Ques.-Is it legal for a Real Estate
broker to collect a commission from
me on a piece OF property which
bought through him when he has al
ready collected one commission from
the man for whom he sold the prop
erty?
Ans.--lt is principle OF law that
one cannot act as agent and represent
adverse interests of both parties in
such a transaction without the full
knowledge and consent OF both OF the
parties to the transaction. If you had
no knowledge that the Real Estate
broker in question was representing
the owner OF the property and was to
receive a commission from him for the
same and you relied upon the fact
that the Real Estate broker was act
ing as agent for you in procuring the
piece OF property, but in fact he was
also acting in the interest OF the own
er in selling the same and received a
commission for the same. then YOU
are not liable to the Real Estate
broker legally for the payment OF such
commission.

Today Gary is the home of twelve
enormous corporations producing steel
and its allied products. Millions OF
dollars have been invested by the
United States Steel Corporation.
Great steel mills have been built, and
the investment represented In them
makes Gary a permanent city.

Situated as It is on Lake Michigan,
Gary is not dependent upon the rail-

strikes could not embarass industry

Railroads put the city in touch with

The following editorial from the
Birmingham News illustrates clearly
why the Southerner loves the Uncle
Tom Leader and why we object to
him. Note the Southerners view of
Lynching.
1t IS becoming more and more evident
that in selecting DR.. Robert K. Motion
to succeed Booker T. Washington as
principal OF Tuskegee Institute, wise
choice was made. DIR. Motion seems
quite as capable of carrying on the
work as was his predecessor, and he is
imbued with the same sane and sensible
ideas OF his trusteeship as the real pre-
mier OF his race in the South At the
thirtieth Tnskegee negro conference,
held recently at the institute, part of
DR. Motions address was so sensible
that it is well worth repetition:
Whatever the difficulties. the South
offers TO my race great opportunities,
plenty OF work at reasonably good wages
and the best opportunity in America to
buy land and TO own their own homes"
he declared.
We have too long permitted our peo-
pie especially the farmers to be deceived
ard often defrauded by a certain class
OF so-callcd leaders who come to them
with some sure solutions" OF the race
problem. organizing some new move
ment. some semi-secret order or selling
stock with promise to make all the
colored people rich in a short while.
Too often the result is that these leaders
