MRS. BUSCH SECURES
A LOAN PROMPTLY
Mrs. Busch of South Omana had a
money-making thought. She wanted
to buy the property next door to her
property. This took money, of course.
She read an advertisement In The
Monitor which said, “Call WEbster
7000. Take a straight loan. Get a
rest. Ask C. C. Galloway, one who
knows values. Money to loan.” Now
what happened? In four days after
she had made her application the loan
was approved for $100 more than she
h&d asked for.
Try It! Call WEbster 7000. It
might work out all right for you.
Remember C. C. Galloway has
bought over $165,000 worth of real
estate in Omaha and has borrowed
over $50,000 from loan companies. He
has been through the mill. He knows
where the rocks are. It pays to know.
Call WEbster 7000. Ask C. C. Gal

need money or want to buy a home.

TID BITS
(By Leonard Massenburge for The As
sociated Negro Press)
In Virginia about 1725 the masters
with some exceptions favored instruc
tion for slaves, and the missionaries
embraced the opportunity to instruct
them. But the introduction of the
cotton-gin in 1793 and the rise of the
slave power to supremacy from 1820
to 1860 condemned the bondman to
ignorance and provoked general jeal
ousy of Christian influence.
In 1620 a Spanish slaver visited
South Carolina; in 1526 another Span
iard brought Negro slaves into Virgin
ia; and forty years later Florida re
ceived the bane of two races. In 1619
a Dutch slave-trader imported a cargo
of Negroes into the Old Dominion
state, selling them at Jamestown.
Next year the Pilgrims landed at Ply
mouth, and an irrepressible conflict of
ideas began. It was not until about
1670 that Negro slavery gained firm
footing in this country.
Though black freedmen and white
advocates of abolition were never un
known in the south; though Negro
slaves and Saxon defenders of slav
ery existed in the north, the south
was chained to slavery, the north al
lied with freedom. From 1620 to 1865
the principles of two opposing civiliza
tions wrestled for the possession of a
virgin continent.
Emancipation occurred in remain
ing British colonies, in Portuguese and
in Spanish America after slavery had
existed there for centuries, but the
United States required only eighty
four years of independence to rid it
self of the inheritance of iniquity be
queathed by Europe.
In Florida a planter once supported
a Moravian missionary detailed for
labor among his slaves.
The gallantry of Sergeant William
Carney in the Civil War lives in the
song, dedicated to his memory, “The
Old Flag Never Touched the Ground.”
