DESERVED TRIBUTE Despite
nearly one-third cut in personnel,
the legislative reference service Of
the Library of Congress has con-
tinued its excellent work In serving
the needs Of Congress.
Members Of Congress depend on
the reference service, which is
headed by its very able director,
Ernest S. Griffith, to furnish ma
terial for speeches, research work,
drafting legislation and countless
other projects. But some employees
in the division have been wondering
about Congress sense of gratitude
ever since they suffered a sharp
budget cut last year.
That is why the division was very
pleased the other day when Repre-
sentative Snyder, Republican, of
West Virginia, paid tribute on the
House floor to DR.. Grifith and his
staff.
The reason that DR.. Griffith is
able to do such a fine job is because
he has surrounded himself with an
able and outstanding staff" MIR.
Snyder declared.
The West Virginian is a freshman
legislator, and perhaps this is why
he appreciates the work done by
the service. Some Of the old-timers
around Congress evidently have be-
gun to take too much for granted.
. CAPITAL ROUNDUP-Undersec-
retary of Agriculture Norris E.
Dodd is reported to be under White
House consideration as the next
Secretary Of Agriculture. The Cab
met post is being vacated by Sec
retary of Agriculture Anderson, who
is resigning to seek the Democratic
nomination for United States Sena-
tor from New Mexico. The
chances don't look too good for the
bill to establish q new Federal de-
partment Of transportation. Con-
siderable opposition to the measure
has developed in Congress, as well
as among outside interests.

the workers as high as SIS a day.
He added that the padrone sold

Start New Businesses
In New Building
In Raleigh

RALEIGH, N. c., Aug. 80. "a
NP)-New achievements in bust
less by Negroes seem to be the
promise for the future in Raleigh
with the recent construction of a
$4,000 building in the 400 block
on St. Gloodworth street.
With the completion of this
building are coming four new col
ored business enterprises; a mod
ern florist shop, a ice cream and
soda shop, a cooperative super
market and a garage.
The florist shop and soda bar
have already opened. When the
building is completely finished the
other firms are expected to open
shortly.
A World War III veteran, Julius
Haywood, tired of working for
"the other fellow" operates the
Haywood Soda and Sundry shop.
He said that business was open
for progress more than the cover
crowded professions" In Raleigh
he is we'll known for his activities
as a Mason and an Elk and as
president of Royal %, a social
club. He lives with his wife and
daughter.
A former newspaper man, An
drew J. Turner, owns the florist
shop. He believes Negroes should
invest in all kinds of businesses,
especially fields that are not too
overcrowded.
He is an officer Of First Con-
gregational church, a Mason, a
Shriner and a member of the Phi
Beta Sigma fraternity. He is mar
ried.
The Wake Consumer Mutual as
ISOLATION, headed by the Rev. G.
E. Cheek, will run the largest en-
terprise in the new Cooper build
ing, a cooperative super market.
In a recent meeting last week, in
terested Negroes invested $1,000
in shares for the new business.
Officers of this group besides
Rev. Check are Mrs. Mary Lyons,
secretary; the Rev. P. H. johnson,
treasurer land James A. Shepard,
manager.
Leaders Of these business ven
lures hope that they can inspire
other Negroes to invest in enter
