From the close of the First
World War to the year Of the
stock market crash Of 1929,
at least twenty-one Negro
newspapers were started. The
long, never-ending depression
Of the thirties witnessed the
further addition of over
tllirty-two> newspapers; the
doubling. and, in some cases,
trebling of total circulation
the rapid increase in advertis-
ing lineage; the installation
Of new and expensive equip
ment; and even the dispatch
ing of correspondents to
Europe by two papers. This
period also witnessed the de-
volopment Of chain neWspa-
pers, the Afro-American
chain leading others in circu-
lation, closely followed by:
The Pittsburgh Courier, the
Atlanta Daily World and its
afiilissfes, the Houston Inform
er and it's affiliates and
the Chica a g o Defender. A
new daily, the Atlanta Daily
World, was started on March
II. 1888. by w. A. Scott, and

She pointed out how. unlike many
public men today. he wrote his

when ornate and flcrid style was
universal, his sentences and vocabu-

true greatness. Miss CaSady took
her listeners through the Lincoln

of 1860.
She illustrated Lincoln's disarming
frankness by reading his classic letter
to General Hooker. in which he
told the officer both of his strong
points and weaknesses. And last.
