THE POLICE ATHLETIC LEAGUE

H POLICE ATHLETIC LEAGUE
RECTO EARLE CHARLES of the St. Thomas Po-
lice is to be complmented on initiating the PAL program in
the Virgin Islands. We can think of no better organization,
for it touches a vital spot in helping to direct the thinking,
attitude and activities of young boys, In New York, where
the program originated, much effort is directed in seeing that
the Police Athletic League is successful. A rounded program
is carefully planned, including indoor and outdoor games,
and at least once a year a big banquet, in which the boys
take particular pride. All of this is done with the idea that
1T is better to build boys than to mend men,"
THIS YEAR gifts will come from New York for one thou
sand school children in St. Croix, and a committee has been
appointed to help plan and put across the party. Mrs. Pearl
Byrd Larsen, superintendent of Education heads the COM
mittee. This is an excellent opportunity to instnl in the young
sters the advantages of membership in, and association with
PAL, and once this is done there should be little trouble in
holding the interest. Parents and guardians should cooperate
fully, realizing that through such an organization effective
and wholesome guidance can be given to youth, and this is
very important in the formative years.
IN ORGANIZING the PAL, the Police realized that
here wa a double-baTelled opportunity. First, to use idle
hours for wholesome activities, and to get across the idea that
the Police is an arm of the government, is really concerned
with the maintenance OF peace and order, and that a uniform
is not to be looked upon as a potential enemy of boys. And
believe it or not, the idea has worked. Carrying out the plans
here should have the same effect, and no time should be lost
in working out something permanent. The schools, through
the Department of Education, and the Junior Red Cross, may
well cooperate with the Police Athletic League, and the three
together work to guide our young people through wholesome
channels.
WE URGE THE fullest understanding and cooperation
from ALL young and old alike, for the success of the program
begun by PAL.

From Federal

TALLADEGA, Ala.-The stand
taken by the Federal Council of
Churches in opposing segregation
education has cost them the men,
bership of the First Methodist
Church of this city.
The Council has voted to file a
friend of the court brief in support
of the theory of the NAACP in the
Sweat case attacking the separate
but equal doctrine.
Gnu December 8 the Methodist
board adopted resolution pre-
scented by Tom Abernethy, editor
of the Talladega Daily Home and
Dixiecrat to repudiate the actions
of the council and to sever connec-
tons with it.
1t was seconded by Probate
Judge D. Hardy Riddle, also an
ardent Dixiecrat.
The resolution also memorialized
the North Alabama Conference to
withdraw from the Council.

Judge Refuses To
Give Ruling On
School Equality

ALEXANDRIA, Va. - Federal
Judge Albert V. Bryan dismisses
school Jim Crow suit against
Arlington County last week
brought by three negro high school
pupils.
The judge dismissed the suit,
stating that segregation in the
public function of the state" is
exclusively a state matter. He said
he found no racial discrimination
in the county school system, no
more than would occur between
any two schools. However, there
are differences between the Hoff-
man-Boston school for Negroes and
the Westinghouse school for
white.
At the same time, in a contra
dictory statement, he added that
discrimination cannot be excused
on the basis of economy or state
constitutions requiring such. Then
he followed this declaration with
the opinion that segregation is not
an issue for federal courts.

Report 1900 More
Workers On SOuths
Farms This Year

There were $4,000 more hired
workers on farms of the South
during the latter part of Novem-
Der than during the same period
year ago, says the farm labor re-
port issued last week by the Blu
reau of Agricultural Economics
of the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture.
The gain was shown in the West
South Central States - Arkansas,
Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas
where 286,000 hired workers were
employed. Cotton picking in the
region was about over, except in
the western part of Oklahoma and
Texas. The harvest of rice in the
region was well advanced, and in
South Texas, flax seeding and truck
crop operations were on schedule.
In Alabama, Kentucky, Missis-
sippi, and Tennessee, farmers were
finishing up their harvest of cot
ton and corn. Considerable farm
labor was employed in Tennessee
and Kentucky to strip and market
tobacco.

the pay is on the average about
20 shillings or SIS a month. The
