BLACK, A.S.CA.P. ^ , -— From Dairy to Music—and Back *- —■ By Daniel I. McNamara DON'T try to "understand” music . . . enjoy it! Dr. Frank J. Black, a.s.c.a.p., musical director, composer, conduc tor, und business executive extra ordinary, believes that In mn&ic as In other things one man's meat is another man's poison. Black says that regardless of its technical structure, all music re solves itself into two classes—the music one likes, the music one does not like. And he believes its prime function is to be enjoyed. Thus, in the vast stream of music flowing daily through the channels which he supervises, is to be found music that ttppeals to evpry variety of music lover. Black himself, a brilliant artist, writes and orches ' trates in virtually every idiom. He spends an average of more than 12 i hours a day in his office or in the . various broadcasting studios of NBC. Black’s Quaker parents mistak enly hailed him as successor to his father’s successful dairy business when he was born in Philadelphia, November 28th, 1894. He was I. graduated front Haverford College J. as a chemist, but from early child i hood had displayed talent in music. * At 6 he had mastered the piano, and ■ at 9 he stole away to a neighbor hood motion picture house to piny i piano until his father hauled him , home. At 12 lie was a church singer ; and organist, and while he was com j pieting his high school studies he i commuted to become the favorite * pupil of Hafael Joseffy, famous Hun • garlan pianist in New York. ! He forsook chemistry to become (3/i(sic Features & 1— — an orchestra leader, first in Hr^ risburg, then in New York a.'!a Philadelphia. A pioneer in radio he achieved such prestige that in 1932 he was selected to be NBC's musical director. He has been hon ored with musical degrees in Amer ica and abroad, and is an officer with palms of the French Academy. He eschews the title of "Dr." Black', for modesty an outstanding charac teristic. Black acclaims America as the land of musical promise, the home of composers of extraordinary tal ent. Himself a prolific composer as well as arranger of thousands of musical works, he is a leading mem ber of the American Society of Com posers, Authors and Publishers. Ha has done much to promote the in terests of native music and mu-, slcians. Dairy farming, at Doyles town, Pa., Is one of his hobbies, indicating the grip of-his father’s early training. Black’s other hobby is flying. " -J .Photo Syndicat^) To thse wh must toil on either industry or time supples may ! keep normal, we say: “Be strong and f good courage”, maybe you chance will come.

NEGRO DOLL CO. i (By William Pickens for ANP) Th!s is not a company that makes only Negro dolls, but it is; a company which is owned ami managed by coored people with some white salesmen and which makes dolls representing Amer-1 ican Negroes and American whites.I T ho company runs its factory at 64 Grand street. New York Ci-j ty; it is owned by a partnership of two colored men—Anthony T. Barnes Jr., and Arthur Johnson. They have had experience in making dolls in concerns owned by whitj people and they have star ted this factory in which they make dolls and toys to sell to re tailers. They also sell to chain stort s and large jobbers. One of the great handicaps of such a Ne gro business is the need of suf ficient capital. Tiny could sell $100,000 worth of dolls in any year if they could get the sap- i tal to buy the material and to em- \ ploy the workers. Those who buy or sell dolls ard these who are interested in that sort of business investm- nt should get ;n touch with Mr. Barnes at hir. factory address. There is no-! thing more important for the chil dr-n of a minority race than to have the opportunity to use toys and dolls which represent their own race as well as other races. I would not have the Negro chil dren confined to dolls of their own race, but they should have dolls of their own race along with whatever other dolls they may have. -0 NEWSMAN FINDS AGED MAN OWNER OF OIL LAND Tulsa, Okla., Aug. 12 (ANP)— Last week while interviewing Will I>avir, 72, a native of Benton, La-, Presat r- Mayes jr., a repor ter for the Associated Negro Press, learned that Davis ha the deeds and abstracts to 160 acres of land at Bossier, La., and that the acreage has been oil-pro ducing for a number cf years without Davis’ knowing it. Alert Reporter Mayes, finding the old man seated or a bench, fingering a bundle of legal-look ing papers, engager h;m in con versation, n.ked him what all £he papers meant. Handing him the papers to read, Mayes soon dis covered that Davis had leased the 160 acres to the Muslow Ob' Com pany of Shreveport, La., for two years at a r- ntal of $2.50 per ae ro. He also learned £hat t^le com" pany has paid Davis for only one year's rental, and that subsequent failuro to pay has automatically canceled the lsase and reverted the property to Davis. According to Mayes, one Lou:s Bugler now craims ownership of the land which has been used f v 15 years wiahout Davis' knowledge. But le.v says Mayes, gave the oil com tVfi'TY Tt 7Y /JfY ?

Then they offered $2.50 per acre rental, wh'ch be accepted. die was pad the amount stipulated for one year, but has not heard from tho company since. Mayes said that Davis’ papers showed the land was leased with the priv ilege of drilling for oil. Learning of the company’s ap parent duplicity, Davis left im mediately fler Shreveport to de mand. his rights as owner of the property. Mayes said the Shell Oil company, a $6,000,000 corpo ration, has interested itself in Davis’ behalf and will see that his interests are protected. Aged Owner Davis was profuse in his thanks bo Reporter Mayes for un covering what may be a deep laid plot to defraud him. - Congressman Ludiow Again Asks Cummings To Draft Anti-Lynch ing Legislation Bill Washington D. C. Aug. 12 (A. N. 1'.)—Representative Louis Lud low of Indiana (Dem.- this week renewed efforts to force £he De partment of Justice to undertake a study of anti-lynching legisla tion for the information of the next Congress. [n a letter to Atty. Gen. Homer S. Cummings, Ludlow proposed that the department consider a proposal “fa bring lynching with in the category of Federal crimes ard give the Federal Bureau of investigation authority to investi gate every lynching whereever it may occur.” The Ludlow letter was in reply to a recent communication from tha attorney general is which the latter contended that anti-lynch ing legislation was a subject for Congress alone to deal with.
