LOUISIANA WHITE WOMEN ISSUE WONDERFUL STATEMENT DEALING WITH INTER-RACIAL RELATIONS New Orleans, La.—An important step in the Southern movement for better race relations was taken in New Orleans, March 21-23, when more than forty of Louisiana's prominent women—leaders in religious and civic organizations—met to study the situation, formulated a vigorous statement in behalf of good will and justice between the races, and accepted membership in the Louisiana race relations committee. Declaring their belief that Christian principles offer the only solution of race problems, and that the South is today the "crucial testing ground" of these principles, they pledged their support to the effort to secure for Negroes as well as for whites the protection of law and "the privileges and conditions to which they are entitled as citizens, such as sanitation, lighting and grading of streets, better housing conditions," and other civic advantages. One of the strongest paragraphs in the paper is that relative to lynching, which is as follows: "We register herewith our protest against the barricade custom of lynching, which arouses violent and brutal passions, brings law into disrepute, is inhuman and brutal, and causes much violence." We hold that no circumstances can exist such violent disregard for law and that no instance is it an exhibition of chivalric consideration and honor of womanhood. The statement lays strong and repeated emphasis on the responsibility of white people, as the more advantageous race, to set the Negro a worthy example, protect him from vicious influences, and encourage and help him to rise in the position of character and conduct. The editors of newspapers are to in behalf of more generous publicity for the Negro's worthy achievements, and less for stories of crime and unworthiness. Recognizing the wisdom of conference and co-operation as a means of adjusting racial differences and promoting the general welfare, the group pledged its support to the plans developed by the Commission on Interracial Co-operation, a Southern organization, which has 800 state and county committees throughout the South. In Louisiana the state committee, of which the women's group becomes a part, is headed by Prof. Leo. M. Favrot, of Baton Rouge.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, APRIL 28, 1923. In drawing or attempting to draw the difference between the above two words. The Informer wishes to call the attention of our people to the vast difference in the words; for, apparently, too many of us are always trying to do the former and neglecting the latter. The dictionary definition of imitation is: "The act of following as a pattern, model or example; the copying or striving to copy, in acts, manners and the like; the producing a semblance or likeness, in form, color, qualities, conduct, manners, etc.; the act of counterfeiting." Emulation means the act of attempting to equal or excel in qualities or actions; rivalry; desire of superiority, attended with effort to attain it; ambition to equal or excel; competing; contesting; contending; striving. Apropos the present marathon dancing craze and practical reversion to heathenism, we are reminded of the fact that our people are too prone to imitate the vices and superfluous of other racial groups and fail to emulate the virtues and fundamentals that go to make a robust and vigorous race. Every craze, fancy or tum, pulled off by the other race, soon finds certain of Ethiopia's swarthy offsprings trying to imitate it and thus these dark-skinned imitators go jazzing and buzzing along, indulging in and pulling off acts that impoverish rather than enrich them. If more of our people would spend more time emulating the good and great qualities in the other great races of the world, instead of aping after them in the shallow fads and modern fashions, we could virtually change our status overnight. But no, we think we are smart and demonstrating unusual ability and resourcefulness to copy or after to copy after every little craze or folly of other races, and in this act we make ourselves the laughing stock of the civilized world. The Informer is not necessarily Puritanic in its views nor does it tie in that people should not engage in amusements and enjoy recreation and relaxation; but this must be tempered with common sense and good judgment or else we are the greatest sufferers. Races that are striving to reach the summits attained by other races of their day and time can least afford to engage in habits and practices that tend to undermine and deteriorate our racial stamina and lower both our moral and economic standing. Races in the South, that judges and rates the whole colored race by the unbecoming act or acts of one member of the race; yet that same method of reasoning (if such it can be called) never holds the entire white race responsible for the evil deeds and bad practices of one member of the Aryan racial group. Moreover, we have neither the time nor means to even try to follow suit in all these new-fangled fads and "thing-a-ma-jig" of the race; we have neither the time nor means to hold members of our race forever trying to imitate the white man in his foolishness and folly and not trying to emulate him in the characteristics, traits and deportment that go to make a great and powerful race. We need to cut out the jazzy stop on the gas; cease trying to your high in the realm of good times; get back to normality, and get back to normality. Informer is not the name and attention to the worthwhile and laudatory things of life. If we must act in some capacity, let us emulate and not imitate the other races. The emulable builds his house on the rock, while the imitator erects his shack in the sand. Selah! PAGE FOUR NEW SUBSCRIPTION RATES: IMPORTANT!

STANLEY, Vicar St. Clement, Episcopal Church ARTICLE II. It was very clearly shown in last week's article that, superficial and blagged interpretation of the texts in the Bible, did not support the white slave's occupation. Negroes were to be inferior forever. Japheth, and in these slaves were indeed the drawers of water in a牢's cellar. This phrase is seen in Chapter 2 and 1st verse Joshua: "Wherefore Purpose of Bible. In fact, the Bible was not given to man, but for one supreme purpose, and that purpose to manifest the power of God in man the way to salvation and to eternal life. Again, there is unanimous agreement that no passages of scripture can be interpreted in such a manner as to deny any other passage. The white man ignored this fact and his texts therefore became a pre Some Texta Used. used us now look at some of the texts used by the white man to prove the Negro inferior and see what they mean. The text is found in the 5th chapter of the book of Genesis, beginning at the 5th verse. The story contained in this text and following ones tell us about Nahob and the caring of his youngest son Ham. Nahob, the youngest son of the handman or agriculturist after he was released from the ark. Ole day he became drunk from the fruit of his vineyard. In the drunken stupor he lay naked in his tent and his youngest son was taken away from his condition. Japheth and Shem, in pity, being older, covered their rather's makedness, walking backwards to avoid seeing it. When Nahob awoke being told of what Ham had done, he went to the servants of servants shall be unto his brethren." And he said, "Blessed be the Lord God of Ham, and Canan shall be his servants. God shall enlarge his servants. God shall enlarge the tents of Ham and Canan shall be his servants." These words comprise what in known as the celebrated "curse of Ham." Ordinary Interpretation. The ordinary interpretation says that the Negro was cursed from the time of Ham to the present day, and that he is cursed forever. Competent Interpretation Competent Biblical scholars deny that all dark people were cured for the sins of the son of Sam They say first, but that Sam That is, there was a genuine cure just as there was in the case of Jacob healing. Then, then, was truly cured Curse Fulfilled But this curse fell upon one branch only of Ham's descendants. This branch wasquent history when Israel under Joachim took possession of Palestine, the mighty and proud city of Tyre ransacked to the arms of Alexander. It Carthage, that proud city of Africa, Carthage, that proud city of Africa, Three these historic defences of these ancient cities complete, all true Biblical, historical, and ethnological history. The darker, darker people were and are forever included in the curse of Yoho to be made no mistake. The curse was real. But it was visted and confined when Palestine or the land of Canan fell into the possession of Tyre. capitulated the net of Alexander, and when Carthage built centuries after both the curse and its fulfillment have nothing to cool our armor of manhood of time and let us, therefore, think, say and act that are pure, lovely, true and that time of our own time Ethiopia, as now represented in us, will indeed frail her banner Another Text. There is still, another text which there is still, another text which the Kegovos inferiority, and which has delivered in our ears so much that we believe it ourselves. It is this: "water." These words only occur three times in the Bible. Take us then to mean, "first instance of water." The first instance occurs in the 29th chapter of the book of Deuteronomy: "your little ones, your wives from the heower of thy wood and the wood from the heower of thy wood and the wood from the viewpoint of honest and intelligent interpretation, we see that Moses is speaking of the blessings of the covenant, and urging them to keep the words of the covenant. And the drawing of water were tasks usually performed in this text has no implication of the course of Noah or anything at all to them. The words of the sons of Shem and Japheth all the days of his life—through all ages of his life—were slaves at some period of their development. Again, and again, the sons of Noah THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, APRIL 28, 1923. THE MUDDLE AT TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL THE MUDDLE AT TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL The locating of the United States Veteran Hospital at Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala., has stirred up a veritable hornet's nest. It is not the locating of the hospital at this place that has caused the furore and hubbub, but the plan of the administration to operate the hospital with colored professionals and employees-in its entirety was more than many of the white Southerners, and especially Alamanians, could stomach. ARTICLE II. It is rather difficult to really understand our white folks at times; they charge that we are inefficient and incarcerated certain things and yet they are never willing to give us an opportunity to demonstrate our mettle. They sit in judgment and render a verdict against us before ever hearing our side of the case and testimony from competent and reliable witnesses. But the Alabama case, protest and opposition to colored professionals are without the bounds of reasoning and rationalism. The whites charged that colored physicians and nurses should not serve in this hospital, where all the inmates are to be colored veterans of the world war; and yet Alabama has a state statute which imposes a heavy fine and year's imprisonment upon white nurses who attend colored patients. (This law, by the way, was passed before it was definitely decided to locate this hospital that state.) It seems that the sight of a little money can nullify or make paucity a mother of evading a law which expressly prohibits certain acts, most notably in Dixie. Are these protesters and opponents so interested in these colored veterans that, in their anxiety to see these black men receive the best service from the professionals of the white race, they are perfectly willing to violate a state statute? Or is the sight or hope of lucrative positions, financial emoluments and an apportion to "lord it over and boss niggers" the real "bug under the clim." It is funny, this peculiar Southern racial psychology and reasoning. The Southern white man has spent and is still spending millions of dollars annually to educate and train colored men and women for fields of useful endeavor and service to the social fabric; both races study the same text books, generally receive the same training, instruction and pass the same whiteing examinations to ply certain professions in the various states of the country. Yet despite notwithstanding all of this, when the colored man aspires and endeavors to attain a place of service, good pay and emolument, forthwith the cry is raised either of "social equality," "incompetency," "inefficiency" or some other scare-crow charge. While the gullible public is trying to swallow this peculiar concession of the declaimers and opponents slip in and get the goods—"yeth thur," virtually "corner the market." They had done this to the veterans' hospital at Tuskegee, but report has it that President Harding has issued an edwe (he hope it is true) that all whites must be replaced with colored and thus Tuskegee, founded and nurtured on racial amity and goodwill, seems to be the hotbed just now of racial hate, antipathy and proscription; all because the government will pay some good salaries and benefits to the white position this year for institution for rehabilitating the colored fighters in the world struggle for democracy, and it appears that the wrong people are going to be on the receiving end. Some of our white folks preach and believe in segregation and discrimination as long as neither interferes with their purse nor inconveniences them; but the moment it interferes with their purse, the law imposes on them, they are willing to forget, overlook or override the law into possession of what they believe to be their rightful heritage. Truly consistency is a jewel, an almost rare and extinct specimen of Southern logic! MENDACIOUS MINISTERIAL MENDICANTS The attention of the Informer has been called to a practice indulged and persisted in by quite a number of colored preachers of this city, which should be stopped; for it is hurting the cause of the race and driving white friends away from us in aiding and helping worthy and meritorious church appeals. It seems that there are any number of these so-called preachers, who do not even pastor a church, who are regular callers and solicitors at certain banks and other white people friendly disposed towards the race. One leading white citizen is complaining because these reputed colored divines are taking advantage of his generosity, and several others are getting sour on contributing to the many and sundry church appeals. No minister nor layman should solicit funds for any church that only exists on paper and our white friends should absolutely refuse to donate one red pen to these appeals coming from these mendacious ministerial mendicants. It is high time that we were away from this continual begging role, and maybe if we did not possess so many churches there are not much almores in this city that need and are worthy of financial assistance from our white friends, but when these lying and grafting beggars misrepresent things and secure donations for fictitious and non-existent churches, all colored churches, sooner or later, will suffer the consequences. Those who frequent banks and offices often see these grafters and beggars hanging and standing around, Uncle Tome like, but in hand, waiting or trying to get a little handout, and, in the situation of the situation, they "work both sides of the street" with painful regularity. Then, there are other ministers pastoring churches, who solicit and collect funds for church building or improvement and take said money and spend it for bootleger liquor or on some woman. Let us be understood in this editorial. We are not charging that all the colored preachers of the city are guilty of these acts, but entirely too many of our ministers deport themselves very unbelieving and indiscretely in these and other respects. The informer is not hostile to some of the guilty抄袭 charge; but this paper knows that we can never build a real race with such misfits and mendacious mendicants essaying to lead our group. Truly, the servant is worthy of his hire and when a pastor can not at least earn his salary as a shepherd of a flock in a city like Houston, there is something wrong with him; he undoubtedly misinterpreted the supposed call and should look to other fields for a livelihood and not resort to lying and begging and thereby insulting the community. Such practices should and must be stopped, and the man that persists in this game should be smoked out, unfrocked and ex-communicated Japheth, and in these cases the enslaved were indeed the hewers of wood and stone that they certainly were not some of Ham. This phrase in once again in the fifth chapter and 21st verse of the book of Johann: "Wheat ye are accursed from being bidden, and houses of wood and drawers of water for the house of my God." A disinterested mention of light as to the light that this curve was placed upon the Gleddenites because they and tricked Johann in thinking they were distant when in the sanctuary, or as Johann said, "for the house of my God." This, therefore, slavery or indiscriminate slavery. This phrase occurs once more in the 3rd chapter and 14th verse of the book *The Bible*. It is used for the preservation of the city and the entire inhabitants of New England, and for the protection of the fortress and the clinker in case of the impending seize. This case is in true of the other cases in the same legal and malicious interpretation that the sons of Ham were to be hewers of the house; further, Women drew the water for the household; instance Rebekah the housewife; further, Women shed was the dave nor a daughter of Ham. Let us take course and in due time our return to the city. St. Clements P. E. Church. 2009 Hadley Street. (Take Dowling Car) The Rev, W. P. Staley, same address Order of Services.

This pictorial history of Rusia's struggle is a wonderful example of the power of visual art to can picture can bring home to us the vital episodes of world progress.
