qee, it’s good to be back in this swell
apartment after such an insulting day. What
a beginning and a whole year to go!
kou’re lucky Miss Anne, only a
year. We have a lifetime!
Anyway, I haven’t seen all there is
to see yet. What about the social
side? As the attractive brown you
say 1 now am, with this gorgeous
apartment, 1 should be able to meet
the pick of the tcwn. Maybe Ibai
will be the compensation ! Just the
same, I am determined to prove
rMy point. What worries me is
hew tan I dccou.nt for this rncst
luxurious place and still be looking
for a job ?

RACE PREJUDICE BLOCKS OLD
AGE PENSION
By R. A. Adams
(For The Literary Service Bureau)
Race prejudice, born of fear of the
Negro, intrudes itself into every
phase of our national life and affects
every problem which confronts «3.
Just now it seems that this Colossus
is standing in the way of old-age
pension laws by the states and the
national government
A United States senator from Kan
sas gave the information that the
old-age pension bill will never be
passed, beecause the president is op
a law and would not have such.
Then came the frank statement that
the Southern Democracy which con
trols th« administration would oppose
, it because three-fourths of such mon
ey would go to colored people of the
south.
So, according to this information
needy white people of the nation are
to be denied this consideration and
the help so necessary, in order to pre
sent benefits from reaching Negroes
in the Southland. In this case, preju
dice is proving a boomerang and hit
ting the very folk who are using it
against those of our social group.
Prejudice is always blind and this
case is indeed a confirmation of this
axiom. If this money should be paid
to colored people of the south, prac
tically every dollar of it would be
posed to it. Also it was stated that
not a single southern state has such
spent there, would contribute to the
expansion of business and increase of
the wealth of the people of that sec
' tion.
But prejudice is unreasoning, as
well as blind, therefore it will not hear
this argument and so the southern
oligarchy will increase its poverty
when it might increase its wealth.

Text:—After these things did king
Ahasuerus promote Haman the ion

This name, Haman, signifies mag

are three things which feature in the
eventful life of this man who, at one
time was the favorite of King Ahas

>!t is your turn now to show your

Let us help you convince him that it
pays to advertise in YOUR paper.
Remember, charity begins at home.
Give your community merchant a

chants- It is strictly up to you what
kind of service your merchants and
your paper gives your community.
They understand you and they have
a sense of appreciation. They appre

indispensible duty, today, to do your
part to help build your community
paper and community merchants. If
this is done; when your road gets
rough and your load gets heavy, your
community paper and community
business men may be in position to
lend you a hand of assistance, for we
understand you, and jrou understand
us.
Remember, it is your best bet to
feed the horse that pulls the plow.
It is your best bet to put gasoline in
the car you may have the opportunity
to operate. Remember, it is your best
bet to cooperate with those whose
problems are something similar to
your own.
Watch this page next week. The
North Omaha Community merchants
will extend to jx>u a hand of welcome
