How Daily Press and Radio
Handled Attack Story
Editorial

Much friction for many years could be traced direct
y to stories in the daily newspapers which in of
nterraca crimes when Negroes suspects subordnated
the actual crime the of the pperator providing said
suspect was Negro.
Only Twin City paper played up the angle in the
brutal robbery attack Hennepn County early this week.
The STAR JOURNAL PIONEER PRESS and DISPATCH
Monday editions did not mention the racial identity of the
sought for the crime. Radio commentators all sta
tons omitted the of suspect
Only the MINNEAPOLIS TIMES casually mentioned
that the sought Negro. Wednesdays TRIBUNE
and PRESS announced arrest of suspect but did not the
word Negro The TRIBUNE carried photo of Goldman the
suspect.
BUT Wednesday evenings TIMES definitely used the
method often utilized by irresponsible newspapers to fan
feeling by what perhaps considered subtle method This
method has been used than since the TIMES fol-
lowing the lead of other local daes decided drop the racial
designation Negro in stories unless it had
value"
Example of Times Method
The first paragraph of the TIMES story Wednesday,
read:
Goldman &c. the Brooklyn Center
before convicted of fones of them criminal assault
White WOman-February %, 1929
It doesn't require much imagination to see from the
above that the TIMES editors determined to
follow the archaic practice of injecting the of alleged
criminals or known criminals into story providing the
cupr is Negro They may believe they being clever
but their type of presentation out of step with
progress and definitely unfair.

Historic Pilgrim
Baptist Church
Burns Mortgage
By C. T. r. NELSON

Mrs. L. W. Harris, widow of the
late DR.. Harris, who for fourteen
years was pastor of the Pilgrim
Baptist Church, struck the match
that set fire to the last of the local
mortgages on this historic 80 year
old st. Paul church last Sunday
afternoon, in an impressive and
touching service and ceremony. 1t
was due to the vision of her hus-
band and the untiring sacrifices of
many members of the Pilgrim
church that brought about the build
ing of the magnificent structure
that now houses this largest Negro
Baptist congregation in St. Paul.
The structure is located at the cor
ner of Grotto and West Central
Avenue.
The mortgage burning ceremony
was preceded by a forceful and
thought-provoking sermon, deliv-
cred by the present pastor of the
church, the Rev. Smith Edward
Ware, who came here little more
than two years ago from a success
full pastorate in Pennsylvania to
take up where DR.. Harris had left
off and lead this congregation to
the place it occupies today in the
religious circles of the Twin Cities.
Rev. Ware was quite outspoken in
this sermon, Father, the Hour Is
Come" as he declared that church
methods must be reconstructed to
meet the needs of this new day in
which we live-a day of specializa-
ton E. the church will be judged
not by its creed but by it's deeds
in the future" In speaking about
the wave of Juvenile delinquency,
Rev. Ware said that the phrase
Juvenile delinquency is a misnomer
e. it is adult delinquency.
In the mortgage burning cere-
mony S. E. Hall, who was the chair
man of the finance committee when
Pilgrim church was being built,
passed the mortgage to Ed Moore,
the present chairman of the Board
of Trustees. Mr.. Hall reminded the
audience that he and Mr.. M. A.
Boiling were the only trustees who
started out with the new Pilgrim
building, now living.
The Thanksgiving prayer for the
occasion was given by Rev. C. B.
Wheeler, pastor of Mt. Olivet Bap-
fist church. 1t was a moving and
sincere utterance. After the mort
gage had been burned the great
hymn, "The Church's One Founda-
tion," was played by Mrs. S. E.
Hall at the pipe organ, Mrs. S. E.
Ware at the grand piano and Miss
Arlee Harris at the upright piano.
1t was fitting climax to a great
ceremony. Music for the service
was furnished by both the senior
and gospel choirs.
Rev. Ware then launched the new
annex fund by giving five dollars
and asking that 10 other persons
give five dollars each so that a
hundred dollar bond could be pur-
chased in the name of the annex
fund. Sixty-fve dollars cash was
raised and more than $1OO pledged.
Pilgrim is preparing for the new
day in the post war world.
Pilgrim Baptist Church News:
Rev. s. E. Ware spoke last Sun
day morning on "The Restless Re-
igion." After his sermon, Rev.
Ware rendered a medley of vocal
solos, 'The Last Mile of the WAY"

Walter White
Says Communists
After Negroes

New York.-lncreaSed efforts by
Communists to spread their doc
trines among Negroes in this coun-
try were reported Dec. 26 by Wal
ter White, secretary of the Nation
al Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People, who point
ed to the George Washington Car
yer School in Harlem and to similar
institutions in Chicago and Los An
geles as examples of how left-wing
elements were attempting to shape
Negro opinion.
Recently six directors of the Car
yer School, organized to provide
educational facilities for adult Har-
lem residents, resigned because
they charged the board was under
Communist control.
Mr.. White attributed these
moves by the Communists to the
growing Importance of the Negro
in politics, and explained that it ap-
parently was new approach to the
handling of the Negro problem.
''They are making an unashamed
appeal to the Negro VOTE" he as
serted. "They are attempting in
these schools to present their doc
trines, which the Negroes appraise
the same as they do the doctrines of
the other political parties"
Mr.. White said he did not know
the extent of communistic DONNA
ton in the schools, but added that
there certainly was evidence of
communist influence.
This situation has been brought
about, Mr.. White contended, be-
cause the Democrats and Repubi-
cans have been using the Negro as
a political football"
"And it should serve as a warn
ing to these two political parties"
he added.
Meanwhile, DR.. E. George Payne,
dean of New York University
School of Education and unofficial
leader of the six educators and So
cial workers who resigned on Fri
day, from the Carver School, urged
for the good of the people of Har-
lem that the schools board of di-
rectors act at once to reorganize
the institution.
81 don't advocate this because I
accuse the present board of being
made up of Communists" he said,
"but because the people of Harlem
believe it to be so. Unless the board
does reorganize itself it will find it
impossible to carry on"
At the school, which held the last
session of the current semester last
night, Gwendolyn Bennett, its di-
rector, agreed that it should repre-
sent the community in all aspects.
While not conceding that the school
at present was under Communist
influence, she said she hoped a nom
partisan institution could be de-
veloped.
She said that there was no dan
ger of the schools being discon-
tinued because all the students
were very enthusiastic about the
courses they were taking. Glasses
are scheduled to reopen in the mid
die of January.
DR.. Max Yergan, chairman of the
board, said that an official state
ment on the controversy would be
made by the board following
meeting Thursday evening at the
