Every facet of our life, regard

He pointed out that "the build

highways, the passage Of numer-
Gus laws, the taxes we pay, the
welfare of men, women and chill
dren, are all important considera-
tons in the development of gov
ernmental operations"
And our voting power is the
first direct connection we have
with government and its political
manifestations, he added.
The New York politician stated
that, on the other hand, "those
who represent US in government,
in every division of it's meaning,
must be alert to the needs of the
citizens. Any public official
who finds himself believing he is
no longer in partnership with the

that one day he would be chief

But no victory in human rela-

the use of a magician's wand, he
stated, He asserted it takes a
pioneering spirit which involves
entering various levels of educa-
ton and ability to come face to

picking situations which often are
meant to discourage certain neigh
bors from feeling equal with the

ginning to crumble in the very

ination has flourished far too long,

full recognition" he warned, how
ever, 1--WE must be ready for that
recognition and be prepared by
training, education and active par
ticipation to understand and carry
out the responsibilities which will
fall upon our shoulders"
Jack told how he worked in a
factory to support his family when
he first came to New York, and
at the same time studied at New
York University at night.
Even then he said he would dis
cuss and debate the issues of the
day with his fellow students and
always on a very high, idealistic
plane. Now his office staff is
composed of some 1900 people
who are maintained under an an
nual budget of almost $4,000, 900.
1t takes years of heartbreak and
Illustration before the level Of ma
ture understanding and ultimate
success can be reached, he said.
But "when the objective is finally
attained, there is the priceless sat
isfaction that you have served the
best interest of your neighbors
and consequently have raised the
practical activity of human rela-
tionship to a higher plane"
Pointing out that 81 per cent of
the people who elected him to his
present post were not members OF
his race, Jack emphasized that
"this is a dynamic example Of true
democracy at work"
at is no wonder l am grateful
to this land of opportunity, to the
people who have given me their
confidence, and to Almighty God
for the blessings he has bestowed

Praise For
Work With K. j.

ally famous mezzo-contralto Eta
Motion has reaped a harvest of
critical acclaim, following her re-
cent University of Kansas-spon-
sored tour of this state, Oklahoma,
and Missouri. Miss Moten was
hailed by critics and audiences
alike on her tri-state tour in which
she gave programs combining her
talents as singer, actress and pub
lie speaker.
She was one of the featured art
lists on concert series sponsored
by the University of Kansas in it's
program Of bringing top-flight
artists to some Of the smaller
towns in the Kansas area.
Speaking Of Miss Moten's work
Guy Y. Keller, director of the Uni
versity Of Kansas Bureau Of Lee
lures and Concert Artists told re-
porters:
ITO say that Eta Moten's work
for the University Of Kansas this
fall was satisfactory is to put it
far too mildly. Each of the COM
munities in which Mis- Moten has
appeared has been thrilled with
her presentation both as a lecturer
and as a singer.
81 do not recall that in the 80
years / have been with the univer-
sity having received any more en-
thusiastic comments for any in
dividual or group than we have had
on Miss Moten's work this fall"
Miss Moten is terrific! She is
the best entertainer to come to this
town in 10 years. Her presentation
is simply a jewel of perfection,
She had to rise and acknowledge
the ovation she got when she fin
ished," said Scott.
w. o. Cralle, assembly chairman
at Southwest Missouri State col
lege, asserted that Eta Moten did
the most tremendous job ! have
ever seen done on this campus and
amid considerable difficulties. The
students thought they were being
entertained and they were.
Miss Moten's current offering is
which is proving extremely popu-
lar. She has already been signed
by the University of Kansas for a
1866 fall series. She did 80 con-
certs in Kansas, Missouri and Okla
homa for the unworthy this past
fall, many of them in areas where
there were no colored residents.

African earnings have multiplied
10 times in the past 20 years, a re-
suit of the expanding secondary in
dustry in the Union Of South AZ
RIGA and central Africa, where the
African has been able to learn
semi-skilled work and so increase
his earnings and buying power.
Earnings Estimated
1t is estimated that there are
100000 Africans employed in Sec
ondary industry throughout the
Union and the Central African Fed
Grafton. Their exact earnings are
not known, but a conservative es-
innate places the figure at L co.
100000 (S16s,0o0,0O0). This does
not include mineworkers. The net
annual income of Africans in the
Union and the federated territories
amounts to about L 350,000,000, of
which approximately L 250,0oO,-
900 is available to spend on con-
