"TA—6 « MRS, ROOSEVELT URCES EQUALTY Many Hear Talk in Behalf of Association for Advance- ment of Colored People. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, speak- ing on behalf of the membership cam- paign of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, | faced a capacity audience yesterday in | the auditorium of the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church. | Mrs. Robert G. McGuire, presiding, | tntroduced her. | Equality of opportunity in educa- tion and in the workaday walks of life, with consequent responsibility, formed the theme of Mrs. Rooseevit's address. She expressed approval of | the work done by the National Asso- | ciation throughout the years of its endeavor and said that the problems | of all minority groups must be studied | by all those who hope for the ad- | vancement of the entire Nation. Must Do Better Work. “I am convinced.” Mrs. Roosevelt | gaid, “that for a long time colored | people, and all minority groups of | America, to obtain recognition, must | do as women had to do—a little better | work than the standard performance.” | She said she had tried to understand | the problems of people in different parts of the country and had achieved | a degree of understanding out of which she has developed certain convictions. “What all of us need to do.” the speaker said, “is to work for equality | of recognition for work which is rendered, and equality of opportunity | regardless of race, color, or creed. This | is not to come immediately, but only when the young understand that | standards of life must be raised every- | where at the same time.” Mrs. Roosevelt told her hearers it was “their job to stress the obligation | of doing the best possible work you can, and take advantage of every good opportunity that comes your way * * *" RUTH CHATTERTON. “I love bull fights.” the film star said as she sailed on the Conte Di Savoia for a six-week vacation in Sgain. She will go to Madrid for the fights after Easter.

MORRIS. PRESIDENT Urges Study of Government. “We shall make a beginning when | we give equal educational oppor- | tunities to all. The next step to| follow would be the granting of equal opportunities for employment. There is more hope than ever before of i achievement of these purposes. “It is well that colored people know how to use their franchise to obtain what they wish. I suggest that you make sure of thorough understanding | of problems of government; that you | make sure you know the persons for | whom you vote, and what they stand | for, rather than that you permit yourselves to be swayed by your emo- | tions.” While advising her auditors to think of their own problems first she reminded them that “we are all ad- vancing together.” Walter A. White, secretary of the national association, paid a tribute to Mrs. Roosevelt, praising her activ- ity towards passage of the Wagner- Costigan anti-lynch bill, Other speakers were: G. C.

Saturday a well-dressed young man walked into Goff's office. “You don't remember me, of course.” he said. “I'm the boy you picked up in 1932 while I was hitch-hiking to Minneapolis. You gave me a ride to the next town. You game me a dollar there, told me to eat and then come to your hotel. But I never showed up.” Gofl remembered the incident, long forgotten. “The reason I didn't come to the hotel is I didn't want to im- bose on you any more. I'm work- ing now.

By the Assoclated Press. BOSTON, Mass., April 15.—Griev- ances suffered by the American colo- nists at the hands of the British gov- ernment in 1775 were “as dust com- pared to those of the American people today,” Norman Thomas, Socialist leader, said last night. He gave as illustrations alleged in- justices suffered by residents of the Harlem district of New York at the hands of landlords and the plight of the tenant farmers of Arkansas who, he said, were subjected to maltreat- ment by land owners. He contended that people of the jungle were treated with more consideration than that accorded many American citizens. Thomas said that Communists had attempted to persuade Socialists to join with them in a ‘“united front” for a May-day demonstration, but that he considered this move as a “plot” to damage the Socialist party and that Socialists would have noth- ing to do with it.
