BY REV. R. c. WELLS

Subject-The Tragedy of Excuses
This parable though spoken
hundreds of years ago, did not die
with age but has grown to matur-
ity down across the years.
The invitation extended in the
parable is to a great feast and all
is ready. But according to the word
"they all with one consent began
to make excuses.
The first one. said, Il have
bought piece of land, and I must
60 and see il"
How foolish it is for man to
make an investment in land he has
never seen. This man was not so
much interested in his purchase, as
he was in finding an excuse for not
accepting the great invitation.
The messenger did not tarry but
passed on leavingI the poor man to
live with his troubled conscious.
The second ore said, Il have
bought five yoke of oxen and l
must go to prove them"
It is very fitting and proper that
we should take care of our person
al affairs. But when these become
a hinderance to oGr souls salvation
and the welfare of others, we have
violated a code of laws that can
only produce distress and final
failure. 1t would have been well
if this man had given more thought
to the future and less to the pres
ent.
Here at his door was the mes
senger with a kindly invitation,
but he had come to a home where
all were too busy to accept it.
The man had sold out his priv
ileges of better things for five yoke
of oxen.
The third one said, 81 have
married a wife and l cannot come" ."
How trivial an excuse some men
will offer for their own failures.
Evidently this man was not aware
of the fact that the happiness of
his own home, depended upon his
acceptance of the great invitation.
Many a family unit today has
felt the crushing blow of refusal.
Turning aside this friendly offer
of divine help, has sent many a
happy marriage crashing down on
the rocks of despair and woe.
Much has been left unwritten
and unsaid about the future of
these three men. But believe |
can safely draw this conclusion. If
eternity could onlv speak, and the
voice of these men could be heard
today, their appeal to us would be,
when the messenger comes to your
heart with the great invitation,
don't make excuses, let Him come

DAMAGE CAUSED
 10 SMALL BOAT
 HARB0R BY ICE

With ice clog ing the small boat harbor, and floats Four and Five frozen in solidly. Mayor Waino Hendrickson today reported that the Master float has suffered dam age during the unprecedented freeze-up.
 On the rising tides, ice has lifted the billings along the inner float, and broken many of the capping timbers. The billings are old, and were to have been replaced last fall. The work was not completed, however, before the returning fish ing fleet filled the boat harbor so full of craft that the pile driver could not work.
 The City has kept a continuous patrol on the float for the past few dys, to guard against fire. The patrol also worked to keep the ice off billings which were in danger of being lifted up by the ice and left to fall on boats.
 Boat owners were warned today by the Mayor to keep careful watch on their craft in the harbor with the break in the cold weather which was forecast today. It is feared that many of the boats which have been frozen in may lose their caulking and hegin to take water. The City patrol will not be respon- sible for the sinking of any boats which have been left unattended by the owners.

FEPC TO GET THUMBS-DOWN
TREATMENT
May Pass Anti-Poll Tax Bill

Washington Especially = Con-.
gressmon Joe Martin, speaker of
the Republican dominated House
of Representatives, just before the
organization of the 80th Congress,
here last week, according to re-
ports in private caucus, told top
Negro Republican Leaders not to
expect passage of a fair employ
ment practice Bill at this session
of the Congress.
According to the stories told,
Martin was approached by Negro
leaders for the COP camp and
asked whether the new bill, sche-
duled for introduction to congress
would stand chance; that spon-
sors of the act were planning
determined drive to put 1t over.
Martin is said to have given an
opinion that it would receive the
'thumbs-down" treatment.
One prominent Republican same
up with the argument that COPS
1914 platform had pledged sup
port to the measure, whereupon
the eaker-designate retorted:
"That FEPC plank was a bid
for the Negro vote, and they did
not accept the bid. Thief went out
and voted for Roosevelt.
"I'll be frank with you," he con-
tinued. eve are not going to pass
the F'EPC bill, but it has nothing
to do with the Negro vote. We
are supported mainly by New En-
gland and midwest industriallsts
who would stop their contributions
if we passed "a law that would
compel them to stop religious as
we'll as racial discrimination In
employment. Pm not saying that
I agree with them, but that is the
situation we face, so we may as
well be realistic. We intend to
do a lot for the Negroes, but we
can't afford to pass the FEPC
bill"
However, federal anti-poll-tax
law would stand a better chance,
he Thought, but action on this
measure would not come up early
in the session.
eve have a number of MAYER
icks in Our party who may not go
along with us on needed labor
legislation, so we may need some
votes from the other side until
this issue is taken care of. After

Nat. NegroCouncil
Urges Expulsion
OF Senators

Chicago, Jan. 5-The expulsion
of Senators Ellender, Democrat, OF
South Carolina, and Thomas, DEM
ocrat, of Oklahoma, was urged by
the National Negro Council for
supporting Senator Bilbo, Demo
crat, of Mississippi, in his fight
for a Senate seat.
Council Director Edgar u.
Brown said the action was taken
at a special meeting attended by
800 delegates. The council claims
a membership of 100000.
Brown said the council, which
also has urged Bilbo's expulsion,
contends Ellender, Maybank and
Thomas violated the constitu-
ton by unfolding Bilbo's action
in denying Negroes the vote"

Ex-CI's and Youth
Promote Better
Farms in Virginia

Typical of thousands of ex-GPs
and older farm youths all over the
South who are organizing agricul'
tural clubs to promote better
farming is the Nansamond Coun-
~. Va, organization, reports John
W. Mitchell, Extension Service
Field agent of the q. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Mr.. Mitchell, who was principle
speaker at the Virginia clubs
first anniversary observance re-
Gently, says that it was revealed
at the celebration that the young
club has already launched a COM
prehensive farm improvement pro-
gram.
Composed of six ex-GPs and a.
bout a dozen elder farm youths,
the club initiated hybrid corn,
purebred swine, and poultry prof.
ects. Growing sixteen acres of
hybrid corn as a demonstration.
the club members get a yield Of
sixty bushels per acre. The eight
members who tried their hand at
raising purebred Berkshire swine
got a fall pig crop of SO.
County agent James Harris, who
organized the club, says that one
of the ultimate goals is to i'm
prove the breed of the livestock,
poultry, and grain products in the
country.

Liberal Party Ignored
In New Jap Cabinet
BY the Assceic,ed Press

TOKYO, May 81. - Pointedly
Ignoring the Liberty Party, Premier
Tetsu Katayama today selected a
cabinet Of seven Socialists, six
Democrats and two Cooperative
Party members. Appointments of a
seventh Democrat and an indie
pendent are pending.
As the price OF participation In
the coalition, the Democrats-con-
sentative despite their name-Were
given the important Foreign, Home
and Finance Ministries. Katayama' S
socialists, however, kept the Minis
tries Of Agriculture and of Com
merce and Industry, domestically
vital.
A hot spot, director of the Eco
nomic Sterilization Board, was as
signed to Independent Hiro Wada,
who had not accepted but was ex-
pected to.
Mitsusuke Yonekubo. veteran
Socialist leader of the japanese
Seamen's Union, was appointed
minister without portfolio, a Job
which is expected to develop into
the country's first labor ministry.
The Liberal actually conserva-
tive) party of former Premier Shi-
geru Yoshida refused to go along
on coalition because the Socialists
would not promise to purge their
leftist members. There were no
leftiSts in the new cabinet, however
