    Denver Bureau cf Pub
ic Welfare Studies
Skilled Employables
i
Denver, Colo., July 31, (ANP)—
For the past four weks more than
20 enumerators and field workers
have been engaged in a survey of the
non-manual and skilled employables
of the city. The task is a project
which has been authorized by the lo
cal administration of the Works
Progress Administration under the
direction of the Denver Bureau of
PJublic Welfare of which Mr. Rob
ert W. Beasley s adminstrator.
Thirteen weeks have been allowed
for the completion of the study and
for the compilation of the results
which are designed to show how the
workers composing this group can be
used in the government work pro
gram. The local sponsorship of the
project is composed of the Denver In
terracial Commission of which John
Gorsuch is chairman-elect, succeed
ng Dr. Vere V. Loper, and the Glen
arm Branch of the Denver Y. M.
C. A., which organization is furnish
ing office space and materials for the
survey.
Considerable dissatisfaction a 11
over th country has been expressed
by leaders of Negro groups over the
handling of the so-cailed “white col
lar’ Vorker, and in many cases he is
being described as the real “forgot
ten man’’ of the relief set-up, in that
no provision has been made to pro
vide the type of work for which he
is capable by experience and train
ing. The present survey is the only
project launched locally to employ
any considerable number of this
group The sponsors of the survey
exxpect to .nelude in the report of
the findings certain tangible projects
to include the NegTo skilled worker,
and this information will be made
available to other sections of the
country where the same inequalities
are in evidence. It is hoped that the
survey can be exxtended to include
the other citites of the state, and that
it may be followed by another grant
of federal funds to make a similar
study of the domestic and railroad
workers who comprise a large per
cent of Denver’s working population.

“Trust God and Give
’Em Hell” Bishop
Writes Selassie
St, Louis, Mo., July 31, (ANP)—
Although he is aware of the power
of God on the side of a nation fight
ing for its existence, Bishop Noah
W. Williams of the African Metho
dist Episcopal church, believes that
God helps those most who help them
selves and sas written a letter to
Emperor Haile Selasie of Ethiopia,
adjuring him, in his struggle against
Italian aggression, to “Trust God
and give them hell.”
The complete text of Bishop Wil
liam's letter reads:
“My dear Emperor Selassie:
“As one of the bishops of the
African Methodist Episcopal church
I wish for you and your people the
blessings and resistless elp of the ■
Eternal God aganst the wholly un
warranted, selfish and rapacious at
tack from Italy.
“While I speak unofficially (Our
Council of Bishops not meeting un
itl next February), yet every one of
the 15 Bishops of th African Metro
dist Episcopal church is of the same
opinion and prayer. In fact the
churches of tse United States, es
pecially of our ethic group, regard- :
less of denominations are having spe
cial days of prayer for your success. 1
the editors of our newspapers also
are soldily against Italy’s ungodly at- :
titude toward Christian Abyssinia.
“I had planned to visit your coun
tdy last February when in Jerusa
lem and Egypt and discussed it with
the secretary to your Consul in Jer
usalem, but found that my limited
timfe would not permit me to have
this coveted opportunity.
“The Lord God of hosts will be
tour rtfuge and strength and you
cannot lose with His help,, though the
contest, from a human point of view,
may be unequal.
“Trust God and give them hell.
“Very Cordially yours,
“Noah W. Williams,
“Bishop of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church.”
Monrovia California
Uncle Dave Toss was in Mon

him.
Mr. Kirk Jackson, who lives at

happens to be away for a few
days.
Mr. and Mrs. L. Hamilton,

now living with Mr. and Mrs. C.
Johnson at 219 Hunington Drive.
Mr- C. Johnson is out of the
city for a few days. We sure miss
him and will be glad when he re
turns home.
A few friends spent a few very
pleasant hours with Mr. and Mrs.
R. Anderson, of 221 Hunington
Drive, the eve of the 27 of July.
All had a great time.
We have not forgotten our old
friends. Tell me what it fs all about
and I shall mention it in this
space.
Stay as sweet as you are, and
I’ll see you again.

Only One In Ten Thou
sand Interested In
Racial History
(By Carter G. Woodson)
The appreciation of the public for
the scientific approach to the Negro’s
past and jiresent status is being ex
pressed today in a material way by
rallying to the call for this much
needed fund. The Association for
the Study of Negro Life and History
thua seeks the means to carry out
its present projects and to invade
new felds. The reports so far made
are incomplete. The Drive will con
tinue throughout 1935, and several
persons and agencies known to be ac
tive will not report until the cele
bration of the Twentieth Anniversary
in Chicago on the ninth of Septemr
ber. Others will continue the effort
throughout the fall.
The facts already on hand, how
ever, enable one to make certain safe
deductions. Only one Negro out of
every ten thousand is interested in
this effort to set forth what the Ne
gro has thought and felt and at
tempted and accomplished that the
race may not become a negligible
factor in the thought of the world.
By tradition and education, how-ver,
the large majority of Negroes have
become interested in the history and
status of other faces and spend mil
lions annually to promote such
knowledge. Along with this sum, of
I course, should be considered the large
! amount spent for devices in trying
not to be Negroes.
Those most interested in the work
of the Assocation for the Study of
Negro Life and History are mainly
in the public schols. Our friends in
Colleges and universities have ad
anced too fair in Ithetir education
! away from the race to see any need
for their effort. The churches as a
rule, manifest no interest in all. They
are too busy saving souls according
to the order of the Caucasian. In
other words, the more educa-ton a
Negro acquires of such as the Nord
ic provides for him today the less
helpful he becomes to himself. From
these sources the Asociation has
never received much and the manage
ment is not expecting much there
from.
Six thousand dollars, one fifth of
the amount, required has been raised.
Earnest workers here and there
have collected this aipount in pennies,
dickies, dimes, quarters and half
dollars. In Virgina under the leader
ship of President (John M. Gandy
and Professor L. P. Jackson of Vir
ginia State college, the children are
givinig as much as a nickel a piece,
summer school students fifteen cents,
and teachers fifty cents. In this way
it is believed that the people of
Virginia, the native state of the
founder and director of the Associa
tion, will raise a thousand dollar*.
A considerable porton of this is al
ready in hand.
In the District of Columbia a
considerable sum has also been
raised, probably $600 at this date.
Only one real contribution has come
from a teacher at Howard universi
ty, That instithifcion is too bushy
with the usual battles to restore
the spirit of the grand old days.
Most of this amount has come from
through such friends of the work
as J. C. Bruce, L. C. Perry, Walter
L. Smith, Walker L. Savoy, L. C.
Randolph, Eugene A. Clark, Valerie
Chase, J- G. Logan, M. F. Quander,
G. Sn>ith Wormley, and G. C. Wil
kinson. A white friend in that city
has given $225.
The next most active quarter is
at this time are not available. Two
warm supporters of the cause, one
white and the other colored, have
led the way in that city by giving
$100 each. The people there, how
ever, are daily manifesting more and
the Finance commitee sponsoring
the celebration the Twentieth An
niversary of the Association there
friends wil raise a considerable sum
for th.s scientific effort. The people
of Chicago take special pride in the
fact that the Association was organ
ised there by the founder Septem
ber 9, 1915.

Slayer Captured In
New York City
New York City, July 31, (ANP)—
With the capture of Oscar Wilson
here Thursday night, Police believe
they have ended the reign of terror
which has lasted several months and
caused the death of two white
women.
Wilson’s capture followed quickly
in the wake of the murder of a white
woman in St. Nicholas Park when po
lice were told that a man of giant
proportions was seen running from
the scene of the crime. A search re
vealed Wilson, who was placed under
arrest. He told officers that his
name was in Nashville, Tennessee
and that he had been unemployed for
two years. His plight, caused by un
employment, is believed to have af
fected his mentality.
