Politicians cater . to adults who are capable of voting while the work of eradicating most OF DISCUSSION of the present day economic evils must be centered wholly on the young and newy borns. If half of the money that crime and waste costs us yearly could be salvaged we would at once eliminate half of our economic !lls but to do this we must start with the young. In the place of greed, avarice and lust we must substitute the desire for service, loyalty and love. To do this, however, our capitalistic system must be slightly changed, so that a premium and perpetual dividends will be paid on the investment of merit, faithfulness and reliability. When these essentials are rewarded, instead of merely the possession of dollars, the race and the nation will have, in one stroke, solved all our crime, racial and class poverty conditions. Am I right? WHEATON ADMIRES IHIGH STANDARDS OF ADVOCATE San Francisco, Calif., Nov. 3, 1931 To the editor: Congratulations on tile improvement, in the mechanical appearance, of The Advocate. Glad to see that it is keeping up the literary standard and the NEWS of racial interest. Note with regret that the column furnished by "Kits Ried" has been missing for some issues. Received a very interesting letter from Clifford C. Mitchell, in which he stated high appreciation for you and the hope for your continued journalistic success. I class the Portland Advocate among the papers with a worthwhile mission. PROMINENT SPEAKERS LISTED Prohibition will be "put 011 the spot" at a mass meeting in Portland on Saturday, November 7. The meeting will be held in the city auditorium, Third and Clay streets, under the auspices of the Women's Organization for National Prohibition Reform. An eminent physician, a prominent attorney and Legionaire, a member of the clergy, and a labor leader are among those who will attack 'Prohibition from the speaker's platform. The speakers are: Dr. William S. Knox, physician. Ben T. Osborne, executive secretary of the Oregon state Federation or Labor. Joseph Carson, Portland attorney and a member of the American Legion. Rabbi Henry J. Berkowitz, of the Temple Beth Isreal, Portland. Mrs. Louise Palmer Weber, a member of the Oregon state advisory board of the Women's Organization for National Prohibition Reform. The Women's Organization for reform which is sponsoring the mass meeting has a national enrollment of 355,000, and an Oregon State membership of 2,365 women who have pledged themselves to work and vote for repeal of National liquor laws. "Prohibition has failed dismally, "Mrs. David T. Honeyman, Oregon state chairman, declared when announcing the mass meeting. "Not only is prohibition impossible of enforcement, and a demoralizing force in our national life, but also it is costing the United States above $50,000,000 a year.

An effort Is being made to discover whether Washington himself a surveyor, was in any way resJ)onsible for the employment of Benjamin Banneker, the famous Negro who served as a surveyor during the laying out of the city of Washington. It is known that Banneker worked under the direction of the French Engineer who had charge of the work and there are many who say that Banneker drew the plans for an entire section of the city. The Bicentennial • is expected to bring hundreds of thousands of visitors to Washington in 1932. Preparations are being made for an influx of colored visitors and while no specific plans are available yet looking toward the presentation of a colored exhibit since most of the Negroes of the time were still In slavery. Banneker and many other Negroes, however, were free during Washington's time and some of them had made remarkable progress. -0--- POLICE KILL NEGRO BOY The fol!owlng statement was issu-1 ed to the press at the close of the trusee meeting on Tuesday night: "The board of trustees of Howard university, in their semi-annual meeting, held today in the board of trustees room, Carnegie Library, voted to adopt the recommendation of the Committee on the School of Medicine to dismiss Dr. Arnold Donawa from the service of the university, effectIve October 27, 1931.

VICTIN OF QUIZ Snow Hill, Md., Nov. 4-(CNA)-That Orphan Jones, aged Negro farm laborer, is Innocent of the murder of a rich planter and his family, and is a victim of a vicious frame-up, Is shown by facts uncovered by the ILD. Orphan Jones who was made to sign a "confession" after 16 hours of • severe torture, told ILD representatives that the belonging of the Davis family found in his possession had been planted by the police when they saw that they would have a hard job proving their case against him. Furtner investigation has revealed the fact that last year Davis, the murdered farmer, had shot the son of Clark, a neighbor,· when he caught him in the watermelon patch and that Davis had informed on Clark to another landlord in a dispute over a boundary line. These facts are simply ignored by the authorities. In addition, Jones was not even physically able to read the "confession" he signed after 16 hours of beat. Ing, because his glasses had been taken away from him. If the police are so sure that he Is guilty, it is asked, why were they so careful not to permit a lawyer for Jones until after he had been indicted? Last week lynch fury broke out again, when a mob of 300 farmers in automobiles stormed the jail at Snow Hill in an effort to lynch Jones. Luck ily, Jones was at the Baltimore jail at that time, for the warden would have offered no reslstnce to the mob as Is proven by the fact that he permitted them to enter the jail and then refused to reveal the identity of any of the members of the mob. Bernard Ades, ILD attorney who ls defending Jones, Is preparing a petition for a change of venue, citing the several attempts of Worcester County farmers and merchants to lynch the man as a means of terrorizing the thousands of farm workers in this area.

And here's a model that combines all three without sacrificing a bit of its youthful simplicity. As you see, it's the unusual collar that gives the effect of width which makes the slightly fitted waist; line seem twice as slim by comparison, As for the sleeves, have you ever seen anything smarter or more easy to h~ndle tha!I the pointed trim111mc pieces?
