FAITH L GONE?

then in his fellowmen? We have
been fooled so very often, disap-
pointed, double-crossed; we've
been let down with a bad thump
and have worn we'd not be TAX
en- in sd quickly again.
Something happens inside of a
man when he loses self-contain-
ed; he seems to shrivel up.
Then along comes an incident
in u own lives, Or in the lives
of those about about us, to re-
store our faith in the goodness
of our fellows. They're not so
bad after all. not any more sell
fish and thoughtless than we are
too-that is, if we a be truly
honest.
A friend must make himself
friendly. We are responded to

well.
Most of u associates only re-
fleet an image of ourselves. We
must remember that the mirror

line with the suggestion he made

In making his original sugges-
ton, Senator Butler pointed out
that Congress had granted author

was a mistake, and Congress
ought to be frank enough to adj

and complete sell-out at a
special performance held last Fri
day night, July 25.
The long awaited premiere,
complete with guest celebritis and
stars of the film, is the first
such opening Harlan has seen in
over ten years. Among the guest;
introduced by Joe Bostic, noted
columnist who M. cd the guest
appearances. was Housing Com
missioner Jones, who said, AS a
city official, I am gald to be able
to examine the happy results Of
a motion picture that was cast
and filmed in New York City.
The success of "Sepia Cinderella
will attract other studios who are
looking for central production
locales"
Commissioner Jones went on to
explain that the Negro race had
made progress in every field but
motion pictures. while "Sepia
Cinderella is not a million-dol-
lar production, the picture has
many attributes which recon-
mend it. 1t is honestly, a mile
stone in the motion picture in
dustry..
State Parole Officer Sam J.
Battle, another honored guest,
caused a sudden uproar when he
commented, Il knew most of the
people in the picture when I was
a cop whose beat was Harlem.
Now look at them. big actors
and actresses, and good ones"
An appreciative hum ran
through the audience when Frank
Shiffman. managing director of
the Apollo, introduced on of the
stars, Miss June Proctor. who wor
the national Miss Sepia Cind-
erella title. A graceful and beau
tiful figure mounted the stage
amid wolf calls and other signs
of appreciation, Miss Proctor has
been signed to an exclusive con-
tract by Jack Goldberg, presi-
ident of Herald Pictures.
A survey of audience reaction
showed that one of the big NOM
! ents in the picture was the ap-
pearance of guest star Freddie
Bartholomew. Most of the people
interviewed We're both pleased
and amazed at the complete ease
with which the young actor hand
led a difficult inter-racial role.
1t was generally agreed that
the success of the pictule and
the diversified stage show would
keep the Apollo Theatre damned
