Last week we told you how
some furniture and appliance
stores operate in our neighbor-
hood. Today, we want to explain
little about small loan laws in
the State of Florida. There are a
few loan companies who violate
these laws and have caused a
hardship on our people. Stay
away from these companies.
We must remind you that loan
companies have their advantages
if they are operated according to
the state laws.
When you need money make
sure that you 60 to a reliable
company. Ask your friends or a
relative who they would recon-
mend. When you borrow, get just
what you need and make certain
you can pay it back promptly.
Protect your credit which is very
important in the future.
Now, to give you four different
ways these few loan companies
violate the state small loan laws
and legally they cannot collect
from you.
/. Did you know that all loan
papers must be signed in the loan
office? If you have signed them
outside of the office it is against
the law. If you have signed loan
papers in a furniture or appliance
store it is also against the small
loan law. This is the method
used by some companies in our
neighborhood.
2. Did you know that if you are
married the loan company must
have both husband and wife's
signature on furniture loans be-
fore it is legal?
3. Did you know that all loan
papers must be filled in COM
pletely and correctly before you
sign? The loan company is vio-
lating the state law if they have
you sign blank papers. (For your
own protection never sign blank
papers.)

have more than one loan in the

ATLANTIC CITY - Elkdom
came here last week and with
machine-like precision its new
chieftian, handsome six foot,
four inch Grand Exalted Ruler
Robert H. johnson of Philadel-
phia ran it thru its PAGES and won
his case to take the nations big
gest fraternal order into the
South next year. Atlanta Ga. gets
the 54th annual Elks Grand
Lodge.
Important business transacted
included the election of Mr..
johnson over two candidates who
had previously offered but with
drew at the Grand Lodge. A
minor tempest took place before
the withdrawal of Herbert E.
Jones of Washington, DC, but
was settled when Jones took
himself out of the race.
Congressman William L. Daw-
son d., Ill., was politely CEN
sured on Thursday afternoon
when he made a political speech
after having been briefed against
doing so by Elk leaders.
Declaring themselves firmly
behind a compulsory FEPC, the
Elks flung that highly controver-
sial issue squarely into the laps
of both Presidential candidates.
Neither General Eisenhower nor
Governor Adlai Stevenson came
to the convention, though both
were invited. There were no po-
litical overtoneS to this Grand
Lodge, except that injected by
Congressman Dawson.
A full-fledged fight for Civil
Rights is to be launched by the
Elks with the IBPOEW Civil
Liberties Department operating
on a full-time basis. Demanded
in the resolutions were: Federal
FEPC on a compulsory scale;
anti-poll tax laws; establishment
of a Federal Civil Rights Com
mission, and the complete end Of
segregation in the armed forces.
The end of segregation in Wash
ington, DC. was called for.
Grand Exalted Ruler Johnson
was given a $4,000 year salary
increase by the order.
Grand Secretary William c.
Hueston, reelected for one-year
term, was given an assistant
grand secretary, James T. Cooper
Of Chicago. Judge Hueston's re-
port on the finances of the order
showed the net worth of the Elks'
Grand Lodge to be $452, ,665.98.
Of this sum, $283, 1882 is in cash
and US. bonds.

Stress was laid on the Elks'
Department of Education, still
headed by Lieut.. George w. Lee
of Memphis, Tenn, who announc-
ed that the Ford Fund for Adult
Education had agreed to support
the Elks' adult education program
aimed at illiteracy among adult
Negroes.
DR.. G.. w. c. Browne of Nor
folk, Va. - one of the nations
top experts in adult education -
will direct this program which
calls for the setting UP of expert
mental schools for adults in seven
cities. Passage of an Elk-spon-
sored bill now before Congress
will implement this program with
Federal aid and make it available
also to whites.
Edward Robinson of Gary,
Ind, a senior at Froebel High
School there, won the national
Elks oratorical contest. James H.
Latimer of Tulsa, Okla. placed
second.
At the oratorical contest, T. j.
Sellers of Charlottesville, Va. read
a prepared statement from DR..

N. Y. Age Observes
72nd Anniversary

NEW YORK - (GlobaD-The
New York Age, one of the Oldest
Negro newspapers in America,
celebrated its 72nd Anniversary
last week with a three-day open
house and other activities includ-
ing radio broadcast over station
WLIB on Friday morning, Aug
ust %.
Arnold DeMille, general man
ager of the Age, in a statement
over the radio in answer to a
question by the announcer, said of
the Ages plans for the future,
"They embrace a wide commun-
ity program the details of which
would require too much time to
relate now. However," he said,
'Ewhat we propose to do might
easily be understood if I told you
something about the philosophy OF
the Age. It can best be summed
up in a statement by Mr.. John n.
SengStacke which appeared in the
first edition of the Age published
under his management, May 10,
1852: NO newspaper can long sur
vive without the confidence of the
people, their interest and en-
couragement.' Significantly, he
added, This confidence must be
earned, and to be kept, it must be
deserved We at the Age fully
recognize our responsibility to the
welfare of the total community as
well as to that of the group we
serve. The response to our efforts
since the Chicago Defender inter-
ests acquired the Age gives ample
proof that we are fast winning
public confidence"
In relating something OF the
history of the New York Age, Mr..
DeMille recalled that the paper
was established in 1880 and has
had a colorful and distinguished
career under the leadership Of
equally colorful and distinguished
editors. Among them have been
T. Thomas Fortune, Booker T.
Washington, DR.. Robert r. Motion,
Fred r. Moore and Lester A. Wal
ton. Mr.. DeMille pointed out that
as was the case with most early
journals, the editor of the 18th
century New York Age was the
dominant figure, and the editor
ials did not have mass circulation
as we know it now. However,
when Mr.. Moore took over the
control of the Age he adopted
policy of playing up" news and
feature articles, giving much
prominence to theatricals, sports,
religion and politics as means of
creating mass appeal and Of ex-
panding the newspapers circula-
ton.
During the three-day celebra-
ton, hundreds of WellWiShers
made a tour of the newly deco
rated, air-conditioned offices Of
the Age at Is West 125th st. and
messages of congratulations
poured in from all over the coun-
try to Publisher SengStacke and
Editor -in-Chief Louis E. Martin.
The New York Age, which is a
part of the Chicago Defender
chain of newspapers, is the fast
est growing newspaper in the
country. Commenting on the pro-
gress of the newspaper since it
was taken over by the Chicago
Defender group, Mr.. Martin said,
