W. R. C.—I am somewhat puzzled
as to how my girl friend acts, and I
would like for you to give me some
light on the subject.
Ans: Your girl friend does not
trust you—Everytime you take her
out to a movie or any place she feels
that she needs a chaperon- You can
have a lot more fun if you’ll get a
girl friend that doesn’t have to TAKE
HER LITTLE SISTER WITH HER
everywhere she goes.
C. L. R.—I would like for you to
tell me what to do, and whether or
not I will get what was left me?
Ans:—Yes, you’ll get the property
that was left you but you’ll have to
go through a LAW SUIT in order to
secure it. I advise you not to tell
your friend about what has happen
ed—If she had been much of a friend
to you she would never have told
on you to “L”.
D. R.—<1 have been very much in
love with a man and want to know
if I will ever be with him again?
Ans:—You haven’t seen this man
for a long time and he has almost
put you out of his mind completely—
His interest is centered around HIS
WIFE and he is no longer in love
with you. Forget him—You’ll never
be together as you desire.
R. M.—I am writing to you regard
ing my work, and I would like for
you to give me some information
about it. Should J keep what I have?
Ans:—By all means, KEEP YOUR
JOB—Your chances are very slim for
getting the work you had last year.
It is my opinion that you would be
very dissatisfeid if you made that
change.
G. O.—-Do you see any success for
me in the future?
Ans:—Not as a BOXER, for even
though you are interested in. this
sport, you will profit very little fi
nancially from it—However, you’ll
-do well with the job in the place you
have in mind.
M. L. P.—Will I get hold of a suf
ficient sum of money within the next
two or three weeks ?
Ans:—Not without MAKING A
LOAN—I advise you not to take the
trip home to see your folks until you
can save enough money for your ex
penses there and back. It will be more
difficult than you realize to PAY
BACK A LOAN.

Youth Sentenced
For “Ethiopian
Italian Racket”
New York City, Oct. 12—ANP
—Lawrence Bridges and James
Harvey, who were arrested in
July for operating a shake-down
game, w7ere sentenced to indefi
nite terms in the City Reforma
tory here. Wednesday by Judge
Otto A. Rosalsky.
Using the—at that time—“im
pending conflict’' between Italy
and Ethiopia, the youths devised
a shakedown game with Italian
business men in Harlem as the
victims. Armed with the facts in
the trouble between Italy and
Ethiopia, they "would call upon an
Italian merchant and tell him that
if he did not pay them off they
would incense Negroes against
him to such an extent that he
would be driven out of business.
Ice men were the chief vic
tims and before they were arrest
ed ten had paid off to keep from
being driven out of business and
his patronage turned over to a
Negro competitor. Police testify
ing at the trial Wednesday said
that in Bridges’ room was found
a note book with the proposed
victims listed and facts as to their
attitude toward Negroes and the
Ethiopian situation.
While shaking down Nick Mag
istrate, the tenth ice man, they
were placed under arrest and
have been locked up since then.
In the meantime, police were busy
working on the case to unearth
other victims as Magistrate indi
cated that he would not prosecute
the offenders. All he wanted was
to be let alone and permitted to
sell ice in Harlem. James Ricco,
P however, was a bit diffeent and
when asked if he would prosecute
the youths he readily agreed and
declared further that in addition
to threatening to drive him out of
business the youths had stated
that they were going to set fire
to his house.
40 Hour Week May
Get Jobs For 25,000
Postal Workers
Washington ,Oct. 12—ANP—
A total of 25,000 additional postal
workers may be added to the U.
S. Payrolls with the enactment of
the 40 hour week on Oct. 1, a sur
vey of the field shows.
Previously postal employes lab
ored 44 hours weekly. The new
schedule means a reduction of one
eleventh from the old order. It
has, in effect, taken away one
out of every 11 employes prev
iously working. With approxi
mately 275,000 in the nation, the
theoretical reduction is 25,000
which means that number would
have to be hired to keep normal
conditions. Whether or not the
estimated 20,000 substitute work
ers will be given full time employ
ment is not known.
However, colored stand to gain
either way if more workers are
added. They will also benefit by
the cutting of hours giving all
workers an extra four hours week
for personal business.
Proverbs and Parables
By A. B. Mann
(For the Literary Service Bureau)
See and Don’t See
Reduced to its final analysis this
means attend to your own business
and let other people’s business alone.
Again, it is an admonition to re
frain from criticism of other people’s
faults or exposure of their weakness
es. Acting on this advice would ob
viate much of confusion and of hard
feelings and would contribute to the
amity of the world. But it should not
be interpreted to encourage shutting
one’s eyes to things which are wrong
and against which protest should be
made.
The case has been watched with
interest and declared to have been
one of many rackets with the
Ethiopian-Italian situation as the
background.
L. D. R.—I have in mind to make
a change and I am wondering if I
am too old or not?
Ans: THIRTY-FIVE years of age
is not a bit too old to break up house
keeping and move to another city—
You’ll thoroughly enjoy living in
WASHINGTON, D. C.
L. A. D.—Do you think what I
have on my mind will do me any
good?
Ans:—A trip will be most enjoy
able for you, but it will be of very
little help toward curing your sick
ness—a good medical Doctor will
help you more than a change of cli
mate.
B. T.—Please tell me if my hus
band still loves me or not and if we
will ever go back together again or
not?
Ans:—Your husband loves you very
much but he has never had much use
for his in-laws. I am happy to predict
that you and your husband will make
a start all over again shortly after
the fall months—I advise you to get
a place of your own AFTER THIS
RECONCILIATION.
C. T.—Will my friend ever come
back? I am sorry now for the way
I treated her.
Ans:—You certainly gave your girl
friend the shock of her life—After
living with you for three years, she
had no dea you would deceive her so.
She appears to have moved to an
other city and has no desire to come
back—It will be hard for her to for
give you for DELIBERATELY TAK
ING HER SWEETHEART AWAY
FROM HER.
N. T.—I was offered a position and
would like to know if I should accept
it? It doesn’t seem to be exactly
right?
Ans:—You are exactly right about
this position for it was not offered
to you in GOOD FAITH—I advise
you to stay from those two men fol
they aren’t up to any good at all.

S. Caolina Pastor
Tells Roosevelt
About Conditions
Columbia, S. C., Oct 12, (ANP)—
Conditions have improvevd but
there is yet need for more work, the
Rev. Alphonso S. Powe, pastor of
the Ladson Presbyterian church,
told President Franklin D. Roose
velt in reply to the President’s let
ter to the clergy of the country. The
letter was as follows:
‘‘It is indisputable that conditions
have greatly improved in this vicin
ity during your administration. Yet
there is much more that needs to be
done and I am confident that you
will exert every effort to do in the
next four years which it seems you
are destined to serve.
“At present in this community
there is much delay in getting
projects approved under the works
program.
Authority in Putting people to
work is greatly divided. The unem
ployed are sent from place to place
seeking work. There are few
projects on which unskilled workers
are employed.
■‘Individuals who are given work
are given little or no security in
their positions. There is great suf
fering among people who live in low
er economic levels who are not
eligible for the relief rolls. Wages
as paid by local industries are not
sufficient for clothes and food and
s’leJter. Thousands of school chil
dren are without school books. No
provision is being made for them.
Domestic servants and tenant farm
ers still belong to the forgotten
man’s strata. This group in many
instances iB being greatly exploited.
“Those conditions may never be
ameliorated, but I believe profoundly
that a closely supervised bureau
system designed to carry out the
social security program and to ad
minister relief operated directly
from the White House would speed
up social stability in small com
munities and the nation as a whole.

Jim Crow At
Labor Convention
Atlantic City, N. J., Oct. 12,
(ANP)—With, t h e establishment of
local headquarters at the Arctic
Avenue Y. M. C. A., the National
Urban League began its organized
lobbying against jhn crow union
practices at the national convention

ers is Lester B. Granger, secretary
of the worker’s bureau. Executive
secretaries of several eastern
branches of the organization are

of New York City; Robert J. Elzy,
of Brooklyn; Harold A. Lett, of
Newark; Edward S. Lewis, of
Baltimore, and Donald Wyatt,
Philadelphia. These rn^en are per
sonally contacting officers of in
ternational and national unions in an
attempt to get their support on the
matter.
Thousands of circulars are being
used in a direct appeal to the 5,000
A. F. of L. delegates present. They
are being distributed at the conven
tion, on the boardwalk, and in the
street.
Scottsboro De
cision Echoes In
Mississippi
Clarkdale, Miss., Oct. 12, (ANP)
—Counsel for the defense filed a
motion here Tuesday to quash the
indictment of Ferde Pearson and
Roosevelt Moon for the murder of a
white man, on the grounds that
there were no Negroes on the jury
which brought in the indictment
therefore they had been deprived of
“due process of law.”
Pearson and Moon are charged
with the murder of a white merchant.
At the first hearing they were in
dicted charged with first degree
murder. Defense attorneys in the
motion filed claim that the list of
jurors submitted by the board of
supervisors for consideration in
cluded no Negroes and that the list
had been prepared with a distinct in
tention of omitting the names of
Negroes.
Much interest is being manifested
in the case, this being the first time
that the decision of the Supreme
Court in the Scottsboro case has
been brought up in this county. The
records reveal there are more than
100 qualified Negro electors in
Coahoma.

Girl and Boy Hear Voice of Love—
Parents Pride Objects—Love, Good
Character, Good Job Good Enough
—Take Each Other “For Better,
For Worse”
Maxie Miller: I am in love with a
girl of a good family. My family is
as good as hers but we are poor and
her father has a nice home and con
siderable money. I have good health
and good character. But her folks
want her to marry some big bug.
She is willing to marry me and I have
a good job and can take good care
of her. I am 25 and the girl is 23.
Now Miss Miller, will you tell us
just what we ought to do? I think
we will take your advice.—Dan Web
ster.
Dan Webster: You make a good
case and I am on your side. You and
the girl are old enough to know your
own mind. If you have good charact
er and a good job, and you love each
other, there is no reason why you
should not take each other “for bet
ter, for worse”. If it is just a matter
of pride, then the voice of love should
be heard—and heeded. Take her Dan,
and here’s wishing you health, pros
perity and abundant happiness.—

Spaulding: Tells
Harlemites To
Get Together
New York City, Oct. 12, (ANP)—
“Negro citizens in Harlem have a
wonderful opportunity for develop
ing their economic freedom, provid
ing they table all of their differ
ences, get their heads together and
go to work” said C. C. Spaulding,
president of the North Carolina Mu
tual Insurance Company, in a state
ment here last week.
Mr. Spaulding has spent several
weeks here studying conditions and
was giving his hearers the benefit of
the “way an outsider sees things in
Harlem.” These views included “that
too many are living the wrong kind
of life; that there are too many pet
ty jealousies which tend to retard
progress, and that too many per
mitted a color complex to cripple
united action.”

CHICKENS MOST ECONOMIC
T. 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 advantageously 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.
