DETROIT June "a Negro may
not occupy property he owns in sub
division having restrictions, is the
ruling of Judge Leland w. Carr in the
Circuit court here.
Basing his decision on clause in
the restriction provisions of the Lake
wood Boulevard subdivision which
says that property shall not be sold
or leased to persons whose ownership
would be injurious to the locality"
Judge Carr ruled that Negro owners
or 1essees may not reside in the sub

the Lakewood Boulevard Civic Asso-

lyric in the melodious manner or the
Swinburnian school, attracted con.

the same type and bearing the same
signature appeared in that and other
newspaper columns.
Presently It was announced that
"The King Of the Black Isles" was

GERMANS PAY TRIBUTE
TO LOUISE OF PRUSSIA
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, April 10.-The continuing
devotion with which generations OF
the German people have worshiped
Queen Louise, wife of King Friedrich
Wilhelm II of Prussia, is reflected In
the numerous floral tributes banked
high about her monument in the Tier
garten in commemoration OF the one
hundred and f1ftieth anniversary OF
her birth.
Among the flowers and wreaths
were dozens of poetic tributes pains
takingly written in pencil on note
paper or cardboard. One verse Ia
mented "the depths to which your
Germany has sunk" 1t urged the
youth to rise and throw off the Grown
of thorns"-the Versailles treaty and
the Dawes plan-which has been
placed on the country's once proud
head. Queen Louise was regarded as
the most beautiful and charming
woman Of her time. Though history
tells but little Of her, she endeared
herself to her people as few women
in German history.
It is recalled that during the World
War and imitation period thousands
Of persons, too poor to buy enough
to eat, filed past her monument at
anniversary time, each deposjting a
few wild flowers until the greens
were blanketed with blossoms.
