SCOTTSBORO TRIAL WILL HELP
NEGRO RACE BOY VICTIMS ARE
TRUE HEROES
(By John L. Spivak)

New York, Dec. Is, CAMP Seven
teen more dramatic days from Nov
einber 20 to December 6 have become
a part Of the crazy quilt pattern If
Scottsboro. write crazy quilt. but I
know that that is not all, the full i'm
preston made on one by the bizarre
facets of social attitudes exposed in
this tremendously important contest
between justice, as defined in law and
ethics, and human nature as it is found
in Alabama.
The primary objects in the trials
have been simple, life and death. On
the one side, the State of Alabama
demands death Of nine Negro boys for
the alleged rape of two tramp white
vsMs. On the other. Negroes and other
justice loving people ask that their
lives be spared because they did not
commit the crime charged against
them.
Those who sought death have won.
Three time has Haywood Patterson
been condemned to die Twice has d
like fate been pronounced against
Clarence Norris, Once death stared
SIX Of the other seven boys in the face
For three years this coming April, these
boys will have lived with death as
haunt and life as a hope, boys who had
not yet learned the full meaning of life.
But although the primary objects Of
both the state and the defense in the
trials are easily seen, they are by no
means the dominant forces actuating
either the prosecution or the defense
It is doubtful now whether life or
death either mean so much to the boys
themselves as the secondary object
tives toward which the state defense
strive.

MOTHERS
(By Mrs. Mamie L. Johnson)
R. 2 Box 1877 Meridian, Miss.

Mary, mother of Jesus when the light
grew dim in the West, did you hold
your baby as I hold mine anxious close
to your breast?
Did you look out over the hillside
warm in the last red sum.
And wonder what of the coming days
for that dear life just begun?
I know as His eyes were closing with
sleep that were heavy and sweet
You touched the precious fingers and
lifted the dimpled feet,
You drew the blanket about Him just
as l cover my own
And kissed Him and laid Him down in
the dark and left Him there alone.
When you went back to your kitchen
there is always So much to do
Were you sure that nothing could hap
pen to take Him away from you
Or did you sometimes grow frightened
and tiptoe back to see,
If yous child was safe where you laid
Him were you a foolish mother like
me?
Mary, mother of Jesus the mothers of
all the world
Know how your trembling heart was
held in those baby fingers curled,
And when we fear for our darlings and
cuddle them close we know
That we share your pain and your
glory and are sure you would wish
it so.

of God in Christ Jesus. philippians 3
14).
From Caesarea the hand of God dir
ected Paul to Rome travelling by ship
He suffered many hardships on his
way to Rome, but he reached there in
safety, where he soon won the hearts
of his brethren by his ability to preach
the gospel of Jesus Christ to the little
church which was established in the
ghetto of the city of Rome. He sum-
moned to his side the leading men of
his race and preached to them outlin-
ing to them the history of Jesus Christ,
and the hope that His coming into the
world had brought. This hope had
been revealed to him through the Scrip
ture, and he desired to spread the same
doctrine throughout the ends of the
earth. For two whole years Paul prea-
ched in his own hired house in Rome,
nc man forbidding him; and he became
a great source of power for the coming
KINGDOM Of God.
NOTES ON THE TEXT
Verse II. After the shipwreck on
the island of Melita it was three mo-
nths before the centurion in charge OF
Paul the prisoner could find ship to
continue the Journey TO Rome. Cas-
tor and Pollux were the tuin sons OF
Zeus and Leda, who were regarded as
the protecting gods of Sailors. Their
images were carried as figurehead on
the PROV of the ship.
Verse. Syracuse. The famous capl-
tai of Sicily located on the southeastern
extremity. 1t was famous for its clas-
steal hi4 DRY.
Verse 10. Rhegium. The modern
ReeFio, situated in southern Italy on
the Strait of Messina about seventy
miles North of Syracuse.
/ Verse IA. Paul found Christian
Church established there which detain-
ed him for seven days.
/ Verse Is. Appii forum and the three
taverns. Two towns on the road to
Rome, about forty three and thirty
three miles, respectively, from Rome.
Verse 16. Although guarded by a
soldier, to whom he was chained, 1t
was a kindness to Paul to permit him
ia live in an apartment rather than in
the camp for prisoners.
Verse %. Concerning this sect. Re-
ference is made to the Nazarenes refrr-
ed to in Acts "a 5.
Verse 80. The events of these two
wears are not related in detail. The
Brook of Acts ends abruptly. What be-
came of Paul? The record does not
say; but there is reason to believe that
he was acquitted at his trial; that he
continued his Missionary travels, pre-
haps even visiting Spain that he was
arrested and carried to Rome the Sc
cond time tried again, convicted and

HORSES DIE OF
AN OLD MALADY
Kent and Sussex Animals Be-
lieved To Be Victims of
a Forage Poison
EXAMINATION ORDERED

More than 40 horses, valued at
more than $4,000 have died during
the past few weeks from a dis
ease believed by some veterinar-
ians to be the blind staggers,"
caused by eating forage affected
by mold The disease is also
known as forage poisoning"
Many of the horses fatally strick-
en- were in the neighborhood of
Little Creek, Leipsic and Dover in
Kent county According to farm
ers in Kent county the disease was
aggravated by the recent storm,
the wheat stubble, hay and grain
still in the fields, becoming rotted
and moldy from the excess rain.
George Craig, of near Little
Creek, lost two of his best horses
and several others are suffering
from the ailment. In the Milford
section of Sussex county more
than 80 horses have died and on
the Eastern Shore of Maryland
similar conditions are said to ex-
ist.. DR.. c. I. Hoch, of Whining
ton, said that no reports of any
serious spread of the disease had
been reported. Dr. Frederick P.
Ruhl, of Milford, said there was
no question, but that it is the
blind staggers,' while DR. James
r. West, of Milford, said he was
not sure that it was that disease.
Sussex county veterinarians have
sent the heads of several horses
to laboratory in California for
examination where a similar epi
demic existed several years ago.

WELFARE HOME
TO OOPEN SEPT. 25
Every Effort Being Made To
Get Building and Equip
ment By That Time
PERSONNEL OF STAFF

The Delaware State Welfare
Commission met last week with
the Trustees of the Delaware
State Hospital at Farnhurst to
discuss some of the problems of
the Commission in connection
with transfer of patients from the
County Almshouse to the new
Welfare Home at Smyrna, now
being completed. The Welfare
Commission first attended the reg
ular meeting of the Trustees of
the Poor to familiarize themselves
with the proceedings of the insti-
tuition. Later the two Commits
sions had lunch together after
which the various problems of the
bodies were discussed. 1t develop
ed that the Welfare Home by rea-
son of lack of adequate facilities
will be unable to accommodate all
of the patients of the three county
almshouses at the present time, or
until additional units are made
possible. This offered a problem
which has recently been giving the
Welfare Commission much con-
Germ. The result of the conference
will probably be thai some of the
patients from the county aims
house who canot be taken into the
Welfare Home at the present time
may be furnished accommodations
in one wing of the State hospital,
with the maintenance cost borne
by the Welfare Commission until
such time as these patients may
be accommodated at the Welfare
Home. DIR. G. L. Candee was the
only member of the Welfare Com
mission absent and the plans for
this arrangement will doubtless
be consummated on his return
next week. The inspection of the
Welfare Home by the Commission

ing Explained By Rus
sell E. Wilson
} SMYRNA DELEGATES

According to the large number
of inquiries being received at the
office of County Agent Russell E.
Wilson in regard to the wheat
acreage adjustment and allotment
plan of the Federal government,
many Kent county wheat growers
will sign applications for con-
tracts within the next week or ten
days, and the community and
county organization program is
being completed as rapidly as pos
sible in order that those farmers
who sign these allotment con-
tracts will receive the benefit pay
ments within a short time. In the
plan of organization the county
has been divided according to the
representative districts, and those
wheat growers who have signed
contract applications are entitled
to vote for three farmers who will
serve on a local committee for
each district. One member of
each district committee is being
selected to represent that district
in the county wheat production
control association, from the per-
sonnel of which three growers
will be elected to serve on the
county allotment committee
whose duty will be to pass upon all
applications from the farmers in
this county who apply for allot-
ment contracts for the next two
years. At the second series of
community meetings now being
held in Kent county these contract
applications are being explained
by the county agent, who is also
the wheat administrator by ap-
pointment from Secretary of Ag-
riculture, Henry A. Wallace, and
district committees are being
elected by those wheat farmers
who have agreed to enter this
government allotment plan to re-
duce the wheat acreage Is per-
cent of the past three-year aver

NEW SENIOR OFFICERS

Under the leadership of a COM
petent staff of teachers and as
sistants, the public school swung
into action with less friction and
less conflict than in any former
year. After the first day of school
it appeared as though the school
had been in action for several
months.-On Saturday, September
9th, those pupils who were unfor-
tunate enough to have failed sub
jects last June were given an OPP
portunity, provided they had
shown evidence of preparation, to
take denominations and so make
up the deficiency.-Our first as
sembly program was held yester-
day (Tuesday) and was under the
guidance and supervision of Miss
Easton, Music Instructor. The
program consisted of chorus sing
ing.-The officers of the various
classes were elected this week.
The officers of the Senior class
are as follows: President, Ethel

TOMATOES ON THE WANE TAKE
A JUMP TO As CENTS A BASKET

Tomatoes, the shortest crop in
years, are on the wane. Due to
this shortage the market yester-
day and to-day jumped from Csc
and 30c last week to 40c and 45c
this week with the trend toward
higher market while the crop
lasts. There is said to be a scram-
BILE among buyers from ketchup
bottlers and Gamers to buy suf-
ficient at these higher prices.
Further advance to 80 cents by
the last part of the week is antic-
ipated by some of those who re-
call past short crops of tomatoes
and the effect on prices. Farmers
are said to be selling the tomatoes
in the open market. "bootlegging
on their contracts of last March,
and Gamers are seriously disturb
ed as to how they are to fill their
contracts made in March and
