DO YOUR BEST

The 5000 volunteer workers in
the Seattle Community Fund cam
paign are in their first week of CITY,
wide solicitation for the goal of
$676,331 to support the work of 43
relief and welfare agencies.
OF particular interest to Negroes
is the extent to which they share in
the services of the Fund. The So
cial Welfare League, with Negro
caseworker on its staff. cares for
many needy families. The Phyllis
Wheatley Y. W. C. A. acts as a GEN.
Ter for worthwhile activities among
the girls and women. The Central
Registry for Homeless Men cares for
a large number of transient and To-
cal homeless Negro men who other
wise would not have care.
The Urban League, in addition
to its program of health and voca-
tional opportunity, continually seeks
more and better jobs for Negroes.
1t is the mouthpiece for the Negro
in industry. The League helped
many men and women to the posi-
ton where they could provide for
themselves by placing them in steady
jobs.
Certainly Negroes cannot fail to
respond to this call made once year.
We must show the rest of the Seat
tie communities that Negroes are
ready to assume their share of civic
and social responsibilities.
Let each of us do his level best.
No one then can say that Negroes
do less than their full duty.

ATLANTA THE GREAT

The South is resourceful in at
tempts to erect legal bulwarks for
Jim crow.
But Atlanta Georgia whose sew
eral attempts to segregate residential
areas by city ordinance have been
defeated, now seeks to accomplish
the same purpose by requiring house
keepers to get city hall permit
before they may move.
The new city ordinance allows the
clerk to withhold the permit. 'if il
appears that the party, desiring to
move into the neighborhood he pro-
poses to move, and such moving
may cause disorder, fighting, riots.
etc"
This. to be sure, is new type of
segregation measure but it violates
the constitutional rights of the N
gro by denying him the right to
move into property which he may al
ready own or rent.
A couple of more smart moves
like this from Atlatna will merit
this southern city title of 1.-The
Great" and then we'll add big

FILIPINOS APPROVED

Because North Cardinals law
makers never suspected they would
have black-skinned Filipinos among
them. jim crow laws exclude only
Croatan Indians and Negroes from
common schools.
And so by the ruling of Attorney
General Arch T. Allen. coored
lad from across the seas will find
all educational doors in the state
open to him.
Cases like this always demon
strate how inconsistent needless ex-
pensive and downright silly, separ-
ate schools and race prejudioes are.
For example. American whites
have up in Manila. p l., a public
school from which they bar natives.
In North Carolina. an unforeseen
gap in school legislation opens white
schools to eolored people if they are
Filipinos.

JERSEY CITY, n. J. - Claiming
that their brother, the late Howell
Carter, passed for white under the
name of Carl l.. Lob, and amassed
a fortune which he left TO his Sec
rotary, his two sisters declared their
intention to contest his will.
The brother, prominent actor,
died sometime ago, leaving an es-
state approximating 100000 TO his
white secretary, Miss Sarah II. FL
liot This was done, it was said
to keep from revealing his true ra-
cial identity. BY his will, he left
$1,000 to his mother and youngest
sister, both of whom died in 1925.
Now Mrs. Sarah Carter Shields,
of Jacksonville, Fla, and Mrs. Ro-
setta Carter Perdue, of Hyde Park,
N. Y, claim to be his sisters. Mr..
and Mrs. c. l.. Perdue, formerly of
Van Hornet Street, this city, are
now located on their beautiful farm
of two hundred and twenty-five
acres in Hyde Park, Duchess Coun-
ty, New York, only two miles from

Elks Menaced
With New Suit
For Receiver

ATLANTIC CITY, N. IA suit
for the return of 1000 Earnest
money and the possible suit seek
ing a reeeivership for the Elks,
doomed as an aftermath of the recent
annual convention of that body held
in August.
Isaac III. Nutter, prominent New
Jersey Elk, and member of the local
grand lodge committee which spon-
sored the convention here, will ask
that receiver be appointed to take
charge of the depleted Elk treasury
and that the sum of $1,000 claimed
to have been. advanced by the At
lantic City Elks simply as a guaran-
tee that local expenses would be
cared for, be returned.

]. Finley Wilson, grand exalted
ruler of the fraternity, when ad-
vised of the pending suits declared
that he knew all about the contro-
versy. Difficulty arose, it is stated,
over the refusal of the grand lodge
to return the $1,000. The grand
exalted ruler declared that the De-
troit session of Elks in 1881 passed
resolution demanding that the en-

in Turkey, the young Negro, Henri
Noel Hohenzollern, lost his mind but
was cared for by the emperor, and
the ex-Kaiser until Henri's death in
1881.
Kaiser Had Black Guard
The ex-Kaiser Wilhelm II, also
had several Negroes in whom he
was much interested. One of these
was Sabac-el-Cher, who was the
bandmaster of his Guards; another
of these bandmasters was an Amer
lean Merge, named Wilson, whose
family still resides in Germany.
Three of the personal guards of the
ex-Kaiser were also Negroes from
the German colonies in Africa.
The same was also largely true of
the Emperor Franz Joseph of Aus
tria who had several Negroes in his
household, as well as of Russia, I'M
der the Cars, as fayorites, Wallets,
or attendants, Negroes have always
been figures of a certain Importance
at the Courts of Europe, except
that of England.
The Hitler attempt at color dis
elimination is the first in the thou
sands of years of European history
if we except an order issued by
Louis XIV of France ordering all the
Negroes. slave and free, to leave
France because the taste too mark
ed of the white men for the Negro
women and of the white women for
the Negro men, has become so much
the mode that more than 1000 ADAM
doned mulatto children have been
found" and that sit is feared that
the French nation will degenerate
in the whiteness of its skin and the
purity of its blood
This order, it appears, was never
carried into effect for not long at
ter there were enough Negroes in
Paris for am eminent Negro of that
day to recruit whole regiment OF
Negroes, which performed prodigies
of 'galor during the French revoln-
ton.
In any case the Hitler anti-Negro
propaganda can have but little eff
feet since there are less than 800
Negroes in Germany. This propa-
ganda, it is said, like that against
the Negro troops on the Rhine. is
being carried on chiefly by Ameri-
cans to some of whom it is as gall
to see Negroes associating with
white women.
The attempt to bar the Negro
athletes, according to several
French and Belgian papers, is due
to the marvellous performance of
the Negroes at Los Angeles. That
such an attempt will ever succeed,
they say, is to be considered as pre-
posterous

THEORY VS.. PRACTICE

The newspapers and magazines are
favorably impressed with the thesis
on the Negro and the Catholic
Church." by Dr. Willis Higgins.
which earned him the degree of doc
tor Of philosophy from Fordham
University.
DR.. Higgins is the first to earn
such high degree from any Amer
lean Catholic university and it may
or not be pertinent TO add here that
their conclusion of his thesis is that
the hope of the Negro lies in the
Catholic faith.
This may be correct view, but

Charging that the reason for the

arising from one of the jurors
conversing with the defendant on
the first day. Of the trial, Attorney
Nathaniel r. Bronson, appearing
for the plaintiff, moved to have

up the matter after the verdict had
been returned and that Mr. Bron-
son had ..gambled" on his chances
With the jury, were hurled by At
torney Michael v. Blansfield, ap-
pearing for the defendant.
The arguments caused surprise
when the motion was heard before
Judge Frederick M. Peasley, who
reserved decision on the matter.
About a week ago, the suit was
tried in superior court before
Judge Peasley and a jury. Attor-
ney Blansfield filed cross COM
plant to the plaintiffs suit, and It
was heard at the same time. The
suit involved an auto collision be-
tween the plaintiffs and defend
ants cars on the Midlebury road,
which resulted in damage to both
machines. The jury found the
issues for the defendant on the
plaintiffs suit and brought in a
verdict Of $3.50 for the defendant
on his cross complaint.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-03-24

This morning Attorney Bronson
stated in his opening arguments
that he was considering whether
he would move for q. mistrial. He
stated he had learned that one OF
the jurymen, Albert K. Pope OF
oxford, who sat on the case, had
held conversation with the de-
PENDANT during the trial Of the
case. He argued that If this con-
versation had not taken place, the
evidence in the case would have
prevailed upon the jury to bring
in a plaintiffs verdict.
He placed Deputy Sheriff John
L. Gray on the witness stand to
support his charge. Sheriff Gray
testified he saw Pope and Engle-
hart talking on Kendrick avenue,
at noon time of the first day Of the
trial. He said the conversation
lasted minute and a half and that
two other jurymen were waiting for
Pope to finish. He said he saw
the men talking from his window
in the court house, where the
sheriff's office Is located. He did
not know the subject of the con-
versation. He said he Immediately
called Attorney Bronson and in
formed him of the incident.

it was the first time the matter
