NOTICE TO PRESIDENTS

Sometime during the month of
September the office force mailed a
policy through a mistake to the
wrong president and that particular
president kept the police, which he
knew was not his, until January II,
1913.
The office regrets very much that
this president saw fit to hold this
police in his possession going on five
months. When this is done it isn't
fair to the office and neither is it
fair to the lodge where is rightfully
belongs. We do hope that such an
act will not be practiced by any of
our other presidents. The only way
your office can successfully operate
IS by the wholehearted support of
every president in the Association.

We are happy to state that lodge
No. 373 of which Mr.. Aaron Trotter,
known throughout the Association
as King Fish" is still increasing his
membership.
1t might interest the readers to
know that Brother Trotter has been
in i'll health now for, several years,
however, the constructive work that
he has done in his lodge throughout
the years is rooted so deeply into the
hearts and minds of his members
that they gladly carry on in his alb
sence.
The members admire and respect
their president and are willing to do
their bit in helping him to put the
program over.
It is no small job to manage a
lodge with a membership of a hun
ddred and thirty-odd members, and
the office wishes to congratulate
Brother Trotter, his efficient officers
and his loyal members for the won
derful cooperation they have and are
giving the office.

Fish Travels Five Feet
On Land 10 Get Bali
Returns 10 Water

~GREENVILLE, S. c., April %.
(ANP)-Water or no water, a
fish will get the bait. Raymond
Duffy, ardent fisherman of the
old school and former chef at
Hotel Aston, New York, discov-
cred this truism recently when a
3-pound catfish travelled five feet
on dry land from the edge of Tar
river to reach a hook and line
baited with a small ell and then
returned over the same route to
his natural element.
Duffy had baited the hook with
an eel with a view to sharing some
muskrats that were in the vicinity.
He tied the line to a sapline about
five feet from the waters edge,
placed the baited hook at a musk
rat burrow and left it there.
The next day, the line was in
the water and moving. Thinking
he had a muskrat, he hauled the
line in. But instead of a muskrat
on hook, he had a catfish.
Wondering how the fish could
have taken the bait, he took it
about five yards from the water
and laid it on the ground. The
fish began Hopping it's tail, at
each flop moving two feet nearer
the water. Duffy halted the flop
ping-to-water fish before it reach
ed water again.

ST. LOUIS, April %. CAMP
= The Bar Association of St.
Louis, which does not have a sim
gle Negro member, last week
opened a series of lectures on de-
mocracy in this city's high schools.
Atty. Richmond C. Coburn,
president of the association, said
that his group was considering the
application of a colored lawyer
now. He said his group did not
ban Negroes from becoming mem
bers although none Of it's 1900
members is colored.
"In my opinion" he said, "the
only thing that should matter in
a person becoming a member of
this or any other professional or
ganization is qualifications"

Several reasons are being CIV
en- TO r these acts of intolerance.
The laxity or lack of police pro-
lection by the Pekin Inn police,
reprisal for a robbery recently
committed and renewal of anti
Negro attacks in this region two
years ago are all given as causes
for the violence.
Leading Negro citizens already
have charged Capt. Harry J.
O'Connell of the Pekin Inn Police
station with attempting to hide
the story of the violence. They
claim that Capt. O'Connell had
not even reported these events to
Police Commissioner John C.
Prendefgast.
The city council has called the
police commissioner to answer for
this wave of violence against Ne
groes. O'Connel has tried to min
imize the attacks, and said that

Town in Uproar Over
Negro Hospital
Facilities

EVANSVILLE, Ind, April %.
(ANP)-Evansville business, po-
litical and medical leaders were
split last week in two factions
over whether to build a new hos
pital for Negroes here or to con-
struct a segregated wing to one
of the city's hospitals.
The clash in aims came out into
the open last week in a meeting
of the Mayors Committee on HUI
man relations. The Tri-State Com
munity hospital is conducting a
$500, 900 drive to build a new 90
bed hospital for Negroes, but
Mayor William E. Dress said bust
ness leaders and others say this
plan is to expensive.
At this meeting attended by
rs persons, the mayor said a seq
regated wing for Negroes at an
existing hospital could be built at
half the cost. Under this plan all
the facilities of the hospital would
be available to this wing.
Speaking for the Tri-Cities as
ISOLATION, the Rev. Lester Charles
cited the present inadequate seq
regated facilities for Negroes in
Evansville now. Most of those at
the meeting agreed that the hos
pital problem was one of segrega-
ton, but they offered no solution.

Lave AIDIlttOu IHo OuDCdD
high jumper, who looks forward
to another Olympics has used his
influence to aid a young jamaican
to win a scholarship to come to
this country for his schooling. The
youthful track star, Louis A.
Gooden, Jr., will attend the Dun
bar high school and then will be
eligible to continue his education
at Ohio State or any other uni
versity in this state.
Louis A. Gooden, ST., father of
the youthful Splinter, was the
Jamaican sprint champion of two
decades ago. He won many tro-
plies in his career, and he prom
ised himself that he would train
his eldest son the ancient art of
foot racing. Louis Jr., is the pro-
duct of that promise. At Womer's
Boys school the lad has excelled
in all events in which he has par
ticipated. His times for the cen
tury and the 22o are 1915 seconds
and 1913 seconds respectively.
For the age of the boy, these times
are short of phenomenal.
Albritton who was responsible
for getting the scholarship along
with J. w. Taffe is doing a splen-
did job with the Dunbar high
school track team. He coached
them to the city championship last
year and they are a cinch to re-
peat again this year. They have
not lost a city meet, have simply
pulverized all local opposition.

Gooden is still in school in
