MORTGAGES ARE
APPROVED BY F.H.A.|
Persons in All Sections of
Country Enabled to En-
Joy Benefits.

The Federal Housing Administra-
ton SO far has approved more than
1000 financial institutions as mort
gagees, and Stewart Mcdonald, the
administrator, has been advised that
the facilities are sufficient to enable
people in all sections Of the country
to enjoy the mutually insured mort
gage system created by the national
housing act.
All classes Of financial institutions
are in position to negotiate insured
mortgages in A of the States. In
the other four those institutions which
are not prohibited by State laws from
doing so, as, for example, national
banks, are functioning. AS soon as
the opportunity offers they are ex-
pected to enact enabling legislation.
The Mississippi Legislature is getting
ready to meet. The Virginia Legisla-
ture meets In January. The Kentucky
Legislature meets in the Spring.
The Federal Housing Administra-
ton is approving the applications of
1A1nAAN4dA 44AoIAIuIAOIAc W dCL hS
gagees at the rate of from IS to so
4 day. About 10000 institutions
throughout the country are eligible,
but 1t is thought unlikely that more
than $4,000 will qualify. This Is be-
cause many financial institutions are
engaged entirely in commercial and
similar forms Of financing and are
content to leave the residential mort
gage field to others.
The fact remains that scarcely a
community exists in which there Is not
at least one financial institution quail
fed to negotiate an insured mortgage.
The gradual increase in the number Of
approved mortgages. while not add
ing to the geographical operation Of
the national housing act, obviously
will provide additional funds for
home-mortgage investment.

CAPITAL BLAMED
FOR us. UNREST
Judge Says "BulIying' by
Big Business Aids Long
and CoughIin.
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April "a. - Federal
Judge John c. Knox last night blamed
big business" with blindly attempting
to bully" the country into submission
to its will and charged that this atti-
tude was furnishing fallow ground
for the "pernicious doctrines of Sen
ator Huey Long and Father Charles E.
Coughlin.
The dean of the United States Cir
cult Court, speaking before the Har-
ward Alumni Association, asserted
that big business, as a whole, still
wishes to have what it wants when it
wants it,"
BE sure of this" he said. IF capi-
talism persists much longer in the
belief that it is superior to the mass
of humanity, and if it continues to
exhibit the selfishness that heretofore
animated its being and which still
s&irs in its heart, the citadel of concen-
trated wealth is in danger of serious
impairment ="
System Losing Favor.
Citing the confused financial trails
left by utility companies. the ''machi
nations of Kruger and his ilk," large

impecunious governments" Ju d e e
Knox said it was not surprising that
officials of cities and States ARE re-
spending to the political opportunities
that Bourbonism furnishes them
They recognize" he said, that
thousands upon thousands of people
who once had property and have it no
more are unwilling further to fight,
bleed and die for the capitalistic
system.
The politicians appreciate. too.
that when millions of men and women
are on the dole and are without hope
of ever again having property inter-
est in anything. they have but little
reason to be readily regimented in
support of big business.
Thank God. these persons. of whom
there are 20.00O000 or more have not
become desperate. and l pray that
they will not become so. But this
much is certain: Their minds have

legislation can get the tight OF way
at the end of the session.
The Speakers request was made aft
er Floor Leader Kent r. Mullikin had
disclosed yesterday it will be several
weeks before the Legislature can for
mulate a definite financial program
for 1936-37. Adoption of the program,
he said, must await more information
as to Federal requirements. Mullikin's
statement came in answer to a query
from Delegate Leon Abramson of Bal
timore as to whether the State would
have to match Federal relief funds by
February !.
Declaring this would not be neces-
sary. Delegate Mullikin told of the
conference Monday between represent
atives of the State and Federal Re-
lief Administrator Harry l.. Hopkins.
THE question in all our minds is
what will happen to relief and what
the new Federal program will be-" he
said I'VE would be foolish to assume
to go ahead with program under the
circumstances. The best service we

Efforts of the store officials and the

Five FERA Nursery Schools For
Celored Children In West
Virginia

Announcement was made this week
to Harry L. Hopkins, Federal Emer-
gency Relief Administrator, by the
State supervisor that five FERA nur-
sery schools for colored children are
operating in West Virginia.
Two nursery schools are located in
houses formerly used by the local coal
company in East Beckley and Morgan
town. The colored Masonic Hall in
Huntington has been provided for the
use of another of these schools. In
Hinton, the Baptist Church is the To-
eaton for the nursery project. One Of
the teachers cottages in Charleston
has been turned over to the author
tiles for the colored nursery school.
Mrs. A. l. Spaulding, Negro Ad-
visor to the West Virginia Relief Ad-
m~inistration, was high in her praise
of the work being done for children
under four years Of age through these
recently-established nursery schools
for under-privileged children in West
Virginia.
1T is hoped" said Mrs. Spaulding,
chat the local school governments Of
u State will be able to enlarge this
unique educational and social project
along the lines set up by DR.. Grace
Langdon, FERA specialist, in Emer-
gency Nursery Schools"

LIBERATOR OF 1912
GIVEN TO LIBERTY OF
ATLANTA UNIVERSITY

Atlanta, Georgia, January IL
Specialize Atlanta University Ii
brary has just received as a gift from
Oswald Garrison Willard, a copy of
the Liberator of May 81, 1912. Mr..
Willard is a grandson of the great abo-
lutfonist, William Lloyd Garrison,
the high-minded idealist who provid-
ed the chief impetus Of the Abolition
movement. Garrison's Importance as
a dominating figure in starting the
campaign against slavery is conceded
by historians.
The LSberator, the mouhpiece of
the Abolition movement and of the
more intelligent colored people, was
first published on January 1, 1881, lust
one hundred and four years ago.. This
is one of the three notable events in
the history of the anti-slavery contro-
versE. The first number of the Lib
orator contained an "Address to the
Public" which sounded the keynote Of
Garrison's career; 81 shall contend
for the immediate enfranchisement of
our slave population will be as
harsh as truth and as uncompromising
as justice on the subject do not
wish to think, or speak, or write with
moderation am in earnest will
not equivocate-I will not retreat a
single inch and | will be heard!"
The Liberator was voluntarily dis
continued by Garrison in 1865.

Tennesseans Confer
About Race Matters
Sixteenth Annual Meeting of State
I%nterracial Commission Held
In Nashville.

Nashville, Tennessee, Jan. 26.-Ir
the midst of the worst blizzard of the
season, a representative group of in
terracial leaders met here Tuesday
morning and afternoon in the six
teenth annual conference Of the Ten
nessee Interracial Commission. Health
education, interracial cooperation in
other fields, and the fight against mob
violence were among the topics DIS
cussed.
w. E. Turner, of the State Depart
ment of Education, reported progress
in the improvement Of Negro schools.
DR.. Robert E. White, Of the State
Department of Health, gave a dis
couraging picture of health conditions
among Negroes and stressed the need
of better public health facilities to
deal with these conditions. The Negro
death rate in Tennessee, he stated, is
practically equal to the birth rate.
The Negro death rate from tuberculo-
sis is two and a half times that of
white people, and their infant mortal
ity is twice as high.
Rev. t. c. Barr reported on church
efforts for better race relations, and
Mrs. j. D. Charts, Mrs. frankie Pierce,
and Miss Grace Eaton, all Of Nash
vile, told of interracial work among
women. The conference was adj
dressed also by President w. J. Hale
of A. & I. State College, DR.. L. l..
Patton Of Chattanooga, and DR.. Alva
w. Taylor of Vanderbilt University
Resolutions were adopted commencing
Governor McAllister and the sheriff Of
Bedford county for their vigorous
and effective stand against the Shelby
vile mob.
The following officers were elected
to serve during 1885: President, Rev.
T. c. Barr; vice president, Rev. Day
ton A. Dobbs; executive secretaries,

cordang secretary, Rev. ]. D. Barber;
