II have been coming to these
conferences for many years, "Mr.
White said, and l we'll remember
that in the early years there was
always a note of complaint at the
obstacles we faced, and delegates
were inclined to be pessimistic
over their chances of overcoming
prejudice, hatred and prescription
in all walks of life. They were
determined, but they were pessi-
mistic. In recent years the philo-
sophy of the delegates has changed
entirely. Today they believe in
success, because they have succeed
ed in battering down many bar
riers placed in their path. The
victory is not won. Conditions are
not ideal either in the North or in
the South. But the N. A. A. c. p.
is determined to press on until
every vestige of discrimination be-
tween American citizens on ac-
count of race and color is wiped
out"

Brazil To Destroy
Coffee To Keep Prices Up

RIO JANEIRO, Brazil-(CNA)--
The National Coffee Department,
a division of the State Department
of Agriculture, has ruled that %,
100000 bags of the 1886 coffee
crop must be destroyed. This is
about thirty per cent of the total
amount of coffee produced for the
year.
This is being done to keep the
price of coffee high. The method
is similar to that ot the recent AAA
and other American farm measures
that have destroyed cotton, grain
and livestock, while more than ten
million workers and their families
are unemployed and facing star
walton.

husband to know it! Also tell me
in regard to my dear sister!

that she is so closely associated
with.

anxious to get away from YOUR

you won't have to encourage him
to make this change. Suppose you

gest the matter to him and l feel
confident he will be delighted.

would be so upset over the others
rights that the whole business

N EW YORK'S
.1ST NEGRO COP
is HONORED

New York-(ANP)-Police Lieu
tenant Samuel j. Battle, one of
Harlem's best known citizen and
the first colored man to. become a
member OF the New York City po-
lice force, celebrated two anniver-
saries on June 2S-that of his
marriage June 2S, 1905, and the
other, his Joining the police force,
June 2S, 1911. He was also the
first of his race to become a SER
geant, and now at the time when
many would be anxious to retire,
the lieutenant is hard at work
studying for the honor of biting
this city's first Negro captain.
HOnOred by Elks
He was the guest of honor last
Sunday at special services held by
four lodges and five temples of the
Elks' lodge, at Mother Zion A. M.
f. church, a capacity crowd being
present to congratulate the veter-
an policeman.
During his speech, the lieutenant
gave his formula for success as
follows: Make your own oppor-
tunities. When you see them, take
hold and never give up"
Referring to his life in the ia
nous Harlem district, he said:
1--WE lived with you, prayed with
you, socialized and fraternized
with you. I've done everything
with you, including arrest YOU"
Equal OppOrtunity-NOt Social
Equality
Asked about race prejudice, the
veteran replied: II couldn't con-
ceive of it being wholly eliminated.
But it is gradually decreasing as
Negroes are improving themselves
educationally and financially. But
We do not seek social equality
What we want is an equal oppor-
tunity to enjoy life and to make
our own way"

BALTIMORE-Negro voters IN

clared Walter White, executive
secretary of the N. A. A. G. p,
here Sunday afternoon in his an
nual address to the closing mass
meeting of the 1886 conference of
the association.
Mr.. White cited the action of Ne
gro voters in the Ohio and Hi
nois primaries this spring against
Senator William e. Borah as an ex-
ample of the independent voting
which the Negro citizen is doing.
More than ever before" the
speaker declared, Negro Ameri-

labels and vote for their friends
and against their enemies"
Struggle For Lynch Bill
Mr.. White told of some of the
acknowledgements struggles to Sc
cure passage of the Costigan-Wag-
ner anti-lynching bill. He told of
the magnificent support for the
legislation which came from all
parts of the country, including
the South. Despite this support,
a handful of southern politicians
was able to keep the bill from be-
ing considered on it's merits. Mr..
White declared that the campaign
for the Costigan-Wagner bill gave
no reason for anyone to be dis
couraged.
