in giving man another chance?
THE SUPREME COURT has
not had too many liberal men
like Justice Black and the records
show that some of the reaction
aries of the past even upheld
slavery.I n any comparison, Mr..
Jackson will find that Mr.. Black
is far from the worst man to sit
on the Supreme Court bench. And
many of Blacks critics can't af-
ford to throw stones either.
THERE HAS BEEN quiet
reformation of the Supreme
Court which is the b@sis for many
clashes now. 1t was the Court
members of the past who upheld
servitude, allowed states to deny
the ballot, determinations to re-

chings. Mr.. Black has shown more
willingness TO OPPOSE these
evils than some of his FORE
MOST CRITICS.

THE MANNER in which many

could well deserve some strong
comment from Mr.. Jackson who
has repeatedly been abroad for
the purpose of netting out justice.

tainly is far more important than

days Of Jack Johnson, the men
were rough, tough and bad.
Opponents often cursed each
other over long battles Of 20
and so rounds or more. John
son, a colored fighter, took more
than his share of the gaff; more
than Louis or any modern col
ored boxer can boast Of in a
now more refined sport. John
son knew many Of his opponents
hated his skin and he developed
his own way of haunting them
quietly. Jack Johnson'S gold
toothed golden grin in which he
drove his opponents madly into
defeat is now world famous. 1t
was not a grin Of conceit but
it drove even some aryan edi-
tors mad too. Some. of the
trash written in those days about
johnson menacing race suprem-
acy is ample proof. But Jack
Johnson'S "Mona Lisa" smile
overcame all obstacles. It had
such tremendous affect tina.
the Louis management trained
Joe to always fight poker face
and it wasn't until a long time
that anyone knew Louis could
laugh.
Debut At Revere Beach
A few Boston managers like
to take credit for Johnson'S
start in boxing, but the honorS
go to a colored boxer, the fam
GUS Joe Walcott, who in 1896
was training for a bout at Re-
we're Beach. Walcott not only
hired Johnson, then only II
years old, for a spar-mate, but
also took the trouble to notify
Boston sportswriters that John
so nhad class and could make
the grade. But when the writ
ers got there Johnson had gone
Yet Walcott was one of Jacks
teachers who sent him on to
fame.
Johnson had his faults, COM
mon to all boxers of his time,
but much credit is due him for
paving the way for other box
ers, including Joe Louis. Many
colored we're prone to swallow
the propaganda directed against
their own champion, a man who
the great ring authority Nat
FleischRr in his book "Black
Dynamite" rates as the great
est heavyweight the world has
ever known. Perhaps Joe Louis
should share this title. It is
too bad the gentlemen never
sat down together, this Texas

troit Brown Bomber"

Miss Setoh is a pleasant, lively
fortnight sort and, just as we had
anticipated, she did not mind the
question in the least. The dialogue
went like this:
DO you write with an eye on
Hollywood"
Certainly not"
That would have been a quick
conversation had Miss Seton been
less charming lady. For a man
with a column to fill, it was agree
able of her to have gone on:
Actually, I didn't think Holly
wood would take The Turquoise
I just didn't think it would lend
itself to screen treatment, what
with that ending. OF course, it
turned out that I was wrong, as
why shouldn't I have been? I guess
I just was not thinking much about
.. 1t at all"
Another thing an interviewer
probably should have asked an
earlier popular author-the town
has been filled with them this past
WEEKS how it feels to get one of
those Hollywood checks.
Miss Seton minced not a single
word on that subject.
1T feels wonderful, naturally -
she said. "Of course, the money is
only yours for little while, but it
is good feeling while it is in your
control. Then, you just turn most
OF it over to. the Government. You
must remember this about Holly
wood checks to writers-the studios
are just trying to get rid of a lot
of money. They pass it on to the
writers, who, in turn, pass it on to
the Treasury"
Miss Seton is not bitter about
this. She is not bitter about any,
thing, not even liberties Hollywood
takes with her stories after buying
them. Pleasant, pretty and realistic
Is how she seems at luncheon.
