BASS CATCH GOOD

Record and near-record catches
of channel bass in the first two
weeks at Oregon Inlet and in the
other waters of Dare have become
commonplace. One 57-pounder has
been hauled in and many others
of above IS pounds have been
caught. With continued good fish

the most satisfactory for fisher

INDICTED

NEW YoRK-They cali Louis
Taylor, 38, of S14 E. 163rd ST.,
''Mr. Big of Harlem Rackets" be-
cause he peddled only the purest
and most expensive of the dope,
heroin. According to Asst. U. S.
Attorney, Jales E. Branigan Jr.,
Taylor and his four henchmen
sold the heroin for $50 an ounce.
This is $25 $50 higher than the
usual price. Taylor boasted that
his syndicate could fill large
orders on short notice. Thus, it is
assumed that he was either i'm
porter or closely associated with
the smugglers.
This week Taylor and his
henchmen were reindicted by a
federal grand jury. They had
been named in a one-cent con-
spiracy indictment for the State

CNS-This column was sur
prised that the National Negro
Business League" at its recent
convention, did not show itself
both enterprising and progress
sive enough to let down its
odious, decadent and segregated
word Negro" in its name; and
so reflx its name as to indicate
that its doors in spirit and deed
are open to all reputable busi-
ness people regardless Of race or
nationality.
The action Of that organiza-
tion in hanging on to the word
''Negro" in its title, allegeGiy led
on by one Mr.. Clay Of Tennessee
