W0MAN'S ELEMENT.
PLANNED IN DRIVE.
New Group Will Play Big
Part in Chest Campaign
Here This Fall.

The Mobilization for Human Needs
Conference, held here yesterday and
Friday, has resulted in formulation of
new plans for handling the next Com
munity Chest campaign, it was an
nounced yesterday.
The new plans for the nine-day
drive. which will get under way on
November 20. call for organization of a
women crusaders" group to be headed
by Mrs. Eleanor Patterson. The pri-
mary purpose Of the new unit, it was
explained. will be to provide the women
OF Washington with information re-
garding the Chest and its objectives.
After all" said Elwood Street. di
rector of the charity group. 1t is the
homes that support Of the Chest really
develops. And it will be the duty of
the women crusaders to go directly into
the homes"
Drive in November.
The campaign under the direction Of
Frank j. Hogan, noted attorney and
former president Of the District Bar
Association, will be held in November
Mr. Street said, lin order to take ad
vantage Of the national advertising that
the Mobilization for Human Needs will
be given. One Of the mobilization con-
ferences. held at the White House was
addressed BY President Roosevelt. The
other conference of the group. Of which
Newton D. Baker is chairman, was held
a. the Mayflower.
The Chest" Mr. Street continued,
faces, perhaps. the hardest campaign
in its history-due to the f3ct that the
Government has taken over so much
of the relief work. Many persons are
under the delusion that Uncle Sam
has assumed all the charity groups
work
They fail to realize there are still
the unemployable. to whom charity
must be given: the sick and crippled
children and adults. for whom hospi-
talization and medical aid must be pro-
vided: the aged and infirm. for whom
homes must be provided; the orphans.
whose institutions must be adequately
maintained: the children of employed
parents for whom the day nurseries
must care: the thousands of others.
who must turn to- the settlements and
the other character-building organiza-
tions for healthful and educational use
Of their leisure time
Quotes Hopkins Statement.
Mr.. Street pointed out that Harry L.
Hopkins. Federal relief administrator
declared. in a recent message:
1t is my Interpretation of the Federal
relief act that local and State funds
should be used for disqualification. the
care of dependent children in institu-
tions and boarding homes. institutional
care of all kinds nensionS opd uelfa re
activities normally carried on by the
State and local subdivisions"
The campaign will be waged by ap-
proximately 1000 volunteer workers, in
Guiding the Women Crusaders Mr..
Street said. At present, he added, Mr.
Hogan Is selecting the personnel of his
committee.

BANK ARGUMENT
IS UP TOMORROW
U. S. Savings Contract in
Hamilton Merger Uncer.
tain of Approval.

Whether the United States Savings
Bank will be allowed to take part In
merger with seven other banks to
form the new Hamilton National Bank
under the present proposed contract,
will be settled tomorrow when the ques-
tion is argued before Justice jennings
Bailey in Equity Court.
Justice Bailey has already said that
he doubted very much" whether he
could approve the contract, although he
approved the other seven. In an in
junction suit brought by Col Wade H
Cooper, president of the savings bank.
it was shown that Wilbur H. Zepp. con-
servator Of the savings bank. would be-
come an official of the new bank. JUS
tice Bailey said this made him trustee
Of the assets of the bank, and he there
fore doubted whether he could give his
approval
Question for Argument.
Counsel for the Controller of the Cur
rency and for Edwin C. Graham, pres
ioent of the new bank, are prepared to
argue that the conservator is not so
much trustee as an agent OF the con-
troller, and that further even If he is q
trustee, so long as the price agreed upon
by the contract for the assets Of the
savings bank is fair. then the contract
should approve.
In this case. the banks class A
assets tthe only ones involved in the
contract are to be taken over at par,
100 cents on the dollar. As Roger j.
Whiteford, counsel for Mr. Graham
put it:
Even if the Angel Gabriel or the
Apostle Paul we're the conservator, they
couldn't get more than that. and so it
could make no difference to the savings
bank"
Determined Against Merging.
w. Bissell Thomas, attorney for Col
Cooper, on the other hand, said yes
terday that he would insist not only
that the contract be disapproved, but
that the conservatorship be ended and
the bank be allowed TO open on its own
power.
He said that the bank has 5000
more in assets than the total Of its
depositor liability. The bank has $744,-
600, he said, In mortgages on small oc-
cupied real estate, no one Of which is
in default. Yet, he said, the controller
of the currency made the bank write
this asset down to $4,000.
"Of course" he said, this asset Is
not liquid. These mortgages are not
quoted on the New York Stock Ex-
change. But the mortgages are all
perfectly good. We will not be satisfied
until the conservatorship is ended and
the bank is open"

THE sCoTTsBoRo AFFAIR

The verdict of guilty was rendered
by jury Of Decatur, Alabama, citizens,
with a sentence to death in the electric
chair, in the trial of negro youth charged
with rape.
For some years past, there has been
tendency on the part Of a large section
OF our emotional people to question the
verdicts Of juries in cases of national in
teTest Without offering any opinion on
the merits of the cases themselves, we
might quote the Tom Mooney case, the
Sacco-Vanzeth case and the present Ala
bama case.
Probably SO out of every 100 persons
who clamor for Justice" in these cases
know nothing of the facts or the evidence.
Carried away by writer's in the sensational
press, by half-baked agitators who have
nothing better to do, and by emotional
folks who are governed by their sym
pathies rather than by their intellects,
masses Of our people who are easily led,
join with the agitators in demanding what
they call Justice but what in reality is
a demand for acquittal.
The entrance Of citizens of New
York and other states into what the peo-
pie Of Alabama consider their own domes-
tic affair, was unfortunate, as it aroused
keen resentment. The crime of rape in
the southern states is one that has always
demanded the most extreme penalties be-
cause of local conditions, which do not
exist in other sections Of the country.
There isn't a person in the country
who would want to send the negro youth
to the electric chair if he is innocent. Nor
is there person in the country who would
not demand the electric chair for him if
the crime Of rape had been committed by
him on one of their own women.
Let us be sensible and trust the courts,
judges, juries and lawyers to see that JUS
tiee be DONE

BEER COMES BACK

After fourteen years, during which
time the country patiently tried out "a
noble experiment. = thumbs were turned
down on theories and theorists and sane
decision on the part of the American peo-
pile found its expression in the legalizatiom
Of palatable, desirable and highly val
liable article of real food value---beer.
The outcome was inevitable For
fourteen years we have contended that the
world never takes permanent step back
wardand transferring the production
of beer from the scientific, sanitary and
highly efficient breweries to the UNI
scientific, unsanitary and germ-laden at
mosphere Of the individual home was a
decisive step backward.
Democracies are prone to great err
rors They are prone to great errors for
the simple reason that they are susceptible
to unintelligent leadership and are fire.
quently the victims of mass ignorance
The experiment of the country with
prohibition was one of these ignorant mass
waves. Led by well-intentioned, but
ignorant leaders, fired with religious zeal
and little else, our country was led into the
most grievous error of modern times.
But the great error has been cor
rected The entire country breathes sigh
Of contentment, hardly daring to believe
that it is all true and that ignorance and
prejudice have been relegated to oblivion.
The acclaim with which the return of beer
has been hailed by Americans everywhere
is proof. not only of the desire Of the
people for beer. but of the fact that in the
future they will hesitate before again
listening to the voice Of the blind and
ignorant demagogue. religious or other
wise.
