ALTA VESTA A GIRL’S PROBLEMS By Videtta Ish (For the Literary Service Bureau) From Alta Vesta to Her Father— No. 14 Dearest Fa*h r: Your letter made me so sad, not becaose I can’t go with these girls and help them to be good. It is because I think of my own dear good father and what you and rAunt Cornelia told me of my dear Mother, and when J think of this I pity these girls and wish they all had good fathers and mothers like mine, and good and kind Aunt Cornelias like mine. Now, Daddy dear, I will do just whet you say. I always want to do what you say because you always know what is right and because I love you so much that I don’t want ever to make you mad at me. That would nearly kill me. But, Father, I don’t have to not speak to these girls and be mean to them, do I? Now% for Raster, I want a newr dress, new* shoes, new hat and gloves. Other girls of our neighbors will have new things and I know you don’t want your little girl to be laughed at because she wont have no new Easter things. Love and kisses to you, Daddy. Your loving, Alta Vesta Ethical Funda mentalism Bv R. A. Adams (For the Literary Service Bureau) Now, we read of “The New- Morali ty”; “Changing Morals”, and of new ethical standards to take the place of those “wrhich have outlived their day”, and are fit for nothing but the ethical dump yard. But, to the more conservative of us. these thngs seem to be a terrible and dangerous diver sion from things w-hich are right and w-ays that have proved to be save— the safest of all human construction. The propounders of these new eth ical theories tell us that w-e are far behind, but we of the slow-er speed contend that wrhile customs and even standards change fundamentals are enter nal. In our ethical degeneracy people compliment when dishonesty is used. Individuals in high civic positions op enly break the Commandments and loudly confess it. Society now sanc tions divorce for just any cause, and enters no condemnation against mul tiplicity of marriages. In these re spects customs and standards have o changed and people have changed their attitude toward these serious departures But the fundamienal prin ciples of truth, honor, honesty, just ice, equity and sex purity are un changed. And they wall not change. More, both culpability and responsi bility are to be reckoned with by those who surrender to the spirit of the times and turn away from ethic al standards.

Chicago, Sept. 11, (ANP)—Con siderable uneasiness exists in the ranks of the dining car waiters of this railroad center as they specu late upon the final results of the drive being made by the American Federation of Labor to organize dining car waiters and cooks. Waiters w'ho form a more or less preferred class of railroad em ployes have been organized for years, first in locals upon the va rious roads w'hose terminals are here and secondly in the National Brotherhood of Dining Car Em ployees. Both working conditions and salaries have been notably im proved by the efforts of the waiters’ organizations which in every case have been headed by colored men. In tact, in some instances, as in the caseo of the Northwestern railroad, for example, w'here white cooks were employed, the colored representa tive oi the waiters represented the white cooks in negotiations with railroad officials. When the railway labor act was passed, the A. F. of L. notably pre- ! judiced the interest of Negro workers except in those crafts where the colored men are in a majority, seeing a field for addition al memberships, establissed an off shoot of their Hotel Alliance and Bartender’s International, which they called its Dining Car Division. Chicago waiters declare that while this is in effect a Jim Crow' Division, the white cooks immediately as sumed a strong position in its make- j up. When the New York Central committe was made up, there were ^oui wdiite men and two colored. W. L. Wilson, general chairman of the Northwestern Railroad Din ing Car Men, and Joel Miles, secre tary of the Rock Island men and acting secretary of the National Brotherhood of Dining Car Em ployees, were outspoken in their condemnation of the A. F. of L. and its tactics. They charge the white labor organization of flooding Chi cago with white organizers who have gone among *;he colored men spreading false reports and making premises which they declare will not be fulfilled. Already, the Federa tion has invaded the ranks of em ployees on one major railroad, the New 'iork Central, and wrested con trol of the union away from colored hands, defeating Rienzi Lemus, president of the Dining Car Waiters Brotherhood, which operates in the East, and who sought to take over the company union when the new railway labor act left the way open. Lemus’s organization represented the eastern section of the road upon which Negro cooks work, and re ceive $125 per month. The A. F. of L. took over the Western end where cooks are paid $135 and persuaded the men to desert Lemus’s group be cause of the $10 differential, though it is claimed that Lemus’s group had been responsible for most of the advantages wrested from the com pany through years of negotiations. The New York Central men voted to* join the A. F. of L. but are new declared to be sorry. A contract was negotiated. Jt is the same con tract exactely which the men had be fore with the exception of a ten cent raise on the month. Under their own leadership, the men were earn ing $62.50 per month. Now, they make $62.60. This contract which the A. F. of L. has negotiated is a tricky thing,” declared Mr, Miles. “It is a duplicate of the contract which we negotiated years ago with the exception of one or two minor changes which an ag gressive could have secured with ease. It is dangerous to the seniority of the colored man. We must con stantly be on our guard lest a shift be made from colored cooks to white. In the past, it is the white cooks and stewards who turned waiters in and whom we had to fear. We have no reason to assume that they will play fair with us when we place the fate of our jobs in their hands. “ It was colored men who started the organized labor movement among the colored men on our railroads. We risked our jobs. We didn’t have the support of these very white men who now seek to organize and control our jobs. “Let the A. F. of L. admit colored men into the scores of crafts from which they are now excluded. Every experience which we have had with the A. F. of L. has been to our detri ment. We warn waiters against this invasion.” Notice, Subscribers: If you don’t get your paper by Saturday, 2 p. m.> call Webster 1750. No reduction in subscriptions unless request is com plied with. Joe Lewis Trains For Max Baer (C<ntinued from Page 1) ing his hapless spar mates into in sensibility, Louis confined his activi ties for the afternoon to boxng, giv ing one of the best exhibitions seen at the camp since his arrival more than a week ago to prepare for his fight with Maxie Baer. It was with Paul Cavalier, white of Patterson, N. J., that Joe made the best showing, Cavalier, who has worked with Baer, and other out standing heavyweights, is considered by many as one of the smartest and cleverest boxers in the heavyweight division today. Louis shook Cavalier up with a couple of stiff rights and lefts, but Cavalier was also able to get in some timely blows. The Brown Bomber was out in front on points when the bell closed the bout. Louis boxed two rounds with Lou (Tiger) Flowers, two with George Glover, and one with Roy Williams. Williams also stepped up the pace with the Tan Thundrebolt. Newsreel Cameras Set Up Roused to anger because of the in feriority of his sparring mates, Louis belted Bobbie Dean and Tiger Flow ers into unconsciousness in his work out Saturday. A flock of newsreel cameras were set up on the lot to get Louis in his workout. The forme of his hapless spar mates recumbent on the floor of the ring was the proper climax for the camera men. Louis was the recipient of an hon or which seldom, if ever, falls to the lot of prize fighters. "his honor was in the form of an ^ ' iorsement by a large delegation of delegates to the National Baptist Convenion which closed is sessions in New Y ork last week. The delegation, consisting of more than 200 minis ters and laymien, visited the camp Saturday afternoon to pay homage to Louis. The Rev. T. S. Harten, pastor of Holy Trinity Baptist church in Brooklyn, N. Y., headed the delega tion which arrived in two buses. They were accorded all the privileges of tho camp as guests of Louis and his managers. Group Marvels at ‘Bomber’ After viewing Louis in action against his sparring mates, the dele gation as a whole, marveled at his prowess, especially his hitting pow er. Louis knocked out two of his op ponents. The Rev. Mr. Harten then assembl ed his delegation around Louis, and in glowing terms, eulogized the chief contender for the heavyweight crown. H. M. Smith, dean of the School of Relgion, Bishop college, Marshall. Texas, also spoke in praise worthy terms, both speakers urging Louis to continue in the stride he has followed since donning the boxing gloves. The delegation left the camp grounds singing the praise of Louis atter having a picture made with the Brown Bomber. Louis, his mother, Mrs. Lily Brooks, and other members of his family, are members of the Calvary Baptist church of Detroit. Dr. McMillan Visits Convention A few day ago Dr. Aaron Mc Millan left the city to visit New York on some business and other matters of importance; while these he attended the National Baptist Convention ,which was attended by approximately 15,000 people from all over the country. Dr. McMillan spoke on “The Welfare of Africa and the Ethio pian situation! He also confered with the Africa^ Welfare Com mittee in the interest of Ethiopia. He stated that a powerful address was given at the convention by L. K. Williams, who was presi dent of the National Baptist Con vention, and that it was agreed and voted that a portion of this address wrhieh touched on what might result from an Italo-Ethio pian war, be sent to Secretary Hull in Washington. Dr. Will iams in a very eloquent plea, stated that America should do something to stop this conflict between Italy and Ethiopia, be cause out of this conflict might grow other conflicts between the races of color and the white race all over the world. •Dr. McMillan was gone seven days. CHICKENS MOST ECONOMIC T. Carey, of Carey's Naborhood GGrocery says that is selling more chickens than he has ever sold in the his tor yof his business. He gives tow reasons ■' first, the price of emat has erached such a stupendously high level until it cannot be advantageousl ypurchased by the economical housewife; she therefore has resorted to poultry which can be obtained for arourd 20c lb.; second the quality of oultrpy this year is running better than any previous year.
