Person, ally speaking, I don’t believe an addition to Attucks will eliminate the congested condition adequately.

MAN, CHASING GIRL, KILLED AS CAR HITS RAIL (Continued from Page I)
To the Editor: I heartily agree that we need a high school on the east side which would eliminate overcrowded conditions. And instead of an addition to Attucks, I would suggest a high school for the East side. I am willing to put forth any effort to help sponsor the cause. Thanking you and your paper for your invaluable support. Mrs. Mary Whitesides.
To the Editor, Indianapolis Recorder: All of the colored citizens on this side of the city are taxpayers as well as others, so why not give the colored child an opportunity to attend and further his or her education. There are so many children whose parents cannot afford carfare. Even though the school board furnishes transportation now, that could be turned in to cash toward our colored high school. The next important reason for another school means more teachers can be employed and each pupil will get the proper training and attention that he needs where in a crowded school like Attucks some child’s parents will probably think* his or her son is getting what he should. With so many children to teach, it is hard on the teachers at Attucks, so why not give the teachers that need positions a chance and our children an opportunity. I hone we will be successful in getting another colored high school and erect it on the East side. It will be an upliftment to our community. Mrs. Fern E. Howard, 2409 Columbia Ave.
Gowhenl was told by a pal, James Price, 44, 1332 1-2 North Senate avenue, that his sweetheart. Miss Nelson, and Price’s girl. Miss Blackwell were enjoying a pleasure drive with seveeral other men. Hailing a taxi, the men were driven to a secluded' spot, on a park drive, where the car containing their girls was parked. Upon discovering the identity of the men alighting from the taxi. whose threats Indicated an angry mood, Miss Blackwell, it was reported urged Davis to attempt a get-away. Continues Chase Both Price and Cowherd jumped me rum,ing hoards us Davis sent the tar forward at a rapidly accelerating speed. Price sson alight, however, leaving Cowherd vainly attempting to bring the machine to a stop. For more than six miles the irate lover hung on at wind-splitting speeds varying from sixty to seventy-five miles an hour. Davis, obviously excited by the turn of events, failed to check his speed in time to make a sharp turn on Sixteenth street between Harding and Sugar-Grove avenue. With Cowherd still clutching desperately, the auto tore down 120 feet of the guard rail, overturned several times and came to a stop in a field. Cowherd’s body was almost cut in half. Five stitches were required to close a laceration in Miss Nelson’s face. Davis escaped with only minor cuts and bruises. Tlie car was completely wrecked. The fourth member of the party, an unnamed man. suffered a broken arm. Trial of Davis on the manslaughter charge was set for April 3. The body of Cowherd was shipped to Danville, Ky.. Friday for burial.

need a reality.' A group of our citizens, as you know met with the School Board, but the results were not very gratifying to us. We need the whole-hearted cooperation from just such wide-awake men as you, and the wonderful paper you represent. I am in accord with you and your paper in anything you see fit to do about this proposition. I am a member of the East End Civic League. Mr. Wm. Haddox, 1529 Hamilton avenue, is president of the organization, and the meetings are held at the Hill Community cenier. The East side needs your help and if we can get that high school, it will improve our part of the city, make better, citizens of our youth, and in general improve the conditions of our group as a whole. If the white group needs five high schools, namely: Manual Training, Arsenal Technical, Washington, Shortridge, and Broad Ripple schools, to maintain the highest cultural and educational advantages for their young people, surely, the Negro group, needs two high schools to bring out those same attainments in our youth. Since the East side contributes such a large quota of the present student body at Attucks that second high school should be situated on the East Side. You may count upon me 100 per cent in anything you see fit to do. Sadie E. Starks, 2220 Martindale Ave.
is a South Carolinian or upon instructions is not known. Senator Frederick Van Nuys, of Indiana, author of the resolution tor a Senate investigation, plans next week to bring additional pressure on the audit committee for action on the appropriation. The appropriation is regarded by all informed persons as being far too small for an adequate investigation of lynchings, but apparently Chairman Byrnes does not want even the small amount of $7500 appropriated. Demand Clear Stand The lynching issue has assumed growing importance as both parties prepare for their national conventions and the campaign to follow. Brought out in front by the declaration of Senator William E. Borah that he would veto any an-ti-lynching law if he were President, the lynching issue is §aid to be causing Democrats some secret headaches. Democratic observers here are watching closely the strong fight which is being made by colored people against Senator Borah. They knew colored people were interested in lynching, but they have been amazed at the intensity of their resentment against candidates who do not take a clear stand. The Democrats fear that if colored people arise in organized resentment aginst enemies or pussyfooters on lynching, that their party’s chances may suffer consid. erably unless a decisive step is taken by the Administration before the adjournment of engross.

NF;W YORK CITY. March 20.— (ANP)—How the Negro is discrim inated against and humiliated and his reaction to such treatment were disclosed in a survey made by the Methodist Federation for Social Service, the findings of which were made public here Monday. The survey was carried on under the direction of Dr. Harry F. •Yard, of Union Theological Sem'nary. and Miss Winifred L. Chappell. secretary of the Methodist ’e derat ion and the purpose of it vas to discover, if possible, the 'legro’s attitude toward the Unification Plan, being considered by the Methodist church which carries with a segregated Negro conference. According to this survey the Negro is discriminated against within and without the church and the communicants will resent any attempt to establish a segregated conference. It further declared that “while the Negroes are proverbial docile, now there is a great for-
ment going on in the Negro population both North and South.” To substantiate this claim, the survey points out the efforts on the part of the racial group to secure the passage of the Costigan* Wagner anti-lynching bill now before congress; the active participation of Negroes in the ShareCroppers and Tenant Farmers’ unions in the South, the establishment of an “interracial restaurant” at the University of Illinois in order to afford Negro students eating facilities near the campus and the wide-spread interest manifested by the group in the Italo-Ethio-plan conflict. Concluding, the survey states* “There is much opposition to thtf proposed Unification Plan on the part of Negro youth leaders of the country and the rank and file Negro preachers. They deplore segregation within the gates of Methodism. Outstanding Negro officials on the other hand endorse the Unification Plan.”
