DoDGING A TEST CASE

Refusal of the Supreme Court to
pass on a test case which involved the
legality of contracts binding property
owners in Washington not to sell
homes to Negroes establishes the right
to bar them out of prescribed resi-
dence districts by this method. The
effect Of the decision is to leave in
force injunctions issued by lower
courts preventing such disposal Of
property where agreement has been
entered into not to sell to a certain
class or race. The issue has aroused
a great deal Of controversy in NUM-
ber of cities. It has intensified racial
anirnosities and from time to time
brought about riotous conduct deplor-
able from every point Of view. : '
The Negroes of this city are entitled
to opportunity to acquire good homes,
to escape from alleys and siums, to
raise their standards of living, to edu-
cate their children. They are an in
tegraI part Of the community. What
ever helps them helps the city as a
whole. and whatever is harmful to
their physical, mental and moral well
fare is inevitably reflected upon the
general public.-From Baltimore Sun.

The faculty have objected to previous
choices Of the trustees on the grounds
that they were unfamiliar with the Ne
gro question and were by training and

churches than an educational institu-
ton.

1t Was a Weird and Solemn Scene

1t Was Weird and Solemn Scene
Immediately after the operation came
to an end, the operating table on which
we were still stretched out, was
wheeled along by the side of the bed
on which we were to lie for the next
two weeks. Four attendants were
called for to lay hold of the four cor
ners of the sheet and gently transfer us
from the operating table to our bed.
1t was at that point we got splendid
glimpse Of the last impressions of the
operation
All of the interior of the operating
room, including the furniture, was fin
ished in pure white An electric light
dropped down from the ceiling right
square over our eyes and head and
just before the operation began the
light was switched off for just a mo-
ment and the room was in total dark
ness. Then DR.. Cradle requested that
he wanted more light and we noticed
with the light on, that large white
cloth completely covered our body,
with small opening for the doctor to
work around our eyes.
DR.. Cradle and all of his assistants
were completely covered in white from
head to foot. Not a word was spoken
on the part Of anyone except under his
direction and observing the speechless
figures silently and solemnly moving
around as though they were standing
by the edge Of the grave.
That solemn scene left an impression
in our mind which will remain there
for all time to come.
1t was between 500 and $50 o'clock
on Tuesday evening, June 8, when our
bed landed in its position with our
eyes looking directly towards the east
and hguratively speaking our eyes
were riveted on the star in the east
and our time was occupied between
our dear wife, Mrs. Taylor, and on that
never-failing star, Miss Bennion, the
head nurse Of that ward walked along
by the side of our bed until it came to
a full stop and while doing SO she
declared that she intended to put US on
a diet of Graham crackers and milk, and
after hesitating we softly said that
will be much better than nothing at
all" As stated, it was about $3.50
o'clock before we had got settled down
to the real seriousness Of our mission

and as we had had nothing at all to eat
that day after a light breakfast, so we
felt that we could eat four or FIVE boxes
Of Graham crackers and drink four or
FIVE bottles of sweet milk, but the doc
tors countermandtd Miss Bennion's
diet order and they issued an order
that Mr.. Taylor must not be per-
mitted to eat any solid foods for four
or FIVE days; that he must live for that
length of time on liquid foods, and
nothing in the way of any kind Of eat
ing found its way to us that evening
and we could hear people eating all
around us on Wednesday morning
quite early. Our nurse, Miss McCor-
mick, for the next two weeks approached
our bedside and she wanted to know
when and how did We get in the ward so
late at night or early in the morning" and
we politely informed her that an operation
was performed on US on Tuesday evening
BY DR.. Harry s. Cradle, at which time he
very successfully removed dangerous
cataract from our left eye. Then she
wanted to know ii we had had any
thing to eat We said no, that the
doctors would noe permit US to cat
anything in the shape of solid foods.
She expressed much sorrow for us and
intimated that for the next FIVE days
and nights we had a long and rocky
road to travel, then she disappeared
and soon returned with bowl of nice
warm beef broth, a cup of hot coffee
and with several other soft edibles on
the side, including glass of eggnog,
a cup of nice hot tea, dish of ice cream
and further along Mr. Charles Stew
art, Jr., and several other friends
brought several dozen Of nice fresh
eggs, which our nurse prepared for US
from time to time and from an eat
ing point Of view we faired well while
in the County Hospital
In passing we rushed a little ahead
Of our main story. AS it has been
stated above, that for FIVE days and
FIVE nights, 90 hours, we were

eyes were closed up tight with blind

HIGH CLASS HORSE RACING AT THE
WASHINGTON PARK RACE
COURSE UNDER THE MANAGE
MENT OF PRESIDENT ROBERT Nj.
SWEITZER AND GENERAL MAN
AGER THOMAS E. BOURKE OF
THE ILLINOIS JOCKEY CLUB.

President Robert M. Sweitzer and
General Manager Thomas z. Bourke
of the Illinois Jockey club have leaped
their last hurdle and first class horse
racing is again a reality for Chicago.
In the face of overwhelming odds,
whick. included a-public tlrat refused
to believe, horsemen who were too
timid to ship their horses here, harass-
ing legal phases that threatened to
suppress the racing at its outset, and
with drenching weather and muddy
track for opening day-the launching
of the Washington Park meeting on
July 3 could not have been under more
adverse circumstances. And yet, in
the face of all this, the two tenacious
leaders who have revived the sport on
scale commensurate with Chicago's
Importance fought on-and won.
The first important move after the
meeting was assured was to set back
the date for the American Derby from
July 10 to July 81. 1t was foreseen
that neither the Derby horses nor the
Derby track and its appointments
would be ready as early as July 10
to satisfy the demands of the hordes
| that want to be and will be present at
Washington Park on the day the
American Derby is revived
Public sentiment as to high class
racing here and a revival Of the great
American Derby is best seen through
expressions Of business leaders Of the
Chicago area, some Of which follow:
J. OGDEN ARMOUR, Chairman
Of the Board Of Directors, Armour &
Co.:
CAS- casual onlooker but not es-
pecially a devotee of horse racing, /
have not yet discovered anything
detrimental to the sport Of kings, as
the attraction has been called. 1t is a
good thing if honest racing has re-
turned to Chicago. I suppose under
conditions many years ago there was
something to which all could take OBJ
lection, but that was properly laid to
the door of an unscrupulous element
/ cannot imagine Mr. Sweitzer, the
president Of the Illinois Jockey club,
tolerating anything unseemly.
Racing in European countries is
liked by men and women Of all sta
tions of life. In England the king and
the costermonger meet at the track on
common ground and such betting as
may be done is without a vicious
favor. Racing is sane diversion. Let
US have it under proper supervision.
Better still, it promotes healthy in

BRITTON /. BUDD, President of
the Chicago, North Shore & Milwau-
kee, the Chicago. Aurora & Elgin and

pices of the Illinois Jockey club are
ringing true. hope to attend the
American Derby and possibly some Of
the other stakes. 1t has been the ex-
perience of other associations in this
country ard abroad that racing can be
conducted without the unpleasantness
charged against it by persons or or
ganizations without special or direct
knowledge with reference to the sport.
Racing has no demora1izing effect
under present day control 1t has not
weakened society in Britain, Australia,
France, in Canada, nor in the United
States. 1t carries no offense against
humane instincts. 1t brings stimula-
ton to the imagination. There may
be such betting on results as carries
individual zest or interest The moral
loss to the community is nil and there
is just as much good order as one will
find at athletic events, such as base
ball or football. I have witnessed no
hazards and, as said, hope to at
tend the American Derby so auspic-
iously restored to Chicago now"
JAMES f. GORMAN, President of
the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
Railway Co.:
Horse racing today has lost its old
time objections. There was time
when dishonorable hypodroming was
tolerated, but such unfair methods now
are discountenanced. There is betting,
of course, but is not betting practiced,
even at university football contests?
A bet of two or three dollars on race
serves to increase interest. There IS
no element of theft in it.
Il witness a racing event and have
no guilt. I am person Of temperate
habits. Why should I put a check
upon the person, man or woman, who
loves horse and likes to see him 20
out and show the mettle that is in
him? Chicago gains by the return of
the American Derby and hope to be
one Of many thousands to witness its
decision at the Homewood track of the
Illinois Jockey Club on July 31.D

There are various ways of looking

is again to see horses back. Ny COM

WAGE PHILOSOPHY
OF American Organized La
Dor Upheld By Company
Head

BY International Labor News Service.
Montreal.-The wage philosophy of
the A. F. of l.. as embodied in the
Atlantic City declaration, was ex-
ponded and defended by a prominent
American employer in an address to
the annual convention of the Canadian
Gas Association here.
Business can only be good when the
individual can buy and for that rea-
son the low wages fallacy has done
more to interfere with real prosperity
than all of the other so-called eco
nomic causes put together, declared
Frank w. Steere, president of the
Steere Engineering Company, Detroit.
In general, he added, the tendency
of all industries is to pay low wages
and low salaries. Cities boast of low
wages and offer it as an inducement
to manufacturers looking for loca-
tions. But this is merely to invite
manufacturers to locate their plants
where the local markets have low
purchasing power, to advance an argu-
ment which if sound would induce
every manufacturer to seek locations
in China or India. He added:
"The rational way to make business
good-to have prosperity is to build
up the purchasing power of the indi-
vidual. We have heard too much
about increasing production and not
enough about building absorbing ca
pacity.
Industry is beginning to realize
that the effort of all management
should be to so organize their own
particular industry that the highest
possible income may be paid to every
employe, not from altruistic motives,
but for the purpose of increasing pur-
chasing power, and thus keeping
business active"

Engineers Brotherhood To

Cleveland, Ohio.-The Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers will estab-
lish two new banks this summer. One,
in San Francisco, completes the
Brotherhood's financial program for
the Pacific coast while the other fur
nishes added service to Cleveland
clients. The San Francisco bank is
capitalized at $500,00O with surplus of
S150,000, controlled almost exclusive
ly by members of the Brotherhood in
California and adjoining states. This
fills the last important gap in the
coast banking chain with Portland,
Tacoma, Seattle, Spokane and Hill
yard already supporting Engineers
banks. Los Angeles is served by the
Peoples National Bank, established in
1924 and now enjoying deposits of
more than $3,000,000
The Brotherhood banks and invest
ment companies now command re-
sources in excess of 100,000,000,
while the Pacific coast banks alone
have resources nearing $10,000,000.

Harry Boggs, president of the local
union, has been placed under arrest
ON the charge of trout" an old time
Indiana statute being dug up for this
purpose. The law says a person is
guilty of ''rout" who does things that

Existence of Contract Denied
Following the announcement by the
Indianapolis Street Railway Company
that one reason the officials refused
to negotiate wage contract with
their striking employees was because
the men had violated former con-
tract, counsel for the strikers declared
to the citizens committee that the
company had no contract of any kind
with the men who walked out and
that its contention in this regard was
mere subterfuge. Company officials
were challenged to present any such
contract signed by the men now on
strike
