that is to say, the love of God was
shed abroad in my heart by the
Holy Ghost, which is given unto me.
Only when I denied myself, and
made full, and complete surrender

That in the ages to come He might

And God, Who is rich in mercy,

Ford Assails Howard
DePriest As Betrayers

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 31-(CNA)-
Perry Howard National Republican
Committeeman from Mississippi, and
Oscar DePriest, former Congressman
from Chicago, were bitterly assailed
as ''Uncle Tom traitors" to the race
by James w. Ford, Negro Communist
Vice-Presidential candidate, in an adj
dress at the Dreamland Auditorium
in the heart of this city's jim-crow
section.
Ford charged that Howard and De-
Priest were deliberately covering up
the anti-Negro policies of the reac-
tionary clique behind Gov. ALT Ian
don, Republican Presidential candi-
date, in an attempt to corral the
colored vote for "Hearst's choice for
President" Howard, DePriest and
Jesse Owens, Olympic star, had
spoken in the same neighborhood
for Landon two days before.
PERRY Howard and his ilk," Ford
declared, "are the greatest enemies
of the Negro people because they are
trying to deceive Negroes into sup
porting the reactionary Landon-
Hearst-Liberty League-Wall Street
forces" The Communist leader
cited financial support by Liberty
Leaguers to the so-called Southern
Committee to Uphold the Constitu-
ton, the Crusaders, and other anti
Negro, anti-labor outfits.
these are the very forces which
seek to perpetuate and extend lynch
law against the Negro people" Ford
continued. "It is these people like
Perry Howard who aid the persecu-
tors of the Scottsboro Boys, Angelo
Herndon and thousands of other in
nocent Negro victims"
(In a speech in Cleveland, Perry
Howard came out openly in defense
of the Liberty Leaguers, and de-
clared: eff there is anything I like
better than one rich white man, it's
two The only reason for colored
Democrat is that he is mad Repub-
lican")
Ford asserted that Jesse Owens
would be doing a real service for his
people eff he used his achievements
to campaign for equal rights for
Negroes in the sport world. But to
lend himself to the vile purposes of
the Liberty League is to permit his
achievement to be used against his
people"
"When Howard and DePrieSt tell
Negroes their interest lies in ALI
ance with Wall Street instead Of
with their exploited fellow white
workers, they prepare further
tortures for the Negro people"
Ford urged his hearers to vote
Communist in the approaching cleo
tons and to support the nationwide
movement to build up a powerful
Farmer-Labor Party which, he said,
would defend the special interests of
the Negro people as well as the in
terests of the whole toiling popula-
ton of the country.

FLOOD BLOC URGES
STUDY OF CONTROL
Committee Of Ten to Be
Sought to Plan Measures
for Rehabilitation.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The House flood States bloc agreed
today to propose creation Of House
committee Of 10 to study food areas
and measures necessary for rehabilita-
ton.
This action was taken after brief
hearing by the House Rules Committee
on a resolution by Representative
Lewis, Democrat, Of Maryland propos-
ing q Joint Senate-House committee.
After Chairman Wilson, Democrat, OF
Alabama of the Flood Control Com
mittee had emphasized the considera-
ton being given by the Senate Com
merce Committee to flood relief prof.
ects in the House-approved omnibus
bill, Lewis volunteered the modifica-
ton of his proposal.
The revised resolution will be re-
submitted to the Rules Committee.
Vandenberg Opens Fight.
In the Senate, Vandenberg, Repub-
lican, of Michigan opened fight
against extending Federal responsible
ity for food control beyond present
limits. He warned 1t would involve an
ultimate expenditure of at least
$4,000, ,OO0 900.
The Michigan Senator demanded
that Federal funds for flood control
be confined to major flood menaces
on navigable streams and not extend
| ed to purely local problems.
At the same time it was learned
President Roosevelt had sent a conf
Dental memorandum to his leaders
on Capitol Hill urging them to pro-
vide the necessary emergency flood
relief, but to go carefully on a long
range program.
Broad Program Advocated.
He told the leaders permanent hood
| control must be considered together
with a broad program involving re-
forestation, irrigation, navigation and
the prevention of soil erosion. The
memorandum was not made public,
but the Presidents views were out
lined to the Senate by Senator Rob-
inson Of Arkansas, Democratic leader.

astated Eastern States.
In view of Robinson's stand. Chair
man Copeland of the Commerce Com
mittee forecast he could hold the
pending omnibus food control bill to
a total of 'less than a half-million"
dollars. There had been indications
it might become a billion-dol bill.
Senator Vandenberg suggested that
in the proposed legislation the Nation
was now embarking on the theory Of
assuming as a matter of Federal re-
sponsibility purely local food control"
Although Robinson denied Vanden-
berg's contention, the Michigan Sen
ator insisted the bill was beginning
a trend in that exceedingly dangerous
direction"
Vandenberg said today he was per
fectly willing to accept Federal re-
sponsibility for any project involving
a major flood menace"

A new name is added to the list of Wash

this city.
In announcing our appointment as retail
dealers for Hudson and Terraplane, we
are offering to Washington motorists what
we believe to be one of the most unusual
combinations to be found anywhere. Cars
of outstanding beauty, quality and value,
backed by one of the largest, best equipped,
most capable and responsible service or
ganizations in the country.
Service by CALL CARL
This combination is made possible by an
arrangement whereby CALL CARL, INC,
located just across the street from our
shoWroomS, will take over the entire service
responsibility on the cars we sell.
CALL CARL, INC, needs no introduction
to car owners in this part of the world.
Established here for almost fifty years and
specializing in automobile service since
1919, the reputation of this company is
literally Nationwide They occupy four
full foors-over 10000 square feet
equipped with all the latest special tools
and testing equipment. They employ 1875
trained mechanics, including experts in
every branch of automobile repair and
maintenance work So complete are their
facilities that they could easily, if neces-
sary, build an entire car without calling on
a single outside source for materials, labor
or working equipment They are open "a
hours day, every day of the year.

Factory.Trained Experts

To their already strong organization, CALL
CARL, INC, have added a group of Hud-
son factory-trained service experts. The
result is to make available to local Hudson
and Terraplane owners the strongest possi-
BILE assurance of lasting motoring pleasure
and satisfaction.
Our decision to apply for a Hudson and
Terraplane leadership was based on the
recommendation of CALL CARL, INC, who
told us that their experience in repairing
all makes of cars in recent years shows that
Hudson and Terraplane owners enjoy
greater satisfaction and greater freedom
from mechanical trouble than any other
group of owners.

IS COMMUNISM OR FAscIsM NEAR?

eve are racing toward dictatorship
Communism or FaSciSm will be our lot If
something isn't done.''
This is the warning given to Amer
lean workmen by Matthew Vol, vice
president of the American Federation of
Labor, in the Liberty Magazine: In max
ing his own case, Mr.. WOll makes the
case for every American who wants no
form of "ism'' in this country, nor any
form of dictatorship.
Whether we admit it or not, we AM
orleans are rushing toward governmental
ism or form of state socialism, Mr..
Woll says. 1--WE are turning our backs on
individual rights, contract rights, property
rights, even state rights.
1--WE are setting up new form of
society,""
Building his case step by step, Mr..
Woll points out that zone by one, under
the stress of emergency, the great towers
of democratic strength in this country
have gone down and towers of dictatorial
strength have arisen in their places. This
is invariably the first step toward a So
cialistic state, whether of the Communist,
or the Fascist or Nazi type"
Government is already moving
rapidly toward the full control of indus
try. The trend toward dictatorship is no
longer trend; it is race. True it has
beer slowed down here and there by judi
cial opposition. But it is only matter of
time before courts, no matter how august.
change in personnel until they reflect the
will of the power which appoints them.
Judicial opposition alone will not per-
manently protect u.s."
In those few words, MIR. Woll makes
as fin 4 case for maintenance of the Am
erican system as has been made. He speaks
for organized labor, but he sees plainly
that pro. erty rights and human rights are
the same. The fall of liberty means the
fall of our entire structure.

BETTER GET MARRIED

If statistics recently compiled by DR.
William F. Ogburn of the University OF
Chicago are to be accepted as accurate
those who desire to retain wealth, sanity
and even life itself, should get married il
they are not already that way.
He declared that most of the inmates
of poorhouses and insane asylums are u1l-
married. also that the death rate for single
men and widowers is twice as high as that
for married men.
It has often been asserted that mar
ried men live longer, but a cynic once de-
clared that this was not literally true, as
sit only seemed longer" However, DR.
Ogburn's researches seem to bear out the
idea that married life is really conducive
to longevity.
To be on the safe side, therefore, a
young fellow had better get married; pro-
vided of course, he can find someone who
is willing to assume the role of party of
the second part-or maybe it's the first
part.

Prospects for direct highway to

bet officials have been reluctant to adj
vance $6,000,0 600 or more to span the keys

that the trains aren't running. But the
possibility of taking over the trestle for
