Strictly an entertainment bill that possesses plenty of sock appeal,

at the box office is the one offered by Gale Agency that headlines blues
_ singer Lil Green, the Decca recording artist. Ably
supported by the famed Deep River Boys, who got
their start s’x years ago when they first sang together
in the Hampton Glee Club at Hampton Institute, Va.,
and Luis Russell’s augmented orchestra, this revue

and harmony. Billed as the "3-Star Unit,” it will

Recently Assemblyman William T. Andrews, 21st A.D., let it be
known that he was a candidate for Congress; moreover, that he is
going to run AGAINST Rev. Adam C. Powell, Jr. And, as the saying
goes, that’s where we come in.
While the very definition of the word politic means artful, crafty,
cunning, prudent, sagacious, wary, wily wise and so on—the term poli.
tic also stands for: diplomatic, discreet and judicious (among other
things).
In dealing with politic(s), as a group let us stress unity.

There’s no need for mud-slinging at a time like this, when most
of all what we really need is GOOD REPRESENTATION IN WASH

Ihal Andrews is possessive of superior legislative
experience cannot be denied. But no one will go on
record as having said that Powell is not worthy of the
people’s vote of confidence.
YV ere both Powell and Andrews to oppose each
other for a seat in the House of Representatives, I
am of the opinion that neither would win out. Any
white candidate would easily be elected since the
Negro vote in that case will find itself split wide open.
As for the honor of being the first Negro Congress
man elected from New York, that matters not a damn.
We want a Negro Congressman from N. Y'., and a
good Congressman. What’s more, it’s OUR DUTY’
to elect one.

An affair that should well get public support is the "Victory Ball

fixed star in Cafe Society—is forever making con
tributions to churches and worthy charities. Little
. uoes me public know ot this grand trait of Miss
llazcl Scott Scott's simply because she has not done this sort of
thing in hope that it would gain for her reams of publicity. In her
own words: “Our people have a hard time trying to make it and all
of us who are enjoying a measure of success should pitch in and do
our part.” Indeed a grand attitude for a swell gal to take, I’ll say
Young Pat Flowers, the sepianist, was heard on

Madison, Wisconsin, Citizens
Turn Down Political Control
of Their Electric Service
BY A VOTE OF 2 to 1!
By an overwhelming vote of 2 to 1, the citizens of Madi
son, Wisconsin, rejected municipal ownership of their
electric system. When they voted April 4th, the citizens
of Madison refused to place their electric service under
political control and management. They voted to keep
the experienced business management that has given
Madison low rates and good service for many years.
In summarizing the results of the election, the daily news
paper, the Madison State Journal, said:
"A close vote on the referendum to purchase the Madi
son Gas and Electric Company might have left room for
speculation, if not for argument. Its rejection, two to one,
and by every ward in the city, offers opportunity for
neither. By the largest vote ever cast at a spring election,
the citizens of Madison have said in effect: 'We are well
satisfied with what we have. Our rates are low. Our
service is excellent. The management of the utility is
public-spirited and honest. Why change fox the sake of
the politicians and the fee-seeking promoters?'"
