listen to his comprehensive message
which he has delivered to this body
and in which he has made a plea for
cooperation with the Government for
the effective working of the Admins

improvements that are likely to be in

Governor was very careful to say that

may have the return of the Internal
Revenue Tax for with the return of
that we will not have to go always ask

Chicago Judge
Fails to Fine
Participants

CHICAGO CAMP Up North
in Chicago you can still stir up
anti-Negro mob violence and not
have to worry about a fine and a
stiff sentence. However, some of
the victims Of the clash may re-
ceive penalties.
On Chicago's southwest side last
week Sd persons were arrested
duringa racial disturbance follow
ing a facist-like attack on the
home Of a white left-wing trade
union leader who invited several
Negroes to his home as guests.
However, when the identity Of the
arrested was revealed it was dis
covered that most of them were
victims of theattck which involv-
ed 5000.
The mob thought the Negroes
were buying the house and i'm
mediately they endanged the
white owners of the home and all
persons, regardless of race, who
looked like strangers in the
neighborhood.
In Municipal court, Judge Oscar
Caplan reassigned 81 Of the cases,
dismissed three, and two were
given 90-day continuances.
As to the punishment Of persons
actually starting the riot, Negroes
here took a dim view of a state
ment made by Judge Oscar Cap
Ian. The Judge declared:
"Such situations as this can't be
solved merely by fines or. con-
victions. We must try to alleviate
the situation causing the sdistur-
Dances. That is my aim rather
than prosecution and conviction of

Takes Over
At NCNW

Dorothy Boulding Ferebee enter
ed last week, upon her duties as
the second president of the Natl
onal Council Of Negro Women,
following her election, at the re-
cent annual convention of NCN-
w, in Washington.
Seated at the familiar desk
where Mrs. Bethune has held sway
for the IA years of the Councils
life, DR.. Ferebee issued the follow
ing statement:
81 feel it a signal honor to have
been elected to the presidency Of

ility that l accept the responsible
ty Of the organization, following

Chicagoans are wondering what
shape the country would be in if
such a philosophical attitude was
taken toward all criminal and civil
offenses. While the city's law en-
forcement departments are ap-
parently asleep on the job or actu-
ally encouraging mob violence,
fascist-like attacks on Negroes,
Jews, Strangers" and people who
look like Communists continue.

SPECIAL RECIPES.

from Mrs. C.. A. r., Silper Spring. }
To Mrs. H. M. ", Arlington: I
have the same problem you have
in my family. One Of us cannot
eat baking powder or soda. Here
are q few Of the recipes that 7 use.
Cake shortened with oil: Three
eggs, " teaspoon salt, " cup
boiling water. cup sugar. Ia
cups sifted pastry -four. h cup
cooking oil, grated yellow rind Of
l lemon. Break the eggs into an
earthenware mixing bowl and set
the bowl in q pan Of hot water.
Add the salt to the eggs and beat
the eggs with q rotary egg beater
till they become light and stiff
Beat the boiling water into the
eggs and beat again until stiff
Gradually beat in the sugar. add
ing it q little at q time, and beat
ing we'll between the additions OF
sugar, and until the batter is stiff
and light and nearly fills q 1h-
quart bowl. Beat in the lemon
rind and the oil.
Now comes the most particu-
lar part Of the making OF the
cake-the folding in Of the flour
It is easy. II care Is not taken
to work out all the air that has
been beaten into the batter. and
the air is what is depended upon
to make the cake light. A flat
wire whip is the best utensl to
use in folding in the hour. Sift
4 little of the -four over the tor
Of the stifny beaten batter. Fold
it In by dipping the whip edge
wise down at the side Of the bowl
and lifting 1t up fiatwise through
the center. When this -four Is
partly folded in. sift on more flour
and fold it in the same way. Con-
tinue folding flour in until all the
-four has been used. but do not
fold = stroke more than is neces-
sary to get the flour completely
blended with the batter.
Pour at once into a cake tin
which has . piece of oiled paper
fitted into the bottom. Do not
oil the sides Of the tin. Bake
in . moderate oven till a broom
straw run into the cake comes
out clean. When the cake Is taken
from the oven, turn 1t upside
down to cool in the tin, placing
something under the edge Of the
tin so that air can circulate un-
der it. Then if the cake falls
1t will fall upward and be lighter
When the cake is cool, it can be
removed from the tin by Iunning
q knife around the sides of the
cake.
BY baking this batter in three
cake tins 1t can be used for a
layer cake. It will not be neces-
sary to fit oiled paper to the
bottom Of the tins. Instead, oil
the tins. then sprinkle them with
flour. This batter may also be
