W.—I am making plans to entertain in my home the last week in April and I want to know if every thing will work out as I have planned ? Ans:—Your INFORMAL TEA will be a success, but it seems to me that j you will change your plans to some extent before you extend your invita tions. You will invite your friends who play BRIDGE instead of the young people that you are thinking of at present. C. E.—I was visiting at a church one Sunday recently and I felt slight ed by the minister. Should I feel as I do Ans.—Indeed not.for the pas tor of this church did not realize that he called on other visitors to say a few words and failed to acknowledge you. Overlook this mistake for since your visit to this church this minister has realized his mistake and is terribly sorry. E. M. C. —Can you locate my broth er for me. I am so anxious to know for I have something to tell him? Ans.—Your brother Johnny is with a distant cousin of his at this writing and it seems to me that he will drop in a HOME before the next important holiday.

M.—Will I ever marry the man that I am still so fond of or what will be the outcome of this of fair? Ans.—Your friend has found some one else whom he loves and has al ready asked her to BECOME HIS WIFE.

You will meet a more desira ble mate during the late summer. L. N- C.—What caused the sudden change in my friend. Do you believe that he has talent ? Ans.—Your friend was hurt terri bly when he submitted his last story to the publishers and they failed to acknowledge it. They returned it to him to rewrite but he does not want to do so. Encourage him to put more time in his work for he certainly has talent as a short story writer. H. S. L.—Was my last strike val uable and will I ever hear anything from it? Ans.—I believe it would be worth your while to return to MONTANA and carry out the strike that you ran into while prospecting last year. Your old friend that you left your secret with is all right but he does not write letters and that is why it has been impossible for you to communicate with him. ' { L. B.

Adams (For The Literary Service Bureau) When the soul looks through the eyes, Weak the cleverest disguise; For it is no task, to see, Honesty, sincerity, Or determine otherwise, When the soul looks through the eyes. When the soul looks through the eyes, Matters not how hard one tries, Little ’tis he can conceal, But most surely will reveal What in language he denies, When the soul looks through the eyes. When the soul looks through the eyes, It would be a great surprise, Could we even partly know, Just how much of us we show, That our oily word belies, When the soul looks through the eyes.

Supreme Court To Hear Hollins Case Grants Writ of Certiorari and Sets April 29 As Date For Hearing of Argument in Famous Oklahoma Case. BATTLE SINCE DECEMBER, 1931 Washington, D. C., April 5. — The Jess Hollins case, known as the “Scottsboro case of Oklahoma”, wilh be heard by the United States su preme court on April 29, the court indicated here Monday. .In the tremendous excitement ‘ over the victorious Scottsboro case rever sal and he significant opinion on- the Texas white primary, the court’s an nouncement that it had granted a writ of certiorari in the Jess Hollins case attracted no attention. But those fa miliar with the Hollins case have poined out its similarity to the Scottsboro cases and have expressed the belief that it is an important at tack on the court system of the South as it operates against Negroes. Convicted in 1931 Hollins was convicted December 28, 1931 at a “farce trial” in the base ment of the jail in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. He was charged with criminal assault upon a white girl. At his “trial’' which was held at night, he had no lawyer and no one to advise him of his rights. Every man in the court room was against him and he was warned that if he did not plead guilty he would be turned over to a lynching mob. He pleaded guilty, was sen tenced to death, and was rushed by automobile to the state penitentiary the same night. At first the International Labor Defense was active in his case and in February, 1932, when an appeal was sent to the NAACP for aid, the asso ciation declined to act, on the ground that the I L.D. already had charge of the case. Hollins was sentenced to be executed August 18, 1932, but the I.L.D. made no move to perfect an appeal for him or to obtain a stay of execution, or to protest the “joke rial” by which he had been railroaded to death. Three days before the scheduled ex ecution NAACP officers in Oklahoma telegraphed the national office and machinery was started in motion which secured a stay of execution for Holliris and quickly got a reversal of his conviction b'* the state supreme court. The Oklahoma supreme court, in reversing the conviction, rebuked I the lower court in scorching language and declared that Hollins had been i denied all his constitutional rights in a ruthless manner. Branches of the NAACP in Okla homa, assisted by the national off.ce, raised the funds for the new trial and the appeal to the Oklahoma supreme court following the second conviction. Girl Familiar With Negroes It was at the second trial that the Hollins case was shown to be very ' similar to the Scottsboro case. White Oklahoma lawyers engaged by the state NAACP brought aut in direct testimony that the girl who claims to have been assaulted by Hollins was on familiar terms with Negroes, had gone to their homes and dance halls for amusement, had made a practice of drinking with them, and enjoyed a reputation as a “good time girl” in the neighborhood. The girl’s testimony was that she had been criminally attacked against her will three times in the space of three hours in a field alongside a pub lic road, with the house of a white farmer w»thin sight and within sound of her screams if she had chosen to scream. Her testimony showed that despite the fact that she could have gone to the home of the white farmer as soon as the crime was committed, instead she walked to the road with Hollins and he went in one direction and she in another. Apparently, she never told anyone about the assault until she happened to meet her relatives on the road and they questioned her about her long absence. One of the witnesses at the second trial was a colored evangelist who tes tified that he had to close down his tent rev.val because the white girl made so much trouble among the young colored men. Jury Issue Raised The NAACP lawyers also chal lenged the method of selecting the juries and placed the jury commis sioner on the stand. It was shown that no Negroes had ever been select j ed for jury service, whereas in many instances it was testified that the jury commission solicited white men stand ing on the street corners to serve as jurors. The brief to be drawn for the su preme court by NAACP lawyers will stress the jury question and it is hoped that the court will reverse the conviction of Hollins just as it has re versed the conviction of the Scottsboro defendants. A call for additional funds to finance the expensive appeal to the supreme court was issued by the NAACP in New York. “Colored people and their friends cannot afford to hesitate at this time in pressing forward in the fight against the type of justice which has been meted out in the South”, the statement said. “Full advantage must be taken of every opportunity to secure rights to which every citizen is entitled. The jury selection system of the South is under fire. The de cision of the U. S. supreme court in. the Scottsboro cases places the forces of injustice on the defensive. We must press forward. A second vic tory in the Jess Hollins case on the heels of the decision of April 1 will help to break down more barriers.” Contributions should be sent to the NAACP, 69 Fifth Avenue, New York, N. Y. Checks may be made payable to Mary White Ovington, treasurer. MOBILE NAACP SECURES IMPROVED R. R. FACILITIES Mobile, Ala., April 5.—The Mobile branch, of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo ple, which is leading the fight - for cqu*Kaccomm8dations and facilities for colored passengers on railroads of the South, announces that the South ern is pushing its "work in improving passenger ^baches and ' facilities .for colored passengers. Cars in operation on the Southern between Mobile and Birmingham now provide for colored passengers a dress ing room for women, equipped identi cally as are rooms for white women. The smoker for men has similar im ! provementsi" ;Tho Southern is now affording col ored passengers a service that is iden tical to that furnished white passen- j gers in every respect, and is far super ior to that furnished by any other railroad entering Mobile; the Mobile & Ohio is furnishing the next best service. Southern and Mobile & Ohio cars are also equipped with electric fans. Mr. Norris assured the branch that such improvement is also being made on the Southern line between New Orleans and Cincinnati. The matter of overcrowding in Mo bile and Ohio trains between Mobile and FStS. Louis has been brought to the attention of Stanon Curtis, gener al passenger agent, who advised the branch that the matter would be checked. T. E. Brooks, vice-president of the Louisville & Nashville railroad, has advised the branch that all trains which have not heretofore provided wash bowl in coach toilets for colored made passengers, would soon have the facility installed. While colored pas sengers are now securing an improved coach service on the L. & N.’s fast Pan-American, since the branch filed complaint of discrimination with the Interstate Commerce Commission a gc n?t several of the leading southern railroads, including the L. & N. and specifically naming its Pan-American in the complaint, Mr. Brooks would not assure the branch that individual reel ning and revolving sea s would be furnished colored passengers on that train such as is furnished whites. As a consequence, the branch may find it necessary to push before the I. C. C. a charge of discrimination in that particular instance. I J. L. LeFlore, secretary of the Mo bile branch has had charge of the in vestigations to determine discrimina tions on the leading southern railroad systems east of the Mississippi river. He made a study of Interstate Com merce laws and filed complaint agains the railroads under Section 3, Para graph 1, which prohibits “any com mon carrier subject to the provisions of this Act (the Interstate Commerce Act) to make or give any undue c unreasonable preference or advanagc to any particular person, compan. . firm or to subject any particular per son, company, firm ... to any undue or unreasonable prejudice of disadvan tage whatso ever.” The complaint: were filed with Director W. P. Bartel Bureau of Service of the Interstate Commerce Commission. Mr. LeFlore stated that the Atlan tic Coast Line, Frisco and Seaboard Air Line, comprising the last three big systems not already investigated would be examined when funds ar. available.

One of the maid demands of the union is for the right of Ne groes to all jobs in the stores with out discrimination in pay or hours. A representative of the union reports that the manage-i meiit is willing 10 settle most ofj the other demands if the union will abandon this one. Mr. A. Boyd, a young Irish or ganizer commented: A e understand that in want- [ ing up to drop this demand the management is trying to separate the white managers who are on su-ike from the Negro clerks: which would weaken our union, j On the other hand the refusal to fight for this demand would also take away the support of the Ne gro community from the struggle our union is putting on. We are sticking tight in our fight again st Negro discrimination.” Some of the other demands are: a $2.00 minimum weekly wage; recognition of the union and col COULD NOT DO HER HOUSEWORK VVTHEN every thing you at tempt is a burden —when you are nervous and irri table—at your wit’s end—try this medicine.
