INDICT MOB LEADERS RACE TO MAN U. S. V. HOSPITAL VOL. IV. GETTING 'EM TOLD By C. F. RICHARDSON. MONDAY'S ELECTION. The voters spoke in Monday's election and, while they acred with the Information only on one issue, with the Information only on the race, finance and operation of the schools), this paper has no apology to make to any person or paper for its position prior to the election. They surreptitiously inserted the $3,000,000 bond issue, not because we were anxious to see our taxes increased, but because all previous bond issues of smaller size, for sale purpose, were colored schools always went begging and waiting. There was no attempt on the part of the school board to buy colored schools, merely to raise the rating of such hue and cry was vicious propaganda of the most dangerous sort and will ultimately be used. If we thought that the good white people of this community would oppose and vote against a bond issue for schools, merely because it was apparent that larger and larger school buildings and more modern facilities, equipment, this paper would advice every colored student to sell his belongings and seek employment. It was really pliable to see certain friends' friend, trying to prejudice white voters against the $3,000,000 bond issue because of an amount of debt would be spent on and for colored schools. Our students and supporters feel now our children must remain in shackles, because how can they harmonize their regimes against the race with their former professed desire for better education? As one prominent colored citizen in White Harbor诉了 Monday, he was impatient to the migration to the North, and he was not so even wary. List the election is over and decide who will be the next president. We present an "unit" board will hold the primary, and a white "military" primary, and a brown bond issue submitted to only care-for the children of the school children, while the colored schools can go to gulah or some other tortoise. The voters have spoken; they do not have a bond issue. Hardly pressed the Taz tax rate, and chose the elective system of selecting, now that they have the elective system of selecting. Now that they have the elective system of selecting, now what are they going to do with it. If we were a betting man we would have to have the colored schools found to have the colored citizenship from the school boards. Stick a right here. "On with the dance!" Selah! COMMENCEMENTS.

Missouri Mobbists Under Indictment (By the Associated Negro Press.) Columbia, Mo.—At this writing the lynching grand jury here has indicted George Barkwell, a contractor, and four others, charged with first degree murder, the first time in the history of Missouri first degree murder has been charged in a lynching case. James T. Scott, a janitor at Missouri University, was done to death for an accused crime, while the sheriff meekly remained unwilling to do his full duty under oath in an attempt to protect his prisoner. Prosecuting Attorney Hulen has shown some determination, and if he goes through as he has started, there is some possibility a measure of justice will be secured and some of the shame of the community wiped out. However, the lynching of Roy Hammond at Bowling Green a few short months age will not down. The authorities did not go very far in that. Attempts were made to furnish leads which would help them. These efforts, though, went for naught. At the session of the legislature immediately following Waltshall Moore tried to get an anti-lynching bill passed, but it met with stern opposition from some of the members who gave as their excuse labor unions were opposed to such a law for fear it would be made applicable to them in labor troubles. All of which goes to show how helpless communities become in such a crisis in the face of local conditions of every sort and the necessity of a national law to wipe out this disgrace. It has developed that Mr. Scott, the man lynched, was highly respected and had been janitor for years at the university. At Columbia the stage is set for speedy convictions. Leaders of the mob can be identified by prominent white men who knew them personally. The community can secure convictions if it wants them. We will see whether or not white men desire to have their laws annuled by the fury of low-browed mobs or whether they prefer to recognize his majesty, Judge Lynch, in some cases when the life of a Negro is at stake. His vaunted civilization is on trial. WHAT ABOUT "JUNETEENTH?" Judging from the little interest now being manifested in the natal day of the colored race in this city, June 19th, the Informer wonders if the celebration next month will go by default? The head of the Emancipation Park board issued a call for a mass meeting last Monday night, but there were not enough citizens present to even hold a meeting; only two members of the park board even being present. This paper has noticed that in the "Juneteenth" celebrations has been dwindling and receding ever since the admission fee was abolished at the gate in connection with these annual events some years since and since it affords no opportunity for graft and "easy pickings." little more than passing interest is now taken in the celebration. Some say that the board is responsible for the present situation, in that the board operates the park all the year and yet refuses to shoulder the responsibility of staging and promoting the "Juneteenth" affairs in their entirety. The board comes back and says that the people have lost interest in the celebrations because there is no revenue produced making possible "graft" and division of the "spoils." In the meantime nothing is being done for the celebration at Emancipation Park on June 19th, and the Informer wonders if this lack of interest angers the end of such annual gala occasions.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, MAY 12, 1923. CONBATTING NEGRO MIGRATION Press dispatches in Sunday's newspapers told of the plans of white Mississippiians to hold monster meetings in every court house in that state on Saturday, May 19, to devise ways and means to check the migration of the colored people to the North and East. It is stated that this movement may be sectional, especially in those states where the labor shortage is precipitating an acute economic situation. It will be indeed interesting to see just what steps and actions these mass meetings will take regarding this exodus of the oppressed and repressed colored citizens of "Bam." many of whom opine that they "would rather freeze or starve to death in the North than to be burned to death in the South." Mass meetings and resolutions will not solve this problem, for the die has been cast. Once the colored man was satisfied and contented on the farms of North Carolina, inequalities and inhumanity have contributed to change his attitude, and, while all are not going North, there is a noticeable increase in the urban population and alarming decrease in the rural population. It appears that quite a number of Southern communities not only do not know that slavery has been abolished in this country, but on the contrary they are maintaining a species of peonage far worse than anything conceived or practiced during the period of human bondage. Previously the black man endured these evils and ills because he had no other alternative, but once other sections of the country began to bid for his services and offer better living and working conditions, the colored brother did what any other sensible man or race would have done under the circumstances. For nearly sixty years the colored man has been fed up on promises of "better times" and "a better day" in the South, but he is beginning to fear that he will have to live to attain the age of Methuselah before this "promised day" can even be discerned on the distant horizon. All of the colored people are not going to leave the South, but already sufficient numbers have migrated to other sections of the country to seriously affect the labor field. This is noticeably true in those Southern states that have treated the colored man the worse. Poor old Mississippi! Once upon a time her colored population exceeded her white population, and instead of trying to make good and worthy citizens out of the large black contingent, every conceivable and inconceivable plan and device was resorted to in an effort to maintain these unfertile and well nigh helpless people in dense ignorance and virtual servitude. The moral tone of the race was lowered by white men cohabiting with colored women (and Mine Mississippi is and was not the only Southern commonwealth guilty of this particular species of notural and clandestine "social equality") and Judge Lynch was forced to accept the large appropriations were made for the education of white children, with hardly a pittance set aside for the training of colored youths. Colored people were counted IN for representation purposes, but counted OUT when it came to voting for these same public officials. Here again the entire South is just, as guilty and culpable as Mississippi. It seems like the very irony of false that Mississippi, the erstwhile and even present oppressor and bitter foe of the colored race, THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, MAY 12, 1923 should lead out in a movement to combat the exodus of her colored subjects. We wonder what steps will be taken to check this migration? Will mob-law become even more rampant in that state? SUNLIGHT CHILD HOLDS AM The Sunlight America Will ticket agents continue to refuse to sell tickets to colored people who desire to leave the confines of that hellish domain? Will shacks house colored scholastics and will short terms characterize the inefficient and rotten school system of that state? Will the courts of justice still deny the black man a fair and impartial trial and will peonage continue to thrive in its most degrading and shameful form? Will force be invoked and employed to combat this hegira or will the issue be met squarely and fairly by the white leaders of that state? And the whole South had better wake up and give this matter of treatment to the colored brother some earnest and sincere consideration or also depopulation of the farms and industrial plants and maitained them will are long become economically paralyzed and financially embarrassed. The only successful way to combat the exodus is for the South to accord the black man the same rights and privileges enjoyed by the other races in Dixie. The colored man must have nice school buildings, efficient teachers, better living conditions, higher wages, justice in the courts, the right of suffrage; in fact, a man's chance. If the South is unwilling to grant these rights and make possible a change in the schools. So then as long as other sections make more inviting and alluring these to mal-treated, underpaid and overworked colored laborers, they are going to migrate to such centers and no number of coaxing nor number of mass meetings can stop them. The South is face to face with a real, honest-to-gooodness problem and not a mere theory, for without man power very little can compromised on the farms and in the industrial plants of this section. The greatest drawback and hindrance to the solution of this vexing and perplexing problem is lack of moral courage. Moral cowardice never has settled an issue amicably, satisfactorily, and permanently and never will; and as long as the South is not going to be the real point at issue, the present situation is going to obtain. "Nothing is settled until it is settled right!" This is an inescapable task that needs to be brought very forcibly home to the South; for if conditions are ever to grow better in the South between the races, the South must accomplish this job, and the soon-to-be task is undertaken the better it will be for the South and nation. The South, in its policy of not wanting the black on one hand and not wanting him to leave on the other, reminds us of the lines in one of the familiar "blues" hits: "I don't want nobody who don't want me—don't you leave me here!" Selah! MASONIC BAND AND THINKING The members of the local Masonic band are complaining at what they term a "raw and rough deal" and many citizens are sharing the same viewpoint regarding the same. Since its organization, this band has willingly and readily played for various causes in this community without charging one penny, some time receiving a donation and more often not getting anything for services rendered. They felt that when they reached the point where they could render real first-class music and be equal to any occasion, they would get a chance to play for some events where a compensation was to be made for services rendered. For the last two years they have given free Sunday concerts at Emancipation Park and played at several local churches gratuitously. Last Thursday the May fete was staged at West End park and despite the sacrifices the members of the Masonic band have made in the past and the many free concerts they have given the people of this city, they were not given even an opportunity to toot a single horn at this event. It seems that nearly one hundred teachers donated 50c each for music and other incidental expenses (maybe it was all for music), but for some unknown reason, which has not been explained to the band men nor public, the Masonic band was conspicuous by its absence. The Informer is not endeavoring to run the May fete nor does this paper desire to assail those who employed another hand (that was their prerogative), but this paper would like to rise and ask, "Is this gratitude?" When the Great Teacher was asked a very pertinent question regarding the payment of taxes to the Roman government, He replied: "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's and unto the God the things that are God's." In asking Caesar deserved tribute (and not even the Great Teacher denied it) the masonic band is worthy of some consideration when a little money is available for paying for such music. The Inferner has nothing against the musicians who played the principals nor committee that hired them; but even the preceding Sunday this Masonic band played, by request of one of the local principals, at the N. A. A. C. P. meeting at St. James's Church, played without pay, two summers for the Emmanuel Park board, with two principals serving as members of said board. The "boys" are sore, disgusted and disheartened and say that this was the "unkindliest cut of all" and that hereafter those desiring their services will certainly "down in front." The great trouble with us as a people is that we do not think at the right time; our hindsight being far superior to our foreseen. To illustrate: We visited a local ward school some time ago and after visiting the class rooms and witnessing the principal vote the children on how many read certain newspapers, very few hands went up when colored newspapers were mentioned; but when other race's papers were called, there were hands galore. After we had concluded our visit and we were about to leave, we asked the principal where we could purchase some good cigars and where we were directed to a place operated by a foreigner. At that juncture we were thought that a colored man who was operating a store in the next block and asked this principal if the race man did not carry and sell cigars. To which the colored principal replied, "Yes, he has cigars; but I never thought about him." Our main object in writing this editorial is to get our people to think about the necessity and importance of thinking about each other more and sanity. One good turn deserves another and the doctrine of reciprocity should be taught both by precept and example. COLUMBUS All Sunday schools were well attended.
