NEW YORK-Highly elated with
the splendid work of Messrs. Jul
ian d. Rainey, of Boston and c.
E. Powell, of New York, in the
last presidential campaign, Edw-
ard Flynn, National Democratic
Chairman, seassigned this winning
combination to conduct the fight
again this year. In making his
announcements, Mr.. Flynn declar-
ed, that the able Boston lawyer,
Mr.. Rainey and the astute busin-
fess executive, DIR. Powell of New
York, would be in full charge of
the campaign to be conducted a
mong Negroes. The territory as
signed to them covers fourteen
states with a Negro voting
strength better than 1000, 900.
DIR. Powell almost Immediately
went to work. Within 6 hours of
his appointment, he had lined up
his assistants and appointed them
to definite types of work. His
staff at the present consists of
three writer's, four stenographers,
two messengers and a telephone
operator who also is the reception
ist. He plans to add a rewrite
man and two or three research
workers to his staff later in the
campaign.
Judge Rainey, as he is some
times called BECAUSE of Ihis having
been a Boston Assistant Corpora
ton Counsel, plans to launch his
campaign immediately after the
Labor Day holiday. AT that time
he will name his complete staff,
which is to include a very promin-
emit and able woman assistant. His
headquarters will be at 331 Madi-
son ave.
Both Rainey and Powell were
highly enthusiastic and certain of
victory-the reelection of Franklin
Delano Roosevelt.

WHEAT is
KA'S CASH
CROP

Special to The Omaha Guide
Wheat is Ncbraska's largest
cash crop-and Nebraska raises
some of the finest wheat produced
in the world.
But other states have taken the
lead in advertising the quality of
their wheat. AS a result, wheat
from these states often commands
a better price on the market, even
though Nebraska wheat is super
Tor in quality.
The State is putting on a CAM
paign of advertising of wheat to
DO run in the milling and baking
magazines, reaching a total Hirs;d-
lation of Approximately $4,000
millers and makers in the nation
the largest buyers of wheat ard
wheat flour.
We believe this campaign will
improve the prices paid for Me-
braska wheat.

Among the several humanitar-
ian agencies supported wholly or
in part by the Omaha Community
Chest, none plays the role of Good
Samaritan more effectively than
Booth Memorial hospital, the Sal
walton Army Home for unmarried
mothers.
cat this time of the year.,
Brigadier Violet Williams, super
intendent of the hospital, told the
Community Chest members, "the
hospital usually has thirty babies
and as many as forty girl patients
who are placed through pastors,
social workers, doctors and friends
Although the hospital charges a
fee for those able to pay the cost
of care, this is insufficient to sup
port the home. The deficit is
made up by the Community Chest.
Two nurses and four employees
comprise the staff caring for these
others, who range from Is to "a
years old, and their infants.
The average stay of the moth
ers in the hospital is three and n
half to four months. Girls who
are physically able help with the
homework and are taught to sew
and do other useful things. They
also take care of their babies I'M
der supervision of a nurse.
Because most of them must be
brought out of a depressed mental
state, there is also recreation with
outdoor and indoor games, a radio
piano and many books.
"a large percentage of the girls
take their babies and support
them, but some of the infants
must be placed in child institu-
t%utions" Brigadier Williams said.
1--WE also have a few weddings
here and those babies RI given a
good chance for life in a normal
home with their parents. The gen

work possible is responsible for

If brother has a bicycle, why not give him a bicycle radio? A new battery model made especial Ns for bicycles is being put on the market. Very compact it fits on the handlebars, entirely out of the way. The battery fastens snugly underneath the frame.
 Does he go camping? Perhaps ne could use a pair of asbestos gloves made of flexible woven as- bestoS cloth with woolen under lining. These are handy for ham, ding red-hot pans or burning logs around the campfire, at the barbe- cue pit, or in the fireplace at home.
 Golfers will appreciate the new golfing rubbers, made to fit over steel spiked shoes.
 Water skiing, Americas latest sport craze, gives the snow skier 9 chance to use his skill for new thrills on the water. Because the sport calls for more skill and con- trol than aquaplaning, the addict will be interested ill recently designed ski which gives the rider exceptional control and yet im- mediate release if he fails.
 Tennis players will like new practice device which is expected to be available this Christmas. It will enable them to improve their strokes without having. to chase their balls or to wait until they can get a partner to practice with.

Be- cause of newspaper articles he had written describing conditions in Ja- pan and China, he too has been taken into custody and forced to spend 61 days in jail. His personal experiences there and elsewhere were very interesting and his en- tire talk proved very enlightening to his audience. At the close of the address questions were asked by members of the audience which were answered by the speaker.
 MT.

 Another idea for the fisherman is a live bait hook. There is short chain between the leader and the hook, which, when looped around the bait makes certain that it will be securely held.

It's based on some of the simpler moves of chess but is faster, easier and still very inter- esting to play.
