Equal rights for "Jews, Gentiles
and Negroes" especially in the
public restaurant in the House
side of the Capitol, was the slogan
Of Representative Oscar De Priest.
Negro Republican, Of Chicago as
he waged a one-man battle to ex-
tend privileges to the members Of
his own race.

"Not so long as I am in charge
Of the House Accounts Com
mittee."

refusal of restaurant employees to
serve his secretary, Morris Lewis,
and a Negro friend. AS a member

the privileges Of the restaurant,

clude employees or friends Of the

to act that way toward the
Negroes, we might as we'll have
a showdown now. That is q
public restaurant and everybody
ought to have the right to eat
there. / am going to insist on

NEW BEAN BANS
DISEASE GERM

Now that the NRA Is safely
under way, the AAA functioning
on all six, and the PWA ready

Of the disease, has been devel-
oped and is now on the market.
