Mt Moriah Baptist Church,
24th and Ohio Streets,
Rev. F. P. Jones, Pastor.
Sunday was another great day at
Mt. Moriah both spiritually and fin.
ancially. The pastor delivered very
helpful and inspiring sermons, at the
morning and evening worship. A
men’s chorus of 30 voices rendered
the music for the evening service.
This was their first appearance, and
they received jnuch praise and com.
ment for their splendid music. Much
enthusiasm was demonstrated in the
Sunday school at which time closing
reports of the Hill Top Race in which
all class*-* were participating were
made. When the final reports were
sumed up it was found that the Sun.
day School had gone over the top
in new members and offering. This
same enthusiastic spirit continued
through the BYPU. at which time a
very Tmprsasive program was rend
ered by the Old Reliable Group to a
packed house. The closing report
showed that each group had raised
over their apportionment. The after
noon service under the direction of
Ever Loyal Group was well attended.
The Pastor, and Officers wore highly
pleased with the final reports of aux
iliaries for the Month of March. Dr.
R. T Frye, President of Western
Baptist College, Kansas City, Mo.,
who was Guest Speaker at the New
Era Board Meeting last week, was
house guest of Rev. and Mrs. F. P.
Jones, during his stay in the . city
He also spoke at the evening service

supervisor of the work, assisted by
some of the other brethern and the
women who make up the various or

We have a Bible class each Tues

community are missing a great op
portunity of learning the truth about
the Bible and its teachings. Brother
J. C. Parker is the teacher, and we
consider him one of the most profic
ient Bible teachers in the city. Elder
Huntley and Sister Mitchell have or
ganized a junior choir, which sings in
the mornings and the adults choir
snigs at tbe evening service. Both
choirs sing well. You should hear
them. We had in the audience Sun

Mrs. Eula Britt and with them was

At Zion Rev. Bryant preached a
great sermon on the value of being

THIS BOOKLET IS TO HELP YOU
BETTER UNDERSTAND THE
. FEDERAL HOME LOAN
BANK SYSTEM
(Continued from last week)
been led to believe that this system
would accomplish impossible things.
Infortunately for the inauguration of
this permanent system it happened
to be started amidst the throes of a
national political campaign. The
plan to refinance sound mortgages
temporarily in distress has been mis
understood and the thought is a.
broad that the United States Gover
nment will immediately take over all
distressed mortgages and thereby re
lieve private capital of its present
troubles and loss. The emergency
confronting the nation and the home
owner should not occupy the entire
attention of the public without refer
ence to the benefits that would flow
from a permanent system any more
than should the emergency relief as
pects of the temporary Reconstruc
tion Finance Corporation banking, su
pplant the permanent Federal Res
erve System.
There are really two pressing prob
lems in the home financing field. One
is taking care of the individual with
a short-term mortgage which has
been called and the individual who has
good real estate security, who can
repay and who merits further funds.
The Home Loan Bank System can ef
fectively solve this problem. The
second problem is the property own
er who does not have employment
and has not been able for many
months, if not years, to pay interest,
taxes. apd insurance. Further loans
will not assist this individual and
most advances made under such con
ditions could ever be repaid. The
Home Loan Bank System cannot deal
with this problem.
If the Federal Government should
desire to undertake the granting of
doles to individuals under the guise
of loans with the resulting hazards
which such a departure in Govern
ment and in business entails, neces.
sarily they must do it without invit
ing into stock partnership commun
ity businesses and private investors
because private institutions cannot
risk the investments of their mem
bers and'pledge their credit in unsafe
and unbusiness-like enterprises.
The Home Loan Bank System con
tinues to be criticized in banking cir
cles and in banking publications. The
home financing institutions in this
country, and particuarly building and
loan associations, do not presume to
pass upon and criticize the obvious
shortcomings of the commercial bank
ing structure of the country. As
the building and loan associations are
primarily engaged in the home fin
ancing business, we feel that other
institutions should be equally toler
ant and should refrain from continu
ing the competitive offense against
the Home Loan Bank System that
characterised their actions during the
six months it was being considered by
Congress.
The life insurance companies mili
tantly opposed the system and to
this date, (continued next week)

FRANK J. RIHA ISSUES STATE
MENT
Frank J. Riha, Chairman of the
Board of County Commissioners, has
issued the following statement in con
nection with his candidacy for city
commissioner.
“In this campaign, I intend to stand
squarely on my record as County
Commissioner. In that position, coupl
ed with the chairmanship of the board
of equalization, I successfully fought
for economies and lower taxes which
saved the taxpayers more than a mil
lion dollars a year. Proof of this
statement will be found in the 1932
County and 1933 City tax receipts.
These records will show that I was
responsible for actually reducing tax
es.

“What
Others Say”
Dear Mr. Galloway:
I would like to say a few words in
interest of Dean Noyes. I see that he
is a candidate for Commissioner April
4th.
Mr. Noyes moved me when I was
evicted from my home last fall on
22nd St., and my family had no place
to go.
So many of my friends received the
same help from him.
The Colored people should apprec
iate a man like Dean Noyes for he
gives our men work and helps us at
anytime.
