Ralph E. Mizelle
Speaks at Alpha
Phi Alpha Forum

Ralph E. Mizelle, assistant at
torney in the Solicitors Office,
Post Office Department, Washing
ton, was the speaker at the
monthly Forum of the Alpha Phi
Alpha fraternity last Saturday
night, April %, before large
group Of the members. Talking
from the subject, Behind the
Scenes with the New Deal, he
forcefully described the benefits
being derived from this admin
istration, particularly to the col
Ored Americans. He said the adj
ministratiOn had proved its inter-
est in the common people and
every day was developing
methods for making the lives of
all citizens more stable and sat-
isfying He gave facts and data
indicating the immeasurable good
that is being done for the colored
citizenry in general and gave
specific information to show the
high esteem which the Demo-
cratic Party holds for all cOlored
Americans.
Mr.. Mizelle also suggested
remedies for the improvement of
the racial political picture which
depends largely on the attitude
and subsequent action and inter-
est of potential racial leaders and
other outstanding colored citizens.
He said cooperation and unity,
the elimination Of petty feelings
and jealousies, as well as active
participation in political affairs
without thought of financial re-
turn or political appointment
would do much to further the
cause Of the cOlored citizen in
more important consideration as
an integral part in state and ma
tional affairs.
Mr.. Mizelle, with his wife, are
successful attorneys with their
own law firm in New York City.
He is a graduate Of the Univer-
sity Of Illinois and Fordham uni
versity Law School. During the
last Presidential campaign he
was regional director for colored
citizens Of the New England Stat
es and New York, New Jersey and
PENNSYLVANIA. He was recon-
mended to his present position

ter General. While in the city,
