Yours N Johnson CHILDREN’S BOOK HAS INSULTING WORD IN IT New York, Oct 24—A ipromise that the next edition of a children’s book, “The Adventures of Wong Wing Wu,” will not contain the word “nigger” was made to the NAACP by the Artist and Writers Guild, Inc., of Poughkeepsie, N. Y j publishers. The editors wrote the NAACP that they did not realize when the book was in preparation that the word carried with it any derogatory meaning, but abated that since receiving the complaint they had investigated and found that the word does have “unplea sant associations in many commun ities” and that they will change it in the next edition The word was discovered when Miss Catherine T. Freland, sec’y to Walter White of the NAACP, bougrt the book and began reading it one evening to her little nephew Geyser Forms Giant Mushroom photo by Union Pacific' R*imono AN UNUSUAL PHOTOGRAPH of the world famous Old faithful Gayser In Yellowstone National Park.

BOYS AND CRIME DISCUSSED AT “Y” Chicago, Oct. 21 (ANP)—Georg, E Q Johnson, former United States District Attorney and Federal Court Judge here, who as federal preset utcr sent A1 Capone and many of Chicago’s worst gangsters to prison, was principal speaker at the metobc—ship rally of the Wabash Vvcnut; YMOA here Thursday night. Judge Johnson said that out of hio vast experience, he had grown ftom believing that crime was a by-product of civilization to the realization that poor neighborhoods, vicious economic and moral condi tions, run down homes, and neg lected boys and girls were the chief contributors to crime “Race does not matter," said Judge Johnson. “Show me your delinquent boy or girl of today, and I'H show you your gangster of ten years later-” The local campaign marked the YMCA’s 25th anniversary, the Chi cago building being the first erect ed by Julius Rosenwald- Three hundred men and women crowded the banquet table as the campaign got under way with great enthusi sm. Other speakers were Civil Ser vice Commissioner Wendall E Green, Attorney William Haynes, and Joseph Jefferson, of the “Y” staff, who gave an inspiring ac count of his trip to Berlin and Paris last summer. “KING COTTON“ WILL HAVE TO SHARE THRONE Birmingham, Ala., Oct 24 (C)— "King Cotton” is finally toppling from his throne in the south. The Birmingham Age-Herald said edi torially last Saturday: “King Cot ton must share his throne- In Ala bama the facts are overwhelming We must face them- That does not mean that the industry of this atate is no longer agriculture. As a mat ter of fact It is. But beside raising cotton, Alabama is suited in every way to become one of the first cat tle raising states in the country. Corn, oats and hay thrive all over this state,, particularly in the Black Belt And there is money to be got from the meat markets of the world” Mrs A- Williams, foi-merly of 2423 Erskine street, trow of 2216 Grace street, and Mrs Adell Saun— ders.sisters, left Omaha Tuesday, October 20tl> at 8t00 p m. for New Orleans to attend the funeral of their brother- They will be gone about a month.

Despite the fact that no married women are supposed to teach in Kansas City schools, Mrs Perry has been retained as a substitute teacher in recognition cf the extra ordinary work done by her along that line. She was the first Home Economics teacher the city had Prior to that she was a Home Ec onomics teacher in Lincoln univer sity, Jefferson City, Mo. Some three weeks ago Mrs Ferry was notified to report to the National Republican headquarters at Chicago. From there she began her tour It is Mrs. Perry’s earnest desire to put over the program fostered by her grandfather and to offset the terrible onslaught brought about by the Democrats- It is ridiculous, she will tell you, for a person to say he owes nothing to the Republican par ty—we who have so recently seen Emancipation. She feels as the Hon- Perry Howard said that there, are no Democratic born Negroes— but he Negro Democrat of today is nothlhg but a “mad” or “sore Re publican. The Republicans are facing an issue today never before faced since before Emancipation To sit idly by when thousands of other Republeans are making such a va liant effort to keep the head of this grand old party above the wa ter would be a reflection upon her and upon the principles for which her grandfather represented Mrs- Perry stated Dr. Perry is recognized through out the country as one of the lead ing physicians and skilled surgeons the race has ever produced His Wheatley Provident hospital has served for a number of years as a training school for nurses, and gives to our young Negro physi cians an opportunity for internship.
