545,ooo, against $4,000, $4,000 in the
like week year ago, or a decline of
81 per cent. The outside centers con-
tributed a total of $2,l37,3 ,387 900, in
contrast with $2,127, 100000 for the
oniIlc Wech ldSI year, OI b gain OF 10
per cent.

revealed more declines this week from
the 1886 figures than for more than
eight months. Some OF the larger

per cent; Seattle. 222 per cent; Buff
falo, 1874 per cent, and Kansas City,
1870 per cent. Among the declines
were Chicago, 1l.9 per cent; Omaha,

and New Orleans, 9s per cent.

ceding. the loss in clearings amounted

Letters To
The Editor
THE NEGROES COMING
TO AMERICA

Editor:
We, as Negroes of America, have
failed in keeping religious impress
sions which are our inheritance.
The present statistics indicate
that the Negroes have in the re-
cent years almost discredited the
prophetic Interpretation, with ref
erence to purpose for which we
were brought to America.
Our coming here without any
choice Of our own has a great deal
to do with injustice, as to equal
rights, which are legally due all
citizens of America, which was
publicly demonstrated through the
mob last week in Mississippi.
If the white man or the people
of this country knew the purpose
of our being here, which if known
would be to his advantage as well
1S OuIS, L USl1SNO CllC1E dIC1CuUC W
ward us would be a little different
as to mob lynching.
How can the whites come into
the great light of seeing our help
to them in the future when they
have not been righteously taught?
The white ministers have done but
little in teaching, "God has no re-
spect of persons. Instead he
teaches a separate God and bless
ings which is being cultivated
throughout the entire country, as
the teaching of Christ.
/ hold the white ministers of the
past, as the present, absolutely re-
sponsible for many evils we now
suffer. They fail to emphasize the
important facts of the teaching of
our Lord and Master.
The Negro ministers are doing
all they can to perpetuate the
spirit of Christ who died for all,
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1937-04-30

not one particular group. There is
more to be expected of the white
ministers since they have more
experience.
It is the spirit of Christ trans
lated through good white people of
this country which makes a partial
welcome of our stay, while waiting
upon Divine Movement. In a
spiritual way we came to help the
whites, we are not unmindful of
the blessing we have received of
the whites; in return we shall re-
ciprocate in the future as we have
in the past.
We came here to show the prac-
teal example of a good Samaritan.
You may pass us by while our
enemies stake US in the, south, and
yet we will take you to the inn,
and pay your hospital bill.
We came to teach the spirit of
humility, there is a race who is
possessed with equal spirit. We
wonder as to why they are humble.
Is the spirit of Christ exemplifed
through them?
We came to keep alive the
righteous spirit, that we have done
very little.
We came to teach the spirit of
endurance. We have proved that
since we have been here.
We came to help you in the fu-
ture chaos. jeremiah was placed
in the dungeon, no water but mire.
jeremiah sank into the mire. When
an Ethiopian by the name of Ebed-
Melech heard of it he went to the
king, through whom he was grant

jeremiah. With thirty men this

Public Service
Bureau
(From Current Issue Of
Minneapolis Spokesman

The initial week of the Public
Service Department, instituted by
The Minneapolis Spokesman, has
been very happy for the paper that
has undertaken this most impor-
tant departure; for the director
who has had the great joy of be-
ginning administering to suffering
humanity; for the patients who
have welcomed, so enthusiastically,
this opportunity to receive unusu-
al considerations from the hands of
one of their own people and from
the authorities of the several in
situations visited, who have given
us every courtesy and who have
seemed intuitively to understand
the humanitarian motive impelling
The Spokesman in this venture.
Illness is surely no respecter of
persons. The hospitals are filled
with the sick of high and low de-
gree, and Of all the groups that go
to make up the peoples of this
great city-and, of course, the col
ored people have not been spared
in this universal affliction. But all
of them have reason to be thank
full and proud in the fact that our
city gives to all without discrimi-
nation; to the we'll to do or the
poorest; to members of all races
without respect to color or condi-
ton, it's very best skill and all the
comforts that modern hospitaliza-
ton affords.
There are, of course, many little
detailed attentions of a personal
nature which the hospital stats are
unable to supply. These are the
things the public service depart
ment of The Spokesman will make
available for it's people.
LII CI1S UIAc1 0pdCS VI d week III
our visits to the General Hospital,
the U. S. Veterans Hospital, Glen
Lake Sanatorium, and the Park
view Sanatorium, we have found
many occasions when the sympa-
thetic word, the gift of our paper,
the writing of letter, a little ad-
vice, and the like, have been well
come interludes in the tediums of
life for the sick, no matter how
carefully and skilfully that life is
being nursed back to health. We
look forward with eagerness to the
days when this special service
shall grow in extent and value.
The Spokesman Public Service
Bureau will welcome any sugges-
lions that promise to make our
work more effective and more
beneficial for those we seek to
serve.

R W. II. Smith
THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
STREET

stood on the corner with a
friend whom wanted to direct to
my home one day and I said my
home is on this side of the street.
No, he interposed, you live on the
other side of the street. Nonsense,
I answered, don't you suppose I
know where I live, it's on this side
of the street. Well, he replied, I'll
prove it by yourself that you live
on the other side. Go to it, smart
one, said I somewhat nettled.
Now, said he, your street has two
sides doesn't it? Of course, I ad-
mitted. You agree you don't live
on that side across from you? AS
suredly. But you do live on the
other side? Why surely I do said
I, and then we both broke into a
laugh for he had tricked me into
admitting the thing I knew was not
true and which I had so vigorously
denied.
But that was only a little pleas
antry with no serious consequences
have often had fun since tricking
some other fellow into the same
admission.
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1937-04-30
In Love

But saddest of all, I think, is the
marriage of two people whose
minds are not attuned to the "same
side of the mental street" Some
times they muddle through years of
disappointment and disillusion, but
more often, like the merchants who
fail to overcome the handicaps of
an untenable location, they pack up
and move far away-through the
divorce court.
Truly, living on the other side of
the street is a serious gamble, in
commerce, religion or love!
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1937-04-30
In Religion

But the queer thinking that Oft
times ruins a business finds its out
let in other lines equally incom-
prehensively. Take the various re-
ligious sects that through separate
ways endeavor to reach the same
goal. How little of understanding
or sympathy for each other is
shown. Each one feels its way is
right and looks with more or less
i'll concealed contempt on the mis-
guided efforts of the rest. This is
well illustrated in the remark of a
Baptist minister's wife who re-
marked of a certain gentleman
whose Christian virtues had been
extolled in her hearing, "He isn't a
Christian, he's an Episcopaian."
Both Of them are now dead and I
hope the lady has realized her
error.
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1937-04-30
IN BUSINESS

Just the same business success
and the right side of the street are
indissoluble, linked and bound to-
gether with a psychology that adj
mits of no explanation. For in
stance, this paper moved a couple
Of weeks ago across the street, a
distance of about 40 feet. But if
we were a mile away the difference
could scarcely be more marked.
The people who now pass our
door are in a different class in
thought, action and economics. The
persons who still pass on the other
side appear never even to look our
way-fortunately none of them
are numbered among our custom
ers. But one may readily realize
what a difference it would make if
they were. know of a busy Sec
ton where for twenty years there
have been repeated attempts to es-
tablish a successful business ven
ture on the wrong side of the
street, but all in vain. Across the
street stores flourish but here, a

Many downtown business houses
despairing of overcoming this pc
culiar psychology have bodily
moved blocks away to retrieve the
error of a wrongly situated site.
