Business League Completes Survey OF
5000 Negro Enterprises In g Cities

TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala. -
That service, price and quality over
come the obstacles of color in bust
ness is the conclusion of the investi-
gators who conducted the survey of
Negro business after having exam
ined more than 5000 businesses in
thirty-two cities of fifteen states
during the past eight months.
The preliminary report was made
here to DR., Robert R. Motion, presi-
dent of the National Negro Business
League, under whose auspices the
survey was conducted. "Many Of our
business men too often confine them
selves only to the Negro markell
field necessarily limited by the
wealth and buying power of the
group served" the reports reads.
Cases are cited where Negroes
have been able to compete in yhe
open market against all Corners.
"These furnish ample evidence that
given thorough knowledge Of their
businesses with fair capital, Negroes
can successfully compete in the open
market regardless of the racial
factors. This presents the most
fruitful field for further expansion"
Negro business enterprises the re-
port reveals, are still predoninantly
individual enterprises. Especially is
this true in the retail field. Too few
partnerships exist and not enough

Negro Actors In
Russia Say They
Are Not Stranded

NEW YORK CITY, ,(CNA.)- 1--WE
greatly deplore and emphatically
deny all the slanderous charges and
rumors concerning the postpone
ment of the film Black and White ="
is the substance of a cable received
here last week from fifteen members
of the group, men and women who
left America in the spring to take
part in the making of film of Negro
life at the invitation of the Mez-
harabpom Film Company.
The reference to "slanderous
charges and rumors concerns the
statements published widely in the
white press, and in certain Negro
newspapers, as soon as it became
known that the film had been post
poned for a time, to the effect that
political considerations had induced
the Soviet Union to abandon the
film, and that the Negro actors were
stranded" in Russia.
Enjoy Trip
The cable, in part, read as follows
Throughout our stay in the Sow
let Union, we have been housed in
the best hotels, given food privileges
and accorded all the courtesies the
Soviet Union can afford. The terms
of our contract are being entirely
fulfilled by the Mezharabpom Film
Company, and the postponement of
the film has in no way affected this
relationship. In addition, we have
received many privileges not con-
tanned in our contract. We have
been given a tour of Southern Rus
STA and along the Black Sea. At
the present time the tour is being
arranged for us in Turkestan, the
Caucasus, and Armenia.
"Those who return to America
are not only given their return pas
sage, but will be reimbursed in
American dollars for the money
spent in payment of their fare to
the Soviet Union. Work has been
secured for those who wish to re-
main here. In short, everything is
being done for our welfare and ac-
commodation.

 Trips Biggest Thrill
 There were some exciting mo- ments in the airplane trip across the continent to Seattle, MT. Craw- ford said. Moments when it was touch and go whether it would continue as an aerial expedition or return to the land. But the biggest thrill of the adventure came as MT. Crawford and Miss Mercer crossed the Alaska Range at Broad Pass.
 With the Cantwell Field, their destination for refueling, not far ahead of them, fog closed il, around them, shutting them off from the railroad which they were following. In climbing to get above the fog, at an elevation Of 5000 feet, the plane burst through momentarily into clear air. And ahead of them some 15,000 feet away, majestic Mt. Mckinley rose some l4,000 feet above them, a gi- gantic pile bathed in bright sum- shine. This was the most thrill ing moment of the trip" MT. Craw- ford said.

 Failing to break through the fog in the desired direction, MT. Craw- ford followed a river and finally made Cantwell and it's mountain top landing field. It wasn't ar inviting spot, but with only IS minutes of gas supply in the tank. a canyon ahead and water in the rivers flooding the sand bars, the plane had to be set down there

INTERIOR VOTE. STRONG DIMOND, AVER $ PHILLIPS
Democratic Leader Tn Fourth Division Forecasts
 Large Majority

Interior voters are overwhelm- ingly back of the candidacy of Senator Anthony J. Dimond, Dem ocratic nominee for Delegate to Congress, according to advices re- ceived today by The Empire from Harry Phillips. Chairman of the Democratic Committee for that dis trict, at Fairbanks.
 He predicted he would carry the Division by big vote in the Mo- vember election. The Democratic candidate, he said, made a re- markable impression in his cam- paign.
 After Senator Dimond's speech es in five localities in and near Fairbanks, the sentiment is over whelningly in his favor." he said. Tt is very conservative to esti- mate that he will receive two thirds of the votes in Fairbanks and vicinity"
 Not only is this the condition found in Fairbanks, but it is matched by the sentiment in other towns in the Fourth Division, &C., cording to MT. Phillips who add ed:
 'FThe other towns in this Divis- ion appear to be as strongly for Dimond as Fairbanks is. The. out lying districts, though somewhat unknown quantities, give every in- dication of returning good majori- ties for Senator Dimond."

YANKEE STADIUM, NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-The Tanks to- day gained commanding lead in the Worlds Series of two vic- tories to none as they dei9ated the Chicago Cubs by a score of 5 to ? in the second contest. Young Lefty" Gomez, Yank pitching star. shaded Lon Warneke, Cub star, who is the ranking right handler in the National League this season.
 A crowd of more than 5O,0OO per- sons witnessed the contest, and saw the southpaw ace of the Tanks hold the Cubs to nine hits and easily pitch himself out of trou- ble after the first three innings.
 Warneke Is Nervous
 Warneke, pitching his first World Series game, was nervous and fought all the way to maintain control. The Yankee batters slug ged him for 10 hits. He famed seven men, getting Ben Chapman. Yankee left fielder, three times on strikes but on the only other time at bat Chapman drove in two runs with timely single.
 Three fast double plays aided Warneke materially in keeping down the score, one a weird com- bination of Gather Gabby Hart nett's fast thinking and poor Yankee base running in the fourth inning saving the Cub youngster. after Earl Combs and Joe Sewe.l had singled to start the frame.
 Gomez opened it with an easy out. Warneke to Grimm. Combs singled and advanced to second on Sewell's single. Ruth's bess effort was a grounder to the box. Warneke shot the ball to Hartnett who touched out Gomez on the baseline near the plate. Sewell had run down near third and Hart nett rifled to English who touched
