One summer, while he was touring
the entertainment centers Of Europe,
he stopped long enough to set new
records for running backward. He
challenged Americas fastest track
men III novelty races and won, rum
ing seventy-five yards backward in
less time than it took then to. run
100 yards forward. Among those
who went down in defeat were Char
les Paddock, Chef Brown and Howard
Drew. He made the seventy-five
yards backward run in a trifle more
than eight seconds and 100 yards in
Is seconds.
It is claimed that his brilliant run
ming is partly due to the perfect
breath control and effortless move
ment he has learned in dancing.
Learned, that is, unconsciously. For
this great tap dancer has never had
a teacher, even though he himself
has instructed many, among them the
late Florence Mills and Linda. He
started to dance at approximately the
same time that he started to walk.
No one ever taught him a routine.
When he hummed a tune, steps Just
came to him. He admits quite simply
that his ideas for his particular rem
dition of buck and wing come to him
in dreams.
II dream" he Unce said, that l am
dancing before some important per-
son in some foreign country, and
remember what | dream and work if
out fer the stage" In this fashion,
he evolved the most remarkable of
his performances, that of doing a
buck and wing up and down a flight
Of steps that, with the floor as a
starting point, make the intervals of
the minstrel, Eddie Leonard. And
even now, at an age when most men
indulge in nothing more strenuous
than around Of golf. Bill is tapping
out rythms ~tirelessly, each night, as
the star Of the stage revue at the
Casino de Paree, remaining supreme

NEAR SLAVERY REVEALED
IN MISSISSIPPI STUDY

WASHINGTON, January 23-(C
NS)-The plight of Negro farm
families in rural Mississippi was
brought out in bold relief in a report
made public this week by the Joint
Committee on National Recovery
The report was based on question
aires sent by DR.. w. A. c. Hughes,
Of the Homes Mission Board Of the
Methodist Episcopal Church to Ne
gro ministers in Northern Mississ-
ippi. The answers to these question
mares were compiled by the research
division of the Joint Committee.
On the basis Of returns it was
roughly estimated that less than IL
per cent ef the Negro population in
80 counties in Northern Mississippi
were employed. Reports Of discrim-
ination in employment Of Negroes in
public works, of discharge Of Negro
es from plantations and other abuses
were widespread. Thus for example
"a out Of IS ministers answering the
questionable stated that in their ex-
p~erience Negroes were Disseminated
against BY the Red Cross, BY local
and Federal relief agencies and in
the distribution Of jobs. Instances
were reported of white plantation
owners telling Federal employment
officers not to give their Negroes
jobs" because they could take care
of them. In this way hundreds Of coll
ored men were kept out Of employ
ment.
Domestic Wages Low
A prevailing wage less than $500
a week was reported by the ministers
for Negro women who work as
domestics. Wages as low as rs cents
a week were reported in one county,
and wages Of from rs cents to $1.00
were reported IS quite m m For
ioing the weekly washing for a COM
plete family the wage Of so cents a
washing was reported. More women
were employed in the area covered
than men, an analysis of the ans
wers to the QUESTIONABLE showed.
S~harecroppers Condition Horrible
Condition of Negro sharecroppers
were shown by the report to be SER
ious. A conservative estimate show
ed that more than 1000 Negro farm
ers plowed up their cotton and were
entitled to payment from the govern

MANY ORGANIZATIONS TO

OCIfOh1 llOAN BILL
New York, Jan. 19.-At a meeting
held last Monday at the national Of

representatives from the Public AT

ems Christian Association, the
American Civil Liberties Union, the

ment. Very few actually received
their checks. U%nscrupulous landlords
kept the checks and refused to turn
them over to the Negro sharecrop-
pers.
Is This Slavery?
Detailed accoun Of this process
was contained in statements taken
from a number Of ministers, some of
them sharecroppers themselves. One
striking account Of injustice was as
follows; (name Of plantation with
hcld) Approximately 200 Negro
families live on this plantation-
is the master. He is a cruel master
and will not feed his folks. He gave
them yellow corn meal and cheap
meat and expected them to work
through the winter. He does not feed
and clothe them. In the spring they
began to leave and he pursued them
Some got away, some he caught and
brought back and treated them cruel
ly. He had some arrested at West
Point and some at Macon. This was
on Sunday On Monday three Of the
men were whipped numerically in
the town. No one said anything To
him. One white woman heard them
screaming. She tainted and her hus-
band went down and asked him to
stop. He took the others out in the
country and whipped them. You could
hear their screams for quarter of a
mile.
Steals Tenants Checks
He had them pillow up their cottoh.
The government sent the checks. Mr..
II held the checks. he said 50
many names had to 20 On them they
would have to have a trustee sign for
them. The trustee was b get the
checks cashed and give them the
money. They have not seen the mon
ey or the checks"
Other conditions equally az bad
stand out in the report. Strong pro
test against these injustices was re-
gistered with Chester c. Davis, head
of the Agricultural Adjustment Ad-
ministration in charge Of the cotton
acreage reduction program and to
Harry L. Hopkins, Federal Emer-
gency Relief Administration, by the
Joint Committee on National Re-
covery, composed Of % national Or
CARNATIONS.

METHODIST CHURCH ORGAN

WASHINGTON, January 22+(CN
S)@Subsistence Homestead projects
TO the number of fifteen to provide
for approximately 2700 settler fam
lies in several States, both North
and South. fails to provide in any
way for Negro families. In July last,
the Division Of Subsistence Home
steads, a unit in the Department of
the Interior, was formed to assist in
providing aid for the redistribution
of the overbalance of population in
Industrial centers." An allotment of
$25, 000, 900 was made available to the
Division for making loans for and
otherwise aid in, the purchase Of sub
sistence homesteads; the moneys
collected as repayments Of said loans
to constitute a revolving fund to be
administered as directed by the Sc
cretary Of the Interior. 1t was an
nounced in 'the purpose and po-
licies" Of the Division that in "the
program of the Division full consid-
Grafton will be given to demonstra-
ton projects for Negroes and other
racial groups" And in promulgating
that as part Of the program it was
also set forth that "the impact Of the
depression in both agriculture and
industry has been particularly severe
upon the Negro"
With these announcements in
mind. several efforts have been made
of late, to ascertain just what pro-
visions are being made to take care
of those upon whom "the impact of
the depression has been particularly
severe" since Negroes in many of
the States are getting short-shifts
in many projects of the Federal En-
Urgency Administration of Public
Works.
The Secretary of the Interior up TO
January 20 had announced plans for
the establishment of fifteen subsist-
ence homestead projects in several
States, including New Jersey, Ind
lana, Ohio, Wisconsin, North Caro-
lima, Alabama, Georgia, Pennsylvan-
ia, Delaware, Tennessee; two in West
Virginia; and five each in Mississ-
ippi and Texas.
To date, however, no information
is available as to how the Negro pop
ulation Of the country is to be pro
vided for.
Early in October, the Arthur Dale
farm property situated near the
R~eedsville, West Virginia postoffice
was purchased by the Government
and the Subsistence Homestead Divi-
sion announced that on that 1,1O(
acre tract in Preston County woulC
be established "a demonstration pro.
ject in d~ecentralized industry for 200
families" This first project known
as the Reedsville project is located
in Preston County, West Virginia
about IS miles almost due west of
Cumberland, Maryland, and about 2e
miles south Of U%niontown, Pennsy-
vania. It was first announced as

ed coal mine area, most of the set
tier families will be removed to
Reedsville.
1t develops that the settlers will
be chosen from applicants-unem-
ployed coal miners formerly employ
ed in Monongalia County coal mines.
Approximately 200 Negro miners
formerly employed in the nearby
coal regions and representing q Ne
gro population Of some 800 persons
are among those who have filed ap-
plications in due form for the home
steads. To date the application of no
Negro has been approved, although
at least one half Of the 200 home
steads have been allotted to others.
Some Of these Negro coal miners
have been without steady employ
ment for four years or more, and it
is stated that the prospects for re-
employment there has vanished.
They have been stranded with short
shifts in the industry and have bees
largely dependent on public and pri-
vate relief, in recent years, with
their own material ex-
hausted. This is also true Of the
white miners Of the surrounding
county, who have to date received all
of the allotted homesteads. The fill
ing of these applications and its re-
sultant effects in the Department of
the Interior is claimed to have
brought forth the Clark Foreman
outburst that II am sick and tired Of
being a complainer." Mr.. Foreman
who is adviser on the Economic
Status of Negroes is attached to the
Department of the Interior where his
duties entail special attention to the
manner and extent to which Negro
es are sharing in the results of the
operation of the National Recovery
Act" and is quoted as saying just
after the Reedsville project was an
nounced: II am sick and tired Of be-
ing a complainer. | mean that, in
stead of going to various depart
ments of the government and COM
plain that Negroes are being dis
eliminated against in the national
4 reconstruction, | want to see plans
worked out whereby constructive
work can be done for them"
Continuing Mr.. Foreman is quot
ed as saying: "Mr. w. E. B. Dubois,
the famous Negro leader says: that
the only way the Negro can develop
is through group effort. He is quite
right. l propose that the Public
Works Administration help him get
started in building his own self-suf-
ficient communities"
"Under the subsistence homesteads
plan Negroes can have little plots Of
ground to sustain themselves, with a
beginning in housing. With that as a
municipal start, financed by their
own people, and by the Public Works
Administration, they would construct
their own public utilities. With
power and fuel and water developed
by their own activities, they could
next turn to industry"
Mr.. Foreman was at once denounc-
ed by many as a "Segregatiorist" to
