PERSONAL ATTENTION

One of the choicest favors re-
ceived, for which no charge is
made, at the Clarence Bell cafe in
Minneapolis, in addition to the ex-
cellent meals, is the personal at
tention Mrs. Bell lavishes upon
each patron. One is made to feel
that he is the most important
customer being served. It's the
subtlest fiattery but it gets the
right reaction every time. One
knows that it is just a fine lady's
way of showing her real interest,
but it is good business and one that
many Negro business places could
copy with great advantage to
themselves and satisfaction to the
customer.

Negro Genius
Amazed at His
Prominence

DR.. George Washington Carver,
genuinely amazed that people find
his amazing achievements Of in
terest, is more than ever amazed
that John Hix, creator of the radio
program STRANGE AS 1T
SEEMS, has used a strange tale
of Carver's boyhood for one of his
dramatizations.
Once a slave, and sold for a
broken down race horse, today
George Washington Carver is the
Director of Research at Tuskegee
University, Alabama, respected as
one of the greatest living scientists,
but still a mild, gentle, unassuming
person who refuses to believe that
he is of international importance.
However, the world is full of hun
dreds of things DR.. Carver has
made out of waste products, which
nave saved the world millions of
dollars.
Never boasting of his achieve
ments, it is well known just the
same that DR.. Carver has created
more than two hundred products
from peanuts, ranging from shaw
ing lotion to synthetic rubber. He
also has made an oil that is used
in fighting infantile paralysis. DR..
Carver has not found anything too
lowly for his experiments to dis
cover some new material. From
mere clay he has made wood stains
and face powder, and from the or
binary sweet potato he has Gre
ated nearly two hundred products
from -four to starch and dyes.
From good old sawdust he has in
vented ways of using it to make
marble (synthetic), and building
boards, wood, veneer, fibre, paper
and many other worth while things
that never before were manufac-
tured from the waste particles of
saving wood. Even the pecan
served DR.. Carver for sixty new
articles that are very useful.
Named After Race Horse
This famous man was once
nameless slave, ransomed for a
broken-down race horse after his
mother and he were kidnapped.
He took the surname of his owner
and the given name of George
Washington. In time he was ready
for school and had to work his way
through, but got his degree at Iowa
State College. One college degree
wasn't enough for this brilliant
men-he is a Bachelor of Science,
Master of Science, and Doctor of
Science. He is a member of the
Royal Society for the Encourage
ment of Arts, Manufactures, and
commerce OF Great Britain, ana
winner of the Spingarn Medal for
Negro Achievement.
Recognized by all the world of
commerce and education he has
quietly gone on with his work at
Tuskegee University and even re-
fused an offer from Thomas A. Edi-
son, who offered him 100000 to
work with him. DR.. Carver ex-
pressed his regrets to Mr.. Luison,
telling the inventor that he pre-
ferred to remain at the University,
working for the benefit of his peo-
pie, and among them.

ATLANTA, October 25-Gov. Eu-

debts by January l.
"Georgia's outstanding unpaid ap-

These debts. created during former
administrations when revenue was in

600 when Talmadge took Office in
1898.
Under a law enacted during the
regime of Richard B. Russell, jr., now
United States Senator, the State
thereafter was prohibited from Gre
ating such debts. Georgia must live
within its revenue.

NLEANo1INO VI IiiC c0iieA "o'@o
of medical and other CONNER
cial programs construed as
~ repugnant has taken new
turn during the last month, with the
opening of several test cases" before
the Federal Communications Commis-
sion on this very issue.
Three stations-KNX, Los Angeles;
KFRC, San Francisco, and WT'MJ,
Milwaukee-were hailed before the
broadcast division of the F. c. c. on
citations involving their very existence
because they had broadcast certain
programs advertising proprietarieS. All
three of them had broadcast a program
advertising an anti-fat remedy, along
with certain other medicalS.
Federal Communications Commits
sion staged the most elaborate hearing
ever held on such case. Nearly
dozen experts from the Food and Drug
Administration were called upon to
give expert testimony about the prod
ucts advertised. All of them were
foundly condemned.
The issue is whether, by accepting
these programs, the stations failed to
meet the statutory requirement Of
serving the public interest, and as a
consequence should be refused renewal
of their station licenses. The station
counsel were allowed until December
IS to file briefs, after which the F. c. c.
will render its ruling. Because of the
importance of the decisions, all eyes
in the broadcasting industry are turned
toward the F. c. c., since the future
program operations of all stations
actually are involved.
The three stations called to hearing
were cited along with 18 others last
Spring for broadcasting the reducing
remedy programs. The others, how
ever, we're dropped from the dockets
because. according to the F. c. c.. they
ceased broadcasting the program and
had no other charges pending against
them.
Meanwhile, the F. C. c. itself is
working out procedure with the
Federal Trade Commission designed to
simplify the existing methods of pro-
gram scrutiny. Under it, broadcasting
stations would be permitted to sign
stipulations with the Trade Commits
sion whereby they would agree to
abide by any orders issued against
radio advertisers, but themselves would
be freed of any punitive action.

Avon Proctor Gives Bac- calaureate Address
 at St Johns

An adequate preparation for the realities of life was stressed as the fundamental problem facing graduates by Rev Percy c. Kam- merer, proctor of Avon Old Farms school at the baccalaureate ervices yesterday afternoon at St. Johns church. His test was:: Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven and its righteousness and all these things will be added unto you"
 Pointing to the rapidly changing social and economic standards the speaker said that many of the girls would probably marry men who could not support them in pretentious style and that they must be prepared to do much of their own work. He added that this situation would do much to bring home to them a realizatoin of the true values of life.
 He held out the promise that the "new world whatever it may be will be a better world" Eternal values will remain, he said, cour- age, sacrifice and dedication to fine ideals.
 Glass day was observed this af- ternoon at the school and this evening the class play, "The I'm portance of Being Ernest" by Os- car Wilde will be presented at the Waterbury Women's club.
