what the President has done and
what he ha» meant to the nation

before we take an iSMie on the

Anc ther question asked of
him was his opinion of M r «.
Franklin D. Roosevelt. And with
deep feeling; in thds voice he m

“Due to the President’s ability
to analyze and understand con
ditions and situatjons, conditions
in «the south today are -beitter
than they have been in many
long years. He seeks to amelior
ate—ti intproye the condition?
and situa^ioins gradually instead
of resorting to drastic measureB.
The result has been a more to
lerant, liberal and friendlier
wbite South towar|d the black
Boulth. Only recently, the Stata
of North Canolina raised the
monthly pay of Negro teachen,
six dollars and that of white
teachers, only two. And this
formula will continue unttil the
N%gro teacheni are on a parity
with the white teachers. And
more money is being spent on
Negro educl^ion and poor men
and wy>men are being appointed
to responsible positions, not only
in Washington, but throughout
the nation more than in any pre
vious administration.
"And we must also realize the
tremendous gcod coming to jus
in the low costing homes beiig
built n'i^ll throug^j the slum areas
of the south. That has been of
great help and ail were managed
by Negroes. I consider that this
vast sum money has been an
investment for the salvation of
the American people. We are no’v
enjoying better homes, bettor
schools, better hospitals and
that means better living condi
tions and better life.”
At this point Mr. Sipaulding
left his friends to return to his
hotel, the Theresa at 12t5ith St.
and Seventh Avenue. But yotors
truly had scored a scoop that
scores of newspapermen had
been vainly seeking for many
raonths.
I only trust that Mr. Sipauld-
ing will not be angry, feeling
that I have taken advantage of
him in listening in on his private
conveilsatiion wij^ >his friends.
But after all, I’m a reporter and
paid to get the news ^nd here’.-j
trusting he’ll overlook my ove'.’t
act.

mittee has requested the Section
of Fine Arts to sponsor « com

the Section of Fine Arts is a
particularly appropriate way of
democratically selecting this com

The mural will depict Mias An
