FARMERS
in ARKANSAS WIN
in Prizes AT FAIR

CONWAY, Ark, Oct.-Exhibits en-
tered in the Arkansas state fair at
Little Rock by Negro farmers
won high honors The exhibit
by club members of Faulkner county
brought first prize for county exhib
it; second place on the corn exhibit
as well as sweet potatoes.
According to E. T. Mattison, coun-
ty agent, the products entered at
Little Rock were taken largely from
the exhibits shown at the Faulkner
county fair by Negro farmers here
recently Mr.. Mattison says that he
is exceedingly interested in this, as
it is an evidence that Negro farmers
have made great progress in this
county; and have shown conclusive
ly that agricultural conditions can be
improved and made more profitable.
He declares that less than score
of young Negro men have migrated
from Faulkner county during the
past six years. In fact, he states,
many Negroes have come into the
county and settled on small farms,
which they have developed very
creditably.

Thompson, born in slavery 102 years

for her boy, Milledge Abner, who is

from his afternoon walk in the sun
light. He was later picked up for
begging and sent to Gallinger Hos
pital, under observation for mental
disodrer.
Feeble, and wrinkled as dried ap-
pie, Mrs. Thompson told the court
that she had spent a sleeplesS night,
fearing that Milldege had been in
jured in crossing the streets. She
said he was frail and feeble-minded
and she had to feed him and look af-
ter him; but he was all that she had
in the world and she wanted him back
so they might die together.

TEX RICHARD WILL
KEEP fight fires
BURNING, AYERS

NEW YORK, Oct.-According to
Tex Rickard, prize-fight magnate,
the winner of the Battling Siki-Kid
Norfolk scramble will get a chance
with Tommy Gibbons, the st. Paul
Veteran, who went the entire route
with Jack Dempsey, heavy weight
champion.
There is chance, however, that
Gibbons will refuse to fight either
man, inasmuch as he considered him
self in line for return match with
Dempsey, and failing in this, want
a crack at Luis Angel Firpo Glib
bons, it is thought, might feel that a
bout with either Sikh or Norfolk
might jeopardize his chances against
Dempsey or Firpo.
Some are inclined to think that
this roundabout stuff is still anoth-
er effort on the part of Rickard and
Jack Kearls to stave off the posi-
bility of a fight between Dempsey
and Harry Wills

Whites in CONTROL
TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL
IS final ANALYSIS

MEMPHIS-A few months ago when
Negroes from all parts of the country
were making a howl, practically de-
manding the removal of white Off
GERS at the Veterans Hospital at
Tuskegee, Director General F. T.
Hines made strong assertions that
the personnel at Tuskegee would be
Negro, as we'll as said that he was
endeavoring to work out a plan for
board of control to be composed of
both whites and Negroes similar to
Tuskegee Institute.
The Negroes were lead to believe
that such plan might be o. K since
it seemed that the entire staff at the
hospital would be composed of Negro
physicians and nurses. Then the big
noise about the Tuskegee personnel
abated somewhat, and finally Director
Hines has let it be known that he is
in sympathy with the pecial south
ern committee and has granted them
exactly what they desired A white
man for surgeon-in-chief with two 9TH
er white men as assistants.
That Negroes of the country may
not beSmislead as to the intentions of
Director Hines, the following letter
to George w. Lee, vice president of
the Mississippi Life Insurance Com
pany, with offices in this city, is evi-
dence sufficient. The letter follows:
Mr. George w. Lee, Vice President,
Mississippi Life Insurance Company.
800 Beale Avenue,
Memphis, Tennessee.
My dear Mr.. Lee
Your letter of September 18th, ad-
dressed to the President, with which
you inclosed a resolution passed by
the Tennessee State Convention of
the American Legion, relative to the
United States Veterans Hospital No.
81, Tuskegee, Alabama has been for
warded to this Bureau for reply.
You are advised that careful con-
sideration was given to the matter of
stating this Hospital, and it has been
decided that with the exception of
the commanding officer and two as
sistants, the personnel will be col
ored. Steps are now being taken to
replace the white employees on duty
by colored personnel.
wish to express to you my appreci-
alton of your interest in the matter.
Yours very truly,
(Signed) FRANK T. HINES,
Director.
