misses to be great experimental
year for the Negro All Club
boys of this county. The boys
realize that in the past years
they have not received the pro-
per yield of corn per acre that
they should have received and
now that they have received in
formation through All Clubs
about Hybrid corn they have been
moved with greater interest to
test this corn along with open
pollinated corn to compare the
difference in the two types of
corn The hybrid corn that the
boys have planted was secured
by the Negro County Agt., Clyde
w. Thompson. The following
varieties of hybrid corn used in
this result demonstration are.
Funks GAS, Junks G702, Mis-
souri, No. 148 and Missouri No.
8. The communities that are in
this Hybrid Corn Contest are.
Pickens, Dumas, Omega, HALEY,
Rankins, Arkansas City, Boggie,
West Jefferson, Rohwer, Wolfe

With the interest and enthusiasm
shown on the part of the All

will prove very successful.

all citizens are equal before the

Dear Friend Bates,
Since establishing this little
hardware business at 18th and
Chester Streets, it has been nv
pleasure to give your paper ad-
vertising. l have read your paper
each week and have noted it,
contents.
During this period, there have
been two outstanding deaths in
the Negro fraternity, these two
men are those whom l have
known a good many years.
First, was Edward Allen, I
knew him personally as well as
his father and he was a good
friend of mine. l was very sorry
to note his death but extremely
glad to know Of his achievements.
He should be signally honored.
Next comes my friend, Edward
S. Hubble. This man was born
and reared in Newport, Jackson
County, Arkansas at Second and
Elm Streets, the son of the late
Walter S. Hubble. I knew his
grandmother as we'll as his faith
err. His father established a
restaurant and also funeral
parlor and prospered. Later as
well as can remember, he NOV
ed to Little Rock with his family.
The last contact had with
Edward was several years ago,
he showed me through his fun
eral home and the new cars he
had bought, and l must say that
he had a magnificent place. It
is worthy Of anything in a city
of the size of Little Rock or
larger. In his death, I have lost
friend.
The sooner that people can for
get all racial, political and reli-
gious prejudices, the better off
all of us will be. No matter what
mans color, creed or nation
atty is, he can still be a gentle
man. We should forget intoler-
ance. We should at all times be
tolerant and remember that the
other fellow has his views as
well as we do. ...
Yours very truly,
E. D. Neal.

to establish citizenship of the
Negro, to protect from hostile
Legislation of the States the privi-
leges and immunities of citizens
of the United States, as distin-
guished from those of citizens of
the States. The object of the
amendment was undoubtedly to
enforce the absolute equality Of
the two races before the law, but
in the nature Of things, it could
not have been intended to abolish
the distinctions based upon color,
or to enforce social, as distin-
guished from political equality, or
commingling of the two races
upon terms unsatisfactory to
either. Laws permitting, or even
requiring their separation in
places where they are liable to
be brought into contact do not
necessarily imply the inferiority
OF either race to the other, and

universally, recognized as with
In the competency of the state
legislatures in the exercise Of
their police power. The most COM
mon instance of this is connected
with the establishment of separate
schools for white and colored
children, which has been held to
be a valid exercise of legislative
power even by courts of States
where the political rights of the
colored race have been longest
and most earnestly enforced.
In Plesy v. Ferguson, 1853 U. S.
537, 543, The Court said "a statute
which implies merely legal dis
tinction between the white and
colored races. a distinction
which is founded in the color of
the two races, and which must
always exist so long as white
men are distinguished from the
other race by color. has no
tendency to destroy the legal
equality of the two races. or re-
establish a state of involuntary
servitude." p. $50, "as to whether
the statute is reasonable regula-
ton, there must necessarily be
a large discretion on the part of
the legislature. In determining
the question reasonableness, it
is at liberty to act with reference
to the established usages, GUS
toms, and traditions of the peo-
pie, and with a view to their
comfort, and the preservation of
peace and good order. Gagged by
this standard, we cannot say that
a law which authorizes or even
requires the separation of the
two races in public conveyances
is unreasonable, or more obnox-
ious to the Fourteenth Amend
ment than the Acts of Congress
requiring separate schools for
colored children in the District
of Columbia, the eonstitutionality
OF which does not seem to have
been questioned, or correspond
