Survey Group Says

Los ANGELES. July 15.-The
National Association For Bet

"Television, more than any

During the period of our 1854

Business
Despite a decrease in employ
ment, Negro business in 1858
showed a marked improvement
over 1852. National Negro Bust
ness League president Horace
Sudduth attributed this phenome-
nonto three things: the discovery
Of the Negro market, invasion OF

sis on basic needs rather than
non-essentials and Injuries.
THE Negro Is still well Off"
says Sudduth, himself a wealthy
Ohio realtor, "and Negro business
in 1858 increased in dollar gains"
Negro insurance business con-
tinued strong, Tavern receipts
were off. There were noticeable
gains in sales promotion and adj
vertising, and increased opportu-
mites in the fields Of home appli-
ances and furniture.
Housing
Although private home builders
are just becoming aware of the
vast and lucrative Negro market,
and public housing Is moving
swiftly--in some urban centers,
turbulently--toward Indignation,
1858 housing for the Negro fell
short Of both 1851 and 1852 marks.
Chief reasons were inability (be-
cause Of opposition by whites)
to find land on which to build, and
money to finance such projects.
Chicago, Denver and Boston
were hampered by land shortages,
but Chicago was able to forge
ahead Of other cities because of
the New York Life Insurance
Company's Stun clarence expert

dows project which received it's
first tenants last July.
Employment

Race Relations
Race relations between Negroes

even keel during the past year,
with surprising gains in some
areas and sudden setbacks in
others, The acute housing situa-
ton continued TO precipitate
friction and violence. notably In
Chicago. Organized hate groups

cIUul w. n. .. VI 0IdhCoDO4Os
KY: II am receiving a disability
check each month for a 10 per
cent disability. Is there a
limitation on my income to con-
tinue receiving this?"
No. AS long as your disability
continues to be 10 per cent dis
abling, you're eligible for the
payment.
From Mrs. w. H. I. Of South
Bend, Ind: MY husband is a
private in the United States
Army and is now serving in
Germany. He wants me to go
over. Can you tell me where I
can receive some information on
the cost and method Of travel?
AS you know, must pay my own
way since my husband is only a
private"
There are many coed travel
agencies which can supply you
with this information. I sug-
gest you watch the newspapers
for advertisements of such
agencies and then contact them
by letter.
From S. U. of Honolulu: Il
was discharged in 1914 with dis
ability compensation. However,
after several physical examina-
tons my compensation was COM
pletely taken away. Now, I feel
that I should be reinstated. How
can this be accomplished"
Apply at the regional Veterans
Administration Office.
From j. G. of Attleboro, Mass:
II recently was given an un-
desirable discharge after 80
months in the Navy. I received
no mustering-out pay. Am I
entitled to it?"
No. The Korean CT Bill pro-
vides that mustering-out pay
will only be paid where an
honorable discharge or separa-
ton has been given.
From L. j. B. of Elkhart, Ind:
II am now getting a nonservice
connected pension from the
Veterans Administration. i
would like to know if the pension
will be increased after I have
received it for 10 years"
Yes. The present pension
payment is $66.15 a month, but
will be increased to $78.75 after
you have been drawing it for
10 years or when you reach |
age IS.
From j. B. H. of Green Bay,
Wis: Il would like to know
what States have paid bonuses
to Korean veterans"
I don't have such a list and
the Veterans Administration
central Office doesn't have an
official list. About the only
thing I can suggest is to write
to the capitol of the State you're
interested in.
From v. A. of New York City:
"I'm Korean vet with a service
connected disability and I'm
thinking Of taking out CT in
surance policy. May ! convert
this policy later to a perma-
nent plan of OF insurance.,
There are two types of term
policies available to post-Korean
vets. One is primarily for the
nondisabled and is not con-
vertible. The other is only for
disabled and is convertible. If i
you get the latter, you may
convert it to 9 permanent plan
at any time.
From T. O. Of Oakland, Calf:
Il used to be a bookkeeper before
entered service. I've just been
released and I want to take a
course in bookkeeping under
the Korean CT bill. To brush up
on the subject. Will I be al
lowed to do SOP"
No. The law prohibits vets
from studying for detectives for
which they're already qualified.

Since this is George Wash
mgton'S Birthday, and since he is
the father of our country, this
column should take note of some
paternal words.
The word father stems from
the Anglo-Saxon, faeder. as well
as from the Danish, fader, and
the Latin, pater.
Primarily, of course, a father
is a male parent.
George Washington, as the
first President Of the United
States, holds the well-deserved
title of father of our country.
So it is with other leaders in
arts, science and government.
In every city, a group of civic
leaders usually are respectfully
termed "city fathers
Even Santa Claus is listed in
Webster's as Father Christmas. /"
And the Devil, himself. can't be
left out of the list. He is often
termed "the father Of lies"
Slang terms for father are
numerous, but ali in all. the word
father" vies with mother" for
top honors of election In English
and all languages.
