EVERY HOME is BUILT
AROUND ITS windows
Windows Determine Wall Space

Second, the arrangement of your
rooms, the arrangement of your
furniture, is all done around the
windows. Available wall space is
largely determined by windows. On
the outside the architectural har-
mony is largely determined by the
placing or grouping of windows.
Thus you see how important
windows are just from appearance
alone. But appearance, important
as it is, is only half of the story.
Here are some of the other
things that good window should
do:
Keep cold air out. Keep warm
air in. Keep cool air in. Keep hot
air out. Keep insects out. Keep
dirt and dust out. Work freely un-
der all conditions without rafting
Provide ventilation when open. Be
watertight when closed. Let light
in. Give clear vision out. Add
beauty to your home. Harmonic
with your style of architecture.
No other architectural feature in
house must perform SO many
functions.

apologies To
Judge Hugo
Black"
(by William Pickens)

According to the news of today,
President Roosevelt asks US news
papermen to Apologize to Judge
Hugo Black.
That is an unusually bad choice
of word, for one SO astute as Roose
welt. If he had said praise"
Congratulate, it would be
sible statement, but til a.,.
needs 10 apology for fig
gainst having a KuKluxer to come
on to its court of last resort. Judge
Black himself owes the only apollo
gy that is due. He should apollo
gize to the country-first for hav-
ing ever been a Kukluxer, second
for being so false as to permit dem
ial of that fact in order to sneak
into the peoples court, third, for
his very unbecoming and unchival-
rous conduct in running and dodg-
ing disgracefully, before he finally
yielded and admitted what was al
ready proven) that he had been a
member of the uncivilizable organ
ization.
He is the party to offer apolog-
les. We are those to congratulate
him on his present conduct, in spite
of his very shady past. Either he
was once a KuKluxer at heart or he
was embarrassing the ignorant
Klansmen. In either case, no a.
pology is due him. We cannot a
pologize. for calling an outlaw an
outlaw; and WI cannot apologize to
one who pretends to be an outlaw
in order to enjoy their lawless sup
port.
No! Mr.. Roosevelt, we owe no
apologies to Black, or to you, for
our attitude in the matter when you
against warning, appointed him to
the Supreme Court. If he has
changed, perhaps the cutlery made
against him helped to change him.
If he has not changed, then he was
a hypocrite when he was on the
Klan records. We do not apolog-
ize to a sinner when he repents or
verse his course. If he changed
we praise and congratulate him.
Even if he was once a hypocrite
and has now, with a $4,000 a year
security, decided to stop all hypo-
crisy, we still congratulate him, at
least on his good fortune.
Long before Black joined the
Court, the Court had decided that
torture of a witness invalidates the
decision of an American court "a
gainst that witness. Now we are
happy to see that the court sticks
to its own preeedents, and we con-
graduate Hugo Black on having
the honor of voting with that maj
GRITTY and reading the decision.

REMARKS OF HON. ARTHUR w. MITCHELL IN
THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr.. Mitchell. Mr.. Speaker, ladies and gent

Mr.. Mitchell. Mr.. Speaker, ladies and gentle
men of the House, hardly a day passes that some per-
son in high authority, either in this House or in offic-
ial capacity elsewhere, does not request of me inform
alton of some kind with reference to tn achievement
of the American Negro. Perhaps there is less actu-
ally known about the historical background of Amer
ica's largest minority group-theN egro-than about
any other minority group in this country. One
searches our textbooks and literary records in vain
for the real facts of Negro achievement, even in AM
erica. Little or no real facts concerning the Negro
prior to the introduction of slavery in the American
Colonies can be found in our books and periodicals
used in our schools and colleges.
