Best of Others From South in Hercule Days Failures in the War of Con- federacy Washington, April 27.—The coming to Congress of the first Negro member in twentieth eight years has created widespread comment except among students of governmental history, for at one time it was not unusual for a member of the race to be found in Washington legislating for the country. Fifteen Negroes have served in the National House of Representatives and three Negroes have sat in the House of Representatives Senate. Whereas the Negroes in the past have come to Congress from the South, Representative DePriet, the present member, halls from Chicago, Born in Alabama, he is one of many Negroes who traveled North of the Mason and Dixon line and became active in politics. Last in 1901 The last Negro in Congress was George H. White, of North Carolina. He served two terms, from 1897 to 1901. Rev. Hirom R. Revels, of Mississippi, was the first Negro Senator. He was elected to succeed Jefferson Davis and afterward became a college president and later a bishop in the A. M. E. Church. Pinckney P. Pinckney, of Louisiana, served as acting governor of Louisiana, congressman-at-large and United States Senator. He took four years to win his seat in the Senate. Danley L. Brutes, of Mississippi, was elected United States Senator in 1874, and later was named Reporter, the Treasury by President Garfield. Many Negro congressmen now their seats in the heels days following the Civil War and before laws were enacted which have prevented the Negroes from exercising their numerical superiority in many States in the South. Long Was First Jefferson Long, of Georgia, served in the Forty-first Congress shortly after the Civil War, and was the first Negro member of the national legislative body. Benjamin Turner, of Alabama, was elected to the Forty-second Congress, and Jeremiah Harlanson to the Forty-fourth Congress. Among the other Negro members were Robert Small, who also was a captain in the United States Navy. One of the most prominent of the Negro congressmen was John R. Lynch. Miss. He served 2 terms and was temporary chairman of the Republican National Convention in Chicago in 1884. Attorney J. E. Byrd's Son Passes. Janus E. Bryd Jr., died at Burkerville, Va., April 24, 1920, after a prolonged illness. He was 20 years of age and was the son of Attorney J. E. Bryd, a prominent lawyer of this city. He had been a student of the Virginia State College Etrucks Va., graduating in 1928 with high honors. He wrote several poems that received high praise from critics and in one instance received special recognition from a North Carolina institution of learning. His funeral took place from his parents' residence, 806 North Fifth Street, Richmond, Va. He was the only child. President J. M. Gandy, accompanied by a delegation from the faculty and the students, came over to attend the funeral services, which were conducted by Rev. R. H. Johnson, pastor of Sharon Baptist Church of this city. Rev. A. S. Thomas, D. D., assisted. The Lampodas Club of the Virginia State College served as palumbearers. Much sympathy was expressed for the heartbroken father. Of him it was said that he was an Perry Howard Resigns. Negro Justice Department Assistant Quits Washington, May 6—The suspension of Perry W. Howard as a special assistant attorney general was lifted today by the Department of Justice and Howard resigned immediately, saying he intended to enter the practice of private law. Howard, a Negro, is Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, but he is not recognized by the Hoover administration in party matters. He was acquitted recently in Mississippi of charges of accepting money for influencing Federal appointments. At the time of his indictment former Attorney General Sargent issued the suspension order pending the outcome of the case. NOMINATES THREE NECROES TO NAVAL ACADEMY Washington, May 6.—Three Negro candidates, two for admission as midshipmen to the Annapolis Naval Academy, and one as a cadet at the RICHMOND ,VIRGIN1A, SATURDAY MAY 11 1929 West Point Military Academy, have been nominated by Representative Osceola De P尉 of the First Illinois District. All of the candidates are from his district in Chicago. Representative De P尉 is the only Negro member of Congress. Lawrence A. Whitefield and Clance B. Dumas are his nominees to Annapolis, and Alonzo S. Parham to West Point. These youths are the "principal" nominees, but if they fail to make the necessary grades in the physical and mental examinations three alternates will be chosen. In years past there have been other Negroes at West Point and Annapolis. Colonel Charles Young, the most famous of the Negro graduates at West Point, was military attach to Liberia and is buried at Arlington. The Navy Department has been advised of the names given by the Illinois representative for appointment to the Naval Academy, but has not been informed that the men are Negroes, as such certification is not required, and the point is one which does not concern the navy officially. Only three Negro midshipmen have been appointed to Annapolis since the Naval Academy was founded, and all of them were from the South during "reconstruction" days. They each spent only a year at the Academy. MRS MINNIE ALBRITTON JACKSON IN SONG ... RECITAL Sacred Song Recital at Sixth St. Baptist Church, 6th and Clay Sts. Rev.

ISSUE WARRANT FOR LINDSAY ON LIQUOR CHARGE Negro's Testimony Involves Brother of Gloucester State's Attorney, Gloucester, Va., May 3.—Testimony given by a Negro, on trial for alleged violation of the State liquor laws, this afternoon resulted in the issuance of a warrant charging Lewis Lindsay, brother of Commonwealth's Attorney David H. Lindsay, with manufacturing whiskey. The warrant for Lindsay's arrest was sworn out by Deputy Sheriff E. P. Rhoads, at the instance of Major E. W. Gibson, assistant attorney general of Virginia. Major Gibson came here this morning to prosecute the Negro, Jim Lee. Commonwealth's Attorney Lindsay was in court during the hearing, but he took no part in the prosecution. Major Gibson handled the case alone. The warrant was served on Lewis Lindsay about 8 o'clock tonight. He will appear at Gloucester Courthouse tomorrow morning, at which time arrangements will be made for bond. The warrant was arrested by Rhoads, following a raid on a still located on the property of B. F. Lindsay, near Belrol, father of Lewis Lindsay and the Commonwealth's Attorney, both of whom reside with their parent. Lee, who, it is understood, will be used as a witness by the Commonwealth, after the grand jury has acted on the charges against him, testified that he had been employed by Lewis Lindsay to operate the still. Closely questioned by Major Gibson, the Negro said Lindsay had come to his home and entered into a bargain with him to transport meal, sugar, mash and equipment to the location on which the still was set up. He said the sugar and meal had been hidden in the woods and that Lindsay had hauled the material from this cache to the site on which the still was in operation when raided. Lee also told of accompanying Lindsay to the home of another Negro, who, witnesses testified, had the reputation of making the "best liquor in Gloucester." The second Negro, Chapman Coelfeld, was held for the grand jury, which convenes Monday. Deputy Sheriff Rhoads testified to finding the still in full operation, with eight barrels of mash and seventy-five gallons of liquor near-by. The still was being prepared for a "run" when the officer arrived at the scene. Rumors that Lee would make a clear breast of the charges against him and implicate several "higher-ups" in the alleged liquor conspiracy had been rife in Gloucester since the raid on the Lindsay property, and a crowded room heard the Negro relate his story.

FE fe !! TO N.C. Argued urt. His Decision. Argued. Judge D. Lawrence Groner took under advisement Friday, May 3rd, the petition of Richmond Negroes for an injunction to forbid enforcement of the city's new segregation ordinance, following three hours of argument by counsel in United States District Court here. Judge Groner said he would try to render a decision within thirty days. The principal question at issue is whether the ordinance contravenes the Federal Constitution. It provides that no one may occupy a house on any block in the city where the majority of the residents on that block are persons with whom he is or she is forbidden to marry, under the State racial integrity act. City Attorney James E. Cannon and Assistant City Attorney Lucius Cary appeared in opposition to the petition for an injunction, and Alfred E. Cohen and J. R. Pollard argued in favor of it. The court room was well filled during the hearing, most of those present being Negroes. Charges Law Unconstitutional. Court opinion. The court contended that the ordinance is contrary to the thirteenth and fourthteen amendments to the Federal Constitution, since it is based on race and color and abridges the constitutional rights of citizens, and that it calls for an unwarrantable exercise of the police power. Counsel for the defendants argued that the ordinance is constitutional. Attorney Pollard contended that the United States Supreme Court, in Harmon vs. Tyler, a case involving a residential segregation ordinance in New Orleans, held the ordinance to be unconstitutional because it was based on race and color, and on an unreasonable exercise of the police power. "The law cannot recognize distinction on account of race or color," he declared. This "theory of ordinance is purely a race segregation ordinance, and is based on race and color. The United States Supreme Court has held that such a law is void." Declares Two Alike Mr. Cohen declared that there "is no substantial difference" between an ordinance enacted in Louisville, and declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1917, and the Richmond ordinance now under consideration. This case, Mr. Cohen said, was styled Buchanan versus Warley, and it "was said by its defenders to be designed to preserve racial purity." He stated that the supreme tribunal, in a unanimous decision, declared it to be unconstitutional. "There is absolutely nothing advanced in the Richmond case which was not advanced in the Louisville case," he declared. "The Louisville ordinance had more substantial relations to racial integrity than the Richmond ordinance." Mr. Cary contended, on the other hand, that the Louisville ordinance "did not deal with an attempt to prohibit the amalgamation of the races, as does the ordinance in the instant case." Relation to Property "All of the court decisions in the segregation of race uses of property have turned on the same constitutional question, toowit: whether or not the fourteenth amendment protects the free use of property," he said. "The purpose and legal principles are the same, that is, in the (Continued on page 8) EES See ay etl Coma nn a = f CoOe cate \ se Fe, — u SE ce | ay Bee a a Lika Bes en) ca ee | : PA See 2 eS ae > i age f Sea Pe i Rey oe ek Ag Re se & eh Rese tls AY PANO ir Wel ne a) : peies a .

Thousands that would not read an Einstein pamphlet will read this. Walter Dorsey, colored, of Atlanta, Ga., confessing to chicken stealing on a wholesale basis tells the judge, "I just sprays 'em with chloroform. Then stand back and wait. In about five minutes they flip off the roost and are reby my scissor." That's more interesting to many of us than the distance of the farthest star. The "William and Mary" plan to substitute exports of farm products is rejected by Mr. Hoover. The Senate plans, nevertheless, to try it. The plan is to give farmers exporting wheat, etc., a bonus of one half the American tariff on all the wheat or other farm products exported. After consulting the Departments of Agriculture, Commerce and the Treasury, Mr. Hoover says the plan would enrich the speculators and reduce world prices, since foreign markets would have to meet the competition of subsidized products. Also, says the President, the plan would cost the country $200,000,000 a year, cause much bankruptcy and it would not solve the farm problem. Farmers will cease moaning when they realize that the bonus money would be paid not direct to them but to merchants exporting products. It needs "no ghost come from the gates" to tell farmers how little they would get it that bonus. Wheat gambrels and the middle-men would get it. The farmer in his taxes would have to pay part of it. Mr. Tunney, world heavyweight champion, retired, has been visiting George Bernard Shaw on a small sunny island in the Adriatic Sea. Tunney is barely thirty. Shaw is seventy-three. And Shaw, who has NOT retired, has no idea of retiring. The head lasts longer than the fists. Eight hundred delegates to the Red Cross Convention called upon President and Mrs. Hower, and contributed first "First Aid" by retraining from the usual hand-shaking nonsense. * Handshaking should be abolished, since it means nothing and spreads germs. Germany permits all survivors of the Enduon to add "Enuden" to the rest of their name. Thus Friedrich Garbe is Friedrich Garbe-Enuden. The Enden destroyed eighteen steamers and one cruiser before an Australian cruiser ended its career. On the same basis Colonel Lintberg would call himself Colonel Lindbergh-Atlantic Ocean. W. A. PRICKLE FUNERAL DIRECTOR 10 N 17TH STREET RICHMOND, VIRGINIA THE KING OF SWAT RECEIVES HIS PROMISED SWEET REWARD George Herman Ruth, the most spectacular figure in baseball, known to millions of fans as "the Babe," is shown receiving an osculatory reward from the new Mrs. Ruth at the Yankees Stadium. The new Mrs. Ruth is a "regular attendant at the games in which her husband partakes, usually in a stellar role. The Babe loves the Missus, there's no doubt about that, and the Missus loves the Babe, there's no doubt about that either, but the Babe must, if he wants to be rewarded in the sweetest and most thrilling manner, hit the ball for a home run at least once a day. The photograph indicates that he enjoys collecting the rewards." (Herbert N.-Y.) THREE THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA THREE ```markdown ``` Ubertar A. Allen, 412 E. Clay Street. Elinv E.

Oscar De Priest, the Republican congressman for the First Congressional District of Illinois, has met the issue and has nominated two colored men for the Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md., and one to the Military Academy at West Point, New York. Their names are Laurence Alexander Whitfield and Claude Henson Burns for the former institution and Alonzo Souleigh Parham to West Point. They must stand the physical and mental tests at the respective institutions. It will not be long before reports will be sent over the country with reference to their alleged shortcomings. If they lack nerve they might as well stay at home. They are to undergo a test which will be closely akin to the old Spanish Inquisition. God grant that they may be able to undergo the ordeal and come out "pure gold." The Richmond Times-Dispatch, under the caption of "Washington's Social War," discusses in an admirable manner the case of Mrs. Gann, who deserted her own husband in order to "shine in the social world" by the side of her brother. We agree with its conclusions. Evidently this lady has not been brought up and bred in the school of the most polite society, where modesty and good breeding are noticeable features. The yielding of the diplomats as expressed by Sir Elsmer Howard, the dean of the diplomatic corps, was in the nature of a rebuke, a waiver of polite society's requirements for the time being. A Virginia lady of the old school of the first families of Virginia would have accepted it as a triumph which need not to have been pressed to its final conclusion. She would have absented herself upon that occasion and resumed her place at the side of her own husband, who could not by any scheme of reasoning have been admitted to a place where she craved to be. Now Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth wife of the Speaker of the House of Representatives declines to attend social functions to which Mrs. Gann is expected to appear at the side of the Vice-President of the nation. THE STRANGE CASE OF PERRY W. HOWARD We cannot understand how the administration of President Herbert Hoover can justify or explain its unjust treatment of Perry W. Howard, a colored leader of Mississippi. This remarkable man has made an open, daring, resolute fight while maintaining his innocence, and has done so in the face of the influence and active opposition of a government that should have at least maintained a disinterested position while he fought for a reputation that he had built up during a lifetime. It was the most valuable asset that he had for it was a good reputation. In the face of these odds, he won and was vindicated by two juries in two towns in his own State. He was himself assistant attorney general and was suspended until the result of these trials had been determined. It would have been naturally supposed that with his vindication would come his restoration to his position in the government service. He was restored and when he in turn tendered his resignation, it was promptly accepted. This was the work, we learn, of his Republican enemies headed by Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, who now seems to be the controlling figure in this great "Department of Injustice." Mr. Howard announces that he will return to the practice of law and we have no doubt but what success will attend his efforts. He is still, however, the unrecognized but legal member of the National Republican Committee from Mississippi. Attorney Howard still has a great future. He has made a fight that has attracted the attention of all lovers of justice and fair play. His enemies have been 'playing with fire' and it will yet burn them. THE NEWS LEADER SPEAKS PLAINLY The Richmond, Va., News Leader, in its issue of the 4th instant, takes high ground and speaks unreservedly for the better class of white and colored people of this community. Here it is: SEGREGATION—THE NEXT STEP SEGREGATION From Judge Groner's well-matured opinion in the segregation case, whatever that opinion may be, appeal will of course be taken. The Supreme Court of the United States will ultimately pass on the Richmond ordinance and, in the present favorable condition of the docket, may act within a year. No segregation ordinance has ever yet stood the scrutiny of the court of last resort. The cunning have gone down with the crude, and the court has never yet admitted the right of any municipality to deny any citizen the right to live wherever he can buy, rent or procure the quarters he desires. The Supreme Court has always held that such restrictive measures invade the equal rights guaranteed citizens of the United States. The News Leader cannot persuade itself that the clever gentlemen of the city attorney's office have drawn an ordinance that will stand where a score have fallen. The approach is novel, but the intent of the law is so obvious that the court is apt to give the usual answer. Within eighteen months, the Negroes of Richmond probably will have restored to them the right of free movement that was theirs before the ordinance was signed in February. If nothing more were involved than a return to conditions as they existed prior to February, then the ultimate decision of the court would affect only the few unfortunate neighborhoods where the residential lines of the two races meet. But the "if" does not hold up, which has crept into the question, which is always troublesome, a new element of reservation, the one side and of resentment on the other, and this manifestly is bad for Richmond. Those who believe in racial co-operation have done what they could to reassure the disturbed Negroes of Richmond. Enough has been said to convince the Negro leaders that while the council passed the ordinance almost unanimously, a large element of citizens does not believe this the right way to solve a problem that gives as much concern to Negroes as to whites. These white men and women are working on the assumption that the ordinance will certainly be declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, and that the city will then need the help of Negro leaders in working out some plan by which the two races will have decent living quarters without clashes. This help will be given. Of that The News Leader is sure. But something more should be done to show the average Negro that Richmond does not intend to treat him unjustly, and, at the same time, something should be undertaken to persuade the white resident of a declining neighborhood that it is no humiliation to move into a better home on the approach of Negroes. What The News Leader is asking for may be nothing less than a changed state of mind. But that is not unattainable. If the rights and the wrongs of the present situation be frankly canvassed; if both races can be shown that there is a justice and an expediency to which whites and Negroes alike should hold. The News Leader does not believe that the extremists of either race will be able to lead the community astray. One very definite means to the desired end is for those to speak out who believe a better way of racial separation can be found than that of angrily enacting an unconstitutional ordinance. Whites and Negroes of moderate mind have deferred too much to excitable elements in their respective races. The whites have kept silent, in the main, because they had a sort of lurking dread that opposition to an impossible ordinance might be construed as racial disloyalty. Some of the Negroes have seemed to think that a conciliatory attitude might be regarded by the other Negroes as unwillingness to assert plain rights. It is time for every man who believes in fair play and in the right sort of racial separation by consent to let his voice be heard. ROANOKE, VA Rev.

If Your Hair is Dry and Wry Try Heart Heart Gall for all john versed done SERMONS WITHOUT WORDS There are serious all around us, just waiting to be sworn and they are so impressive—far more so in me than these famous subtly for fishing sage. I have seen the young mother putting her first jab in the breast for the very first time. No word to mar the second stiffness. Maybe just the fairest whisper of angel-wings that I am sure flattered near. Here was the chembat at the fountain—the down of creation—a picture worth the brush of a Murillo—of a Miller. And the sermon—a volume of eloquence—the sacred—the sublime. I watched the woodmen, hacking at the base of a mighty oak. Cheerily they sang, as chips leaped from their pygmy blows. Silently the forest giant stood, unconscious of the deepening wound, now perilously neon his heart . . . At last the crack of immediate doom—a swaying body—a thunderous crash to earth. The proud crest, from its heavenly attitude, now bent with soulless dust. A tower of liberty and freedom now supine—helpless—at the feet of its despoilers! Never to rise again, as truth crushed to earth may. Man, militant proponent of liberty and freedom, chief executioner of both! Left to his own devices, man becomes a destroyer of all about him, transforming the natural into the artificial, the sublime to the ridiculous. Left to his own devices, mind your last of all, he frames his own shackles, binds himself to eternal servitude. What a sermon for the seeing eye! Not all sermons are pleasing, especially those we see; but they are sermons, nevertheless, and, bristling with true testimony. To heed each faithful sermon is wise, whether seen or heard; is our duty to see and hear. L. J. HAYDEN 224 W. Broad St., Richmond, Va. DO YOU LOVE HEALTH? If so, call and see L. J.

Daubersville, Pa. --- The Richmond, Va., Times-Disch, in its issue of the 1st instant, oblished the following: Obscene Texts Are in the Bible—They're Lawful There may be obscene passages in the Bible, but the public reading of it does not constitute a violation of the law. Justice T. Gray Haddon died yesterday in Police Court. After Policeman G. W. Burruss accited that he had arrested G. A. Simmons, elderly Negro, for using language and, worse—from the officer's standpoint—refusing to deest when ordered by Burruss to do. Simmons unfolded a Bible, placed on the judge's desk, and said, "Your Honor, I took my test from the 22nd chapter of Revelations." The judge pondered over the good book, read the verses in question, and dismissed the case. "If a man reads a Bible and incease is there, I can't do anything about it," the court stated. "The chief of police, who issued the perjury, has discretion in the matter, but hands are died." The Police Court record for Tuesday, April 30, 1929, showed the fol- drawing entry: G. A. Simmons C. 66 Preacher West Indies 1013 Turpin St. On arrant. Did unlawfully be disor- ery in the public street. Wit. W. B. Burroughs, A. Bricker. The following is an extract from the records of the Hustings Court of its city: The grand jurors of the Commonwealth of Virginia in and for the city of the City of Richmond, duly commoned to and now attending said pourt on their oaths present, that WALTER B. BURROUGHS in the third day of August, in the par one thousand nine hundred and eighty-eight, at the said City of Richmond, being then and now armed with a deadly weapon, to-write pistol, in and upon one James marpe, unlawfully, injoniously, wil- ly, deliberately and premeditated, and of malice aforethought did and murder against the peace and dignity of the Commonwealth f Virginia. Witnesses sworn and sent by the court to the Grand Jury to give evi- ence: Lucy Freeman, Elijah Henderson, Thoming James, William Branch, Dr. E. T. Hill. W. A. Perkins, Mattie Gerrien. The trial was set for October 23, 1928, at which Officer Burroughs was acquitted of first degree murder. The Times-Dispatch misspelled the policeman's name. At the hearing of Rev. G. A. Simmons, who was arrested at Brook Avenue and Monroe Street, in the Police Court, the defended attorney, J. Thomas Hewin, appeared for Simmons with the announced satisfactory result. What would the late Rev. John Jasper have told about this action? He was noted for his arder and ability in preaching from the Book of Revelations. Of all the persons in the world, it seems to us that Burroughs was about the last one to specify just that passage of the Scriptures would be read to the colored folks of this city. Rev. Simmons was within his rights and he seems to have known his rights. We cannot for the life of us understand why Walter B. Burroughs, in view of his antipathy to colored folks, better known to him as "niggers," should have been assigned to a colored neighborhood, where he would come in direct contact with this class of people. It may have been that he could not stand the prickings of his own confidence. He could have moved on to the other place on his beat, especially in view of the fact that, as George Haddon says, the matter directly under the supervision of his own superior officer, Chief R. B. Jordan. We hope that it may be possible to transfer Officer Burroughs to an exclusive white neighborhood. But what about that 22nd chapter of Revelations? It is one of the most sublime parts of that Book of Books. Where it is: 1 And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was a tree of life, which bare twelve manners of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 And there shall be no more curse; but the throne of God and the Lamb shall be in it; and his shall serve him: 4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. 5 And there shall be no night here; and they need no candle, either light of the sun; for the Lord giveth them light; and they shall reign forever and ever. 6 And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true; and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent Go to Church on Sunday "So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Let us not therefore judge one another any more; but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother's way." Romans 14:12-13 Text selected by REV.

If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book. 19 And if any man shall take away the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the words, which are written in this book. 20 He that testifeth these things saith, Surely, I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. 21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

Subject, "A Good Soldier." Hearts were overflown. We were very glad to have Rev. Joseph Greene in our midst Sunday. Mrs. Lillian Wallace is very sick. Sunday School Lesson It is good for any discouraged person to spend time with Jeremiah. He had been given a mission. No matter how the people treated the messages that he was sent to deliver, he just came right back at them when least expected. Read the entire chapter and then keep right on through chapter ten; all forms the message which this man presented at this time. You will find that Jeremiah was ahead of his day in the use of parables and object lessons. People always pay more attention to an object or a story that relates to the subject matter then under consideration. Jeremiah was bold as an ambassador for he was not delivering his own message. In the opening verse today he makes it clear that he had a "word" to present from Jehovah. This should have been enough to make the people stop and listen. The place where the speaker took his stand is interesting. It was at the gate entering into the temple in Jerusalem. No longer were the people going therein to learn what they should do, that they might practise the truths in their lives. Now Jeremiah tries to make them think rightly about the temple as a place of worship and not regard it as a kind of a talisman which would be as a charm to enable them to go out and do just as they pleased. "Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. Yes. That is just what he had said before, but they had not paid any attention thereto, so they must be made to hear the same command again. With this summons there was a promise from Jehovah. If the people only obey, they could continue in Jerusalem and Judea and not be cared away into captivity, as had been the case with the Northern Ten Tribes. In that the people tried to drown out the voice of Jeremiah with their slovon. The temple of Jehovah," for the very walls had become a kind of fetish. That is the way the people of Ephesus did when they cried for a length of time. Cormoran's Diana of the Ephesians" at the time of Paul's plain preaching of pertinent matters. Jeremiah would also use repetition for the sake of emphasis. His word was "thoroughly" as he told them the extent to which they must give up their sins. These sins were named in part, and they have a social relationship. Wrong was being done to "his neighbor, the son of the fatherless, and the widow." God is always concerned for the defended man and He wants to make mankind love instead of hate one another. By means of varied kinds of communications this world is indeed a neighborhood, but it is far from being a brotherhood, such as our Jehovah desires. language is used in giving a list of customary sins. They were named these miserables, adulterers and makers of lies. There was only one way they could do such things. It was not by offering more sacrifices. They were reminded of the command that had been given when they were being called out of Egypt. It was "Hearken unto my voice." The call of Jeremiah was none other than a renewal of this Voice to the Throne. It was about the last call that could be given, and yet not too late. Right now they must "Amend your ways thoroughly." A urgent call, coupled with a blessed promise comes to every present. If at all when we will meet the conditions, and they are reasonable, will it be part in keeping the covenant. F. L.

Sunday Schools are judged by many standards. Commonly people form their opinion of a school from the building in which it is held, from its size, the order of its sessions, its organization, its popularity in the community or by a combination of some of these or similar standard. There is only one supreme test of a gool Sunday School and that is the personal test. The goal of our work is spiritual. The method is the evangelism of teaching. The measure of our success is in terms of Christian character. Any Sunday School is fulfilling its real purpose to the extent that it is succeeding in leading its members to live lives of obedience and loyalty to the will of tre Heavenly Father and of loving self-denying service to men. If it is doing this, it is a good school. If it is not succeeding in this no matter how big it may be how strong an organization it may possess, or how complete an equipment it may have, it is a failure.

OF COMMERCE BUILDING erying need of the industry, and this necessary defense against the major problem confronting auto owners should be of nation-wide scope. In the opinion of A B Allen automotive expert and general manager of the Safetitle System. 205 West Wacker drive, Chicago. We are starting in their evolution of auto theft in the United States." Mr. Allen declared in an address before an automotive meeting recently. "Seemingly, no type of car, no matter its age or condition, is immune from impending peril at the hands of automobile thieves. Every time a machine is parked, the owner is returning from his mission to engage in a furtive and discouraging search for his missing car. "The buyer of a second hand car, too, is at the mercy of these despicable thieves, and their methods of converting their body into cash not only are simple and efficient, but detectable only on rare occasions. Machines stolen today, often as, are resold in a few days to a trusting public Giant Federal Building NEW $17,000,000 DEPT. OF COMMERCE Closing of the largest stone contract in history has been announced by President A E Dickinson of the Indiana Limestone company. It is for 1,380 cars of stone to be used in the $17,000,000 Department of Commerce building at Washington. "The contract calls for 650,000 cubic fork," he said. "Work on the building, of which York and Sawyer are architects, will start immediately. Stone shipments begin in less than twenty days. Forty-five derricks will be required in setting the stone. The entire building must be completed in 1,00 calendar days. The largest previous stone contract, it is for the building for the New York Life building, New York, which was little more than half as large.

An adequate system of transfer, when selling a car, which would leave no doubt us to the authenticity of ownership upon the part of the seller, was advocated by Mr Allen. A nationwide system similar to that practiced by banks in the exchange of money for checks whereby all owners of automobiles in each state would be listed in an office in the state capital, along with complete data concerning each machine, to give a deterrent to theft. The Safetite System execu- ceeded. By this method a perfect chain of title and speedy transfer of title anywhere in the United States could thus be effected. The Safetteil System, according to some of the leading automotive authorities in the country, amply meets the requirements of an adequate system of transfer, which not only is an absolute protection to the owner, but a mighty check upon thieves who would resell their illy-goot loot. Motorists in all parts of the country who have lined themselves with the Safetteil System against the clever automobile thieves are enthusiastic about the newly established protective system. The Department of Commerce building, of which the Consolidated Engineering Company of Baltimore are contractors, and on which architects have been engaged for four years, will be 1,050 feet 'ong and 325 feet wide, will house from 5,000 to 7,000 workers, and will have a mile and a quarter of walt to be finished and courteous to the giant building covering three large blocks. The building in itself will be a busy, bustling city. "Besides the two large government contracts," said President Dickinson "two private commercial contracts recently were closed, one for 180 cars of stone for the new Pennsylvania Railway office building, Philadelphia, and one for 240 cars for the Chicago Merger, making the largest total volume in a like period in history. The outlook for building in general and for this company in particular is splendid."

Hat To lengthen the life of linens, re- member these rules for their care: Tablecloths and napkins of linen damask should te washed at home, if possible, Otherwise, select a re- Tiable laundry where cutting solu- tions are not used. New linens should be laundered before they are stored away. Then pack them in chests subjected to even temperature, slways avoiding the concentrated heat of radiators and pipes. Cedar chests are prob- ably the best containers. Linen enjoys exposure to sun and dew; in fact, no substitute compares with this means of Itteping them Beautifully white. It also helps to preserve whiteness to wrop linens in fast colored blue pageg when stor- ing them.

Segregation (Continued from page 1) exercise of the police power, regulating the use of property for the peace, morals, good order and general welfare of the community." He pointed out that whereas the Supreme Court in the Buchanan versus Warley case held that free use of property is a constitutional and that any legislation denies this right, the Court with the Conferent that it reversed itself later in the case of Euclid versus Amber, and decided that "the use of property could be regulated or restricted where the regulation or restriction had a rational relation to the general welfare of the community." "It is submitted," Mr. Cary continued, "that the Buchanan versus Warley case adopted laws taken by many State courts, narrowly limiting the use of councils, and under which view the Louisville ordinance was bound to be held uncon- ```markdown ``` stitutional, but that in the Euclid versus Ambler case, the Supreme Court adopted the 'broader view' of the power of councils, and under the broader view and its reasoning, the instant ordinance cannot be held unconstitutional." Claims Regulation Proper "In other words, the fourteenth amendment does not now protect the free use of property, and free use of property can now be regulated by councils where the regulation bears a rational relation to the general welfare of the community, without conflicting with the fourteenth amendment, under the decision of the Supreme Court in the Euclid versus Amber case. It was further contended that the Richmond ordinance presents an exaggeration of police power entirely different from that presented in the Louisville and New Orleans cases, in that the Richmond ordinance is based on race, whereas the other two were based on color. Scope is Limited Whereas Mr. Cohen declared that proponents of the Louisville ordinance said it was designed to promote racial purity. Mr. Cary quoted the Supreme Court's decision in the Louisville case as saying that the case did not "deal with an attempt to prohibit the amalgamation of the races." Mr. Cary qoted the supreme tribunal as saying also that the fourteenth amendment is not designed to interfere "with the power of the State, sometimes termed its police power, to prescribe regulations to promote the health, peace, morals, education and good order of the people." Mr. Cannon, who spoke much more briefly than Mr. Cary, said that the whole case comes down to the claim of the petitioners that they are being deprived of property without due process of law. He said that there are innumerable decisions holding that the police power extends to property. "The civilization of the world depends on the maintenance of the purity of the Caucasian race," Mr. Cannon concluded. The institution also had been voiced by Mr. Cary, who said that "where two completely diverse people become amalgamated, the new mixed race is always inferior to both The Planet will be sent to you for one year for $2.00; 3 months for 60 cents.
