will be educated together. The white
ssuth got taste of how colored ed
ucatofs feel during the recent fight
on the Harrison-F letcher education
al bill. Negro educators demanded,
without equivocation, equal distribu-
ton OF the Federal funds. The only
reason the South maintains the
double standard is so it can get the
lions share OF the school money. IT
the South il ever convinced it must
share the money equally between the
races, then the bars will suddenly be
let down.
Colored teachers from the South
will gain much in inspiration from
a visit to the North, and getting a
chance to see, at first hand, just how
the single standard system works.
So strongly has the Jim Crow idea
been forced down upon many South
ern teachers that they cannot even
imagine a situation where white and
colored act normally toward each
other in close personal contact Let
them come North and see for them
selves how close association between
the races On 4 besis Of legal and ac-
tuai equality. won't hurt either party,
but will help both.
Newspaper Group Action.
The recent check on how the col
ored newspapers handled the Joe
Louis heavyweight erowning story
! brought manv interesting reactions.
But most important Of all was the
andoubted trend toward strict indi-
/ yidualism on the part Of practically
| all of the larger pspsrs. and the lack
Of the desire to succeed as q p1oup.
| Each seems to want ali for himself,
ana to ba perfectly willing fo eyen
! ignore the existance Of anv other.
| If the colored papers are to con-
1 tinue to grow, they must not forget
group action. An enemy. knowing
the jealousy existing at present
among colored editors, could easily
play on this and keen all down. But
If the papers would forget the less
broad viewpoint. and realize that all
have a right to liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness. and that ali must

Alabama Is Stubborn

It is nip and tuck between the
liberal and tolerant forces III Ala
bama and the prejudiced and die
hard forces, in the case of the Scots
boro boys. One week it looks like
justice may finally be served, and
the next it looks like the Legion Of
Hate, so ably marshaled and led BY
the late Mr.. Knight, may not be out
done. But, all in all, 1t is clear that
the liberals are gaining ground, for
this week, in spite of the blunt an
nouncement by the State that it had
twenty witnesses ready to take the
stand in last determined effort to
electrocute the boys, the movement
for fair play" has spread to the
neighboring state Of Tennessee.
The Commercial Appeal of Mem
phis, published in a center of poor
white concentration from three
poverty-striken areas Arkansas,
Tennessee, and Mississippi-in the
midst of public opinion so back
ward and reactionary That Negroes
have been all these years developing
a school Of higher learning has
come out urging Alabama to seek a
compromise.
Says the Appeal: 1t is refresh
ing to observe that the Birmingham
News has joined with the Montgom
cry Advertiser In advocating that
these cases be compromised. lie
defendants have been in jail for six
years, the case has been to the Su-
preme Court Of the United States:
twice, and only one Of the six IN un.
der any sort Of sentence now. Re-
calling that it has sided with the
State and the prosecution, the Ad-
vertiser admits that 'Scottsboro has
i injured Alabama incidentally It
adds, Let us throw away this body ct
death that has encumbercd us all So
long
"The News is even more emphatic.
] Pointing out that Scottsboro has
/ been an Old Man of the Sea, the
| News calls upon the state to move
for a decent, dignified compromise,
| concluding that if state officials can
find their way to bring about a com.
promise, they will have done a fine
days work for the people Of the
state
ut is to be hoped that this counsel
will prevail. Not only would it be
relief to the people Of Alabama,
but it would be good thing for the
South as a whole
/ Of course, Negroes don't want q
compromise; they want freedom Of
the Scottsboro boys. But it is a ster
toward that freedom for the State tc
seek a compromise.

Urged to Fight
Miss Mamie II. Burroughs, presi-
dent and founder of the National
Training School for Women and
Girls, urged the Negro to earn and
learn and keep up the fight until
all men are free.
Freedom must be written in the
hearts Of men as well as on paper.
It's not matter of saving the Negro,
but saving America. Nobody is going
to lick the American Negro on this
continent unless America is licked,
too. Ii America continues to prose
cute the Negro that same Negro will
BE milestone around Americas neck.
There will be no peace on earth and
good will towards men while one
tenth Of the citizens Of America are
economic slaves
Dir. Charles H. Wesley, head of the
history department at Howard Uni-
versity and diector of the Howard
summer school, struck q responsive
note when he declared that the Negro
has always fought for freedom and
declared that He who would be free
must strike the first blow.
Dr.. Wesley cited instances in his
tory where Negroes have taken the
lead in the fight for freedom. He
said "the blow need not be with guns
as it was in those days but with pro-
tests that must be heard
Negroes themselves must dare to
strike that they who sit in power may
hear in no uncertain terms. The test
of freedom lies with us and not with
certain bills" he said. All of the
speakers urged spirit of unrest and
constant agitation on the part Of the
Negro
The conference was called by
Judge William G. Hueston, commits
sioner of education of the Elks who
gave the aims and purposes of the
meeting at the afternoon session
Leaders from all over the country
were invited here to consider various
legislation now pending in Congress
as it affects the Negro.
Certain bills, it is claimed, have
hidden meanings which can be in
terpreted in southern states to jim
crow and segregate the Negro.

POLI's

Topper. which has played to packed houses in some Of the biggest cities in the country. opens today at the Loew Poli Theater as 6 top- notch comedy treat.
 Based on the .superb whimsy Of the screen play adapted from Thorne smiths sensational novel, Topper, the brilliant talent Of the principals provide uproarious fun and fast-moving action from the opening scene until the final fade- out.
 Constance Bennett and Cary Grant are presented aS delightfully."- gay but Tollicking madcap ghosts who involve Roland Young in as- founding adventures and ribald es- capades in their conception Of doing Q "good deed' in Changing the nor mai fife Of sedate bank president in order that they can escape a spiritual prison. Billie Burke, Alan Mowbray. Eugene Palette and many others give admirable support to the co-starS.
 The deft direction of Norman 2. Mcleod, the beautiful photography by Norbert Brodine and the arI1az- ing special camera effects by Roy seawrtght combine to make Top per" one of the seasons entertain riaent treats.
 To make this an outstanding pro- gram, . motion picture that might well have been filmed iil some mod. ern city hospital, Between Two Women, will be the second big hit shown here today.
 The story not only presents au- thentic atmosphere, but cnlivens the realism of its settings with q n1ov- ing story Of love In which two women concentrate on one bewiI- dered and courageous man.
 Franchot Tone, ag c young and ambitious iiiterne, gives his role Q sympathetic understanding that brings the character into bold relief.
 Virginia Bruce, blonde and beau- tiful, makes atl effective heiress who falls in love with him. Maureen O. Sullivan plays the role of hospital nurse, tinhappiiy married. who also loves the doctor, secretly.
 Tine story ig enacted on c large jcaie with the tremendous resources of Metyo- dcldwyn- Mayer studios to give 1t magnitude. The hospital scenes are Stfikinely effective and the acting Of afi excellent cast s socd throughout.

 Now South saw the safe game SO giimmering. He won the heart re- turn with the ace, cashed three diamonds, and his spades, but then was forced to let West in with He club ace and thus lost his contract.
 A simple safety play was ayail- able to him on the first lead. He should have let East hold the first trick, to guard against . long heart suit with both aces in the same hand.
 Had he done that he would have fulfilled his contract with one over trick without risking anything what ever, If East. after winning the heart lead. could return . heart, then West could not hold more than four cards in the suit.
