In Business Circles

IN Business Circles
The pre-holiday trade, all thing,
considered, has been very lively. Few
new businesses have sprung up. due
largely to the fact that money IS being
held for the holiday festivities. The
principal business is being done bv
the general merchants. All Of the
various Christmas saving funds for the
year have closed and several institu-
tons have already naiied checks. 81

made this startling statement: Rus

Raleigh, n. C-North Carolina IS
now appropriating for Negro educa-
ton nearly four million dollars year,
sum greater than the state expended
for its entire educational program,
white and colored, in any year prior
to 1910 This was the stirling state
ment made by Prof. N. c. Newbold,
Of the state department Of education
at the annual conference on Negro
education held in Raleigh a Jew days
ago.
During the past four years the state
has expended $15.OOOOOO for the edu-
cation Of its colored citizens and is
preparing to appropriate as much
more for this purpose in the four years
just ahead, according to Prof. New
bold, who heads the department Of
Negro education. Eleven years ago
the total appropriated for this purpose
was $225,OOO year The increase.
therefore, has been about 1900 per
cent. OF the four year budget ST.
100000 went for higher education.
Colored high schools have increased
in number from thirteen IN 1921 to
thirty-four in 1924, and high school
students from l,347 to 5,34l. The
number Of colored teachers has IN
creased in four years from 1870 to
5,037- The salaries paid these teach
ers during the. four years aggregate
about seven million dollars.
The greatest need for the immediate
future Mr.. Newbold declared. is a
standard four-year teachers college.
which be thought would Be provided
by the next legislature After that
must come a four-year standard coll
/ lege Of liberal arts.
Both races, said Mr. Newbold. are
coming to realize the need for colored
doctors, lawyers, nurses, and other
professionally trained leaders. North
Carolina has faith il its Negro peo
pie" he continued. 1t has spent MI
lions for their education, and it be-
lieves that there should be one stan
dard for teachers and not two. There
is still much left to Be done II Ne live
up to the doctrine Of equality of edu-
oational opportunity for all the chill
dren Of the state as provided for H
the constitution. Prof. Newbold
called attention to the fact that less
than one-half Of ono per cent Of the
Econntry's criminals come from the
ranks Of educated Negroes.
The conference was attended by the
state superintendent Of education and
by many other prominent educators
Of both races from North Carolina
and other states. IL was widely and
favorably commented on by the press
of the state. The Salisbury Post thus
expressed the general feeling, All

grip Of advantage about his throat
and seemed In momentary prospect Of
reversing the situation. There were
no talk, no cries, no oaths; it was a
silent fight save the grunting and
painting which became more and more
labored as the minutes drew on. In
their catches Drazks stubbled face
rubbed into Transley's well-groOmed
cheek; his snarling teeth snapped, but
missed, at Transley's jaw.
Then it was that Transley remem-
