IMPORTANT NOTICE
TO PRESIDENTS

To all presidents who had deceased
members to be paid off in the June
Boards: l wish to say that some of
the presidents are still renewing
members up, paying $1.35 for. the
June Boards. We had notified you
that we had enough to bring the
claims up to $4,000 and now we
have more than that. Therefore we
have decided to wait until the Con-
vention meets at which time we will
no doubt have more.
This will save us in sending out so
many checks. The balance of the
June Boards Death Claims to be paid
in the Convention. The amount is
going higher and higher. We are
proud of this.

BETTER TREATMENT FOR
NEGRO SCHOOLS

Editor, Daily News: When I read
an editorial in your Daily News with
as much in it as the one in the June
4th issue on Better Negro Schools
cannot refrain from writing you and
saying amen. In the first place it
takes courage to advocate anything
that one knows is very, very touchy
and unpopular. Negro education is
not 80 unpopular with the powers who
control educational policies in Missis-
sippi, but it is something they are
very anxious to have outsiders leave
alone, say very little about and in
vestigate not at all.
am at loss to understand how
the leaders in education in this state
justify themselves in the extremely
unfair treatment negroes are given.
We expect so much of negroes and in
return give them nothing, but actual
ly take from them what rightfully
belongs to them and apply it to the
educational funds for the white child
rem.
Newton county is an average hill
county. The population of whites
and negroes about equal. Many ne
groes own their farms. They pay
taxes on their lands and properties.
They pay to support Newton County's
Junior College. The school facilities
in Decatur, county site of Newton
county, that is, the college buildings
and Decatur's grammar school build
ing must aggregate an expenditure
of fully S250,0O0. The school build
ing for negro children Just outside
Decatur can be duplicated at present
prices of building material for $500.
Yet every negro taxpayer in this
county contributes to the support of

| often wonder jus. how long it
will be before we assemble a legisla-
tive body of men supported by q
governor with sense of justice to-
wards the negroes that will try to
improve the schooling advantages for
our negroes. We expect them to run
our tractors and keep them in opera
ton. We expect them to know how
to cultivate a growing crop. In fact,
we expect them to know about as
much as we know and on a dollar q
day wage.
| think the measure of any man,
especially legislator or governor, is
his sense Of fairness to every citizen
of the state. The state could not in
vest its money in a safer and better
paying proposition than to give the
laboring class of the state chance
to learn how to become efficient work
ers on farms, in factories, on the rail
roads and many other places.
1t certainly is encouraging to have
men like Mr. H. V. Watkins of Jack
son express themselves fearlessly and
publicly favoring an agricultural and
vocational school for Kinds county.
Should Kinds take the lead in such a
fine move it might encourage other
counties to make a start in the same
way Certainly that is the kind of
school needed, absolutely essential to
improve the usefulness of the negroes
abilities, aptitudes and potential en-
ergies.
It is deDlorable that the states ed
ucational leaders are either afraid to
equip ignorant laborers for a higher
class of work, afraid to give them the
opportunities they deserve, or they
selfishly refuse to give them what
belongs to them. We quies-
cent citizens elect them to represent

HosPITAL SERVICE

The past IL months shows q
sharp increase in hospital demand.
Month by month the need Of an
institution to serve the Npsilanti
trading territory has appeared to
increase and those who have stu
died the problem are convinced
that the 50 bed hospital proposed
will be none TOO large In fact they
believe it will be filed as soon
as il is completed.
During the past year the number
OF days OF hospital service has
risen from 1856 10 1882. Major
operations increased from 22S 10
2S2. minor operations from 247 TO
$40 and accident cases from 1903
TO 207.
me Gift OF the federal govern
ment is made as recognition OF
the great possibility which the
City faces in the war need. The
Government does not desire 10
manage or direct the hospital. They
have confidence in the municipality.
As people require municipal SER
vices caring for water and santa
tion as well as police and FIRE pro-
lection. so their hospital needs must
be cared for. The offer OF aid is
recognition that the Government
has confidence in the ability of the
people 10 meet this need.
The election TO authorize $4,000
in bonds is set for May 25 when
property owners living within the
city limits will be able TO express
their approval of the project. On
that day the degree of enterprise
and foresightedness prevailing in
Ypsilsnti will be proven. 1t will
be a day for expression OF judy
ment. test OF democracy for de-
mocracy is dependent upon the
vision and foresight and judgment
OF the people.
In formulating plans at this Tina
there are puzzling uncertainties.
We have no way OF knowing just
what the demands are 10 be for hos
pitalization in Ypsilant. We do
know that they are going to be
greater than ever before and that
provision of some kind should be
made 10 meet them. On the hos
pital project we have the recon-
mendation OF city physicians who
have studied the situation. We
have the offer OF government aid.
which indicates the importance Of
our location in national affairs.
We have a great bomber plant at
our door and huge housing projects
TO provide for thousands Of new
families.
From these and other similar
facts now in evidence ve can be
sure that a new hospital is needed.
II this need is met with a generous
vote there is possibility OF further
outside aid in the matter OF main
tensnce. This is not a pledge, nor
even an argument in favor OF vot-
ing for the hospital II is just 4
possibility which MIGHT develop
into a reality But regardless OF
that possibility there remains the
obligation Of Ypsilsnti residents 10
carefully weigh the future as best
We can. to picture as accurately as
possible the police and hre and
school and church and most particu.
lsrly just now the hospital neeS :
Of the city and to meet these need Is
as adequately as possible.
