Smith Tells
Group Negro
Needs Friends

Instead Of banquets and
speeches in places like this the
American Negro needs desperate
ly, white friends who. have the
courage and grit to speak out
in all groups under all circum-
stances-in favor Of justice and
fair play for American citizens
who happen to be colored." With
this statement DR.. H. M. Smith,
head Of the Chicago Baptist In
stitute, aroused more than 500
young Baptists in their annual
banquet meeting at the North
Shore Baptist church (White),
within stones throw Of the ma
tionally known Edgewater Beach
Hotel in Chicago last week.
These young people, organized
as the Inter-racial Fellowship Of
Chicago Baptist Youth, included
in their membership Japanese,
Chinese, Rumanians, MeXicans,
Germans, Filipinos, white Ameri-
cans, and colored Americans.
DR.. Smith reminded this inter-
racial audience: "The social ques-
lions and customs of America are
often settled by one person who
believes something SO thoroughly
that he or she speaks their mind
in all groups. More often than
not, the people who have spoken
out in meetings have been the
enemies of the Negro and the
friends Of prejudice. It is our
Job to see to it that this is chang
ed-and our silent friends begin
to speak up"

for rejoicing. Our victory in the
final election will then be secure.
The Primary election, given us by
the great liberal leaders of the past,
is your nominating convention. No
party can long survive that does not
take its principles from the hearts
of the people and choose its leaders
by a direct and free choice of the
voters
If we win this battle we can go
forward to constructive accomplish
ments. Let us save the Farmer-Labor
party that it may go forward to
greater usefulness and become in
creasingly a power for good in the
state and nation.
1 happen to be the Individual to
whom thousands of Farmer-Laborites
have appealed as the man to lead this
fight against the betrayal of our party.
Needing that call, and believing it
my duty, 1 filed today as candidate
for Governor on the Farmer-Labor
ticket
have no apology for accepting the
leadership of those who are striving
to return our party to a practical
application of those principles that
stand for an honest, God-fearing,
progressive government.
My decision to contest for the NOM
nation of governor upon my party
ballot is the result of calm delibera-
ton, and sincere consideration of
the effect upon my party and my
state. The fight must be made The
battle will be won. Thank you.
Issues Filing Statement.
Mr.. Petersen, upon filing for the
office of Governor, Monday, issued
the following statement:
''The Farmer-Labor party must
return to the practice of its funda-
mental principles of democracy.
Spells system manipulation and coer-
cion have driven some party adherents
far afield from the democratic philos-
ophies and teachings of Thomas JEFF
ferson. Civil service is a funda-
mental reform without which other
governmental reforms will not be
attained. 1 am for the enactment
of good civil service law in Min
nesota and if elected Governor, so
far as am concerned, it will be &C
complished in the next regular ses-
sion of the Legislature, regardless of
future political effects. We must win
back the waning confidence in State
wholly progressive, based upon COM
mon sense and the lessons taught by
experience"

Value Of Records

The talk coming from baseball cir
cles as to salary figures for the COM
ing season brings to mind that our
actions largely are governed by rec
ords. If ball player has made a
good record during the past year
he may expect raise or at least the
same salary figure. If he has made
a very good record, he may expect
a very good raise. But on the other
hand if he had poor season, his
salary figure is very apt to be small
Ter and his only recourse is to hold
out or sign and attempt to prove that
he is not a permanent "flop."
Records not only hold true in the
sports world but they likewise gov
ern our actions in other fields of en-
deavor. If we are in public office
our records as to honest service to
the public are taken into considera-
ton and if we are in business, our
record as to successful operation of
business in the past is criterion of
future welfare. Likewise if we are
looking for another farm to rent or
purchase, our past record in that line
is inquired into. So it goes, records
govern our actions and play an i'm
portant part in our lives.
Thus it is seen that each and every
one should give the best that is in
him at all times so that his record
may be above reproach. 1t will mean
much to his future.

BORROWING FROM PETER TO
PAY PAUL

Editor Askov American:
The so-called Recession of 1887,
which in all probability is the be-
ginning of another far more serious
depression, is conclusive proof that
we cannot borrow ourselves into a
lasting recovery.
In fact, we have been borrowing
from Peter to pay Paul ever since
1880.
On March l, 1885, the administra-
ton hit upon new scheme to raise
money with which to pay unearned
tribute to the money changers under
the guise of interest on the public
debt.
At that time the administration
started high pressure sales program
for the sale of United States Savings
Bonds.
Millions of dollars have been spent
in advertising, and every conceivable
type of propaganda resorted to, in
order to further the sale of these
bonds.
On December Is, 1887, the treasury
department proudly announced that
the total cash sales had passed the
billion dollar mark.
Quite an achievement, maybe?
Unless you also consider that the I'M
earned tribute paid to the money
changers, under the guise of interest
on the government debt alone, dur
ing this same period, amounted to
nearly S2,240,00O,000. Or in other
words, for every dollar the govern
ment received from the sale of
United States Savings Bonds, it paid
out 1924 in unearned tribute to the
money changers under the guise of
interest on the public debt, for
which society did not receive one
penny's worth of wealth in return.
l wonder from whom the admin
istration will borrow money with
which to pay the interest on the
United States Savings Bonds?
Congress, by short joint resolu-
ton on June 5, 1888, repudiated all
obligations of the United States gov
eminent to pay its debts in gold.
Unless we stop issuing bonds, and
adopt policy of issuing full legal
tender currency instead, it will soon
become necessary for Congress to
enact another short joint resolution
repudiating all Understanding tax
exempt bonds.

Meanest Man

Often it is voiced as to the find
ing of the worlds meanest man. If
there should be a title each week
for that type of manhood then we
would not hesitate to name as a
candidate, Peter Anders, who has
been arrested and has confessed to
the kidnap-murder of Charles Ross,
wealthy Chicago man, and comrade
in crime
Anders stated that he killed his
partner and Ross the next day after
the $4,000 ransom money had been
paid. 1t is detestable crime in itself
to kidnap for money, but to kill ones
victim and then his companion in
crime that he may spend all of the
loot is just beyond the human
imagination. He would be the lowest
form of human; the kind who could
be in the same category as the one
who preys on innocent women and
children.
