Those who attended were: Charles S. Gilpin, selected for his work in "The Emperor Jones"; Dudley Digges, for his work in "The Emperor Jones"; Varest, for her work in "Enter Madame"; Lonelie Atwille, for his work in "Deburau"; Lee Simpson, the scenic author for "Deburau"; Margaret Severn, for her use of masks in dancing, and Dellahil. Owing to illness David Belacoe, the director, and Fred Stone, who was voted the greatest humorous actor on the American stage, author for the "Emperor Jones" who also was invited, was out of town. Glipin was at a table near the entrance of his left, and the place on his right was occupied by Mrs. Rollin Kirby, a director of the Drama League.

The cynosure of attraction in the grand ballroom was a small, simply decorated table in the center, at which Martin S. Gilpin was seated. From the interest evinced in this table from the beginning of the dinner until its conclusion and from the applause and attention which Gilpin's address received it was plain that the star of "Emperor Jones" was also the size of the annual banquet of stars. Kenneth McGowan, dramatic critics and a director of the league, acted as masseur. When he rose to introduce Mr. Gilpin a hush fell over the room. After reviewing Gilpin's work SAM HUS THE HOUSTON INFORMER briefly Mr. McGowan turned to Mr. Gilpin and said simply, "I take pleasure in introducing the greatest actor of his race, Mr. Charles S. Gilpin." He thanked of handclapping greeted this minute. The applause lasted three minutes. When it had completely died out Mr. Gilpin rose, a bit nervous. Several times he stood before the camera, feet before he began to speak. A slight nervousness, apparent at first, soon wore away. "At time," he said, "when I am able hardly to go through with a monologue, and they say, 'Dane the Orientals, you know,' the actor bridge of red-hot dead blood, the bridge of red-hot dead blood, and that is the way I feel. In facing an audience of this kind I am as nervous as a girl. Mr Gilpin was profuse in expressing his gratitude to the Drama League and to the public for its recognition of the actor himself, who is an artist. He explained, "was something a long, long way off. I never expected to reach that height, but you have called me to be among you and you have an evening of pleasure and I am happy to be among you and you have Mr Gilpin does not look very inviting." This was followed by a ripple of discrete laughter. "he concluded, 'I shall try to make my stand out as prominently, if that is within my appeal.' The applause at the conclusion of his short speech was even greater than the other actors. The other guests of honor made brief addresses, in which they thanked the Drama League for the honor it deserved." Gilpin Asks Chance For the Colored Actor More than a hundred and fifty persons packed the conference room at the Civic Club, 14 West Twelfth street, to hear Charles Koehler, a prominent African American Stace. "Every inch of standing room was taken, including the aisle space, and a few persons could not gain admittance to the room. But many fine actors will be developed among the Negroes on the stage in genuine opportunity on the stage in genuine opportunity. After speaking of the emotional qualities of the Negro he said: "There is a great need for African Americans but buffoonery," he said.

"Seeing the President" Told By Race Journalist Seeing the president of the United States of America is a privilege, any way you take it. It arouses varied emotions in any red-blooded individual. It stirs up the wells of patriotism, and makes one say with Daniel Webster, "For a long, long time the president has been a man of mystery. Not only was he inaccessible to the leaders of the party that placed him in power, the great gates of the great iron fence that surrounds the White House were kept closed to visitors. To millions the president was a mere creature of the imagination, and that goes, also, for the fact that he was not on the fourth day of March, when the country editor from Ohio, Warren G. Harding, became president, the White House began to function in tangible form. The first "big idea" to be acted upon was to "open wide the gates." That was an executive decree, but it was more, it was American and showed conciliatory and effectively open-mindedness, opening up the flood gates, and it has had an electrical effect on the popu GILPIN TO ACT IN WASHINGTON AT THE BELASCO Special to The Informer Washington, D. C. — The Washington public is being stirred to great enthusiasm over the announcement that Charles Gilpin, whose marvelous acting in Eugene O'Neill's "The Emperor Jones" at the Princess Theatre, New York City, has made him the sensation of the season, will appear in the stellar role that in play in Washington at the Bellesco Theatre, Monday, March 28, supported by the well known Michael Hirsch, who will precede rise in a few weeks to a foremost place on the American stage marks an epoch in the progress of the colored people and be an inspiration to the youth of the race.

White, assistant secretary of Natl Association for Advancement of the Nation. Editor In Chief, the Associated Negro Press lace. The people feel "nearer to the government." When Mr. Wilson and Mr. Harding rode along Pennsylvania avenue, on their way to the capitol, there was afforded an unusual opportunity for study in contrast. As you looked at Wilson, you thought of Harding, you thought of flowers. When, in the midst of 100,000 people, Warren G. Harding took the path that made him the head of the government, and you listened to his economically efficient and patriotically humane inaugural address, there was a sense of pride in President Harding was saying the things as we ourselves would say them, and he was putting his thoughts in everyday language, with a delivery of eloquence and a bearing of becoming dignity.

Gulph digressed from his theme, "The Negro and the Stage," to disco- press頻 afecting his race in general. "The prospect for the Negro in America" can be said.

There are none so high. It underserved, who may escape justice; and there are none so low, if deserving, who will be denied it. You get the game impression on a visit to the White House. It was my privilege to have this experience. In the past, I was a student in the United States, Mr. Harding displays no affectation or haughtiness. I have seen him as editor in his newspaper office in Marion, Ohio; I have seen him as lieutenant governor of Ohio; as United States senator from Ohio, and as president, and from my human experience, he is the spirit of the man. He has grown in intensity of purpose, keeping progress, it seems, with his response bilities; and he has grown becoming in presidential dignity, but he is very human and very American. We are in the future, we real our faith in the future. NEGRO HEALTH WEEK BEGINS SUNDAY, APR. 3 For the third time the Texas Public Health Association is announcing its co-operation with all of the states having a large Negro population, in the National Negro Health Week. This Negro Health Week is held at approximately the same time each year. Last year over 200,000 Negroes of Texas participated in some form or other in the celebration of this week. The purposes of Negro Health Week are to educate the people of the race in the methods of preventing disease and the improving of local sanitary conditions. A special program for each of the days of the week has been prepared. Sunday, April 3, is given over to sermons and lectures, while Tuesday, April 5, is Children's Health Day, and Thursday, April 7, is Tuberculosis Day. Anyone interested in having an active part in Negro Health Week can secure full information by writing Dwight E.

(By the Associated Negro Press.) Washington, D. C.—Things will begin to hum in Washington in a short while. Something is going to happen. Just what is enveloped in haze. But turn in whatever direction one pleases, there comes the feeling that a chunk of happening is about to fall and strike someone on the head of his or her divers aspirations. President Harding is charmingly an enigma. And it is out of this gracious though baffling attitude toward things in general, and the Negro in particular, that there arises a mist of anxious and somewhat watchful waiting by the folks "who did the work and decided the election." Harding Policy Puzzling. "What is going to be President Harding's policy with reference to the colored American, and a very natural one. It can be stated on the very highest authority that President Harding is going to be the president of the people, and that he proposes to emphasize American citizenship rather than a dual devil one. There have been few things written on race relations that have been commented on in the newspaper as frequently, and he people at large, as the recent article by former President Taft on southern appointments. While he has not yet had an opportunity to give careful consideration to the sub-question, he has no record of any statement he has made up to date, or any inference, that he has made of fact, it can be said with more certainty that he will not it is a situation when he will be an administrator and common judgment," said one of the national leaders. "Continuing, he said: 'This is not an administration, an antagonism, and that applies to all.'" "Lily-Whitism" "Doomed." There seems to be widespread belief that the enlarged committee app EAGUE NGRESS TRATION FACES KING PROBLEMS; AINST LYNCH-LAW Legislation Against Judge nal Court—Harding Expected Colored Leaders Launch Prop- g Justice, Not Jobs.

And it is out of this graward things in general, and the arises a mist of anxious and someols "who did the work and depicted to consider southern representation in the great war" knocks in the head the scheme of the "fily whites" and their followers, to white colored Americans from the republican political man. So strongly were the presentations of the sub-committee, that the committee as a whole refused to take up the subject at their last meeting. It appears now that the committee in their investigations will bring back a report on the conditions of dischrissement and recommend a plan of elimination. Race Leaders Get Busy. **HACE LEADERS GET BETY.** "The Committee on Race Legislation" by the group of national leaders "were here during inregional week and formally opened headquarters at 1216 Pennsylvania Avenue, Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Robert R. Church, A. Cottrill were named representative of all the states in the union, with a view to backing and watching all legislation affecting the race. The enlarged committee is now in process of formation. The committee will be more than halfway between the Capitol and the White House, and is functioning in a state of preparation, and a conference center on momentous questions about a gentle discussion of patronage. This subject has been discussed in many newspapers are commenting on the death of applications for federal compensation with previous administrative Not Seeking Jobs. Among the big surprises is the group of prominent citizens who are not seeking federal appointment. This may be attributed to two things, at least. First, Federal salaries in comparison with the present, high cost of employment, are not the most inviting. There was a time when the Federal employee who got $4000 was ninety-one and one-half per cent of all the people. But today there are several groups of people in all places of the country whom $4000 books small. (There are many to whom it yet looks large.) The second reason, however, is that political wealth are now enjoying commercial wealth. 10,3 P.M.

It is to be deplored that, despite the fact that the war virtually ‘ended in 1918, here we find ourselves in 1921 frantically trying to do in a few days what we have failed to do in over two years. Our program of readjustment has undoubtedly been in a state ‘of “innocuous desuetude” and now since the aftermath of a wild period of prosperity has made its advent, and with the country ‘suffering from a business depression throughout its bounds, | wages sire to be reduced, affecting chiefly unskilled laborers, ‘Prior to the war, notwithstanding the fact that the servant ‘was considered worthy of his hire, only in rare instances did said servant get a decent and respectable compensation, ‘The war came on and with the tremendous increase in the cost ‘of living wages naturally ascended and many men received far more than they were worth, both as skilled and unskilled laborers. Now with a very slight and hardly noticeable decline in the prices of living commodities and necessities, there is to be aywhole- sale reduction of wages. Unless the reduction of wages is followed immediately by the Jowering of the prices on necessities and the cost of living, any ‘wage reduction is going to meet with stiff opposition from both ‘organized and unorganized labor, ‘Already, the heed of the American Federation of Labor has served notice on the country that organized labor will not consent nor stand for any wage reduction. ‘Therefore if the wage reduction program of the employers and ‘the threat or defi of labor leaders are carried out, it will be a case ‘of “Greek meeting Greek” in a tug of war the like of which this ‘country has never before witnessed, while the public, as usual, will ‘pay the fiddler. ' ‘If the wage reduction program is gone about sanely, scientifical-| Jy and systematically, both capital and labor can save the country ftom indistrial and financial turmoil and stagnation and ere long place the tountry back on a solid foundation. | ‘This des not necessarily mean that laborers should be paid ‘the pre-war wages, which were often too low and inadequate to properly care for themselves and their familjes, nor does it sug- ‘gest that wages incompatible with good business judgment and ‘the earning capacity of the employes be maintained. In order to get back to earth and normalcy (a much abused ‘and misused term), both capital and labor may find it ineumbent ‘upon them to compromise or leave the matter to an impartial and ‘unbiased board of arbitration. ‘The Informer opposes any program that will impoverish the em- Piet itle st i. game time t done not favor the employer tinapaially embarrassed as a result of insufficient and inade- quate returns from their investments. ‘The only panacea for the present industrial ill and sblution to’ ‘the perplexing problems of readjustment can be found in the ap- plication of the Golden Rule in business and commerce, as well as Tt eciaion. “ ” “STEPPING ON THE GAS. \ expression of the automobile world w ll autoists and to quite a number who rid me to time. on the gas” increases the speed of the ca a mechanical contrivance called accelerat the driver steps on the gas the more s if the car is treated to an overdose of 5 1d full of trouble, unless it is a car es ‘This is an expression of the automobile world which is very familiar to all autoists and to quite a number who ride in automo- Biles from time to time. _ Stepping on the gas” increases the speed of the car, same being peratéd by a mechanical contrivance called accelerator. “abe more the driver steps on the gas the more speed the car and if the car is treated to an overdose of speed its days ‘short and full of trouble, unless it is a car especially con- for the wear and tear of speedy jaunts and rip-snorting like the average car cannot long endure when the gas is ‘on too much, 80 it is with the human body when it is eon- subjected to too fast a gait and clip. ‘PAGE FOUR REDUCTION OF WAGES TWO YEARS OF NEWS SERVICE AMONG THE CHURCHES YOU ARE WELCOME COLORED TRANSFER LINE IS NOW ENJOYING NICE TRADE FROM RACE =_THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, MARCH 19,1921. —$—$———— Humanity, a9 a whole, is “stepping onthe gn” with a reeles| UIC) Jabandon and a nonchalance that will ultimately prove its undoing.

He was recently chosen as one of the the most outstanding stars of the year by the Drama League of New York, and when a contro- veray arose over his attending the banquet, he courteously in- formed his foes and the public generally that he was promoting his art and not himself. Out of respect to the leading theatrical lights who protested against drawing the “‘color line” in art and who averred that they ‘would not attend unless Gilpin was present, the colored actor at- tended the festivities and was accorded one of the greatest ova- tions ever tendered the honor guest at one of these functions. At the conclusion of his remarks he was wildly applauded by [the white guests of honor and nearly 1,000 guests, who had Sammed the balioom in one of New York City's lading and most ‘exclusive hostelries, ‘The stand that several of the white guests of honor took regard- jing the colored actor’s participation in the festal occasion is indeed lcommendable and cannot be eulogized too much; not because it might have the semblance of so-called “social equality,” but be- Jeause it frowns upon and discourages the raising of the “color /question” in the realm of art, Real art knows no color, creed nor class; and when colorphobia is injected into art, then its decadence begins and society suffers jan irreparable loss, ‘There is entirely too much raising of the “color tine” in demo- cratic America, where it is presumed and presupposed that charac- ter and not color should be the determining factor. Gilpin is not only a theatrical star, but in the gentlemanly and high-class manner in which he deported: himself both prior to and at the Drama League’s banquet, he boosted his stock considerably ‘and proved to his erities and knockers that he is an American of the first magnitude. | Services were well attended at all lepurehes Sunday” Rev.

"At best these medicine shows are nothing more or less than the proverbial “gold brick” scheme, and since our people generally serve as “easy pickings” for such fake propositions, The Informer is sounding this warning and giving this bit of advice. If you are siek or if you feel somewhat under the weather and opine that you need medicine, it will be to your best interest to consult with a reputable and licensed physician,,permit him to diagnose your ease and prescribe for the complaint, Don’t buy these highly-advertised and widely-heralded prepara tions and remedies of “quacks,” “peddlers,” “medicine men” and their ilk. ‘Their sole concern is to get the money, and, working on the hypothesis that a sucker is born every minute, they proceed to parade their wares before an unsuspecting, unsophisticated and ‘unscrupulous public and truly the “suckers” bite, and some healthy bites at that. Their method of operation are sntequated and age-worn, yet hundreds of our people congregate around their platforms to see| members of the race with blackened faces acting fools and to eventually buy a “gold brick.” The city coungil of Houston should pass an ordinance prohibit. ing these fake medicine shows and then see that the law against such “wildeat” schemes is rigidly and rigorously enforged. Pending the passage of such legislation, The Informer suggests that our people learn a little sense and stop being made the “goat” of any and all kinds of schemes and fake propositions. Get your medicine from the drug store upon the prescription of a reputable doctor and stop fattening frogs for snakes, It is good poliey to always spend your money where you stand a chance of getting some tangible returns.
