The Laundrymen Set an Example

Resolutions adopted by the prin-
cipal laundries of the city take note
Of the danger that the lifting Of
minimum wage scales to the NRA
levels may bring about a widespread
displacement Of Negro workers, and
declare, on behalf of the signers,
that:
We will continue to employ the
same proportion Of colored workers
to white workers, and will not re
place any colored workers with white
workers because of the increased
rate of pay.
The Norfolk laundrymen. among
the largest employers Of Negro lab
OF in the city, have here set an ex-
ample that is to be recommended to
industry throughout t h g South.
Granted that laundries might not
find it as easy as other industries to
hire white workers for jobs hitherto
done by Negroes, they could, in the
course of time, effect a f~ar-reaching
displacement. Such a Displacement
would be to the damage Of the very
employees in whose interest the MIN
imum wage codes were devised.
It is highly TO the credit of the
Norfolk l~aundrymen that they have
voted to forego a speculative labor
shift advantage to themselves in or
der to preserve the employment sta
tus quo, and avoided making the
Blue Eagle the symbol of a fresh dis
tress to workers who have done moth
ing to deserve i'll treatment.

We enjoyed ourselves so much al
u first fall social, Tuesday, that
We want you to play the same game
at n Of your club parties during
the fall. Our party was called "Or
The Trial Of a Good Time Party"
Invade the attic and old clothes
trunks for costumes. If some one is
clever enough at cutting, silhouettes
may be made of each guest. These
are to be numbered and placed on the
wall for all to guess.
Now is the time to take thumb prints.
This should be announced by some one
with a strong voice. Two impressions
must be made of the right thumb, one
for you to keep and one for the per-
son to keep for Identification pur-
poses. Mystery must be the key note
of the party so don't tell what you
are to do with the finger prints.
Now let your strong voice an
n~ouncer, announce, "These (holding a
box Of small paper shoes) shoes are
to guide you in tracing a trial Of
footprints that will lead to a clue in
the mystery we have gathered to-
gether to solve. The number o, your
Sboe c1r~aS11oI 49, c-l-
your footprints. You will find they
begin under the desk and each foot
print will point in the direction of
the next one. Some Of them are hid
den, but many Of them are right out
in the open" Have a number Of small
footprints cut from paper and num-
bered hidden all over the house. The
footprints can be another cut out of
shoes Or scraps of cloth with a num-
Der on it or anything adding to my
stery. After all footprints are found,
see who can make up the best foot
print mystery story. A small magni-
flying glass is a good prize to give to
the winning person.
Let your place cards at the table
be the thumb prints you kept Of
your guest, and each must match his
own finger print before he is allow
ed to be seated. Have the guest to
pull out their Identification card,
(the thumb print they kept) and
match them up.

Take adequate fire protection, for
example, furnished by a well organ
izsd fire department equipped with
standard apparatus. It j. priceless
when your place is on fire. and if your
place never burns, it saves you mon-
ey every day on taxes, insurance,
etc.
From the standpoint Of fire pro
lection, it is important that towns
and cities realize the long period over
which money can be borrowed fo-
public improvements, the low rate of
interest charged and the 30 per cen
discount which the government gives
on the repayment of the total
amount. For example, a 100000 fire
department improvement can be
made for $4,000, applying this prin-
ciple in a general sense.
From the standpoint of giving IN
ployment o. getting the greatest
value for dollars spent, there was
never a better time for any comm
unity to make needed, self liquidatine
improvements

EXAMPLE OF SOCIAL FLOTSAM

(For The Literary Service Bureau)
He was a white man of twenty-five
years. He vas intoxicated and had
made himself a nuisance on the bus
In which we were riding. We were
nearing Chicago, when he took the
seat beside me. His breath reeked
with rum and was 50 offensive that
my first impulse was to tell his mis-
company was not desired. He opened
the conversation with 81 think you
can help me. ! heard you talking to
another mar and / liked the way you
talked. He added, 81 am down and
out; US about given up and decided
to take the suicide route and get out
Of it.
This man had lost his job. His
money was about gone, too; and he
was respondent. ! substance, I said 20
him, "You are a young man with
probably many years before you; you
r a white man, with all the oppor-
tunities in the world opened to you;
and you'd be every kind Of a coward
to give up the fight" I insisted that
there was much Of good in him. and
appealed to him to let it assert itself.
He promised to try = while longer.
We separated in Chicago. I gave him
my address and he promised to write
to me The letter has not arrived.
yet!
This Respondent young man is but
of the hundreds. Of thousands of
derelicts who make up the flotsam
and jetsam Of society, and society
must save them or be submerged by
their weight pulling down. Into this
enters no question of race or class,
the duty of the more fortunate is to
all who are unfortunate.

In a Shubert revue.
Josephine's almost legendary sue.

Everyone Pays For Fire

Safeguarding America Agalnse
Fire offers a thought that every citi-
zen should bear in mind during and
after Fire Prevention Week: You pay
for fire insurance even though you
never bought a policy in your life.
It's as certain and as inevitable as
that inescapable pair, death and tax
es. If you rent an apartment or a
building, the owner has fire insur-
ance and its cost is reflected in your
rent. Insurance must be included in
the cost of a suit or a can of beans or
a theatre ticket. The factory that
made your automobile and the dealer
that sold it have insurance-it's part
Of their operating cost, and must be
absorbed by income from sales.
As a result, the cutting down of
fire loss is everyone's business. Over
a long period Of time every fire is
reflected in the cost Of insurance
every community's insurance rating
is based on the actual experience in
that area. Lowering fire loss won't
reduce the cost Of policies this week
or next month - but it will do that
eventually, or prevent increases that
| would otherwise be made.
| If I've a movement deserved un
animous support, Fire Prevention
Week does. Officials all the way from
the councilmen Of towns to the Presi
dent Of the United States, strive t.
make it a success. Every kind O
civic and business and public organ
ization cooperates. 1t is all done il
the public interest-and the success
or failure of it is put ~squarely up t
the individual citizen.

Moral From Widows
EYnpripnce

Bankers and life insurance men are
familiar with the raids made on
widows to induce them, in their mex
perience, to invest the proceeds of
their husbands life insurance poll
cies in wildcat securities. Many Of
the arguments in favor of life insur-
ance trusts, monthly income insur-
ance and annuities, are based on this
danger, which is very real and vi
great loss and hardship in thousands
of cases.
The Insurance Field cites an inter-
esting case Of a widow who was re-
Gently swindled out Of investments
made with insurance money paid oy-
er twenty years ago. The money was
recovered for the widow by the agent
who insured her husband thirty years
previously He is the kind of agent
who believes he owes service to his
clients, even after policies are paid
Armed with the facts, he went half
way across the United States to the
office of the offending company and.
with the aid of the local district at
torney, secured the return Of every
cent.
The loss Of money, as in this case.
is very common. It's return is un
common The moral is. Don't specu-
with insurance funds; secure the
aid Of the insurance company or 4
responsible agency for their invest
ment.
