He will speak from 3:45-9 p. III. [. $. T.
 Arrangements for the presidents radio appearance at Tuskegee's < golden anniversary were concluded just prior to the presidents leaving Washington on his trip through the Caribbean Sea aboard the Arizona"
 On the same day the president will speak in connection with the observance of Pan American Day at the Pan American Union in Wash ington. This speech also will be broadcast over the Columbia net work.
 The presidents contribution to the Tuskegee Institute anniversary observance will be his third address in two days which will be broad cast, as he also will open the annual convention of the American Red Cross Tn Washington on April 13. From April 13 to June 17 the presi- dent is expected to make nine ad- dresses and will review the annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic at Columbus, ohio, where he also may deliver brief message of greeting.
 sTuskegee Institute sprang into ma tiona1 prominence when the late Dr Booker T. Washington became it's head in the later nineties. orator. scholar and educator, his outstand- ing abilities gave the country's first institution of higher education for negroes world prominence. Dr Wash ington's famous luncheon at the White House with President TheO- dore Roosevelt became an American political incident of the first magni- tude and subjected Teddy" to some of the most whitening criticissls of his whole career.
 Tuskegee specializes in the pro- duction of teachers. artisans and spiritual leaders for the colored race. It's graduates to-day are at work in native lands all over the world where the black man is striv- ing for social betterment.
