IN OHIO FLOOD

LANCASTER, Ohio, July 80
G.N.S0 -Ohio'S rich Hooking Val
ley today surveyed its flood loss
and spartanly set to work repair
ing the damage.
Some sources estimated damage
in Fairfield, Hooking and adjacent
counties at million dollars, but
the loss was so far-flung it could
not accurately be gagged.
Thus far only one death has
been reported, that of Clarkson
Carpenter, drowned at Rockbridge
when he stood up in a rowboat,
upsetting it.
Slowly the muddy waters re-
coded from homes in southern
and western Lancaster, leaving
debris and damage in many in
stances irreparable.
Last night hundreds of home
less slept in vacant Storerooms
here on mattresses provided by
the Federal relief agency after
being fed at soup kitchens hastily

MANY IN LINE
FOR POST OF
NRA HEAD

With James O'Neill, NRA chair
man. leaving his post tomorrow to
return to New York to take UP
his duties as vice president Of the
Guaranty Trust Company, several
names of possible successors to
his post at NRA have been put
forward.
Walter White, one of the pio-
neers of the original NRA organi.
zation, is reported to have prime
standing with the President, and
his friends confidently predict
that he will be appointed. In
fact, he seems to be strong con-
tender for the place against Ma
jor George Berry, president Of the
PreSSmen's Union, who represents
labor on the present NRA advisory
board.
Mr.. White has been acting as
a contact man between NRA and
industry.
Another NRA official with out
side possibilities is DR.. Leon C.
Marshall, executive secretary Of
the National Industrial Recovery
Board. Also, Alvin Brown, review
officer of the MIRA, is in the goS-
sip.
President Roosevelt has main
tanned strict silence as to Chair
man O'Neill's successor. 1t is be-
lieved that the life of NRA is linn
tied, and that after sufficient in
formation as to industrial and
economic conditions is collected
by the present organization the
NRA board and entire organiza-
ton will be diSbanded,

Many people have become discouraged
because they have been led to believe
that there is no remedy that will reduce
swollen veins and punches. \
If you will get a two-ounce original
bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil (full

and morning as directed, you should
quickly notice an improvement which
may continue until the veins and punches
are reduced to normal.

appointed with it's use can have their

UNION DEMANDS RIGHT OF

One Of the maid demands Of

union reports that the manage

Mr.. A. Boyd, a young Irish or
ganizer commented:
eve understand that in want
ing up to drop this demand the
management is trying to separate
the white managers who are on
Strike from the Negro clerks
which would weaken our union.
On the other hand the refusal to

take away the support of the Ne

WHEN THE SOUL LOOKS
THROUGH THE EYES
BY r. A. Adams

(For The Literary Service Bureau)
When the soul looks through the eyes,
Weak the cleverest disguise;
For it is no task, to see,
Honesty, sincerity,
Or determine otherwise,
When the soul looks through the eyes.
When the soul looks through the eyes,
Matters not how hard one tries,
Little it's he can conceal,
But most surely will reveal
What in language he denies,
When the soul looks through the eyes,
When the soul looks through the eyes,
1t would be a great surprise,
Could we even partly know,
Just how much of US we show,
That our oily word bellies,
When the soul looks through the eyes.

MOBILE N A A C p SECURES
IMPROVED r. r. FACILITIES

-
Mobile, Ala, April 5.-The Mobile
branch Of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colpred Peo-
pie. which is leading the fight for
equafSaccomm6dations and facilities
for colored passengers on railroads Of
the South, announces that the South
ern IS pushing its work in improving
passenger Coaches and facilities for
colored passengers.
Cars in operation on the Southern
between Mobile and Birmingham now
provide for colored passengers a dress
ing for women, equipped identi-
cally as are rooms for white women.
The smoker for men has similar inn
provements.
Tho Southern is now affording col
ored passengers a service that is iden-
teal to that furnished white passen-
gers in every respect, and is far super
ior to that furnished by any other
railroad entering Mobile; the Mobile
& Ohio is furnishing the next best
service. Southern and Mobile & Ohio
cars are also equipped with electric
fans. Mr.. Norris assured the branch
that such improvement is also being
made on the Southern line between
New Orleans and Cincinnati.
The matter of overcrowding N Mo-
bile and Ohio trains between Mobile
and SStS. Louis has been brought to
the attention of Stanon Curtis, gener-
al passenger agent, who advised the
branch that the matter would be
checked.
T. E. Brooks, vice-president Of the
Louisville & Nashville railroad, has
advised the branch that all trains
which have not heretofore provided
wash bowl in coach toilets for colored
made passengers, would soon have the
facility installed. While colored pas
sengers are now securing an improved
coach service on the l.. & Ms fast
Pan-American, since the branch filed
complaint Of discrimina ion with the
Interstate Commerce Commission a
e. nst several of the leading southern
railroads, including the l.. & N. and
specifically naming its Pan-American
in the complaint, Mr.. Brooks would
not assure the branch that individual
rel ming and revolving seats would
be furnished colored passengers on
that train such as is furnished whites.
As a consequence, the branch may find
it necessary to push before the l. C. c..
a charge of discrimination in that
particular instance.
j. L. LeFlore, secretary Of the Mo
bile branch has had charge Of the in
vestigations to determine discrimina-
tions on the leading southern railroad
systems east of the Mississippi river.
He made a study of Interstate Com
merce laws and filed complaint agains
the railroads under Section 8, Para
graph l, which prohibits "any com
mon carrier subject to the provisions
of this Act (the Interstate Commerce
Act) to make or give any undue c
unreasonable preference or advantage
to any particular person, companv.
firm or to subject any particular per-
son, company, firm . to any undue
or unreasonable prejudice Of disadvan-
tage whatso ever" The complaint,
were filed with Director w. P. Bartel
Bureau of Service of the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
MI. LeFlore stated that the Allan
tic Coast Line, Frisco and Seaboard
Air Line, comprising the last three
big systems not already investigated
would be examined when funds arr
available.
