With the arrival in the same week, of the British polo team, the Shamrock V and Sir Thomas Lip ton, Old John Bulls sporting chal- lenges to Uncle Sam add zest of in- ternational excitement to the Sep- tember battlefronts.
 If. the invaders can ride the waves and ponies to triumph in the two blue ribbon cup classics of the world of sport, it will more than wipe cut the memory of British set backs this spring and summer at the hands of Bobby Jones, Bill Til den and Helen Wills.
 The chances are som ew h a against such a sweep by the Brit ish forces on land and sea. The lads manning the American main sails and the horsemen handling the polo mallets are well equipped to meet the invasion. On the other hand, the challenge of the Sham rock V in the races off Newport for the Americas Cup and the bid of the Anglo-Irish poloists easily represent the strongest threats to Yankee supremacy since the days before the war.
 Gallant Sir Thomas Upton may leave some chagrin, but no tears behind him, if he bears off the ancient mug in triumph
 The sense of national calamity will be much stronger if Tommy Hitchcock and his fellow Yankee riders fail to repulse the charge of the British light brigade.
 tional tennis championship at For est Hills, Betty Nuthall, was crown ed for the first time, since the field contained no previous holder of the title, but the queen of all courts will continue to be Helen Wills. Moody, far from the scene of competition, at her home in Berkeley, California.
 So abrupt was Mrs. Moody's de- eision to remain at home, that of ficials of the United States Lawn Tennis association were left some what aghast at the prospective loss Of gate receipts at the big West Side stadium. The inference was that the champion was not exactly fnanifesting a proper spirit of grat- itude, considering that not so many years ago, she was given all possible aid, encouragement and advice in the campaign to establish her as the successor. of Molla Bjurstedt Mallory.
 In the only other year in which California's Helen has failed to de- fend her American crown, Molla Mallory staged a comeback to win her eighth national title. That was in 1926. Mrs. Moody has captured the title six times, so her decision to withdraw. this year made more difficult the fulfillment of any ann bition she may have had to sur pass Mrs. Mallory's record.

For Your Further Protection
For your further protection,
the deed provides that each
check must show on its face
exactly to whom the money is
to be paid, and for what it is to
be paid. 1t is each mans duty
to know that the money is being
properly paid before he signs.
In the deed, HE makes HIM

which may be improperly paid

Since four men must sign,
this makes a responsibility of
eight Dollars ($8.O0) for each
and every dollar which is
handled. This is no unenforcible
promise. A definite and binding
clause, bearing the signatures
and seals of each man named
is in the recorded deed, and

I am impressed with the eff
forts of the S. S. & E. Laundry,
incorporated, to establish a mod
ern laundry entirely owned and
operated by Colored people in
this city. The plan proposed
by them for the financing of
this enterprise through an issue
of first mortgage securities is
very much in keeping with
present day financing.
This project should prove
successful because it is headed
by men who are sincere in their
efforts to build for racial pro-
gress, whose past records are
clean and in whom the people
have utmost confidence. This
project will receive my hearty
support.

NINE LETTERS
The Viewpoints Of Prominent Citizens

There is no certain amount to
raise so that the company will
not lose on the prizes. All of
this was thoroughly understood
before I consented to take
charge of the prize money, and
if only ten women turn in any
acceptable subscriptions, and
even if each turns in a sub
scription for only two shares OF
stock which is the smallest sub
scription which can be turned
in, the $500 will be distribu-
ted in prizes to these ten
women.
I am in position to put stress
on the paragraph entitled
white Friends" Our people
have more white friends than
they really know. My expert
ence is that when colored peo-
pie do something worth while
like the C. S. & E. Laundry is
doing. they can get assistance
from both races here.

that not one ever failed for

they all get more work than
they could properly and
promptly do and that's where
they got into trouble. I have

am urging all of the colored
people generally to buy as
many as they can tof these
notes because I feel that there
is no possible chance for any
misappropriation Of the money
unless somebody gets into real
trouble.

By DIR. w. L. RANSOME
Pastor First Baptist Church, So.
Richmond, and Trustee in
Our Deed
The public knows that I have
too many duties on me to have
become trustee in the deed
which the C. S. and E. Laundry
Inc. speaks of on this page.
They were so insistent however
that I could help them by doing
so and so thoroughly convinced
me that their real purpose was
to benefit the race rather than
their own pockets. that I yield
ed.
No men but those who really
meant honest and right would
have put in their deed the
binding clauses and penalties
which affect themselves as we'll
as everybody else who can ham
die any of the funds. These
clauses showed that they meant
to do right by themselves and
meant to see that everybody
else did what was right.
This is what won me and I
nowurge that every one of our
people who can buy one Of
these notes will please do so
and give these men a chance to
complete the worthwhile laun-
dry which they have started.

The second mortgage notes
make an attractive investment
for those who wish the larger

They are secured by a

we conservatively believe will
be worth nearly 100000.
These second mortgage notes
consist of fifty units of $4,000
Richmond planet., 1930-12-13

Since Colored people princi-
pally are requested to furnish
the money by buying the notes,
we made it a point TO see that
colored contractors as we'll as
white ones were asked to fur
nish bids, and we are glad
to state that a colored contrac-
tor was the successful bidder.
