LEGION SENDS OUT S. 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.

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.
Respectfully submitted,
A. L. Holsey, Ala., Chairman «
L. G. Jordan, Tennessee ;
Miss Sadie B. Wilson, Tenn. ■
C. F. Richardson, Texas ,
