FINAL EDITION THE HOUSTON INFORMER RACE WOMEN SEE COOLIDGE VOL. V. (Bell's note). The emotion, "Gutting," is a word that has been changed in "The Department," has been changed in "The Department," in which we not only use other, but not the same words, but we think we are. The signifier and expression we say are the experience we have. When we experience, as he wrote, "a heartbeat and problem of one day and that." SWIFT RERIBUTION. A Harrington consular officer, noted or notorious for his brutal and barbaric treatment to enforced prisoners, has recently won his departure from the Army. He is shown here and all "bad officers" and "summer" go,雾 or later. The day prior to recording what proved to be a fatal wound from the bullet, he was arrested, fined, fined, fined, his his officer, it is alleged, arrested a colored youth, assaulted him with a pistol, then shot him in the arm and then threw him into the Harrington The following morning this officer's breakfast consisted wholly and chiefly of bullets, and, because he could not digest them, he has gone to a realm where beating up, shooting and incarcerating coloured men for trial of fences and for no offenses at all, will be indulged in and practiced no more. The law of retribution-sustaining and reaping-is sure and inseparable; yet, while in this case retributive justice was swift and certain, the mills of the gods grind slow, but they grind exceedingly fine. Take the expo of Mayor Camfield of Johnstown, Pa., the city official who ordered all colored Americans, who had not resided in that burg for the last seven years, to leave town. Seven days after he had issued his autocratic and unconstitutional edict, the voters of his town refused to re-elect him mayor of Johnstown and thus he will be afforded many hours to sit and engage in sober reflections and meditation and pop his fingers over his blunder and "honest-." His act was an attempt to play politics and thus secure the political backing of a certain organization that is attempting to run the politics of this country, but vex well vox del (the voice of the manly in the voice of the No man can chest nure thwart the man who will cast the Cufffield will somn write his name with an "er," which not only means "wayer" but "wayered" (put "wayer" in). Patientia and endurance will win the battle, but patientia and endurance as a good soldier, will ultimately trample the "Vergnage is sake." I will repay, with Jehovah, the God of truth, with mercy.

"Be not deceited: God is not mucked, for whatever a man (race, people, or race) may be (or they may also) Sow." DISORDERLY PUBLIC CONDUCT. Three colored passengers on a Houston street car were arrested during the week, because the operator of the car was a police officer, they refused to order. It is disgusting, sickening and exasperating to watch a police officer misconduct and listen to the bartender and vecteur conventions indulged in by the police on street and in public places. Some of them seem to fear that they will not be seen unless they become unusually noisy and loud in their conversation, and the way they carry on in a pain. Some of our folks, particularly some of our women, seem to think that the payment of the 7-cent street car fare licenses them to habitually tell the neighborhood gossi- and town runners on the street cars; while some of our men seem to be absoiled with the idea that the 7 cents entitles them to ride and run the electric car. Our public conduct should be orderly, and we should refrain from loud talk, noisy conversation, behavior, laughter and other indifferent ones on the street cars and in public places. "Give many these ear, but few thy voice," said Shakespeare, the literary gem par excellence of England and the Aryan race. If we would listen more and talk less, we would enhance our racial stock by our public conduct and department. We are not trying to sit in judgment on those colored people arrested for "disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace" on a public carrier, neither are we admitting their guilt nor trying to prove their innocence. SOUTHERN CITY ERECTING MANY SCHOOL HOUSES Atlanta Tries to Combat Negro Exodus by Extensive School Program — Spending $1,179,270.50 for Colored School Buildings, Fire-proof and Modern Construction-Cornerstone Laid. (By Associated Negro Press.) Atlanta, Ga.—The dawn of a new day is recognized in the development of the public school system in Atlanta, Georgia, including both white and colored children. Following the passage of a recent bond issue totaling eight million dollars, four million dollars were allowed for school building and repair. M. Bouchard and George W. Strayer of the department of educational research of Columbia University were recruited to make a survey of Atlanta public schools and make plans for the system's program to adequately provide for the school population for the next quarter of a century. Because of the backwardness of the system this bond issue provided less than one-third of the money necessary to carry the program to state of completion. When it is remembered that only one percent of students built in Atlanta in the last 25 years, one gets some idea of the retardation of the Atlanta public school system. Five fireproof and as-modernly constructed school buildings with aggregated cost of $1,179,270.59 as can be found anywhere in America are being erected. These buildings when completed will have from 25 to 35 rooms. All of these are nearing completion so far as the present bond money will make it possible. They are so constructed as to permit additional units when more money is available. The schools are named for prominent colored people or white people who have rendered exceptional service in an educational way to the Negro. The names are as follows: The William Cregman school, the Edwin P. Johnson school, the Edmund Asa Ware school, and the David T. Howard school. The new combination junior high and senior high schools which are in be named the Booker T. Washington Junior and Senior High cost $342,859.57, including land and building. The total cost of construction of the fifth school and the second is $1,179,270.57. The new combination more money than has been spent for school buildings in Atlanta for all the people since the civil war. Cornerstones were laid at the Edwin P. Johnson and Edmund Assa Ware schools during the present week. The principal address at the corner-stime laying of the Edmund A. Ware school was delivered by Jesse O. Thomas, field secretary of the National Urban League; dedicating poem by Mr. Thomas Jefferson Pinnagan. The principal address at the Edwin P. Johnson school cornerstone laying was delivered by B. J. Davis. Dr. H. R. Butler and Dr. M. Ashby Jones also spoke. Rev. E. L. Harrison, pastor of André Baptist Church, who has, with the help of the Green West, arrived home this week and will fill the public at the institute with the joy of sharing the members are all gloed to see him and his better half back and both request a very pleasant and enjoyable trip. They Convention at Los Angeles, Cal. HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1923 TUSKEGEE LOST PROVEN FRIEND; WILCOX PASSES (By the Associated Negro Press). Tultegee Institute, Ala.—The announcement of the passing of William W. Wilcox, chairman of the board of trustees of the Tultegee Institute, occasioned much brief at the Institute. Mr. Wilcox had been in ill health for the past two years, but his death was a distinct shock to the students and members of the faculty. Principal Robert R. Mason attended the funeral, which was held in New York City, Pridky afternoon. Dr. Anton Phelps Stakes, former secretary of Yale University, succeeds Mr. Wilcox as chairman of the board of trustees. For seventeen years Mr. Wilcox had been a member of the board of trustees and succeeded Seth Law as chairman in 1916. Both as a member of the board and as chairman he proved devoted to the institute and was at all times devising plans to develop the work and to increase the usefulness of the school. He was a leading and devoted friend, as well as an active, interested trustee. His loss will be mourned by graduates and former students all over the country. As a trustee of the Tultegee Institute and as president of the New York Board of Education, Mr. Wilcox proved himself a staunch friend to the race and public intermines he existed in private and public places. He was a member of the Negro race in the Institute of the Negro Institute in mourning his loss and other friends in mourning his loss. DALLAS BUSINESS MEN HERE. Honor Pickens IN HOME TOWN OF FALLEN MARTYR (By the Associated Negro Press.) Springfield, Ill.—When H. W. Pay, custodian of Lincoln's Tomb, presented William Pickens with a memorial booklet and a piece of the wood from Lincoln's home, the only house that Lincoln ever owned, it was the second of the United States's first national honor. The grandiose of Mrs. A. Lincoln recalled the visit of Booker T. Washington to the home of Lincoln some years ago. The visitor was also carried through the state capital, the tomb and many other items. The "Lakewood Colony Home for Colored Grphans and Old People." The white ministers of the city, including Jewish rabbis, Salvation Army representatives, and others, gave a lunch in honor of the guest at the Y. W. C. A., at which Mr. Pickens was delivered. The "Lakewood Colony Home for Colored Grphans and Old People." Rabbi Fruhlem and the Church. The rabbis and others asked for further instruction and literature on the subject. It is interesting to note that while the colored rabbis, they turned out to get up the "best clothes" when invited by the white Ministerial Union to "meet" the colored visitor. At sight there was a great church. Mr. Pickens says he is to visit eleven points in Illinois. "HOUSTON'S GOT 'EM" COLORED WOMEN PRESENT, PLEAS TO NATION HEAD Representatives of Negro National Educational Congress Memorialized Coolidge to Use His High Office to Secure, for All Americans, Their Constitutional Rights. (By Asociated Negro Press.) Washington, D.C.—A committee composed of the following women: Mrs. L. A Pinkney, Texas; Mrs. Julia West Hamilton, District of Columbia; Mrs. Allyce Durolo, Ohio; Mrs. Mara Montgomery Cook, Maryland; Mrs. Ida Plummer Listen, Indiana; Mrs. Eva Hawke Blake, Maryland; Mrs. Minen L. Gary, Illinois; Mrs. Estelle C. Jackson, New Jersey and Miss Virginia L. Williams, District of Columbia, representing the Negro National Educational Congress, called at the White House and presented to the president a memorial, calling his attention to the many hallmarks of the American Negro, and urging him to great power to secure for the state to which they are entitled under the federal constitution. The committee was accompanied by J. Silan Harris, president of the congress, and Henry E. Hagans, a member of the executive committee. Mr. Harris introduced the committee to the president and stated the object of their visit. Mrs. Julia West Hamilton read the following brief address which deeply impressed the president: Mr. President: We come from the educational Congress, a civic organization, forty-two states of the union, with a strong commitment to the development of the Ngo. The objective of our quarter century of existence working for the moral, social and cultural development of the Ngo. The mission today is to call your attention to our welfare of our people, and, if possible, enlist your sympathy and your moral welfare of our people, and, if engaged, we are engaged. After more than fifty years of freedom, education, work and service, we are reinforced by an unparalleled record of patriotism, the Ngo finds itself in the twentieth century, pleading for those rights *citizenship that you own* the republic. We plead for an opportunity to exert our influence on the state of the union, and for that political recognition to which the votes three million legal women enlist us. We pray for the upblowing of the law upon every foot of American soil. We appeal, through you, to the people, the supporters of all our bound and bounded citizens to be murder, terrorize and destroy the group of any particular group of our citizens. We want to take this opportunity of saying to you that fifteen million Americans have the power to adhere you for your manhood, beauty character, great ability and love. We want to guarantee under the federal constitution that you for the granting to them of any guarantee under the federal constitution pleasure in submitting this brief statement to you for your most cared consideration. The president in reply to the ad- dress of the senator in the House is in full accord with every statement made through. He backed the Negro League and told the committee that they were in full accord with the statement. Carnegie Library SUPER-STARS SHONE VERY BRILLIANTLY IN MUSICAL MELANGE WEDNESDAY NIGHT Leading Musical and Literary Artists of Houston Appeared on Greatest Program in City's History—All Numbers Went Over Big—“Rigoletto” Brought Down House—Bethel Quartet “Strutted Their Stuff”—Full House Enjoyed and Cheered Renditions. (By W. E. GREEN). Selections only. There has never appeared in Houston, local nor foreign. Never has the art of the music taken such a bright array of musical talent. The conditions themselves showed that stars only can be used. We are now in the process of making the most of the glory of Houston. The music of the Antioch Baptist Church, the first of the first, is not for such a great agreement of artisans. In that Super-Stars Choral Club we have been meeting the same number of artists, but such a great agreement of artisans may accomplish when we surrender ourselves to the good of the whole. In that Super-Stars Choral Club we have been meeting the same number of artists, but such a great agreement of artisans may accomplish when we surrender ourselves to the good of the whole. (By W. E. GREEN). Haywood is a star of the first magnitude in the musical firmament, in that he has organized men, the majority of whom had no previous knowledge of music, and the first one was the first to be called a critical aggregation to which all Houston points with pride. From the fact that the instruments used are varied makes the achievement the more marvelous. He has been a member of the National乐团 and entered directress of Bethel Baptists in the church, who has won her laurels in the musical world, marched ahead through the process of the world’s old business, and has been the world’s chief organizer of that expectant psychology. He has been the first to be called a critical aggregation to which all those who are to appear first on program. He was never in better form than he was in the more doze. He has completed a full work as he accustomed skill. The readings of M. M. B. Smith and T. M. Shadowens were excellent and well received. The trombone solo by H. T. Hogan, with accompany'ing by Miss Freddie Lights, was a rare treat, which the audience greatly appreciated. The bass solo by C. F. Richardson, manager, came up to the standard and he maintained his reputation as one among our leading soloists. The contralto rendition by Miss Mattie Overton, with old "Old Regular" at the piano, Prof. J. Will Jones, and Dr. L. M. Mitchell with violin obligato, was one of the outstanding features of the program. Dr. Mitchell's violin crept into our souls and carried the audience into ecstasy. The Super-Stars Choral Club, directed by Mrs. P. O. Smith, rendered master BETHEL'S BIG RALLY CLOSES SUNDAY NIGHT The financial drive conducted by the Bethel Baptist Church, which has been established for 15 years will terminate Sunday night, October 7, at the temporary church home, 608 Robin Street, Fourth Ward.

PHILLIPS CAPTIVATED ROSENBERG AUDIENCE Special to The Informer. Roemberg, Texas, Oct. 2—Much more than a celebration of the accomplishments of J. C. Phillips for his splendid recital at St. Luke M. E. Church Monday in St. Luke, he caught his audience, bearly caught his audience, declared him an artist in his line. Prof. A. W. Jackson, principal of the high school of correspondence, made an educational attentive the Port Bend county institute were present. It was a great pleasure to have the intelligence. Too much can not be said in photographs upon the White House grounds, the committee that directed the artist—H. H. J. Johnson, pastor. After being photographed upon the White House grounds, the committee that directed the artist, highly pleased with their visit. They were graffited, they stated, with the committee's secretary, C. Bacom Siemp. who informed them that the "doors of the house" were opened to the dependable Negroes of the nation," and congratulated the artists of their plan to the president. The pastor, manager and officials of Batalet Baptist Church are overwhelmed with the number of people made in the way of service by each participant. They are certainly encouraged and are resigned to push their new edifice for all it is worth. WOMEN'S TEARS MAKE GOVERNOR STOP PRACTICE WOMEN'S TEARS MAKE GOVERNOR STOP PRACTICE (By the Associated Negro Press.) Columbus, S. C.—If Governor McLeod has his way, Negro and white prisoners at the state prison will not be chained together in the future. Recently there has been considerable complaint lodged with the state authorities concerning this practice. The governor is determined to put a stop to the practice. "It savors too much of social equality," says the governor's friends, "and he is going to stop the perfidious practice." The dreadful situation reached a climax when Jack Collins, a white war veteran, was chafed to a Negro, when the two men were conveyed on a railway trail to the penitentiary. Some white women are said to have wept when they witnessed the degrading spectacle. Hence, one of the reasons for the governor's determination to stop the awful spectacle. MANAGER FRANKLIN MFG W. L. McCoy, general manager of the Madame N. J.

While in the city he is the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. Hobart Thomas, the president of the Texas Texas parlor, all of which are doing splendidly and reflecting much credit upon the local managers and cops of PRICE: 7 CENTS LIDGE YES, WE HAVE NO WHITE HOUSE, IS FORGOTTEN LAY Colored Americans Are Welcome at President's Mansion Once More—In for Better Play Than Since Roosevelt's Time—Slemp's Slump Rising —Matthews Outlines Platform. (By Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, Ill.—According to those in the "know," Negroes of the country are in for a better play at the White House than they have had in the years since Roosevelt. This word comes from those who have had a chance to talk with President Coolidge, and with his closest advisers. It is now known that Bascom Slemp, the Virginian selected as the president's secretary, has felt the force of their disapproval. Slemp declares that he is not prejudiced toward Negroes, and points to acts in his official and public career indicating the contrary. One of these is his national career of the national republican committee for the seating of Robert R. Church in 1920. An predicted political worker from Mr. Coolidge's home state have entered the first to get the fur of the hat in the race. William C. Matthews, prominent attorney of Boston, and at one time an It is Mr. Matthews' firm conviction that Negroes are in for a squarer deal, after talking with Mr. Coolidge, the latter's private secretary, Mr. Clark, and with Mr. Shemp. The Boston lawyer declares that these men are all "un识者" and are not the same as the American, even though as citizens of a great republic. Mr. Matthews believes Negroes of the country should unite upon a program for the administration to let behind. This platform should be made definite and put in such form that the powers that he would recognize it as something tangible to work upon. Five points named by Mr. Matthews in such a connection are: 1. The election to congress of a New-Year Party whatever district it can best be done. 2. The needed encouragement persuading Negroes that they persist in running for office in any communities where they think they have a chance of election. 3. The use of our united influence to secure the enactment of a federal anti-mob law. 4. The sending of a commission of representative experts to the Interstate Commerce Commission to demand equal accommodations for Negro pass-ers who serve the separate course of law is in force by state legislation. 5. The use of the energy and influence of our fifteen millions to have the president adopt as a national policy a scheme of compulsory education with equality of facilities and equality of length of term for all pupils. 6. It might be said that such a program as has been established by Mr. Matthews and other activities of the last few weeks seems to precede a reawakening among Negro politicians of the North. Hitherto the Negro's case has been largely in the hands of men from other sections. The fresh activity of the North should have an altogether weary effect, backed up as it is by the possibility of more independent leverage. DR. STONE BACK. Dr. P. F. Stone, with offices at 400% Milam Street, one of our leading medical practitioners and former band of the Lees Star Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association, has returned to the city from the medical department of Fort Worth and several digests and recuperation at Marina. The doctor is again on the job, administering to the warts and needs of his many patients.

Teacher of English PITZWATER in the Moods Bible Institute of Chicago. (GB) 1922, Western Newspaper (U.S.) LESSON FOR OCTOBER 7 ABRAHAM, A BLESSING TO THE WORLD LESSON TEXT-Gum. 12:1-14. 18 12:15-18. 14 **GOLDEN TEXT—"To The shall all** **be blessed the blood be blessed."** GEN. 12.13 **PRIMARY TOPIC—Doing a Blessing.** Who Became a Blessing to the World. 1. Abraham's Ancestors (Joh. 22, 14, 14). Very likely as a young man, he himself wished idolatry. Tradition tells us that Abraham's struggle against idolatry. At any rate, his experience was as such to well-wish God, and that he was God the Lord. He knew how hopelessly disastrous idolatry was to the morale of the people, and, thereafter, he tried to lead them to God. 2. Abraham's Call (Gen. 12, 11, cf. Acts 7, 23). God came to him in Ic. of the Chadies and said unto him: "One is tied to the country with a strong bond. Abraham had lived long strife and strong affinities to his country. 3. "Get thee from thy kindred." Abraham had wished to bind him his native land, but his relatives as well, even his father's house. Since his kindred were idolatry, he had to become a pilgrim, to be without a home in Canaan, the only land he ever knew. 3. "Into the land that I will show thee." He was not told what or where the land was. He went out not knowing whither he went (Heb. 11:8). While he dwelt in tents during his earthly sojourn, yet "he looked for a city which hath foundations whose builder and maker is God" (Heb. 8:10). And thus he was a typical believer called out from his family and country, and renouncing idolatry, he walked by faith, testifying to his and succeeding generations to the faithfulness of God. It costs to obey God, but there is an abundant recompense. 111. God's Promise to Abraham (Gen. 12:28; 18:17-18). 1. The Father of a Great Posterity (v. 2). This has been literally fulfilled. He was not to go out primarily for what he could get, but for what he could do. The minister and missionary forget their own personal blessings in the supreme joy of their converts who are the fruits of their labor. No name in all history equals that of Abraham in its honorable influence. His is the name of honor among Jews, Mohammedans and Christians. They all acknowledge him as father. A Blessing to Others (vv. 2, 3). He was not only to be great and wonderful, but also to be blessed to hemer to others. He has become a blessing to countenance multitude. This is the prevailing law of the spiritual world. He is the one who respond to this law because the very touchness of God, no precious things, cannot be missed them, and curse them who curse them. God makes common cause with His people. So virally is He with one person, who is the one who treats them. To matriarch Gods of children is to lift the hand against God. God is to treat them. God is to protect them. Not only is this so with reference to wilful acts against His children, but neglect or refusal to do good works against them or against them as for or against Him. God Testing Abraham (Gen. 22:2-13). Abraham's faith was shown in that he obeyed the call of God and left his land and kindred, but his faith reached its highest point in offering Inasc. For many years, he had waited for the fulfillment of God's promise as to his heir. At last that promise was a reality. Abraham's hope was not the ordinary hope which fills the heart of every father, that his name and work may be perpetuated through his son. A new nation and the world's Savior were to spring up from Abraham through this son. Through this great ordeal, his faith responded enabling him to believe that God would give Inasc back from the dead (Heb. 11:17-19). God tries all His children. The more important, the more severe the trial. Education. The worst education that teaches self-denial is better than the best that teaches everything else and not that. —J. Sterling.

We wonder how many of you saw a news item in the papers last Saturday about that conference Remmel of Arkansas held with President Coolidge? Well, to make a long story short and “get you told,” Remmel, who is republican national committeeman from Arkansas, conferred with the chief executive of the nation last Saturday and suggested the creation of a “commission of representative Southern Negroes to advise the Negroes of Southern states against migrating to the North.” We always thought that the president's time was too valuable to be taken up with such silly, inconsistent and unreasonable things as this suggestion of the Arkansas politician; but since the chief magistrate only had to listen to this popcockcock, we presume he endured the misery as a good soldier. It is really amusing to see so many of our Southern white friends trying to “pass the buck” on this migration question, as if leading and representative colored men can stop or even discourage the exodus. As usual, in professing a desire to remedy an ill or rectify an evil in the South, our white people put the cart before the horse and mess up and muddle the whole situation. All the talk about black men stopping the movement of black people to the North is pure tommyt and genuine buncombe, and race leaders would make about as much headway in checking the exodus as a man would in trying to bale the Atlantic ocean with a gallon nail. Let Remmel and those who think like he does, look around and see the conditions existing right under their very noses and in their very faces, which are causing these colored Americans to desert the South and try their lot in other climes and sections. Remmel claims to be a republican and the republican party sprang into existence largely on the question and issue of human rights, liberties and freedom. What does Remmel's state to do and for colored citizens? Let us visit Elaine in the delta section and read its gruesome, shocking and shameful story of outrages, horrors and actitudes hardly without parallel in the annals of civilization! Black men and women were mobbed, hunted and murdered like rats and others were railroaded to the electric chair and state penitentiary, just because they sought to organize themselves so as to get a better price for their cotton and dared to employ legal counsel to see that they received a fair and honest settlement (something unknown and never practiced by Remmel's white colleagues in dealing with colored farmers and tenants.) We wonder if Remmel ever heard about or read of the "Elaine riot" and how colored citizens were ruthlessly and barbarously treated by the democracy and aristocracy of his state? Does he know that the United States Supreme Court has ordered a new trial for several of those condemned men and requested the federal court to take cognizance of the cases, because there --- was not a semblance of a fair, impartial and orderly trial held and the trials were nothing more or less than mob law? Take Remmel's own party in that state and see how it has outlawed and ostracized the colored voter, which has been carried so far that the colored voters of Arkansas put out their own ticket in the election of 1920. Take the lynching record of Arkansas—to say nothing of Texas (1922 winner of the mobocratic diem), Georgia (runnerup in the lynching league of 1922 and hardest hit by the exodus), Alabama (where mobs sought to intimidate and frighten the federal government because colored men and women were to be placed at a colored hospital for colored veterans of the world war), Florida, Mississippi (always a formidable factor in the lynching league of America, and whose fields are barren, destitute and insecure), South Carolina and other Southern states—and one of the reasons for the exodus is readily apparent. Every effort to check the exodus has met with dismal failure, because the causes are deep-seated, fundamental and far-reaching and only the Southern white man can stop this migration; but to do this he must adopt new methods and deal with what is commonly called the "new Negro." Several cities and states in the South have passed legislation to stop the exodus, but all these efforts have simply served to increase and stimulate rather than diminish and discourage the Northern movement of colored people. checking not stand the race really be tion and As usu stance an parlance, When in Houston know what living and bness at the Before Goodson lice depar could not a favor to Since oed and e prisonerions comments The Southern white man is not as foolish as he appears to be on the causes for the migration, and he knows, deep down in his heart, that the black man does not get justice and a fair and square deal in the Southland; but, instead of trying to change these conditions and make the South so pleasant, congenial and civilized that colored people will not desert it for other sections, the average man of this section is perfect willing to "pass the buck" to somebody else and let it go at that. Some of them remind us of an ostrich. This old bird buries his head in the sand and because he can not see, he figures that you can not see him, yet all the time he is leaving all of his body exposed to view and is an easy target for his pursuer. The South faces a condition and not a more theory and to bury its head in the sand of custom, traditions and moral cowardiness does not remove the evil nor alter the existing conditions, against which the colored people are rebelling and revolving by migrating to more civilized, tolerant and human climes. The South and the SOUTH ONLY is responsible for this hegira and ONLY THEN can be it. Heroetow, the South has always handled the black man by and with force, durus, violence, disfranchisement, discrimination, jim-crowism and divers other forms of injustices and inequalities, and if the black man protested or objected to the procedure, he was either lynched, chased out of the community or classed as either a "radical" or "crazy." In other words, the Dred Scott decision of ante-bellum days—"The Negro has no rights that a white man is bound to respect"—has been actuing the South in its dealing with the colored race since emancipation, and, since the colored man believes, ye know, that he has certain constitutional and inalienable rights and prerogatives that all men are bound to respect and accord him, if he can not get them in Dixie, then he will go to the North Pole, if need be, in quest of those God-given and inrepensable rights and privileges. Climatic conditions are no longer a barrier nor obstacle; for most of these Southern migrants will tell you right off the reel that we would much rather freeze to death in the North than be freed by the South by some hagry and howling mobs of American Huns." Is it possible that Remmel, like so many of our white folks in the South, does not know that these deplorable, damnable and diabolical conditions exist right in his own state? Has this national committeeman ever heard anything about this modern species of republicanism, known as "Bly-whiteism"? Why does Remmel's own state COUNT IN all colored people for representation purposes in the congress of the republic and then COUNT OUT these selfsame people at the polls on election day? Why does his state, like other Southern states, nullify the constitutional amendments guaranteeing to all citizens, "liberty, life and pursuit of happiness," and by doing so, hurt defiance in the face of the national government? If such a commission were created, where would Coolidge and Remmel find the "representative Negroes" to place on this exodus-stopping and migration-checking commission who could function and deliver 100 per cent goods? Why would this white Southern politician try to burden the colored race with a situation and task his own race can not handle nor cope with successfully, though they write the laws, enforce and administer them and hold absolute and unchallenged authority in all affairs and matters of this section? We wonder how Brother Remmel got that way? Who tampered in what? Who put that "hang in his car"? Where did he get such a bright and brilliant "thought?" (We fear he has another "thought" coming or going, one) In 1920 the late President Hirding was asked to appoint an inter-racial commission to "study lynching" in this country, and report its findings to the country; but when the colored press held down a box barrage against such a commission, the idea died abnormally. No kind of commission is needed to "study lynching" and no commission conceived by the brains of men can stop the exodus of colored people—not as long as other sections seek their labor and the South persists in mistreating and according the colored brother a raw and dirty deal on all turns. Here are some of the causes of the migration, Committeeman Remmel and President Coolidge: Lynch law, disfranchisement, segregation, rotten and rank "jim-crow" railroad accommodations, poor schools and inadequate facilities, low wages for farm labor, poor housing conditions, both rural and urban; inequality in the enforcement of the law and the inquisitions "fee system," double standard of citizenship—me for white citizens and another for colored people ("diggers"); and many other abortions of justice. If a commission of "representative Negroes" can change these Southern conditions, then they stand a possible chance at least SOUTH'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER checking this exodus; but, since even "representative Negroes" do not stand any better chance than the riff-raff and hoi pololi of the race (and, in many instances not as good a chance), it would really be interesting to see such a "commission" trying to function and "hit on all six cylinders." As usual, the suggestion of Remmel dodges and eludes the substance and grabs at and tries to catch the shadow; and, in street parlance, "this ain't got 'em!" Selah! CHIEF GOODSON AND "RED TAPE." When Mayor Holcombe appointed Chief Goodson head of the Houston police department, the colored citizens were anxious to know where the new police chief stood on police officers assaulting and beating up colored prisoners and citizens who have business at the police station from time to time. Before the ink was dry giving him his new assignment, Chief Goodson issued an edict banning brutality and violence in the police department and went so far as to state that any officer, who could not live up to the rules laid down by the chief, would do him a favor to turn in his badge and uniform. Since other local chiefs, in the main, had both condoned, tolerated and encouraged brutality and inhuman treatment of colored prisoners and citizens, Chief Goodson's edict was discussed and commented on at length by numbers of colored citizens. Under former police department heads, if a police officer exceeded his authority and savagely and murderously assaulted a colored prisoner or citizen, there was a lot of "red tape" and "passing of the buck." If complaint were made of such brutal and barricant treatment to the chief, he would disclaim jurisdiction and authority to even reprimand the officer, advising the complainant to take the matter up with the mayor. When the matter was presented to the mayor, they would invariably "pass the buck" to some commissioner, city manager or civil service commission, and then this last named body would simply "pass the buck" back to the mayor or chief, and nothing was ever accomplished in breaking up such depredations and atrocities, and instead of lessening and minimizing the practice, it only served to make the officers bolder and more brutal in their treatment to persons under arrest or at the police station on business. But, judging from a recent suspension of a city police officer by Chief Goodson for assaulting a colored citizen on a local street car, the superintendent of police has thrown "red tape" and "passing the buck" to the four winds and is beginning to function like any chief of police ought to do under such circumstances. The Informer does not commend the chief merely because the victim of the officer's fury and attack was a member of the colored race, but because it is a long step in the right direction and is one of the most feasible and logical ways to put an end to brutality and unnecessary force and violence by police officers. Police officers should remember that they are servants of all the people and not lords, tyrants, czars and hard-boiled bosses, and that the people have some rights that even police officers have a right to respect. We conduct schools for training practically all public servants excepting our police officers, and they are the most prolific source of trouble in most Southern communities. They do not know where their rights end and the prisoner's or citizen's rights begin, and, what is worse, most of them seem to care less. A few convictions, suspensions and demotions will make police officers think several times before being so handy with the club and so fast with the trigger; and Chief Goodson deserves to be complimented for having the backbone and stamina to do his holden duty in the face of existing conditions and customary "red tape" and "passing the buck." "NEGRO TRADE WEEK" OCTOBER 15-20. The Houston Colored Commercial Club will sponsor a "Trade With Negro Week," beginning Sunday, October 14, and ending Saturday night, October 20. The week, as planned, calls for addresses in the various colored churches on Sunday, October 14, by members of the local organization, with the pastors and ministers stressing the importance of our people patronizing the business and professional men of the city. Beginning Monday and ending Saturday night, every colored person in the city is asked to purchase some article from some colored business man, and thereby in building up and developing our own enterprises and business concerns. Local merchants and business men of color are asked to cooperate with the Colored Commercial Club in making this week a bowling success, both by advertising their wares and putting on special indications to encourage and stimulate our people in buying nothing from these race business men during Negro Trade Week. The club is sponsoring this week with the express purpose and object of educating our people up to the importance and necessity of trading with our own people whenever and wherever practicable and it is hoped that our people will join hands and help put over the week in grand style. Our business and professional people have been sleeping on their rights – virtually asleep at the post—and this event is staged with a view of waking them up and stimulating their businesses. In sponsoring and promoting this Negro Trade Week, the Houston Colored Commercial Club is endeavoring to put over a program that should appeal to and elicit the whole-souled and unstinted support and co-operation of both seller and buyer. The Informer hopes that we, as a people, will take due cognizance of this special week and all of us work together to make more solid and permanent our own business concerns and commercial institutions. For if our business and professional men and women are to make good and become real factors in the commercial community, it must be accomplished, largely through the support and patronage of our own people. If the business and permanent community will not hard by the Colored Commercial Club and help to make that organization the potent factor that it should and must be in the community, it will not be long before they can see visible returns on their investments and sacrifices. Let's all contribute our bit to make Negro Trade Week a real business. We hereby practice the doctrine of self-help and self-immuability. ```markdown ``` I's bin wund'rin' what a queer wurl dis wood be ef awl de wimmen fakes shood suddenly 'side ter pull ag an' sail erway ter sum uther plannit an' leave us mens hear by ourselves.

WILEY COLLEGE BEGINS THE YEAR A US PICIOUSLY WILEY COLLEGE BEGINS THE YEAR A US PICIOUSLY Special to The Informer. Marshall, Texas. — Wiley College opened its fiftieth regular session Wednesday, September 19, with the largest initial enrollment it has ever had. President Dogan, who has presided at twenty-eight similar occasions here at this institution, remarked about the fine interest shown in education by the way students are coming at the very beginning of the school. Specialists that thought they from all over the state and from Louisiana, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Mississippi. Wiley has endeavored to maintain such progressive educational standards as would commend it to the favorable consideration not only of the educational leaders but to prospective students seeking to enter a college of first class standing. It is no longer the solo objective of institutions of higher learning to educate or train young people in the forefront of a day. The item for a life of usefulness in the communities where they reside. Moreover, Wiley is attempting to allay somewhat that spirit of restlessness so manifest among Negroes by pointing out the fact that the desire and purpose of the race is to see its condition improved and that no condition can be improved by running away from it. Students are taught to stay with a problem until they have worked it out satisfactorily rather than be elsewhere seeking something less difficult. Wiley's greatest need at present is the ability to place care of the children in mission. It would be a safe prediction to say that the registration this year will be successful, since we seen a week of others come in. The new teachers are falling in love with the students and it looks as though this is going to be a success in all phases of the school's education. The construction work on new chapel presiding nicely. Negotiations for a new way. Occupancy of the building will reduce the relocation situation from the old school to more classroom space. The new departments of religious education, history, and banking are beginning to take on real responsibilities. The institutions of religious and physical education, it is expected that the problem will be solved. Athletics is receiving some thoughtful attention. Once the institute is instituted, the school will receive a game. The following week will be college here for the opening of the new campus. The state that the woods are full of willows for the scape of the Wiley Walters campus and the people and White aggregation this season is hopeful of grafting results from the scapes of the buildings, but feels the athletic world, so far as colored students in Texas are concerned, coarse Hair BEAUTIFUL.

The fourth wonder of the world was the Temple of Diana, at Ephesus, built in the 19th century, and the first of the first before common and destroyed by the Goths in 262 A. D. This magnificent building became a sort of museum for the reception of objects of art, and eventually a place of sanctuary for criminals and fugitives, who could not be harmed while under the protection of Diana. Even men with fresh blood on their hands were safe within its pagan walls. 23—Who is the greatest Negro scientist? More than one hundred varieties of products from peanuts, ranging from the purest of milks for the sick room to ink, useful for writing, and sketching, have been discovered by Prof. G. W. Carver of Tuskegee Institute. He has demonstrated many of his experiments before the members of the national always and have been at Washington. Prof. Carver is 63 years old, and the son of ex-slaves. He was born in Diamond, Mo., and his education began at the age of 15 years. His high school training was received in Minneapolis. He is a graduate of the dows Agricultural College, with the degree of A. B. and A. M. and was a student for six years of former Secretary of Agriculture Wilson. 24—Who was Toussaint L'Ouverture? Toussaint L'Ouverture, of Haiti, was a slave and the son of slaves, yet in 1792, when his country was invaded by British and Spanish armies, he showed all the qualities of a remarkable leader. His natural force of intellect and high character lent him an influence to arouse his countrymen to drive out the invaders, and under his generalship this was accomplished. For some years Toussaint governed Haiti in the name of France, displaying extraordinary political genius comparable with that of the greatest statesmen of history. Order, peace and prosperity were restored to a land that had been blackened with rums and stained with blood. In 1801 he did in Haiti what Napoleon had done in France—set aside a republic. But, Nausoleon, unwilling to be imitated by a black, dispatched an army to arrest Toussaint, and restore slavery. The valient Haitians beat army after army and finally, by treacherous means, Toussaint was lured into the hands of the French commander. He was sent a captive to France, and after the most inhuman treatment, by orders of Nausoleon, died in a dungeon in 1808. Leaderless Haiti, however, fought for independence, and won.

For time he could not observe any umpire, but at last he spiked him in the grandstand among the spectators. "Great gum, man!" the umpire said to the active. "What's the umpire doing up in the grandstand?" "Well," the native explained, the spectators used to accuse him of being too active. He allowed that if the folks up in the grandstand could see him better go up there to do his umpirin."—Beverlybody's Magazine. INTERESTING SPORT NOTES Perhaps the husband who blames women's club for wrecking his home would give a golf. Walter Stewart of Birmingham, it is said, was a part of the deal by which Detroit gets A1 Wingo. The Flippin may be a little loose in their banking methods but they haven't tried to promote any $300,000 price fight. The Pittsburgh Nationals have purchased the Minnesota star pitcher of the Nashville Southern association. The only southpaw catcher in organized baseball is the beat of the Mint club of the North Dakota league. He is Andy Brandt. Bedding field brilliantly, McClenan is hitting and running bases better than the North Dakota garden in the American league. Fifty-Cheek Golf Course received by St. Paul to shift back to De Moines, objected and would not report. As a result he was suspended. The New York Giants announced the purchase of Moses Soson, first owner of the Hutchinson (Kn.) club of the Southwestern league. **club** Chuck Evans has won the national golf title twice, the Western open once, the Western aneurysm eight once and the North and South ones. **club** This interesting note comes from the august 19th ball of California: The Freesoft club of the Western Valley league releases Forrest Cady and signs Orcan Stange to take his place. **club** The Salt Lake club has added a player, Art Kintzer, a southwash who has made a good record picking for the "Pvo team in the Independent Central Club league.** The Portland club picked up Chet Williams while Tou Daly is out with a bronze or something. Thomas had spent part of the season putting on the mask and then for the Oakland club. **club** New Golfing Phenom H. B. Sinclair, twenty-three-year-old Australian amateur golfer, have attracted international prominence. Playing the game only a little more than a year, he came third in the amateur title of New South Wales. Johnny Weissmuller, aquatic fish, who has been in retirement for a few months because of a lovely heart valve, appeared for the first time in the East End of London. Weissmuller made the 100-year free-style match in 54 23. English critics of American sport have always based their criticisms on the grounds that Americans take their sport seriously and the rest of it, and that they are not getting the fun out of it that sport should have. The English author, the English author, in his interesting book on penguin, *Knuckles and Gloves*, seas forth the thing in another light and in words that it is important to think in a very agit fashion. "But an amateur in sport still occupies an important occupation in our own sake," he writes. "He love it so much that he will deepen his passion, be proficient, and is prepared to undergo serious hardship in its pursuit." Critics of the seriousness with which Americans take their sport lose sight of the fact that they still have fun out of it, probably more than they did. They lose sight of the fact that perhaps even greater pleasure lies in doing the sport as well as it can be done by the person making the attempt. Connie Mack Didn't Try Out Barrett Long Enough Connie, Mack, of the old wizard at changing ball players into stars in new games, didn't try out Bill Barrett long enough. "Bibbostone" Bill's seminal batting and outfielder with the White Sox was a big part of the game, but didn't stick to it long enough, come to the A's from the New England赛前-spec in 1921 as a pitcher. Connie sent him to Earl Mack's Moline Three1 team for a season and decided not to play. But for his batting and all-round baseball ability, Connie switched him to shortstop. He was carded to the beard by the A's, but the ground hit him in the eye at the Eagle Pass training camp. That held bobbing him inside him ground him out, so he decided he wasn't any infielder and released him. Hitting Merely Matter of Nerve, Says Wheat Hitting depends entirely on a player's nerve, in the opinion of Zack Brooklyn. The Brooklyn National league club. "A player who lacks courage always can be found well down in the basement, but they are best hitters, like Ruth, Cobb, Speaker, Hornell, Hallmann and Roach, both are nery and confident. They know themselves out of a hating slump. "When I fall to hit I know I am doing something wrong at the plate and I can't see where I am. There isn't anything the matter with the hat, the ball or the ampire. It is my own fast and no one can make me do it. I can't even erode old Man wheat himself." "Highest Paid Batboy" in history of Dearborn A real star in Howard Preguel. Preguel, who served as a bat boy part of the season, is regarded as one of the greatest players in the majors in St. Louis in years. He is only twenty years old. His hitting has been timely, and his defensive has been described as spectacular. He was born at Oyston, O. and attended college. He was turned over to the Syracuse International, but was recalled late in season. Not being heard, he was referred to the hats and was referred to as the "highest paid bat-boy" in baseball. This season he has been placed regular season. John Lavan by illness. Sam Hale of Athletics The prize hour of recent date was pulled by Sam Hale of the Athletics in New York. 7. Paul Costner, the Notre Dame recruit, was pitching for the Brew. With the win, he went wild without a wild pitch. McGowan started a tour of the hues. But Sam Hale, siting near the Athletics' bench, had a chance to hit it. Ray Schultz, Eddie Collins, alive to the situation, came in and called interference by Hale. He had the ball and Costner didn't get "credit" for a wild pitch. McGowan would have had his dug out. Wholesale and Retail CHARCOAL G. D.
