Face Restrictions
While the majority OF the resi-
dents in the area have shown an in
difference to the selection of their
community for the site OF the Medi-
cal Science Center, others look on
it with favor. providing those
affected can be relocated with ade-
quate housing. And this poses the
question of new community for
Negro residents.
One OF the principal objections
raised by one property owner CEN
tiers around the covenants and legal
restrictions that will confront them
should they be dislodged and forced
to seek other property.
Reuben Ray. president Of the
Paradise Distributing Agency, stated
that he was in favor OF the selection
because it would help develop what
is now a highly congested slum
area. And on the other hand. Jasper
Adams. owner Of Adams Standard
Service at Beaubien and Farms

ing out that it would disrupt well
established Negro business in the
area. and at the same time II would
be hard for these same business
men to obtain other suitable spots
At the same time the rank and
file Of those living outside the area
and not affected in any manner by
the selection, are looking on with
the same indifference OF many of
the residents within the area. The
only question most OF them raise
is that of adequate housing for
those who will be forced to seek
other living quarters.
According to one OF the property
owners. the meeting Thursday night
has been called to determine IL legal
steps should be instituted to stop
the condemnation Of the property
within the area. and also to select
a committee to consult with city
officials and urge them to select
another area for the center. The
meeting Is slated for 8 pm.

Wheat Limit Lifted, but War
: Crop Goals for Farm Remain

Wheat farms will be eligible for full
agricultural conservation wheat pay
ments and wheat loans even though
the allotment for the farm is over
seeded. but war crop goals for each
farm still remain in effect. Thomas
A. Wagner, chairman of the coun-
ty Triple-A committee, reminded
farmers this week.
Limitations on wheat are removed
providing the farmer meets at least
90 percent of the sum of the l943
acreage of war crops and essential
feed crops.
He appealed to farmers to fix
goals themselves. The county is still
short of some war crop goals
about 5000 acres of flax, 200 of
beans and 100 of potatoes. The COM
mittee and war board would much
prefer voluntary pledges from far
mers to meet these goals, he said,
rather than that they be set by
the boards.
Owners of hot wheat" under
bond, representing o~verseeded wheat,
may now sell it but first are re-
quired to secure a release from the
Triple-A committee so it may have
a record of the amount.
The new regulations on wheat al
so include the lifting of marketing
quotas for the remainder of the
1928 marketing year and for 1943

chairman in charge of county
sales, said the name, Esprit of

Elsa was not at home, but found
Reed Barton on her doorstep. He

flowers, which few men like to be
seen doing however much they may
esteem the intended recipient there

to see that his case was urgent.

Hmm, and another rustic of

Every time he goes out he kisses

all down the road. Edward, why
don't you do that?"

the news, II don't know her!"

laughed and brought the flowers
around into view, drew a fat green
pencil from his pocket, scrubbed
something upon the white paper and
snapped the flowers to the d. knob
with rubber band.
"She's the most exasperating per-
son I know, Barry" he said. But
what's she done to you?" For the
first time ne realized I had reason
for being there. The light was dim,
but unrulled the caricature and
presented it.
He took the caricature from me,
and placing it against the wall scrib-
bled on the edge: Dear Liar. Bar
ry is wild man about this. l think
it's rotten too-Reed." He chuckled,
proceeding to fasten it in the door
jamb. "Tell her when you see her,
Barry, that called to tell her good
bye. It's rather sudden, you know.
The Chief didn't let me know until
yesterday. I'm on my way this eve
ming. Cone on. I've got to go over
to my hangout now. There's not
much time left"

off on foot. for it was not far.

Chief says to CO."
"Mazatlan! Why, that's incredibly
removed from the Hollywood scene"
Eyes, l know"
''But what for?"
1.-THE Chief says I'm to report at
the Mazatlan office for permanent
work. Take charge of things down
there"
We swung on up the boulevard.
AS we passed the shop window, we
halted to gaze in at the caricatures
of Dwight and Chesebro, and again
farther up the boulevard at still 9TH
err caricatures. Near Highland the
sidewalk became impossible. We
endeavored to worm our way
through, for Reeds hotel was just
beyond the corner. The first intima-
ton that 1t was more than a mere
congestion of pedestrians came with
the sound of mans voice-a reedy,
husky voice-shouting
"Look at that! Look at that!"
We pressed our way into the
crowd and beheld at the center of
the throng hatless figure, red of
face and vociferous to the point of
apoplexy. SIS it me?" he demand
ed plaintively of the gaping crowd.
SIS it me?" He pointed at a shop
window wherein could make out a
group of caricatures, the origin of
which was quite apparent. I recog-
nized the fellow, minor comedian;
he was bit player who was cast
in an occasional picture.
