DIVINE HOLDINGS NOW $780,
600 IN UPSTATE N. Y.

New York, (C)-Holdings of Father
Divine and his angels acquired in
Ulster county, in Kingston and nearby
towns, since 1885, are estimated as
being worth $4,000, and it is esti-
mated that $4,000 more has been
spent in improvements, making total
valuation of $4,000, according to
front page feature article in the
Herald-Tribune Monday morning. 1t
is believed the properties, some twen-
ty-five in number, were bought for
about $4,000. The Divineites keep
their Kingdoms" and promised
lands" clean, and all followers, both
white and colored pay allegiance to
Divine as "God,' 1t is reported. Die
vines recent addition to his holdings
in fashionable Sutton Manor on Long
Island Sound has caused CONSERVATION
among some whites. Divine brought
several of his properties through
white women who paid cash in bills ef
large denominations. Banks selling the
properties did not know they were
going to Divine until the deeds had
been executed.
White and colored angels" live in
the Kingdoms" in perfect peace" it
is reported, a fact which has caused
much concern among some whites not
Of the Divine faith.

Rad ORDERED TO
REINSTATE WALTERS
WITH BACK WAGES.

Chicago, July, tCNA)-The Joint
Council of Dining Car Employees won
tremendous victory this week with
the ruling of the National Railroad Adj
justment Board that the New York,
New Haven and Hartford Railroad
Company must reinstate, with COM
pondation for loss of wages suffered
since June 18th, 1888, number of Me-
gro dining car cooks and walters fired
by the road when it introduced the
new type of Grill and Cafeteria Car.
The new cafeteria cars replaced a
number of dining Cars and were staff
ed by white girls, not previously in the
employ of the Carrier, at wages lower
than those paid the walters under an
agreement in effect between the road
and the union At the same time, SEN
ior Negro employees were reduced to
1.-THE Extra Board of furloughed from
service.
The union based its claim for rein
statement and compensation of the
fired men, upon "the long established
principle that senior qualified employees
shall have the right to advancement
to preferred runs and higher rated posi-
tions with the craft or class and the fact
that Management arbitrarily removed
work from the jurisdiction of the
agreement and assigned those duties
to other persons who formerly held no
seniority with the Carrier as dining
service employees"
The union charged further that the
road violated the agreement again when
"it established rate of pay" for the
new employees lower than the wage
scale specified in the agreement.
| The Board sustained the contentious
of the union both counts.

MEDAL BY PRESIDENTS
WIFE

ton that your achievement far trans
cends any race or creed" Mrs. Eleanor
d. Roosevelt, wife of the President,
presented the oath Spingarn Medal to
Miss Anderson, world famous contral-
to, before an audience of 5000 at the
concluding session of the 30th annual
conference of the N.AA.C.P., at the
Mosque, Sunday afternoon
Mrs. Roosevelt told the audience
that Miss Anderson had the courage to
meet many difficulties and that her
nodesty and her great gift are we'll
known. In short address prior to
the medal presentation Mrs. Roosevelt
asserted that people cannot grow up
good citizens unless we provide good
environment for all the people. In the
end the price we pay for people not
fit to be citizens is far greater than the
sacrifice we must make to provide
decent environment
In accepting the award which is
given annually for the American Ne
gro who Shall have made the highest
achievement during the preceding year
or years in any honorable field of
human endeavor," Miss Anderson said
she appreciated the significance it car
ries and declared that she felt it a sig

only First Lady in name, but in

a shoe store have confessed to rob-
bing Nelligan's Boot Shop, 722 F
street NV, Monday, Inspector Ber-
nard w. Thompson, chief of detec-
tives, was informed today by Balti-
more officers.
The men were arrested shortly
after the $l8 holdup of Baltimore
store.
Inspector Thompson arranged i'm
mediately to send three proprietors
of shoe stores here to Baltimore in
an effort to identify the men as
the shoe store bandits who have
harassed local stores for several
weeks.
Those going are j. H. Nellgan,
proprietor of Nelligan's Boot Shop:
Mike Goldstein of 1905 Georgia ave-
nue. NV, and Isadore Greenberg Of
1888 Seventh street NV. Detec-
tive Sergt. E. E. Thompson Of the
robbery squad was to accompany
them.
Mr.. Nelligan's store was held up
in the rush hour shortly after noon
and robbed of about $50.
The men, one reported to be a
parolee from an Ohio reformatory,
are to be placed in police lineup
and viewed by other holdup victims.
They have not yet been formally
charged in the robbery.
