BISHOP WALLS SCORES MUSSOLINI AND CHALLENGES BRISBANE IN SERMON By William H. Ferris Jacob Street A. M. E. Zion Tabernacle, Rev. J. A. S. Cole, pastor, held a capacity congregation Sunday morning. People came from every section of the city to hear Bishop W. J. Walls, the new bishop of the diocese. He scored Mussolini, challenged Brisbane and showed that Jesus had a message for the war clouds and the depression. When he concluded his sermon people were crying, "Glory, glory, glory." Dr. H. C. Weeden, the general secretary and editor, introducing the guest speaker said, "After the death of Bishop E. D. W. Jones we needed a presiding bishop in Kentucky who would reconstruct the work which was breaking down and falling to pieces. We found such a man in Bishop W. J. Walls. He stands preeminently high as a pulpiteer. He is a spiritual preacher." In his introductory remarks, which ably and eloquently depicted the crisis in modern civilization, Bishop Walls said, "My theme will be 'W  hat Jesus Has to Say.' There is not much to words without the experience of life. Flippancy of speech is no measure of depth of thoughts. The greatest talker in the world is Mussolini. He is both flippant and defiant. This is not the first time that a flippant and defiant talker has gotten loose in the world and gotten hold of the reins of power. Aristotle was looking for men who could think, for words which had behind them thought experience. The greatest danger in a democracy is too much talk. We call it 'Freedom of speech.' We need words that weigh, words that have behind them life and (Continued on page 2)

SCHOOLS TO OPEN MONDAY; SEVERAL TEACHERS TRANSFERRED By Penelope Perdue Adams Twelve grade teachers transferred; five are new. Many teachers study during the summer. After a forced prolonged vacation period because of the infantile paralysis epidemic, the city schools will open Monday morning at the regular hour. There being no new cases reported within the last few days, the superintendent and the principals hope that parents will unhesitatingly send their children to school to enter a full program of study as no plan for making up the time loss, by an extended school session or otherwise, has been contemplated. Several Transfers Several of the grade  schools will experience a shake-up due to a number of transfers of teachers from their former posts of duty. The changes are: Misses Thelma Lewis from S. C. Taylor to Fred Douglas; Lillian Carroll from S. C. Taylor to G. G. Moore; Alfreda Payne from S. C. Taylor to Mary B. Talbert; Nancy Gibson from Phyllis Wheatley to S. C.

JEW IN GERMANY LIKE NEGRO SOUTH

MISS MATTHEWS, ALLEN MARRIED News comes of the marriage of Miss Susie Matthews, well known school teacher, to Rev. B. W. P. Allen. The date of the marriage was not given and formal announcement not yet made, but from the source from which the information comes, there is no doubt about the fact that Miss Matthews and Rev. Allen are married. Rev. Allen, who is said to be pastoring in New Jersey, was formerly a Louisville business man, owner of the Allen Hotel. Miss Matthews, who was promoted to visiting teacher about two years ago, was one of Louisville's most capable teachers. The marriage is said to have taken place in New York.

SCHEMES OF "TWO" WOULD BE LEADERS CONDEMNED - Make "Farce" Out Of Get Together State Campaign Meeting - When the Leader carried its article about the meeting of the colored Republicans of Kentucky last week, for the purposes of getting together for the state campaign, we did not know that things were being resorted to by a set of unscrupulous individuals which would force us to take the course we are pursuing this week or else subscribe to a selfishness and trickery which should be resented by any self respecting person interested in political affairs and which should not meet the approval of leaders who believe in fair play and who are really concerned about the success of their party organization and its candidates. Neither did this writer think that such things were going on or would go on following that meeting at the Pythian Tuesday September 10, and would bring about so much dissatisfaction and cause condemnation from Republicans representing all elements, progressive,  liberal and conservative. And summing up the work of the meeting, which brought to the city several leaders of the state who were in good faith, but who may not yet know what it is all about, and a large number of local persons, some of whom were imported to be used if the cut and dried tricks of the gang leaders should have any trouble in getting over, the meeting, with the exception of the fine speeches made by Dr. L. C. Ridley of Wilberforce, Judge King Swope, Congressman John M Robsion and others, was nothing more than a "farce." In most every show, act or farce, there are those who do the comedy stuff, usually two of them. And in this "farce" there were two who pulled the tricks and they are still leading the show. Since we are making the "farce" the subject of this article, we are withholding the names of the two star actors for the time being. They could easily be referred to as Murray and Mack, Alphonso and Gaston, Mutt and Jeff, or better, Amos and Andy or "Flunkey" and "Friday." Robsion Asked For Harmony Congressman John M. Robsion, of Barbourville, Ky., and the only Republican member of the House of Representatives from Kentucky, who always puts the success of his party first, had made known to his colored friends that he would like to see fair play exhibited and harmony prevail at the meeting. Mr. Robsion is one of the few of the Lincoln type of Republicans left. No man in Kentucky has a better record as a true and tried friend of the Negro at home (Continued on page 8)
