieth
year of continuous publication, every
week on time, ‘This paper made its

IN AN EXCEPTIONALLY ABLE ADDRESS ON
“SOCIAL UNREST AND THE LAW”.
Education a Fundamental—Most Distressed and Most
Patient—Social Improyement—Walter
Hamilton and the “Hoover Dam.”
Indianapolis, Ind.—A discontented
Afro-American, scuffing for his
rights and development, was _pic-
tured as the chief hope of the race's
future in, this country by Atty, C.
Francis ‘Stradford before delegates
to the elzhth annual convention of
ihe National Bar Association, held
here, recently. Mr. Stradford, a for-
mner’ president of the Association,
Spoke on the subject, “Social Un-
rest and the Law.”
“our aim is to create in_ this
country,”" ho stated, “a discontented,
a dissatisfied AfrocAmerican, a dis:
pleased man of color. Not’ a man
Ulscontented and displeased in. the
sense of beng merely a sorehead,
jut. one intelligently opposed to
wrong and willing (o fight incessant.
Ty and to make. sacrifices, if) you
please, to abolish every form. of pro-
Scription, sexregation, discriminatio
and injustice.”
He held up as an example of this
desirable type of citizens, a Nevada
laborer, Walter’ Hamilton,
| “Rew people have ever heard of
Walter Hamilton, who ted the fight
made by colored ‘eitizens of Las Ve-
gas, Nev., to seeure employment for
his people at Hoover Dam,” asserted
Mr, Stradford. “He was ridiculed
at frst even by members of his own
group and referred to as an ax
tator, fanatic, red or radical, but
‘through his’ intelligence, courage,
‘persistence and abiding faith in the
ultimate triumph of justice, he final-
ly won-his fight and the ‘unstinted
praise and commendation of both
the colored and white people of Las
Vegas. Colored men are now work-
‘ing on the Hoover Dam.”
In opening his address Mr. Strad-
ford depicted social unrest in the
United States and other sections of
the world at the present time. He
also pointed to the past and recalled
the creation of laws in Greece and
Rome and England in response to
new social and economic phenomena.
Frequent reference was made to
labor laws, which came to meet the
problems of the new industrial era.
He described the fight of labor for a
place in the sun as a kind of “in-
telligent discontent” and presented
jciation. There is, however, one
“ihing we wotid ask’ of all our read

as an illustration of the growing
consciousness in the labor field. the
Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Port-
ers. Mr. Stradford recommended con-
tinued education as the source of in-
telligent discontent, among both
whites and blacks.
“In this period of depression and
unrest,” he explained, ‘The Afro-
American, the most distressed of all,
the hardest hit of all, has shown
most patience and least discontent.
This, however, is in strict keeping
with the basi¢ laws of social psy-
chology, because discontent increases
with social improvement. Those who
have most, want most, and those
who have ‘least want least. I am
convinced the Afro-American must
become more restive. In order to
make progress, he must show this
Intelligent discontent. If, as some
one has said, knowledge is the sur-
est basis of happiness, it is that type
of knowledge which breeds the most
discontent with social wrongs and
injustice. Indeed, that should be
the fundamental aim of all educa-
tion whether formal or adult and
obviously the whites must be edu-
cated along with the blacks. No
other course will result in the de-
‘velopment of a sound and whole-
‘some public opinion upon which de-
pends the Vigorous and impartial en-
forcement of the law.”
