GIRL FALLS FOUR FLOORS
CAUGHT BY ALERT WITNESS

BROOKLYN - CAMP Edith
Gardner, 4, fell from a fourth
floor window at the home Of her
aunt Agnes Williams and lived.
She was saved by a perfect catch
by Rosario Guglierio, 35, a Dodger
fan.
Attracted by shouts Of a ter
rified witness, he looked up and
saw the little girl hanging onto
the window sill at 204 Navy
Street. He dashed across the
street and reached the spot a
split second before she pummeled
downward.
Guglierio caught her in his mus
cular arms and was knocked to
the ground by the force. The child
was unframed and he merely
bruised.

RACIAL BIAS GIVES
L. s. A. BAD NAME
SAYS MRS. ROOSEVELT

POUGHKEEPSIE - CAMP -
Race tensions and prejudices in
this country are giving democracy
a bad name abroad" Mrs. Eleanor
Roosevelt told the weekend con-
ference of Christians and Jews at
Vassar college.
She said that Americans need
moral and spiritual backbone to
make democracy work. She told
her listeners that to further the
cause of community living, every
citizen of the United States must
assume a responsibility for max
ing the world a more tolerant
place in which to live.
I'VE can't allow tensions and
prejudices to ruin democracy"
she said. 1--WE can overcome this
only becoming better neighbors
here at home and showing the
rest of the world that democracy
really works"

SpauIding Cove
F0fher Credit For
His Business Rise
HIGH REACH, HIGH MARK
FROM TINE MAGAZINE

HIGH REACH, HIGH MARK
las for myself" wrote the
president Of the $35 million North
Carolina Mutual Life Insurance
Co. in 1913, regarding his tour of
IS European countries, Il shall
always feel grateful that my an
centors were transplanted to
North America. II is the best
place in the world that I have
found to live and leave ones
mark" The presidents name was
Charles Clinton Spaulding. Last
week, at the age of 70, he died in
Durham, N. c. And the mark he
left was a high mark, made with
a very long reach, for Charles
Spaulding was a Negro, the son
of slaves, born in a North Caro-
lima log cabin ten years after
emancipation.
Instead Of Charity. At 20,
Charles struck out from the farm
for Durham, because Durham had
colored school that went up to
the eighth grade. At nights he
washed dishes lat $40 a month";
in a hotel, after spending his days
in school with a classful of young
sters half his size. After "gradua-
ton" his uncle and a barber de-
cided to form the nations first
Negro life insurance company be-
cause they were fed up with the
custom of Pass the hat so we can
bury this brother" They took on
Charles as their first agent.
Selling insurance to the colored
people of North Carolina was a
matter of squeezing nickel and
dime payments from disbelieving
clients across the countryside.
Stunned by the untimely death of
an early client (six weeks after
his first payment), the owners
had to dig in their own pockets
to pay off the $40 policy. But the
payment gave them a reputation
and sent Spaulding hurrying over
to the nearest agent of the Met
ropolitan Life Insurance Co. to
learn about life expectancies.
The insurance company thrived,
especially after it began putting
ads on cuspidors and thermomet-
ers. The founders branched out
into the Mechanics and Farmers
Bank, and in the early '2Os Spauld-
ing became president of the bank
and president of the insurance
company. He built the company
into the largest Negro-staffed or
ganization in the world, and made
himself one of the wealthiest Ne
groes in the U. S., took a special
interest in helping young Negroes
start in private business. Through
it all he lived his faith in U. S.
capitalism, a Manifested faith
that survived taunts Of Negroes
who hated him for his genial CO.
operation with whites, and taunts
of whites who hated his prosper
ity.

Music In France

Have l learned any French
songs? Let me tell you, that Is
one of the most difficult things to
do in this city. Over the radio
(which has three major networks
without commercially one can
hear a symphony, or part Of one
before the thing is interrupted for
an analysis by DR.. Smootzig, a
local authority, at almost any
hour of the day.
Also. there might be a swift
change from Rachmaninoff's Sec
ond" to a Louis Armstrong rec
ord. The radio Is most unpredic-
table.
Too, the programs are not on
an hourly schedule. One may be-
gin at sos and end at 6:S9. 1
have heard relatively few pro-
grams from beginning to end.
American music and Latin
American music are the vogue
here. 1t sounds so funny to hear
"Mocking- Bird Hill" and Ghost
Riders in the Sky" with French
lyrics. They just don't seem to fit.
But the French like them.
American jazz. which is called
"ZhaasZ," is featured at many of
the night spots other than the
Bars Americans" For real I'M
diluted French music one can go
to the Bal Musettes which are
like nothing I can think of in
America. 1t is there that the lit
tie people. the real people of
france sing and dance in styles
and songs that we would call
folk" Occasionally one will hear
a Charles Trenet, or Piaf. or
Chevalier record on the radio.

called Tor a dabble in real estate
and L. B. Frazier was Just the
man for the job. He was aided in
this business venture by the late
William Crow of the Cumber-
land community, near Glenwood
Frazier and Crow got together
and had the farms or land Just
north of Caldwell surveyed into
lots with the idea of laying out a
town to house all the miners who
were expected to seek employ
ment, in the newly opened deep
mines.
Although it would not be legal
today, lottery was held in the
cid Opera house on Main street
for the purchase of these lots.
Since the lots were limited in
number, the lottery was held to
see who would be entitled to pur-
chase them.
All the $1.00 tickets were plac-
ed in bowl and the lucky ones
drawn from the stage of the old
Opera house, which now is the
home of the American Legion.
If you held a winning ticket to
one of the lots, it was yours for
the price of only $4,000.
Practically all the lots were
sold that night and those that
weren't were retained by Mr..
Frazier or Mr.. Grow.
Mr.. Frazier and Mr.. Chow each
had a daughter and both fond
fathers felt the new community
should be named after their own
pride and joy. But there was al
ready one Minerva, Ohio, so Miss
Frazier lost out and the commun-
ity was named after Florence
Crow.
That was back in the early
1900's and Florence Addition was
a thriving community until the
deep mines played out.
But it has again felt the pangS
of growth and the residents
therein want their own village,
