Urban League
Active For Jobs

Seaton W. Manning, head of the In
dustrial Department of the Boston
branch of the National Urban League,
revealed this week that his institution
has launched a three-fold jobs program
that eventually will affect every col
ored person in New England.
Mr.. Manning explained that this new
program will attack the question of
unemployment from three vital angles
the opening of new opportunities for
work, the training necessary to en-
nance the value of the worker in the
job he may now hold, and the careful
guidance of youth in the selection of
training for life employment.
A Clinic for vocational guidance will
be one of the first applications of the
new program. Meetings for this pur-
pose are being held at the Robert Gould
Shaw House each week, and young
people are invited to attend them.
Regarding the opening of new doors
of industry to the race, Mr.. Manning
said that the outlook is far from de-
pressing. He reported interviews with
several heads of industries, and found
that many of them had no objection to
employing colored workers if they can
acquire the skill and training needed
for the specific industries.
Mr.. Manning stated further that his
department is working on a new plan
for training of women in domestic arts
that Will be announced soon. He claim
ed that it will have a number of surpris-
ing points when offered.

ANA AGAIN BARS
RACE DOCTORS

ST. LOUIS, May-(CNA)-Tories
in the American Medical Association
gave notice this week that they were
still in control of that organization BY
voting down a resolution which would
have made possible the admission Of
colored doctors by county societies, and
by ganging up against the Wagner Ma
tional Health Bill now before the Sen
ate.
TIE resolution to lift the ban on col
ored doctors was vigorously supported
by the progressive wing of the associa-
ton at the ANA convention here. Lead
ers of the progressive group announced
that they would Immediately study
other means of lifting the color bars.
The Wagner Health Bill, which is
designed to bring medical aid within
the reach of the underprivileged one
third of the nation, was opposed by
the majority of the delegates as "con-
trary to the best interests of the Amer
lean people" and a threat to the ma
tional health and well-being."
Reactionary leaders of the assoeia-
ton challenged the findings of a Fed
eral survey showing that 100000
Americans lack medical aid They con-
tended that the number was less than
10000. Many physicians declared,
however, that this is an obvious under
statement and pointed to the large por-
ton of the eolored population in the
South who were without any sort of
medical service.

NEW DEAL WINS

Like the reelection of Mayor Kelly
OF Chicago, the election of former Rep-
resentative Maury Maverick as MAYOR
OF San Antonio, Texas, is victory for
the New Deal. Far more political sio-
nli1cance, of course, attaches TO the
result In the country's second largest
city, because the election there took
place during the Congressional slash
ing OF work relief and therefore NAV
be better index of public reaction TO
the WPA cuts; and secondly because
Chicago has large colored population
whose vote may indicate the trend of
colored political sentiment in the nj
yotal states of the Middle West. But
though the Chicago election NAV iustlv
claim preferred attention because the
result is big with warning to both Dem
ocrats and Republicans, the triumph of
Mr.. Maverick, the Texas liberal. is of
surprising interest to all progressives
and especially so to those patient hope
tuls whose admirable faith sees south
ern redemption engineered bv the
South's own efforts, free from outside
meddling.
A congressman from the great south
western state, he was hailed as an ex-
ponent of the progressivism which here
and there in Dixie musters sufficient
strength and courage to contend
against reaction and corruption. AIign-
ing himself with the Northern and
Western majority in Congress he voted
Tor Federal anti-lynching bill and
thus against the traditional reaction
aries Of his home section. He was an
earnest supporter of New Deal legisla-
ton and thus opposed to the "Texas
Jack Garner for President" build-up
propaganda. He was defeated in the
November congressional elections: but
ms defeat seems attributable less to his
liberalism as expressed by his career
In Congress than to renewal of
strength by the corrupt political ma
chime which he consistently fought in
his home city and which he AGAIN
trounced In the recent mayoraltv cleo
ton. His supporters call it "come-
back" and are preparing to support
him again for Congress.
The successes in the two widely sep
arated cities were won by similar coaii-
ton OF labor and progresesives. Disil-
lusloned by the ruthless acts of a vic
torous and overzealous conservatism.
the deluded and broken lines from the
November battles apparently have re-
formed and rallied to their former
standard. Disillusionment seems dine
all around. The New Deal victories are
likely to cause a revision of the iudg-
ment which viewed the conservative
gains OF November as a mandate to
curb the Roosevelt policies.

COlOred Court Officer
Aids Women

(KNS)-Seven Jewish women were
arrested for playing poker at 80 Wal
nut Ave, Roxbury on Thursday, May
Is, 1889. On Friday, May 10, these
women were brought before Judge
Samuel Eisenstadt in the third session
of the Roxbury Court and after their
attorney had admitted a finding of
guilty, the women were lectured and
their cases placed on file since none
of them had previous record in court.
The photographers fingered outside
the courthouse to take pictures, but
to no avail since the ever alert colored
court officer Harry Lotion, courteously
allowed them to leave by side exit.
The young man has just completed his
first year and his work is excellent.

On what charge wild Pig did not

Cheyennes knew 1t was because he
had answered no to the orders sending

frayed buffalo robe about him, Wild
Pig walked out of the door between
two soldiers. His friends never saw

For a time after he left there was
a stunned silence, then the Cheyennes
reused in fear. And there followed the
curious spectacle of prisoners fighting
to remain in prison. There we're many
concealed knives among the Indians
in the open, and preparations made TO
resist the efforts OF the soldiers to
take them from the barracks and send
them south.
When they had been captured they
were allowed to keep all their trinkets
Some OF them were parts Of guns. The
soldiers had seen nothing unusual in
this-but now the different parts were
fitted together, and the CheyenneS
suddenly had weaponsi
They tore up the floor Of the bar
racks room and used it as barricade
over the windows. There followed a
short, brisk fight in which the soldiers
assaulted but were driven off, without
casualties. They made no move TO re-
sumo their assault, and the heleaguered
red men knew this was because they
were waiting for a larger force, or be-
cause plans were being made to set
fire to the barracks.
There was no remaining In the bar
racks If it was set on fire, Of course,
so when night came the Cheyennes
made a desperate attempt at escape.
They broke through the guarding lines
of soldiers and reached the open. But
they were tired and hungry; many Of
them wounded and others without
proper protection against the biting
weather. They were determined TO
reach the land of their fathers graves,
but human endurance would not per-
NIT them. When the pursuing soldiers
overlook them, they surrendered with

The northern Cheyennes we're taken
TO Fort Keogh near the present site
Of Miles City, where they were IN
charge of the United States army until
the government could decide what to
do with them.
AS it happened, the deperate flight
Of the Cheyennes from Oklahoma,
their stubborn resistance to settlement
Ia the Indian country, and their eff
forts to reach the land that had been
theirs, decided the government in their
favor. AS a home for them in the land
where were the graves Of their fathers,
The Tongue river reservation was set
aside in November, 1884. After having
been kicked around again for several
years. the northern Cheyennes were
settled on it. Thus at last they achieved
their deSire-a peaceful life in the
country that had been theirs and their
fathers.
