YOUR PROPERTY FROM
THE AUTO THIEF
By Chief of Police Morgan A. Collins

With the approach of the summer
months the danger of having your au-
tomobiIe stolen becomes greater. Here
are a few suggestions on how to pro-
tect your car against theft:
Always lock your car, whether on
the street or in private garage. Lock
the ignition, transmission and wheel,
On closed cars lock the doors and be
sure the windows and windshield are
closed.
Remove the distributor as an addi-
tional safeguard if you are obliged to
park your car for any length OF time
The distributor can easily be removed
on most make of cars.
Carry your State and City license
cards with you at all times also the
motor and serial numbers of your car.
Place your own distinguishing marks
on the engine and body Of the machine.
Secure your spare tires with good
strong lock. Cheap locks are worth
less as safeguards. Don't leave coats
or other valuables in your car.
Investigate very carefully before you
buv a secondhand car Make sure the
person YOU buy it from is reliable It
NAV be stolen property and win be
taken from you. In all such pur-
chases have the machine checked by
the Police Automobile Detail-Frank-
lin 01oo.
If your car is stolen, telephone the
police station Immediately In report
ing the theft give all the information
YOU possibly can, then call at the sta
ton personally and make full report
Of the theft.
Because your auto is insured against
theft is no reason why you should be
careless. An unprotected car eneour-
ages the thief.

Every time you light a pipeful of

and every time you finger some Vir-

future Of kiddies of the Race, who. for
low wages and at the deprivation of
health and education, put in from 10
to II hours day producing the make

you have thus refreshed your recollec-

looking to the preservation of the child
labor which is being exploited in the

that the colored kiddies are the great
est sufferers in the narrowing tasks of
the tobacco plantations.
In Kentucky, the writer has visited
their shacks in the rural districts
where, attended by insanitation, impure
water, and the lack of wholesome
health privileges, they toll the long
day through for greedy employers.
Within the past ten years. tobacco
has increased over SO per cent in sale
price; but wages have barely increased
10 per cent; and the ten-hour dav is
as prevalent as ever. If people must
smoke and chew, let them join hands
with Righteousness to the end that

the right in earning to reach maturity
with healthy bodies and minds, in

in the form OF good wages, recreation,
education, equitable hours, and the full
chance to develop and grow. And our

Michigan's Interracial Commission
Michigan Of the far North, where,
until the Sweet case blurred the states
splendid record, interracial relations
were reciprocally pleasant and Chris
TANNED, has joined the list Of states
experimenting with commissions, COM
posed of members of both races, to
establish facts and recommend RENE
dies to cure interracial ills. Governor
Groesbeck has announced the appoint
ment of five white and FIVE colored
gentlemen of eminence to form COM
mission which shall advise the state
executive oficiary and the public as
to the inside of the cup of interracial
relations. Some years ago, Governor
Lowden Of Illinois appointed a sim
liar commission, which, after its fact
finding activities, made its report and
disbanded In a national way, there
is now pending in Congress a Negro
industrial commission bill, which pro-
vides elaborate machinery for solving
all the interracial problems which have
arisen during the past half century
In private life, organizations like the
National Urban League are endeavor-
ing sincerely to battle with the diff
culties of interracial relationships in
America.
To an unbiased mind, there are only
two theories as to the merits or de-
merits of the question of labelling the
vexatious questions growing out of the
two races advent in this country. One
theory recognizes these problems, and
like the allopathic physician, would try
to abort them by interracial commits
sions, which, however, after the tenn
porary relief afforded by Investigations
and recommendation, realize that they
have neither plenary, judicial, nor min
isterial powers,-hence, leaving the in
terracial diseases just where they were
at first. The other theory, too, recog-
nizes the problems; but fearing that
their accumulation may increase their
virulence, like the homeopathic school
| of treatment, seeks to cause them to
become blended with life in general
and thus lose their identity. Each
theory clearly has its virtues; for in the
Solid South, where hard-boiled inter
racial sinners can, but will not, see JUS
tice, the interracial commission has
unconsciously catered to the psyche
logical vanity that the Negro is still
to be treated as separate and distinct
racial entity Under this guise, the
commission has done much to rebuild
the shattered minds of afflicted SUI
premists." Where, however, as in
New York, Pennsylva-ia, and even
Michigan, past customs and traditions
have not taught the good citizens that
by unwritten law the Negro was to
be singled out and given distinct
treatment in the form of statutes, re-
ligion and a sentiment, which until
proven guilty was presumed to be in
nocent of any progressions against the
hopes and aspirations Of the ex-slave
race, it is doubtful if the commission
idea is a proper innovation to treat the
ills we know of. The Michigan ex-
pertinent will be eagerly watched, for
it is an example to other states Of the
Far North, which, so far as the record
goes, still cleave to the idea of full
freedom and liberty for all the people.
