Man Can Remove His Chains
Says White Unemployed
Worker NAACP Contributor

NEW YORK.-"Thc chains of
human bondage were made by
neither God nor nature but by
man himself, and by man they
can be removed"
Thiswas the moving sentiment
contained in a letter to the
National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
this week, accompanying five dol
lars for membership renewal.
The letter was from an unem-
ployed white member of the
Association, living in New York.
81 am out of work, at the
present time, the letter said,
80 that money is certainly not
plentiful with me. But ! never
think Of my dear colored bre-
thern without the feeling that
their need is so much greater
than mine. / have never spent
any money in the world that
gives me so much pleasure as
that which | am sending you.
The chains or human bondage
were made neither by God nor
by nature, but by man himself,
and by man they can be re-
moved. Let us perverse in the
righteousness of our cause"

Auto Tax Fund Diversion Goes
To All Time High In 1889

Although dozen states in
1889 reduced diversions of auto

purposes, higher diversions in
a few states, rotably New York,
pushed up the total diversions
in the United States to the rec
ord all time high Of $181, $4,000
for the year, an increase Of

On Way To New Record
Mrs. Willkie Is Glad To Be
A Private Citizen Once More

NEW YORK.-Delighted that
she is to continue in her private
job as the wife of Wendell l..
Willkie rather than in the pub
lie role of presidential spouse,
Mrs. Willkie started back on her
happy trek back to normally
Tuesday. -.
Her gay good humor still intact
and her small, stubborn chin
still high, she chuckled and
said: Nov the Wilkes are a.
mong the unemployed. We may
yet land on WPA and if we do
have to go on relief, it will be
Mr.. Roosevelt who will have to
take care of us!"
She said her husband had
made no plans to return to
private industry although she
thought there were two or three
Kings In he air.
Even bright and cary Wednes-
day morning, after onl va few
hours of sleep, Mrs. Willkie, de-
spite her pallor managed to look
much fresher and rested than
her husband. She wore simple
black wool coat with a small
mink collar over plain shirt
waist dress of black crepe with
row of rhinestone buttons on
the bodice. A little elephant,
outlined in rhinestones, glitter
ed bravely on her left shoulder.
Before she left the Commo-
dore late this afternoon to re-
turn to the peaceful and private
life of the Willkie apartment on
upper Fifth Avenue, a reporter
asked her what do you intend
to do, Mrs. Willkie?"
Just what I have always
done" she answered promptly.
Il am going to disappear from
the public eye and become
private citizen again"

Commenting on Sthes increased
total diversions, Edwin F. Pat
rick, secretary of the West Vir-
ginia Petroleum Association,
points out that, despite the all
time record high for 1889, pro-
gress against diversion is being
made over a wide front. Eight
states have adopted constitu-
tional amendments to guarantee
that all automotie tax funds
shall be used exclusively for
highway purposes, At the COM
ing elections on November 5th
the people Of three additional
states will vote upor amend
ments to end diversion. In two
states the legislatures have
initiated steps for the submis-
sion of amendments against di-
version to the people for ratif-
cation. Thus, says tn G commit
tee, the question Of diversion
has reached the action stage in
more than onc-quarter of the As
states. ....
Highway ushr groups in
West Virginia are firm believers
, in the axiom that it is wise tC

is stolen" Patrick continued
Whereas automotive tax funds
in this state have always been
used exclusil ly for road pur.
poses, there is no guarantee
that such proper application OF
the funds VIII continue in the

Washington's generosity in re-
spending to the $l0-per- seat appeal
for the Gone With the Wind" con-
tribution to Finnish aid is greater
than Finnish Relief Fund officials
had expected, they confessed today.
A figure of $40 was set in 2,50o
letters sent to leaders in the Capt.
tails business, social and civic life
in order to find a price level. But
the level they found is considerable
higher than $40. They could have
asked much more and got 1t. The
picture will be seen at the Palace
Theater January q.
Please reserve four tickets. In
closed is $1OO," reads one letter
Another letter sent $25 for two
tickets and another $75 for four.
Many contributions over $40 have
brought the average to a substan-
tial figure over the minimum.
Some to Sell Under $40.
However, despite the response, a
block will be held for sale under
$40, oficials said, and the price will
be announced Monday.
One person wrote in for two seats
that he planned to rattle off, thus
probably doubling the original price
of $40. A social group asked for a
pair to go at an auction.
The theater was bought out for
the evening of January q and given

Finn Geophysicist Writes
Of Bombing of University
Dr.. Heiskonen, Who Attended Meeting
Here, Describes Rod for Maj. Bowie ::

During this raid they shot also with
machine rifles children and women.
Through these raids they have
killed, in all, nearly 100 people, no
one of them soldiers.
We have shot down Is Russian
Dombers. One fell in Runkkinieml,
near Helsinki, about 800 m. from me
and from Mrs. Heiskanen. In the
last days they have not undertaken
much raids. In our day of inde-
pendency, the Russians made the
first-ti use of a poison gas. They
seem to be more devils than men.
And what have we to think about a
country of 1S0,000,000 inhabitants
which will use poison gas in war
against nation of 100000, a
nation which will do nothing but
to work in peace and to develop its
national culture.
Firms Fight Like Lions.
We shall see if the European pow
ers let the Russians destroy whole
Finland. Till now the Russians
have not been able to do much, but
alone we can not fight many years,
though our soldiers and officers are
fighting as lions, though every one
of them is a hero.
The Isostatic Institute and my
home are until further undestroyed,
but under these circumstances 1t Is
not easy to work scientifically.
You have given me your photo

photographs Hayford, Garner and
so on) for framing in one shop in
