Every once in a while we meet a
fellow who deserves such special
mention that we just have to speak
about it. Such a fellow is Harvey
Wells. Not a man in the County of
Multnomah has been quite as badly
maligned as this servant of the
public. The untruths that have been
told about him gave him no con­
cern mainly because he has not
heard about them. In our policy of
life of the Negro in this area, we
looked up Mr. Wells and after a
nice homey patently Western chat,
we started asking him a few ques­
tions. Never were we more pleas­
antly surprised. Here is a man de­
serving the full support of both the
Negroes and the civic minded
whites of the City of Roses.
