(Encouraging Precociausness)
Preeociousness of “forwardness” as
old folks used to call it, is a serious
thing. No one knows how much her
edity and parental influences have to
do with it. It should bs dealt with
very cautiously- Yet there are par
ents who encourage it. And these
very parents deal severely with pre
cocious children.
Today little children are teased
about sweethearts and beaus. Th:y
are “paired”, dtance as partners, and
flirt like “big folks*.
Often mothers consider it “cute” for
their little girls to wink at men, sit
on m n’s laps, kiss men, flirt with
men. Sometimes when little girls are
timid, mothers coax, “Be a nice girl;
give the gentleman a swreet kiss;” or
“Be a nice little girl and sit on the
gentleman’s lap ” If girls are more
precocious than girls used to be—and
'they Jre—(they are hob wholly to
blame. Many times their mothers are
responsible.

Washington, D. C. Jan. 4 —Thirty
hours to the minute be:fore he was
scheduled to be executed in Oklahoma,
Jess Hollins was granted another 30 \
da?;s of life by the U- S. Supreme
Court.
The stay was secured by Charles H.
Houston, vice dean of the Howard
university law school, acting for the
National Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People. Hollins was :
scheduled to be execut d at 12:01 a. m- !
January 4. At 6 p. nv January 2,
Mr. Houston secured from, Mr. Jus-1
tice VanDevanter of the highest tri-:

telegraphed at once to th^ warden of
the State penitentiary at McAlister,
Okla, The additional month will be
utilized by the N.A A C.P. council

Hollins was first convicted of crimi
nal assault late in Dceeirirr 1931. His
!al draped along under the di
rection of the International Labor
Defense and nothing was done for
him for eight months- An appeal was
sent to the. N.A.A-C.P- in February,
1932. by friends of the condemned
man in Sapulpa, Okla.. but when the
N.A.A.C.P. investigated and found
the I.L-D. in charge, it left matters
to that organization.
Momns was sentenced to die Au
gust IS, 1932 and a frantic appeal for
help came to the N A.A.C P. on
August 15. Since at that late dat
nothing had been done to carry on
Hollins’ case by the I.L.D., the N.
A A.C.P. stepped in by telegraph
and long distance telephone and
through its Oklahoma state president,
Roscoe Dunjee, secured a stay of ex
ecution and filed notice of appeal to
the Oklahoma high courts
A new trial was quickly granted
the Oklahoma high court handing
down a blistering rebuke to the low

robbed of his rights. It was brought
out that Hollins had been tried in the
baseipient of the jail at night, without
p. lawyer »nd wholly in the pres nee of
his enemies and that he had been
threatened with lynchng if he did not
confess.
After a new trial, a wrangle ov^r a
change of venue and an airing of the
exclusion of Negroes from the jury,
Hollins was again convicted and the
Oklahoma court of appeals upheld the
sentence. At this stage, the Okla

COSTIGAN-WAGNER BILL IS
STRONGER IN RE-DRAFTING
Washington, D. C. Jan. 4.—Added
strength was given the Costigan
Wagner anti-lynching bill hire after
a day spent in re-drafting certain
portions of it in accordance with sug
gestions and criticisms of eminent
lawyers and law school instructors.
Ever since last June when the bill died
in the Senate, the N.A.A.C P. has
been seeking the further advice of
leading experts in legislation and con
stitutional Javr in order to make the
bill still more effective
Walter White, N.AA.C.P. secre
tary, conferred here Thursday on the
bill and a newly amended draft was
introduced late today by Senators Cos
tigan and Wagner. On of the prin
cipal changes was made to prevent the
bill being used against workers in in
dustrial disputes- Sympathizers of
organized labor had expressed the
fear last y ar that employers might
utilize the bill to break up labor dem
onstrations. All danger of that is re
moved in the revised bill.
It is the plan now to stage hearings
on the bill before the senate judiciary
committee perhaps late in January so
' s to have it acted upon early in the
present session.

ures of the present day—Hitler of
Germany, Mussolini of iltaly, Musta

of Arabia, Mahatma Gandi of India
and Sun Yat Sen of China.
In discussing the world situation.
Doctor Mathews pointed out the part
that youth may play in trying to
change present condtions- Ha de
scribed the present age as the most
thrilling the w'orld has ever seen,
I partly because there hava been more
revolutions over a wider area going
deeply into human life than have hap
pened before in any age in the history
; of tha world. Doctor Mathews em
i phasized the fact that nationalism,
communism, and mechanistic indus
trialism are smashing into the world
that nationalism is one of the great
forces that has torn up the countries
of Europe, and that none of these
would be as effective in bettering
world conditions as would the Chris
tian doctrine of brotherhood if that
were practiced by the peoples of the
world. In concluding his talk, Doctor
Mathews stated that faith in God the
Father Almighty is a foundation on
which to build world peacr, and that
it is up to the ;<outh of all countries
to take off their coats and to roll up
their sleeves and tackle the job of
building a new world on that founda
tion.

MOREHOUSE COMPLETES
ENDOWMENT FUND
Campaign To Raise $600,000 Was
Successful.
Atlanta, Georgia, Jan. 9—The en
dowment campaign begun in 1928 to
raise $300,000 to match $300,000 of
fered conditionally by the Genera!
Education Board has been brought to
a successful conclusion, it was an
nounced today by President S. H.
Archer, who expressed the thanks of
Morehouse Collef-e to all the friends
who have contribut d money and time
to bring about this result.
Tn June, 1928, when Dr. John hope
then president of Morehouse College,
announced the conditional offer of the
General Education Board to give
$300,000 for endowment to More
house College, it was expected that
the necessary supplementary sum of
$300,000 could be raised inside ef three
jears, President Archer said, as times
were prosperous then. One large
pledge of $100,000 was secured from
the Julius Ros.nwald Fund, provided
Negroes would raise. $100,000. Then
in 1929 c0me the affiliation of More
house College with Spelimn College
and Atlanta University and for the
time-being all the energy of the ex
ecutive officers had to be given to
organizing and putting into operation
the new university scheme.
The depression beginning in 1929
made more and more difficult to raise
money. The two foundations grant
ed extensions of time. The Julius
Rosenwald Fund removed the restric
tion about matching only money paid
by Negroes- The Alumni rallied, a
n.w campaign committee headed by
L. D- Milton made plans, the white
citizens of Atlanta through a commit
tee headed by P. S. Arkwright of
fered to help, and through the com
bined efforts of all, the goal was
reached and the $600,000 endowment
has been secured
As Morehouse College already had
an endowment of $320,000, the com
pletion of the present effort brings
the total endowment of the college
to $920,000.
