LONG SENT 25 CENTS JOINING FEE Mrs. Estelle Jackson, newly elected president of the D. C. Howard University Alumni, and H. G. Heard, former member of the executive committee of the general association stated this week Dr. Howard H. Long, chairman of the general committee, only sent in 25 cents as his joining fee—hence his membership was rejected and he is not a member of the association. Mrs. Jackson said the constitution states that $1.25 is the membership fee. In a stormy session which lasted from 9 o'clock in the evening to 4 o'clock in the morning the General Alumni Association of Howard University ousted its secretary Michael (Casey) Jones, elected officers and an executive committee and over the protest of the local alumni association No.1 admitted the Howard Law Alumni Association, of Washington. Eugene Davidson, well known alumnus and itinerant writer, was elected general alumni secretary to succeed Jones. Davidson left early this week for New York in the interest of the association. The other candidate for the office was Archibald S. Pinkett, local secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Curtis Reelected The following general officers were elected: Dr. Maurice Curtis, Paterson NJ., president; Mrs. Alma J.

Scott will be sworn in Saturday, it was reliably stated to The Tribune this week. Robert Ogle, clerk to Judge James A. Cobb who was succeeded on the Municipal Court bench by Judge Scott. left Monday on a five-day leave. It is said that he will not resume his post when he returns. Officers in the Municipal Court told The Tribune last week that there were no vacancies in the court and there was no reason why Ogle should be dropped. Ogle has held the position for five years and was rated one of the most efficient clerks in the court. However, his former chief was a Republican so he is being forced out to make room for a Democrat. Phone Call Saves Man in Electric Chair ATLANTA. — Bud Jones, condemned to die in the electric chair at Milledgeville, was called back from the brink of eternity today by long-distance telephone. A moment before the condemned man was scheduled to be put to death at the State Prison Farm, Gov. Talmadge granted him a 20-day respite and a call was put in for the warden. "They were just putting him in the electric chair," Warden R. A. Lawrence told Carlton Mobley, the Governor's secretary. Jones was sentenced to die for the killing of Ed Morris of Pelham. The respite was granted to enable the Governor to study new evidence in the case Mobley said. --- The Tribune leads again.

YOUTH DAY AT VERMONT CHURCH The Department of Religious Education of Vermont Avenue Baptist Church sponsored a Youth Sunday and Children's Day program at the church. Sunday. D. C. YOUTH WINS FINAL RELEASE Six Years Walter Monroe, Washington youth who in a fight to obtain his freedom from a ten-year term in prison imposed on a charge of turning in false fire alarms, and ordered to be confined in the institute for Feebieminded. at Laurel, is now free again and in the custody of friends. In an order signed by Justice F. Dickerson Letts of the District Supreme Court. Monroe was discharged from further imprisonment and detention, Monday. Monroe filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus to test the legality of the sentence imposed upon him. The writ was granted by Justice Lettis, and Monroe was adjudged to be feeble-minded. Although the sentence was held illegal and excessive, Monroe continued to fight for permanent release through his attorney, Henry L. Johnson, Jr. Monroe's release is largely due to an examination made by Dr. John E. Lind senior medical officer, at Saint Elizabeth's Hospital. Dr. Lind's investigation resulted in an opinion that Monroe would be capable to manage his own affairs on the outside. Monroe had been a model prisoner since his incarceration and was a member of a prison governing board, composed of inmates who lay down rules for prisoners. Declared Feeble-Minded Since his conviction in 1929 Monroe has been serving time in (See MONROE. Page 2) Classes will be held on Tuesday and Thursday nights, beginning June 18, through July 2.

Warfield, Surgeon-in-Chief, Freedmen's Hospital, and Miss Mary Elizabeth Branch, president of Tillotson College, Austin, Texas, by President Mordecai Johnson at the sixty-sixth commencement of the university, Friday, in front of the new Frederick Douglass Memorial Hall. In addition, 277 graduates, including 55 doctors of medicine, were given degrees at the open-air exercises attended by nearly 4,000 persons. "You have been inspiring in your unswerving devotion," declared Dr. Johnson in conferring the degree on the hospital head. Dr. Warfield graduated from the Howard University Medical School in 1894; spent one year as an intern at Freedmen's Hospital; then became Second Assistant, then First Assistant, and since 1901 has been Surgeon-in-Chief. Miss Branch is a graduate of the University of Chicago and has had educational experience as on instructor in the Summer Junior College of Kansas City, Kansas; as Dean of Girls at the Vashion High School, St. Louis, Mo., and in 1930 was elected president of Tillotson College, Austin, Texas, following a long line of male presidents who had administered the affairs of that institution.

Elsewhere 7 Cents FREE SPEECH CHAMPIONED BY HOUSTON Education Board Member Challenges Rider Barring Teaching Communism A legislature provision carried in the Appropriation Bill by the U. S. Senate against payment of salary to any person who teaches or advocates communism was criticised by Charles H. Houston, member of the Board of Education, at a meeting of that body, Wednesday afternoon at Franklin Administration Building. Mr. Houston opposed the rider on the grounds that it stifled free speech and academic freedom. After the meeting Mr. Houston explained to reporters that it was better to have teachers' treat communism the same as any other form of government and said it was better for the student to get a true picture of communism from the class room than to get a distorted view from other sources. Mr. Houston felt that the personal views of a teacher should not be muzzled and stated there were criminal laws to take care of all persons who violated the laws of the country and a teacher should not be punished because he is a teacher, but because he has violated a law. Following a discussion of the proviso the board voted to have the corporation counsel interpret the rider before any action would be taken. The board was advised of the retirement of Miss Serena Spencer, a teacher in the Douglass-Simmons School. She will leave the school system on June 30. Miss Spencer, who lives at 979 Florida Avenue, Northwest, was appointed June 13. 1873. She has reached the retirement age of 62. Dr. Frank W. Ballou reported to the board that non-resident pupils cost the District taxpayers $250,000 a year and nothing can be done to force them to pay tuition until definite legislation is enacted.

First Sergeant Fred Hampton, 22-year-old glee club leader at the C.C.C. camp at Battery Cove, Alexandria, Va., was killed early Wednesday when his automobile, in collision with a truck, burst into flames on U.S. highway No. 1, between Fredericksburg and Ashland, Va. Officials of the National Capital Parks were informed his machine was hit by a truck and burst into flames, burning Hampton, who died from injuries and shock. He had been on leave in Norfolk, Va., and was on his way back to Alexandria. Capt. F. L. McFarren, commanding officer of the Battery Cova camp, said burial will be at Norfolk. He was to send a board of officers to investigate the accident this afternoon. Hampton, who was considered one of the most popular men at the camp, was born May 3, 1913, at Norfolk. Va. He was one of the first enrolles in the Civilian Conservation Corps. Park officials said that Hampton's death shocked his colleagues at the camp, and many of them were unable to speak because of erief. Well educated, Hampton was a graduate of Hampton Institute in Virginia and was well known in local educational circles, officials said. He had been heard frequently recently in national radio hookups, in musical programs, the park officials said, and he had appeared at the campfire meetings in Rock Creek Park to entertain the audiences. AMERICA GIVES LIBERIAN O.K. AMERICA GIVES LIBERIAN O.K. Accepting President Edward Barclay's plan to provide safeguards against the return of slavery in Liberia. Cordell Hull, Secretary of State, announced Wednesday that the United States formally recognized the present government of Liberia. Five years have elapsed since the severance of diplomatic relations with the government of Liberia, when its slave policies did not meet American approval. The Liberian government has been under close scrutiny and investigation by the League of Nations and other neutral investigators. The restoration of diplomatic relations between Liberia and the United States Government came in the wake of the approval of President Barclay's plan for fiscal and social reforms in the Liberian government. The plan accepted by the United States is similar to the former plan of the League of Nations, which was rejected by Liberia on the ground it was an invasion of its sovereign rights. In order to aid the Barclay plan in the financial rehabilitation of Liberia, the Firestone Rubber Company reduced the interest on a loan of $2,000,000 made the government in 1932 from 7 to 5 per cent, upon its pledge to resume payments on the loan, suspended in 1932. Legislation to safeguard the return of slavery or forced labor and to improve sanitary and living conditions is provided for under the Barclay plan. Florida Normal Commencement Exercises ST.

Sold for Junk, Takes Her Last Trip Former Excursion Steamer Purchased by Baltimore Junk Dealer for Lowly $950 Price; $800 Bid Was Tops at Recent Auction Sale Former Excursion Steamer Purchased by Baltimore Junk Dealer for Lowly $950 Price; $800 Bid Was Tops at Recent Auction Sale BY ARTHUR M. CARTER The Old E. Madison Hall once the pride of the L. Lawrence River and the only local excursion steamer, took its last trip down the historic waters. Tuesday. The old steamer was pulled away by the tugboat Locus Point. Ten days ago, the boat sold at private sale for the lowly price of $950—a figure which would make the late James Ottaway Holmes, deceased owner of the steamer, turn over in his earthly grave, if such were possible. Charles W. Joines, white. Baltimore junk dealer, bought the steamer and had it moved to the Monumental City wharf where it, probably is at this very minute, being battered for the junk pile. What a dismal finish for a grand old river steamer. Once the wa ter rendezvous for Washington's frolickers valued at nearly $40,000, and now, orily a hulk of its former self selling for junk at $50 less than a thousand berries. During its popularity, the E. Madison Hall was chartered by hundreds of Washington's clubs — from the lowly folk groups to the ultra social fraternities, and churches. The sale of the old side-wheeler was ordered by the District Supreme Court to settle the estate of the late Mr. Holmes. Just to keep the old boat docked at the wharf was costing the survivors of Mr. Holmes an average of $150 a month. Docked Since Fall The battered and beaten steamer had been docked at the wharf at Seventh and L Streets, Southwest since last Fall, unused and unwanted. Only nine months ago, the old side-wheel steamer churned the waters of the Potomac loaded with hundreds of excursionists and dancers en route to River View. Md., where they enjoyed the cool breezes of the summer resort. Several weeks ago, prospective river-boat purchasers gathered at the dock to bid at the auction salg of the old steamer, and ironically enough, the highest bidder voiced only $800. The boat had been appraised at $5,500 by the court so Ralph Weschler, white auctioneer, refused to sell at that price. Started at $50 As the gavyl rapped to begin the auctioneering, someone in the group bid $50. Imagine $50 for the E. Madison Hall, the steamer which, less than three years ago, was reconditioned at a cost of nearly $300,000. The bidding continued at $100. $300, and then $500. Mr. Adams suggested "Gen- Columbia Temple Elks Name Convention Delegates The Columbia Temple of Elks. No. 422, held its regular meeting. Monday, when officers were elected, Deputy Alethn B.

Brotherly love and the Christian spirit were put aside several man's ago when several of the officers and members charged the pastor, the Rev. Chester L. Smallwood with having too many wives. It was alleged that the Rev. Mr. Smallwood introduced a young girl to his congregation one Sunday morning as his wife. Members claimed he already had another mate and sought to oust the leader of the flock. It finally developed that one Sunday morning the Rev. Mr. Smallwood announced that he was moving from the church at Sixth and P Streets and would in the future hold services at 444 N Street Northwest. It was perfectly all right for him to move, said several of the officers, but he not only took half of the membership, but half of the church furniture. The faction left in the old building including Jefferson Yeldell, J. R. Simmons, J. W. Williams, Wesley Shorter, John H. Wise, James Duncan and Samuel Graham agreed to dismiss the suit against the pastor and give a quit claim deed for 90 chairs, one piano, all usher badges, all chair robes, one collection plate. The other side agreed to give up one table, one collection plate, 96 chairs and pay the sum of $258 over a period of months. Those on the preacher's side of the agreement were Lewis M. Miller, Precious Garrett, George Quarrels, William Tyler, and Marion Carrington. Peace and harmony once more reign over the New Hope Baptist Churches, incorporated and unencorporated. Col.

Here on the screen or the first time, is shown the value of sterilization and at the same time some of its most glaring faults as a measure for the betterment of the human race. Diane Sinclair is in the featured feminine role, and the supporting cast includes Sterling Holloway, Sarah Padden and Donald Douglas.

Later the guilty party confessed and the little heroine's good name was cleared. One of the most interesting features of the play was the oneing circus presented by the hero, Reddy, for the entertainmnt of Sunny upon he, return from the hospital.

He i being denied the Tight to a contract to play with the Albany club of the International Baseball League. It is through a ruling of Judge William G, Bramham. president of the National Association of Baseball Leagues, that the youthful southerner is being barred. The admission of Picts into the national game, the judge contends, will no* be to the best .rterest of the sport. To the ordinary 1eader, the casual observer, i might appear that the eminent Durham. N.C. jurist is making himself out to be the ex- emplification of the difference between a man and a narrow-minded. unthinking, blithering ofd fossil. He takes on the appeatance of the personification of ignorance ani meanness—the kind of guy who would cop the pieces off his father-in-law’s corps and sell them to the corner florist. He's the world’s meanest man, the type who'd offer another drink to the locked up imbiber; who'd raid a crap ame, lock up the players and pocket the dough: who'd snatch a bootlegcr, smash his wares and then slap him in the mouth because he couldn't sell him a half-pint, Folks are wondering just hoy: Judge Bramhar could arive at such & conclusion. Others are puzzled to explain how he could stick to such 8 contention in the face of all the criticism to which he has been sub- jected since he handed down his decision barring Pitts, ‘The judge himself seems to be the least concerned of a'l the perons involved in the mess. Like Nero. he “fiddles while Rome burns.” But the stage appears quite different when looked at “from the wings.” Like the plays and movies seldom present all the facts of the original story. the present Bramham-Pitts controversy holds an inter= esting sidetight behind the scenes In his statement explaining his action of barring the former prison inmate, the jurist said: “The matter create: an unpleasant situation.

Pompton Lakes. N.J.—The Joe Louis menage, now habitated at Dr. Bier's sumptuous training camp here where Joe is preparing for his joust with Prima Carmera on the evening of June 25 at Yankee Stadium, went into a huddle Saturday evening, and when they dispersed there was a rush for the telegraph room. The cause of the huddle and subsequent sending of wires was the threatening desertion of the camp by the sparring mates used by Louis in his preparation for the big fight. At that, one of the behemoths did stalk out of the camp, accompanied by a sore jaw swollen nose and a battered stomach Clark Quits Roy (Ace) Clark, the 268-pounder who towers six feet seven and three quarter inches, was the shock absorber who pulled up stakes and left the camp. And Ace made no bones about his reason for quitting. "I can't stan' what that guy puts on a man." the big Philadelphia declared as he was packing his bags for departure to his queen in Philly, to whom he is still Big Ace. "If I stay 'round here much longer I'll be walking on my heels," Ace pushed out between his puffed lips. "I've fought Carnera, boxed with Baer. Dempsey and other outstanding heavies, but Louis hits harder than any of 'em," Ace told the writer. Harris Makes Prediction Ceil Harris. the jovial 200-pounder, who has been on the canvas several times as the result of Louis's potent punching declared that he will be the only one of the original sparring mates in camp when Louis leaves for the fight with Carnera. This assertion by the big Chicagoan has caused the camp retinue to get down some wagers that Ceil will pass out of the picture. Leonard Dixon. the tallest man in the camp, who quotes Plato, Schopenhauer, Socrates and other philosophers, has been trying desperately since his arrival here to solve the mystery surrounding the terrific punching power in Louis's strong arms. Calls Joe "Greatest Puncher" "Louis is the greatest puncher I ever faced," the solemn and mild mannered Dixon declared in a discussion following his workout Saturday. "It is puzzling to me where he gets so much power. His punches are on you before you realize they have started." Tiger Henderson, one of the newcomers in camp, felt the sting of Louis's devastating punching power the first day he entered the ring with the Brown Bomber. Louis flattened him in the first round for the count. And now Henderson is a tamed house-tabby. Larry Johnson has also been boxing with Louis, but keeps well within his shell, while in the ring with the Michigan socker. John W. Roxborough and Julian A. Black, co-managers of Louis, have been busy wiring various sections of the country for sparring mates while Al Douglass, of New York, has been scouring the highways and byways in search of fistic timber to pit against the Detroit ring star.

(Special)—The first New York critic to look over Joe Luis in his workouts and place his stamp of approval on the Detroit sensation is Hype Igoe, able boxing expert of the New York Journal. Igoe has been in camp for the past ten days and has watched Joe in all his workouts. "I can't see how Louis can miss scoring an early knockout over Carrera," says Igoe.

Leading stage and radio stars from all over the East will be on hand, according to Harper. The quickest and most sensational knockout in an important heavyweight battle since Dempsey flattened Fred Fulton in a fraction more than 18 seconds at Harrison Field, N.J., nearly 17 years ago. The possibility of this amazing outcome of Louis's battle with the Italian at Yankee Stadium, New York, June 25 seems to be something more than a hunch with the followers of the Brown Bomber. "Don't be surprised if Louis stiffens Carnera with one punch," they will tell you. ... To veteran observers of things fisticic, such a possibility is by no means remote. Not where Joe Louis is concerned. The new ring idol, the most prodigious belter the ring has known since Dempsey ruled the heavyweight roost, is quite capable of topping any opponent even so massive a one as Carnera, with one clean shot. *** And Primo, for all of his vast bulk and tremendous strength, is not impervious to a convincing clout on the chin—as Max Baer so thoroughly demonstrated a year ago. True, the Italian has never been put down for the full count—but, Louis's cohorts will tell you he never has been up against such a terrific puncher as the Michigan thunder socket. *** Several scouts have been engaged by Messrs. Black and Roxborough, Louis's managers, to corral giant ring men to work with Louis. Joe has been putting on the pressure the past week and will continue to do until the few days before the battle. Ace Clark, who quit camp after receiving some vicious punches from Louis, says Joe's blows will mow down Carrera in three or four rounds.

Several years ago, the writer raised the question as to the most rational explanation for the dominance of Negro athletes in the broad jump and the sprints. Periodical and daily press sport commentators have in the recent weeks put forth many biological or sociological reasons for the outstanding record making exploits of Jesse Owens.

One cr more have suggested the following plausible explanation. Since Negro sprinters and jumpers have become national athletic heroes, colored boys in large numbers seek to emulate their feats, and the law of averages then accounts for the high selection in these two events. Twenty year ago, several commentators expressed the opinion that the late John Taylor, a dark brown athlete of the University of Pennsylvania and holder of the 400-yeard record and Olympic contender, was more Caucasian than Negro, because he had a well-bellied calf contour, and Negroes were socially spindly-shanked and at-footed. The sprint runs and even the broad jump require little equipment and little coaching. Running short distances and jumping are most natural and fundamental movements. But hurling, pole vaulting, weight and javelin throwing and other athletic forms require expenditure of money, facilities, and coaching.

Jack Johnson Picks Carnera to Beat Louis CHICAGO (ANP)—Jack Johnson thinks Primo Carrera will take Joe Louis in their encounter at the Yankee Stadium, June 25. Questioned Sunday evening, Johnson said: "I'm afraid Carrera will beat him. The Italian has too many natural advantages over Louis. He is bigger, stronger, has greater reach and more experience. I don't want him to beat him, but that's the way it looks to me." veriority Amus Among the athletes who have excelled as champions in a variety of sports are Cable of Harvard, in the hammer throw; Wood of Dartmouth, in skil-jumping; Brookins, of Iowa, Ward of Michigan, Besty of Michigan Normal in hurling; Williams, of Hampton at the Penn Relay games held the javelin record; Cornellus Johnson and Threadgill of Temple, the best high jumpers in the East this season; Earl Johnson and Gus Moore in their day, the best five and ten milers; Binga Dismond, the world's record in the 440, jointly with Meredith when Binga was at Chicago U., and now LuValle of U.

CHICAGO WOMAN SUES OFFICERS FOR $10,000 CHICAGO, Ill.—After six months' investigation by the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Mrs. Willie Mae Troutman of this city filed suit for $10,000 damages alleging that they were responsible for the death of her husband, James Troutman, who died in Joliet prison, June 29, 1934, from injuries he received prior to his commitment there. Says Foot Formation, Color Theory is All Wet; Cites Other Stars ordinating combinations. What About These? It is also true that when cross-breeding takes place, physiological and anatomical structures vary a do the psiysignomy, the pigmentation, and the hair; hence when athletes like Brookins, LuValle Moore, Courdin and Gordon, who approach white in color break records, anatomical differences fail to explain. The facts are that Negro athletes as Negro artists and intellectuals, can do well, and produce who excell all others, when given a fair chance and opportunity. Some of the explanation for supremacy of the track and field athlete may be in terms of emotional, social and psychological factors, but little will be found in racially peculiar anatomical differences.

However, John Toomgr, 13, of 323 T Street, representing the Howard Playground, came out the winner in three classes of competition. Toomer had to win in art construction and performance to take the cup offered by the District of Columbia Model Aircraft League. He ran a close second to John Goins, 12, of 2815 Georgia Avenue, also a member of the Howard Playground. Toomer received his cup award from Capt. Arthur Newman, senior judge of the tournament. Complete plans and running of the tournament were delegated to Mrs. M. J. Hawkins, of the public schools. Members of the playground department, headed by Lois Williams, director of Banneker Center, kept the groups fined up and ready to go into the various types of competition offered during the afternoon. Among the various types of kites entered were the boat kite by Ellen Early; the box kite of Edward Holloway; the Chinese kite of James Hardy, and the imp kite by David Luck was rather novel. Look for the safe driver rather than the fast driver. SPORT WORLD Nation's Press Finds Jess Owens Best News Copy of the Day Negro Athlete Made Toast of Country by Northern Papers; Dixie Journals Can't Take It, Just Filler Stuff for Their Inside Pages SIXTEEN CHICAGO (ANP)—United States newspapers were generally generous in their recognition of the achievements of Jesse Owens, Ohio State University sophomore who recently broke three world records in track and field and tied another. On the Saturday that Owens's performance took place, his feats were headlined in the sports sections of the newspapers of the North and West, and comment, editorial and otherwise, was lavish. But in the South, the southern sports editors, could not forget that Owens is a Negro. In the Birmingham News, Owens's deeds were recounted in a third of a column on page five of the sports sections. In the Atlanta Constitution, Owens could do no better than make page three. Featured stories were made of the exploits of white athletes whose deeds are being accomplished every day. Rice Saves South But the southerners, who would not give Owens a chance if he lived in the South, lacked the graciousness to "play up" this king of athletes because he is a Negro. Oddly enough, as southern born sports commentator, Grantland Rice, probably paid Owens his greatest tribute through a syndicated short paragraph. Rice wrote: "In the meanwhile, Jesse Owens, the Buckeye blizzard, wrote more track history in one day than any other athlete ever wrote in a lifetime. To set three world records and tie another is the Mt. Everest of sporting peaks. Here's your next Olympic headline." But in southern newspapers, Owens is only filler copy on page 5.

Wis. who criticized the policy of matching Negro boxers against the Italians in the international tournament, in a letter to a local white dafy has aroused the wrath of both white and colored fans who take his stand as an affront to true Americanism... He, implied in his letter that a lot of the Italians had never seen a colored boy before and that they were whipped before they climbed through the rones... Most of the boys hereabouts take the attitude that Father Doyle is showing a decidedly Irish trait in bringing up the racial superiority or inferiority angle at this instance... To me he only sticks his foot deeper in the mud by coming right out and saying that Negroes are superior to whites.

Tuskegee Coach Expects Strong Grid Team TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala.—Barring unforeseen injuries, Tuskegee's 1935 Golden Tigers, should be one of the strongest teams that has ever been developed at the Institute since Cleve L. Abbott, head coach, docked at O. D. Hall Terminal one September day in 1923. Capt. Henry V. Adams, the Tiger punter, will be lost from the line by reason of graduation, but the crafty Tiger Mentor has a man in waiting to step into the place made vacant by Adams' graduation. If no other great losses are sustained, it is the prediction of Coach Abbott that the Tiger fans may expect to see one of the fastest moving and most colorful teams that he has coached since 1927.

LOW wheels, larger tires, and the high speeds of today make blowout protection in your tires vital to your safety as never before. Are you accepting exaggerated and unsupported advertising and sales claims or are you accepting the judgment of men who risk their lives on their tires and know from experience the tire that gives them the greatest blowout protection? Thirty-three race drivers and their mechanics lined up for the dangerous, gruelling grind of the 500-Mile Race at the Indianapolis Speedway May 30th. Firestone Tires were purchased and used on every one of the thirty-three cars. Kelly Petillo won the race at an average speed of 106 miles per hour. Wilbur Shaw was second, flashing across the finish line just behind the winner. Both drivers broke the track record without tire trouble. In fact, not one of the thirty-three drivers had tire trouble of any kind. For sixteen consecutive years Firestone Tires have been on the winning car. The race this year simply emphasizes again the undisputed evidence that Firestone Gum-Dipped Tires have the greatest stamina and blowout protection. Gum-Dipping is one of the outstanding reasons why Firestone Tires give such amazing performance. By this process every cotton cord is soaked and every strand is insulated with pure liquid rubber, preventing internal friction and heat, the main cause of blowouts. Gum-Dipping is a patented extra process not used in any other make of tire. When you consider that there were 882,000 automobile accidents in the United States last year, and of these, 43,000 Firestone 1 Leading University tests show Firestone Tires stop your car 15 to 25% quicker. 2 Gum-Dipped cords give greater blowout protection.

Presence of colored citizens on a jury here will mark the first time since Readjuster days in Virginia that colored persons have been recognized for such service in Loudoun. The recent dictum of the United States Supreme Court is guiding the action of Judge Alexander and other Virginia judges in cailing colored persons for jury service.

The bill now awaits the signature of the President as it had already been passed by the Senate. The bill which proposes to place the office of the recorder of deeds on a self-sustaining basis, increases the cost of each certificate and seal from 25 to 50 cents, and the fee for filing and indexing, or for making a certified copy of any instrument containing 200 words or less from 50 cents to $1.50. Dr. William J. Thompkins, recorder of deeds, has played an important role in the passage of the bill. In a recent report submitted to the District Commissioners, Dr. Thompkins recommended a suitable building to house the office of the recorder of deeds. Under a proposed increase of fees. Dr. Thompkins stated that the cost of the building could be liquidated in a little more than three years. With the increase in fees, it is probable that a new building may be expected.

Advertstag rates furvished oo reanert WEEK ENDING JUNE 15, 1935 Commencement Day This is the gladsome season when the sweet girl graduate and the dignified upper-classman come into their own. At home the family has for weeks made ready to attend the ceremonies that pro- claim the erstwhile student now a fin. ished product of advanced and intensive scholastic methods—and definitely apart from the common herd. Mother, who has toiled and slaved, “worked her fingers to the hone,” big and little sisters and brothers who have (not always willingly) “done without” father, who, as always, has paid the freight—all these, their woes forgotten, greet the conquering hero and heroine with shouts and tears of joy. The closing of a school career, called with happy appropriateness, “com. mencement,” ir the light of present-day events, takes on new and added signifi. cance, Anew the discussion will break out and rise to fever heat, “Does a col- lege education pay?” Will the theories and theorems, the graphs, the charts, the fine spun concepts of business ad_ ministration. fit the graduate for the stern realities, the bitter combats of this practical, prosaic day and genera- tion? We hear of honor men with hard_ earned and high degrees, letter men, heroes of athletic contests, well-loved fellows whom class prophets placed high in the halls of future fame—riding the rails, tramping the roads, hitch. hiking, aimlessly seeking not fame or honor, but only a hand-out meal, some place—any place, to lay the weary head. The tendency to discredit the practi. cal value of college training has never been more manifest than today. The aggregation of super-scholars called in to advise the President on national re- covery, bracketed in thinly disguised contempt as the “Brain Trust,” were men high in the ranks of academic re- search—deans and full-time professors in our great universities—so highly rated that bills prepared by them to set up the long list of alphabetical agencies and administrations, were rushed through both houses of Congress, enact- ed into laws without even the precau_ tion of reading the bills, much less an attempt to analyze and understand them. So now when the Supreme Court has taken three successive pot-shots at the once haughty and all-powerful Blue Eagle and declared NRA void and of no effect, the scoffers at the effective- ness of college training say, “I told you 50.” So, what? Will all of this discourage the ever-swelling crowd of matriculants, the seekers of knowledge? We rejoice that it ought not and will not. Next year, as always, an army of boys and girls will enter college and university to devote four years in preparation for their own commencement day. The Tribune salutes the graduates of today and bespeaks for them the frui- tion of their fondest hopes and dreams. In the language of an eminent com- mencement orator: “ ... to wish you each and all a full complement of pain, the chance to exercise your divinely be- stowed power of renunciation, to hope that all your days may not be fair, that you strive to be men with hands of steel and hearts thet understand.” pat If we would discard all unnecessary things we would be at ease, even in the There’s always a catch to it. But suppose we're talking of fishing? Us- ually there’s no catch to that! ——___—_o—___ God Save the Race The most disgusting meeting it has been our lot to attend was held ironi- cally enough in the Andrew Rankin Chapel on the campus of Howard Uni- versity last Thursday evening when the General Alumni Association held its annual meeting. The meeting lasted from early even- ing until after 4 a.m. the next day. Despite the fact that Negroes are the first ones to take exception to pictures and books that show up the race in a small light they are the ones to furnish the material for such exhibits. Here was a group of so-called intel_ lectuals representing the largest educa_ tional institution among Negroes in the world. Petty wrangling. personal at- tacks Speeiending consumed the whole eight hours of the session. The association ae into two separate camps. One bitterly opposing the other. As a result nothing was and nothing el unless was to widen the breach between the factions. In this group wes the alleged best brains of | STA ee ae aes: cl differences that might have easily been not brough up at all. The only redeeming feature of the whole affair was the way in which Dr. Maurice Curtis, president, presided— his wonderful tact and his ability to keep the “delegates” from mixing it up ‘in physcal encounter. If this is a samole of Negro leadership—God alone can save the race—G.

No liberal-minded American would maintain that there should not be provided open foram for the discussion of relative and rival claims of different forms of political and economic institutions. But no sensible American. 1 ‘think, would maintain that such forums should be held under the aegis of tax-supported in- stitutions.

An American Negro ¥ Now they cannot tell it to the marines, nor charge it against them either. The Negroes who rule Haiti. are suppressing the jiberties of the own people. President Stenio Vincent is a Fascist dictator in miniture: as Mussolini and Hitler break treaties and violate “the law ‘of nations,” so also does Vincent violate the constitution and the laws of his country. ‘In Haiti recently I was accorded more cour: tesy than I could claim, by the President and his supporters,—which could not blind me to the terror which I saw threatening the Inde- pendent leaders and thinkers who happen to be opposed to the administration's policies and to Vincent's ambition to stay in power, in spite of the constitution. Since returning to the United States I have been receiving letters from eminent Haitian people, which they are afraid to send through the mails of their country, lest their personal and constitutional rights be violated by the minions of the President and their private cor- respondence be confiscated and used against them. Some of these men are among the high- est elective officials of the country. None of the communications received would be trer- sonable in any state except dictatorships like Germany and Haiti. In no civilized court of a free people could any of these letters be used against the writ- ers, Yet they have deemed it advisable, in most cases, to send these letters by messen- gers, when some patriotic and trustworthy Haitian was making a journey to New York. It is aad commentary that after a twenty: year fight to “restore the liberty” of the Hai- tian people, we see that under the colored ruler which gf have set over themselves, they have less freedom cf sree than they had under the American marines. They dare not speak out now as they spoke out against the “Occupation.” We knew and published the names of those who opposed the continued presence of the United States armed forces. but I dare not publish the names of the writ- ers of these simple letters. lest I expose them to ruin at the hands of the man whom they elected chief executive for a six-year term five years ago. Recently some of these men have heard, per- haps through returning visitors, that the Crisis magazine will carry an article of present Hai- tian polities in its June issue. And following are two paragraphs from a letter just receiv- ed from eminent Haitian patriots: “,...Our situation is growing worse. ‘We have no more Press or Legislative Chambers which can control the ‘Aaminis- tration. “We are waiting for your contribution to the June Crisis issue. We hope it will reach us although the Post Office here is not sure.” High officials of government cannot trust private communications to the mails of their country, and may be attacked for even daring to possess and read criticisms against the ad- ministration from foreign sources. And that reminds me of something which I haye not told before: Before going to Haiti I directed that my mail be sent in care of President Vir cent, at the palace. When I received one long and important-lookipg envelope from the States, it had been opened,—doubtless “by mistake,” but the young lady secretary to the President delivered that parcel to me with manifest embarrassment and excessive polite- ness, and offered no explanation. I asked none- For nearly one hundred and fifty years Hat tians have made a glorious fight for their freedom against enemies without and for their liberties against tyrants within. It seems that they must still fight. Evident'y liberty and freedom are not something that you achieve, but something that you must be al- ways achieving. It ig not a condition. It is # process On the public square hard by the palace stands an iron statue of Dessalines. Dessaline, the Terrible, was truly the achiever of Haitian liberty, as Toussaint, the Great, was its conceiver. That iron statue of Des" salines. the unruly slave. the unconquerable fugitive, and finally the ruthless general and emperor, faces the Palace and holds in its hand an uplifted sword. iteie te ce Our Readers’ Opini eaders Upinions Readers of The Tribune are requested te send te Wetuerr expressing thelr opinions op wubjects of general Interest.

There are many colored baseball players superior to Pitts who have never seen the in- side of a penitentiary Yet, because of their color, and despite the fact that they are Amer: ican citizens in good standing, they are barred from organized baseball, The sports public and sports writers make no howl about that. ‘The inevitable conclusion is that in the Unit- ed States a white ex-convict has greater op- portunities than Jesse Owens.

He was. illegitimate and, in the eyes of his Zather: worse than this, a Negro in looks and bearing. Both father and mother hated the child, the one because it hurt his Spanish pride to have for a son a Ne- kro, and the other becuse the boy's color barred any chance of her attaining an honored po- sition as the ecknowted wife of the Spaniard. After the birth of their sec- ond child, a daughter, Don Juan deserted Anna, leaving her to shift for herself and her two children as best. she could. Martin's childhood wag mark- ed especially by an amazing love and pity for the poor, of which there were many in the wealthy but corrupt Capits! of Peru. Sent on an errand, al- most inevitably he would meet someone just a little more mis- erable than himself: The boy's heart, like the youthful St. Bridget’s, would go out to the unfortunate, and with it Anna’s pocketbook!’ His mother’s pen- nies wauld be handed over with lavish indifference. Poor Anna would greet him with screams and heavy blows, but she never could cure the boy of his chari- table tendencies. At the age of twelve, Martin went to work #s an apprentice to a barber surgeon, where he learned the art of healing as it was practiced in those days. He pursued his studies even fur- ther, for he recognized in medi- cine, not only a Weapon agaist physical disease, but a key to open the soul to the saving grace of God. Eventually, when he was twenty-two, at the advice of his confessor, Martin de Porres ap- vied to the Dominican Convent of the Rosary in Lima for ad- mission as an Oblate or Terti- ary, It was not until nine years Inter that he finally put on the capuce of a First Order lay brother, and then only because obliged to do so out of obedi- ence. ‘Then began an organized Apostolate among the unfor- tunate whieh was truly extra- ordinary This poor depised friar extended his charity to everyone.

THOMAS Unless the entire procession keeps step to the tempo of the leading band, parts of the parade must lag- Any one who has wateb- ed a long parade has seen just why human relations demand under- standing, tolerance, and education. Failure to take the attitudes which flow from such conditions prece: dent to forming opinions ss to prog- ‘ress, must produce a variety of criticism and distutes. One people is called backward, one group is called nferior, one individual is condemned, because few people watching the procession see both its movements and human rela- tions in general. Even today, men over the world are as far behind the first line of social advance #s men have been at any time ‘in all human history. yet, humanity marches on. There are sections of the parsde of hu- man relations that move in perfect unison, others straggle, others show depleted ranks, and’still oth: ers merely keep the procession in sight. Early thinkers were heard but by a select few. Exry city states were surrounded by barbar- ians. Palaces stood among huts. ‘Cathedrals were erected amidst ‘squalor.

His energy was limitless. He was particularly kind to animals, who in their turn seemed to recognize him as their friend and protector. Martin de Porres became somewhst of an institution in Lima. Everybody knew him, all were acquainted with his work. ‘This base-born son of a Panama ‘Negro woman numbered among his friends, Don Felix Vega, Archbishop of Mexico and Don Petro de Ortega, the future Bishop of Cuzco. With all his activity this hum- ble Dominican lay brother spent seven hours each day in prayer and contemplation before his tabernacled King. Mary. the King’s Mother, received from Martin a tender affection which was truly childlike in its sim- plicity. One day the Father Procura- tor of the Convent saw the lay brother carrying a_brsnd new habit to his cell. “What are you going to do with that?” asked the priest. “It’s the habit,” re- plied Brother Martin, “in which I shall be buried!” The predic- tion ws only too true. Several days later he was stricken down by fever, and after a short but severe illness Martin de Porres surrendered his pure soul to the God Whom he had loved and served so faithfully. It was the third of November, 1639, the seventieth yesr of his life. Many miracles followed in quick succession. The King of Spain, the Archbishop of Lima, and members of the Dominican Order, ail sent to Rome asking for the beatification of Martin de Porres. The Church, always yery careful and slow to move in these matters. took up the cause and began a long tireless investigation. It was not until one hundred and ninety-seven years after his death, on March 19, 1836, that Pope Gregory XVI solemnly declared him a Blessed. The next ep is canoniza- tion. The new Postulator Gen- eral of the Dominicans, Father Lenzetti, O.P., is zealously working on the cxuze, and what is most important of all. pray- ers are being offered all over the world for his canonization. A popular movement has re- cently started in the United States in his favor. An English translation of Stanislaus Fu- met’s recent French work, “The Life of Blessed Martin de Por- res,” is about to be published. However, one more question remaing unanswered. What a- shout the American Negro Catholics? Are they to remain uninterested? Martin de Por- rés_ is, theirs. Perhaps the in- dividual Negro may not be able to do much for the cause in a material way, but he can beg God to give the Church this Ne- gro, Martin de Porres, Next year will mark the first centenary of his beatification, while the third centenary of Blessed Martin’s death is to be eetebrsted in 1939.

Fighting Unemployment By Developing Hobbies \ By THOMAS FE. BRIER Ci it Everywhere there is an amateur contest whether it is the stage, radio, races, boxing, mechanical models of any sort, story writing, painting or contest’ of any kind, it is a stimulant to undeveloped hob- bies. The Government has many workers on such projects, develop- ing people who sooner or later many become self-supporting. Have you ever walked up to a man working at a trade, and ask him how did he learn _ his trade? Many times, I hitve done just that thing and in reply I re- ceived the ansWer, “just picked it oe Just picked it up means more than what the words imply. You would not expect to walk down a street and “just pick up a certain trade,” would you? Neither would I. But, I would expect to acquire @ trade by application of exerting energy, and ideas of the trade in question. I’ would, at every spare moment, do some work pions: the line of the trade I like, This desire to do a kind of work in spare mo- ments is termed a hobby. Hobbies increase one's _know- ledge and hands in developing something useful, This usefulness may or may not be profitable, depending upon the hobby. Many hobbies have be- come profitable trades. * As a rice, we do not develop hobbies. We do not value spare time. We never think of what developments may be the outcome of mete hobbies. We never expect to profit from the extra hours of recreation, handicraft or spare time jobs. These extra time re- habilitation projects prove profit- able in mind, ‘spirit’ and — body. Hobbies may be the means of sub- sisteuce in life. They may, in the case of sports, become the life work of a person. They may be- come the cause of developing a great industry, which will absorb @ great number of unemployed. We should develop our uncover- ed talents. We have buried them too deep in our minds and left them to rot. If we are to make the came or greater progress than our par- ents made in the last seventy years, we must develop new and better industries. Industries can only be formed by careful development of some trade. A trade doesn't, in every respect metn work of @ mechani. cal nature, as masonary, carpen- try, but any work where a certain ‘skill oy technique is used is a trade.

(ANP)— Final disposition of the Monrovia School Case in Which colored chil- dren Were forced to attend a school beset with danger after the recent earthquake and their parents a@r- rested for finally refusing to re- turn them to the school, was made this week when Superior Judge Parker Wood issued a writ of man- date ordering the bord of trus- tees of the school district either to strengthen the school or. trans- fer its students to other schools. Most of the white children at- tending the school have already been transferred. Colored children were not sent elsewhere because of “fear of invading ‘white’ districts.” Attorney Thomas L, Griffith. le- gst advisor for the N.A.A.C.P. when the case was finally brought before that organization for inves- tigation, followed it through an extended legal fight to victory.

And so when they meet for bridge in Burrrville, or Deanwood or Capital Heights, the husband who best can spare the time, stops his afternoon duties and drives them out to their meeting place. That's exactly what happened last Saturday. Kind Mr. H. drove them out to Deanwood. Good Mr. G, was to come out and get them. The card games were over, the prizes already awarded. the chicken salad, asparagus tips, potato chips, asparagus rolls and chiffon pineapple pie had all been hearty eaten. And 'twas hours past the gong-home time. But Mr. G. had not shown up. Mrs. G. became anxious, fearing her husband was lost in the steady downpour that be-darkened that Saturday night.

Mr. K. and good Mr. J. were not at home when their poor wives called. There wasn't a dollar among the matrons, so a taxi was out of the question. Mr. G. finally found his way and Mr. C. patched up his tire and the matrons soon got home.

The terms of the executive order provide that persons registered with the United States Employment Service and on public relief in May will first be placed on jobs. As occupational lists are exhausted those who become eligible for public relief after May will be taken care of. The number of cases on the District relief rolls in May was 20,482, the Public Assistance Division reported to Elwood Street, Director of Public Welfare. Of this number, 4,723 cases were classified as "unemployable." leaving 15,759 cases in which there was a person able to work. Of the 15,759 employable cases, approximately 11,347 are colored. This estimate was made on the basis of approximately 72 per cent of the relief load being colored. Only one member of a family group may be employed in the works program, except as specifically authorized by the Works Progress Administration. Workers will be employed on a salary basis with hours of work in excess of 8 per day or 40 per week. This rule does not apply to persons employed on PWA propects. Monthly earnings for unskilled workers will be around $45; for semi-skilled, $58; for skilled, $72; for professional and technical $79. The President's executive order specifically prohibits discrimination as follows: "Section 7. Persons who are certified for assignment to work on projects shall be accepted or rejected by those having responsibility for the management of such employment solely on the basis of JOHN B. HARRIS JAMES T. CARTER, of Richmond, who has been appointed vice supreme master of the National Ideal Benefit Society. The appointment was announced by Supreme Master Benjamin W.

"and we will settle them." Thus for the first time, in language clear and unmistakable in meaning, the Italian dictator has revealed his plans and purposes in East Africa more fully than ever before. Up to last Saturday much of the great mass of news items, articles, and editorials on the African situation was based on conjectures derived from a general understanding of the political characteristics of Mussolini, and his passionate dreams of a new Roman empire that will equal if not surpass the ancient glory of Rome. Knowing of this ambition, the press of the world has not hesitated to connect it with the African venture. But Il Duce, chief braggart of Europe that he is nevertheless played the role of diplomat as long as he could, giving broad hints, but officially stating that the vast movements of Italian troops to East Africa was for the protection of the borders between Eritrea. Italian Somaliland and Ethiopia. Mussolini Cunning After the soldiers were stationed in the Italian colonies by the thousands, and as others poured in, it occurred to Il Duce that he might change the rapidly rising world opinion against him by changing his mission to one of civilization and mercy. He knew his history. He recalled all the great white empires of the world came into being by carrying the "light of Christianity and civilization" to the darker peoples of the earth. Il Duce could not see why he should not be permitted to carry a little light to this dark kingdom in 1955, for a black empire so backward that it destroyed the royal army of Italy in 1896 and left 7,300 of her soldiers dead on the battlefield of Adowa. while capturing 2,000 more, must indeed the "old account" he is determined to settle. Burning Memories The Italianes have never forgotten this defeat. In fact they could not forget it if they would for II Duce has from the beginning promised them new and untold glories in his great empire of the future. The economic pressure due to unemployment throughout it a l y makes 1935 an opportune time to fulfill some of these long standing Facist promises if II Duce is to continue II Duce. In his plans for an Italian empire Mussolini almost naturally turned to Ethiopia. It is an African kingdom and, being African, the conquest would not raise resentment. Second, this black empire already bordering on Italian possessions, is one of the very richest countries in the world; and finally the everlasting shame of having been beaten by a Negro people could be washed away by the flood of glory as the powerful army of Italy sweeps across the Ethiopian planes on to Addis Ababa. Sets Stage The world understands perfectly well that these frequent attacks of A. "If your dinner is to be a success one of the first and most important essentials is to be exceedingly careful to select dairy products of the highest possible standard of quality. "The best grade of Butter, Eggs and Milk add but little to the initial cost but are all important in the final result." Products from the CHESTNUT FARMS CHEVY CHASE DAIRY have met every requirement for more than a THIRD OF A CENTURY WEEK ENDING JUNE 15.1935 Address at on in Africa purpose the Abyssinians upon the innocent italian soldiers in Eritrea have been played up to set the stage and world opinion for what has been carefully planned to follow. Probably some of these "attacks" never even occurred at all. In the meantime the Italian plans for war are moving steadily and systematically forward. There has been no halts in these plans. The League of Nations has averted nothing. It has not even caused any delay in proposed military operations as is frequently stated. Italy did not have to be told to wait. She did not plan to do otherwise. Italy knows as much about the rainy season in Africa as any other nation. She did not plan to strike at once, but rather to continue to mass troops in her colonies so that when the time is ripe she will have there an invincible, modern army. Against these preparations for war the press of the world has thundered and various public men have been unsparing in their condemnation of the Italian dictator. The League of Nations, egged on by the smaller nations, has unwillingly made a gesture favorable to Ethiopia. World opinion, until critically analyzed, would seem to be on the side of the African empire. But the white nations are not at all interested in protecting the sovereignty of the land of Haile Selassie, or in any way maintaining the independence of that country. Their chief concern is to check too much Italian influence in Africa. Great Britain in condemning the proposed war, is speaking not in the interest of Ethiopia, but Britain is speaking for Britain. The man at Number Ten Downing Street, sees a threat to British colonial power in any Italian expansion in Africa. And this "threat" is usually nothing more nor less than pure, ordinary jealousy. Fear Japan. Germany The English diplomats look far ahead and try to divine consequences not at first obvious. Among stand in need of Nordic regeneration. It was this terrible defeat of the Italian army by the great Menelik that Mussolini today refers to as these is the possibility of a general Negro uprising in other colonies, leading to a general race war with Japan on the side of the Africans; and the likelihood that Germany would further complicate the situation by seizing her former colonies. The presence of German and Japanese army officers as instructors in the Ethiopian army is not calculated to reduce these fears. Mussolini, on the other hand, speaking before 20,000 soldiers of his Sahara Division, declared boldly that the war against Ethiopia would be prosecuted "without taking any account of what is said across the frontier." Plainly avowing his intention to add Abyssinia to Italy. It Duce declared "We will imitate to the letter those who try to teach us a lesson." "They demonstrated" he went on significantly "that when they were creating an empire . . . they never took into consideration world opinion." The Peace Commissioners, appointed at the instance of the League of Nations, will have about as much effect on the course of events as would a committee appointed on this side by Podunk Lodge. Abyssinia No Asleep Abyssinia is not sleeping. And she is not merely appealing to the League; but under the greatest difficulties that ever faced a nation, she is preparing for war Surrounded by European powers who have agreed to prevent the importation of modern arms across their borders, the Ethiopia emperor with all his wealth, has been unable to purchase modern rifles, machine guns, air craft and various other types of military equipment. Recently, however, this European agreement not to sell arms to Abyssinia seems to have broken down at several points, for in recent months all kinds of the latest modern arms have been shipped into Ethiopia through either the French or British colonies or both.

Emperor Haile Selassie and his empress, Mannin Mallall Assfau, both of whom trace their ancestries back to tribes ruled by the Queen of Sheba of Biblical fame, looked with intense interest upon the proceedings at Geneva, Switzerland, where the League of Nastions, last week, led mainly by Great Britian, gained from the militaristic Benito Mussolini an agreement that he would enter into arbitration plans with Ethiopia on Italo-Ethiopia relations.

The Ethiopian warriors with their long flowing white robes reminiscent of the days of the prophets are being replaced by khaki clad soldiers. Selassie Acta The emperor is not only reforming his army but he is also carrying forward various social reforms throughout the empire. Slavery has been abolished and a school system is being developed. The rich mineral resources of the country are being studied by experts with a view to their development by the Abyssinians themselves. But the country is so hemmed in on all sides that it can never realize the social and economic development necessary for a modern nation. She has no outlet for commerce and trade. She can not reach the outside world except through the grace of England, France, and Italy. She is separated from the Red Sea on the north by Italian Eritrea and French Somaliland, and the Indian Ocean by British Somaliland and Italian Somaliland. On the west there is the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan and her southern borders face Uganda and Kenya. Abyssinia at Crossroads So the last black empire in Africa, surrounded by greedy white neighbors, is at the crossroads of her existence. The future of the nation will depend not only on its ability to withstand the certain attacks of the Italian powerful war machine, but her future security will depend upon her ability to drive Italy out of Africa and to extend the Abyssinian border to the sea. This should be the objective, and behind such a program the active support of colored people in the various countries of the world should be enlisted. For if the braggarte of Europe can sweep the last Negro empire from Africa with the colored people of the world merely looking on as interested or disinterested spectators, then they can never aspire to an equal place either among the nations of the earth or in the consideration of mankind generally. Abyssinia should be helped with both men and money.

(By Fritz Cansler for ANP)—With a number of cities in Colorado fighting the menace of floods and high water the loss suffered by members of the race has not yet been estimated. Colorado Springs with a Negro population of close to 1,000 is the only place damaged in which any considerable numbers of Negroes live. It is thought that adequate relief has been provided for all citizens by the government and state agencies now at work. The damage at Pueblo, which also has a considerable colored population, was not as extensive as in the smaller towns due to provisions which were made following the disastrous flood of fifteen years ago. Due to the lack of economic optimum, the average Colorado and Nebraska small town numbers only a few families of the race in its population. The Iron Whims of the Weather No matter how other things go up or down, there is always a bumper crop of weather. The milkman must take it as it comes. He neither asks nor gets any favors from the weather man. Blow it hot or cold, the world wants its milk when it wants it. The cows are in the country. The consumer is in the town. The milkman's business is to act as a dependable go-between to link supply and demand. Let the mercury soar and the consumption of milk responds sympathetically. Fountains do a rushing business in refreshing drinks. Let the thermometer do a nosedive, and demand tapers off quickly. There is no way to throw a cow out of gear once she gets going on the job of turning her food into milk She has a single track mind. She doesn't do so well under extreme heat or extreme cold. How to match his service with the fickleness of the weather—and the consequent variations in the wants of the consumer—is a problem in itself. The milkman must have the right answer every day. It may be that the ways of the weather are only nature's whims. But as every milkman knows, they are iron whims. Harry M.
