thanks to the cooperation of
our friends and patrons.
The purpose of the contest was
to raise funds necessary for the
buying of milk and other food to
give to the school's undernourished
children. This is in keeping
with the spirit of the times; the
realization by society that the
strong must help the weak, if Ave'
are ever to approximate the ideal
society _
The total amount raised was
$278.47. The highest amount was
reported by the sixth grade pu

the pre-election survey made b;
the National Colored Democrati
Association, headed by Dr. Wil
liam J. Thompkins, Recorder o
Deeds for the District of Coluiflbii
was demonstrated in the electloj
results^
The survey, revealed in the Oct
ober 11 issue of the New Yor!
Times, caused a prediction by Di
Thompkins that eighty-five percen
of the 6,100,000 Noferoes Nortl

Dr. Thompkins' survey, as re
vealed' in the New York Times
asserted that Neigroes held th<
balance of power in New Jersey
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, Kei
'tucky, Missoiwi, West Virginia
Michigan, Oklahoma and Californ
ia, and predicted thtt Roosevel
vould carry all these states. Hi'
prediction proved t0 be accurate
Exhibiting a radiant ' smile an<
displaying complete satisfactioi
wer+tho election results and thi
accuracy of hs predictions, Dr
Thompkins, when interviewed ii
Kansas City, Mo., where he ende<
his strenuous campaign among Ne
.?ro voters, issued the followin;
"tatomen;:
"President Roosevelt's re-elec
ion to a third term demonstrate
unquestionably the desire of th
American people to have perpetua
ed his great humanitarian and so
cial justice program which charac
terized his first two terms. It dem
onstrates the people's faith in th
President's efforts to discourage
var abroad and in working foi
peace and tranquility at home.
' "I predicted a month ago. Lha:
the President would get som<
5,000,000 Negro votes covering ar
ate* uuv iiiucn nut ui uxiu ouuvi
of the Mason and Dixon Line,
pledged him ' the 2,000,000 vote!
of the members of the Nationa
Colored Democratic Association.
The results in the wards and .dis'
tricts where our membership i.
strongest illustrates coliclusivelj
that my pledge was fulfilled, ant
that the Negro voters cast fcheii
ballots for the President, like
wise as 1 predicted.
"Now that the electio^i is over
it is my hope that the few NefTro
es who followed blind traditior
in voting the Rqpublican ticket
will discard political differences
during the existing emergency an<
work to bring about complete har
tatony among the Negro population
The majofity of the people hav<
indicated their choice and I hop<
that every Negro wlill bury po
litioal hatchets in an effort tt
bring i bout 100 percent unity."
