Housing Picture Dark
But Future Darker

Current trends in housing legisla-
tion should be carefully watched by
colored citizens A case in point can
be found in Senate Bill 1926, intro
duced by Sens. McCarran of
Nevada, Capper of Kansas and Bur-
ton of Ohio, now on the United
States Supreme court, and recently
passed by the senate and referred
to the house. The bill does not pre-
vent racial real estate covenants
which so often victimized colored
property owners. This latter bill
which is applicable only to the Dis
trict of Columbia does not make pro-
visions for the inclusion of the larg-
est minority group upon the pro-
posed board of commissioners.
AS matters stand now it seems
clearly the best policy not to buy
homes at the preesnt time. Home
purchase is a vital business trans
action for most people, especially
colored people. 1t would be better to
wait awhile. High priced houses
bought today, in few years, will be
sold at a much lower price when
there are more and better homes on
the market. 1t would be the part of
good judgment to buy more govern
ment bonds, to hold and not sell
these bonds. When the right time
comes to purchase home, the accu-
mulated savings will permit the
payment of a large initial amount
and the assumption of title with a
smaller indebtedness and smaller
current interest payments There

Woman Files SuitFor$25, 600 Damages
BRUTALITY BRINGS
SUIT AGAINST
5EAB0ARD RAILWAY

NEW YORK, Nov. 20 (ANP).-
Attorneys acting at the request of
the international Labor Defense
have filed suit for $4,000 damages
against the receivers for the Sea-
board Air Line railway for compile
ity in beating up of a Negro woman
passenger and her infant son, it
was announced.
Mrs. Nina Beltran of New York
and her five-year-old child were the
victims of the assault, which oc-
Cured near Hamlet, N. c., on Aug.
7.
Mrs. Beltran was travelling to
Columbia, S. c., with her child. Be-
cause the jim crow car was full, she
and a number of other Negro pas
sengers sat in the next car. The con-
ductor repeatedly ordered her and
others to move into the Jim crow
car. Because there were no seats
for her or her child, Mrs. Beltran
returned to the other car.
At Hamlet, N. c., the conductor
called local policeman, who, at the
conductors request, struck Mrs.
Beltran and tried to force the five
year-old boy to carry a heavy suit
case into the Jim crow car. When
the child could not lift the bag, the
policeman, encouraged by the con-
ductor, struck him and knocked him
to the floor.
Mother and son were finally
physically pushed into the jim crow
coach, where they stood the rest of
the way to Columbia, S. C.
At Columbia, Mrs. Beltran was Sc

who, realizing the responsibility OF
the railroad for her serious condi-
ton, arranged for her hospitaliza-
tion for nearly two weeks at rail
road expense. Mrs. Beltran, who
lives in the Bronx, is still under
medical care because of the injuries
she received at that time.
Samuel Shapiro, Of Neuberger

suit on behalf of Mrs. Beltran.

men and who managed me was Dan
Hickey = an instructor and brain
guy of exactly the same pattern as
Blackburn, although Dan was
white man. Both of them were thor
oughly scientific - experts in the
Peter Jackson style of fighting.
81 never would have become
good fighter without instruction
and constant advice from Hickey;
and doubt that Louis would have
developed into champion without
the help of Blackburn, who in his
day was perhaps the greatest all
around fighter in ring history.
Louis Improved
"As l recall, Louis had return
bouts with seven opponents-Lee
Ramage, Bob Pastor, Matte Brown,
Max Schmeling, Arturo Godoy, Abe
Simon and Buddy Baer. His re-
markable improvement the second
time out against each of these was
due largely to Blackburn's shrewd
mind and his knowledge Of ring
craft, in my opinion. Not that I'm
undertaking the champions intelli-
gence."
Blackburn died April "a, 1912. He
was seriously i'll when Louis made
his last title defense on March 27
of that year in a return bout with
big Abe Simon. Ancient Jack, with
the razor-tatting on his brown
cheek, wasn't able to be in Joe's
corner that night, but Louis had
the benefit of his telephoned advice
while training.
Berlenbach continued, eff Black
burn were alive today, he would be
tremendous help in getting Louis
ready for his second meeting with
Comm sharpening him up after
four years absence from the ring.
He knew Louis like a book, and he
knew Conn like book after watch
ing Billy in their first fight. More
| over, he was just like a father to
Louis. He and Joe were the closest
| of pals. Nanny Seamon, Joe's new
trainer is one of the best in the
country. He will do a good job in
conditioning Joe, because he's a
thorough, earnest worker. But
neither Seamon, nor any other train
er could replace Blackburn = be-
cause there was only one Blackburn.
And Louis certainly will miss him
as he tries, at 80, to defend the
crown against younger and faster

He said he wasn't picking any

tion is deplorable is apparent to any
observer. Present prospects, how
ever, paint darker picture for the
future. By 1866, there should be
built 12,600,000; as follows, 4,100,-
900 for increase in families and mi
grafton from farms; ], 100000 for re-
turning soldiers; 100000 for people
now doubled up in present buildings,
100000 to establish a five percent
vacancy reserve; 100000 to replace
homes destroyed by fire, storm and
flood, and 100000 to replace old
houses that should be torn down.
This means that at least one and
one-quarter million homes must be
built each year during the next 10
years. So far the building record has
never been as much as one million
homes built during even the most
prosperous years.
The war which stopped building
is over. Would-be home owners
have an unusually large amount of
cash earned by doing war work.
There is a great temptation now to
/open up the flood gates of pent-up
demand and inundate the country
with an avalanche of inflated and
speculated building. In fact, on Mon
day, Oct. Is, War Production board
Order No. L-41 by which building
materials were rationed, was re-
scinded by War Mobilization and
Reconversion Director John W..
Snyder.
During September Price Admin
strator Chester Bowles warned
that, "few returning veterans have
been able to find homes where cur
rent prices could meet the test. of
reasonable normal value required
by the CT Bill of Rights" Agitation
is now going on in Washington to
secure the passage of a law which
will place a ceiling on the price of
all homes both old and new so as to
avoid initiation. A powerful real
estate lobby is exerting it's influ-
ence on congress to remove most
controls from the building industry.
If this effort succeeds, it will be a
sad day for the little fellow who
buys or wishes to buy home.
The disastrous crash of 1929 is
still in the memory of many former
business men or home owners who
suffered losses. Previous to this
there had been mounting prosperity
for several years. Present drift of
the country seems to be in the di-
rection of another real estate "boom
and bust" similar to that Of 1929,
unless rare craftsmanship asserts
itself in Washington, backed by an
avalanche of letters and kilograms
of protests from voters directed to
representatives in congress.
Congress is, however, making a
serious effort to deal constructively
with the housing problem. Senate
Bill 1912 introduced by Sens. Ell
lender of Louisiana and Wagner of
New York is now before the senate.
In attempts to give private enter
prise and opportunity to handle the
national housing problem, with GER
tain government assistance. This is
as it should be, provided private en-
terprise can put the job over.
