New York, May 27.-The National
Association for the advancement of
Colored People, SO Fifth Avenue, has
received letter from H. A. Lett,
Deputy Director of the State Depart
nent of Labor and Industry, stating
that the Michigan Anti ntermarriage
Bill expired quietly and painlessly
on the evening of May 18th, at which
time the Michigan State Legislature
adjourned" Mr.. Let's letter to the
N. A. A. C. P. continues as follows
"This Bill was introduced in the
early days of the session and through
out the entire Legislative period, even
until the last week, petitions were be-
ing read in both Houses urging the
passage of this Bill. The fact that
these petitions invariably hailed from
Klan infested districts, is to be ex-
oected.
''The Judicial Committee of the
Senate, however, in whose hand this
Bill reposed was composed of some
very fair-minded< men. This is par
;icularly true of the Chairman, Mr.
Condor, and through their efforts the
measure was successfully pigeon
holed.
at is particularly pleasing to me
to note the wonderful cooperation
that was given by N. A. A. c. P. Of
fcials throughout the State and the
quiet efficient way in which they did
their part. l believe that the effort
and the result should be an object

Raymond Cannon, 3400 Oakland
Ave-, National President of Alpha
Phi Alpha Fraternity, has an inter-
esting article in the June Messenger"
on Fraternities as a benefit to the
race. 1t is counter attack upon the
attitude of P. P. Ivy toward fraterni-
ties. Aside from being national
president of Alpha Phi Alpha Fra
ternity, Mr.. Cannon is very active in
Minneapolis politics in spite of the
fact that he is also successfully en-
gagged in business. Mr.. Cannon has
large well-equipped drug store on
Plymouth Ave. He is one of our most
progressive Minnesotans.
Colored folk who pay sixty-fve
cents per month for the white dailies,
moan about having once subscribed
for three months for race newspaper
that failed. They willingly pay $3.50
year for enterprises that employ
practically no Negroes. But holler
loud and long when they happen to
invest from 75cN to $500 in Negro
enterprise and effort and lose month
or two of service because the enter
prise fails usually on account of lack
of support. That's brother for you!
1t will pay you to ask your grocer
butcher, clothier and coal man, too, if
he advertises in your papers. If he
doesn't he little appreciates your pat
ronage; your boys and girls have. to
live, too!
