A Cruel Heart, Indeed
We happened to pass 27th and
Blondo street, and we discovered
about eight sprays of thin vapors
of cool water flowing and about
35 or 40 citizens of the neighbor
hood between the ages of 5 and
25, participating therein. It was
in the heat of the afternon,
about 2:30 p. nr, and I had just
read a letter from Africa, written
by Dr. McMillan. He said that
it is now 120 degrees in the shade.
That made the whole day seem
hotter to me ,and when I saw this
cool spray of water as so many
seemed to be enjoying it, I won
dered what humanitarian had
thought of the children and the
youth suffering during these hot
days. I felt like joining the
party, but I had just received a
telephone cal lthat Art and lone
were at dagger points over who
wa swho, in a neighborhood at
tempt rape exposure, and seem
ingly I was the center of their
conversation for not giving cred
it where credit w as due.
On my journey, a few days af
er I passed 28th and Miami, and I
had the same happy experience of
seeing a happy group of children
having the time of their lives, un
der the spray of a cool water vap
or. The next day I had an occas
sion to go up Miami, to carry a
message to Mrs. Boone, that her
son'in-law, Dr. McMilan wil1 ar
rive in America, from his five
year stay in Africa. July 23. On
my return from Mrs. Boone, I
saw many sad faces in groups,
standin grrorrtd, seemingly w-on
-Vr-Vo- wha had become of thorn
doling va^or snravs of water. I
became interested in the grief
stricken youth and I began to
make impories. as to why the
mrav was not in operation.
Now here is where a cruel heart
| indeed had performed to the re
| gret of a group of suffering chil
dren. 1 w-as informed that some of
the neighbors had called the park
Department and requested that
the spray be removed from in
front of their homes or in fact off
of Miami street. If our Savior
asked who is your neighbor, in
this case, he would say: “Not
the lady who called the Park De
partment.’' lie might give the
credit to our Park Commissioner
Frank Frost, for trying to make
this hot weather a little more
bearable by making up a few*
wrater sprayers and spreading
them around in our city for the
kiddies. But if everybody is go
ing to request him to keep it
away from in front of their prop
erty, kind-hearted Park Commis
sioner Frank Frost wrill be lost as
to what steps to take.
We have just had a phone call
from the Park Department as to
where was a goo dspot to place a
couple of good new water sprays
just finished at the shop. Now
Mr. Omahans, if you love chil
dren, and can appreciate what the
little fellows are going through in
this hot weather, and you do not
possess a cruel heart, call the
Park Department and tell them,
they are welcome to place one of
the sprayers in, front of your home |
for the kiddies and find someone
who will see that they do not run
rampart over peoples gardens,
and flowers, just call ATlantic
8812, and ask for Park Depart
ment, and say that you are wel
come to place a sprayer in front
of my home .that is if you love
children and may the Lord help
you, if you don’t

HINT SCANDAL AT
WESTERN UNIVERSITY
---
(Continued from Page One)
This came about because of the fact
that African Methodists all over the
country protested against the State
retaining Bishop Vernon as Superin
tendent of the State Industrial De
partment of the University after his
suspension.
Governor Landon of Kansas, and
an aspirant for the Republican Presi
dential nomination, despite the
charges of immoral conduct brought
against Bishop Verhon and the pro
test ot the A. M. E. Church, has re
fused absolutely to move him; and
according to the leaders of the church,
the State has assumed complete con
trol over the school,
In view of the new charges being
framed to make his suspension per
manent or unfrock Bishop Vernon at
the General Conference in New York
City in May 1936, this writer drove
to Topeka and interviewed the Gov
ernor in his office, since he has been
so prominently mentioned for the
Presidency of the United States, and
asked him if he intended to re-ap
point Bishop Vernon for another year
over the bitter protest of the Chris
‘ tian leaders of all denominations all
over the country.
| The Governor explained that Ches
j ter Franklin, Editor of the Kansas
| City Call, visited his office about six
1 weeks ago and asked him to please re
appoint Bishop Vernon as Superinten
dent; that he is the only man fitted
for the position, and that because Mr.
Franklin owns the leading colored pa
per in the mid-west, he did re-appoint
the Bishop.
Rumor in the Christian circles
have it that Bishop Vernon, is alleged
to have contributed large sums to The
Call.
I Again, the Baptist Ministers charge
that when they snubbed Bishop Ver
non a few weeks ago, the story was
gfiven to Mr. Franklin to run. This
he refused to do, saying it was not
news, yet the Associated Negro Press
accepted the same story and it was
published by nearly every colored pa
per in the United States.
When interviewed in his office in
the Industrial Department of Western
University anent his attitude toward
the hold grand tpess, Bishop Vernon
said he was caught unaware at the
last General Conference; that he had
been framed. However, he did not
care what folks say or the news
papers publish about him.
When informed of the new charges
to unfrock him, he said they caught
him napping before, but at the next
General Conference he intends to
catch some of them napping with a
few charges.
•If Bishop Vernon is re-instated
over the charges to be made against ^
him, some of the leaders of the Fifth
Episcopal District threaten to with
draw from the A. M. E. connection.
Throughout the District this senti
ment seems to prevail.
