THE NEW DEAL,--
EXPLOITATION
by Theodore II. Barnes

Some OF the best friends of the
Negroes have been Jews, and for
this tpye of Jewry have tho
deepest respect and admiration.
The intellectual minded Jew, who
Is being prosecuted in Germany at
the present time, has my deepest
sympathy. Such mon as Julius
Rosewald, who gave millions for
the education of Negroes and Fred
Butzel, was and are all high
minded and high-class men, all the
Jewry Of this type deserve the adj
miration of the Negro race. There
Is type of Jew, though. who
takes advantage of the good name
and reputation established among
Negroes by these great and noble
philanthropist of his race and use
their influence to exploit the mass
es of Negroes.
The average jew on Hastings
Street at the present time, when
he becomes flnacially independent.
will move into nelghborhood far
detached from the Negro Race and
will do nothing TO turn back into
the hands of the Negro any of the
profits reaped from his business.
Not only that. but he will do moth

have criticized Negroes for ex-
plotting their group, but | feel that
this exploitation from the outside
is doing far more harm than the
little exploitation from the inside
because this external system Is
sapping, from the Negro race, its
very economic backbone and liveli-
hood. The little exploitation that
Negroes carry on does not have the
far-reaching and detrimental eco
monte effect that this external ex-
ploitation carries.
To give you a faint idea OF the
miserly lecherous Jew. take tho
case that just happended on Hast
ings street where an old customer
OF this Jew, after making deposit
on q pair OF shoes and coming
back to get them was assaulted,
and this was a woman OF our race)
and lied upon and as an after
math of this outrage two men. Ne
groes, have had their lives snuffed
out and this woman Is perhaps In
jured for life.

issued to incito race hatred nor
race prejudice, but they are in in

AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE

The current issues of our press
have been filled with the general
knowledge that q colored advisory
committee has been selected and
perfected by certain governmental
agencies at Washington TO pass
on and recommend pertinent pro-
grams for the particular benefit of
our race and while this news has
been received in more or less
laudatory terms II will not be sur
prising TO see or hear OF some dis
sension because OF the personnel
selected and more particularly be-
cause of probably some not select
ed.
The fact remains however that
at last a committee and a program
OF action has been advised that
will probably gain for us some real
action without the usual fanfare
and hullaboloo OF publicity or puff
notices.

Detroit Recorders Court, is n
castle OF steel and tile where Lady
Justice resides. where erring ones
who have run afoul OF the law
must stand and tell II to the
judge" Some give their testimony
in low, faltering tones. others clear
and defiant. with a touch of brag-
gadocio. Stories OF tenderness, hui
NOR and pathos parade before the
judicial bench-the sordid, grimy
side OF mems lives, dark with utter
depravity. Yes. in the gloomy
morass, occasionally there will
shine light. encrusted with ten
derness for some one. Each has
her vulnerable spot, like the
lliad's hero, Achilles.
Again we wander into Judge
Gordon's Court. A gentleman of
benigned appearance stands before
the Judge. His~hair is snowy white,
with streaks of silver, like tinfoil
on they satisfy cigarettes" He
could easily double for Santa
Claus II he were In a red suit. st.
Nick-the very name is SYNONYM
GUS with happy laughter and star
ry eyes of innocent children. The
beneolent looking old man is
slightly deaf. but the judges voice
has a metallic ring as this sanity
appearing soul stands before him.
A police-woman comes forward,
followed by two little girls, be-
tween the ages of ten and fourteen.
His benign aspect was merely a
mistake OF nature, for this gentle
looking old man was accused of
molesting the two little girls in
movie show. Maybe the Detroit
club women are right and these
Mae West style of pictures should
be censured. No doubt our children
should be protected from bad in
fluences and this old gent is de-
cidedly in his second childhood,
therefore he needs a guiding hand,
so the Judge does his bit for the
NRA by giving grandpa ninty days.
asc this is his fourth offense on
the same charge.

sight into a most deplorable bit Of
activity that is now existent, and
II is to warn that uncouth and un-
gentelmanly Jew who desecrates
the name of all OF those great and
illustrious men OF his race; that
the Negro recognizes line of de-
marcation between his damnable
ilk and those high-minded and
lllustrious characters whom he ex-
ploits in his lecherous program
of eploiting members of the Negro
race. The New Deal, to become a
reality must awaken a conscience
ness for a square deal that will
cooperate to cover each and every
one of these damnable creatures.

HASTINGS STREET
By j. Edward Mccall

here's colorful street in the Motor Town.
Where people of all the races meet
Black and white and yellow and brown,
Prince and peasant and priest and clown
We meet them all on Hastings street.

The pavemcnts. raffic-worn and rough
The stores on Hastings manifold,
Where Jews wax rich on Negro gold,
And Shylock struts his stuff
Above the Clamor of trolley gong.
And the noise of laundering motor van,
We hear the Negroes voice in song
And the barking guns of coppers strong.
Who kill because they can. :
On Tasting street we sing and dance
Despite the ills and wrongs VIC bear
We whrl the dizzy wheel of chance.
We laugh at bitter circumstance.
But stout hearts shed no tear

AIR SHOW AUTOS
INJURE SEVERAL

Five people were more or less SER
iously injured at the air show staged
at Moose Lake, Sunday when two
autos, which were scheduled to col
Tide head on missed and one car
romed into the crowd. Several of
those injured were taken to the hos
pital and some of them were obliged
to remain there for prolonged treat
ment.
Among those injured were, Arden
Hyldahl, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Jens
Hyldahl of Askov, bruised; Miss Ann
Johnson of Barnum, sprained ankle;
Miss Helen Clark, Moose Lake, burned
as she was run over; John Cornelius,
East Lake, bruised; Herbert Johnson,
Mahtowa, suffered bruises and frac-
tured collar bone; and AL Wentz of
Moose Lake, injured ankle. ALI of the
injured are recovering.
According to bystanders one of the
auto drivers jumped before he had
driven his car close enough to the
other which he was to hit and in
so doing cramped the steering wheel
sending it on its injury dealing mis-
sion into the crowd. Before hitting
the crowd the car collided with an
airplane damaging it considerably.
The air show, the first of it's kind
in the Moose Lake community, at
tracted a large crowd. 1t was staged
by seven pilots from northern Mime
sofa, who entertained the crowd from
about p. m. until 5.

SURVEY ON 1856
is NEARLY DONE
Road Will Follow Down the Hillside
to Cross Kettle River For A
Beautiful Drive.

G. G. Gladman, engineer Of surveys
and design of the State Highway De-
partment, st. Paul, came to Askov
yesterday to look over the survey on
the four miles of road west of Askov
with the proposed bridge over Kettle
river on State Trunk Road No. 1856.
The survey which has been under the
supervision of G. M. Christilaw, will
be completed in few days following
which plans will be drawn for the
bridge and road at the central office
in st. Paul.
At point two miles west of Askov
village the road will wind down the
hillside southwesterly for half mile
affording a scenic road with only
slight grade of less than five per cent.
then crossing the river and going
directly west one and three-quarters
miles to the pavement-No. 1. The
bridge floor will be only about twenty
feet above the water. Thus to avoid
high bridge directly west of Askov
it will be located half mile south
at the point where the river is
crossed. The road from there to the
pavement will be on the quarter line
instead of on the section line, accord
ing to present plans.
The thorough survey being made
by Mr.. Christilaw and his crew re-
veals that all the dirt to be moved
on the west side of the river is prac-
tically only clay and gravel, very
little stone, which diminishes the
cost. Soundings of the river bot
tom have been taken and the work of
making plans will soon proceed.
While Mr.. Gladman was here he
also journeyed north to look over
Trunk Road No. 1856, along the Great
Northern railroad, leading to Duluth,
preparing for a survey. The exact
location of that road between Nicker-
son and the Jay Cooke park has not
been definitely settled and it was es-
pecially that part of the road that Mr..
Gladman wanted to look over.

COUNTY AND STATE
VOTE FOR REPEAL

While the returns came in to
County Auditor Andrew P. Edins Of
flee too late for complete tabulation
for publication, an unofficial total for
the county was found to give 1888
votes for repeal and 1749 against re-
peal of prohibition. Among the vii
lagos reported Pine City gave 300 for
repeal while 1876 voted against; Hinck-
ley voted 112 for and 100 against.
Sandstone voted against repeal 1862 to
1879. Askov voted &c for repeal and
80 against.
The state, according to latest re-
turns available for this writing is
clinging to it's two to one margin for
repeal. Returns from 2,615 precincts
of the 1893 gave repeal 337.072 votes
to 174,595 against. Many rural pre-
cincts in southern Minnesota gave
comfortable margins to the dry side
of the ballot, while the wet vote in
the three large cities, Minneapolis,
St. Paul and Duluth offset what gain
was made there.
