newspapers that I was writing a book
on Beale street nad told the story of
the Balomany black book scandal,' |
the author declared, “Involving bribe- j
taking officials and underworld char
acters, threats poured in from every
quarter of the underworld to the effect1
that if I didn't pass up the "black book' j
scandal, dire things would happen. But
I took the chance of writing my story.
"Following on the heels of this came i
the advice from friends of Stanley Pur
year that It would be best to forget
about the Pur. .year case. 1 kept on
getting threats and kept on writing
the book.
Mr. Lee, In explaining how he came
to write his book, said ‘‘Since my child
hood, Beale Street has been the worlds
; most thrilling center to me. The Sat
urday night cries of the gay, oare-free
: people who pass along the street In nev

strolling down the street with their

Beale Street Negroes Different From
Harlemites
The author contended that "the Ne
gro iving on this little thoroughfare, ram'
bllng from the docks of he Mississippi
River to the muddy botoms of IOast St!
has his own brand of metibptod
itan sophistication, entirely different!
from that of the white people's Main;
Sreet, or the Ndferroes of Harlem.” He!
then proceeded to describe the many
types of Negroes to be found on Beale
Street, their struggles and the color-;
ful and dramatic background out of
which, the world famous Blues of1
Handy grew, telling of the exodus of
the workers to the North, the trails
and tribulaions of the exploited tenant
farmers and of the cynical wit of the
black peons, one of whom said at the
end of a profitless year. "Well I won’t
tell a mule to git up anudder year 'less
he Is settin' in mah lap.
Declaring that most of the bookB
written about Negroes describe them
as eiher "unreal clowns, perpetually
sweet simpletons of the plantations",
Mr Lee continued: “I have never
known any of these three characters.
The Negro I know thinks independ
ently and takes life as it comes, phil
osophically and with at least his
share of human pleasure. ”
He gave a particularly vivid pic
ture of Saturday night on Beale
Street, aserting that “Three o'clock in
the morning is undertaker's hour. But
in the morning Beale Street goes on its
orderly way as one of the most thriv
ing 1>usiness thoroughfares in the
world. “
Following his broadcast, Mr. Lee was
he guest of his publisher. Robert O.
Ballou, and a number of prominent lit
erary folk at a supper at the smart
Steuben Tavern on Times Square, one
of the new dining palaces at the cross
roads of the world.

WHITE AND HURJA CLASH
OVER TEXAS VOTE
NEW YORK, Aug. 24—Emil Hurjai
assistant to James A. Farley, chair-1
man of the Democratic National Com
mittee, charged last week that the
protests of Walter White, secretary j
of the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People, to
several Democratic senators against
the falure of Mr. Farley's office to
act on the barring of Negroes from
Texas Democratic primaries “consti
tutes an act of discourtesy.” The
accusation was contained in a letter
addressed to Mr. White on August
18, following the receipt by Mr. Hur
ja of copies of letters written by the
N- A. A. C P. secretary telling sena
tors of futile efforts to get any ac
tion from him
Replying to the accusation of dis
courtesy in a letter dated August 23,
Mr. White declared “I would, how
ever. far rather be accused of dis- j
courtesy' than be guilty of failure
to take every possible step to pre
vent gross violation of the federal
Constitution and the flouting of de
cisions of the United States Supreme
Court by the officials of certain state
Democratic Committees.
“In the present instance we are fac
ed with a fact and not a theory. The
fact is that continued correspondence
between Mr. Farley and yourself on
the one hand this Association on the
other has failed signally to elicit a
single definite statement from you
that the Democratic National Com
mittee, its chairman, or its assistant
to the chairman have taken or will
take any steps whatever, even in the
way of advice, to prevent the barring
of qualified Negro voters from parti
cipation in the state primaries.”
| Citing communications dated May
22, June 13, July 20, July 23 and Aug.
j which were mere acknowledgments
of his letters urging action and fail
ed to state definitely what action, if
any, would be taken. Mr. White ex
pressed astonishment that in three
month’s time Mr. Hurja had not “at
least some contact” with Mr, Farley
in order to take up such an important
matter as violation of the federal Con
stitution and flouting of the U. S.
Supreme Court decisions on the pri
mary voting issue.
“This illegal action hy state Demo
cratic Commitees in the South.” Mr.
White’s letter continues, “is a mat
ter which does not belong exclusive!v
to the assistant to the chairman of
the Democratic National Committee.
It is a matter of concern not only to
him, but to the well-being of the par
ty as a whole. In a larger sense it
resolves itself into aquestion as to
whether or not the Democratic Na
tional Committee th(-ough yourself'
or Mr. Farley is going to remain in
actve and therefore give approval
of and consent to an illegal act.
“I presume you will consider this
a further act of discourtesy, but we
are supplying copies of your letter
of August 18 and of this reply to the
same Democratic senators to whom
we have previously written in order
that they may be kept informed of
the apparent unwillingness of the na
tional committee to act in this grave
situation.”
Mr. White declared today that the
Association would keep up this aght
for the right of qualified Negro vot
ers to vote in the Democratic prima
ries in the southern states to a show
down.

BITING TUK HAND THAT FKBDS
THEM
Forecasts say that when Congress
meets again, tt will put Into law “re
covery program’ of its own, as dis
tinct from the program initiated and
carried on for the past two years by the
President.
A salient feature of the proposed
congressional! program Is an old age
pension system. Another is unemloy
ment insurance. More public works
are contemplated and are held to be
needed as relief activities. Behind the
entire program is the supposition that
the capitalistic system has failed.
It is an interesting fact that, in spite
of this presumed failure of the existing
..system, the advocates of change are
absolutely dependent on it to put their
schemes ino effect, he program will
require billions of dollars—whleh must
be raised by taxing capital. If that
capital did not exist or could not con
stantly create new wealth to be taxed,
government would be absolutely unable
capital is destroyed, government relief
work and government itself must come
definitely to an end for the lack of sup
port. You e&n’t spend forever with
out having some place to get money.
Thus, on the one hand the experi
mentalists denounce private business,
(the capitalistic system), keep it plagued
with uncertainlty and faced with the
fear of new and still more radical legis
lation, while bleeding it white in order
to put their theories into practice. Try
to understand such reasoning, such hy
procrisy, such injustice.

COORDINATED PRODUCTION AND
BELLING IMPERATIVE
A hard-head milk and cheese man
from Wisconsin says producers can
never hope for a satisfactory price un
til, through their own voluntary action,
they learn to control volume velocity
and the larger percentage of output.
He says there is great to-do over
‘‘cheese week’’; a great fuss over mak
ing of a ton-cheese; a flutter of excite
ment over giving the President a cheese
that the producers are lulled into com
placency by the purchase of a few
millions pounds of cheese by the AAA;
that they forget that not one of these
bings really sells any increased vol
ume of cheese over the counter; that
they are mere opiates, false panaceas;
hat they are not cures or permanent
solutions; that in diarying the farmer
can get no where by idly talking pro
duction curtailment, or killing cows,
or giving away cheese, or praying for
the government to buy it; that the
only solution is to perfect a selling talk
to cause increase demand, as many
other., industries have ben obliged
effect a change of pace in order to
market their products.
This gentleman points out that con
stantly increasing numbers of persons
are engaging in cheese making and
hat tomorrow they will be faced with
he same selling problems with which
[Wisconsin cheese producers are faced
today * , . v, 1
This is the old story of rushing into
production of dairying, cheese or any
' other agricultural crops without scien
tifically analyzing the market possibil
ities and a plan for .tailing output. If
either farmers or manufacturers do not
coordinate their production and selling
methods, the old economic law of sup
py and demand will make them pay
tiearly Sor their mistakes.

WHEN WE ALL JOIN HANDS
By 1*0111 Jay
I _
The other day we learned of a tittle
i girl who is deaf, blind and mute. The
l hearts of the whole community were
: touched Children responded immedi
ately to the call for help. There was
peed of a fund if the child who for years
^"had been locked in an Invisible pri
son" was to be set free. Newsboys
| Ur ought their penies, old and. young
rich and poor contributed. In an a
maringly short time the goal was reach
ed. The amount needed to educate Helen
Siefert and to train her, has been over
subscribed.
We marvel at the sucres of this un
dertaking and yet why should we?
In our own comunity just last week
Stewart, a colored man who has been
malting his living by hauling, lost his
horse which was overcome by the heat.
Afraid that he would be unable to care
for his wife, Mr. Stewart turned to his
. .friends—forty-six of them. I wonder
how many of us could count aa many
true friends as that?
Foe years, so wo are informed Mr.
Stewart has been a good neighbor, a
hard worker and above 11 else a de
(voted husband to his wife, M rat ha, who
j has been bedridden for ten years.
! Never once during all that time has
Mr. Stewart been forced on charity.
With the help of his horse he ha» man
| age to be self supporting.
However, during the extreme heat
| of August the horse was stricken and
I died. For days, Mr. Stewart debated
what he should do. He had no wealthy 1
friends. Everyone he knew w.'lb in
circumstances much like his own. Fin
ally he decided that he would ask each
. of his friends to contribute one dol
lar toward the amount to buy a new
horse. And then he hesitated. One
dollar was a good deal to ask when
people had so little. He talked the
matter over with a couple of his neigh
bors. They agreed to help. Soon the
fund was started and the necessary
amount of money obtained.
It was a most auspicious ocassion
.vhen the gift horse purchased through
the Omaha Horse and Mule market,
with th«| assistance of T)om Knapp,
city welfare officer, w*s turned over
to Mr. Stewart.
Over and over again we hear of in
stances where people have banned to
gether to as 1st soma one In need.
I remember once when were out skat
ing- We were surprised to see a man |
pull off his coat and throw himself I
full length on the ice. When we skat
ed closer we saw that someone had j
broken through the Ice and was in
danger of drowning. The man we had
-seen was trying to rescue the boy who
had gone through an air hole but the
task was beyond his strength. Instant
ly there were a half a dozen others who
hurried forward to help. Throrugh
the combined efforts of ail the boy was;
rescued.
Yesterday on my way downtown I
saw a blind man sitting just ahead of
me in the street car. When we reach
ed Sixteenth and Douglas Streets he
got off and followed him. I couldn't
help feeling anxious for him. There
was an unsually large crowd on the
street but I saw that as quickly as he
alighfed someone took him by the arm
and helped him over to the sidewalk.
When the crowd moved forward to
cross Douglas Street another man slip
ped his arm through that of the blind
man and guided him until he safely
reached the other side.
They.. say "the world's growing cold
er each day" but I don’t believe it.
There are hearts as warm and filled with
A Note to Women
JS you suffer from painful men

Oet a bottle of CARDUI from the
drug store. Take It regularly for a
while. If It helps you as thousands
of women have reported It helped
them, then you will feel
stronger, healthier,
and happier.
CARDUI
' Try Cardul for severe
pains, cramps, nervous
ness at monthly periods.
Take It just as the di
rections on each bottle
say. Sold at drug stores.
Of course. If Cardul does not bene
fit YOU, consult a physician.,
compassion now as there were years ago
Cases like those of Helen Slefert and
Mr. Stewart force us to admit the fart.
With Helen, not only will the cMld
herseilf ..be helped but because of the
training of her teacher other children
similarly afflicted will receive the bene
fit of that training.
It's an endless chained formed bo
..cause hands have been clasped,in an
effort to render assistance to one In
need. Perhaps one of us may be able
to do but little. The means at our com -
mand may be small but the help
many assures success.
The other day I r>a**d a crowd of
happy children pitying ring-a-round
the roeey and it made me think that
When we all join hands

NEGRO TENANT DEFEATS
LANDLORD'S OUSTER
NEW YORK, Aug. 31—Jacob Cohen,
the Bronx landlorld who advertised
for colored tenants ia?-t s;iri-g and
then promptly sought to oust them
when white neighbors protested, is

one of Mr. Cohen’s olored tenants,

Mr. UntMarLk, with icann^ fore
