Buying Now
Those of us steadily employed whose incomes have not
been reduced Ly the depression should find these dayvs the
best for buyving in conteinporary history. The necessities
of life have fallen in price to rockbottom prices; cars, ri
dios and other luxuries are being offered at savings never
before dreamed of.
Economists have asscrted that in hard times when
prices are at the lowest is the period to buy, whether it be
a home or a hairpin. Those who have money defeat their
own purpose by holding on. {for if they wait until prosperity
Yeturns they will be forced to pay many extra dollars over
today’s prices. Such buying today would, incidentally, has
ten the departure of the depression since an economic crisis
appears when ccmparatively few purchase.
Meanwhile, the Christmas season is here which means
that temporarily, at least, the business of buyving and sell
ing is stimulated. This part of the vear will find many a
purse string loosened which has been closed all yvear. People
buy at Christmas who have Leen stingy betore.
It weculd be of much more benefit to evervone if the
vendency to buy at Christmas were carried over throughout
the year for when people buy, more money changes hands,
more gcods go to consumers, and more poeple must be em
ployed to grow the raw materials, make them, and finally
sell them to others.
Opinions expressed in this column, which will appear ocea
flonally, are not neceasarily sharved by The World but are purely
those of the writer,
FRANK MARSHALL DAVIS
Monday nigit i read “Slaves Today,” a story of Liberia
written by the prince of Aframerican Bad Boys of Letters,
George Schuyler. Schuyler, you remember, spent three
months in early 1931 in the African republie, and wrote «
series of articles exposing virtual slave conditions ¢ ..
which caused a verbal war.
“Slaves Today” is propagand:
fiction. It pa:nts anauseating and
vivid picture of the slave traffic
which Liberia calls a more cuphe
mist.ec name. 1. iate eliigiy de-

to run the nation and at the same

exports. The way out 1is graft.

Cherchez La Femme
BY WILLIAM PICKENS
(For The Associated Negro Pegess)
Theodore Dreiser, under the aus
pices of a committee for the de
fense of political and labor-case
prisoners, went down into Kentucky
to investigate the awful murder and
denial of legal rights which have
taken place during the miners
strike. As a resuit, Dreiser and a
woman, who was doubtless on the
same mission. have been indicted
by a Kentucky “grand jury’ on the
charge of associating together in a
Kentucky hotel. Just whit Dreise:
and the woman did, or just how this
“jury” found out what was done,
has not been explained to us. s
far.
But what interests us. is that
Dreiser is finding out what e¢very

civil rights, they are met by: "We¢
propose to dafend white woman
