My dear old daddy was good man,
good to everybody; so good and kind
to us children. So true and kind to
mother. And in his last hours he
suffered a great deal, but he bore it so
pathetically. So many times he
would call mother to the bed and kiss
the back of her hand, and tell her
that he was ready to go to that
beautiful garden of flowers. So
many times when we children went
to see him he would reach out his
poor old feeble hands with a big hug.

Members Testify To Favor Minister;
Evidence Helps Rev. H. L. tombstone
Court Will Render Decision On January 9th
Right To Use Money Claimed

It was the consensus of opinion
of those who witnessed the trial
of Reverend H. L. tombstone, for
mer pastor of the A.ME. Zion
church at 23rd and East Olive SITS,
that the charge would be dropped
by the Prosecutors office for lack
of evidence when the case is called
again January 81.
Charges were brought by Allen
]. Butler, chairman of the Board
of Trustees charging Reverend H.
L. tombstone with grand larceny.
Butler in his complaint claimed the
church had been told the property
on Main street where tombstone is
accused of collecting rents and CIV
ing no account of the money, had
been sold and was no longer owned
by the church. Several short heat
ed clashes between Butler and at
torney MCGEE for the defense lent
bit of humor to the trial.
Mrs. Marjorie Pitter, who has
been the secretary of the church
since Reverend tombstone became
its pastor, told the court that both
the bishop and the church body
had given permission for Rever-
end tombstone to collect and use
the money for his sustenance, as
the church could pay him no sal
airy Her statements were con-
firmed by Mr.. George Moore who
said he was present at the meeting
when the Board of Trustees gave
permission to the minister to col
lect and use the rents. However,
Mr.. Ellis, who said he was the
pastors steward and chairman of
the Board of Trustees at the time
Reverend tombstone took over the
local church, claimed that no such
authority had been given the min
lister and that he was under the

Make Your Own
Job Opportunity
Airline N. Paiya

Last summer when I passed
through Minneapolis 1 was shown
a thriving little cafe owned and
operated by four young men who
were astute enough to see the ben
efits of pooling their money for
this business venture. Why can't
some young men in Seattle who
are definitely out of school and
have talent and training in this
field, make similar start.
Take good location like How
ards Cafe, which understand can
be had for reasonable price, Of
fer a limited Bill of Fare-say Chi
Ii, hamburger, homemade pies and
coffee-arrange convenient hours
to catch early and late trade, and
open up for business. I suggest a
limited Bill of Fare-make your
own selection because under eff
ficient management this will cut
down losses and ought to insure a
neat profit.
One going into such a business
in the neighborhood could well con-
cede all of the meal trade to Mrs.
Art Smith. Mrs. Smith might in
turn divert some of her short order
business to the cafe. Then the
young cafe operators must realize
that in order to make a success of
such business they must cater to
all classes of trade. The place of
business should be kept free of
loiterers in order to attract the
numerous church people going to
and fro; the service must be cour-
teous and prompt to entice the
working people to drop in; and a.
bove all the food must be excep-
Honally good and tasty in order to
obtain and maintain the bulk of
the short order business.
dare to predict that efficient
management, good food, courteous
service, attractive surroundings
and convenient hours, backed up
by lot of ambition, will secure
success for this business venture
because trade will come not only
from the immediate neighborhood,
but from blocks and blocks away.

''See How They Rum

"See How They Rum" George M

which won the Dramatists Guild
first prize for last year, will open
this coming Monday, Dec. 5, for
weeks run at the Metropolitan
Theatre, with performances at $3.50
each night and two special matin-
ees at p. m. on Wednesday and

Presented by the WPA Federal

quent demands from the University
and other quarters.
Based on events occurring dur
ing a sit-down strike in modern
industrial town, "See How They
Run" is a modern, swift-paced
melodrama that tears the lid off
labor strife in the American city
of today. All the well-known fig
ures-the banker, the Industrial
list, the politician, the crooked la
Dor leader, and the workers them
selves, are brought into the series
of swift, camera-like scenes.

Walter White Chides M. E. Bishop
For Being "Disheartening" Example

where lynching is tolerated is the
United States of America. Rec
ords are available showing the
hundreds of innocent people of both
races have been victims of mob
violence. This is a form of vio-
lence which America must deal
with in a most positive way and
we put ourselves on record as sup
porters of such legislation as will
make lynching an offense against
the American government"
Bishop Hughes, according to the
newspaper, took issue with that
part of the resolution which said:
1.-THE only nation in the world
where lynching is tolerated is the
United States of America" Com
menting on this part of the reso-
luton, he is quoted as having said:
''It may do our country an in
justice since it is not quite the
fact that lynching is tolerated."
Bishop Highes is senior bishop of
the M. E. Church. Mr.. Whites

NEW YORK Bishop Edwin
Holt Hughes, of the Methodist E.
piscopal church, was criticized by
Walter White, executive secretary
of the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
as a "disheartening" example of
a great leader of a great church
guilty of attempting to cast out
the Nazi mote in eyes across the
sea while ignoring" beams in A
merican eyes.
The criticism, which was con-
tanned in letter addressed to the
Bishop November %, and made
public today, was occasioned by a
report appearing in Philadelphia
daily paper last week which placed
the bishop on record as giving COM
fort to reactionaries who are OPP
posed to the passage of a federal
anti-lynching bill by Congress.
The paper said the bishop took
exception to the wording of a res
olution against lynching introduced
by the Rev. w. A. c. Hughes, di-
rector of Negro work in the Meth
odist Episcopal church, at the an
nual meeting of the denominations
board of home missions and church
extension in Philadelphia Satur-
day, November 10.
The anti-lynching resolution,
which failed of passage, despite the
fact that the board passed strong
resolution against the Nazi govern
ment's persecution of the Jewish
people in Germany, reads as fol-
lows:

Mail Order Romeo
In Trouble Again
BY HEX

HELENA, Mont, Dec. 1-"Old
Man" Parker was up to his neck
in trouble again last week. Parker
has very fancy chirography (the
art of handwriting) and delights to
use it to entice women who seek a
heart balm by the mail route, to
join with him in matrimonial ven
lures. This mail order wife came,
saw, and departed to her home
again, with the aid of county as
sistance. This makes Parker's
third venture in that direction and
the results are all the same. Park
er, over 70, is old enough to do
better but-in his cases, distance
seems better fuel to keep loves

For Reciprocal Purchasing By Race
Negro Must Receive Return On Money Spent;

slogan of the Lewis plan of the

and the merchandise with whom

competition, maintains a policy
of fairness towards my race"
Last week Mr.. Joseph Jackson
of the Seattle Urban League
brought to light an incident where
certain large gasoline and au-
tomobile accessory firm were ask
ed about their policy of not hiring
Negroes. 1t was declared that the
company had no policy against
hiring Negroes, but it did not
practice hiring them in the North
west. A very well-known family
moved their account from this
firm, and wrote a letter stating
the reason the account (Which
was lucrative one) was moved.
That is the kind of militant ac-
ton that will be necessary before
the race receives employment In
dividuals and organizations must
watch where they spend their mon
ey, and go a few blocks farther,
if by so doing purchases can be
made at firm that maintains a
policy of fairness. The Japanese
people demonstrated the results

adjustments that are fair, right

Public To Demand
Hearing on License

SEATTLE, Nov. 80 1t was
learned today from sources that
are considered reliable, that a
group of citizens will demand a
public hearing from the Liquor
Board on the application of Mr..
Perry Gillian for a beer license at
his restaurant, corner of 21st and
East Madison.
The application for this license
has met with many mysterious
moves and people living in the dis
trict who wish to have beverages
with a meal have interested them
selves to have public hearing on
the matter.
