Memory OfHueyLong Cherished
 By South, Writes Dr. Walker
Reaction to Anti=Lynching Filibuster Reveals Un=
 expected Sentiment
the lives of the senators by saying that it was too good to be true!"
 Meet Negro Voter

the lives of the senators by saying that it was too good to be true!"
 Meet Negro Voter
 One of the interesting experiences in our short stay in the state of Mississippi was to meet Negro who had voted. The disenfranchisement of Negroes in this state where Ne groes outnumber the whites by a slight majority is so effective that a Negro who has exercised his con- Stitutional right is man altogether unique and remarkable. Mississippi is evidently one of the most back ward of the southern states. There are statistics to show that this state spends something like $45.34 on the schooling of the average white child each year and matter of $5.45 on the average Negro child. If you be- lieve as some southerners do that "a Negro ought to be kept in his place" Mississippi is prime example of just how it can be done.
 The Della Cooperative Farm at Rochdale, Mississippi, sponsored by Sherwood Eddy and managed by Sam Franklin seems a very hopeful venture, not only in racial but in economic cooperation. There is no doubt about it, the Mississippi Delta is one of the richest agricultural areas to be found anywhere in the United States. If the share cropperS under the old system found it so very difficult to eke out even the most miserable existence there is something wrong with the system. The lot of the tenant farmers in the south, both white and black, is a miserable one, and if Dr. Eddy and his friends can work out a success full experiment it will be of enor- nous benefit to many millions of people who are kept in state of practical peonage.
 Not Too Friendly
 As one might expect the southern neighbors of the Eddy farm are not too friendly. A good many evidently think of the men interested in the farm as northern meddlers". Well perhaps, but if the south will not take seriously the problems of lynching and rural poverty, some one is bound to meddle!
 All in all, it's very interesting!
 Yours very cordially,
 JOHN c. WALKER.

writing to a paper in Memphis com- mented on a senator's statement that night sessions would shorten those same Mississippi cars is that they have only one license plate.
 New Orleans claims to be the most interesting city in the United States and there is something in the claim. The old French quarter, the Vieux Carre', is a favorite haunt of the tourists. The patios with their ex- quisite iron grills on the balconies are very lovely indeed. The Spanish and French influences on architec- ture are everywhere present. I am only surprised that outside the French quarter there is so little trace of these influences. The new municipal auditorium, just outside the old city on the opposite side of Rampant street is as Grecian as the Parthenon.
 City Below Sea Level
 It seems strange to live in a city which they say is from two to four feet below sea level. Here, there and everywhere are canals and leveeS. The water in some of these canals is above you, not below you, as you drive on the streets and walk on the sidewalks.
 Huey P. Longs name is still very much in evidence. AS someone said he had no modesty, false or other wise. Bridges and buildings to a considerable number bear his name On some of these bridges we were amused to find the names of two governors, Huey P. Long and O. K. Allen. The initials of the latter gentleman, were, as you remember, so very appropriate in the days when MT. Long had moved on to the United States senate and left MT Allen in Baton Rouge as his deputy and personal representative.
 Which reminds me that not all southerners are pleased with the re- cent filibuster against the Anti Lynching bill in the senate. There are some who resent the southern reputation for intolerance, reaction, and racial discrimination. A man

MAIL VIOLATIONS
 QUESTIONED HERE
Out=Of-TOwn Firms All legged to Be Placing Un=
 mailed Ads in Boxes

omqlaints that laws regarding the placing of unmaileo advertising matter in private mail boxes are being violated, are being voiced by residents of several sections of the city. The matter will probably be called to the attention of oPstmastel Charles A. Babin.
 Advertising pamphlets and circu- lars from several firms, delivered from door to door, are placed in mail boxes in violation of the law Several out-of-town firms are the chief offenders in this respect.
 Federal postal laws forbid dis tributors of leaflets or advertising matter who give out the circulars from door to door from placing them in mail boxes. Tn addition, a city ordinance forbidding such a practice was adopted some years ae0 and is still in effect.

 Spirit" will be the subject of the leSSon-sermon.
 The Golden Text is from Ephes- ian 4:30: "Grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption"
 Selections from the Bible include the following passages from Gal. B.: 1-3: 70 foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, cruicif1ed among you? This only would learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the f1esh?"
 Correlative readings from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Fey to the Scrip ture" by Mary Baker Eddy, include the following citation from page 355: 32-5: Strangely enough, we ask for material theories n support of spiritual and eternal truths, when the two are so antagonistic that the material thought must become spiritllalized before Che spiritual fact is attained. So-called material exist ence affords no evidence of spiritual existence and immortality
