REVIVES THE SECOND ONE Having learned as a Boy Scout how to resuscitate a drowning person, Cezere Zampese, 15, 426 Center street, was able to save the life of James Allen, 10, Negro, 1519 North Eighteenth street, after he had already saved James' brother, Jesse, 12, at Carter lake Thursday. The drowning boys, with two pals, Robert Quarel, 12, Eighteenth and Charles streets, and Jim Green, 12 1518 North Nineteenth street, had gone to "bare beach" north of the Illinois Central trestle at the lake for a swim this morning. Cezere and a group of white boys, also unclothed, were swimming about a hundred yards to the north. James and Jesse were 50 feet from shore when both became tired, and thought to wade back. But a "step-off" in the lake bed there gave the water a depth of 15 feet, and struggling, both sank. Saves One; Goes Back. Hearing the shouts of their friends on shore, Cezere came running down the bank and swam toward the spot. He seized Jesse as he came up and pulled him to shore. Then Jesse told him his brother was at the bottom. Swimming back Cezere dived repeatedly. After several minutes he brought up the unconscious James, and swam with him to shore. Then he made use of his Boy Scout training. He emptied James' lungs of water, and applied artificial respiration by raising and lowering the arms and compressing the lungs. Police Surgeon Adams, summoned to the scene, arrived after natural breathing had been restored. Dr. Adams said Cezere had undoubtedly saved James' life.

The fine and costs amounted to $518.17, and was paid. Mrs. Brookins purchased Pullman reservations in New York for through trip to Orlando, Florida. At Jacksonville the conductor requested Mrs. Brookins to vacate the Pullman for the jim-crow. This Mrs. Brookins refused to do.

Be sure to vote. Luck to the winner. Tuesday next it is your duty and privilege to go to the primaries and help nominate by your vote the candidates of your respective parties, for the position or positions, to which you desire to see them elected in November. You may be a republican, as most of our race are; or a democrat, as an increasing number of our people are becoming to be; or a socialist, as a few others of our group are. But with whatever party you affiliate go to the primaries next Tuesday and vote for your choice. Vote as you like, but be sure to vote. The Primary Election is very important, indeed. Please do not underrate its importance or your duty. Vote according to your best judgment for the candidates whom you think will serve the people best and give your neighbor the same privilege. Don't fall out with him, or impute unworthy motives to him or her, because his choice may differ from yours. Boost your candidate for all you are worth and let your neighbor do the same thing without getting mad at him. The Monitor has certain favorite candidates which we hope to see nominated and in keeping with our usual custom we will, according to our space, tell who some of them, at least, are and give our reasons. You may differ from us, of course, which is your privilege. First of all, and the question of most vital importance to us in the community is the regaining of our former political prestige by showing our ability to elect one or more of our number to the State Legislature, and subsequently to other offices, municipal, county and state, as the case may be. Wisdom, however, suggests attempting one thing at a time. Now, as we see it we have a fighting chance, as we pointed out last week to nominate one, and perhaps two—since death has changed conditions in the Tenth district—to the state legislature. We stated in our last issue that our best fighting chance was in the Ninth district, where only one candidate had filed. We attempted to meet and answer some of the petty criticisms which have been advanced against the candidate, and urged the people to lay aside such petty personal likes and dislikes since we all have our faults, and get unitedly behind the candidate and put him over. This was the full force of our argument, which some readily grasped but others misunderstood. But this does not alter the facts or change our sentiment. We again urge the voters of the Ninth legislative district to get unitedly behind Dr. John A. Singleton and, not underrating the fight they have got to make, or the strength of his opponent, use every ounce of energy to put him over. The increased registration has improved our chances of winning. As we now see it we have a good fighting chance in the Ninth district, if all our people who have registered will get out and concentrate their vote on Singleton. But they must get out and vote. How about the Tenth district? We have a good fighting chance there, too, where we now have only one candidate in the person of F. L. Barnett. He has his faults, too, like the rest of us. There may be things about him that you do not like, but that is no excuse for refusing to vote for him. Compare him with the other two candidates in the district and he will not suffer by the comparison. Let our voters in the Tenth district get unitedly behind Barnett and our chances are excellent for nominating him. He came very near winning the nomination two years ago, which adds to his chances this time. The Monitor urges hearty support of both of our candidates who have filed for State representatives, as we believe here is our best chances of securing nomination and election, and because they are equally as well qualified as their opponents. We hope we have made it plain that we consider it of supreme importance to make a united, determined and strenuous fight to nominate Singleton for State Representative in the Ninth and Barnett in the Tenth. Now as to others: We are for Judge Sears for Congress for several reasons, chief among which is that he has gone on record as favoring the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, and because his experience in the House has given him advantages which a new member would have to gain. Were it not for this, Nathan Bernstein would be our choice. For governor, Adam McMullen is our choice, because we believe he has made good and will continue to make good. For sheriff our choice is Ross McGowan. Joseph Koutsky has made a good city commissioner and would doubtless make a good sheriff; but the Monitor is opposed to the custom, growing in favor, of candidates holding on to one political job and grabbing after another. We believe he should continue to serve as commissioner. McGowan is an untried man, but his platform and personality please us, and we believe he will make good. For this reason we are strong for Ross McGowan for sheriff. Henry Beal has, in our judgment, made a good, fair--minded County Attorney, and therefore is entitled to renomination and election. We are for him. Grace Berger has shown ability and efficiency as County Clerk and has been most fair and courteous to all classes of citizens and she therefore has our unqualified support. These are some of the candidates whom we favor, and our reasons therefor. You may have as good reasons or better for those whom you are supporting. Be sure to vote. That's the main thing, and good luck to the winner. CHARLES GILPIN READY FOR TITLE ROLE OF "UNCLE TOM'S CABIN" Los Angeles, Cal.-Charles Gilpin, the first world famous colored actor since Ira Aldridge, in an interview, stated that final arrangements have been made with Harry Pollard to start in his part of the already much talked of feature picture, "Uncle Tom's Cabin".

RACE RELATIONS COMMISSION FINDS NO SUPERIOR RACE Ocean City, N. J.—According to the findings of a thousand or more delegates to the Friends General Conference, there is "no superior or inferior" race. The result was attained by a ballot, conducted by the Race Relations section under Dr. R. T. Kerlin, of West Chester, Pa., and Rachel Davis DuBois. With the question settled, the conference then sought to determine ways and means of bringing about more amicable relations between the various races in this country. William S.

PAGE TWO Our Choice for President in 1928 is WALTER W. HEAD of Nebraska An Astute, Able, Clear- headed Business Man “NEGRO PSYCHOLOGY” A warm friend said to us the other day, “You don’t under- stand Negro psychology.” We've been told the same thing before. This remark has started us thinking. Are the general laws of mind different in our racial group to that of others? We have always believed that the laws of mind were the same, modified indeed by one’s na- tional environment but operat- ing in the same general grooves. We can understand how an ori- ental lo6ks at one thing one way and an occidental another. We can understand that there can be an “American mind,” and a “British mind” and a “German mind.” We have been lead to believe that a man of African descent, or Negro, if you please, horn and reared in the United States, or Great Britain or Ger- many would have a mind, or psy- chology moulded along the line of his environment and associa- tion, but that it should be differ- ent from that of another race va- riety under the same conditions we have questioned. Is there in- deed such, a thing as “Negro psy- chology?” IN JEST OR EARNEST? In the balloting for a school manager, some member of the Board of Education submitted the name of Tom Dennison, the alleged political boss of Omaha, painted by some as a veritable devil and by others as a saint. Some consider the submission of this name a joke, others as an outrage; but The Monitor opines that Tom Dennison, who has shown his ability as an organizer in other directions, were he chosen would be able to save the taxpayers money. He would be manager, and boss of the job, if ell that is said of him is true. The name may have been sub- mitted in jest or in earnest by some member of the Board of Education who from in‘imate knowledge may have respect for the business ability of the “political boss.” WHO’S WHO F.

LETTERS FROM OUR READERS Commends Editorial. | Omaha, Aug. 2—To the Editor of ‘The Monitor: Your excellent editor- ‘ial in your issue of July 30 has been read with pleasure and profit. I endorse every word and I wish to ‘commend you most heartily for your \wise, sane and unbiased expression concerning the political situation and the candidates whom you urge our people to get unitedly behind and sup- post, without dodging behind this flimsy excuse and that because there may be some little thing about them which they do not like. The Bible always gives us both sides of a man’s character, take for example Abraham and David, pointing out their faults as well as their virtues, and showing by contrast that their virtues far outweigh their vices or faults, and I think if this plan were more gen- erally carried out today we would be a great deal better off. Your edi- torials are doing good in making us think and see things in their true light and because of this I am con- strained to send you this word of hearty commendation. M. H. WILKINSON, '- Pastor Spring Hill Baptist Chureh, ee ee / Aske Sunnert for Fadres. | Opaha, July 26—To the Editor of |The Monitor: Allow mg a little space in your valuable paper in order that I may speak to my friends of the race who are registered Democratic why they should at this time support M. L. Endres, our present sheriff at the primary, August 10th, and make his nomination sure. July 23rd, while on duty on 53rd and Center streets, regulating traf- fic to protect the citizens from speeders and other disorderly ele- ments, I was run over by one of them in an automobile and for four months struggled between life-and death in Lord Lister hospital. When I finally came out of the hospital a cripple, and broken in my health, tne county commissioners for some rea- son unknown to me, served notice upon Mr. Endres, sheriff, demanding my discharge. Mr. Endres refused to discharge me, told the county com- ‘missioners that I was hurt while per- forming my duty and the county should stand by me; whereupon they |stopped my salary and for six months I worked without pay. i, had te appeal to the courts to ‘help me; Mr. Endres stood by me and helped me in my fight to get justice. They dragged me from one court into another, expending the taxpayers’ money, and finally the Su- preme Court in a mandamus ‘issued to the commissioners, forced them to pay the hospital, doctors, and pay me my salary. I need not recite to you the details of my painful experiences; that I am still alive is a miracle. I now plead that you support and vote for Mr. Endres for sheriff on August 10th, the man who stood by me in my bit- ter struggle and who still employs me, and who always upholds the prin- ciples of justice for everyone.

Screen patrons of Lake have their first opportunity to see dainty Olive Borden as a star in “Yellow Fingers,” a new Fox production based on Gene Wright's novel, at the Lake theatre next Thursday. The climb of this little actress from obscurity to stardom in an incredibly short time is one of the wonders of Hollywood. Now she is hailed by many film cities as the Duse6F the Rk) For the voters’ information, Mr. Koutsky started life in a sod house in Saunders county, Nebraska, in 1875, his parents being among the first home- steaders in the state, and he has lived in eastern Nebraska all of his life. JOSEPH KOUTSKY, candi- date for Sheriff on the Republi- can ticket, is now completing his second term as City Com- missioner in charge of the De- partment of Public Improve- ments in the City of Omaha. During Mr. Koutsky’s admini- stration there has been laid over one-half the paved streets within the city and this was accomplished at from 25 to 40 per cent less than in any other city similarily situated in this country. If Mr. Koutsky is elected sher- iff, he wants the voters of Oma- ha and Douglas county to know that he will be the real sheriff, and will take full charge of the office entrusted to him. No in- dividual or organization will dictate the policies of the sher- iff's office. Mr. Koutsky will conduct his campaign on the following prin- ciples: First—Everyone connected with the sheriff's office must be honorable in his pexform- ance of duty. Seeond—No inhuman treat- ment of prisoners will be tol- erated. ‘Third—No home will ever be entered for the purpose of mak- ing a search without a war- rant properly issued and based on reliable information. Fourth—Mr. Koutsky guar- antees to protect the rights of citizenship as provided in the constitution of the United States to all American citizens regard- less of race, color or creed. Fifth—A. square deal for everybody” will be given under the personal supervision of Joseph Koutsky. If you believe in these prin- ciples, vote for For Sheriff.

Certain it is that she posses- es unusual talent and in this produe- ‘tion she has @ story admirably adap- ted to her personality. | ‘The plot of “Yellow Fingers” con- cerns a beautiful half-caste girl who learns to love the man who has ‘reared her from infancy as his own eee He does not suspect the nature of her affection for him and when he falls in love with another, a beautiful American girl, all the fiery Jealousy of a woman scorned comes ‘to the surface. Many of the scenes ‘require emotional acting of the high- ‘est type and be it said for Miss Wor- den that she meets every requirement ‘of a difficult role. "The supporting cast includes Ralph Ince, Claire Adams, Edward Piel, ‘Otto Matieson, Nigel de Brulier and many other screen favorites.
