RUMANIA SNAGS
PROGRESS At
ARMS TALK

GENEVA, April 81 GNSJ.-
The League of Nations diSarma-
ment conference, transformed
overnight into a forum for dis
cusSion of economic, financial
and political questions facing the
world, encountered a new obstacle
to progress today.
A resolution introduced by M.
Titulescu, of Rumania, on behalf
of IA smaller nations, quashed
hopes that had been held out
for some immediate, salutary step
aimed at demilitarizing the world.
The Rumanian resolution, ap-
parently of French authorship,
figuratively threw a monkey
wrench into plans laid by United
States Secretary of State Henry
L. Stimson and Prime Minister
j. Ramsay Macdonald, of Britain,
to pull the conference out of
technicalities and generalities and
set it on a path of action.
Stimson and Macdonald had
agreed to seek a unanimous vote
on the resolution introduced by
Sir John Simon, British foreign
secretary, providing for quail
tative disarmament"
At the outset, however, Titu-
lescu stepped forward with a
resolution asking for a technical
definition Of offensive arms"

analysed. Republican political lead

Speakers outlined the history of
Negro political struggle in this city

that Negroes in various separated
communities in the city had never
joined in concerted action to achieve
heir ends. Although more than
hundred thousand Negroes live in
the so-called Southside district OF
the city whose political influence is
weakened by lack of concentration.

Church Jim Crows
Own Members

WILMINGTON, N. c. - When
members of the st. Luke AM E.Z
Church here, turned out to see the
Negro play. Heaven Bound" they
found that their church had put up
race barriers.
As members entered the church
and proceeded to seat themselves as
they liked, they were promptly told
by ushers. I'VE are very sorry. but
colored people can't sit on the left
side. they must either sit on the
right side or in the galleries These
seats are reserved for the white
folks. They had received orders.
The pastor is the Rev, j. b. "A. Vel
verton.
Before long. about fifty whites
had been seated in reserved seats"
and as the Ministries do when Ne
groes take up all the space that Is
allotted them, the imaginary rope
was pulled down and members of
the race who were standing scram-
bled to the seats.
Not being satisfied with segrega-
don and insult, one Professor Har-
ris, who was conducting the pageant,
had the nerve to ask the people to
walt and "let our white friends pass
out first"
Better thinking Negroes of the
city became indignant and walked
out. Others were happy to welcome
the whites.
Locally colored folk are asked out
or to take seats in the gallery of
white churches.
