WASHINGTON - Recognizing
the increased part which Negro
youths are playing in public af-
fairs and politics, the Young Re-
publican National Federation at its
biennial national convention earlier
this month, elected Chas. Stokes,
33 years old, of Leavenworth, Kan
sas, as a vice-chairman of this ma
tion-wide organization.
Stokes election followed the a
mendment of the Federation's con-
stitution providing that hereafter
one of the seven vice-chairmen
must be a member of the colored
race. Thus the young Negro Kan
sas lawyer becomes the first of his
race to hold such a high post in the
Federation. The Federation, the
official national organization of
Young Republicans, held its bien-
NAL convention in Kasas City, Mis-
souri,, on June 10 and IL.

At Atlanta University

ATLANTA, Ga. - Last Thurs
day, in the Exhibition Gallery of
the Atlanta University Library, a
large audience listened attentively
to DR.. w. E. B. Dubois discuss
1.-THE Racial and Political Minori-
ties in the World" This was the
second in a series of five open for
ums which will be conducted at
the Atlanta University Summer
School during the present session.
Ira De A. Reid, professor of So
GEOLOGY at Atlanta University, pre-
sided.
In opening his subject the speak
err pointed out that it would be al
most impossible to put pencil on
any large country in the world to-
day without coming across some
problem of racial or political min
critics. In all of the problems, he
said, there is the matter of in
come, the question of national i
deals in the attempt at Imperial
expansion, religion and race.
Five particular cases were cited
by the speaker in the course of his
discussion: the Irish in Great Bri-
tain, the Jews in Germany, the
Germans in Czecho-Slovakia, the
English in India, and the Dutch in
South Africa.

Joe Louis Victory BaIks Nai
Plans For Race Hatred Claims

"crime" that Schmeling committed
is far more serious, since his de-
feat puts to ridicule the Nazis
claims of "racial superiority"
For weeks the regimented Nazi
press had played up the bout, pre-
dieting that Schmeling would win
ION the basis of blood" The Nazi
weekly, Box Sport, devoted its en-
tire last issue to proving" with
quotations from Nazi race scien-
lists" and seventeen boxing auth
critics "the utter umpossibility"
of a defeat for Schmeling.
Yesterdays afternoon papers
carried banner-like dispatches from
New York on the fight. Sports
pages were crammed with pictures
of Schmeling. The shot displayed
most prominently was that of Lou
is stretched on the canvas two
years ago when Schmeling defeat
ed him.
The papers played up news from
Italy that the Mussolini regime
was also treating the fight as a
major political event and had or
dered a national hook-up with the
Yankee Stadium.
1t was reported that Adolph Hit
Ter sat up all night at his Bavar-
ian retreat at Berchtesgaden to
hear the fight broadcast, which
went on the air at o'clock, Ber-
lin time. The disappointed Fuehr-
er had made no comment so far
on the outcome. He will probably
ignore it as he ignored the Ameri-
can Negro stars at the Berlin O.
lympics in 1886.

New York Subway To
Open Jobs to Negroes

NEW YORK = Employment of
colored men in jobs above the
grades of elevator operator and
porter was promised the NAACP
by the PETERBOROUGH Rapid Tran
sit Co. here in letter from Thos.
e. Murray, Jr., receiver of the IRT
to Chas. H. Houston, special coun-
sci of the NAACP.
The IRT is one of the privately
owned subway systems of New
York City. Heretofore the system
has employed Negroes only as por-
tiers and elevator operators.
When the new municipality own
ed Eighth Ave subway system was
opened in September, 1882, color
ed men were employed immediate
ly by it as station agents. After
several years of effort, colored
men were admitted to the civil SER
vice examinations for guard, or
conductor, and later were admitted
to the examinations for motormen.
At the present time there are nu-
merous Negro station agents, a
goodly number of conductors and
platform men and eleven Negro
motormen on the municipal sys-
tenn.
The two privately owned sys-
TENS, the IRT and the BMT, have
closely restricted Negroes in en-
ployment. The NAACP has been
working on the problem for sever
al years and has finally received
assurance that the IRT will en-
ploy a number of Negroes as plat
form men and station agents.
However, the IRT has made the
concession with a string upon it,
and that is that if the Negro en-
ployees in these new positions do
not make good or have friction
with the public, the new policy
will be discontinued.
In writing to the IRT, the MA
CP has suggested that it has adj
opted the wrong approach to the
problem psychologically and that
Negroes ought to be employed
without any strings, on merit al
one. AS for friction, the NAACP
points out that for six years the
municipal subway has been using
Negro employees and that in all
that time no friction with the pub
lie due to color, has been reported.

BERLIN June % (CNA) THE
plans of the Nazi regime to utilize
the Louis-Schmeling championship
bout for racialist hysteria and for
phoney "Aryan superiority" claims
went by the board last night as
the news came over the ether that
Louis had flattened out the "Nazi
Hope" in the first round of their
scheduled 15-round go.
A German hook-up with Yankee
Stadium, New York, permitted a
broadcast of the fight throughout
Maitland, with Nazi commentators
whipping UP racial feeling towards
the expected climax of jubilant
announcement that the superior
Aryan" had triumphed over the
inferior" Negro.
Millions of Germans clustered
about short-wave radio sets in the
cafes, bars, clubs and homes under
orders of the government that ev-
erybody was to listen in or else
The faithful went to bed a sad
dened lot, while opponents of the
regime tried hard to conceal their
amusement at the chagrin of the
Nazis.
Something's crushing defeat at
the hands of Louis was taken here
as a disgrace" from the Nazi ra-
cial viewpoint, and it was predict
ed that Make faces oblivion or ev-
en- the concentration camp if he
returns to Germany. 1t was re-
called that Baron Won Cramm, the
German tennis ace, was tossed in
to a concentration camp following
his defeat by Don Bulge last fall
at Forest Hills, New York. The
