Regardless of the Law

Do You Know
That Howard University, famous
Negro school, located in Washing
ton, D. c., was started in a build
ing formerly used as a dance hall
and beer parlor? The school was
opened May 2, 1867. Four white
women were among the first to ap-
ply for admittance. The school ad-
mitted everybody-old and young,
black and white, rich or poor, edu-
Gated and ignorant; poor white
boys from the cotton fields of
Louisiana - Negro boys and girls
from the corn fields of Ohio-all
entered with or without funds. The
medical school had its beginning in
a woodshed in the rear of the beer
parlor; the College of Liberal Arts
continued for a short time in the
old saloon until better quarters
could be found.
The charter for the school was
granted by Congress March 2, 1867.

Chicago, June 6.-(AP)-Republi-

down-State gains in Illinois NUM-

tanned a contested State Supreme
Court seat, and scored landslide
gains in Cook county (Chicago).
Circuit Judge Murphy of Mon

ton, of Moline, Republican. Murphy
replaces a retiring Democrat.
Because the Democrats, who gave
incumbent Republican judges places
on their coalition ticket, defeated the
Republican slate by margins of more
than two to one, Republican leaders
refused to join the customary coali-
ton, but incumbent Republican
judges ran on Democratic ticket.

heavy gains, electing 80 circuit

Spain that General Franco had asked
him for help in the first month of the

aid him."
A parade of the veterans before
Hitler and his No. l aide, Field Mar

concrete indication of the extent of
German help for the Spanish ma

Ter spoke to them for IL minutes.
The fuehrer denounced scathingly
anti-Franco campaigns in Britain
and France, declaring that "for years
French and English newspapers dis
semnated the lie that Germany and
Italy intended to conquer Spain and
to rob her Of her colonies"
This is a trend of thought which
appeared less improbable to the rep
reSentatives of these countries than
to us, because the robbery of foreign
colonies has always belonged to the
SIDE ana approved methods OF these
democracies."
(Spain has African colonial pos
sessions of 128,696 square miles, a.

He thanked his Condor Legion for
its silent fulfillment of duty" in
Spain, and added:
The entire nation, and especially
national socialism, knows that the
sacrifices of blood were not in vain"
Reviewing the history of the
Spanish civil war; he praised Gen
eral Franco as a genial marshal
who arose to lead his fatherland out
of destruction into a greater future"
In closing, Hitler said: Long live
