Wilson draws .lavlshly upon mod
ern examples and incidents to
give meaning to his utterances.
This fraternal leader is the en-
bodiment of all he believes about
successful public speaking. my
opinion of a good speaker is that
he should be familiar with his
subject. remarks Wilson. He
should have poise. good diction.
and put himself into the subject
without OVERRIDING It." The ora
tors pet subjects are human rights
equal opportunities and even-hand-
ed justice to the end that the
Negro may vote as freely in New
Orleans as in New York
In terms of being a Snowman,
J. Finley Wilson is an actor on
the platform He obtains variety
by appropriate rise and fall of
voice. His powerful voice is re-
inforced by energetic and vigorous
gestures. He talks the language
that gets hearing from the COM
mon man, yet there is dignity
about his diction which also makes
an appeal to the most cultured
and refined people in his audien-
ces. Like Demosthenes. Wilson be-
lieves in action and more action.

A crowd of listeners jammed
a church in Admission. Ala. in the
spring of 1888. They had come to
witness the Alabama State finals
Of the Elks' Oratorical Contest.
Students from several Alabama
high schools matched eloquence
as they spoke on some phase of
the United States Constitution.
One young orator won first place
with an Grafton entitled: Fred
erick Douglass and the Constitu-
tion.".
]. Finley Wilson. Grand Exalt-
ed Ruler of the Elks, was pres
emit and arose to pay tribute to
the several student speakers. The
contest had lasted two or more
hours and the audience was be-
ginning to get restless. Before
many minutes had passed, how
ever, Finley had cast a spell over
his audience and they hung to
his every word. He was speak
ing the peoples language; he was
advancing the Negroes cause.
Finley displayed all the tricks
of oratory, and his subject set
him, as it were, on fire, First.
there was conversation mixed with
the dramatic pause for effect.
Frequent modulations of voice,
that sounded like the notes of
bass saxophone, were follow
ed by rapid-fire sentences. All
the while he was warming up to
his subject. AS he reached the
climax, his laundering voice
brought forth long and prolonged
applause from the audience.
The orator then took his seat,
Pandemonium let loose, and it
was some time before the presid-
ing officer could restore order
amid shouts of go oni" and
"Give us morei"
As Grand Exalted Ruler of the
Elks, Wilson has appeared in the
principal cities and towns of the
South, as well as the Nation at
large. While attending to matters
of the fraternal order, Finley
is pressed into service as an
orator on the platform in the
places that he visits.
Much of Wilson's speaking is
done on subjects pertaining to
the requirements of the Elks'
lodge. But this master orator is
at his best when speaking on the
age-old theme of racial injustice
and intolerance. To advance the
Negroes cause on the platform

PARDON FOR
 CUERRILLA5
 IS OFFERED
Greek Government Planes Scatter Leaflets Re-
 quesfing Surrender

ATHENS, Sept l9.-lR-Govern- ment planes today scattered leaf lets over northern Greece offer ing pardon to guerrillas who sur rendered within 30 days, but a guerrilla radio station ridiculed the amnesty offer.
 It was officially reported in Athens that guerrilla leaders were taking ruthless measures to pre- vent members of their leftist groups from giving up.
 The guerrilla broadcast said the new liberal premier. Themistokles Sophoulis. was continuing the work of the Germans and of Johnk Ral- is. a puppet premier during the occupation, and declared:
 Democratic Greece's reply to the Anglo-Ameyican tyrants and to their contractor. Sophoulis, is that she will not surrender her arms and is calling on them to come and take them"
 Meanwhile l,400 political depor- tees released by the government from concentration camps on the island of Ikaria arrived today at Piraeus. the Port of Athens, and were set free Six hundred others are expected to rive soon. Since the Sophoulis cabinet took office, approximately 1000 deportees have been leleased.
 The amnesty leaflets are in line with a law passed by parlia- ment last Saturday at the request of Sophoulis. Planes began the distribution Wednesday, and ar to continue it through next week.
