New York, Nov. 29.-The third
session of the New York Police De-

TRIBUTE TO MOOREFIELD
STOREY SYNDICATED IN
WHITE PRESS

New York, Nov. 29.-The follow
ing editorial tribute to the late
Moorfeld Storey, is being syndicated
in white newspapers throughout the
country, appearing in places as
widely distant as Dayton, Ohio, and
Miami, Florida:
"Men like Moortield Storey, who
has lately died, are a good deal OF
a nuisance. This Massachusetts, law
yer was forever Fostering practical
world with his moral scruples. He
was forever bothering us, for in
stance, with the record of our de-
spoilings of our Indian wards.
"When the United States was
unctuously taking up the white mans
burden in the Philippines, Storey
was Fostering his party with his pro-
tests against the new American i'm
perialism. When most of us wanted
to be restfully forgetful of the negro
and his problems, Moorfield Storey
was pushing along his National Asso-
citation for the Advancement of Col
ored People.
eff some fellow that Storey
thought as getting the worst OF 1t
from the law was unable to finance
his own case through the courts, it
would be just like Moorfield Storey
to plod uncompensated clean through
to the Supreme Court to see that
justice was done.
"Such men disturb our pleasant
complacency. They make trouble
and cause pain, like the dentist who
tortures us free of an infected
TOOTH"

Salisbury, N. c., Nov. 1S.-Sev
eral mornings ago, President Trent
made public an announcement thai
he had received from the American
Medical Association relative to Liv.
ingstone Colleges standing in the
list of pre-medical eligibles. There
were three groupings of negro
schools and Livingstone was rated in
the first group meaning that the pre-
medical work at Livingstone will be
accepted at any medical school in
The country. When this announce
ment was made there was consider
able rejoicing among the student
body and faculty.
This is another step in the
meteoric rise of Livingstone College
from &c" class college in 1925 to-
an "a" rank college in 1928 and a

Each year the number of hunters
licenses, and consequently the reve-
nue. from them, has increased. In

26 hunting licenses TO the number OF

In 1929, Delaware stood at the
bottom of the list in total number
of licenses issued, with 1870 to resi-
dents and 344 to non-residents. Ken
lucky licensed 1OS,202 of its citizens

AN INTERESTING PREDICTION
NJ. A. NoRRELL.

Hrsraz- -ssz
c. r. F. Smith, agricultural en-
gineer of Iowa State College, makes
an Interesting prediction. In fifty
years from now, he says, the Amer
ican farmer will sit in an office be-
fore an electric switchboard and
control automatic plows, cultivators
and haryesters which will produce
bis crops for him without the aid
Of single field laborer.
"The great revolution in agricul-
tarM methods of the last fifty years"
Gays Mr.. Smith, twill prove small in
comparison with the revolution that
will take place in the next fifty
years.
Automatic farm machinery which
rups without constant human super
vision will be widely used the
MACHINES will be able to run night
-nd day if necessary the great
est aid to super-farming in the
future, and one whose realization is
near at hand, will be a soil-tilling
machine, which will move over the
Geld, mixing and pulverizing soil,
Organic material and plant food in a
single operation"
The forerunner of these new ma
&ines, it may be pointed out to the
sceptical, is already in operation and
proving successful. 1t is manless
plow used at Iowa State College,
which, after being steered across the
Geld to make the first furrow,
guides itself automatically by a
guide-wheel, which follows the last
furrow plowed until the field is COM
pieted.
