■REVEALING' uour IPAST, PRESENT anc( EUIPRE •• 9/ A69E' WULACE iMuic^car menf^Laf on *ke. American Otaqc «— —'»■■■, L. S. A.—'If I should go to New York will the dream that I have in mind come to pass? Ans: Yes—go to New' York for it seems to me that you will be given a chance to sing over the AIR as many other AMATUERS are doing. You will be given a fair chance and the public will be your judge. You will be recognized as a very good SINGER. J. C.—I have made a fool of my self and a laughing stock of my community and I want to know if I should marry to end this mess? Ans: It is best that you do not marry anyone until you get entirely over the LOVE AFFAIR that you have just experienced. You would be doing any girl an injustice to marry in your state of mind. Forget the girl that tried to make a fool of you and do not allow yourself to ever see her if possible. It won’t be but a few months until this will blow over. G. T.—Do you think my husband will join his family anytime soon? * Ans: It is revealed to me that your husband will RECOVER from his present ILLNESS and join you and your family before the extreme cold weather of this year. His con dition ie slowly improving. L. S. S.—I would like to know if you think there will be a chance of my entering college? Ans: Not this term — however, it is revealed to me that you will enter your first year of college in the first year of 1936. You will find employment that will make it pos sible for you to save some money and prepare yourself for school next year. A- B. B.—J am in love with a young man and I would like to know if you think that our religion matters ? Ans: Both of you young people are very devout in your religion and you will have to make up your minds to accept only ONE FAITH. Since these religions are very simi lar, I don’t believe either of you would mind giving this much to ward your FUTURE HAPPINESS together. k K. D. S.—I am anxious to know if I will get another job? Ans: It seems to me that you will make a change of employment this year and at this tune you have your APPLICATION in the company that will call you to work. This chance HITTING THE LITTLE FELLOW Tax laws designed to punish big business, under the guise of revenue producing measures, may wreak their principal damage on little busines and on the little fellow— the wage-earner, the small investor, the white-collar worker. In addition, they may make it im possible for the little business and the little fellow ever to go ahead_ to progress, to prosper, to grow. A recent editorial in the Los An geles Times said: “This is a ‘big* country accustomed to doing things in a ‘big’ way. To dwarf such a her itage would he in truth to return us to the horse and buggy days. To go forward, to explore, investigate, ex periment, to attain the heights by trial and error is expensive but nec essary to human progress. “The small, poorly financed busi ness or individual is aften an initial stepping stone to great things. The poor man becomes rich; the small business grows and one day is a ‘big business’ boasting a worth while heritage of accomplishment. There has been incentive all along the line. “It may be wrong, but success, business success at least, is pre dicated upon financial independence. To rule that the small and struggling shall never grow big and aggressive is to knock the props out from under our national habit and set us back a century.” It seems that the whole aim of Politically-minded persons today is to punish, to discourage and to prevent success, to dwarf achievement, to stifle initiative, to throttle ambition, to poison the springs of enterprise. We raise our taxes on “bigness” to point where a man or a corporation, once it gets beyond the size of a cor ner grocery, is just working for the tax collector. "We pass regulatory laws giving political job holders, not executives and stockholders, the final say as to business practices and operations. Whether this represents fascism communism, socialism or any other “ism,” it is directly opposed to every American tradition. And it is a threat to the future of every prin ciple for which our forefathers fought. Notice, Subscribers: If you don’t get your paper by Saturday, 2 p. m-, call Webster 1750. No reduction in subscription unless request is com plied with. will prove profitable financially. M. A. W.—Tell me why this lady across the street talks about me? Ans: She really doesn't want to cause you any unhappiness but she thinks that you are a BIT TOO YOUNG to be going with the boys and has taken it upon herself to tell everyone in your neighborhood. She won’t say anything that will hurt you. L. S. A.—I am so despondent here and I want to know what I should do to get over this feeling that I have? Ans: You just can’t seem to get used to working in the COUNTRY and it would be best for you to give this job up and look for work in the city. “You have enough money to keep you on your feet for a while and it seems to me that you won’t be without work but a few days. C. R.—Will J be able to marry the girl that I promised that I would in j June? Ans: It is best that you get this j • young lady off your mind for her! people sent her AWAY to keep you two from getting married. Her peo ple are trying to give her a college education and they had rather not ; see her marry while she is so very young. You will marry someone around your own age. W. W. X.—Why does my husband w'ant to continue borrowing money on my furniture? Ans: As long as your husband can borrow money to live on he is not going to GET A JOB. When he ; does get this money he never spends j a dime on you and it would be doing him a favor to put a stop to these j loans before you have to pay them [ off yourself. — B. D.

Hofer On September 17, the Constitution j of the United States was 148 years old. Observation of Constitution Day has focused public attention on that great document—and on the dangers that are now’ besetting it. It is no exaggeration to say that Constitutional rights and privileges are menaced—that political experi i mentation with theories of alien 1 orgin are usually the direct anti • thesis of the American scheme of government—and that many of the I politicians who pay lip service to the .Constitution in high-soundng : speeches, are dmong the leaders of I those wrho emasculate it. Some are urging that a Constitu i tional Amendment be passed where : by Congress and the President would ; be given vastly broader powers than ! ! they now possess—in spite of the I fact that such an amendment would ! I very possibly make the Bill of Rights meaningless. Others advo- j ' cate a law depriving the Supreme | Court of its right to pass on the constitutionality of legislation—’ even though that would eliminate the principal reason for the very exist ence of the Court, and make it no different from lower tribunals. Still others are urging new judicial “in terpretations” of Constitutional pro visions whereby the original mean ing would be -warped. And there are those who think it feasible to cir cumvent the Constitution, by politi cal chicanery whereby laws can be kept away from a Supreme Court de cision for a long priod of time, until their unconstitutional ends have been attained. It is inevitable that changes in the Constitution will weaken it—that the protecting arm it now* holds out over human rights, property rights and individual liberties and preroga tives will be made less strong. No document has withstood the vicissi tudes of a changing century and a half so well—none has so complete ly achieved the purposes of free, democratic government The Con stitution is the very soul of America —without it, we would be no differ ent from those other nations whose people are now feeling the mailed fist of dictators, at the expense of freedom of the press, freedom of ac i tion, freedom to live, think and ' speak as one wishes.

American Legion May Ban Discrimination Of Negroes St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 5, (By R. C. Fisher for ANP)—A resolution, disapproving of the discrimination practiced against ex-service men of our Race by white posts of the American Legion in several South ern States, was among the 736 bills of legislation to be considered by Legion convention committees, as 835,000 World War veterans, here for their 17th annual conclave swung in to their regular business session last Wednesday morning. It was a foregone conclusion that the committee on legislation would recommend to the convention floor adoption of a resolution demanding immediate cash payment of the bonus. These resolutions were previously adopted by various posts and later approved by the Eastern States at thair conventions. Plea For Justice. New Jersey has gone on record as one of the state departments to re quest action by the National Legion organization at its convention in St. Louis, to force discriminating states to repeal such laws that deprive any veteran or rights and privileges that all veterans should enjoy. The reso lution was presented by H. A. Brown, commander of Kenneth Hawkins Post No. 61 of Atlantic City and the only member of his Race to be affiliated with the post. Th voting delegates Wednesday numbering 1,207, had an importance which they did not have at the Monday’s meeting. Registration fig ures reached 65,000, of which 850 were of our group. Legion members do not register. Maine, Massachusetts, Connecti cut, New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland registered bitter protests against the “persecution of mem bers of any racial group by any state or nation.” This was in sup port of the resolution offered by the State departrqent of New Jersey. Few Heroes Seen. A bevy of war heroes: Col. “Billy” Warfield, of the Eighth Illinois Regiment; Tom Mays of Chicago, commander of Giles Post; Bernard L. Heiner, of Baltimore, Federal Post No. 19; Clarence Tyd ings, of Baltimore, recipient of the Croix de Guerre and star, and George Johnson of Pasadena, Cal., who served 32 years in the Regular Army and nine and a half months overseas with the 349th Field Artillery, and a number of other distinguished vet erans, expressed individual senti ments toward this greatest of all Legion conventions. The constitution of the Legion was framed here in May, 1919. General Pershing and Enoch Crowder, in charge of the drafts, were natives of Missouri. Through the local Tom Powell Post, which was host to the Col ored legionnaires, many social court- ! esies were extended the visitors.J Godfrey Nicholson is commander of Tom Pawell Post. Mixed Posts Welcomed. From a vantage point, this corre spondent reviewed the big spectacu lar Legon parade unit, last Monday. Here and there an appreciable num ber of our vets could be seen in the line of march and were integral parts of the marching outfits composed of whites. The brass band that headed the en tire Michigan State organization was the championship Detroit outfit of Col. Young Post No. 77, with 65 instruments. A mass of legon post standards, great blue and gold ban ners followed. Giles Post of Chicago is rich in buglers and drummers, and played lively marches. “Tuffy,” giant mas cot of the post, in a red bellhop suit and a red cap, drew much attention. A feature of the Post Employees’ Drum and Bugle Corps of Boston, Mass., was one of its trumpeters, who happened to be a member of our Race, and the only one in that musical outfit. Mixed posts from Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and New Jersey had no difficulty in securing accomoda tions for their entire membership in St. Louis’ leading hotels. NEGRO TEACHERS HON ORED BY JAPANESE By ALICE E. McGEE (For The Associated Negro Press) Editor’s Note—Miss McGee is one of three St. Louis school teachers who spent this summer’s vacation in the Orient, principally in Japan. She was educated at the University of Illinois and the University of Ohi* cago. She is teacher of geography in the Vashon High School. Miss McGee is a member of Pi Gamma Mu, hon orary social science society, the Na tional Educational association, the National Geographic Society, and was for three years national secretary of Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority. The two teachers who accompanied Miss McGee were, Miss L. M. Turner and Miss Isabel Dickson. I found the Japanese the most kindly, courteous people I have ever known. I have traveled in nearly ev ery state in the United States, in Canada, Mexico, the West Indies, the north coast countries of South Ameri ca, the Phillipines, Hawaii and China and nowhere have I found a more kind-hearted people than the Japan ese, nor a group which showed more friendliness to me, Before going to Japan, I had hoped that the knowledge of the condition of the Negro in the United States might excite-the sympathy bf the Jap anese people but J was utterly unpre pared for the profound feeling they showed, once they learned something of the nature of the problems of an other dark-skinned group. There must be two Japans—one the Japan of daring, ruthless mili tary conquests, designed to establish the dignity and prestige of the na tion, the other, the Japan of home makers, the friendly, pious, indus trious natives, the friendliest, clean est, politest people I have ever known. Whether so willed or not, an American Negro, man or woman, who escapes temporarily from Ameri can white prejudice, is a furtive ob server of its possible existence else where. I confess, I was prepared to find racial prejudice in Japan. I did not. Not against the NegTO. If there was any prejudice, it was shown against the white man. The Japanese bitterly resent white America’s treatment of Japanese. They do not go so far as to treat whites discour teously. That would be against the Japanese sense of what is right. They treat whites with politeness because it is a duty to do so, but toward us, as colored Americans, they were ev en finer. They treated us ,as brothers j and sisters. On every occasion, no matter how suspicious, where Japanese, Whites and we colored women were assembl- j ed, the Japanese singled us out for I posts of honor. We seemed to be the ones they were the most proud to' have ’with them. I was particularly impressed by their treatment of us during the ses sions of the Pan-Pacific New Edu cational Conference held in Tokio, August 1- 8, and attracting delegates from all countries bordering on the Pacific Ocean. More than three hun dred delegates attended. Miss Isabel Dickson, critic teacher in the Sim mons Demonstration School in St. Louis, and I, attended as visitors from America and were the only Ne groes present. We attended all of the various ses sions and were treated as though we were the most highly honored guests. At no time did we meet with any dis crimination on the part of the Japan ese and if the people were prejudiced it was certainly in our favor. Only the white Americans showed their prejudices. This they did on more than one occasion* We were receiv ed most cordially everywhere by the Japanese. I was asked to give a word of welcome at the opening meeting. Miss Dickson led a discussion group on problems relating to teacher train ing and later spoke on Soroban, the Japanese method of calculation, as compared with our methods of com putation. A high spot of the conference for me was the farewell luncheon. At this luncheon it was our privilege I to be seated at the honor table with Miss Helen Parkhurst of the Dalton school in the United States, Prof. I and Mrs. Lang- of Fresno, California, Mr. Enaro Noguchi, president of the conference, and His Excellency, Prince Iyesato Tokugawa, honorary president. An American white wo man who was invited to sit at the Prince’s table declined to do so when she learned that she would have to sit next to me. Five persons were called upon for “farewell talks”. I was one of the five. I w-as distinctly impressed with a sense of mission. An American white man, bom in Mobile, Alabama, but now living in Japan and married to a Japanese woman, sent me a note j when he learned that I was one of the five chosen speakers and asked me to remember that J spoke for ten millions. I did speak for the millions of peo ple in the United States and for all Americanes as well. I tried to talk as simply and as dispassionately as I could of my people, of America, and of the ideals of brotherhood and har mony toward which all races and na tions should strive. I sought to pro duce no special effects. Mine I con sidered to be a simple mission, unex pectedly imposed upon me. But my plain, unvarnished plea brought tears to the eyes of Japanese men and wo men who listened to me. I had the feeling that I stood before a new peo ple, whose existence I had hitherto not suspected, a pious, tender, sym pathetic nation in the hearts of whose citizens are watered the principles of brotherly love which most other peo ples give but lip service to.

J AGRICULTURE AND INDUSTRY INTERDEPENDENT In a recent address, Governor Lehman of New York, said: “We have been accustomed to think of agriculture and of industry as dis tinct fields of commercial effort—is things widely apart—having very little, if any, .relationship to each other. We talk of agriculture alone, of industry alone, of commerce alone. That has always seemed to me the wrong point of view. The time is long past -when any part of the producing or consuming groups of our economic structure can fail to affect all other groups. The con sumption of farm products—is in fluenced almost exclusively by the needs of a consuming population, and these needs are obviously inevit ably controlled by earning and spending power of the public. “Out of this there must come to all of us, it seems to me, whether in terested in city bus ness or in farm business, an appreciation of the need for a balanced development between business and agriculture.” Agriculture is now doing fine work in achieving that balanced develop ment through farmer-owned and controlled cooperative associations. These associations are improving farm production methods—they are scientifically adjusting supply to de> mand—and they are helping bring about a sounder relation between the wwholesale and retail prices of farm produce.

Carey, of Carey’s Naborhood Grocery says that he is selling more chickens than he has ever sold in the his tory of his business. He gives two reasons: First, the price of meat has reached such a stupendously high level until it cannot be advantag-eously purchased by the economical housewife; she therefore has resorted to poultry which can be obtained for around 20c lb.; second the quality of Poultry this year is running better than any previous year.
