Adams) (The Literary Service Bureau) A girl of fifteen asked, “Why should I be so careful of my conduct because I am a preacher’s daughter? Why must a preacher's daughter be differ ent? Why can’t I live my life as I choose, as any other girl?” She was reminded that because, ordinarily, a I preacher’s child has better opportunity ; for esthical and religious development, j the world has the right to expect su I perior conduct. j There is in mind the case of two in corrigible daughters of an unfortu • nate minister. Sometimes when he is I preaching, on Sunday evening, they are at a party, dancing or playing cards. They go out without permis sion and get in all times of the night. They do want to attend church ser ! vices, and when they do go they are disturbing elements. At home they are boisterous, irritable, ill-manered, I and will smoke cigarets in their fath er’s house. These girls are demanding. They want the best available, care nothing for economy, and of course they do not realize that they are consuming what their parents will need in their old age. Perhaps the very saddest part of the whole tragic affair is that they have caused trouble (between their parents and destroyed harmony in the home. Each parent checks up these errancies to the neglect of the other, and there is constant ill-feeling and confusion. The conduct of these girls subjects their parents to criticism and their Bohemianism is greatly hindering their father. He is embarrassed when he must mention any miscon duct of other young people, because he knows that in all probability peo ple are thinking of his own children. He has not the coruage to oppose worldliness among his members, be cause of the reckless conduct of his own children. In a study of this case one has difficulty in deciding who are most to be pitied, these parents who are being mistreated or the children who ultimately and inevitably suffer for their sin against their unfortunate parents. SOME WIVES AND OTHERS ((By Mr. "X”) “Telling Her Guts” (Next week: “These Husbands of Ours” by Madam “X”) (The Literary Service Bureau) It was not an elegant expression but it was justifiable and provoked, when a man cautioned his wife, “Well, wait September 27th, 1932 The Omaha Guide, Omaha, Nebr. Dear Sirs: I read with great interest all of your emancipation number and was delighted with it. It strikes me that you have here a real newspaper de voted to the interests of the Colored folks and through which a great deal is going to be accomplished. I like your program. It is a progressive one, and a constant effort on your part to reach the goals which you have set out to do will result in great good for the community. I commend you on your fine jour nalism. Yours sincerely, ARTHUR C. THOMSEN Presiding Judge I I a while; don’t tell your guts!” This woman was talking and didn’t know ' | when or where to stop. She had I talked of family affairs, their income, i their expenses, her husband’s faults and the children’s weaknesses, then started on family history. She began, “You see, my husband’s family was not just on a level with mine, and.....” Then her husband used the expression “Don’t tell your guts;” but she had 1 almost told them, before he stopped her. Such a course on the part of a wife will merit and receive ridicule and condemnation, even from those who listen curiously—and sneer. Why will women do these things, Well, ask them; and then you will not be any wiser, for they don’t know why. --—— Federal Home Loan Bill (continued from last week) United States in lieu of the deposit of substitute or additional home loan mortgages.

Dear Sir; After nine years as a regular citi zen of Omaha, I have paid yearly ap proximately speaking, a minimum sum of $400.00 to $1500.00 for taxes, and during this period of nine years a total of from $3600.00 to $13^500.00. Being a public man called into hun dreds of Colored homes located in dif ferent parts of the city, I find all of same tax payers, and the majority having children of school age. There are large numbers of Omaha High school and Nebraska University grad uates or some other institution with A. B. or B. S. degrees; a few having Master s degrees, who upon returning to Omaha, their home, are compelled to seek elsewhere for employment, or obtain- whatever they can regardless if same is far below their ability and learning in order to make an honest living. Omaha is represented with a Col ored population of 11,857, and the ma jority of same have been constantly Paying taxes, with very little consid eration in proportion to the amount they spend. Several years ago, con sideration was given our people re garding employment of Omaha’s teaching staff, and as janitors, but it was not lasting, and even then not in proportion to the amount of money that we spend yearly for taxes This situation was not given ser ious thought, or noticed so greatly until the depression came upon us, and then an investigation was made of the different businesses and places that we constantly support and are not given our pro rata regarding em ployment. From observation I find we are placed at the bottom of the list regarding the proper consideration. If every citizen of Omaha regardless of color, was given the proper con sideration and a fair chance, our city would be a better place in which to l>ve, and there would be more intelli gence and harmony among races It would be an inspiration to our young er generation, an aid in the molding of their lives, and in helping more of them seek and strive for a higher edu cation m the different professions and businesses, as they will have an ideal or something for which to look for ward. There seems to be shown in the School Board, as well as other places prejudice and selfishness, which does not enable boys and girls to be by each other as they are when small; studying and playing in the schools, class rooms and play-grounds with out discord, but after reaching adult life, a sudden change is brought about. If such differences did not exist, our younger students who finish their education at home would be given the same consideration as extended to others Our pupils who have prepared themselves for their life’s work re ceive little or no encouragement in the form of employment after finishing Nebraska’s High Schools and Colleges yet their parents are also tax payers. eh eve I am appealing to real Christian gentlemen, endowed with ability and wisdom, able to interpret and realize the vast differences that have been existing for any number of years regarding employment of our qualified teachers on Omaha’s School Board. In order to accomplish any situation, there must be opportunities. As long as we are citizens paying the same amount for taxation as others some consideration in the form of employment that is lasting is due us. Our race has developed through centuries of isolation, hardships and struggles. Today through all of these oppositions we have to our credit var ious businesses, industries and gigan ic holdings. I am sure it has been proven any number of times we are also endowed with an equal amount of intelligence, forethought and efficiency as found in any other race. As Omaha is the city in which we live and make our homes; the place where we are constantly spending our money, the same chance should be giv en to our graduate students seeking employment as given to others. Such conditions as exist in the city of Oma ha are becoming a destruction to fut ure and higher developments for our younger generation, as they are con stantly being denied opportunities and pushed back. No race can live alone in this world; that which effects any part of this city, likewise effects us; having to share in whatever befalls. We are due our pro rata or consideration in every enterprise we constantly help to support. If conditions were re versed for a short while, I wonder what the results would be. Comparatively speaking, we hare been robbed the same as a bandit who takes the belongings of another, and today we are hoping in some way a fairness will be extended to all in volved, and not to just a part. I real ize more attention perhaps should be paid to scholarship and thoroughness, but the doors are closed to our itu dents and they have nothing to look forward to. Each citizen’s support of taxation, regardless of how large or small, this sum in a period of time helps to build and fortify our city. To be segregat ed as we are, denied privileges and opportunities in a city that is supposed to be free from selfishness and un justices is not giving the Colored citi zens who are tax payers fair play. Having been denied so long large masses of our students who perhaps would have struggled to go farther did not, due to the situation that ex ists. I believe you mean to be fair and will be to our group, as this perhaps may have been an oversight on your part, or no one in later years has in terceded to this extent for employm’t ; or consideration for our 6Vi% of the city s total population, who are also making it possible for thousands of j teachers discarding their own rights. If consideration is given to our group in the form of Colored teachers in the Omaha public school system, it will be highly appreciated; and our boys and girls who desjre, and have taken up such professions as their life work will be able to look forward to the future with hope and inspira tion. We can not be satisfied under the present situation, forced to pay the same fee for taxation with only the thoughts and considerations of yesterday. All of the larger cities today have given, and are still giving our people consideration to this extent, and they are constantly proving themselves worthy and capable of holding such positions. I am sure those who were employed in the city of Omaha a few years past proved themselves just as capable and efficient as others; and so will they do likewise today if giv en a chance. We are anxious for a chance for our I students who have finished their edu cation in this city and state, desiring an opportunity to manifest their abil ity, for where a reasonable amount of consideration and a fair chance is giv en. conditions are made better for us all. The homes are more inviting, and can be easily kept so, for the people will be in a better position to follow the laws of health. As Omaha's Colored population is 5%%, and taxes are approximately paid at the rate of same, we are only asking for that which is rightfully due us. I should like to receive your view point regarding the employment of Colored teachers and janitors in the schools of Omaha, and I am hoping you will give this situation serious thought. Thanking you very much for what ever consideration and information you may give, hoping you will pardon my frankness, and the monopolizing of your precious time, I am Respectfully yours. Dr. G. B.
