"I assigned Detective Holt to this-matter because he is capable and efficient. I have the highest regard for him as a policeman and investigator. We are making a «low and active investigation and time will show the work that we arte doing, Chief Morrissey said. "We have in previous times cleaned up several that started and we mean to devote the needed effort to this matter.” Policy operators, the chief said, could not flaunt the law anymore than anyone else. The complaint, Which turned the department’s attention to the policy crowd, chargged that agents were writing promiscuously in the streets, many of the business places, shine stands, groceries; that the men walked the streets with slips in their hands or in plain view, with no apparent regard for law. Informed sources and news writers have watched the mush-room-like growth of policy here and feared the bleeding toll It and other forms of rackets and gambling have exacted in this city. Workers in the policy racket number hundreds and they leave hardly a section of the city’s populace untouched in their selling. Returns are tremendous compared with the original sum invested—in case the player wins. The odds against his winning are said by. Informed sources as to be so high that very very very few win in comparison with the number of persons playing. Other informed sources have declared that 'The drawings” are carefully supervised, so closely and carefully supervised are the drawings that the number of persons winning is said to somewhat influenced by sUCh hawk-llke interest. The number of "the chosen” is as a rule

In leaping to its wild-fire growth in this city, policy and other rackets have absorbed persons previously employed in legitimate jobs, Invaded homes which are used as stations, swept through church members like the old nick himself and offered young persons a new and hopeless avenue for their hard earned nickels and dimes. Business people, professional groups and others have variously complained that policy and rackets have stood between the people and their house rent, food and other bills. Civic groups have long condemned the evil but apparently have been slow in attacking the problem. However, from all re-

Many of -these are to be merged at the Colored Orphans Home, and other activities for the training of these young people are to be developed. William Vernon Shields, State Director of Negro Activities, N. Y. A., says “that this is a wonderful opportunity to give girls and boys vocational training, as well as other educational training to the youth in Marion county. Training will be given in printing, boiler and steam-fitting, land-scaping, and metal and woodwork training for boys. “The girls will receive training in sewing, cooking, laundry, and home-making. By the landscape development that will be brought about by this activity, it is hoped not only to develop a beauty spot but to afford useful training in gardening and landscaping for the youth.” Mr. Shields says that all taining is given with the idea of preparing youth for future employment and better citizenship, and that they may be self-supporting.” An advisory committee hag been formed to guide the program. This committee is composed of Cleo ttttackburn, F. E. DeFrantz, F. B. Ransom, Miss Mae Belcher, and Miss Irene Harris. John Newhouse and Will Brown. County Commissioners, stated that they were more than pleased to see that this property was to be put to such good use and $?rvice for the colored youth of thfi^ county. They heartily joined with the Marion County Department of Public Welfare _ and the National .Youth Administration in encouraging this splendid movement for bettering the colored yoqth of the community, officials said.

At the conclusion of the expert meats, ’’Skinny and Husky,” "Wimpy and Popeye,” and "Mickey and Minnie” had more places to go to spend the rest of their rat livi's than they knew what to do with. The lucky boys and girls who became their owners promised to fe&d and care for them and to give them all the milk they could possibly

dress by F. B. RANSOM, manager of The Mme. C. J. Walker Mfg. Company, address has been characterized by newspapermen and others who heard it, as the second Gettysburg Address. Mr. Ransom spoke in part as follows: “Lafayette, We have come," were the words of General Pershing on his visit to France on the eve of America’s entrance into the World’s War. His was to pay a debt of gratitude from America to France, for the blood of French soldiers was mingled with that of the ragged continentals at Valley Forge and at York Town. So here today, we say, “Madam C. J. Walker, we have come.” True there is no war of shot and shell. Yet there is a grim economic war now being fought; a clash of political philosophy, and ideals; a social revolution, and it does not yet appear what the end will be. We have come from nearly every state in the union, to report that in spite of this war, in spite of the depression, our flag, has never touched the ground. We have come to honor thee and to pledge anew our love and loyalty to your name and the things for which you stood. We have come to re-assert our faith in the great institution you established and to make brighter and more enduring your memory in the heart and mind of mankind. At the close of Mr. Ransom’s address, MRS. MAE WALKER PERRY, President of The Mme. C. J. Walker Mfg. Company, stepped forward and took charge of the unveiling ceremony as the click of the motion picture machine and
flash of many cameras.

Homer Hunter, as acting commissioner of the W. I*. A. ordered the survey to determine how many of the dismissed employes find work and what becomes of those who do not.

Doxey A. Wilkerson, professor at Howard university, was reelected national vice president-at-large by an overwhelming majority over Miss Layle Lane of New York. The convention greatly applauded Professor Wilkerson’s plea for federal aid, especially for Negroes. Following its slogan, ‘Education for Democracy — Democracy in Education,’ it agreed with him that a breakdown in opportunities for Negro education meant a complete breakdown In American democracy. It also endorsed the plan submitted by Miss Goldie Ervin of Philadelphia for more intensive work among administrators, parents and children to the end of cooperative thinking and cooperative living.
