O. S. SIGNAL AS LAST RESORT By E. W. McGowan So startling was the recent com munication from Department Com mander Jean B. Cain, revealing the relative standings of Douglas county posts, that Legion officials were com pelled to send out S. O. S. signals to delinquent legionnaires as a last resort to collect 1928 dues, before April 27th. It is quite apparent that many of our buddies have overlooked and completely disregarded this all impor tant feature of “paying dues for 1928.” You are responsible for the success of Roosevelt Post No. 30, and the immediate payment of your dues will be the greatest and most appreciative contribution toward its success. Would you permit your post to lose its prestige and power through your neglect? If you have not paid your Legion dues for 1928, by all means, pay them today. Don’t forget the next regular meet ing, to be held April 27th, at Legion headquarters. Bring a buddy with you. RETIRED BAPTIST MINISTER FOUND DEAD Rev. William Young, a retired Bap tist minister, who had been ill at his home, 1117 North Twenty-first street, for several days, died some time dur ing the night or early Thursday morning, as he was found sitting in a chair in his dining room, about noon, by Mrs. Stewart, who dropped in to see how he was. The lamp was lighted and the fire had gone out. Wednesday evening he was on his porch and told a neighbor he was feeling fine. He lived alone. His daughter, Mrs. Arthur Dunham, and her husband, who had been very at tentive to him during his illness, spending each night with him, did not go to his home Wednesday night be cause he was feeling so well and be cause of the death of Mrs. Eliza Turner, with whom the Dunhams made their home. The deceased was 65 years old and is survived by two daughters and a son. LA VIEJO BANDA La Viejo Banda met on March 30 at the residence of Mrs. Arthur Raf ferty.

' NEWSPAPER EDITORS SPEAK Quill Pu»her*, Manager* and Mem ber* of the Fourth E*tate Place Salient Fact* Before Amer ican People Louisville, Ky.— (Special) —With a ringing address to the country, touching practically every phase of American life, brimful of the burn ing facts that become realities of today, the National Negro Press as sociation has issued the following statement to the country: “We, the members of the National Negro Press association, in conven tion assembled, submit the following as our expression to the country, on matters relating to the Negro and to the progress of the country in gen eral: (1) We record the remarkable progress which has been made by the Negro press in all sections of the country, both in the technical make up of the Negro papers and the virili ty of their editorial policy. More and more the Negro press is regarded as the accepted barometer of Negro opinion and a definite influence in Negro life. (2) We record, too, our grateful appreciation to Secretary Herbert Hoover for his unflinching courage in handling Negro refugees in the flood disaster, and his most recent demonstration of genuine American ism in abolishing segregation in his department, and we call upon the president of the United States to follow the precedent set by Secretary Hoover and issue an executive order abolishing segregation in all of the departments and bureaus of our fed eral government at Washington. (3) We view with alarm the re currence of the Lily White move ment which strikes at the fundamen tal principles of the republican party and call upon all patriotic Americans of both races to stamp out this agent of injustice. (4) The unemployment of millions of Americans calls for the sober re flection and the earnest co-operation of all Americans. We record our alarm at sentiment which expresses itself in the program of the “Negro last on the first off’’ in our econom ic structure. We believe that Negro labor, of all groups in the country, can least afford to be laid off and we cannot help but feel that there is something altogether sinister in the disproportionate number of Negroes who are denied employment, thereby keeping them on the precipice of eco nomic starvation. (5) We approve the efforts of the National Negro Business league, to work out a scientific approach to the study of the Negro’s economic condi tion as represented in the survey of Negro business which is now being conducted. We record our gratitude to the United States department of commerce for the aid and assistance which it is giving to this survey and the recognition which has come to the race in the appointment of a Negro man as d’^ector of the Sec tion of Small Business Units. (6) We protest against the con tinual discrimination against the Ne gro on common carriers, including busses. We believe, as American cit izens, the Negro should be accorded absolute equality in the matter of travel. (7) We note with pride the con tinual progress which the Negro is making in education and call upon state legislatures to increase their appropriations for this purpose and to make no discriminations in the ap portionment of funds as between the races. (8) We repeat our annual con demnation of lynching and mob vio lence and hereby record our grati tude to the press, as well as other agencies that are striving for the abatement of this national evil. (9) We urge the adoption by the! government of plans looking toward rehabilitation of the flooded Missis sippi valley, building of the Boulder dam in the great southwest as well as an increase in the agricultural extension work among Negro farm ers. (10) We call upon the religious press, the ministers of the gospel and leaders of our fraternal organiza tions to co-operate with the secular press and other agencies which have for their objective the development of the economic life of the Negro. In season and out of season, we must preach the doctrine of race pride, of interest in and support of Negro en terprise, including Negro newspapers, not in the spirit of boycott but to the end that we may provide employment for our own boys and girls and insure for ourselves a permanent ar.d endur ing place in American life. (11) Inasmuch as the ballot is the effective weapon in the hands of free men for the protection of their civic, economic and social rights, we urge black Americans everywhere to reg ister and qualify as legal voters, pre pare to exercise their franchise in the states where they reside.
