V i a as possible a "Double-Duty" Dollars ( is inferior! Inferiority is not so! much a matter of argument as of be--1 havor. When we speak of handling 1 the "Double-Duty" Dollar our mind * lingers on President Emmett Burke r Company of Richmond, Virginia. Em-j t met Burke is a gentleman. Emmett a Burke is - no sport! Nbbody can i v ' watch the bearing of Emmett Eurke .f and doubt his integrity; nobody can v | follow Emmett Burke's career as a! banker and**doubt his honesty and! ability. He is modest in?his bearing j - tcmperatg"fn his habits, social in his * ; manners and serves Richmond and j * tn0 iNegro race with a fe_rvor and | i devotion that gratitude alone cannot J repay. (Mr. Burke does notary to j " cause he is president of -the largest Negro bank in the South; he does a npt strive to outdo the city in out- i: lays for social occasions; he does not e go off on "sprees" or "for a little d fun" over the week-end. Emmettln r Burke is custodian of the people's "T . 'money and hP attends to his business! t r Tf this; wiitci liad-a cool million there1 n : is no man livingrwith whom he would T , rather trust it for safety than with " i the same Emmett Burke of he Con- < solidated Bank and Trust Company. e In thP past Negroes who handled jj rther Negroes' money have been too t prone to "spread", and to "spread" ^ too quickly. It is hard to inspire con ^ , fidenee in a man who drives a Pack- * ard on Ford salary. People are or- j , dinarily afraid of such men and^ well p nVay they~~b~e! IriJ The" past" Negroes! , have moved out in to the "fashiona- r , ble section" and built "little man- j sions" rather too - early. - It- is known fact that the "spread" stage ? . comes to the Negro relatively early -ps c ompared with a whito man in " , similar circumstances, although the i v . reverse would be expected. It is not J . enough to inspire Negroes to dedicate "Double-Duty" Dollars; but these t, dollars mu.sjt be handled by men and v , women who are conscious of a sac- ^ red obligation! Sports and "sttrd- ^ vers" are, not fit subjects to handle (| "Double-Duty" Dollars. Iv , " POINTED ] y fv0 1N T S ? George A.
