SINGER’S ART
SUPERB
Marian Anderson’s Second New
York Audience Overflows
America’s Music Spot
New York, Jan. 31—(ANP)
Marian Anderson, contralto, fresh
from her Town Hall triumph of
just three weeks ago, essayed to
enchant another and larger audi
ence at Carnegie Hall Monday- To
put it modestly and at the same
time comprehensively, the singer’s
art was one superb achievement
from beginning to end
•
Of the seventeen numbers list
ed, orlv six composers shared hon
ors, all are either celebrated or
well known, two of them immort
als. Miss Anderson’s Bach con
sisted for in opening group of
Have Mercy Lord. My Heart Ever
Faithful (and how personal her
delivery of this was!) and Komm
Suosser Toil; her Brahms, i!mmer
Leise wird mein S- Mummer. Dcr
Sehmidt, Die Mainncht. These to
gether with Richard Strauss, Mor
gen and Zveignung made up the
second group. Then came Hum
mel's Halleluia. The final fourth
and fifth lists comprised works by
Sadoro and Harry Burleigh: Era
Amuri Tarantella by the former,
and Swing Low Sweet Chariot, I
Don’t Feel No Ways Tired. Deep
River and Heav’n Heav’n by the
latter. “Amuri, Amuri,” was a
touching piece of dramatization
and shared honors with the rapid
diction of the Tarantella
The well known “Deep River”
probably best represented Mr.
Burleigh.
Marian Anderson’s interpreta
tions have risen to great heights
within recent years. She not only
has won the plaudits of the public
but the approval of distinguished
vocal pedagogues as well, which
is the more substantial recommen
dation- A sold-out house in these
tim.es was probably not anticipat
ed and so enthusiasm ran high
Some of it got into the box' of
fi e and the courtesy press tickets
intended for this reviewer were
sold (miintentionally we hope!)
with the others. So that “we” were
compelled to stand during the per
formance. Two well known max
ims apply very pointedly here:
“ ’tis an ill wind that blows no
one good”, and “Distance lends
enchantment”. We were able dur
ing the “standing act” to hear
Miss Anderson from various points
of the auditorium- To those who
were close by the intense sincerity
of her art was most apparent,
to the rest the exquisite beauty
of her voice ever-prevalent was
unmistakeably obvious and en
trancing.
In the matter of encores she
was deeply gracious. Besides hav
ing to repeat Bach’s “Komm, Sues
ser Tod” and Brahm’s “Der Sch
mied” Miss Anderson followed
Hummel’s “Halleluia” with the
“Swiss Echo Song,” Sadero’s “Tar
antella” with her accompanist’s
Finnish folksong, and the last of
the spirituals with the “Cuckoo
Song” and “Will O’ The Wisp”
made popular by her years gone
by (but oh, how differently sound
ing now) Dvorak’s “Songs My
Mother Taught Me”, and “My
Soul Done Anchored in The Lord "
KostI Vehanen, from Finland,
followed Miss Anderson faithfully
throughout

Deplores Homicide
Record Of South
Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 1, (A
N. P.) In a ringing indictment
against the homicide record in
Southern states, as indicated in a
recent survey made by the United
States Department of Census, the
Birmingham News, editorially here
Tuesday attributed the high rate
in these states to the wanton kill
ing of Negroes by whites and the
fact that Negroes hold ilfe cheap
ly when only members of the rac
ial group are involved.
The survey pointed out that the
highest homicidal rates were found
in Alabama, the District of Colum
bia, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky,
Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennes
see, with the lowest rates found
in Wisconsin, Vermont, South Da
kota, Rhode Island, North Dako
ta, New Hampshire, Nebraska,
Minnesota and Iowa.
Whites Kdl Negroes in Large
Numbers
Discussing the reason for this de
plofable condition the editorial
declared: “Students of this prob
lem recognize the fact that the
racial situation in the South is
largely responsible for the high
homicide rate in this section. This
is primarily due to the high ho
icide rate among Negroes. White
people kill Negroes to an appal
ling extent in the South and Ne
groes kill white people at a rate
that is alarmingly high, but the
biggest factor in the situation is
the shocking frequency with which
Negroes kill other Negroes.
“Among themselves Negroes
hold life cheaply. It is a distress
ing situation which has received
much attention from both white
and Negro leaders but not nearly
so much as it should have.”
Cites Heningburg’s Plea
The plea made by Alphonse
Heningburg, director of the Per
sonal Department of Tuskegee In
stitute, made hero in an address
recently, for Negroes to cease to
kill each other, was cited and
lauded.
“He pointed out" said the edit
orial “that murders among Ne
groes overshadowed the njumber
of lynchings and he appealed to
the Negroes of Birmingham to
cease murdering themselves. It is
an appeal which should be taken
up by every Negro leader in the
southern communities, for itis
largely by precept and example of
the more enlightened memebrs of
the race that this evil situation
must be remedied.”
South’s Suicide Record Lowest
Referring to the fact that the
Southern states had the lowest
suicidal rate, it was pointed out
that “if the South has the worst
homicidal record it has the best
record in the matter of suicide.
Just as the racial situation ac
counts for the higher homicidal
rates in the South, so does it go
far to explain the low suicide rec
ord- If Negroes kill one another
all too freely, they seldom take
their own lives. A Negro suicide
is a rarity.
“It has always been assumed
that the low suicide rate amnog
Negroes is due to the tempera
ment of the race. Negroes are a
happy spirited people. They are
not as a rule subject to the morb
idity that so often leads white
people to commit suicide. Troubles
do not weigh as heavily upon their
minds”
Commentators on the editorial
attributed the wanton killing of
Negroes by whites in the South
nd the slaying among themselves,
to the laxity of the law. If was
pointed out that when a Negro is
! killed by a white man, even for the
most trivial reason is the courts
jare liberal in dealing with the
white slayer and if a Negro is
arrested for the murder of another
Negro, the attitude generally is
that “just another Negro is dead,
and the perpetrator of the crime
is either released or given a light
sentence. A correction of these
two conditions, the commentators,
declared would go far to reduce
the homicidal rate in Southern
states as is evidenced by the fact
that those states having the low
est rates are those states in which
the laws against murder are the
most stringent.

A. K. A.’s See Mrs.
Roosevelt About
Discrimination
Washington, Feb. 1, (A- N. P)
Complete details of the visit of
Miss Ida L. Jackson and Dr Dor
othy Ferebee of the Alpha Kappa
Alpha sorority to Mrs- Franklin
Delano Roosevelt at the White
House following that group’s an
nual boule at Richmond recently,
and their discussion with her of
the Mississippi health project and
railway discrimination were re
vealed to the Associated Negro
Press this week.
The nation’s first lady chatted
without apparent reserve and she
seemed extremely interested in the
health project, an undertaking
which revealed many of the sordid
peonage and suffering in the Miss
issippi cotton areas.
Funds Asked
‘We realize federal monies are
appropriated to the South for var
ious projects that should benefit
the Negro as well as others, but
unfortunately these monies rare
ly filtered through or down to
where the Negro received any ben
'efit,” Bliss Jackson, who is the
national head of the A. K. As-,
asserted ” We feel that this pro
ject proves that Negroes can go
into the'South and work with and
for Negroes.
“We believe that the time has
como for the government to real
ize that if Negroes are to obtain
any benefits or have a chance, Ne
groes must be assigned to posts
so as to carry out such a plan ”
Bfr- Roosevelt intimated that she
considered the idea feasible and
suggested that this or a similar
plan might be worked out as a P.
W. A. project, if there were avail
able enough Negro workers ca
pable of conducting the project.
She reminded her visitors they
would have to be on relief rolls to
bo eligible for PWA employment.
As an alternative, the president’s
wife suggested that the sorority
continue to sponsor and supervise
the project with paid assistants
who were qualified and on relief.
Tell of Jim Crow
The two visitors also told the
First Lady of their trip here from
the convention in Richmond dur
ing which they were crowded into
a small Jim Crow coach inadequate
for the journey Miss Jackson said
she was informed that white wo
men in the South have stated they
are willing for Negro women to
not the same- The sorority leader
pointed out it was not a matter
of sharing a Pullman car with
whites but the right to have equal
accommodations for travel and
comfort as those provided for the
other patrons
Mrs. Roosevelt told her visitors
she was interested in their prob
lem but suggested that some such
organization of white women as
the Women’s Federation of Clubs,
might be able to handle the prob
lem better than could the soror
; ity
The two sorors took the grant
ing of the interview with them at
a time when Mrs. Roosevelt’s cal
endar was crowded, as evidence
of her genuine interest in the
health project.

SAM KLAVER
IN RACE FOR
LEGISLATURE
Omaha Attorney Files As Can
didate For Unicameral
Legislature
__ i
From Sixth District |
Mr. Klaver, In Filing Issued ■
Following Statement
I nm filing for the mti-cnmeral
legislature, because I believe that
I can be of service to the people
of my district, of Omaha, and of
the state. In representing Doug
las County, I shall endeavor to
co-operate with legislators from
other counties in the passing of
laws that will benefit the entire
state. I believe that legislators |
from Omaha should be able to work j
in harmony with the legislators'
from other parts of Nebraska, be- i
cause we have so many interests ;
in common.
My platform, to which I promise i
to adhere, if I am elected, is:
1— No increase in taxes. No new
forms of taxes that will merely
shift the burden of taxation,
without lessening it. A careful
study of our taxation system—
where and how it may be im
proved and simplified.
2— The enaction of adequate and
workable old-age pension laws,
that will insure the aged people
of our state proper care in
their declining years.
3— Simplification of state and
local governments .A uniform
accounting and budget system
for counties, cities, towns, vil
lages, and school districts. Con
solidation of counties and public
offices, when practical and de
sirable.
4— Proper drafting of laws, so
that It will not be necessary to
hold special sessions of the
legislature, in order to correct
obvious defects in them.
5— Opposition to all laws that
would work a hardship upon
labor, or industry.
