torians, it is known that Coolspring
opened its door during the fall OF
1926.
A Quaker Meeting House, the only
one existing in Sussex county at the
time of the founding of Coolspring,
stood one mile in an northeasterly
direction, on plot of ground facing
what is now known as Red Mill
Pond, on the Milford-Rehoboth high
way. Old gravestones and markers
are still to be found.
The old Joppa Church. used by
colored folk, stood short distance
from the Quaker Meeting House,
thus giving the people three churches
within a radius of a mile.

Harlem Adopts New
Employment Plan

Continued from poe epel
in which every Negro may partiei-
pate without joining any particular
organization. that has for its aims
and purposes the developing of big
ger and better Negro business and
increases employment opportunities
for our entire group.
2. What part does an individual
such as myself, play in this plan?
Ans.-You, alone. can do nothing.
But you, acting in concert with
250,0 900 others. can accomplish much.
You can mentally pledge yourself to
observe the first full week" in each
month as Negro Trade Week. How?
BY trading ONLY in stores where
Negroes are employed in proportion
to Negro trade enjoyed.
3. How many jobs are here in
Harlem that are available under this
PLAN
Ans. According to The Crisis.
there are more than 5000. most of
which are in stores that enjoy 100
per cent Negro patronage Some Of
these stores already have begun add
ing eolored clerks and managers and
more will act when we take $500. 900
out of their cash registers once each
month.
d. How will the operation of the
/ one-vear plan place Negroes in these
jobs?
Ans. - In Chicago, Philadelphia
and several other places, it has been
found that the same chain that re
fuses in Harlem to employ Negroes
now uses colored clerks and man
ayers. The public simply refused to
support them unless they changed
their policy. They will do the same
in Harlem. If we decide to carry
out this plan.
5. How will the plan help Negro
business?
Ans.-lt is an unwritten law that
Negro-owned business enterprises. in
segregated communities like Harlem,
must employ colored people. If a
part of the 100000 now spent each
week were spent only where Negroes
are employed, surely Negro business
will be helped as a natural result.
S. Why was only one week each
month selected?
Ans.-Because the withdrawal of
more than a half million dollars
from the cash registers of firms that
do not employ colored people will
in one week be felt like the blow
from an AK No business in Harlem
can exist without four weeks bus
mess each month. Take away one of
them and no stone will be left un-
turned to retrieve the lost business.
6. What part do the ministers
play in this plan, and what will
they gain by helping to put it over?
Ans.-The ministers are the ac-
knowledged leaders of the masses ef
oor sioup' ne greater the number
of unemployed, the smaller are his
collections. If all the available jobs
in Harlem were held by Negroes
every person in Harlem would be
better off, the landlords could col
lect their rents, landladies would be
able to rent their rooms to paying
roomers.
7. Will this plan drive any people
out of business in Harlem?
Ans.-Not unless they absolutely
refuse to employ colored help behind
