STEEL SHIPMENTS

Further Reduction in Operating

CLEVELAND, Ohio, September as
Daily Metal Trade today says:
Shipments of finished steel continue
10 exceed new orders and further
reduction in operating rate Is believed
inevitable unless the Fall pickup ma
terialises in the near future. In some
districts some production now Is going
into mill inventories.
Incoming business is expanding in
some directions, and indications are
the buying movement will accelerate
as the automobile industry steps up
production on 1898 models.
For the most part it Is believed mis-
eellaneous manufacturing demand
will expand in step with buying by
the larger consumers, notably auto
motive. Currently deliveries are
greatly improved over the recent
past In some items prompt deliv-
cry is available.
Further easiness continues in scrap.
Higher freight rates are believed i'm
pending which may force some price
advances in the not distant future.
Generally speaking, the outlook for
the last quarter is promising, though
indications are business will not be
up to the level Of that of the first nine
months of the year.

CATTLE FEEDING

ing centers, Is back on q good profit
basis.
The highest cattle prices in 10 yeara
despite high corn prices, have put
feeders back in the black. In fact.
conditions for feeding are on the best
cost-price basis In years, according
to statistics In the livestock market
here.
1t means, authorities said, as soon
as good feed becomes more plentiful
butchers are going to have a large
supply OF some of the choicest beef
ever offered their customers.
The margin of prices for grain fed
cattle over the original cost Of grass
feeders in the past few weeks has
been the widest in history on the Chi
cago market.
Farmers buy stockers and feeders
at the Midwestern concentration and
slaughtering centers and put them on
feed. Most Of them are fed 100 to 100
days. Choice cattle are put on best
rations even longer and some of the
best beeves that have been bringing
sl9 per hundredweight in the live
stock market here recently we're fed
SIX to five months. They have cost
the feeders around 81 to SO per hum
dredweight and have been more than
doubling the original cost, although
consuming high priced corn and other
feed.

High Spots Of the Annual Report Of The
Baltimore Urban League Reflect The Problems
Existing in The Twin-City League Work

In the analysis of the Leagues
program the survey makes the fol-
lowing statement: THE organiza-
tons work has been largely promo
tional. Operating on such a limited
budget it could do little else :"
The organization is fundamentally
interested in promoting the COM
plete integration of the economic
life of the Negro. 1t must, there
fore, work with employer and en-
ployee for the best int, est of both
and the public as well. This fire.
quently causes inconsistencies in its
program, but they have been treated
successfully in the past. Further
more, any organization that is faced
with so many types of problems
housing, crime, unemployment, health,
race relations, organizing labor and
securing jobs from employers-has
an important place in the commun-.
ity. though the results of its efforts
may not attract headline attention.
This objective appraisal ..of our
work is self explanatory If we
could secure larger staff, We would
huild a functional program connrocn-
:.Tate with growing needs. We need

GEORGIA PRISON STOCKS
TO BE ABOLISHED

Atlanta.-As a result of far
reaching campaign of unfavorable
publicity, important changes in the
brutal system of punishment melted
out to convicts on Georgia chain
gangs were announced this week.
Most important of these were in
structions sent to all prison wardens
under the signature of c. A. Johns,
chairman of the Prison Committee,
ordering all torture stocks in their
camps destroyed.
Several books and pamphlets ex-
posing the brutal treatment of pri-
soners have been widely circulated
during the last few years.
It is also believed that the struggle
to free Angelo Herndon did much
to bring chain gang barbarity be-
fore the public eye, as did the find
ings of a senatorial investigation
into peonage in Arkansas which
offered stark evidence that planta-
ton owners and chain gang wardens
commonly colluded in framing limo
cent men, generally on charge of
vagrancy, and sent them to the
chain gang.

Twin-City Urban League
Announces CCG Call

Attention! All Twin City Boys!
The next enrolment for the CCC
camps begins April l and runs
through April Is. The age limit in
cludes boys from Is to %. Boys
from relief, WPA, and border line
families may apply for admission. 1t
will probably be of interest to know
that race boys enrolled in the CCC
will not be sent out of the state to
other camps. In the past it has
been the policy to send all race
boys out Of the state to a Negro
concentration camp in cases where
there were not enough boys in the
state to constitute a camp.
Due to an action taken by the
Urban League; this condition Of
policy has been changed, and now
ali Boys Of the State Of Minnesota
attend camps Within the state. If
for any reason the boy wishes to go
to a camp outside of the state, he
has his choice.

Britisher Says Mussolini
Is Mad"

London.-The Rev. DR.. Edward
Gordon Selwyn, Dean of Winchester,
speaking at a memorial service for
Ethiopian dead on Wednesday, and
in the presence of Emperor Halle
Selassie, said: 1.-THE ruler of Italy
supposes himself to be Caesar, but
he is true type of the Assyrian
Emperor Antiochus, surnamed the
Brilliant and nicknamed the Mad
man. No one who knows the Ital-
ians will deny they are by nature a
kindly and unwarlike people. Their
record of savagery in Ethiopia, Libya
and Spain, a record which recalls
the atrocities of which the Arme-
mans were victims a generation ago.
can only be explained by the view
that they have been seized by a
spirit of evil of supcrhum1n nature"

American Legion

One Of the boys rushed in the
other day, and told me of the
hearty laugh he received when look
ing in a book in the school library,
he found man illustrated differentia-
ton of the races, picture of a
black man with thick lips, yellow
pants and yellow shoes, high hat
ETC., with a woman of the same
physical characteristics as the man
and equally outlandishly dressed, do
ing a peculiar movement or dance
that l surmised was the forgotten
outlet of Negro grace, known as
the cakewalk.
He asked me to explain it, but
there are SO many angles deferred
my answer until 1 could make a
personal investigation. AS you
probably know this was impossible
this week, due to the Easter vaca-
ton.
I discussed this with neighbor,
and was informed of another school
where Negro pupils are sent out of
the room when matters pertaining
to the race are under discussion.
As this is matter for our COM
mittee on Child Welfare, and that
on Americanism, I am beside the
point, for I am sure that the chair
man of each committee will turn
in report of highly successful
activity, when they see fit. But
back to the cakewalk.
Shall I tell him that while truck
ing is the order of the day among
the dancers, that the cakewalk has
passed to higher groups, and in
stead of doing it to the tinkle of
guitar and the twang of a banjo,
our cakewalkers of today, do it to
the profit and pleasure of the other
group, though it may bear many
names and forms of expression?
Shall tell him that cakewalkers
of today have long since ceased to
hold hands, but preen in circles
about the object of their affections,
and hope that beautific smile will
adorn the features of those for
whom they walk?
One cannot think of cakewalkers
in terms of advancement, for the
old cakewalker of the backwoods
picnic demanded cake as his prize,
and shared his gatherings with his
unfortunate brother. Cakewalkers
of today demand nothing, sometimes
receive a few crumbs of bread, fire.
quently a kick in the pants; but
my how they boast their ability,
though it is more frequently an in
capability which shares nothing.
What has become of the old
fashioned army haircut, the kind
that left the ones with hair, an
imitation of feather buster, the
guys with a bald spot, nothing but
fringe to denote the difference
between head and an egg.
