Scott of Howard he passage with reference to the Negro was the spokesman let it be known that in the thinking "encouraged," the president very definitely includes citizens without any distinction. He referred to the industrial opportunities, specifically, and likewise to measurements, and law enforcement. President Coolidge visualizes all Americans, as chief executive, but in his own words, "Colored America is one of patient, measured, caution, to a degree, sympathetic, to a degree, open on state issues." This writer observes him from many interviews, and hearing him talk with officials on state issues in "opportunity" for the Negro, but certainly not very far ahead of curricula. He is willing to accuse, but seldom indicted to initiate. Thus, colored Americans very well knows it, but will not alter his conservative New England course.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1926 SCHOOL BOARD AND "NIGGER" FOLK SONGS! The feature of the memorial program was the eulogy by Bill H. P. Carter, the full text of which follows: The Informer has been besieged with complaints and protests from colored citizens of Houston, who resent the attempted humor in a news story appearing in a local daily sheet, last Tuesday, concerning the colored chorus at the Jack Yates Colored High, directed and trained by Prof. J. Will Jones, a nationally recognized musician and musical authority. This anti-Negro publication, which always goes out of its way to poke fun at, ridicule and caricature the colored race (thereby playing to the riffraff and hi poliol of the white race), stated that Jones had "orders" to only teach the "young Negroes to sing the old favorites in the old-fashioned way", and added that E. E. Oberholzer declared that this course is proving popular. Concerning a visit of the school board and its head to Yates High last Monday and the singing of the students, this daily sheet hurried the following insult at the colored citizens and its large number of colored readers: "These white folks have come down to hear you niggers sing; git on that platform and sing," and they did as their leader (meaning either Prof. Jones or Principal James). If no reporter of this white afternoon daily was present at Yates High on this occasion to "cover" this singing, then some member of the school board or the superintendent of the public schools undoubtedly gave this newspaper this ridiculous and scandalous "news story," which cast such a unsavory and distasteful reflection and asperation upon the intelligent colored citizens of Houston; and these citizens are incensed that such a base statement and false representation of the best in their race should be published in any newspaper as a deformity in the character of the students in general and Prof. Jones, Principal James D. Ryan. Yates faculty and students in particular. Both Jones and Ryan are educated, cultured, high-class Christian citizens and gentlemen. Prof. Jones is a recognized musical leader of no mediocre ability (having served as dean of the college and, when any newspaper or individual, black or white, puts such words and sentiments in his mouth, that paper or person is not only making an amateurish attempt to be funny, but it or he is making an "ass" of itself or himself, and proving itself or himself to be a charitable member of the Anxious Association, who accuse him of employing ante-below language and cutting such capers just to amuse "de white fokes" and show up his own student body and race! Negro takes unwanted pride in the singing and preservation of his folk songs and Dixie melodies, but he does not like the idea of singing them, even to white school boards and superintendents of public schools, just to be made the butt of some cub reporter or school official who endevors to substitute wit for brains. The Houston school board or superintendent of public schools does not openly disavow and repudiate any connection with, or responsibility for this pseudo-humorous "news item," then the only honorable course for Prof. Jones to pursue is to resign his post at once; and in such action he (Prof. Jones) will be backed by every free-thinking, unfettered, untrammelled, forward-looking citizen in Houston, Texas, the South and the nation. That's that! It was not so with our deceased and fallen brethren, and we had seconded it to accept both victory and defeat. We had seconded it to accept both victory and defeat and came to accept our rules and regulations without dissension. One of our from their line that they believed in was that they should be to a higher degree by the words of Longinus. Furthermore, do boards of education and public-school superintendents merely visit colored schools to hear "nigger songs" sung and acted by the colored children? If the Houston board of education has not seen the wisdom or necessity of placing certain limitations and restrictions upon the type and class of music to be taught the white children in the school system, the board arrogate unto itself the authority to prescribe and outline a certain brand of "im-crow" music for colored children? For the test of the heart is trouble, And it always comes with the years. And the smile that is worth the homage of worth. We have no particular objection to singing Negro folk songs, jubilees, spirituals and plantation melodies (for our people are the only singers in the world who can really sing these songs), but we hold to the belief that our voices are free and our "personal property," and that no man or set of men have any right to sing in the school system, even a school board or titlehead of the public school system. in the smile that will shine through "tears." I realize that there are in this city many organizations that are right concession of our organization, but they are not found in any other similar organization of that kind that makes us love to be in them. I did not fully agree with all the one I found that made me love to be in them, but not on business and pro-community that made me love to be in them. I find expression in friendship. I find life in friendship. Let us as its try to ask for that kind of expression in friendship. Let us as its try to ask for that kind of expression in friendship. The Informer, speaking for the colored citizens of Houston and the patrons of the colored public schools, objects strenuously and viciously to any iron-clad edict, even from the school board, that forces colored public school children to sing only one class of music; if the board persists in this position, then it were not the local public department recently inaugurated in the local public schools. With "jim-crow" public school buildings, "jim-crow" street cars and buses, "jim-crow" railroad accommodations, "jim-crow" livestock facilities, "jim-crow" practices and institutions, we should balk and call a halt when it comes to "jim-crow" music in the public schools of Houa- ALPHONSE WILLIAMS, Shoe Basketball coach at Ubucity's 315 Main Street, says "Parents, Santa Claus has again established his headquarters at Busucity, and you should just behold the wonderful assortment of shoes this favorite of the kiddo has brought to Buckley's.
