L. A. DRIVERS
WILL COMPETE
WITH RACERS

Exciting sport is predicted Friday
night when two well-known Los
Angeles midget drivers wheel their
mounts onto the local track to try
and wrest first prize money from
valley and Yuma speedSters. How
ever, it will take some clever driv-
ing TO lead home such pilots as
Hardin Young, Hobe Herrick, Crash
wall Davis, Frank Hetzel and Ward
Swarthout The identity of the
racers coming is unknown as yet
but they will be among the first
flight drivers at Atlantic stadium,
according to a letter received by
Ward Swarthout today from the
L. A. Racing association.
The track will be in its finest
condition of the season and it is
predicted that all records will be
broken for the third time this year
The local course is the best quarter
mile flat track in the west and the
one lap record of II seconds is
exceptional for the class of local
cars that race here weekly. Only
the mighty midgets" costing thou
sands of dollars have bettered this
time on any flat track.
Last weeks spectacular four car
smashup when Yves Anderson
wrecked his car and Herrick hurtled
through the fence has failed to
slow up the valley speed boys and
they will all be on hand Friday
night to give the visitors plenty OF
competition. There will be the
usual heat races, trophy dash and
the main event will be over the
forty lap route.

Highways Of Tomorrow

Compared TO the roads Of a generation ago, modern high
WAYS are marvels Of excellence. Yet, in spite Of this phenom1-
nal development, today's system is woefully inadequate, as
Frank 7. Sheets points out in an article in Public Safety.
Progressive strides have been taken and must continue
10 be taken in driver education and in providing safety regu-
lation for vehicles" says Mr.. Sheets "but the ultimate in traf1
fc convenience and Safely will not be reached until we actual
Nv provide adequa G highways and build safety into then"
Today's engineers have designed tomorrows highways.
The magnificent roads will include terminal facilities whereby
traffic will move TO various points with a minimum OF eonges
ton: main super highways of many lanes with divisions at
the center q prevent head on collisions, will carry cross couh
TRY traffic, avoiding conges.ed areas erroute; intermedlate
highways will serve local traffic needs even the lowest Craze
of little used roads will be given some cheap form OF hard
surfacing; arterial urban streets will carry into and through
cities and towns that parl of rural main trunk traffic which
has business in the metropolitan area.
This seems a far off ideal, but not too long ago the auto
mobile radio, he airplane and telephone seemed so, too.
The cos Of developing highways and streets OF maximum
safety ON a. national scale, will be tremenduous-b but It may
be spen over a long period Of time and pform of government
expenditure can serve the people better. Good highways are
not a cure all for the accident problem-bul when we develop

Professional Help

We see from DIR. C. c. Spauld-
ing's first statement as head of
the National Negro Business Lea
que that he hopes to get the coop
ration of professional men in the
community to aid Negro business.
A worthy objective, but one fraught
with many difficulties.
Some years ago DIR. Carter G.
Woodson wrote a book on "The
Negro Professional Man and the
Community" DR.. Woodson's later
book, 1.-THE Mis- Education of the

first, for our professional class is
our best educated class.

If there are any doubts about

and self sacrifice of the old time
leaders of the group, take a look
at Randolph. There is a man who
struggled for a cause, and not for
self. There is a man who really
had at heart the interest of those
whom he served. There is a man
who suffered many personal indig-
mites, but who overlooked all, for
the sake of the end he sought. So
many of our leaders fall by the way

not overlook minor things for the

OPINIONS
FARM SECURITY /

The Resettlement Administration
sung its "swan song" last week.
In its place came announcement
from Washington that in the future
the program for farmers who had
exhausted all other credit resources
would be carried on by a new agen
cy-the Farm Security Administra
ton.
The new rural program, created
under the Bankhead and Jones
Farm Tenant Act, is administered
under the Department of Agricul
ture and will emphasize rehabilita
ton loans to farmrs and the begin
ming of a ten year program to aid
tenant farmers to become owner
operators. Cal A. Ward is Regional
FSA Director in North and South
Dakota, Nebraska ard Kansas.
"Rural rehabilitation work, in
GLIDING farm debt adjustment, com
munity and cooperative services.
drought aid, and rural resettlement,
as well as present regional and
field personnel, will be taken over
by the new administration" Ward
said. 'The value of Rehabilitation
through standard farm loans has
been definitely proved in the past
two years. Hundreds of farmers
would otherwise have faced hank
ruptcy and foreclosure have repaid
their loans before due. Starting
from scratch these farmers are
working back to a self sustaining,
independent basis"
Purchase of land for tenant far
mers will proceed on a very small
scale this year, Ward said. "Only
ten million dollars was appropriate
ed for this purpose for the entire
United States the first year," he
explained. Naturally funds avail
ale for this region will be only a
small percentage of that amount.
In selection of both land and ten
ant we expect to work very closely
with local committees and proceed
carefully at all times formulating
. pattern on which to carry out
The program in the years to come"
Construction of community type
settlements, featured under Reset
Element, viii play only a minor
part in the new program in the
northern Great Plains. Where land
has been acquired and construction
sfarted such projects will be com
lated but to new projects viii be in

able side, the strike situation grows
steadily more tense, even as indivi
dual strikes are growing more
bloody and embittered, and troubles
such as those now being exoierenc
ed by the independent ste com
panies may be felt in other import
ant industries before the years end.
On top of this, Congress is consider
ing or about to consider a number
of legislative proposals ranging
all the way from a new and more
stringent "NRA" to creation of a
gigantic, Federally owned super
power system-which are anathe
ma to all business leaders. And
there is a good chance that taxes
will be materially increased for
1888.
Even so, the strength of the re
covery acknowledgement in
rising incomes, and an almost in
satiable public desire for commodi
ties of all kinds-is so great that
practically all of the established
forecasting s%erices are bullish. Thus
in recent weeks, the Alexander
Hamilton service has, 'The world
is in the boom phase of the bust
$ cycle" Babson believes that
gains over a year ago should o
tinue to be well maintained"
Brookmire anticipates that renew
ed recovery should follow the sum-
mer lull.' Colonel Ayres sees n
rason to fear that any serious bust
S recession is impending" Glib
son says, mo major decline is in
prospect for the summer months"
Poor's forsees "some recession dur
ing the near term" but nothing
severe. Summing up opion, United
business Service observes that "pre
sent indications point to a moderate
letdown in activity rel the next
few months although business in
the aggregate should hold above a
year ago"
So far as specific elements in
the industrial picture + concerned
the commentators agree fairly well.
Most of them think that bond prices
will be either stabilized at current
levels. or may go down slightly due
to higher interest rates. Stocks are
definitely irregular, with the recent
trend downward, but neither ma
terial advances nor recessions are
anticipated. There will be little vari
ance in commodity prices general
" during the next few months,
with a possible rise coming in the
fall. Summer trade in all lines, sea
sonal factors considered, will be
good, and better than in 1896. For
eign trade should start upward, but
it will be a long time before pre-
depression levels are again reached
A war in Europe would revolution
ize the outlook in this field, but
but few believe that any of the ma
jor powers are sufficiently confident
to risk a war as yet-they are
simply bluffing and stalling.
For most industries, the earnings
outlook is good-though nowhere
mar 5 good as production outlook.
Some of tn largest industries-of
which the railroads are a case IN
point-are doing a greatly increas
ed volume of business with extreme
lv small increases in earnings, due
to higher taxes, higher wages, etc.
However, practically all industry
has emerged from the deficit per

ink.

Press Unity

While Mr.. Justice Black is max
ing up his mind on just how and
where he will answer the Khan
charges, we would like to call at
tention to the unity Of the Negro
press on this burning public issue.
At a time in recent history has the
organ of a minority group demon
strated greater solidarity than has
the mouth piece Of the Negro
group in this instance. Although a
few of our leaders were caught
tout on a limb in the Black case,
not one was a bona fide journalist.
All of our editors, whether Republi-
can or Democrat, whether pro-New
Deal or anti New Deal, whether
staunch supporters CT the Presi-
dent or silently and patiently
awaiting a chance to eriticize-all
struck with equal force and fervor
in behalf of the public interest and
human rights on the Black issue.
This should be a lesson to some of
our leaders in other fields, who n
prone to smile benevolently and pa
enthusiastically when the press seeks
its rightful place in the sun of ra-
cial leadership. Because most of
our editors are comparatively poor
persons, and do not command huge
sums of money which can lie IN
disturbed until certain dates for
expenditure arrive, they are rated
a it'll lower than the more privi-
legged racial angels. But when it
comes to standing up for the public
interest, and not compromising for
the sake of what might happen to
to the fortunes of the individual, no
more brave group-as poor as
hey are-can he found than the
Negro editors.
Whatever Mr.. Black says, OF
however the issue is met at the
White House, you can count on the
Negro press to shoot straight, and
with telling effect, in this or any
other instance where the public
veal is concerned.
