thing in the face of golden peach
halves. fresh or brought down off
the kitchen shelf bathed in a lus-
cious cinnamOn-y sauce which no
one can quite diagnose, and housed
in a crunchy honey-sweet crust
that's as good for YOU as it is good.
The crust is half of it, as it should
be with any pie. But this crust is
different in that it's quick, easy
tc-make, and fool-proof! AS well as
being chockful of those mysterious
elements that make for sturdy
bodies so good no one can resist it.
And the best of it is, this pie uses
what's on hand as we'll as what
might otherwise go to waste
But here is the recipe.

We are accustomed to hearing
stock reasons for the backward
ness Of the South, many Of which
center around the "backwardness"
of the Negro But latter day econ
onists are changing their view
point. Mr.. Coyle asserts: e
"The causes of this economic
drain can be found, for oratorical
purposes, in the evil days of Re-
construction. But in hunting for
a remedy, we may as well recog-
nize that the evil of. economic
drain is found in many parts Of
the North and West. It has var
ious causes, many Of them con-
nected with the difference between
agriculture. and industry. Any
remedy that will help the South
will be likely to. help the depressed
areas in all part sof the country. :"
Mr.. Coyle is convinced that the
South needs Federal aid, and says:
Education is probably the most
practical avenue Of Federal SUBJ
sidy to be further developed in
the Immediately future. For one
thing, the custom Of subsidizing
education is Of long standing and
high respectability. The voters are
note so easily shocked by a pro-
gram that is merely an extension
of century-oid system. -"
But when it comes to the Negro,
Mr.. Coyle, while showing some
liberal tendencies, finally curves
away from complete equality; He
says:

Southern Economics

We note an article in the current
Virginia Quarterly Review, pub
Nshed at the University of Vir-
ginia, on "The South's Unbalanced
Budget" by David Cushman Coyle,
in which these interesting obser-
vations are made:
"The South is losing money. The
editor Of leading Southern news
paper makes a rough guess that
the South is paying out a billion
dollars a year beyon its yearly
income. Where does it get the
billion dollars? BY selling its
property to investors in other
parts of the country. by borrowing
money and going bankrupt, by de-
stroying land and forest to make
products for sale.
1.-THE South is losing resources,
physical. and human. Forests are
cut and not replanted. Coal and
iron ore are mined and the steel
Is SHIPPED away for others to use.
The land is being washed into the
sea. The people are being allowed
to suffer poor health and poor ed
ucation, which robs them Of part
Of their productive powers. These
unpleasant developments, which so
deeply concern the leaders Of the
South, are involved in the prob
lem of economic unbalance which
concerns the leaders Of the nation
Not only is the South as a whole
spending more than its income,
most Of it's local units are running

Worlds Largest Business

Worlds Largest Business
It is pleasant to see that the
foremost propounders Of the theo-
ry Of Cooperation" in Negro busi-
ness and Negro life are also the
successful developers of the
worlds largest Negro business. We
refer to the North Carolina Mu-
tual Life Insurance Company,
which, according to the thirty
eighth annual statement just made
public by President c. G. Spauld-
ing, has assets of $4,716,6O2.98,
and which had income Of $2,187,-
474.32 last year. This company,
within the memory of many now
living, at one time had an annual
income of $393.95, and admitted
assets Of only $3.50.
We congratulate Mr.. spaulding,
and his fine group Of executive
The Arizona gleam., 1937-04-02

the benefits Of Fede1al aid to the
school budget. It is not the busi-
ness Of the Federal Government
either to discriminate between
races or on the other hand to in
terfere with the domestic arrange
ments of the States. Congress may
properly grant an equal subsidy to
be expended on each child Of
school age, and may require the
local authorities to match the Fed
eral grant without discrimination
If the States or counties want to
supply extra funds for the white
schools that is nobody's business
but their own.
'The point to be kept in mind
by the people of good will is that
the first necessity is to get more
Federal money into the South.
Theories as to justice or other
moral considerations cannot be
true if they prevent finding some
practical. way Of helping educa-
tion-some way that will actually
pass the Congress of the United
States, and that will be accepted
by the States, North and South,
where help is needed -"
Mr.. Coyle is described as "a
consulting engineer by profession,
and in recent years he has served
in an advisory capacity on a num-
Der Of agencies of the Federal gov
ernment and written widely in the
field of social and economic prob
lems."
Mr.. Coyle's suggestion that the
Federal government specify abso-
lutte equality in the distribution Of
Federal education funds betwene
the races in the South is quite a
distance ahead of certain advo-
Gates of the Harrison-Black Bill,
who want the, Negro to trust"
the white folks on fair play, and
not demand that the bill be amend
ed to specify equal distribution Of
funds between the races. But to
get around this, since as a Fed
eral employ Mr.. Coyle COULD hard
ly advocate that the Government
itself discriminate between the
races, the Southern Gentleman"
blandly tells the state HOW to
GET THE MONEY and at the
same time keep the white folks
right where they are, regardless Of
ethics and morality. Just let the
States themselves add the old un-
equal, sums to what the Federal
government appropriates, and
presto, the status quo remains. AS
Mr.. Coyle says, "that is nobody's
business" but Of course the poor
defenseless Negroes who help pay
the taxes Of the South. Here is
an excellent reason why Negroes
can't trust their kind and loving
Southern white folks.

laid, "it viii go over with a bang.
and Seattle and 123 other cities

Briefly, that plan. if the legis-

sufficient percentage of the state
