It must be evident, by this time,
that there is no longer any reason
for the Negro to doubt that his

he will get action. IF we concede
that, then it is simply a matter of

Hearst Changes
Evidently the sound thrashing
that the New Deal gave William
Randolph Hearst on November 3,
last, has done him much good.
Although he fought the present
Administration viciously, Mr.. w.
r. Hearst so soon as the election
results were announced, immedia-
tely climbed aboard the New Deal
bandwagon by naming the Presi-
dents son-in-law as publisher Of
his Seattle newspaper which was
having trouble with the News
The Arizona gleam., 1937-02-19

the Guild-for Labor.
Now the N. A. A. G. P. simply
wires Mr.. Hearst that his news
papers in New York are damaging
the whole Negro group by play
ing up Negro" in murder head
lines, and to the surprise Of every
body, Mr.. Hearst simply says
You're right, and orders the
word out of the headlines.
Mr.. Hearst is getting old. Per-
haps conscious of the fact that be-
fore too long he may be called to
his reward, he is making some
concessions to put his ''house in
order. The Negro may not have
much power intemporal affairs,
but hardly any individual white
man, in his right mind, would do
injury to the race when ne has
time to reflect on the probable
consequences in the hereafter. We
have heard that more than one
philanthropist who had ammass-
ed many millions by turning sharp
corners in business, felt consider
ably relieved about facing st.
Peter when he signed a check for
a fund for Negro education.
Or maybe Mr.. Hearst feels con-
vinced, since November 8, that
somebody else might be right be-
sides himself. Maybe he is will
ing to '1isten to reason. Any
way, it was a nagnanimous things
he did when he told his editors to
quit writing such headlines as
"Hunt Negro in Murder. We
hope st. Peter will overlook some
Of his other mistakes, if for no
other reason than this simple ges-
ture.
"Aunt Jemima"
The Cleveland Call-Post has en-
dorsed, editorially, the drive to
take the bandanna off "Aunt Jem-
ima's" head. The paper says:
"The Negro is no different from
other races in resenting the ex-
ploitation of insulting caricatures.
No racial group has to fight more
against Misrepresentation, than
ours. Because we own no stock or
hold no important positions with
these companies, we must make
public matters out of protests. :.
The bandanna is no longer accept
able in good society, even in Cat
fish row. It would be much better
il Aunt Jemima removed this
headpiece and revealed to the
world her latest croquignole
waves"
While the last sentence may be
taken by some as pun, it is real
ly based on fact. Recently there
has been introduced a new "Aunt
Jemimna" who is a young woman,
and hardly any Of the younger
colored women fail to wear the
latest in beauty creations.
The fight against "Aunt Jerni-
mas bandanna is one Of self
respect. Secretary Of Commerce

GIRLS OF JAPAN STUDY
HOW TO BE GOOD WIVES

When a Japenese bachelor takes
q bride. he wants her to know her
business. That's why so many Japa-
nese girls are going to school to take
courses in how to be wives.
The bachelors choice has been
evidenced in recent weeks by the
increase in enrolment in the 'brides
schools" So many girls must be
opened.
To date the largest and most pre-
tentious of these Finishing insti-
tutions is that of which Viscount
Keiko Mimuroto is headmaster. It
stands in a select section of the resi-
Dental district of Tokyo.
Here. in a classical style japanese
house, so young ladies from Is to
18 years old are enrolled in two
wear course. From 9 o'clock in the
morning to 4 o'clock in the after
noon, they have lessons and lee
lures on household management,
dietetics, Western and japanese
cooking, dress making and embroid-
cry.
The hope-to-be brides also receive
special instruction on the care of
husbands and babies, on the art of
being charming, on behavior, on the
proper manner of serving a hus-
band, on flower arrangement, and
on music.

said, II shall be delighted to have
Chairman Doughton and his col

His statement followed one by
Doughton, Democrat, North Caro-

the advisory committee recently an
nounced by the social security board
and the senate finance committee to
consider the advisability of changes
in the social security law. The advis-

bergh had urged such a step.
Doughton declared the Michigan
senator is apparently ignorant OF
the fact that the constitution of the
United States provides that call bills
for raising revenue shall originate
in the house of representatives"
He added Vandenberg apparently
"does not desire to consult the
farmers of the country because
they are not represented on this So
called advisory council"

Tennessee Valley
Project Approved

The Tennessee Valley authority
received from the Sixth U. S. circuit
court of appeals this week a go
ahead" signal for continuance OF the
Federal governments huge electric
power program in six Southern
States.
The court dissolved temporary
injunction granted by Federal Judge
John Gore of the Eastern Tennessee
district to 10 private utilities and
sent the case back to the lower court
for a hearing of their suit to de-
termine the constitutionality of the
IVA act.
It held the injunction was against
public interest, in that the loss the
public would suffer through failure
to obtain cheap electricity, eff it be
found in the end that it may law
fully be supplied to them," could
not be measured.
Similarly, the circuit court said,
the public interest in the achieve
ment of reflective control of the
flood waters of the Tennessee river
and its tributaries" was beyond ap-
praisal."
Senator Norris, independent of
Nebraska, author of the IVA act,
reserved comment pending a study
of the decision.
