PROPAGANDA: Tha t's the


word that has built the white
mans empires all over the world.
It is my belief, that, if the colored
Americans were to adopt a pro-
gram Of propaganda baised on the
theory of his superiority in every
field of endeavor, we could then
consolidate ourselves and do the
things for ourselves that should
be done. Oh no, PROPAGANDA
is not baised on truth, it is simply
a matter of making people BE-
LIEVE what you tell them by tell
Germany's Hitler now leads his
country because Of propaganda,
So does Italy's Musolini. To make
myself clear, here is just what ]
mean: Instead of teaching our
children to worship the little white
movie stars let's find some brilli-
ant little colored child, and make
him, or her, famous enough for
our children to worship! And 50
on down the line. Yeah, Propa-
ganda within our race, for our
race by our race, is what will
make the whole world respect us.
Sure, because we will have learned
how to respect ourselves, as a
race; What do you think?
PASSING THOUGHTS: There
are some colored people (mostly
four-flushers)? in New York City
who are ashamed to. tell you that
they came from the South, ETC..
That's because they are, ignorant
of the fact that our most famous
artists came from the South,
which include: Ethel Waters; JIM
mie Lunceford; Louis Armstrong;
Fletcher Henderson; Bill Robinson;
and many others. (Now watch
then start Dragging about their
native states. Haw.!) ;. That very
famous song: (now a standard
song), HONEY SUCKLE ROSE"
that you hear so much was writ

Owens is now leading a band i. :.

Court Plan and MIRA Are Related
 Is Suggestion
Wage and Hour Legislation Ought to Be Enacted by
 Congress President Says

WASHINGTON, March 3.--Some Administration supporters have viewed the Presidents expressed desire for new wage and hour leg islation as closely related to his ef- forts to reorganize the Supreme Court which invalidated the MIRA, President Roosevelt said at a press conference today.
 He hoped that such labor stand ards as were included in the NRA would be set up at this session of Congress.
 Wage and hour legislation, he declared, belonged to the ought" classification Of legislation to be en- acted by Congress. He then asked reporters to discard that term
 Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg, Michigan, denouncing the Court re- organization, said No matter what it's purpose, no matter how nobly it was, it's effect would be the control of the Court with the Judges reflecting the Presidential point of view
 Vandenberg's colleague, Senator Brown, Democrat, of Michigan, said that while he was in sympathy with Roosevelt, he didn't think the Court reorganization is necessary

With the recommendation of the transportation, commerce and nav igation committee that it do pass. House Joint Memorial No. 62, which would urge the passage by Congress of the Dimond bonded indebtedness bill, was passed in second reading by the Territorial House this morn- ing and was advanced on the call endar to come up for final action late this afternoon.

It provides that if the Territory is authorized to issue bonds up to two million dollars 30 per cent of the money would go to airport and air way development. 40 per cent for roads and trails and 30 per cent for public institutions such as hos pitals and similar institutions.

Rivers Bill to Make Present Regulations Statutory
 Gaining Favor
DISTRICT JUDGE MAY
 PASS ON LICENSES
Amendments Being Made Tn Effort to Remove
 Cause, Complaints
BULLETIN-The Senate this afternoon passed the Rivers liquor measure.

The liquor issue became the dom- mate subject in the Territorial Leg islature today as the Senate began consideration of the Rivers bill which would make statutory the present regulations under the Board of Liquor Control and retain the present system with probable mi- nor changes.
 There was indication that the McCutcheon high license or saloon bill which has passed the House was likely to meet with difficulties in the Senate and it appeared that the Rivers measure probably would be given preference in that body.
 Remove Complaint Cause
 Amendments were being consid- cred by the Senators in an effort to take out what are considered some of the objectionable features of the present regulations. Among these was the matter of passing on licenses. It proposed that the ap- Iplicant for license must have five references from reputable citizens and the endorsement of his city council. The final approval then being left to the District Court Judge This feature is aimed to re- move the complaint that licenses are being granted over protest. It was brought out in the discussion that the Liquor Board now is obliged to grant license If the application has been approved by the city coun- cil, and that city councils usually comprised of business men, are he's itant to turn down applications un- less there is outstanding protest. By leaving the final approval to the District Court, some of the Sen- ators saw opportunity to remove cause of complaint on that score.
 A measure lowering the wolf and coyote bounty to SIS was approved by the Senate and sent to the House. The last Legislature raised the bounty to $20 Previous to that i
