Specifically, one group OF dele
gates-largely from the South

Another - principally from the
Midwestern corn belt - favored

That law would provide somewhat

from informing the committee
that the "a domestics in question

Horner said that the $40 per

that he has a waiting list of more
than 100 Miami families who wish
to employ the domestics. Presently

High Methodist Churchmen
Sell Shore Site to Whites

CHICAGO, June IA. (ANP)-,
How far will proponents of racial
restrictive agreements go in defy
ing the supreme court edict that
Negroes have the right to own
land under the same conditions as
whites? Just what pretense will
they resort to in order to achieve
this end?
More than 100 Negro members
of the Methodist church learned
of one ruse to deny them equality
in property ownership. Early last
week in federal district court here,
they discovered that high officials
of the denomination had sold the
valuable Kankakee Shores estate.
with it's beautiful 1850 acres of
farm land and golf course ear
Kankakee, Ill.,, to a group of white
citizens.
Two things are of interest in
this deal. One is that Negro Meth
odists purchased the property, and
the other, the property was sold
a few days after Negroes had filed
suit in federal district court to
obtain a construction of their
rights to this property.
Early last month, Negro Meth
odists filed a suit asking a decla-
ratory judgment on ownership Of
the property and other relief, in
Guiding the setting aside of any
sale that might have taken place
before or after the suit was filed.
The petition contended that they
had purchased the property by
paying 1925, 900 to the owner and
obtaining a loan of $225,000 from
the division of home missions of
the Methodist church. They also
declared that the home missions
divisions is only a mortgage of
the land, with no power to sell
the property.
Shortly after the Kankakee
Shores property was turned over
to them in 1916, a group of white
citizens in Kankakee called a
meeting of prominent citizens in
the area to consider steps to be
taken to %re-acquire the land to
white ownership. A delegation OF
these citizens went to Philadelphia
and conferred with high officials
of the denomination who decided
to sell the land back to white citi-
zen The threat that condemna-
ton proceedings would be used to
prevent continued ownership by
Negroes was given.
The suit names Is defendants,
among whom are three high rank
ing Methodist church officials,
who are charged with conspiracy
to deprive Negroes of the land
purchased with their money; the
division of home missions of the
church, and several Illinois cor
porations.
The sale O fthe estate was eff
fected through the cooperation OF
William Vernon Middleton, F. H.
Parks and M. C. Smoke of the
missions board May II. LaLwyers
