A. L.—There is a man out of
town who said ho loves me and
wants me to marry him and now
I want to know if he will keep
hia promise or not
Ans: Well, how can he?
You are already associated
with anoffer man and you
can't very well have them
both. You ■ are going to get
your wires crossed if you
don’t watch out. Choose one
of the other and make up
your mind to stick by only
ont. He would marry you if
you really desired him to do
so.
R. E. M.—Please tell me where
is J. P. that used to come to my
mother’s house when he would
come to down town?
Ans: He is located in one
of the northeastern cities at
this time, also wrapped up in
another girl. Forget your old
beaus for they won’t e'er
mean anything to our future
life. .
P. W. C.—I lost out this year
getting a place to teach and I am
terribly disappointed. What would
bo your suggestion for me to do?
Ans: The logical thing to
do would bo to return to
school yourself and get your
degree. You aren’t pushed for

interest-.d in the profession of
teaching, it is highly neces
sary that you get as much ed

make the progress that you
wish for.
B. H.—I wish to know if my
daughter's husband is going to re
turn to her or send for her or will
I have to continue to support her
and bo worried with her like I
am now?
Ans: Your daughter’s hus
bard is not planning to return
or send for her anytime soon.
She will continue to be your
responsibility until he changes
his mind about her. Just as
soor as she is able, you should
seo that she gets some kind
of light work to help out some.
H. V.—Would it be safe to go
with the widower?
Sate allright. But I don’t
feel that you are as interested
as you believe yourself to be.
A compUte change is in store
for your that will enable you

M. C. L.—Will my boy friend
clear himself of the mess that h«
is in and marry me?

advantage to make some other
nico desirable friends for I
feel thaf someone else is go
ing to enter your life who
will mean more to you.
C. R_Should I keep going with
this boy some distance from me
or would 1 make better time with
someone else?
Ans: A girl your age should
not devote her entire time to
any one man. Go with the
young men in your city who

men and do not concentrate on
any ore friend until you are
older or have met the one of
your choice.
P. R. C.—I sold the house I
built last year and and built again
this year. I can sell the one I am
in now, but I wonder if it would
be worth the trouble?

STATE DEPARTMENT DENIES
HAMPERING NEGRO TOURIST
— I
New York, Sept. ! The United
States Department denied this
week that the Government us s
its passport agency as a lever to
discourage American Negroes from
traveling abroad.
The denial was contained in a
letter sent to tho National Assoc
iation for the Advancement of'
Colored People by John Scanlan,
acting chief of the State Depart
ment’s passport division, and made
public by tho Association today.
The NAACP. had complained
that colored travelers on ships out
of New York were subjected to
much detailed questioning a* t*
their financial ability, their em
ployment, bank accounts, cash,
on hand, etc. before U. S. offic.
ials would issue passports tc
them.
Because American liepresenta
tives of the United States in for
eign countries have reported
“tho cases of a lagre number of
American citizens abroad who
have become stranded abroad
without funds,” the State depart
ment wrote the NAACP., the Uni
ted States has adopted the policy
of giving enreful scrutiny to the
financial condition of passport ap
plicants who the examint rs “sus
pect—may not have sufficient
funds for—maintenance while a
bread."
inis ruiin'i, wie ivticr
in no wise intended to discrimin
ate against any American citizen,
irrespective of his race or color.’
Not content with this reply, the
NAACP. has written again to the
department citing the fact that
tho Young woman who made the
original complaint hud a certified
round trip ticket and her financial
status had been investigated and
approved by the tourist agency
from whom she bougjit her tick
et. All this information was sent
to the passport bureau before tho
lady applied for her passport—
and still she was questioned at
great length and only received her
passport after a desperate last
minute appeal directly to Secre
tary Hull.

“Satchel Pag® Greatest
Pitcher of All Times”
- Says Dizzy Dean
-- V
CHICAGO, Sept. 22 (ANP) —
Cast another vote for Satchel Page
as the greatest pitcher in organ
ized baseball. This time the bal
lot comes from none other than
the great Dizzy himself, incapac
itated ace of the Chicago Cubs
pitching staff, who writes a daily
column for one of the local after
noon papers. At the same time,
Dizzy lamented the absence of star
colored players from the big
league s.
Said Dean in Thursday's col
umn—■
* A bunch of the fellows get in
a barber session the other day
and they start to argo* abort
whose the best pitcher they ever
see. and some says Kfty Grove
and Lefty Gomez and Walter
Johnson and old Pete Alexander
and Dizzy Vance.
“And they mention Lonnie
Warneke and Van Mungo and
Carl Hubbell, and Johnny Cori
riden tells us about Matty, and
he sure must of been great, and
some of the hoys even say old Diz
is the best they ever see.
‘ But I sc.* all them fellows but
Matty and Johnson, and I know
whose the best pitcher I ever see
and its old Satchel Page, that big
lanky colored boy. Say, old Diz
is pretty fast back i nllw and
1934, ard you know my fast ball
looks like a change of pace along
side that little pistol bullet old
Satchel shoots up to the plate.
And I really knew something a
bout it, because for four, five
y ars, I toured around at the end
of the seaso nwith All Star teams
and I see plenty of old Satch.
“Ho sure is a pistol. Its too
bad those colored boys don’t play
in tho big leagues, because they
sure got some great players. That
fellow Duncan which catches for
Kansas City is most as good r
catcher as Gabby Hartnett and I
can't say no more than that a
catcher.
“I sure get a kick out of him.
One time when I pitch against a
Southern all.star colored team for
a Northern all-star team, and
Duncan catches me, and he has
a glove that makes that old ball
pop, and he makes my pitch sound
like a rifle shot, and he tells them
hitters, ‘boy, don’t get near that
plate. Don’t let that ball hit you,
or it kills you.
“And can they play around that
infield. Say, the way they flip
that ball around, you don’t knew
where it is half the time.
“Anyways, that skinny old Sat
chel Page with those long arms
is my idea of the pitcher with the
greatest stuff ever I see.”

Chicago’s All Negro Town
Robbin, III., A Rising
Community
CHICAGO, Sept. 22 (ANP) —
Consideration of the general prob
lem of Negro housing and efforts
of the National Technical Assoc
iation to have Negro engineers
and architects employed on the
proposed PWA South Park Gar
dens for Negroes here, turned pub.
lie attention this week to the all- j
Negro town of Robbins, 111., to
see what success residents there
have had fa solving their housing
and other civic problems.
Located on the far Southwest
side of the city, Robbins has an
era of about two square miles. It
runs North and South, from 135th
Sc. to 143rd, and East and West
from Sacremerto ave., to Central
Park ave. The nearby village of
Posen has 95 percent Polish resi
dents.
There an* 11 churches, with the
12th now under construction. Most
picturesque Robbins resident is
100 year old Thomas Harton, the
oldest citizen who lives in a little
house constructed by himself.
Most all of the homes in the vil
lage l.a'e small, well kept gar
dens and the citizens have great
civic pride. For the past 15 years
Leroy P. Thomas has been the
postmaster and he fills his office
with credit.
Aside from Mayor Richardson,1
whoso daytime job is deputy sher-\
iff in the office of John Toman,
other Robbins officials are: O. W.
Moore, village clerk; Frank Ed
ward Brown, R. L. Allen, David
Fox and Frank Beard.
LOUIS, MANAGERS DENY
BRADDOCK HAS PART OF
CHAMPION CONTRACT j
Chicago, Sept. 22 (ANP—De
spite statements by Columnist Joe
Williams tnf o-uei white sports
writers who have said in print
that James J. Braddoek “positi
vely” has part of Champion Joe
Louis’ contract, the fighter and
his two managers, Julian Black
and John Roxborough,just as “po
sitively” denied such Monday.
According to Williams and oth
ers whenever Louis collects, so
does the man from whom he won
the title. Braddoek is supposed to
draw 10 per cent of every purse
Joe gets as long as he holds the
crown.
But the champion and his mana
gers stated that no such contract
or arrangement exists. They said
that the same arrangement holds
good r.ow that he has held good
in the past: that is, Joe himself
gets 50 per cent, the managers 20
per cent each and Jack Blackburn,
trainer the remaining 10 per cent.
They said also Mike Jacobs does
r.ot “control” Louis, but merely
has a contract for exclusive pro
motion of all the champion’s
fights.
