A "New Deal" Is
Being Asked
For by All Glasses

Since the famods and popular ex-
pressing a New DEAF was used by
president Roosevelt in his campaign
for the presidency of the United States,
it has been the cry of men and women
in various walks of life. Everybody
IS calling for new deal" Everybody
is expecting new deal" If a new
deal is going to cause conditions to be
made better-then why not give US
a new deap
Nav we ask: what is really meant
tv a new DEAF? A friend of mine a
few DAYS ago, who understands the
game of cards, explained that new
deal" only meant that the same cards
were used, but were being schuffled
over again. In the deal, the same cards
are laid On the table. You may get
some of the same cards that you had
before. If you get lot OF aces, kings
queens. Jacks etc, you are supposed to
have all of the boss cards, and the eX-
preston is used q have got good
hand"
In this new deaf that the country
is now going wild over, may we ask;
who holds the boss cards?
WILL THE NEGRO GET A NEW
DEAL?
VIII we. as a race, in this new deal,
IN governmental affairs, in state
affairs and in municipality-will we be
occurred of new deaf? If so, will
we hold good hand or a bad hand!

with us, as a race, if we are not per-
mitted to handle some OF the boss caro-
A lot of duces, trays, four spots hVe
ero+e even SKIES and Fights mean
Nothing when the other fellow has got
the nine spots, ten spots, jacks, queens
limos and aces. If the Negro is to have
a new deal" he should be assured q
