Government Cracks
Down On Cheating
Landlords In South

WASHINGTON --fANP)-- Land
lords and farm operators who have
beer charging bonus rent in an
effort TO share unjustly in the agri-
cultural conservation payments Of
their tenants and sharecroppers,
will have their government pay
ments withheld. the Agricultural
Adjustment Administration has an
nounced.
This action OF the AAA was the
result OF reports that certain land
lords have charged cash payment
for the same acreage on which a
share rent Is charged. In other
cases they have charged a payment
for each acre OF land not planted
10 cotton. These and similar prac-
tees are IAN attempt" TO deprive
tenants and sharecroppers Of pay
ments to which they are entitled
and Government payments to such
landlords may be withheld or,
where already made. may be recov-
cred"
This action of the department o.
agriculture will protect many Ne
gro farmers in the South.

We have mentioned darkness as
being such an important factor in
accidents Yes. we may be able TO
see the car all right. but can the
driver see us? A driver certainly
cannot miss an object IN the road
that he cannot see.
We have repeatedly stressed the
part OF our traffic ordinance re-
garding the responsibility OF the
pedestrian. who is required TO do
certain things TO protect himself
We have also explained that traf-
fc signal lights were installed at
great expense for the protection Of
pedestrians az well as to facilitate
the movement OF motor vehicles.
In spite OF all this. We pick up
the newspaper day after day and
read about some pedestrian who
was injured or killed by violating
one OF these rules of safety.
The pedestrian must accept his
part OF the responsibility and use
the streets In such manner as
to protect himself
