WELFARE DISCRIMINATION

1t is ruhored that since superintendent Harris re-
placed John F. Ballenger head of the Detroit Depart
ment Public Welfare few months several sgn
cant changes have the disadvantage of col
ored welfare workers and relief recipients.
The colored workers in the department it is said have
been transferred to Alfred street station while the
posts formerly held by of them the West Side
have been filled with white workers.
1t is also rumored that the old overcoats and clothing
on hand have been ordered sent Alfred
tion to be distributed among coored relief families while
white families relief given welfare orders to
sundry articles of clothing and other goods from stores
This change makes possible for two standards of relief
to be used-one coored and another for white with
coored welfare workers the West Side to observe
such practices of subtitle discrimination.
We do not know at present whether these rumors
are true but convinced that the evidence seems
strong and deserves further investigation.
Welfare aid in Detroit and other cities of Michigan
should not influenced by the color of the individuals
in need assistance but broader principles OF hu
mainly and Justice in which racial discrimination plays
part.
Down in Georgia and other sections of the South, sta
tstcs show that white welfare families receive almost
twice as much coored families relief with the same
number in each family. We want such double stan
dard of welfare relief Detroit takes just much
tute coored citizen as destitute white citizen requires
The taxpayers meet the BILL therefore dscrim
nation should be made.

THE 1.' "s"".' EDITORIAL PAGE ".. :.'

I recently read that visitors to
the home Of the Dionno Quintuplets
had carried off literally tons of
rocks from the scene. They believe
that these rocks coming from the
vicinity of multiple births will
somehow be endowed with this
principle and that the mere pre-
sence of these rocks will sterile
couples miraculously fertile. This
is a peyfect example of 'contagi-
Gus magic
Religion and Magic
Both religion and science ORR
ginated in magic. Primitive peo-
pies seeking to control their en-
yironment, sought certain rules
that could be employed to do this.
Not understanding the actual rules
of nature, the performed what they
.hCught were the rules When they
wanted a bOuntiful crop they sacri-
iced pregnant animals upon the
spot. Like was supposed to produce
Ike. 1t took them milleniums 20
dud cut that nature worked by
other rules and on the way they
discovered both God aud Science.
When modern folks hold seancea
and try to talk 10 the spirit of de.
parted loved ones. they are trying
to apply the rules of ordinary liv-
ing to a different plane. 1t is as
silly as trying to compute the
weight of Uranus with elementary
arithmetic. To imagine that the
dead will speak through a trumpet
is as stupid as trying to fertilize q
field with a pregnant animal. Never
theless there is undoubtedly {
great deal to be found out about
the spirit. 1t probably survives bu'
not in the personal way in which
people imagine. People of great
spirit personality influence theil
own times and often, like Christ
Buddha, Mohamet and others
reach down through the ages to i'm.
press themselves upon humanity
More ordinary folk leave their i'm,
press upon their children and II
survives thus through generations
Not alone the good but the bad
spirit has this method of survival
This is why each must try to per-
feet his spirit. 1t is our highest
duty to try to purify the spirit we
inherited before we hand it on.

ALTON, Ill, July 14.-If the family
yardstick is accurate, Robert Pershing
Wadlow, Atoms youthful giant, meas
ures 8 feet inches tall, which, If SCI
entifically verified. would make him
the tallest person in medical history.
Since his eighteenth birthday on
February 20, when he stood feet 3&
inches, the boy has also added IS
pounds to increase his weight to 425
pounds.
Roberts father, 150-pound Harold
r. Wadlow, an engineer, measured
and weighed his son. It has been 16
months since physicians last used SCI
entific instruments to measure the
boys proportions. He then was 8 feet
III inches tall and weighed 375
pounds.
A height Of feet inches would
make Robert fraction of an inch
taller than the famed Irish Giant, :"
Charles Byrne (OBrien), who some
medical authorities agree was slightly
more than 8 feet 4 inches tall when
he died in 1888. Another authority
reported the tallest authentic giant
measured 3 feet "a inches.

Peek, former foreign trade adviser to
President Roosevelt, reserved decision
today as to whom he would support
for the presidencr after talk with
Coy. ALI M. Landon.
The first A. A. A. administrator said
1t was "too early" to decide whether
he would support Gov. Landon, the
Republican nominee, with whom he
conferred for three hours yesterday
concerning farm, trade and currency
stabilization policies.
Peek, asked If he would support
Roosevelt, replied:
"If you mean. will support our
present farm and foreign trade policies,
say no, definitely. No, I see no
sense in curtailing production and
bringing in food"
Awaits Landon's Views.
Asked when he would decide
whether to support Landon, Peek said,
''he hasn't spoken yet: after he speaks
on subjects on which I have more OF
less definite views, I'll make up my
mind quickly"
Peek, who said his conference with
Landon was arranged by the Republi-
can National Committee, indicated he
believed others shared his position.
Il think the people are waiting very
anxiously to hear what Gov. Landon
is going to say in his acceptance ad-
dress and in subsequent speeches" he
said. II think the farmers are going
to rely more upon the statements Of
the candidates than upon the plat
forms"
Submitted Memoranda.
Peek said he submitted to both the
Democratic and Republican National
Conventions memoranda favoring de-
lay In international currency stabili-
zation, but looking toward domestic
sterilization; full protection for Amer

bilateral basis, without the most ia
vored nation" clause.
Neither platform followed my sug-
gestion 100 per cent" Peek continued
THE Republican platform follows
most Of my suggestions on farm and
foreign trade policies"
Opposed to reciprocal tariff policies,
Peek withdrew from the Roosevelt ad-
minitration after a clash with Secre-
tary Hull.
On Iandon's list of callers today

should no trumps break three and
one, and spades four and three, the
hand could be made without the
heart finesse, while should Mr..
Schenken decide to take the heart
f1nesse at the start, and 1t be sue
cessful, he would surely make the
hand.
Mr.. Schenken now considered the
advisability of an immediate play OF
the queen of hearts. If East held the
king, he might well cover, in which
case all Mr.. Schenken's worries would
be over. However, Mr.. Schenken de-
cided that while East would be tempted
to cover, he would fail to do so, and
an immediate play of the queen OF
hearts would remove all possibility OF
taking the heart finesse later, in the
event that 1t should be necessary.
The final play that Mr.. Schenken
decided on was designed to insure sue
cess (a) if trumps broke 2-2 ano
spades 4-3; (b) If spades broke 43
irrespective of how trumps we're di-
vided; while should spades break So
it would allow for the hand to be made
on the heart finesse, in the event that
trumps broke 2-2, or if trumps broke
81 and the hand with three trumpS
also held the five spades.
The complete deal was:
