EOLONIES REPORTED
] GRANTED TO HITLER

BERLIN, Feb. (CNA)-Persistent
reports prevailed in diplomatic quar-
ters here this week that Germany is
about to get back some of the colo
nies she lost in the World War
This concession, authoritative
sources said, is the result of secret
negotiations which have been going
Ion between Britain and Germany for
some time. 1t is stated that Great
Britain is not averse to meeting the
Nazis' demand for return of posses
sions lost as a result of the war if
Germany agrees to fulfill certain con-
ditions.
The reports were further strength
ened by speech in the House Of
Lords by the Marques of Crewe,
Britain's wartime Ambassador to
France urging satisfaction OF Ger
man colonial claims.
Premier Mussolini was stated to
have urged the meeting with the un-
derstanding that Hitler would get
colonies and Italy would obtain Brit
ish recognition of the conquest of
Ethiopia.

The Mess Line

Ordinarily we save this space to
devote to the blood curdling, hair rails
ing activities that might be of interest
Whether or not this raises your
hair, curdles your blood, or gives you
a deep laugh in the vicinity of your
belt buckle, is up to you.
Last year, when the Summer field
homes were a haven for those whose
roofs were not SO good, about a dozen
interested citizens, who had the in
terest of the group at heart painfully
trudged about the city, begging per-
sons who might be benefited to regis
ter IN order to be able to secure hous-
ing.
They got close to five hundred
names. That was before the practice
of letting low cost housing projects
to private groups or individuals came
into vogue.
Now that the homes are built, and
there is some likelihood of private
groups administering, and thereby
saying who shall and who shall not
be housed, here come the black gods
of destiny, to save the race.
We had the honor of sitting in or
the last committee meeting, and Will,
possibly three of the committee kney
what it was all about, and were in
spired by real motives of service, some
dull axes were in evidence, others were
available.
Acting as a member. of the housing
committee affords one position of
influence; an opportunity to protect
the interests of the group if one is
patriotic; an opportunity to accept
little lucre if one is inclined to sell
out; an opportunity to put the homes
of large group of Negro families on
a par with any in the. city, if one has
the stamina. In all probability one
OF the upper crusters will make his
bid for the position, so we urge every
one who is interested to attend the
meeting March 6, and if not interested
come out and help the fellow who is.
We know that some of the commit
tee are above reproach; on some we
would hesitate to pass an opinion; as
for the rest-no one can look on the
face of the gods and live, SO who am
| to say. Let him who is without sin
cast the first stone.
