Now ID Negro Banks
In United States

WASHINGTON = amp - The
sixth annual report of banking in.
situations owned and operated by
Negroes released by the department
OF commerce reveals that a total of
IA banks are now domiciled in nine
states and the District of Columbia,
IL OF which are members Of the
Federal Deposit Insurance corpora
ton.
An analysis of their 1947 state
ments of conditions, prepared by
Emmer Martin Lancaster, adviser
on Negro affairs to the secretary of
commerce, indicates that peak rec
ords were attained in several of their
operations.
Their total assets Of $31,307, 345
are the highest of record, exceed
ing the preceding years total of
$l,l5O,658. Although government Do
legations direct and guaranteed of
4,531, 557, declined 9.91 percent
during the year, other securities,
including obligations of states, po-
litical subdivisions, corporate stocks
and bonds amounting to $2,238,S76,
surpassed the 1916 total by $1,16S,.
221. All security holdings for the
year 1947 aggregated $16,915, 433 and
constituted 54.O3 percent of COM
bined bank assets.
Cash and balances with other
banks of $4,976.73O decreased S.25
percent since December, 1916; loans
and discounts Of $S,S3S,573 register
ed an increase during the year Of
81, 83O,386 - All percent.
1t is considered noteworthy that
IL Negro banks have been selected
as repositories for public funds of
the federal government and of the
various cities, counties and states
wherein they operate.
During the year of 1925, the Ma.
tional Bankers association COM
prised of banking institutions own
ed and operated by Negroes, was
formed by the late Maj. Richard r.
Wright, Sr., past president and
founder Of the Citizens and South

21st annual convention of the as
ISOLATION was held in Philadelphia

Nassau News
HOGS HOG 1T

Mayaguana is a poor farming COM
munity. The people Of that island de-
pend almost entirely on the land for
their livelihood.
A few years ago a resident at the
island got the idea that hogs would
be profitable and so he bought a
pair and let them run loose. They
went wild. Now the island is over
run with wild hogs.
Because Of the difficulty Of OBJ
tanning cartridges-especially during
the war and also because the
people couldn't afford to buy too
many cartridges, there has been no
way of controlling these hogs.
We have now received an appeal
from the island to get a few dogs
for them. They say good hog hunt
ing dogs come from Abaco.
If anyone has any of these dogs
and wants to help this community,
please communicate with the Tri-
bune.
$50 that there should be no mis-
understanding, we want to make it
clear that this appeal has no politi-
cal significance. Mayaguana people
have continued to come to The Tri-
bune for help and The Tribune
has continued to help them as far
as possible - in spite of their ac-
tons in 1912. The Tribune definitely
has no political interest in the dis
trict.)
1t is interesting how something
that is an asset to one place can be
a pest to another. At Inagua, for
example, parrots are pest. They
fly over in droves from Haiti and
destroy the corn crop at that is
land. Farmers have great difficulty
in controlling them.

Virginia Beach
Picnic Legion
Highlight

MIAMI, Fla - October 20 - Des-
pite cloudy weather and threat of
rain, more than 1000 colored Legion
naires and their friends at the
American Legion Convention in Mi
ami attended barbecue and outing
at Virginia Beach, sponsored by Cal
vert Distillers Corporation and Ben
F. Danbaum, Calvert distributor in
Miami.
A cross section of Legion dele
gates and visitors from the South

ent. DR.. I. P. Davis, national con-

made for entertaining that many
guests, but the rain and unfavor-
able weather kept many away. The
officials Of Dade County, Florida,
which operates Virginia Beach,
gave us every cooperation. They put
up a huge tent to accommodate our
Legionnaires, but the rainstorm
which created such havoc during the
Legion parade, had the same effect
on our tent. Nevertheless, those who
attended had a wonderful time - in
fact many told me that it was the
highlight Of their attendance at the
convention. Calvert is to be compli-
mented on the excellence Of the
food provided for this outing, and
although we had hoped to have
more present, we are very appreci-
alive of the extremely pleasant af-
ternoon enjoyed by those who were
there. 1t is an event that we shall
all remember.

to the conclusion that the good
Saint wasn't going to be interested
in nobody's race, and for that rea-

some of the brothers what says
that some folks is better than
others for any reason atall. Yes

States Launch Projects
To Solve Youth Problem

A score of state legislatures during
the past IL months put the accent
on youth in major actions designed
to help solve the special problems
of juvenile delinquents.
Some states created new bureaus
to deal expressly with youth prob
lens. At least eight state legisla-
lures authorized interim groups to
study youth troubles and services
and recommend action to the next
legislative sessions. Virtually all
state action emphasized rehabilita-
ton of dehnquents.
In Wisconsin. the legislature Gre
ated youth service division in the
state welfare department to handle
cases Of youths under 21 who break
the law. The division will have full
access to facilities of a new dag
postic unit in the state university.
Juveniles needing medical or psy-
chiatrie care will be sent there be-
fore disposition of their cases is
made.
Missouri legislators enacted
law creating special schools for
helping juvenile delinquents. In
stead of being sentenced to impris-
onment by the courts, each youth
will be placed in the school best
equipped to help him toward a more
productive, law-abiding life.
