Double Day and Doran Announces The George Washington Carver Memorial Award This award is offered by Doubleday, Doran and Company and is open to any book that deals with American Negroes. It is an award of $2,500 ($1,500 ouiright, $1,000 as an advance against ( royalties). The offer will remain open indefinitely in our discretion. It will not be based on manuscripts received dming a particular period but the award will be given whenever a full-length manuscript seems in the estimation of the judges to be worthy of this special recognition. The judges will be the editors of DouLleduy, Doran and Company. It is the hope of Doubleday, Doran that this award will serve as one moans of keeping alive the memory of a great American, and that it will also help to give wide distribution to books about the American Negro. It is certainly an exaggeration to say that Unde Tom’s Cabin brought on the Civil War, but it is certainly no exaggera tion to say that the moral indignation it aroused in the North had a great deal to do with ending the inhuman institution of slavery. Books are weapons. A book entered for the George Washington Carver Memorial Award may take any foim as long as it is an effective book and has something to say. It may be fiction, non-fiction or poetry. It may be written by anyone who illuminates the Negro’s place in American life. Doubleday, Doran reserves the right to publish any book sub mitted even if it does not win the award, on terms to be arranged. The George Washington Carver Memorial Award winners will be extensively promoted and their authors will receive the fol lowing scale of royalties: 10 per cent on the first 2,500 copies; 12% per cent on the next 2,500 copies; and-15 per cent thereafter. Manuscripts should be addressed to the Editors, George Washington Carver Memorial Award, Doubleday, Doran and Com pany, Inc., 14 West 49th Street, New York 20, N. Y. ENTRY FORM Doubleday, Doran and Company, Inc. 14 West 49th Street New York 20, New York I would like to submit my manuscript for the George Wash ington Carver Memorial Award, at the same time submitting it for regular publication by Doubleday, Doran and Company if it fails to win that award.

M. C. A. School of Commerce, co-op institution sponsored by the Dryados Stroot Y. M. C. A., New Orleans, enrolled a total of 506 stu dents from 10 states for the 1943-, 1944 session, making it by far the' largest Negro business school in the] nation. Its complete business ma chines equipment cost thousands of dollars. The faculty of eight full-time persons is highly train ed. Some two hundred graduates of the school are employed by the government in Washington, and hundreds more in civilian jobs. During the past week more than one hundred alumni of this school who are employed by the govern ment attended a dinner meeting sponsored by the school at the Phyl lis Wheatley YWCA, Washington. Mr. Emmor M. Lancaster, of the U. S. Department of Commerce; Mrs. Irene C. Hypps, supervisor of business education in the Wash ington schools, and Jesse O. Thom as, of the American Red Cross, were speakers. Presiding was W. H. Mitchell, Jr., executive secre tary of the New Orleans YMCA, and director of the school. NEGROES “SASSY” SAYS ny. guard Commander New Yrk, NY.—Governor Thom as E. Dewey was asked this week to investigate the reported state ment of Col. George W. Martin of the New York State Guard that Negroes are “getting rich and sas sy.” Col. Martin, in command of tne 4th Regiment of the State Guard, located in Queens, was quoted by a reporter for PM, after his regi ment had put on a demonstration of how to deal with “agitators.” Martin also included labor in his remarks. There have been several indications that many of the State Guards over the country, organized to replace the National Guard units now in regular Army service, are being drilled to quell "agitation.” The NAACP, in its wire to Gov ernor Dewey, pointed out that State Guards should not be trained “in methods suppressing legitimate democratic processes employed by citizens in pursuit of their rights as Americans.” It demanded the removal of Col. Martin if he was quoted correctly. SUBSCRIBE NOW! MWW - - ■* wmMtM_ 5RIDE AT TUSKEGEE First Lt.
