(■REVEALING’ ptST, PRESENT? W. S P. —Will you please give me your advice about what to do? Ans.—It is true that things have been breaking pretty tough for you recently, but there is nothing to be gained by allowing yourself to be come despondent and downhearted if you fight, there is always a chance to win, but if you give up now, there isn’t a possible chance for you to ever better your condition. C. L. B. —What is the trouble with my boy, and do you think he has an ailment? Ans:—Just because your son is slow in his school work is no reason for you to become so alarmed. Some children are naturally ahle to take up school work and go right ahead with it, while others require very careful handling and much careful instruction on the part of their parents as well as their teachers. Do everything you can to help your son with his work, and above all, DON’T SCOLD HIM FOR BEING SLOW TO LEARN. R E.—Can you tell me why people tell lies about me? Ans:—It is one of the sad traits of human nature that people will just naturally concoct stories on the slight est provocation, and sometimes inno cent people must suffer merely to give thesa gossip mongers something to talk about. You know that you are innocent of the charges that these people have brought against you, so try and dismiss the matter from your mind. D. M- McN.—Will I ever accom plish my one great ambition? Ans.-—I believe that you have a very good voice, and after you have put in the required amount of time in proper training, <1 think you will achieve a large measure of success as a tenor soloist. W ■ C. E. —I want to know if you can tell me anything about my sister? Ans.—I don’t believe that you have any reason to be so worried about your sister. She hasn’t been working all of the time since she has been in Xew York, but she isn’t ill, and I believe that you will find that she is getting along quite well. H. G.—When will my girl friend change her mind about me? Ans.—I believe that the young lady has you figured out thoroughly, and she wisely marked you off her list. If you really cared for her, you would Three at Communist Meet Found Guilty Three men arrested at an at tempted communist mating were found guilty on vagrancy charges in police court Thursday after noon, one was dismissed, and a fifth, who demanded a jury trial, was given a continuance until Sat urday.

J.—tl wonder if you can tell me who my future wife will be? Ans.—It seems that you are going to marry the girl that you have been going with for a little more than three years. I believe her initial is [“M”. But I want to warn you about that nasty temper of yours- She doesn’t Ike your outbursts now, and after you are married I don’t think she will put up with it. You had bet ter be a bit careful if you don’t want to lose her. D. C. B.—What can I tell my wife about the money i borrowed from her? Ans.—I don’t believe it will be necessary for you to tell any more lies about the money that you lost in the crap game; your wife won’t believe you anyway. I would suggest that you stay off gambling games, and if you can’t do that, the least you can do is to use your own money. You can’t expect your wife to furnish the money for you to throw away. H. H. M—Do you think my boy j will ever get any better? Ans.—It seems that your son’s con dition is improving, but I don’t be lieve he will get any permanent re lief until he has his tonsils removed. You shouldn’t hesitate to have this done, because there is very little dan ger if he has the proper care. D D. H—'Will you kindly tell me if I am going to get what J am work ing for? Ans.—It requires a great deal of very careful and conscientious work in order to get anything out of a contest like the one you have entered, and I l won’t be too optimistic over the out come. But you have as good a chance as any ne else, so if you have the time to spare and if you don’t mind really putting out some mighty hard work, then you might be able to get in on the prizes.

LOUIS, MO. > — - - ■ —— Randolph Goes West to Direct Campaign to Win Election According to reports received at the national headquarters of ihe Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. 105 West 136th Street, in New York City. A. Philip Ran dolph, National President, left for Chicago to direct the cam paign to win the election which has been ordered by the Naiional Mediai ion Board in which Pull man porters will be required to vote for the organization they want. From Chicago, Mr. Randolph will visit the large midwest Pull man districts. He will establish headquarters in Chicago for hand ing the campaign, since the Na tional Board has also established its headquarters in the Consum er’s Building for the purpose of supervising the election. Mr. H. H. Reed, the Mediator is in charge of the entire election. Some Facts About the Pullman Porter’s Fight 1. The Brotherhood cf Sleep ing Car porters was organiz ed in New York City, Au gust 25, 1925. 2 In 1928, the Brotherhood of Seeping Car porters sought tiie services of the Mediation Board under the Railway Labor Act of 1926, to adjust the dispute between the Brotherhood and the man agement of the Pullman com pany. The Pullman company refused to meet with the Bro therhood. 3 The Brotherhood sought to secure and investigation of The Pullman Company by the Interstate Commerce Commission and to raise wages by having a ban plac upon tipping. The Commis sion decided against the Bro therhood on the ground that it was a labor question and properly fell upder the Me diation Board. 4 In June of 1928, the Bro therhood took a strike vote, but it postponed it with the advice and cooperaion of President William Green of the American Federation of Labor, and proceeded to con duct a nation-wide campaign with a view to informing and mobollzing public opinion about the wages, hours of work and conditions of work for Pullman porters. Nil lions cf pieces of literature were printed and circulated. Thousands of meetings were held and addressed through out the country by Brother hood officials and a paper, known as the Black Worker, was published. 5 In 1929, the Brotherhood became affiliated with the American Federation of Lab or. 6 In 1931, the Brotherhood petioned the Federal District Court of Northern Illinois for an injunction to prevent the Pullman Company from main taining the Plan of Employee Representation or company union. i When the amendments to the Railway Labor Act of 1926 were written for presen tation to and passage through the Senate and the House, the Pullman porters were left out and Brotherhood repre sentatives appeared at the Senate hearings and were suc cessful in having the porters included in the Act. 8 The Brotherhood wrote the Pullman Company for a conference in November, 1934 and the Pullman Company refused said conference. 9 Following the Company’s refusal to meet with the Bro therhood, the services of the National Mediation Board were invoked and the Board assigned Hon. John M Car m?dy to investigate the case. He, together with a statisti cian visited the headquarters of the Brotherhood of Sleep ing Car Porters and then made a report on the organi zation. Following his report, the Poard assigned Mr. H. H. Reed, me of the Mediators, to check the iuthorization cards in the hands )f the Brotherhood against the Pullman Company’s payroll, and .■.sv.v.v.v.v.v.v.w.v.’.v,;.

The rank and file of porters have made great sacrifices to ma-intoi^ the organization. For six or more years, no salaries were paid the officials and when salaries were paid, the top scale was 150.00 a month.

D. Reddick State col lege. This Lexington unit, on which there is an allowance of 38 inter viewers. typists, and general tabulators, is the largest of five units operating in the state. Kentucky is the second state to be surveyed. For five months his torical evidence was collected from the exslaves in Indiana. The testimonies which have been collected, though revealing invaluable data, are sometimes overshadowed by the interesting personalities of the ex-slaves themselves. For example, Scott Baker, Lexington ex-slave, age 100, has not been interviewed be cause he has been so busy with jobs about the city. Asks $10,000 in Alienation Suit Chicago May 30.—ANP—Mrs. Aline Russell. 4332 Forrestville Ave.. this city, filed suit this week against Mrs. Ruth Louise Schank, asking $10,000 damages for the loss of the affections of her husband, William Russell, Mrs. Russell charges that her husband, from whom she sepa rated two years has been “keep ing company" with Mrs. Schank for nearly five years. The Harlem Players It’s town Talk New York, May 30 (By Ted Yates for ANP)—The Harlem Players, that new dramatic stock company at the Lafayette Theatre, is about the best thing New York has had in years. Some sixty thousand persons have witnessed the two productions pre sented thus far, “Sailor, Beware,” and “Front Page,” and, they are voicing praise from the housetops. Many of the characters are known from coast-to-coast, they include such talented artists as: Juano Hernandez, : (“John Henry,” of radio fame) who has been featured at the Cotton Club and on numerous theatre stages; Frank Wilson, of “Porgy,” and other dramatic productions; Alston Blrleigh, of the “Run, Lil’ Chilian,” and “Steve dore” vehicles. His work always is outstanding. Juanita Hall, Cristola Williams, Dorothy Sinclair, James Dunsmore, Canada Lee, Tom Moseley and a number of others are seen. In viewing the initial production of the new Negro repertory group your |N. Y. correspondent was overcome with the splendid showing that (these artists were not expected by press and public to do so well) the cast has made with plays that rocked N. Y.'s Times Square district. W herever persons interested in the theatre have gathered they have said nice things about the Harlem Players. I, myself, am glad to see the stock companies back. (Dramatic critics have come forward to shower bouquets and give the high est rating possible. With the initial production, “Sailor, Beware,” neatly put over and tucked away the cast is preparing to do the high tension, melodramatic farce of newspaper life (right up my alley), The Front Page,” the Ben Hecht-Charles MacArthur story which was staged by George S. Kaufman. The second production by the Har lem Players, (“Front Page”) will have its opening, Tuesday evening, May 21st at the Lafayette Theatre, following the smash success of, “Sail or, Beware,” “Front Page,” (like the laughable naval farce that it follows into Harlem’s leading theatre) had an extensive B’wav run. It is the play that was talked about more than any ! other, save possibly, “The Pulitzer Prize Play,” “Green Pastures,” and with nine months on B’way and four months in Chicago, this production i will be presented for the first time with a colored cast. Juano Hernandez and Frank Wilson will be co-featured. Others in the cast include Cristola Williams, George Randol, Alston Burleigh and Juanita Hall. There will be another gathering of downtown, midtown and ‘round the Town celebs when on Tuesday evening, . May 21st the Harlem Players will , show them howr its done. “The Front Page,” I mean. Barclay Again Heads Liberia as President ^lonrovia, Liberia, May 30 (ANP) —President Edwin J. Barclay was re elected president of the Republic of Liberia last week. President Barclay received the overwhelming indorse ment of the electorate according to figures made public by the govern ment, Barclay polling 344,569 votes to 7,784 received by ex-president C. D. H. King. President Barclay was a candidate on the ticket if the True Whig party, a part which acquires its name from its presumed representa tion of the masses- Mr. King ran under the dual party label of the Peo ple’s Party and the United Whig party. This was President Barclay's first election at the hands of the people He had been Secretary of State when he assumed the office of chief execu tive in 1930 after President King re signed under fire because of charges that Liberian officials aided by King were sending natives into forced labor in Fernando Po, an adjoining country controlled by Spain. Most important feature of the elec tion was the carrying of an amend ment to the constitution which ex tends the president’s term from four years to eight years.

I countries affiliated with the League 1 of Nations, will be Liberia’s attitude toward its financial and international | problems. Clever manipulation on | the part of Mr. Barclay and the Li , berian legislature has this far kept the country from becoming a mandat : ed territory under the auspices of a ; League of Nations Committee. Such a transfer of power had been sought because of Liberia’s defaulting upon certain debts owed to European coun tries and to the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company of America. dnd.cation are that these difficulties will be ironed out- Harvey Firestone, Jr., of the rubber concern which main tains a great plantation in Liberia has just returned to America after making •his third visit here. It is the Fire stone firm which advanced the $5,000, 000 necessary to rehabilitate Liberia’s finances some years ago and it is the failure to pay the interest on that loan which led to part of the African republic’s difficulties. Mr. Firestone was the guest of President Barclay during part of his stay and observers report that they seemed to have reached an accord. It is expected in high circles here that America which has refused to send an official diplomatic representative pending an adjustment of its relations with Liberia, will now proceed to the naming of a minister.
