The same rela tion. as th(j fruit has to the flow er and the bud—it is their devel tpment and fulfilment. Bahr.'u'llah teaches that all the great religions are part of one Divine Plan for the education and salvation of mankind. All the great prophets and re ligion founders have taught cne and the same religion, which con sists in worship and service of the One and Only God, but each has preanted the teaching in form best adapted for the age and people tc whom he came. There was never want of harm ony between the prophets. It is | to quarrels and disagreemnts. their follow-ers who have fallen in N.ew through the work of Christ and all the Holy Prophets, man had reached a stage of develop ment at which he is ready for a Universal teaching, which shall consummate all previous Revela tions and reconcile all the differ Robbin’s Pharmacy 2306 No. 24th St. WE 1711 tn'i s< cts and denominatio ns into which humaity has become split up.

Rivers, Assistant to District Attorney Dewey of New York, Addresses Body at Northwestern University ...Col. Theodsre Roose velt Attends Big Garden Party for Delegates at Poro. Chicago, Aug. 12 (ANP)— A feature of last week’s meting here of the Republican Program corn in', it tee was th speech ' Politics and Packets’’ delivered at Thorne hall, Northwstern university, by Fran cis E. Rivers of New York City, assistant to Dist. A tty. Thomas E. L'ewey, ’ whi in prosecuting Man hattan racketeers has obtaired 72 convictions and 73 indictments. Attorney Rivers is also a member of the New York World’s Fair Corporation aid a former member of the New York State Commis sion on Urban Conditions of the Col :ed Population. In his speech th* attorney refrained from dis cussion of the Negro problem as such made n • reference to a prob ablu betterment of economic con dition- among Nc.groes by means of a new Republican party pro gram. This was sa'd t‘ he m keeping with the policy of Dr. Glenn Frank chairman of the Program conimit {32 , of William Hard, executive secretary, Mrs. Chester C. Bolton, vico chairman, and Dr. Harry Reed, director of the program. Atty. River's address was presented as a substitute for the planned appear ance of the late Dr. James Wel don Johnson, killed recently in an auto crash in Maine. G.'nfining himself strictly to a discussion of the inevitable link betwen politics ad rackets, Mr. Rivers detailed the Dewey “putsch" against Manhattan law-breakers, a gainst “poli|tically-pr'otected nac keteerin(g” and the potent Gotham Tammany Hall machine. H0 said, “It would seem that the main essential for breaking the grip of rackets and politics in our large cities is to get in the of fice of prosecutor an unbossed per son who is more thanhonest,cour ageous and able. . .In short, the ability to confront the ruthless and efficient machine that commits crime with a relentless and effi cient machine that detects and pun ishes crime. To elect to office such a person as prosecutor in a city, calls for true high-mir.dedness on the part of political parties; they must support for municipal office only able and lv nest public s entrants r-gardless of party and permi’ them to give a non-politi cal administration of the city gov ern menc. “A high measure of the devotmn and patriotism of a national .p:li ticul party is it willingness to ex-' tend all possible aid to end the alliance of politics and crime. If we are t'> recognize the fact that organizer rackets can exist only through the corruption or incom petence of Leal political machine then w<. must recognize the dear duty of a national political party to crush such local .machmes. Where that process means the des truction of a powerful local and state leaders of the party affected the duty to clean house is even mare urgent. That is not a sacri fice. It is real statesmanship ” Another highlight of last week’s meeting of the GOP Pregram com mittee wa8 a garden party and reception given at Poro Gardens for committee members and spon sored by the Chicago Citizen’s committee, Patrick B. Prescott, chairman. Men and women of both races high in the councils of the party were present. Gslonel Theo dor Roosevelt, son of President I, and the former governor-general of the Philipines, was given an o vation ag he arrived at the Gar den party. A group of 25 young women served as hostesses and a committee of 20 men, including several “veterans cf foreign wars” members headed by Lt. Col. Lewis E Johnson, acted as escorts and ushers.

Urban League this week urged Negroes throughout the country to write to Harry L. Hopkins t\ PA Administrator, and Harold L. Ickes Administrator of the( Pub | lie Works Administration, urging that Negroes be given a fair and adequate proportion of jobs re cently made possible by Congres sional appropriations. WPA has announced that it will soon employ 200,000 workers in rural sections G>f the south in order to equalize their incomes with those of farmers in other sections. Fearing that Negroes may not share equitably in the distribution of this special allot ment for the South, the league urged that a demand be made im mediately f°r a fair deal :n this matter, so that some precautions against discrimination will oe tak en even before the program actu ally goes into effect. The Public Works Administra tion recently was provided with funds making it possible for a pub lic body —a state, a city or a county—to secure funds for the construction of such public build inugs as community^centers, hop pitals and schools. The league ur ged Negr.' Citizens throughout tho country to give thought to im provements necessary in their own communities and to appeal to I their local 'officials such projects | as the Negro ommunity might | l'.eeti.
