"ccept TIC service Of Il complaint in
= breach o. promise action, which tho

brought against young Whitney.
Motion OF the defendants attorney,
requesting delay until documentary
evidence could be secured, was grant
ed, Judge Borst stating that he would
receive afiidavits and other documents
at any time before September 8. Mean
, while, he said he would reserve deci-
! sion on motion of Miss Fontains
counsel. Charles Firestone OF New
York. representing Miss Fontain. told
reporters his client asks $1.000,000 on

appearing for the defendant, as q
"blackmailing plot" In an opposing
motion he requested the court to de-
lay decision until opportunity could be
given 'Whitney's attorneys to secure
afidavits from persons living in Texas,
where he said, Miss Fontain formerly
resided. Explaining his request, Mr.
Lcary said that the ahldavits were
purportcd to show the reputation and
method Of living of Miss Fontain
while she was in Texas, adding that he
also desired to offer documentary
proof that the dancer had been mar
ricd while there and that the mar
riage had been annulled.
Mr.. Frcstoen said the action was
begun a year ago, but had not been
made public because of the prominence
of tilc defendant. Negotiations for
settlement proving unavailing, he de-
clarcd, 1t was decided Thursday to

NEGRO EDUCATIONAL
CONFERENCE dec. "a
(By Associated Press)

Louisville, KY, Dec. I'm
vitations have been sent out by
George Colvin, state superin-
tendent, to III negro education
al leaders holding administra-
tive positions urging them to be
present at conference which
will be held here December II
and p, to discuss education. Ne
gro superintendent of schools
and presidents of colleges and
all other holding administrative
positions in the common and
private schools are expected the
conference, according to Mr..
Colvin.
The object of the meeting is
to urge better educational ad-
vantages FOR the negro children
of the state. according to Mr..
Colvin, and to formulate plans
for carrying out this program of
betterment. Leaders in the ne
gro institutions of the state
have been in conference here.
and have mapped out program
for the meeting which begins
Thursday.
"The problem of educating our
youth imposes a very serious
obligation upon the leaders of
both races" said Mr.. Colvin in
his message to the officers of the
negro institutions.
kentucky holds the proud
distinction of having dealt more
Justly with the negro children
in educational matters than any
other southern state. Our Con-
stitution makes no discrinina-
ton between white children and
negro children, and the state
school fund is distributed on a
per capita basis regardless of
color or race. Local communi-
ties sometimes do discriminate
against the negro children i'll
providing educational opportun-
tiles. The negro population of
Our state in many sections is so
sparse and scattered os to make
if difficult TO maintain schools
for negro children.
"Practical1y all negro children
not living in cities are denied
access to high schools. In the
past even more negro high
schools have been maintained
they have been denied accredited
recognition. Negro schools even
mere than white schools have
suffered from political influence
and political control. Too often
the compulsory attendance law
has been ignored SO far as it re-
Iates to the negro child. Some
times the negro teachers are dis
eliminated against i'll salary
schedules.
adequate opportunities for
teacher-training have not been
provided for negro teachers. Too
often the leaders Of the negro
race have been divided among
themselves. Neither white nor
black have realized the terrible
cost and wastage of ignorance;
Good citizenship demands better
educational advantages for both
white and negro children. 1t is
properly expected that our edu-
.cational leaders both white and
black should take the lead in
formulating plans to secure bet
ter educational opportunities for
