of the school house on the Acres. -
This permission was later revoked,
due to the opposition Of Negro mis-
leaders and Klan elements, who
raised the pretext that the pres
ence of Ruby Bates would lead to
riot and violence"
The Committee decided to hold
the meeting in front of the school
house, with the result that more
than 400 persons sstended and
pledged their full support to the
Scottsboro defense, unanimously
denouncing the local politicians and
School Board and adopting protest
resolutions to be sent to President
Wilson, Governor B. M. Miller of
Alabama and the U. S. Supreme

The committee, learning of plans
by the Klan to do violence to Ruby

Germany and Austria alone.
A dispute arose as to whether the
munition makers were rearming all
of Europe. Senator Vandenburg ap-
parently wished to localize the sales
to Germany, and shield the sales
to the other imperialist powers. But
that the situation did apply to the
rearming of Germany was admitted
by Major K. K. v. Casey, head of
the smokeless powder department of
the du Pont trust.
Documents were read from the
files of the du Pont concern which
quoted Allen w. Dulles, a State De-
partment official, as saying in 1925
that he was aware" of these ship
ments to Germany. A letter from
Aiken Simons, vice-chairman of the
du Pont company on Oct. IS stated
that Mr. Dulles said that he was
aware that powder and other NUM-
tions were shipped out of Germany
with the connivance of the Allies
the reason being that the resulting
sales swelled the reparations' fund" :"

reopen the case.
Walker Jittery
Stanley Walker, City Editor of
the conservative New York Herald
Tribune, appeared with group of
editors from all over the country
who recited their publishers lines
in familiar schoolboy fashion.
Walker went completely jittery and
pale as he stammered his dema-
gogic attack on the reporters fight
to obtain adequate minimum code
wages.
In addition to Broun, the Guild
delegation included Jonathan Eddy,
executive secretary; Morris Ernst,
counsel; Herman Volk and j..
Andrew Crafts, statisticians; Dan
de Souza, president of the Washing
ton Guild; Carl Randau, president
of the New York Guild; and Morris
Watson, chairman Of the Guild
Press Association committee.
Addressing acting Division Ad-
miniStrator Tate, Broun stated
II wish to withdraw my appear
ance from this hearing and the APP
pearance of all other representa-
tives of the American Newspaper
Guild. We had come prepared to
show you that on the average an
American newspaperman must work
for 20 years before he achieves a
salary of $40 a week, and the fic-

proposals which, when translated
into dollars mean no contribution
to unemployment or additional
purchasing power.

1--WE are Withdrawing now be-
cause of the extraordinary action
of the N. R. A. in forcing the re-
opening of the Jennings case. On
Monday the Guild had won. 1t
had won its first significant victory
at the hands of any Board in Wash
ington and we are quite ready to
applaud the courage of that deci-
sion.
"On Tuesday we learn that the
case has been reopened. AT whose
request? Not at the request of
the Guild or Mr.. Hearst, the two
interested parties, but Il quote
from the free columns of the Wash
ington Herald at the request of the
Acting General Counsel for the Ma
tional Recovery Administration.
I'm other words, when that fast
running back, Elisha Hanson, was
thrown for loss it was the N. R.
A. itself which sent a substitute to
take his place.

WOODSON CENTER
NEWS
SIX YEAR OLD NURSERY PLAN
OF WOODSON CENTER GROWS
INTO COMMUNITY

Back in 1928, Woodson Center be-
gan its first work with pre-school
children at it's old location, 20 and r
Streets, when the Center was known
as the Cultural Center. In those days
the idea was new and somewhat novel
to the community, and parents sent
their children daily because they APP
preciated having a place where the
'run-abouts" could live fully some
hours of the day. This Nursery was
one OF the first activities begun I'M
der the direction Of Mrs. M. L.
Rhone, Head Resident of Woodson
Center. Miss Lucy Mae Stamps was
the very first teacher of these wee
tots, and following her was Mrs.
Charlotte Crawford, whom the Cen
ter released to the Family Welfare;
and Mrs. Mildred Aston Washington
began teaching these nursery child
rem. She served faithfully and well
with the Nursery Group from 1929
till February 1884, when the children
were transferred into the school sys-
tenn, becoming pupils Of the West
side School Nursery, Monday, Feb
ruary 5th.
Nursery Closes at Woodson Center,
Friday, February 2, 1884
Children Of the Nursery and their
mothers enjoyed a "Send off Party"
in honor of their t~ransference from
the Center Nursery to the Westside
School Nursery School. This trans
ference Of the Nursery Children of
Woodson Center into the city school
system is a real "%event" and marks
the beginning" Of a real education
al adventure" in which Woodson
Center played its part, even in a
small way, thereby having a hand in
this achievement for this neighbor-
hood.
Woodson Center rejoices with
Omaha over the opening Of this Muir
sery School, in a neighborhood where
it is most needed, serving all of the
children in the same way as the 9TH
er school children are being served.
This new activity Of the public school
system not only affords an oppor-
tunity for the pre-school children,
but it also offers an opportunity to
the Negroes of Omaha in that of

it's teachers is a Negro, with Univer-
sity training. This appointment in a
school with a very large percentage
Of Negro children, incidentally be-
gins again the employment of Ne
groes in the city school system for
the first time in many years.
Miss Catherine Williams 1888 gra-
duate of the University Of Nebraska
has been appointed assistant to the
Director of this Nursery School. Miss
Williams, it will be remember, has
been a faithful volunteer of Woodson
Center for a number Of years, serv-
ing in the Vocation School and teach
ing other ~recreational classes. She
has been a regular member of the
Center's staff since June 1888. When
this opportunity came, Woodson
Center was happi to release her for
the new position.
