Hill Tells Changers
of River Development
FINLEY

/. Friday night was Booster
Night" at the Finley grange and
several visitors were present,
among whom was Representative
Knute Hill of Prosser, who gave an
interesting talk on the development
of the Columbia river and also up
on the benefits to be derived from
being member of the grange. We
must not judge by what the local
grange has accomplished, but by
that of the entire state. We learn
ed that we have 10000 members
in Washington alone and that the
savings to some extensive farmers
has reached as high as $500 from
savings in gas and insurance for
both Life and personal property,
and of many other activities car
ried on by the organization. Many
people do not know that the rural
mail service is a project furthered
by the grange.
The local grange is going for
ward rapidly. Five new members
were obligated and two of the Fin
ley teachers names were balloted
upon.
An interesting program was
given, of which the monologue by
Mrs. Shorty Erickson deserves
special mention. After the program
delicious lunch was served and
a delightful social hour followed.

IMMORAL FILMS UNDER FIRE

Catholics of the United States recently launched

Protestant church organizations Joined in the movement
The campaign is being ntehgently and vigorous

lures
The producers srenuously protest, claiming that
the elimination of such films already hand will cause
them to lose millions dollars in anceled contracts and
wasted labor and materials This is true. but the financial
loss to the film producers will be relatively small in COM
parison the moral social and economic loss which So
ciety will suffer- by the continual showing of indecent
super-sensua films. Such movie pictures
tend TO morals create youthful criminals and add

AN EPIDEMIC OF LABOR STRIKES

The 'ntod states to-day face to face with an
epidemic major Industrial strikes and threatened walk
outs These labor rcNotS due chiefly to the fact that
the baronS Of Anne rican industry and wealth have not
vet fully realized that from on the workers of this
country intend to be recognized and determined to
have a fair share of the profits of labor
Just now. national attention is focused upon Cali
forna At this writing the strike holding San Francisco
and neghboring cities in its iron grip.
The trouble began not long ago when the long
shoremen and marine workers Of the California coast
manded better pay and improved working conditions
They went strike and their employers attempted to
replace them with scab labor and the present situation
gradually developed
There are also labor troubles in Minnesota Mary
land Alabama and elsewhere. 1t is interesting observe
that the majority of the strikers in the mining districts
Birmingham. Alabama Negroes who previously
would not have dared to take such drastic step in that
locality Not few Negroes also numbered among the
workers who lately went strike in the textile mills
of Alabama but in this case, the majority Of the aborers
involved are white.
In the present crisis several significant facts stand
First of ALL note that the walk-outs are not con-
fined to city section but have diff
ferent localities from Pacific to the Atlantic from the
Great Lakes to the far South Secondly the strikes are
not confined to single industry but include
industrial drade groups Lastly negro workers as well
white laborers boldly participating in strikes
In connection with the big general strike in San
Francisco significant thing is this The man at the head
OF the strike Is foregner-an Australian--of whom
very little is known. We do not know his attitude toward
Negro labor, but do know that race prejudice is so
strong in Australia that Negroes and Japanese bar
red from that country We hope, however, that
tempt will be made to exclude Negro stevedores long
shoremen from the benefits to be derived from the San
Francisco strike
The California labor troubles and the strikes in
other sections of the country, causing Government
officials and captains of industry little uneasness
These scattered strikes, which represent the organized
protest Of workers against the injustice and greed
American capitalists hardly to be compared to the
still greater strikes that sweep the entire nation
owners and taxpayers Of country given the new
DEAL they demand.

WHERE pEMoCRACY REIGNs

In all washington, the cradle OF
democracy, there is but one place
where all races may go and be on a
common level
This place is not a church or
cathedral where one hears much
preaching about the brotherhood
OF man. and OF Christ who made no
distinction as to race or color.
This place Is not the halls OF
Justice on Capitol Hill where one
can hear much braying during
congress) OF the land of the free
and home OF the brave. In these
same halls one also hears OF a con-
stitution which guarantees all men
equality. Occasionally one hears OF
certain amendments in this docu-
ment-n namely the Thirteenth, Four
teenth and Fifteenth.
Griffith Stadium, a baseball park
where many ministers tell us not
to go. Is the only spot in Washing
ton where all races congregate and
for period OF an hour or so, color
is forgotten. II will be through
such places as these that race prob
lens. prejudice and racial hatreds
will be solved. and not In congress
or Observation-Disclosures Tribune.

GREEN PASTURES CAMP
By J. Edward Mccall

Green Pastures Camp oerlooks a lake
Where sunbeams dance and lilies float;
It's fields are green, and waters STILL
Like the pastures of which the Psalmlst wrote
From verdant meadows woods, and dells,
Bright wildflowers watt their perfume rare,
And wild birds in the shrubs and trees,
Pour forth sweet music on the air
The camp near Grass Lake, Michigan,
Sits on a hillside green and high,
And towering birches round about
Stand guard, their arms raised toward the SKY .
The trees are big and tall and straight
Friendly and firm shetering rocks;
They look like shepherds a hill,
Watching DER their precious flocks.
The camp is modern and equipped
With office building, dining hall,
Ten cottages for girls and boys,
kitchen, laundry plant and all.
Each summer to this ideal camp,
From humble home and city sum-
Seeking Gods outdoors and the sun,
Five hundred colored children come.
Conducted by the Urban League
In charge of shepherds kind and wise,
Green Pastures Camp, for small dark lambs,
Is like an earthly paradise.
The man who gave this summer CAMP
James Couzens. childhood's friend in-need,
viii live enshrned within the hearts
OF children of each race and creed.

PAGE MIR. RIPLEY

Believe II or not, Southern white
womsn have been more active In
TIE fight against lynchings than
Southern black women, and yet less
than one-third of the persons
lynched are white.
Organized white Mississippi wo-
men have just wired Governor Sen
nett Conner of their State TO ask
the next legislature to pass a law
automatically removing police Of
Ulcers who lose" their prisoners
10 lynching mobs. Other groups OF
white women In every Southern
State have come out strongly
against mob violence and urged
passage of an anti-lynching law by
Congress. Nor Is this a recent ac-
tivity on the part of militant South
ern white women. They have been
on the job moulding opinion for
even-handed justice and against
mob violence for the past decade.
Meantime, there has yet TO be
made evident any such activity on
the part of Southern black women
who certainly suffer the most from
lynching, injustice and unfairness.

We have been out on the lake

We have more choice fish than
we can possibly eat. Rev. Hill and

The restaurants were TO be non

provide for their Ownsexpenses. The
white restaurant succeeded in
achieving this objective but the
colorcd restaurant ran behind. Rev.
Michaux and his flock took II over
on a six months trial period. Mr..
McFadden loaning the equipment

the church of God cook and serve
the food. Some idea of the scope OF
the venture may be gained by the
fact that they buy 100pounds or
baking powder a montha and buy
IL from a Negro salesman.
The six months probationary
period ended last month. The res
taurant still runs deficit which Is
