MINISTER --- GAY PUBLIC LIBRARY 5TH AVE JEFFERSON Flood Traps 350 Goldsboro, N. C. — Floods which have caused great loss in property and much misery throughout the state are hitting many colored persons hard. One of the severest blows has been felt here.

Newspaper Is Again First With the Latest in the Government Probe Indicating the interest being manifested in a Federal grand jury investigation into conditions in Lake county, more than 2,000 extra copies of The Gary American, were sold last week by boys on the streets, in addition to the regular number distributed by The American. Reason for the demand for the paper is seen in the fact that The American was the first newspaper in Lake county to carry a story on the arrests of high officials by government agents as a result of the grand jury investigation at South Bend. Two hours before the daily paper distributed on the streets of Gary came out, The American was being sold carrying the latest developments in the Federal probe. It was a sample of this newspaper's ability to get and publish the news, and demonstrated again that the American is always—"first with the latest." So great was the demand for this issue of the paper that orders coming in late for copies could not be filled. The entire edition was sold out within four hours after it came from the press. Another story carried in last week's issue of The American which was also a "secoop" was a report concerning the bombing of the D. J. Marcus cleaning and pressing establishment, 28 West Seventh avenue. Loses Life Trying To Save a Companion Danville, Va.,—John Price, white, lost his life here in a futile attempt to save Wm.

The Gary American Many Mourn Death of Twin City Preacher; Paid Tribute by Friends With religious leaders from neighboring towns and cities present, funeral services for Rev. W. F. Frazier, pastor of the First Baptist church of East Chicago, were held yesterday morning at the church with Dr. William Madison officiating. Praising the memory of the deceased, Dr. Madison described the late Rev. Frazier as one of the most beloved ministers in the Baptist church. He declared that his place in the denomination will not be filled for a long time. The work accomplished in East Chicago by the deceased was also extolled. "He has set an example," the speaker said, "for others to follow, and his memory should imbue every person to try to follow the precepts of Jesus of Nazarene who established a code of behaviour by which every man can govern his conduct with his fellow men." Rev. Frazier died last week after a lingering illness. He was former moderator of the Northern Indiana Baptist District association and for nine years was vice president of the General Baptist State convention. He was instrumental in acquiring the building which now houses the Twin City church and was considered one of the most influential men in East Chicago. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. L. J. Frazier, and by a brother, John of Pittsburgh. Dr. Johnson Returns Dr. L. B. Johnson of 2201 Washington street, has returned from a trip down south where he visited relatives and friends. Although Dr. Johnson sustained a few minor injuries as a result of an accident in which he figured he can resume his practice and take care of his large followers as a medical practitioner. Office of Publication: 7 East 19th Avenue Telephone Gary 2-4660 If Busy, Call Gary 2-3865 500 Visitors To Attend Meet Here Four Bishops To Attend Meeting of Denomination Here For 4 Days More than 500 visitors to Gary will be guests here in a few weeks of Israel C. M. E. church, of which the Rev. A. C. Bailey is pastor, when delegates to the annual conference of the eighth Episcopal district open their meeting here on the 30th day of this month. To make the occasion a memorable one and to impress the throng of visitors with the kind of hospitality Gary can show to strangers, an elaborate program for the entertainment of the visitors is being planned for the conference, according to J. W. Golden, prominent member of Israel church. A cordial welcome to the "Steel City" will be accorded the delegates on the opening day of the conference and at this time, men and women prominent in the civic, religious and education activities of Gary will deliver addresses of welcome to the visitors. 4 Bishops to Be Present One of the things which will make the conference an event of outstanding significance and one of the greatest conventions to come to Gary during the present year will be the fact that four bishops of the Colored Methodist Episcopal church will be present. The conference will be presided over by Bishop James A. Hamlett, reputed leader in the denomination. According to Golden, the purpose of the conference aside from the usual routine with which the body will deal, will be to select delegates to the general conference of the C.M.E. church which will be held in Louisville in May. Golden praised the government of the denomination and declared that few religious groups in the country are governed under laws as democratic as those of the C.M.E. church. No person, not even a bishop, can be a monarch wielding unlimited power in the denomination, he said, as members are provided, under its discipline, with power to check any officer. While the program for opening day of the conference has not been completed, Golden declared today that the speakers will be men and women prominent here. The meeting will be in session for four days. Mrs. Malone Loses Suit for $13,000 St. Louis, Mo.,—(ANP)—Completing temporarily its long and tortuous journey through local courts, a suit against Mrs. Annie M. Malone of Poro College by Walter L.

Majors, a former employee, was decided in the latter's favor this week to the amount of $7,528 with interest of $6,322, a total of $13,850. c. MME. MALONE Referee William Roener handed down the verdict. Attorneys for Mrs. Malone announced that in the event the court accepted the referee's report an appeal would be immediately taken. Majors back in 1913 signed a contract to serve as a manager for Mrs. Malone's business. Six weeks later he declares he was discharged and asked $100,000 damages. Mrs. Malone replied that he had abandoned his position. An appeal will probably start the case on another journey of three or four years. —Narrow gauge railroads are still used in the following countries: Saxony, Germany; New South Wales; Queensland; West Australia; New Zealand; India; South Africa: GARY, INDIANA, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1929 MUSTARD HELLO, EVERYBODY!

He was made a brigadier-general in the Revolutionary army and organized a legion of his own. At an attack on Savannah in 1779, he was mortally wounded and died on board the famous Wasp. Everyone is cordially invited to attend both the demonstration at Gleason field and the exercises at Memorial auditorium, according to Dr. Grubbs who extended a similar invitation to all churches and civic bodies of the "Steel City."

JEW NOT A FRIEND TO NEGRO,CLAIMED JEW NOT A FRIEND TO NEGRO,CLAIMED Question Arouses Doubts As to Sincerity of Semite People Every week, The Gary American asks a question. Here are the answers to the questions: "Is the Jew a Friend to the Negro?" Mr. C. L. Howard, attorney, 2588 Washington: The Jew is not a friend to the Negro. There is no mutual regard by the one for the other. The Jew is friendly, not hostile; a sagacious financier and in manner and behavior, companionable and sociable. Mr. Ariel Loveclair, university student, 1965 Adams st.: Say listen, kid, take it from me, he is a friend to himself alone. Mr. C. L. Carroll, attorney, 1745 Broadway: Yes, take several of the Jews. For instance, Julius Rosenwald. He is a great philanthropist, and he made many contributions during the War. In financing the Revolutionary War in aid of this country, necessarily resulted into Negroes, who even at that time had become inmaterial part of the United States, though at that time were not citizens. But today Rosenwald is specifically aiding Negroes by way of and through his many very large contributions and donations to schools in the South as well as in the north and otherwise. Next way he is greatest financier and business man this country has today, and of course his financial ability either results directly or indirectly as a benefit to our group. Mr. Louis Norris, barber, 1704 Maryland: I don't think he is. He is a friend to himself and no one else. Of course you can't make him angry if he thinks you will spend a dollar. I haven't had much dealings with the Jew, and therefore can't answer it as full as I would like to. Mr. Dorris Harris, expressman, 2323 Adams. Surely. For instance, Julius Rosenwald who pays at least fifty per cent of all funds for the schools in the South for colored children. F. W. Sims, auto salesman, 2354 Washington. The Negroes have no friends and the reason is because they are not friendly to each other. Mrs. W. B. Gary, 22 E. 18th ave.: I think that the Jew is a friend to the Negro, Mr. Rosenwald is an example of this friendliness. Who has helped the race more than he?

TECHNICALITY IN LAW FREES BESS OF ALL CHARGES High Body Rules Pardon Cannot Be Revoked; Case Concluded Columbia, S. C. — Convicted of a capital crime, and believed guilty by state officials who sought thru all lawful means to force him to complete seventeen remaining years of his prison sentence, Ben Bess, Negro, was a free man today thru a legal technicality. Thirteen years ago Bess was convicted of assault upon a white woman and given a sentence of thirty years in the state penitentiary. Last spring the woman signed affidavits that he was innocent. Backed by an overwhelming public sentiment, Gov. Richard pardoned the Negro. Steps were taken to prosecute the woman for perjury. It was found she had been paid $50 to sign affidavits whose contents were unknown to her. She declared she forgave Bess. Confronted with the new evidence, Gov. Richards revoked the pardon and recommitted Bess to prison. Court procedure based on the contention the governor had no right to revoke a pardon once given followed. In a decision rendered Saturday, the Supreme court upheld the contention and ordered Bess free. The Negro was released yesterday, He said he planned to go to Philadelphia to make his home. New York—All fourteen circuit judges of the state of South Carolina have been called to sit upon the case of Ben Bess, colored farmer who has served thirteen years of a 30-year sentence on a white woman's perjured testimony. This information comes to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People from N. J. Frederick, colored attorney of Columbia, S. C., in charge of the case, who writes: "So important are the questions raised in the Ben Bess case that an Ben Bane session has been called for Saturday morning next at 10 o'clock. This means that all of the Circuit Judges of the State (14) have been called to sit with the Supreme Court to bear and determine this case. "Of course we are hoping that we will be able to show them that Ben Bess ought not even now be in prison! I will let your office know the result." The N.A.A.C.P. has contributed $300.00 to date toward the expenses of this long and persistent legal battle for the freedom of this unjustly convicted South Carolina farmer. Man Freed of Charge of Carrying Pistol Dayton, Ohio—(By The Associated Negro Press). Quite a discussion arose down at police court Wednesday when the judge failed to jail a Negro for carrying concealed weapons. Among the prisoners arranged before Judge Hodapp were a white man, charged with being drunk, and a colored man facing charge of carrying concealed weapons—a revolver. The white man drew a fine of $20 and costs. The Negro was fined $15 and costs and the judge suspended both the fine and the costs and sent him from the courtroom scot free.

"The Gary American enters the field without malice or envy toward anyone. It has no axe to grind. Neither does it have anyone to punish; it has but one aim, to which it will cling with pious devotions, and that is to stand squarely in defense of the rights of the black American."—Prospectus of The Gary American No. 1, November 10, 1927. Opening of the free public schools in the United States is a happy time of the year—happy for the children and happy for the parents. Increasing intelligence to a great nation made up of all races is the divinest gift of the Creator of humanity. It was wonderfully ordained that the schools should open in September, when spring and summer have perfected their work of germination and harvest. So life drives on and feeds, clothes and matures for manhood and womanhood the oncoming millions of well-fed and well-educated youth, under American institutions. The new generations are better equipped morally, mentally and physically to meet the problems of life and sustain a prosperous civilization, under our tried and tested American constitution. This nation is built on two great armies—the army of happy school children with their lunch boxes headed for the school houses open for all, and the contended well-paid army of laborers producing the essentials of life for all. Carelesness. The Great Destroyer Today, if this is an average 24 hours, several score people will be killed and thousands injured in automobile accidents. It happened yesterday, and it will happen again tomorrow. Somebody turned without giving a signal; somebody was driving too fast; somebody didn't stop at a school district or a through boulevard; somebody insisted too much on right-of-way or what he conceived to be his privilege; somebody lost his head in a crisis. The result: Casualties and waste, in lives and property, that knowledge, caution and fairness towards others would have prevented. It should be a reasonably simple thing to observe traffic laws, to keep a machine under control, to learn the written and unwritten rules of the road, and to keep one's eyes open for the mistakes of others as well as one's own. Yet millions of motorists fail to do so. It should be remembered that every accident is caused because someone was reckless, incompetent, careless or ignorant. Unpreventable accidents are rare. And in this day of fast cars and congested traffic, the poor driver is a menace to the life and property of every citizen. There is a subtle difference between the methods of handling crime in this country and in many other great nations, that is seldom commented on. Here, when crime gets out of hand, we begin immediately to suggest and pass new laws that restrict the rights of the good citizen, and so create more criminals; there, the laws and judicial procedure are based on the supposition that the good citizen should be protected, in his rights and his property, and that only the criminal should be prosecuted. Few of us realize this difference. But a mere glance at our statute books will produce a damning pile of evidence to show that in the past quarter-century more and more laws revoking individual rights have been passed, while the criminal has been waxing fat and prosperous. It is a cold day that fails to produce a number of armed hold-ups and gang shootings and murders in Our Country. Apparently the underworld is better armed than ever. Yet our more zealous reformers cry unceasingly for anti-pistol laws that will make it impossible for the good citizen to own a weapon, for protection or sport. We are a great nation, but in many things we can still learn. It is certainly within the bounds of logic that more attention should be paid to preventing and punishing the real criminal than in passing laws against our constitutional rights as a free people. 4.

This is the statement of the celebrated philosopher-traveler-teacher, Count Herman Keyserling, writing in the October Atlantic Monthly on "What the Negro Means to America." In his article, as summarised by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Count Keyserling declares there "has never been anything like the American Negro in Africa" and the American Negro is "as opposed to his forbears, as much as any middle Westerner of old pioneer stock can claim to be." Count Keyserling further writes that "almost all expressions of American emotionalism seem to be of Negro origin," and that the white man must express himself in the way of the Negro. He continues, later, "there is nothing improbable in the expectation, considering the emotional and artistic under-endowment of the white American race, that the first original geniuses of the New World will belong to the black." White America's "lack of original vitality." Count Keyserling traces to the city civilization of the country and the divorce of Americans from the soil. The danger being that "the United States may really some day become one single town." Eventually, "if the white American continues on his present line of development, then America may end by becoming the black continent of modern days."
