High property taxes. City Coun-
Gil could have at least one member
who is conscious of the high prop
erty taxes, to be sure that no more
taxes are shifted to the home own
ers and other property taxpayers.
City lost $3,O00,000 in property
taxes when the city leased out the
city stadium, Fox theater, and Fox
Parking lot, without requiring pay
ment of all property taxes. Who
is going to make up this loss. Uno
Who! Home owners and other
property taxpayers, of course.
Rent tax. Repeal it. Property
taxpayers who have apartments for
rent and rooming houses and other
rentals whose rental income was
frozen at the 1912 level under rent
control, while the price of every
thing they had to buy skyrocketed
and who have had vacancies and
low rentals for the past five months
since rent control ended can
not afford to pay, the rent tax. And
| it is not fair to make the tenants
pay it. Repeal the rent tax. The
city repealed the manufacturers
sales tax, but continued the rent
tax, which is eight time as high as
manufacturers sales tax. Repeal
the rent tax.
We need new industry, jobs and
payrolls. We have 5000 unem-
ployed, vacancies in apartments
and in business properties, 35 pages
of property tax sales. City of Phoe-
nix should take the lead in our
fight for fair freight rates so that
new industry can sell their prod
ucts throughout the state and out
side the state. Los Angeles manu-
facturers can send package freight
to Phoenix every day, overnight de-
livery on the Southern Pacific and
second morning delivery on the
Santa Fe. But a Phoenix manu-
facturer cannot send any package
freight out of Phoenix on the
Southern Pacific at all, and on the
Santa Fe number of days are re-
quired instead of overnight deliv-
cry to points in northern Arizona.
But why does no one represent the
city of Phoenix at the freight rate
hearing on October 20? Neither the
mayor, nor the city manager, nor
the industrial development COM
mittee. They talk about helping
new industry, but when the show
down comes, they are not there.
Councilman for each district. We
need a councilman for every sec
ton of the city. Then we will be
sure there is at least one who is
your neighbor, and who under
stands the needs and problems OF
the district. Otherwise, it is pos
sible that all councilmen could be
from one end of the city and not
know how the rest of the people
live.

New Book Gives Yesterday
And Today Of Negro
In America

The title of this book, "The Ne
gro in the United States," aptly
describes it's subject matter, for
it is the story of the Negro in
America, today, and yesterday,
with a recommendation of what it
should be tomorrow.
1t would be an excellent edi-
ton to a library on Negro history
and Negro sociology.
Probably, the books greatest as
set is it's approach. 1t is a socio-
logical study of the Negro, not as
a separate group, but as an inte-
grail part of American society.
Divided into five parts and a
conclusion, the book opens with a
history of the American Negro
from his African heritage to to-
day in two parts.
In part 3, DR.. Frazier discusses
the Negro community and it's in
stitutions including family, church
and business enterprises. He
traces each section and topic his
torically and geographically, then
describes it as it is today.
Part 4 covers intellectual life
and leadership. In this section the
outhor overs the schools and col
leges, the press, Negro leaders,
social movements and other like
topics. These two are traced his
t~orically and then brought up to
date.
Problems of an adjustment such
as health, employment, crime, FAM
lily disorganization, mental defici-
ency, and race drelations are dis
cussed in part 5. Here the writer
analyzese many Of the problems
facing Negroes today. At the
same time he brings in more his
tory as background.
Prof. Frazier's conclusion is
titled Prospects for Indignation
of the Negro into American Soci.
ety..
Despite the great task attempted
by this book, it is clearly writer
so that it is easy to read. The
scholarship required here makes i
a good reference book.

go university writes in the intro

Jesus has not relinquished

manhood perpetual' by i'm
mortality. Because of His re-

into existence a new creation,

of which He is the sovereign
Head. AS "Prince Leader of
their salvation" He, having
been made perfect through
suffering" is "bringing many
sons to glory in the host of

and nation. Dying upon the
cross as ''the Man of Sorrows"
He manifested His right to
reign over mems hearts and
lives. The malefactor yielded
his heart to Jesus and that

Paradise. Multitudes have
yielded their hearts and lives

In quoting the Eighth Psalm,
the writer of this epistle had in
mind, not a sinful, fallen man,
but a sinless, perfect Man,
Who alone could exercise the
prerogative of universal do
minion over all earth's crea-
lures and earth's forces. In
many of the Psalms, Messiah
is represented as the ideal
Man, living a sinless life among
sinners and yet being rejected
of them. It is this Man, Who
is set as ''King upon My holy
hill of Zion." It is this Man,
Who is seen seated at Gods
fright hand until His enemies
are made His footstool." Jesus
referred to Himself sixty times
as the 'Son Of man." Taking
upon Him mans nature, He
endured the trials and temp
tations of man, but rose tri-
umphant above them. To an
gels was given the mission of
announcing Jesus birth and
also of announcing His resur-
rection. Angels were the min
istering servants of Christ, as
seen in the wilderness tempta-
ton and in the agony of Geth-
semane. Jesus was ''made a lit
tie lower than the angels for
the suffering of DEATH" He was
crowned with thorns by wick
ed men; He was raised from
the dead and is seated at Gods
right hand. Everything is put
in subsection to Him and
everything is placed under His
feet, although eve do not yet
see all things put under Him."
Jesus taught that 'the meek
shall inherit the earth" mot
the arrogant, nor the willful,
selfish tyrants of earth. He

and lowly in heart" He turned
