V.ncennes Shclus Ho,U
r g ''' .ouO Rent
rejects

A news release from N asli-
ington published elsewhere n
this issue tells Of the low rent
nousl sg project at Nineennes,
Ind. Units ii these dWelhn9
contain FIVE rooms and bath,
with ample space in front,
rear and on the side for gar
dens and flowers The five
room units rent for $3.50 per
month.
Several weeks since, the
Forum pointed out that the
Dayton metropolitan Housing
Authority made several mis-
takes from lack Of knowledge
of the needs Of colored people.
We stated that the board
should have at least one col
ored member as has been the
custom III almost every feder-
al housing project. Three new
members have been added to
the board recently, colored ap
plicants being ignored IN each
appointment. Why the city
and county officials persist IN
thrusting this housing project
on colored citizens without
giving them an opportunity to
participate in the planning IS
beyond our comprehension.
Several blunders have been
made already by the Dayton
Metropolitan Housing Author
ity--the site, size Of buildings,
rentals. general layout and
the "big city plan Of the un-
its. A colored member Of the
board would have seen these
Objectionable features. More
over, we still contend that the
rentals are too high. If the
housing authority at Nincen-
mes can rent a two bedroom
unit for $3.50 per month why
must the cost in Dayton be
$500 plus? We dare say the
people Of Vincennes have
more opportunities for en-
ployment and at higher wag-
es than the colored people
have here in Dayton.
The officials here have fail
ed to deal Justly with the col
ored people. Indeed, they
have failed the whole citizen
~. Why should the tax pay
ers' money be spent on q hous-
ing scheme that will not i'm

WINGS OVER
JORDAN" PUT
BACK ON WHO

-DAYTON-Aftcr an absence of
several weeks the popular radio pro-
gram wings Over Jordan will
come back on WHO Sunday morn
ihg at $40.
The program was taken off Of tn"
local station April 2 after being a
regular feature for many months.
Decision to remove the program was
not due to the quality of the pro-
gram but to the lack of information
as to how popular it was in this
area.
In recent weeks 1t has been found
by the management of WHO that
wings Over Jordan" has a wide
audience Of colored and white lis
teners. One very prominent admir-
er Of the program is Walter Locke,
editor of the Dayton News, which
owns station WHO
Although wings Over Jordan"
was discontinued in this area scores
Of station throughout the nation
kept it when radio program changes
were made April 2.
Failure Of colored people to write
letters to radio stations has been the
cause why stations don't present
more colored talent or keep the tai
ent which they offer occasionally.

Cattle Men Offer
Animals for Sale
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, Aug. 28.-Cattle growers
of western North Carolina have
more than 10000 desirable beef cat
tie animals they'd like to sell in
eastern North Carolina, or to pro-
ducers in other states; and the
State Department of Agriculture is
going to do all it can to help pro-
mote the sales, it appears from a
neat booklet just issued by the de-
Dartment.
The booklet has been mailed to
prospective purchasers, and con-
tains a complete enumeration of
the 1880 "for sale" cattle which
are owned by COZ farmers of Ale
ghany, Ashe, Avery, Buncombe,
Haywood, Madison, Mitchell and
Watauga.
Boosting the sales is Paul L. Flet-
cher, livestock marketing specialist
of the department, who declares
that North Carolina feeder cattle
gain on an average of 700 pounds
more per year than animals win
tered Elsewhere.
'This should prove an attractive
feature in disposing Of the animals'',
Fletcher said. Irrespective buyers
are being sent an illustrated bulle-
tin listing the name of the owners
and complete description of the
animals offered on the market"
The booklet is being sent to ap-
proximately 1000 buying prospects,
including 665 out-of-state livestock
growers.
"While we are seeking to boost
the sale of good North Carolina
stock to farmers in nearby states,
az the same time we are serving
our own eastern North Carolina
growers, many of whom have been
buying their feeder cattle from far
western states", said Fletcher.
North Carolina's western farmers
produce some of the finest feeder
cattle available and it is economi-
cally sound for our growers to
patronize each other in building a
greater livestock PROGRAM"
