Jewish Leaders Appeal
For Palestine REFUGE

Leaders of 40 Jewish organiza-
tions in the Capital have Joined in
urging the British government to
uphold the pledge made by the
Balfour declaration with respect to
establishment of a Jewish home
land in Palestine.
One of the cablegrams sent to
Prime Minister Chamberlain was
dispatched by the Washington Iii
onist District, Hadassah, Women's
Zionist Organization of America,
the Seaboard Region of Mizrachi
and the Washington Poale Zion.
1t read:
I'VE call upon Great Britain in
this hour of great tragedy for the
Jewish people to uphold the right
OF free immigration of persecuted
Jews into Palestine. Palestine con-
stitutes the chief refuge for thou
sands of homeless refugees, and the
British government must keep faith
with its international pledges and
maintain its honor among the peo-
pie Of the world"

Big Gain in Co|ored
Business Enterprises
Seen by Accountant
Program at Howard U.
Held in Celebration
Of Commerce Dov

Jesse B. Blayton, public account
ant from Atlanta. Ca Yesterday
predicted the 1910 census will show q
large increase over that of 1880 In
the number of Negro business enter
prises in the United States.
Mr.. Blayton spoke before about
go persons participating in the cele-
bration Of Commerce Day, sponsored
by the Howard University Com
merce Club in the university chapel,
He pointed out to the group that a
true evaluation Of the worth of
Negro business enterprise was more
than a matter Of accounting and
figures, but also involved its useful
ness to members of the race and to
the country.
He cited the restrictions placed on
Negro purchasers by many white
enterprises, such as not allowing
them to try on garments, and added
that Negro enterprises afforded
practically the only opportunity for
members OF the race to acquire bus
mess experience. He indicated that
Negro business should be evaluated
on the way 1t meets these situations,
IN addition to other criteria.
Most small businesses, regardless
Of race, keep inadequate records, he
stated, indicating a field of endeavor
In accounting. He also added that
brokerage work is a new field of op-
portunity for capable Negroes.
Mr.. Blayton participated in a
round-table discussion of commu-
nifty organization for better busi-
ness after his address and last night
spoke at a banquet in Sojourner
Truth Hall.
Cooperating with the Commerce
Club in sponsoring the program were
the Washington Chamber of Com
merce, the Washington Society Of
Accountancy and the department of
business practices of the colored di-
vision of the public school system.

George and Elizabeth
At Wedding Of Niece

b. the Associated Press.
LONDON, March 9.-King George
vi and Queen Elizabeth attended
yesterday the wedding OF the
Queens 27-year -old niece, Cecilia
Bowes-Lyon, and Kenneth Haring-
ton, %. The couples engagement
had been broken two years ago be-
cause Harrington considered himself
too poor to marry.
The re-engagement was an
nounced February 4, after Har-
ington quit the British diplomatic
service and took job with a metal
corporation.
A year ago the bride opened a
social bureau" which advised on
social events. wedding arrange
ments, organizing dances and so
on. She plans to continue working
after the wedding trip. The cere-
mony took place in Holy Trinity
Church at Brompton.

ing.
There is silver lining to such an
experience If you persevere. Hold
your leopard frog tight, smooth his
cold skin gently and watch his ner-
vousness disappear, then listen
quietly and hear his musical efforts.
His music box swells into somewhat
rounded spots behind and under his
ears while the singing is in process,
disappearing completely when the
concert is ended-only wrinkles in
the skin indicate the spot.
A friend assures me the females
have a louder and more emphatic
voice. Unless you could try out the
twin. this will remain a rnooted
question, but it would offer much en-
tertainment could a test be made.
Few pets are more satisfactory.
They are beautiful metallic green
above and ivory white below. There
are two prominent gold or bronze
folds of skin which extend from
each eye to the posterior end of the
body. The eye is lovely, with a wide
orange e-gold iris and velvety black
pupil. From the tip of the muzzle
to the shoulder there is a bronze
and golden stripe.

Natures Children
Common Leopard Frog
(Rana pipens)

As we have said, the leopard frog
has wide range and travels far to
its ancestral pond or marsh In early
spring to carol to its mate and
establish a fine family. Then comes
the trek back to the orchard, meadow
or field, even the charming en-
frances to shady dells where the
residence will be the remainder of
the year.
Make note of the spots where you
have encountered the leopard frogs
this autumn, and also try to find
small bodies of water not too far
away. Then when the spring days
again come, you can find the eggs
laid in masses in the shallow water.
Some Of them may be taken home
for special study, and If you have a
pond, you may place them In 1t.
Development is so rapid and the
changes are so marvellous that you
will realize how much you have
missed, once you have followed q life
cycle of this neighbor.

Stevens Starts BUILDING
400 Low-Cosf Homes

Rapid growth Of urban centers
long has constituted . problem to
real estate men from q standpoint
Of providing detached home COM
munities within easy access Of
downtown areas. Usually land cost
is so high as to make erection o1
homes on wide lots almost imprac-
tical.
In the case Of the District Of Co.
lumbia this has been particularly
true. Most Of this city's detached
home communities are on the out
skirts, requiring several minutes by
either public or private Transports
tion methods to reach the business
district.
One Of the few remaining unde-
veloped residential areas close to
the heart Of Washington, located at
Montana and Rhode Island avenues
NE, on a high ridge that overlooks
the city, was acquired last year by
Matthew K. Stevens. His initial
undertaking at the site was the con-
struction Of Brentwood Village
large-scale housing project fostered
under the auspices Of the Federal
Housing Administration to provide
low-rent apartment homes.
This month, however. saw the be-
ginning Of a 45-acre residential
community adjacent to the apart
ment development, in which Mr..
Stevens plans eventually to erect
400 detached three bedroom homes,
priced for families of modest means
Construction of the first % Of these
homes has been completed and more
than half Of these already have
been sold.
