0.N.S.) D. E. Montgomery, con-

Gated today that an investigation
may be ordered to determine why
bread prices remain at a high level
despite reductions in the costs of
Ingredients.
Montgomery stated his figures
showed that although m ark e t
prices of ingredients of white
bread are two-thirds of a cent
lower per loaf than last April, the
national average retail price is one
third of a cent higher than the
same period.
This extra cost, he said, could
not be charged up to labor since
statistics showed no major in
creases in labor costs.
Reports and charges Of Co
ercive practices. together with
extraordinary rigidity of retail
bread prices during recent
months, suggest the need of a
far-reaching examination into
the price-determining factors"
Montgomery said in turning
over his report to Secretary
Wallace.
Ten. baking companies, he said,
produced 81 per cent Of the ma
tion's bread while three Of these
produce 10 per cent.

Hold Own Meeting
In Oklahoma City

Oklahoma, Dec. Is (ANP)-Ok-

city in the nation where Negro
business men have held their own.
Because of the great oil field,
that sprang up on the Negro sec
ion in 1929, business, professional
and educational circles have been
able to absorb their losses on one
eide of the ledger, while counting
huge profits in liquid gold which
spouted then and is still gushing

TOUCHDOWN AGAINST
OLD jim CROW
Continued from page Five)

Readers never know about the
Negro flash by watching the news
papers. You have to see Jefferson
to really appreciate him.
IT is THESE gridiron aces who
are playing the biggest part in
the kicking position, and has a bet
ter average for successful passes
than any other Evanston back.
1t was Jeff he sent North
westerns hopes for conference
honors soaring when in the closing
minutes of the game against Mimi
este with the Gophers leading 80
he tore through for a winning
touchdown.
TT is THESE gridiron aces who
are playing the biggest part in
throwing Jim Crow for a loss in
stadium both North and South of
the Mason Dixon line.
Negro and white fans join in
grandstands to wildly cheer them
on as they tote the pigskin balls
down the grass-covered gridirons
of the nation.
These three are not alone. There
are dozens of others. Horace Bell
of Minnesota Wilmeth S~idat-Singh
of Syracuse, Woodrow Wilson
Strobe of UCLA, Bib Ed Williams
of New York university, and Char
les Russell of Washington.
They've got the fight and spirit
to toss race discrimination for a
heavy loss on the American athle-
tic scene, and especially in Big
League baseball. It's up to a Negro
and white sportsmen in the stands
and outside football grounds to
carry the march yards more down
the field for equality regardless of
race, color or creed.
