Better Business Bureau Hits
Come-0n Puzzle Contests
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-The Ma
tional Better Business Bureau
yesterday condemned contests
which it said use easy puzzles as
come-ons and follow them up with
brain busters.
The bureau said the contests ii
objects to are run like this: You
are given an easy puzzle to solve
but to enter the contest you have
to buy something or donate to
some cause. Later, after spend
ing or donating your money, you
learn that the payoff involves tie
breaking contests with puzzles sc
difficult that few, if any contest
ants. can completely solve"
The bureau declared it had NO
objection to contests as such and
that when properly used they are
mot only legitimate device but
are popular with a great many
readers"

Crowded Schools a
National Problem

SAN FRANCISCO, July Is. CA
MP = Overcrowded classrooms
without a doubt make up educa-
tional problem. During the war,
building restrictions prevented the
charging of old schools or build
ing of new schools.
Hardest hit were the states of
the west coast, California, Oregon
and Washington, where numerous
war workers migrated for good
paying defense jobs.
They top the states with the
greatest need for more school IA
cilities. Thousands of students at
tend double shifts in order to get
any training at all.
Among the newcomers to this
area and other overcrowded areas
are Negroes who left the south to
go into industry. Although the wal
is over, they have not returned to
their home states.
Those migrants, do not have
much choice when it comes to
schooling, however. If they return
to the south they would be sub
jected to the segregated but UNI
equal educational setup there. If
they stay here they will be in the
same fix with whites too, Of go
ing to overcrowded schools.
Officials in Los Angeles are
working on building 5000 more
classrooms by 1860. This is a ra-
ito of a classroom a day for the
next 10 years.
San Francisco, too, is planning
a program to ease the classroom

operation to be found in the
world. Benedict college on one
side of the street and Allen uni
versity on the other side. One
Methodist and the other Baptist.
Side by side these schools have
stood for three quarters of a CEN
tury Like two loving sisters they
have functioned in ways that
would be startling, if accurately
told, as an epic in inter-denomi-
national, intra-racial cooperation.
Forty years ago these two
schools had two great presidents
who planted the seeds of a great
cooperation which have. lowered
into one of the nations finest
blue prints of intra-racial coopera-
ton. Benedict had as It's great
president one DR.. Abram G.. Os-
born, a New England yankee of
colossal proportions; Allen had
for it's great president one DIR.
William Decker Johnson who was
a Methodist of Methodists and a
consummate christian gentleman
and scholar. These two moral stall
warts laid the foundation of an
intra-racial cooperation that has
stood the test of time! These two
fine institutions under Drs. Ba-
coats and Higgins present today
one of the finest examples of what
the Negro race must do if it would
out-live the present handicaps
which harrass it so sorely. I have
known large white universities
closely situated that had to break
off athletic relations because Of
bitter rivalries and other animosi-
ties. But Benedict and Allen have
continued a friendly rivalry that
has lasted 40 years to my knowl-
edge. And now they are exchang-
ing faculties and facilities in a
mutually helpful way. It is ex-
ceedingly doubtful if such a fine
record of cooperation can be du-

otherwise hopeful situation are the
endless pickering and jealousies
and intrigues which so often char
~acterize the strivings and contriv-
ings of the Negro race. Our
churches are seething with fac
tionalism and feuds and our de-
nominations are ever spilt-con-
cious. Everybody talks about the
aw of love but nobody wants to
abide by it. We Glamour for, and
about, Democracy but so few of
is are willing to abide by demo-
cratic principles. The revolving
minorities in our organizations
and matters of every day occur
renee. We are wont to lambast the
white man for his indifference to
our civil rights and responsible
titles; but we are just as prone to
want to ignore democratic princi-
Piles and procedures when our
personal fortunes are involved.
The curse of the Baptist denom-
nation is this self-same split-ism
that so grievously afflicts this
great branch of the protestant
faith. Catholicism is one; protest
antism is divided. The curse Of.
this divisionism is too dramati-
cally demonstrated in the multi
pliciiy of Negro churches Of the
store-front variety. This is not
necessarily a condemnation of the
st.one-front church, but a keen
regret for the conditions which
Lring them forth. the strife, TIE
confusion, the persecution, the
contention and the unchristianli-
less of it all.
The Baptist denomination as it
pertains to Negroes in these Uni
ter States claims millions Of ad-
kerents, just how man, rob ,dy
knows. They are split into tW2
rnajor factions when consciously
or unconsciously are working at
cross-purposes. 1t is dishearting to
shee how nonresident or feeble
ore the efforts to reunite tnesa
brethren Of 2 common faith aid
doctrine. The great AME chL4ch
is bitterly torn with dissensions
which are fast sapping the
strength of one Of the races great
est adventures. Although a Bap-
fist, to the manner born, of Bap-
fist lineage, I have so often held
up the great AME church as a
rnodel of Negro self-reliance and
integrity. Negro methodism has a
no more devout follower Of Rich
ard Allen than this writer. When
/ go to Atlanta and look over At
]anta university system that great
educational center for the educa-
tor of Negroes, I am forced to
look with greater reverence upon
Morris Brown college, just be-
cause it was built by Negroes for
Negroes. It represents the highest
and the best in the Negro race

HE WHO LAUGHS LAST

Oregon's wealthy Republican Wayne Morse has served notice that he will block every bill Chairman Willard Tydings of Maryland tries to steamroller through the Senate Armed Services Committee.
 Morse issued his warning private ly after rowing with Tydings pub licly over whether the Navy should report to Congress it's disposal of surplus property. This is now re- quired by law, but Tydings wants to repeal the law and let the Navy dispose of property without any natlic report Morse objected on the ground that Congress should not give up it's checks on the mili- tary. But in committee Tydings overruled him.
 However, the Oregon Senator IS going to have the last laugh. For ! he can block most of Tydings bills | on the Senate floor, and he has served notice that he will do so- whenever the chairman tries to jam legislation down the throats of com mittee members without a fair vote

But some hundreds of millions go specialized purposes such research programs sponsored by the Atomic Energy Commission the Ma tional Military Establishment the Department o1 Agr- culture etc
 The need for such specialized projects is not in question in nation which has built much of It's prosperit on constant technologlcal advance The danger lies in gradual encroachment of Federal control these educational activities, as MT Lien- thai has pointed And the question to be decided is whether this can be prevented better by coordnatng under single administrative board the present piece meal programs by continuing to have them ad- ministered by the agencies whose functions the par ticular programs
 The bill for Federal aid to public schools recently passed by the Senate contains explicit prohibition against Federal control But where such prohibition not explicit and where huge complex of special grants under separate agencies exists, the need for coordnating and rationalizng these grants in order to avoid waste and duplication must be balanced against the tendency of centralized power to exert constantly stricter controls

LIFTING LITTLE IRON CURTAIN


 Debated backstage during the closing days of the Paris conference was a point which may revoiu- tionize U. s. policy toward Iron Curtain countries. It was: Should the U.S.A. create a Little Marshall Plan for the satellite countries?
 Two schools of thought exist among American diplomats. Both agree that Europe badly needs East West trade and that the German Ruhr must have markets in Bull garia. Hungary, Rumania and oth- CT satellite countries.
 However, one diplomatic school opposes economic aid to any Iron Curtain country. Such aid, it is ar gued, is only an indirect way O. helping Russia.
 The other school argues that aid to Czechoslovakia, Poland, Hungary. etc would win over the people ot these countries-already resentful of Soviet rule. This group is prepar- ed to take the calculated risk oi helping Russia in order to persuade the satellites to break away from Russia
 However, it was economic unrest inside Yugoslavia that helped in- duce Tito to pull up his Iron Cur tain. Therefore the No. l school argues that our best policy is to let the satellites stew in their own economic juice until they really re- alize how tough life behind toe Iron Curtain is.
 Note-Despite Foreign Minister Vishinsky's smiles at Paris, Russia still has TIP fully trained divisions of the Red Army, plus l80 Reserve divisions which can be mobilized 1T sixty days.
