nTJDELANDS" OIL BILL
GETS HOUSE Committee
APPROVAL

The House Judiciary Committee
last week approved a bill giving the
states chief rights to "tideland" oil
reserves. The measure is similar to
one vetoed by President Truman last
year. 1t gives the states clear title
to oil lands within the "three-mile"
limit, or as far as the states boun-
daries extended at the time it joined
the union. This gives Texas oil re-
serves 1917 miles out.
Rep. Emanuel Celler Cd. N.Y.,
committee chairman, said the bill
"makes the US a part of Texas.
The Supreme Court has ruled the
US government has paramount
rights to off-shore oil-bearing land,
beyond the actual tidelands. Major
oil companies are working through
the states to try to gain control of
these oil resources.

RURAL PHONE FUNDS

The House Appropriations Com
mite has cut squarely in half the
authorization for rural telephone
loans and knocked down the approp-
ration for REA administrative
funds for the telephone program,
from $2,1OO,O00 to 100000.
The cut was made by the commit
tee in the omnibus bill. Chances of
restoring the funds on the House

THE COLLEGE THAT GREW
UP OVERNIGHT

The Saturday Evening Post, Nov.
5, 1949, carried and interesting arti-
Gle on Chicago's comparatively new
Roosevelt College that came into be-
ing over fight on racial discrimina-
ton
Authors Henry F. and Katherine
Pringle say, Roosevelt College has
nc campus, no fraternities in the u.s.
ual sense and no intercollegiate ath-
letlcs. But it has an idea: That
college education at moderate cost
shall be open to all races and all sects
without discrimination of any kind.
The idea, further, is that here is an
institution where both faculty and
undergraduates are to govern them
selves. The president of the college
and the deans of all the schools must
submit to vote of confidence of
the teaching staff every three years.
one Of it's most notable char
acterlstlcs is an atmosphere of lively
controversy, intellectual or political,
IN both student body nd faculty.
But there seems to be no friction
whatever among the racial and relig-
lous groups of the polyglot popula-
ton"
Roosevelt College in the heart of
Chicago, now has 5000 students.

First would appear that the Lodge proposal has been
brought forward because Mr. Lodge and his following net
Mr. Taft and his following convinced that the Republican
Party going to be large minority party in the great pivotal
industrial Mr. Lodge therefore hopes to pick up
propoonate share of the electoral votes in the big pivotal
and to win by adding to these votes the electoral votes
of the additionally Republican states in the North and the
West
Secondly Mr. Lodge expects the Democratic Party to be
plagued by large number of splinter groups such the
Dxiecrat party the liberal party the labor party and
forth is for this that his proposal requires only
per of the electoral college for election The Repub
ican Party get 40 per cnt of the popular vote.
Thirdly the Lodge proposal undoubtedly seeks to destroy
the Democratic Party The Democratic Party has become
liberal party because of the influence of the big pivotal
industrial states which have been falling into the Democratic
column AS result of this occurrence Franklin Roosevelt

Dental nomination the Democratic Party IA purely southern
requirement. Under the Lodge proposal the electoral
of the great northern states would be split but the Solid South
would continue to deliver solid Democratic vote It must
follow that the southern Democrats would again reestabh
their power the Democratic Party driving liberal and
independent groups out of it. No fortuous happening
could be envsaged by conservative Republicans.

cash his A and X of spades and
four remaining clubs, but had to
let South in to lead heart to the

Observe that the contract could
never be defeated if North took
the first trick with his heart king.
Observe also that if South made

would easily fulfill his contract.
Another point that should interest
the student is the fact that North's
ducking of the first trick could
lose nothing for his side, because
if South did not hold the entry
cards necessary to establish the
heart suit, no line of defense could
beat the contract.

first branch office of a New York
Stock Exchange member officially
opened here in the Hotel Theresa,
125th st. and Seventh Ave-, last
week following a press party at the
Hotel on Friday afternoon, with
local press representatives bust
ness executives, and many others
attending.
The stock exchange member, the
F. L. Solomon Co., of One Wall
street, has been a member OF the
Exchange for % years, and accord
ing to the manager of the new
Harlem branch office, J. o. Straus,
the decision to open such an office,
was the result of a very fine ex-
tensive study of the Negro market
which reveals that Harlem was
the only business community in
Greater New York which had
not been served by a stock ex-
change firm in the last ten years.
From information gathered by
the writer, it was learned that
many other members of the Stock
Exchange have been thinking about
opening a similar office here in
Harlem. However, their plans call
for such an office or offices to be
opened either the latter part of
this year, or early in 1851, but the
Solomon company Jumped" the
gun, and opened this spring.
The present personnel of the
branch office, in addition to Straus,
includes Abraham Cowings, custo-
mers man, Roy Saperstein, board
man, and Vivian Cooke, secretary
to the manager.
A former partner of the Sal
onion firm, Straus has been con-
nected with the Stock Exchange
many years. He retired from
business in 1888, but has again
returned to the Exchange business
to take charge of the Harlem Of
flee. He stated the two Negro
in the office, Cowings
and his secretary, are not the last
to be hired.
Among the non-press representa-
tives attending the opening on
Friday were Mrs. Fannie Robinson,
former wife of the late Bill Rob-
nson. William Brown, manager
Of the Hotel Theresa, and assistant
Morris; Mable Hart, now

Accomplishment of
the Jackson ST. Com
munitY Council Are
Enumerated
By MRS. RUTH MANGA,


The spotlight is turned on the
jackson Street Community Coun-
Gil during the month of April as
it celebrates the fourth anniversary
of its founding. Organized in 194e
by a group of community leaders
including Victoria A. Velasco, who
was then president of the Filipino
Community of Seattle and vicinity,
Robert Groves, the late Lew Kay,
Mrs. Leila Hall, Toru Sakahara and
others, the council set out to work
toward the improvement of the
area from fourth to 23rd Avenues
between jefferson and Dearborn.
Early Projects
Its early projects included pro-
motion of T. B. Chest X-Rays and
it was accepted as a red feather
agency of the Community Chest in
a cleanup campaign, after which
July of 1916. Since that time it has
been supported by the contribu-
tons Of the people of Seattle to
the Chest together with utilization
fees from its members, both or
CARNATIONS and individuals.
New Street Lights
The new mercury-vapor street
lights which have recently been
installed on Main, Jackson. King
Weller, Lane, and Dearborn Streets
from Fifth to Eighth AYES. mark
the completion of one of the first
projects undertaken by the Com
munity Council. 1t first sold the
City Council on the need for in
GLIDING certain non arterial streets
in the city-wide program of mod
ernizing the lighting on main
thorough-fares, and followed up
by working for passage of the
bond issues to finance them.
Mayor Devin Officiates
Since 1948 it has worked closely
with the Engineering Department
to make sure that this portion of
the five or six year program was
the first to be completed.
Mayor William F. Devin officially
dedicated the Jackson Street area
system on March II of this year in
a ceremony attended by represen-
tatives of the various organizations
in the community as well as men,
bers of the City Council and other
city officials.
Traffic lights on Jackson Street
at Sixth Avenue and at Maynard
Avenue have also been installed
this spring as a result of the Com
Councils activities. Christ
mas parties for all children in the
area have been held each year
since 1916, and the Council, with
the help and generosity of mer-
chants in the district, has made
and put UP street decorations dur
ng the holidays for the last two
years.
Christmas Toys for Children
Council members and their
friends collected, reconditioned, and
distributed over 400 toys last
year to families whose children
would otherwise have been for
gotten by Santa Claus. Concern
Tor the welfare of children also
prompted the Council in 1947 to |
establish a well-baby clinic as a
demonstration project. Giving free
mmunization service, advice on
nutrition and child care, and gen.
eral check-ups, the clinic was OPP
Grated by a volunteer staff of
physicians and dem
lists for 10 months, when it became
a full-fledged Child and Maternal
Health center operated by the
Seattle Public Health Department.
