DR.. Cox Pleas for
West Side School

peared at the meeting to plea for
a fulfillment of a promise to con-
struct a new Garfield school.
A delegation of Negroes led by
DR.. Lloyd Cox appeared before
the board to request that some
thing be done about the monstros-
ity called Garfield. Cox reminded
the board that Paul Schenck had
promised in 1916 that if Negroes
would support the 10-year i'm
provement tax and bond issue,
they would benefit by a new Gar
field school and other improve
ments. Cox said that Schenck ap-
peared at a Garfield Parent-Teach-
ers association meeting and stated:
Il am authorized by the superin-
tendent to tell you that you will
get a new school if the levy
passes"
Paul Workman, who presided
at the board meeting in the alb
sence of Schenck, replyed to Cox's
plea by saying that the present
school board was not to be held
to ''illegal and unauthorized"
promises made by previous boards.
He said neither the superintendent
nor Schenck could make any
promises without the sanction of
the school board. He added that
in November, 1916, when Schenck
made the promise that the board
had not passed on it.
Cox rejoined with the remarks,

Facts

In this, an age Of progress, Ne
groes are to be found endeavor-
ing to keep pace in the field of
education, lin the field of sports,
in the field of political interest
and yes in the field of business.
Voving parallel with the above
named progresses have been a
most important progress, that of,
assuring a place in which to lay
a weary head in the twilight of
life through the purchase of a
home. 1t is in this endeavor that
our realtors can render a great
service.
In the purchase of a home there
are to be found many pitfalls,
anyone of which can mean the diff
ference between success and fail
ure or at least an unforeseen set
back. The one most prevalent is
the lack of knowledge on the
part of the mortgagor Of the So
called "prepaid authorization" an
agreement between the mortgagor
and mortgage which gives the
m~ortgagor the right upon paying
out his second mortgage to i'm
mediately pay of fhis first re-
CARELESS of the number of years
said first mortgage has to run.
The absence of such an agree
ment means that in the event the
m~ortgagor pays out the second
mortgage and desires to do the
same with his first it becomes nee
essary for him to pay aside from
the amount of the first mortgage,
also the accumulated interest for

The Labor View

The extent that some white
males will use the pretense of pro-
tecting white womanhood to JUS
tify discrimination against Negro
workers is most remarkable. Ex-
amples of this sort of subterfuge
can be found in any American
factory or industry. Great Britain
and the Union of South Africa
provide the two following ex-
amples. They indicate, among 9th
er things, that the problems fac
ing Negro peoples r essentially
similar all over the world.
A friend who has just returned
from a stay of several months in
Liverpool, England, reports that
he was shocked by the strong re-
sentiment which many English
workers hold toward Negroes from
the eWst Indies and Africa. 1t
appears that Negro sailors from

Free Tow Of Assault
Charge; Another
confesses

LEXINGTON, S. c., Sept. Is.
(ANP)-A web Of circumstantial
evidence caused two friends to be
jailed for two months on separate
charges of criminal assault and
robbery, but they were released
from Jail here last week when
another man confessed to the
crimes. The innocent victims of
the charges were James May, sad
died with criminal assault and
robbery of a Columbia white girl,
and Malverse Richardson, charged
with robbing the woman's three
companions.
The real perpetrator of the
deed was said to be Matthew JAM
ison, Jr., who previously had ad-
mitted to the forced entry and
robbery of a West Columbia home
at knife and gun point August &c,
and who was being held in Jail
awaiting trial.
According to Sheriff H. M.
Caughman of Lexington county,
Way and Richardson had planned
on July 5 to meet at II o'clock
at night at the exact spot where
the assault and robberies were
committed. He said they claimed
to have been upstate separately
on holiday trips and to have
known nothing of the crimes.
When they met, the crimes had
been committed, and policemen
arrested them for being present at
the scene. They had insisted that
only one man was involved in the
case, but the police pointed out
that two men could have per-
formed the crimes because it was
done at night, near the Guignard
brick works.

these areas have been entering
such cities as Liverpool and Car
diff for many years. When jobs
are scarce and the native white
workers, particularly in the water
front, regard the migrant Negroes
as a menace. And for nearly a
generation now, jobs have not
been too plentiful in many Brit
ish towns.
A mass meeting was called in
Liverpool in the spring to expound
the causee of better race rela-
tons and the solidarity of all
workers. My friend, who is a Ne
gro, was invited to address the
meeting. During the course of
this speech a heckler shouted:
eve don't mind the blackies COM
ing here to work, but we want to
stop them from abusing our wo-
men!"

selves to unnecessary dangers.
AS to the spirit which should
animate the permanent Israeli
government, discussions have al
ready begun. Should there be a
State Church, as in England, or
should Church and State be sep
arated, as in the United States
and France? Should the legal
code go back to the Talmud or
should the more modern British
American Common Law or the
French Napoleonic be adopted T?
These are highly important ques-
tons which will affect the daily
life of the inhabitants of Israel,
questions, however, upon which
this writer does not feel capable
of expressing any worthwhile
opinion.
But it is the governmental
structure that Israel should rear,
specifically the relationship be-
tween the Executive and the Leg
islative branches, that I wish to
discuss mainly in this article.
Here, democratic republic, will be
guided mainly by the government
tai structures of the United States,
France and the British countries.
Swiss governmental system will
probably not merit much atten-
ton.
The question of the relationship
between the Executive and Legis-
lative powers of a country is
highly important because upon it
depends the strength of a gov
eminent, its responsibility to pub
lie opinion, it's honesty, its true
representative character. The
American system, am afraid,
does not meet the test, as even
such a good and great American
as Woodrow Wilson held. The
President here is the Chief Execu-
tive, Congress is the Legislative
Power and the two are supposed
to be separate. Yet the President
has the right to veto bills passed
by Congress and can issue EXecu-
tive Orders which are sometimes
very similar to laws, while Con-

TEST Being MADE OF
new LANDING GEAR
AT FAIRBANKS NOW

DAYTON, Ohio, May 3.-IR--
Landing gear designed to let a
big cargo airplane down safely
either on concrete or deep snow is
being tested at Fairbanks, Alaska.
The gear is a combination ski
and wheel developed by the Air
Materiel Command and the FEEDER
al Aircrafts Works of Minneapolis
The skis can be raised or lowered
electrically in relation to the
wheels.
They were originally made fol-
use on CAT cargo planes and used
on the recent naval expedition to
the South Pole. The gear now
has been adapted for use on a
Fairchild C-82 and is the first
electrically operated and the first
using a nose ski in addition to
the two main skis.
The center portion of the skis
are cut out to permit the wheel
to stick through The main skis
are 16 feet long and four feet wide
and have small wings attached tc
keep them in position. They are al
most completely retracted during
flight.
AMC officers said the ship was
being tested on all types of snow
and ice for take-off, landing dis
lance, and turing radius.
They said the gear would make
it possible to use airfields most OF
the year and air transportation
available to Arctic areas.
THE gear will be especially val
liable for transport and cargo
planes in the event of any future
military activity in the Polar re.
gions," the announcement said.
