Miss E. @. Tibbs, statistician and
actuary of the National Negro In.
surance Association, and released
through G. l.. Townes, secretary, are
$2O,O92,955.76. This is $486, 109. III
more than was recorded in the last
statistical report, made by Cyrus
Campfield for the year 1886. Camp
field recorded S19,606,8 ,846. OF. Al
though assets have increased, insur-
ance in force has decreased, accord
ing to the Tibbs report, to $272,-
527,2SS. The Campfield report show
ed insurance in force at $500, ,749,-
OFT. Also, the Tibbs report shows
that while $179,846, 1856 insurance
was issued in '37, there was lapsed
$157,198,163, which accounts for the
new promotion plans of the Associa-
ton to seek higher type Of busi--

A total of $2,5S0,491 was paid in

| NEW YORK. Aug. To- (cNA)
! Father Divine repudiated this
week an attempt by Rowland Spen-
Ger, wealthy white gentleman far
mer and New Deal foe, to line him
up as in opposition to the New Deal
following the transaction by which
Spencer turned over to the cult
leader his 500 acre estate at Krum
Elbow, opposite President Roose--
velts family seat on the Hudson
River.
In speech in the banoueting hall
Of his heaven at 1890 Wess
l26th street, the cult leader told
his followers he was not in conf1ici
with the Sew Deal.
Alluding to Spencer's openly ex-
pressed hatred of the progressive
reforms of the Roosevelt admins
tration, he said:
"For this cause, / wish to say We
are not having any grievance with
any person or persons. We highly
appreciate having any person or per-
sons represent our communities in
the highest order of things, and we
do not have anything to criticize the
President for, neither to speak
word against the President on ac--
count Of what the press said that he
and Mr.. Spencer had disagreed on.
Meanwhile, the wealthy anti-New
Dealer denied that he was motivated
by spite in arranging that the Roose-
yelts should have as neighbor one
of the noisy, hectic "heavens'' Of
Father Divine, but found "sort of
amusing" the thought of the steam
boats that will bring thousands of
colored people from New York to
swim in the Hudson here and have
picnics on the hills" 1t is under
stood that Spencer first donated a
parcel of his property to the Divine
cult, which then purchased additional
property, reputedly at figure of
$4,000.
Spencer thinks the Divine cult is
a Etgood thing because its followers
take vows of chastity and poverty"
He is violently opposed to the New
Deal because of it's program Of un-
employment relief, and its efforts to
initiate floor for wages and cell
ing for hours and other reforms. He
complains that he could not get men
to work his farm for the wages he
offered, and asserts that President
Roosevelt is heading for Russian
state"
