for appointment by the President a
Register of the Treasurer.
Mr. Lovett is a well known busines
man and financier of Chicago, with ai
experience of 25 years in school, bank
ing and general business connection, al
of which have stamped him as an er
erotic, able resourceful executive
Mr. Lovett’s earliest banking experlenc
began at Tuskegee in the Savings D«
partment of the Institute, during th
administration of Booker T. Washmg
ton and Warren Logan. This wa
followed by extensive insurance an
banking experiences in Kentucky an
other parts of the country. He is noe
the Treasurer and Vice-President c
the Supreme Liberty Life Insuranc
Company, one of the few institution
of our group which has successful
wea'hered the storm of financial de
pression and which bears the distmc
lion of being the only going compan
of its kind north of the Mason-Dixo
line.
Mr Lovett is no new convert o

support the Democratic party. Sine

actively the principles and lcadershi]
of the Party.
Following political tradition, th
Party which is just coming to powe
is already looking forward and takini
steps for the continuance of admims
tration and Mr. Lovett’s friends believ
that there is every reason to believ
that our racial group will be givei
greater recognition.
