Said America Moro In
Need Of Missionaries
Than HGathGn Africa

Prince Cetwao, alleged 70 year
old African Prince was assaulted at
Fairfax, Va, recently after making
speech at the white public school,.
it is repotred that the little COM
munity of Herndon in Fairfax, Co.,
became enraged at remarks made by
the Princt when he referred to Amer
lea beign more in need Omission
Aries than Africa. The night after
the Princt made the remarks he was
brutally attacked at his rooming
place. After being beaten the Prince
was taktn to the door steps of the
Supt. of Schools, A. l.. Woodsor
whom it is alleged was responsible
for the Prince speaking at the white
schools. The Prince was thrown
rudely on the steps of the Supt. OF
Schools where he was told to leave
the community and never return to
Herndon. The Prince left the com
mnuity that night, friends driving
him to Alexandria.
Getwayo is wellknown in the Val
ley of Virginia. He lived in Staunton
several months lecturing, preaching
and cooking. While here he changed
his faith from Episcopatian to Bap-
fist. He became member OF MT.
Zion Baptist Church, pastored by
the Rev. E. D. McCreary. While
here spoke at all of the white schools
which included the exclusive white
female institutions of the city. Get
wayo claims to also be high Mason.
While in this city ne gave a pubic
meeting for the benefit of the Ma
sonic affiliations of the city, which
was well attended.
The people of Staunton gave lit
tie credence to the story OF the
Prince, eepsaillclcc ct aeta etaetoa
Prince, especially the Colored popu..
lation it is related. He told many OF
the people that he was doctor, both
medical and hoodoo, and it reported
that he sold much of his "hoodoo''
Rheumatism medicine to the gull
able public of Augusta County. Inc
Prince was of course also preach
er and held meetings at Craigsville,
Waynesboro and other churches OF
the city. He hod his wife with him
during his stay in Staunton and al
so his son who was bootblack at
the Beverley Hotel. The Princes
wife was a portly brown skin wo-
man whose speech sounded more
Georgia" than African. She was
certainly an American. GetWayo
claimed to have been an Oxford
graduate and a classmate OF the
Prince OF Wales at the time, ana
who is now King George V OF Eng
land. Prince Bullano Getwayo claim
de to have been seventy years old,
and the son of the Zulu Chief, Chec-
ka. His youth was supposed TO
have been preserved by acertaln
medicine he sold. The Prince seemed
to have been many years the elder
of his wife and his son looked to be
about 10 years old. The Prince
claimed to have held severaldegrees
when he lived in Staunton. His rheu-
matism medicine which he manufac-
tured was supposed to be the "Cats
hind hip"
The Prince after leaving here
spent some time in Charlottesville,
it is not known here where ne now
resides. He claims to be getting
money to return to his homeland to
work with his people. He carried
credentials from the English embas-
sv in Washington establishing his
identity. He has not lived in Staun-
ION for the past year.

Mr.. Pickens in explaining the
course pursued by Judge Parker IN
rendering his decision in the Rich
mond segregation case stated that
Judge Parker's decision was based
on precedents set by the decisions
handed down in the Louisville and
Louisiana cases by the United States
Supreme Court. He said that Judge
Parker did the right thing, that was
all. That the Primary case, had 1t
been appealed to the Supreme Court
and the decision rendered by Judge
Groner been upheld, it would have
set a precedent that would have had
legal effect in every state in the
union, was the reason advanced by
him for the failure of the party Of

Danger lies in careless selection of
Iaxatives! By taking the first thing
that comes to mind when bad breath,
headaches, dizziness, nausea, bilious
ness, gas on stomach and bowels, lack
2f appetite or energy warns of consti-
patton, you risk forming the laxative
habit.
Depend on a doctors judgment in
choosing your laxative. Here's one
made from the prescription of a
specialist in bowel and stomach dis
orders. Its originator tried it in
thousands of cases; found it safe for
women, children and old folks
thoroughly effective for the most
robust man. Today, DR.. Caldwell'a
