whites of the South.
Reuter- in his epochal book The
American Race problem make it
clear that even during the darkest
days of slavery the Negro slaves
revolted on the average Of once
in four years. This is evidence Of
a heroism that is perhaps with
out parallel in history and the
embryonic Negro historian could
hardly do a better service to the
cause than by delving into this
fact --??-??----
matter of revolts among slaves.
It would help to clarity the notion
that southern Negroes are general
ly towards. In fact the Negro who
stays in the South and gets him
self beat up for his resistance to
opposition, is far Drawer than the
Negro who 'gnashes the teeth" at
some safe distance. If the heroisms
Of the Negroes who have died for
their rights could be written the
world would have sagas for the
ages.
This. release is designed primari-
ly as a tribute tothe Negro press.
1t can hardly be expected that the
average Negro would stop and
consider what a function the Ne
gro press fills in the races fight
for deliverance. Only the lack Of
such organ of expression would
shock us into a deeper apprecia-
ton of the real worth of the Ne
gro press as a medium of racial
salvation. It is generally agreed
that theoutlook in race relations
is greatly improved in spite of
what is taking place in the deep
South. The resurgence Of the ku-
klux khan and the concomitant
lawlessness, are temporary mat
tiers which will be corrected in due
course and when once corrected
they will not recur. The forces of
civilization in the NATION and the
South are too strong to be much
longer thwarted by the reactionary
South. The battle to sternaliZe the
Negroes subjugation in the South
is already lost and our full liberia
ton is only a matter of time in
spite of all the Dixiecrats and
their Thurmonds and Talmadges
may say. The tide Of civilization
is too strong for the undertow OF
reaction now being felt in the
South.
The Negro press has kept alive
and accelerated the resistance
movement which was felt through
out slavery. While the slaves coule
net resist with their bodies they
did resist with their souls and i
is no wonder that when theil
shackles were finally struck of
the sang joyously "Free At Last"

Deofh Ends Career Of Mrs. Emma HodIeY

A historical era, the pioneering age, an age-old institution, and the name Dutch Emma" prob ably better known than that of. Seward itself, ended Monday, Dec. Is, with the death of Mrs. Emma Marie Hadley.
 Born in Germany, Dec. g, 1881, Mrs. Hadley would have been 69 years old on the Friday following her death. She was the sort of person, often found in Alaska, of whom everybody knows, yet no- body knows much about.
 It is known that she had been. in business for more than 20 years, that early histories of the Yukon gold rush mentioned her by a diff ferent name. She lived for some time in Fairbanks and was on the scene at the beginning of the rail road camp called Anchorage. It is said of her that she was gen. erous, would help out anybody who vas in need or in a tight spot" that she was a ShreWd bar gainer and a smart financier.
 Mrs. Hadley's estate has been estimated to be from $40,000 to S50,000, but the will has not been found.

automobile body.
1--WE took it reluctantly because
my father, who was in Europe at the
time, wasn't too keen on motor bug
gies," Jim Derham points out. THE
job was for a closed body-in warm
weather we had to put the open one
on again. At any rate, it got us

bodies may take up to year.
The company's constant fear is a
mix-up of orders. This happened
once. Closed limousine bodies had
been built for two entirely separate,
but equally fearful, Main Line
dowagers. The ladies used open
bodies for summer driving. The
closed ones were put back in the
fall. Both cars were alike, except for
the upholstery.
Early one October, Mrs. Altar
dyce ordered Derham to remove the
open body on her Car and install the
closed one, stored in the plant all
summer. She expected the change to
be made before she got back from
holiday in Europe. Pierre. her
chauffeur. drove the car home. He
didn't notice anything different.
"A little later, Mrs. Snerd- Jones
sent her car in to be converted. Fogg.
her chauffeur, called for the car and
everything looked the same to him,
too. Next day, however, while driv-
ing her down her long driveway, he
ducked at a sudden loud banging on
the partition glass.
Stop this Instant" the lady
screamed into the speaking tube.
This isn't my carl" Fogg gulped.
Her car had black upholstery;
the one she was in had brown,
and there was strange perfume
in the vanity case. Fogg drove to
Derham's.
The trick" laughs Jim Derham,
was to find her body. 1t wasn't in
the storeroom, so in looking over
our records we decided it must be on

kind of building in tiny shopping
section of Rosemont.
An easy way to sum up the plant
is to imagine the quiet. unhurried
pace of Chippendale's shop in the
eighteenth century. Derham's 40
employees are often more than
craftsmen. They are old-world arti-
sans who work, seemingly for the
love of it, in aluminium, the main
body metal; in solid mahogany and
walnut and broadcloth.
The newest man on the payroll
was hired 20 yearsago. We're grow

cheerfully.

1--WE worked fast, and she never
knew what happened. And it's a
good thing - what a terror she

The company has never been
stumped, but it once refused an
order. 1t turned down Mickey
Duffy, a big shot in bootleg liquor
and a power in politics during the
prohibition era. Duffy had asked
Derham to bulletproof his Duesen-
berg. The brothers thought about it.
What if a bullet goes through,

well as installing built-in bars and
refreshment cabinets.

DERHAM regularly gets orders for
what it calls sample jobs. These
come from leading Detroit plants,
which ship down their newer models
and tell the company to try out any
styling ideas it likes. A sample may
cost as much as $4,000.

BULLETIN: NOME LOCAL ROADS

Sunset Road has been opened as far as the Snake River Bridge and the Osborne Road is in the process of being opened. Both roads are wet and muddy and are closed to all traffic until further notice.
 Nome-Solomon Road is in good condition and open for travel as far as Mile l3. However, the Nome sea wall contractor has started hauling rock and at the same time repairing the road. While these repairs are going on the public and the Army are asked to limit their travel and to cooperate with the contractor by obeying the signs placed for their protection. Caution will be required at all times.
 Continued cooperation on the part of the public and the Army in staying off the roads until thor oughly dry, will result in having good roads for the balance of the season.
