TOWN TOPICS

way is one step nearer again to
actual construction. The lower
house of Congress passed this
week the rivers and harbors
omnibus bill which included the
canal for which the people here
have fought for more than 40
years.
The bill will now 60 to the
senate and we are certain that
our Senators Robert ]. Bulkley
and A. Vic Donahey will insist
that its way be speeded through
the upper house making it law
as soon as President Roosevelt
will sign it. There is no hind
rance to this.
With Congressional authorize
ton the only thing left is secure
the funds to start the work.
This will be entirely in the hands
OF the President who has four
billion dollars at his disposition
for public works projects. Out Of
this vast sum THE Beaver
Mahoning requires but about 81
million dollars.
There are thousands of
unemployed in the Beaver
Mahoning and Shenango Valleys
who will never again be able to
obtain work in the steel plants.
New industries will not settle in
this district unless water
transportation can be offered.
With the government aiming
to take care of the unemployed
it can do not better than to start
construction Of the Beaver
Mahoning. This work will
employ. thousands. Il will bring
new factories to the district in
which the unemployed can find
work. It will be the salvation
of the district and it's nearly
10000 population.
Every person living in this
district should do everything
within its power to impress the
President of the advantages to
the unemployed and to ali the
people in this district the canal
could bring.
Politics are warming up
little. Although elections are
still seven months away there is
considerable speculation about the
mayorality contest which will be
the major attraction next
November.
Several good men are being
mentioned as candidates. Among
those aspiring to the job is our
old friend Mike Kerwin now
Fourth Ward councilman, who
has always championed the cause
of the foreign-born, and who
has helped many Hungarian
to a job.
We have other friends among
those who are likely to be
candidates. A. W.. Craver,
chairman Of the Democratic
party and three times mayor of
Youngstown is another who was
always friendly, to us. Lionel
Evans, park commissioner is
another candidate who on several
occasions has given US help and
friendship, Arthur H. Williams
former finance director was the
first to give Hungarian girl
job in the City Hall is also
likely to be a candidate.
It is not our aim to make
recommendations now. We are
simply calling attention that
there will be hard job next
fall to select the mayor candidate.
We should be glad that among
the candidates having . good
chance to win we have 50 many

He declared that certainly he be-

In answering the question, ask

DEEPER CAUSES
in BACKGROUND
OF RACE RIOT


NEW YORK CITY Behind the
raging riot Of Tuesday night there
are deeper causes.
The riot began when a youth
was accused Of stealing a knife
in the Kress department store on
125th st,
Kress and scores Of other 125th
Street stores have been the 'object
Of widespread picketing operations
within the last year based on the
slogan Of Negroes: do Not Spend
Your Money Where You Cannot
Work.
Distinguished men of Harlem
have lent their aid to the picket
ing Of these stores men Of the
type Of the Rev Adam Powell, Jr
Several of the stores including
Blumenatein's. yielded in the fight
and hired colored girls. Some Of
the stores still refused to meet the
picketersi demands.
In this picketing operation the
name Of IarIem's Black Hitler
came to the fore. It was he who
organized Harlem masses into
boycotting stores which did not
hire Negroes. He declared war
on the Jewish proprietors.
This clash between pickets and
storekeepers. though apparently
without any effects other than
peaceful ones, actually caused a
deep resentment between white
and colored.
It took only small match to
inflame this III feeling.
Customers IA the stores, though
treated with courtesy, were never
the less aware OF STAINED rela-
tions in some Of them There SEEM
ed to be the feeling that forcing
stores to hire colored when they
did not want to would meet its
own revenge.
The 15-year-old boy who was
taken down the cellar by two floor
walkers and threatened with beat
ing was the match which set off
this silent racial resentment.
Harlem Negroes were reused by
the picketing fight into a demand
Of Harlem for Harlemites. The
white storekeepers resented this
demand And the match was
struck Tuesday night.
The riot was Harlem's reply to
employment segregation on West
125th Street.

White Girl Killed In Plot To
Put Negro Lover ''On Spot

CINCINNATI CAMP -One of
those queer things" happened
last Wednesday night when a
white girl, formerly a stenograph-
er, was shot to death while she sat
in a small automobile with her
lover, and her body mysteriously
returned to the home in the st.
Leger Apartments where she had
recently been employed as a maid.
Thursday, the Cincinnati En-
quirer (white) Stated:
Miss Heller Miner, q, steno-
grapher TURNED maid, was taken
home dead last night by the man
with whom she had passed the
day.
.She had been shot through the
head. Scratches on her face and
arms indicated that she had been
killed after a struggle.
IAN examination at General
Hospital by DR.. Frank M, Cop
peck, Jr., coroner, indicated that
the girl had been attacked"
But by Saturday the entire sto-
~ was out.
Helen Miner, white, had been
the sweetheart of Joe Bundy, coll
ored, and an alleged bootIegger,
for five or six years. On the morn
ing Of the day she met her death,
The Northwest enterprise. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1931-1952, 1935-03-28

she left her place of employment
to fill a .date' with Joe. She
stayed with him all day.
Between nine and ten o'clock in
the evening, she sat parked in an
automobile with Bundy and anoth-
er colored man, George Franklin,
when Patrolman Frank Lynch fir
ed a bullet at Negro, suspected
Of purloining from an automobile.
The bullet, instead of striking the
Negro, tore through the top of the
parked coupe and entered Miss
Miners head, one and one-half
inches above the right ear. She
died with her arms folded on her
lap.
George Franklin, an ex-convict,
is fair enough to pass for white.
He had called for her at her place
Of employment in the morning and
returned her there after the shoot
ing. He helped to carry her into
the house explaining that she had
tainted, then left to secure a doc
tor. He did not return.
Relatives Of the dead girl told
police that they knew the white
girl had been going with l3undy
for five or six years and had tried
to break the affair up. Franklin
