LOUISVILLE, KY., Jan. 26— (Special) Notable progress in the betterment of conditions for colored people and in the improvement of tace relations wes made in Kentucky last year, according to reports pre- sented at the recent annual meeting in this city of the State Commission on Inter-racial Co-operation, This Commission is herded by the Govern- or, and its mombership of eighty, half of them colored, is mate un of representative leaders in all lines, including the tate Superntertient of Education, who is one, of its most sympattet’c members. It will be seen, therefore, that {t 1s a most ins fluential body, capable of bringing things té pass. The work {s directed by Dr, James Bond, a colored leader of ability and fine spirit, who has had the sympathy and eo-operation of the best people of the Stete. The efforts of the Commission dur- ing the pact year were largely direct. ed toward better school facilities for Negroes. Remarkable results were attained, including the following: A $125,000 Nigh schoo! addition, a new high school, and the improve- ment of others, in Louisville; a $100,- 000 high school in Lexington; en- largement of high school at Rich- mond; new buildings sat Mayfield, Jackson, La Grange end o:tez points; participation in proceeds of school bond issues in Bowling Green, Owens- boro and Middlesboro; and edditional teachers and increased salaries in certain places. . The Director was asked by the Stete Superintendent of Education to outline a program for the betterment of the Negro school system of the State, and suggested the appoint- ment of colored supervisor, the rais- ing of the State Normal to college r-nde, and the establishment of a new Stete Normal, This program was accepted, the first two steps have al- weady been taken, and the third is confidently expected next year, The Director was ashed to assist also in locating the eight colored summer Normela and was requested to address them on the subject of in- rr-racial co-operation. He has taken the same message to the principal wh te col'eges of the State and has been herd sympathetioally tvery- where. Some of these great schools have courses in inter-racia! relations and plans are under way to put such courses in others. Better playground facilleties have been secured in Louisville, Mayfield and Jackson, and plans are under way a municipal swimming pool in Louts- ville, Lege! ald has been secured for the Negroes of Warren County, a vig- orous Health Week Campaign was condita, r-aching 60.90 rerple, and one tense situation which threatened mob violence was cleared up. In addition to the State Inter-ra- cial Commission, there are about sev- enty county committees in Kentucky, most of them functioning effectively, The method {a that of frank confer- ence and sympathetic co-operation. Anti-Ku Klux Klan Bill Faces Strong Opposition in North Carolina. RALEIGH, N.C. Jan. 26—The strong opposition in the committee on Judiclary of the Senate to the Bag- wet bil almed at the Ku Klux*Klan in this state which makes it a felony punishable by imprisonment for any person to appaer off his premises dis- guised so as to conceal his identity, caused the measure to be referred to ‘& sub-committee and a public hearing on the bill set for the S-nate chamber kt three o'clock Thursday afternoon. It is said-that the Bagget bill has the support of the leading white cit- izens from all parts of the state and that scores of them have indicated thet they will be on hand to defend the ‘measure at the public hearing. Senstor Sqiures announced to the sen- ate that the measure would be oppos- ed. The Bagget bill, which excepts from its provis'ons persons attending hallow'en parties end properly con- ducted masquerades and minors un- der 18 years of are, is one of the two bills against the klan now pending in the general assembly, The other which wes introduced in the House of Reoresentatives by Representa- tive Mill’ken, of Union, provides for the registration of the membership of all secret societies. White Woman Dead; Negro Arrested. Penatan News Service) COLUMBIA, §. C., Jan, 26—The mysterous death of a white woman at Oler, a smsll town near here caused the arrest of Thomas Johneton as a suspect. He was lodged in jail last Wednesday morning end that night a mob of white men took him from the fail ard carried him to a small thick- et with the usual intent of making a pendulum of him by tying a slip- noose around his neck end allowing his body to swing in the air from the end of the suspended rope, But some- how their conscience would not allow them to carry out thein premeditated plan and they simply “talked and talked” to Johnston and then turned him over to the officers, It is believ- ed Johnston will await trial in con- nect'on with the murder of the woman at the snecial term of court at Bram- berg, which will convene shortly, A PROGRAM LEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. NAMONAL SHEIES WEE, One of the most far reaching pro- grams yet put over in this commun- ity, was that of the Committee pro- moting National Thrift Week. An unusual Interest was manifested by the men. And at the noon hour each day, they gathered at the different business places and discussed the ve- rious topies, led by some outstanding spcaker on that subject. In the clos- Ing program, Captain W. L. Hutcher- son, the man aclected by the Business League to promote the program, made the observation that he was most so- Heitous thet thls would not be a“Stunt Program;” but that the program pro- jected during this week would be the beginning of a Year of real activiti¢s In the endeavor to make “Thrift” a part of the Community Lift, A BUSY MAN WITH A BIG MESSAGE. ‘The outstanding feature of the “Thrift Week” Program was the Sun- day mecting, held at the Calvary Bap- tist Church, with the Mayor, W. C, Coleman, as the speaker. This was “Share With Others” day, and the message was on “Christian Steward ship.” Mr, Coleman brought us a great ringing message on this very important subject that shall not:soon be forgotten, Among other things, Mr, Coleman said: “Twenty-five years ago, the philosophy of the Business World was, “Live and Let Live;” but that of the 20h Century wes: “Live and Help Liv.* In Christian Fel~ lowship, the Challange Is up to us. v MAKIN EYE DRUG COMPANY "The Ready Place" Where Business is Known and Transacted.

New Hope Baptist. Did you gain a "new height" in Sunday School, Sunday when the story of "The Prodigal Son" was being taught? The Primary Motto Text-"God is Love" should make all feel grateful to God whose unfathomnable love caused Him to give His only begotton Son so that any who believe on Him shall be saved. We all were prodigals but thank God, many have returned and found a welcome fellowship with the Father. We are praying and working that God may bless our church and Sunday School and all the departments of our Christian service worship. We do not neglect to pray and work for others also. Read Isaiah fortieth chapter, perusing specially the thirty-first verse: "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; und they shall walk and not faint." Dr Fishback fed the flock from the Word of God in the above named chapter. During the Social Hour, an interesting question-box program was conducted by Miss Neola Parks. The program developed the fact that our group of young people are conversant with current topics. The profitable Study Hour of the B. Y. P. U., made each one richer in Biblical knowledge. The Scripture Lesson for the Sunday evening worship was Phil. 4:214. Rev. Chittham preached an excellent sermon based upon the text and subject which follow: Phil. 4:13; "The Peace that Originates This Claim." Our sick-Mr. Moore is ill at his home 907 E. 3rd street. Mrs. Aria Tittington in (900 block N. Wabash) is very sick. Mrs. Tolbert, Sister of-Mrs. Agnes Williams, is sick at their home (1100 block N. Washington. Mrs. Anna McAfee is much better. Mrs. Ruby Tines is growing more normal in health. Mrs. McGee is better. Miscellaneous;—James Taylor attended the Older Boys' Conference in Winfield, Sunday. After enjoying a splendid visit with her daughter, Mrs. W. L. Hutcherson, and family, Mrs. Emma Waldron, of Danville, Ill., left the city Wednesday of last week enroute for home. Capt. and Mrs. W. L. Hutcherson allowed their eldest son Walter to accompany her. Mr. and Mrs. Henry-Young --- Beginning with live Sunday School under the direction of Mrs. J. W. Hayes and her corp of teachers, the church had o great day. The eleven o'clock sermon by Pastor J. W. Hayes was powerful in its appeal. There were two additions, one for baptism. Many rejoiced in the God of their salvation. At 2:30 p. m., the church was filled to an over-flow to witness the burying of 33 souls in the liquid graves, the only door to the visible church. The Spirit seemingly manifested His power on the occasion. Owing to Rev. J. R. Roman of Eldorado, being late, Rev. B. C. Rannavalona preached a great sermon. Immediately following this, we had had a wonderful meeting representing one day of the Thrift Week, viz: "Share with Others" or Christian Stewardship." Mayor W. C. Coleman certainly gave us a wonderful address on this much important subject. He made us think and examine ourselves and declare to be a more exact steward of the Master. The Unions are taking on new life and planning great things. Aside from the great sermon by our pastor, next great thing was to see over 100 fellowshipped into the church.

Perhaps no better evidence of a spiritual interest could have been manifested than was shown at the morning and evening services at St. Paul, beginning with the early morning prayer meeting and continuing throughout the day last Sunday. The result, being that wenty persons young and elderly, came forward to enlist in service for the Master. Two very able discourses were delivered, by the pastor Rev. Pope morning and evening and the congregation joined heartily with the choir in the hymns of praise, assisted by the new bulletin sheet which enables all to participate. The subject in the evening was from John 8:3-11 in which the pastor brought to our minds most vividly the scene of the woman brought before Christ by the Scribes and Pharisees and accused of adultery and was practically and forcibly applied to the hypocrisy of many who today stand ready to accuse others, when they themselves may be more gulity of immoralities than those whom they accuse. The hand of God is writing now as it wrote on the wall at Belshazzar's Feast. God's love and mercy is shown in what the earth yields to man for sustenance and yet he is heedless and ungrateful. As Christ warned the Scribes and Pharisees then, he is warning men today. Will you heed?
