The most exhaustive endurance test
ever given an automobile has just
been completed by two stock 81
Fords-identical in every respect
with cars now being offered by Ford
Dealers.
Under the supervision of the United
States Auto Club and the Fedora
ton Internationale de Automobile,
each of these two 81 FordS travelled
$4,000 miles in less than 20 days.
Ford No. l averaged l0S.I6 mph for
the entire run . Ford No. 2, over
10Y mph. These averages include
time for all pit stops.
In all, the 81 Ford smashed 45S
national and international records.
This test was run on the Bonneville
Salt Flats in Utah :. it was the
longest left turn in history.

An announcement of decisive Importance
to anyone about to buy new automobile

A car, like man, is known by its deeds,
not tUOrdS.
That is why, we at Ford, despite our con-
fidence in our 81 cars, let their deeds of
accomplishment speak for themselves.
Therefore, we engaged an independent
engineering organization to test our 81
cars more thoroughly than any other
cars have ever been tested before - in
this country or abroad.
We provided them with ST FordS-carS
identical with those now offered by Ford
Dealers. The rest we left up to them.
Here is tohat they did;
They took these cars to the Salt Flats at

crew. In the fight that followed
the pirates did not conduct them
selves with the courage and hardi-
hood generally attributed to the
men of their calling. In fact, if
legend speaks truly, they showed
themselves below decks. All, that
is, but Anne Bonney and her COM
panion lady pirate, Mary Read.
They, all accounts agree, founght
gallantly.
By very force of numbers, Anne
and Mary were soon overwhelmed
and captured. The pirates were
taken to Jamaica and tried for pi-
racy at st. Jago de la Vega. They
were convicted on November %,
1920.
Anne pleaded to have her execu-
ton postponed for once again ma
ture was reminding her that she
was a woman before she was a
pirate. Her plea was granted.
On the day that Captain Rackam
was to hang he obtained permits
sion to have her visit him. Even
in this somber interview her DOM
inant characteristics seem to have
asserted themselves, for her fare
well words to him were that "she
was sorry to see him there, but
if he had fought like a man, he
need not have been hanged like
a dog"
1t appears that she was never
hanged but what her intimate fate
was is not known.

SAYS TEACH YOUR CHILDREN
HOW TO STAY SAFELY ALIVE

Raleigh.-"Parents, teach your
children how to stay safe in traf-
fic!"
That was Highway Patrol Major
w. B. Lentz's advice to parents
who are concerned about the child
pedestrian death toll. The major
made the suggestion this week as
he discussed yarents' responsibility
in the child pedestrian program
being conducted the year around
by the State Highway Patrol.
Last year, Major Lentz said, 75
youngsters under ID fell victim to
traffic.
parents probably have the
prime responsibility for their chill
dren's safety because they have
the care of the youngsters in their
most formative years." Major
Lentz said. ''Long before a child
reaches school age he has been out
in traffic with his parents, and
the kind of safety training they
have given him will greatly affect
his traffic attitudes"
In discussing the child's early
training, the patrol executive said
that example is of great import
ance. A child is likely to do what
he sees his parents do even if it
conflicts with what the parents
teach. Mothers and dads who cross
streets only at intersections, wait
for the signal light and look both
ways for turning cars teach a
lasting safety lesson, he said.
Major Lentz also stressed the
necessity for full cooperation be-
tween parents, schools and traffic
officials in teaching safe traffic
habits to children of school age.
He advised parents to find out
what the school is teaching the
children and then to see that the
instruction in the home supple
ments the school training.
BE careful of your children
when they're at play, too" Major
Lentz said. "See that they frolic
only in approved play areas-not
in the street-and teach them how
to use roller skates, tricycles, BIZ
cycles, scooters and other outdoor
toys safely. Above all, impress
them with the fact that safety
rules must be given the same re-
spect and obedience as other rules
of conduct learned at school and
in the home"

Anne Bonney. Pirate Woman of Carolina
Rv TLEpEcA TLNAIAc
By THERESA THOMAS

fused to play the "good and duti-
full daughter" She fell in love
with a handsome, rakish, devil
may-care sailor and married him
secretly.
The pair hoped that once the
marriage was an accomplished
fact, Anne's father would accept
it with good grace, but once again
the similarity of character between
father and daughter was evident.
Her father did nothing of the sort;
instead he became furious, ragged
and threatened and finally ended
the interview by turning them both
out of the house. This was not
what the sailor had bargained for,
and soon he was sure she would
inherit nothing. He disappeared
and was never heard of again.
Anne, being what she was, lost
no time in mourning his departure,
and soon found consolation else
where. She fell in love with the
handsome, rich, daredevil pirate,
Capt. Jack Rackam, known up and
down the coast as "Calico jack.
This picturesque lover swept her
off her feet, and from all accounts
Anne was not too difficult to
sweep, and agreed to sail with him
disguised in sailors clothes.
All her wearing of mems clothes
couldn't fool old mother nature and
after time it was necessary that
Anne be put ashore. Captain
Rackam sailed to Cuba and landed
her at a small cove where he had
a house and friends to look after
her. But it was not too long before
Anne was back aboard the ship
welding cutlass and marlinspike
with the best of them. Legend
states that when a prize was
boarded, Anne was always the first
to set foot on the victims deck.
Also on board Captain Rackam's
ship was another woman wearing
mems attire, although even Cap
tain Rackam nor any of the crew
suspected it until the secret was
discovered by Anne. This woman
was Mary Read, whose life was as
dramatic as Anne's.
The days of pirating were al
most over for Captain Rackam,
for while cruising near Jamaica in
October, 1920, the pirates were
surprised by an armed sloop that
had been sent out by the Governor
of the island for the express pur-
pose of capturing Rackam and his

We can hardly call the pirate,
Anne Bonney, lady, but she was
surrounded by legends and her ad-
ventures have a place in the early
lore of our state. She frequented
our coast with her consort, Cap
tain Jack Rackam, and helped scut-
tie many ship and kill many a
man in our waters.
Anne was born in County Cork
in Ireland. Her father was an at
torney and her mother was his
wife's maid. The scandal springing
from Anne's birth and other things
gradually lost him his practice and
he was forced to turn elsewhere
for a living. In those days the
colony offered position and afflu-
ence to adventures who could
never hope for similar advantages
at home and it was to the Colony
of Carolina he turned his eyes. AL
though practically penniless, he
sailed to the new world and with
him came his small daughter,
Anne.
By what means he achieved his
prosperity is not known, but in a
short time he was the possessor of
rich and thriving plantation. 1t
seems logical to suppose that some
of the characteristics that later
made his daughter a pirate helped
him to secure wealth.
An Anne grew up she began to
keep house for her father and was
said to be a "good and dutiful
daughter" Of course, she same
source that calls her a "good and
dutiful daughter" also goes on to
mention that she grew up into
"strapping, boisterous girl of
fierce and courageous temper"
This temper led her even in her
tender years into many and varied
-scrapes not the least of which was
the killing of her English serving
maid with "a case knife.
It isn't hard to imagine that the
life of a lady on colonial planta-
ton would grow dull for one of
Anne's temperament and pro-
.clivities and she soon began
to look about her at the
young men. Authorities agree
she was handsome and that
those young men found her attrac-
tive. Her father also began to look
about for a suitable husband for
his temperamental and stormy
daughter. But once again Anne re-

humblest impoverished Negro in
his heart feels that the superiority
which the white man holds in
matters economic, social and po-
litical is not based upon race but
upon circumstances. Why should
me Negro feel inferior with the
daily press revealing that no fed
of crime and degradation is for
eign to the white man and that
there are no depths of sin and de-
graduation where the humbleSt Ne
gro finds himself that is not
peopled with whites and Negroes
.llKe. At the upper and lower
levels of human existence white
and Negroes are pretty much alike
and hence there is no need to as
sumo white superiority and Ne
gro inferiority. AT any rate seq
regation has failed to generate the
superior feeling" in whites and
the inferior feelings" in Negroes.
1t has thus failed in one of its
fundamental assumptions.
Segregation has failed! 1t has
failed to make the Negro afraid vi
the white man. The late Mary Nc
Leod Bethune said in one of her
-ech~s Lnat whereas there might
have been a little rabbit in Ne
groes prior to World War /, that
WAS took most of it away; but
World War ii took away the last
vestige of rabbit that was in the
Negro. This was another way of
saying Negroes are not afraid OF
whites, it has failed ingloriously.
What is currently happening in
Alabama proves the point in
question. Segregation has failed.
It has failed to hold the Negro
down.

SEGREGATION HAS FAILED

Segregation has failed! For
over half a century, the forces of
segregation have been active, and
the spirit of segregation has been
TO the Southern White man an OBJ
session that at times carried him
to pathetic extremes. Entirely too
much Of the SGuth's energies have
gone into a studied attemSt to de-
grade, discourage and disparage
the Negro. Today we are in a
death grapple with Russia, in the
mad race for world supremacy.
Whereas Russia is united in its
efforts, we are divided I'm ours. In
this country there is being made a
serious attempt to overmatch
Russia, as it were, with one hand,
and hold the Negro down with the
other, our newspapers are sound
ing a grave warning that in the
field of science, Russia is out
stripping us in the important area
of producing scientists for tomor-
row. From the statistics produced
there seems to be the .graveSt
probability that by 1860 Russia
will have wrested from us scien-
tific leadership of which we boast
today.
This is a serious matter, and
becomes more serious when the
Southern states are in open re-
bellion against the law of h
land by reason of their defiance of
the ruling of the Supreme Court.
United we stand but divided we
fall. We are divided into { w o
groups. the Southern States and
the United States; and just
whether we can handle Russia in
such divided state, remains to be
seen. 1t is the earnest prayer of
this column that we may be able
to maintain world supremacy, in
spite of our current state of dis
union.
OF course there are certain ele-
ments of the Old South who would
rather see Russia in charge of the
world than to see the Negro
liberated; but here is hoping that
there is not Negro in all these
United States who would under
any circumstance, wish to see
Russia the greatest power in tho
Twentieth Century world.
Segregation has failed. II has
failed to reaSSure the white man
and it has failed to COVER the
Negro. The Negro is standing
where he has stood these four
score years, knocking at the door
of firSt-class citizenship. What is
more, he is knocking with greater
insistence. Not with standing seq
regation as a device for streng n
ening his racial egos the white man
seems still in doubt about his
superiority. If segregation fails to
establish without and beyond
reasonable doubt in the mind of
the white man his own superiority,
then it has failed in one of its
most vital points.
Segregation has failed to thus
establish to his own satisfaction
the white mans superiority. Seq
regation has failed to establish fn
the heart and mind of the Negro
race feeling of inferiority. The

WEAVER SAYS
ABOUT SOCIAL SECURITY /.

There has been a lot Of con-
fusion about the necessity Of re-
porting wages paid 10 domestic
help around the home. This was
caused by an unfortunate wording
of an article released by the wire
services which referred only TO
the Withholding of income tax
from such wages.
It has no reference whatever to
deductions from and the report
porting of such wageS-for Social
Security purposes. They remain
the same as for 1855.
Any person employing domestic
help in and around the home and
who pays such workers as mus
as $50 or more in calendar
quarter ($100 in a year when EN-
ployed in a farm household) must
report and pay the tax to the Di-
rector of Internal Revenue during
the first month following the end
of the quarter. Thus wages paid
during Jauary, February and
March must be reported on or be-
fore April 30th. The tax is 40 of
the total wages paid-29o may be

Yes, that morning there were
prayers and the Sabbath Torah
reading and the stirring voices of
the choir, but the hour in which
it was all silence in the temple
was one never to be forgotten
the new young rabbis, one by one
on the altar to be dedicated by
their teacher. He was giving them
directions on the way to go from
there, in whispered voice that
none other in the temple could
hear. Not a sound audible in the
temple. The silence was grand be-
yond any sermon I'd ever heard.
Their teacher was DR.. Nelson
Glueck. renowned archaeologist
and president of the Hebrew
Union College (Reform) from
which these young men were
being graduated into the rabbi
nate. He himself had been or
dained by this college.
He placed his hands on the
shoulders of each candidate, spoke
the whispered words, shook hands
and away the new rabbi went
