Take Stand for Negro
Birmingham. May 21 (ANP)—
An outstanding1 feature of the
quadrennial episcopal address de
livered here recently at the Genial
Conference of the Methodist Episco
pal church, Sout, was the stand
taken by the College of Bishops
concerning the rights and privile
ges of America’s 12 million Ne
groes. three-fourthg of whom live
in the territory of the ME Chueh,
South. Alluding, doubtless, to anti
lynching laws the Bishop said,
“Civilization owes theNegro as
sured justice in the broad world
of economic life and at the court
house door. We owe him protect
in against any legal extra attack
upon his person or property."
Concerning the advancement of
the Negro race the episcopal ad
dress continued. "Ilis progress is
gi eater than marked by other min
ority and subject people in the pre
vious history of the world. The
Negro wants good wages, good
schools, better housing, wholesome
recreation justice in and out of
courts, a larger share of civic m
provements and a chance to make
the best of himself.
“Public utilities, such as ehools,
sewers, water connection sidewalks
parks and playgrounds are very
inadequately suppplied to the Ne
gro districts of our cities, while
the appropriations for welfare
services are by no means admin
istered on any basis of general
need. The fact that the white man
pays most of the tax is no suffici
ent justification for such a 'as*
difference in the distiibut'on of its
herpfits. We owe his children a
farly equal opportunity for educn
tion and self-realization. We ow<
him better housing and a fairei
distribution of the services for the
public good. We owe the Negro the
privileges and responsibilities of a
citizen, for his own good and ou's,
•s he may be able to qualify undev
»nv proper standards of citizen
hip.”

Beware Coughs
from common colds
That Hang On
No matter how many medicines
you have tried for your cough, chest
cold, or bronchial irritation, you can
get relief now with Creomulsion.
Serious trouble may be brewing and
you cannot afford to take a chance
with any remedy less potent than
Creomulsion, which goes right to
the seat of the trouble and aids na
ture to soothe and heal the inflamed
mucous membranes and to loosen
and expel the germ-laden phlegm.
Even if other remedies have failed,
don’t be discouraged, try Creomul
sion. Your druggist is authorized to
refund your money if you are not
thoroughly satisfied with the bene
fits obtained from the very first
bottle. Creomulsion is one word—not
two, and it has no hyphen in it.
Ask for it plainly, see that the name
' on the bottle is Creomulsion, and
you’ll get the genuine product and
the relief you want. (Adv.)
