Saints Industrial School At Lexington
Poih.5 To Higher Ground Under
Leadership OF President
ARENA C. Mallory
10000 Witness CoIorfuI May Day
Parade
BY Percy Greene

Lexington, Miss. May 16-Up in
north central Mississippi where
the hills have already begun to
ferge into the rich and fabulous
Delta section of the state where
recently discovered oil gave evi-
dence of the coming of a new and
much needed wealth is Holmes
county. It's principal town and
county site is Lexington.
In Lexington there lives two
women whose activities are bound
to have a profound effect upon
the future progress and history
of Lexington and Holmes county
and indeed may well have a pro-
found effect upon the future pro-
gress of the entire state.
One is Miss Hazel Rrannon,
young white woman, Editor and
publisher of the Lexington Advert
User who is giving to journalism
in this section a new democratic
militancy. The other is Mrs. Ar
enia G. Mallory, Pesident, and for
more than 20 years the guiding
and driving spirit of the Saints
Industrial School located here.
Now rising to growing national
reorganization as a leader of the
new militancy among Negro women
of the nation she is vice president
and director of region four of the
national council of Negro women
which includes Mississippi and
six cher southern states. She is
now everywhere looked upon as
a leading spokesman for Mrs. Mary
Mcleod Bethune. She is an enthus-
iatic supporter of the NAACP.
During the last election she served
as vice chairman of the Mississippi
Division of the National Citizens
Committee for the reelection of
Pesident Tuman.
The Saints Industrial School
held It's Goth annual May Day Gel
ebration here Saturday. The school
in its ric potential sits as a jewel
in the heart of a section, where
the conditions are best exemplified
which have fade Negro education
in Mississippi long the worst in
the nation. On it's campus which
covers only small portion of its
fore than 800 acres are dormitories
for girls and boys, classroom build.
1ngs and worksho which gives ev.
idence of a well planned education
al plant. Its student body which
includes students from as far awav
as New York and California, comes
frof the homes of he rich, successful
and cultured as well as the loyly
share cropper family, to pc seen
ere as identical products of the
cultural influence of the Saints
Industrial School.
President Mallory is now plan
ming to make the Saints Indust.
rial School a Junior college. Trait
is the real Specifications of its
gOth annual May Day estival which
brought more than $4,000 raised
by students for the Junior college
Building Fund.
The celebration started at 1890
Don with a parade through the
owns business section which was
itnessed by a crowd of more than
900 people. So completely was
e town viven over to the cell
pration that freight train was
I'D up to allow the parade to pass.

EAST JACKSON KILLINGS CONTINUE TO MOUNT
Lonnie James
Nichols Enters
Pleads Monday In
Most Brutal
Sensational Crime

Lonnie James Nichols, the adj
mitted slayer of J. E. Comic, pio-
neer local businessman and wide
ly known leader, in the most
brutal and sensational crime in
local criminal history, will be
brought up for arrangement be-
fore Judge Hugh B. Gillespie in
the Kinds County Grand Jury
which after hearing the evidence
in the case, returned an indict-
ment for first degree murder
against the brutal slayer and or
dered him held without bond to
await trial.
In the arraignment Monday,
Nichols will be brought before the
Judge The charge and the in
dictment against him will be read.
He will then be allowed to enter
his plea. If he pleads not guilty,
the case will then be sc for trial.
If he pleads guilty the judge can
without further trial pass SEN
tenle. However, the Judbe ran
refuse to accept plea of guilty
so the case and the verdict may
be according to law and the evil
dence.
District Attorney M. NJ. Nc
Gowan has promised leading Ne
gro citizens, as we'll as others
that they would put forth every
effort to see tina Nichols gets
the full extent of the law, which
in cases of first degree murder
is death in the electric chair.
On the afternoon of Friday,
December 10th last, Mr.. Comic
left his home on East Church st.
to go about his customary bus
mess OF collecting rents, selling
and supervising the selling of
several leading Negro newspapers
and magazines, for which he was
general agent. His wife became
alarmed when he did not return
during the night. News spread
throughout the city Saturday and
Sunday and his disappearance as
police authorities took up the
search.
On the following Sunday scores
of prominent citizens joined in
search parties which secured the
surrounding county as far away
as Vicksburg, Yaoo City, Canton
and Brookhaven in search of the
missing man amid steadily mou-
nting fears that he had become
the victim OF foul play.
Over a week later on Sunday
morning, December IT, the body
was found floating in mill pond
on West Lynch Street. The body
showed five bullet holes in the
breast. Still clad, the pockets of
his cloths were turned inside out
showing that they had been rifled
after he was shot to death. The
car which he drove was also miss
ing.
A nation wide launch for the
car was launched. A few days
later it was reported found in
front of the home of sister
of Nichols in Chicago. Suspicion
was directed to Nichols, who along
with young girl companion who
he took from Jackson with him

was arrested few days later in
Chicago.
Faced with the evidence against
him, Nichols admitted the slay-
ing and waived extradition and
was brought to Jackson along with
his young girl companion to face
trial for the most brutal and SEN
sational crime in local criminal
history.

Protective Service
You Can Prevent But
Not Cure Bangs

THERE IS NO "cure" for Bangs
disease, but there is a simple method
of prevention and control through
vaccination. (See DR.. Howard
Welch's veterinary column In this
issue.)
AS DR.. WEIGH points out, it is I'M
fortunate that vaccination of herds
for prevention of Bangs disease
isn't more generally practiced, but
when it comes to cures, the u. S.
department of agriculture warns
that there is no known method or
medicine that can claim to be such.
The departments flat recommended
ton is that if any product is offered
as a cure, don't bite.
Hundreds of careful experiments
have been made with practically
every known drug, and the result has
always been the same. There is no
recognized cure 1t was long a popu-
lar conception that mixing small
amounts of carbolic acid with feed
could do the job, also that heavy
feeding of rock phosphate and other
minerals could stop the disease, but
they have been proved f~allacies.
Even testimonials that cures have
been effected by certain products
are meaningless, since in the case
of Bangs such testimonials are easy
to get. The fact is that after a COW
has lost a calf or two from the dis
ease, she may recover and seem to
be immune, but she will continue
to be a carrier.
The best advice, then, is to make
full use of approved vaccines to pre-
vent and control Bangs disease, but
stay shy of any pellets, pills OF
injections that claim to be cures.

Rural Fire Fighters
Prevent Losses

NEARLY $500, 600 in potential
losses of farm and ranch property
were saved this past year through
the efforts of the 2,144 volunteers
who belong to the Montana Rural
Fire Fighters service, George w.
Gustafson, state co-ordinator of the
service, reported.
Even So, he said, rural fire losses
in Montana last year were far too
high. There were 140 cropland and
range fires involving some 10000
acres and resulting in the loss of
$115,413 worth of grass and crops. In
addition, 40 rural homes and farm
buildings valued at $445,000 were
destroyed by fire.
But most tragic of all, Gustafson
said, was the loss of eight lives last
year in rural fires.
Of the states Sc counties, So have
set up fire control programs under
the state rural fire control law which
authorizes county commissioners to
appoint fire chiefs and district war
dens, appropriate money for the pur-
chase, operation and maintenance of
fire fighting equipment and declare
closed fire seasons.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1949-03-01

applications of D or more pounds OF
parent acid are applied to the soil
shortly before emergence of the
seedlings.
Damage in these cases was most
severe on sandy soil types where
the 2,4-D was readily leached down
to the terminating seeds or seed
lings. But pre-emergence spraying
when carefully timed and using nor
NAL amounts of 2,4-D seems to be
permissible. Hubbard warns that
more research work is needed on
pre-emergence application of chemi-
Gals and the effect on termination
before recommendations can be
made, however.
Corn is the one crop for which
the anSwers seem to be known as
far as pre-emergence spraying is
concerned. There is little doubt now
in the minds of the research men
that pre-emergence spraying in orn
with 2,4-D is quite safe. A paper
presented at the conference by F. L.
Timmons, bureau of plant industry,
USDA, cooperating with the Utah
agricultural experiment station at
Logan, further emphasizes this
point.
Timmons compared a sodium salt
o~L - 1o4o1 fo-1o,,1o+.1- @E q II
applied at from 1 to A pounds of
acid to the acre. These applications
were made one day after planting
and five days later, or just before
emergence of the sweet corn. None
of the treatments, including the
heaviest applications of 2,4-D, caused
any reduction in the stand of corn.
The heaviest rates of application
gave nearly 100 percent control of
pigweed, lambsquarter, p urslane
and other broadleaved annual weeds
during the entire season, while the
light dosages of 1 pound per acre
gave less complete, but in most
cases satisfactory control at a much
lower cost.
Pre-PIanting
Pre-planting treatments differ
from pre-emergence treatments in
that they involve application of the
chemicals before the crop is seeded
where pre- = emergence treatments
come between seeding and emer-
gence of plant life. The outlook for
successful pre-planting treatments
when not followed by supplemental
irrigation looks dark, according to
experiments reported by Lambert C.
Erickson, associate agronomist in
weed research, University of Idaho
Moscow.
The Idaho experiments were de.
signed to test the damage to seeds
Or seedlings from 2,4-D remaining
in or on the surface of the soil. Re.
suits showed that regardless O.
whether the interval before planting
was Is, 80 or As days after the chem,
ical treatment, decreases in the ger
mination of seed were always evi
dent. The tests were on planting
of alfalfa, beans, potatoes, corn ant
oats.
The reductions in termination oh
served in these tests amounted to 1
percent for potatoes, % percent fo
corn. 81 percent for oats az nercen

Work in butter with a fork. Add

a soft dough. Turn out on Toured
board and divide dough into two
parts. Pat each part, roll out and
shape into a buttered round tin.
Or, cut with biscuit cutter to make
Individual cakes. Bake IL minutes

while hot, butter and spread one
quart of cleaned and sweetened
Strawberries. Top with whipped
cream or serve plain or with thick
cream from a pitcher.
