LOUIS WOMAN SEEKS COURT AID TO BREAK RULING ST. LOUIS WOMAN SEEKS COURT AID TO BREAK RULING St. Louis, Mo.—(ANP) - Circuit Judge Mose M Hartman, last Tuesday, took under advertisement to set up a board of the Negro race from buying property fronting on Finney Avenue, between the block between Krum and Spring avenues. The action was brought by Mrs. Emily E. Ennis, the owner of the interest in the property of her late husband, George Pickel, at 3738 Flint Drive, and other, the officers of a property owner's association responsible for the restrictions and the officers of the trustees under the restrictive agreement. The restrictions were made effective in February, 1924, after property owners in the block had signed an agreement with our people to work on the period of womanhood through the Pickel woman was one of the signatures she now claims that the agreement was signed. The plaintiffs in the character of the neighborhood. It is also maintained by the plaintiffs that she was understood it was not to be placed on record until the signatures of the plaintiffs between Spring and Vandenberg avenues were obtained. Without having done this, they complain the agreement was rewritten. Big Profit Off Negroes It was brought out by the plaintiffs that their property under the restricctions is more than double that price it can be to colored people. The defense argues that Nigroes will demand prices for the property in question; but imists that the restrictions are legal and binding on the property to prevent the plaintiffs from selling the property to the Nigroes. The plaintiffs three years ago to prevent our group from buying property in the west-end section of this city, many of them who were in the foreground, have been molested frequently. In several instances their Louisville Blacks Stage Post-Election Disorders; Wreckage Covered City Louisville Blacks Stage Post-Election Disorders; Wreckage Covered City Louisville, Ky.—(ANP)—Louisville citizens have been in the midst of one of the most biter elections ever held in this city. The election was made bitter because of the fact that a group of Negro citizens, including "Fighting" Bill Warley, editor of the Louisville News, were leading the fight. During the last days there were campaign addresses, newspaper articles written and every political trick resorted to. The Democrats, in an effort to win out, locked up our group on trumped charges a few days previous to the election, hiding many of them in the jail to prevent them from voting. Some were given sentences in the workhouse, while others were hidden away in suburban jails. The judge of the criminal court issued an order freeing all of the prisoners. The Democrats became desperate and beat up Republican voters and ex-officers. In spite of this, the Republicans carried the city and state by a large majority. On the eve of the election a crowd of half-grown boys and men, armed to the teeth with knives and pistols, wrecked several business establishments of those who voted and supported the Democratic ticket. Included in the number wrecked was the newspaper plant owned by William Warley, editor of the Louisville News, who made a hard fight against the Republican party. Last week the News was not issued on account of the inconvenience.

The election has almost wrecked the Democratic party in Louisville. Many of the police officers, including two deputy sheriffs, were arrested before the criminal court on serious charges. These judgements include captains, lieutenants, sergeants and other officers made to reach the persons higher up. "Guerrero at once set about improving the condition of the masses compelled to breed.

Dickson Exposes Baptist "Ring" Gilmer Minister Labels Boone Regime Grafters PAGE TWO Editor Houston Informer: (Continued from last week.) Rev. Boone, it is alleged, stated Sunday night at macedonia Church (the Sunday night three days before the opening of the convention) to Macedonia members these words: "I am president. I am to appoint the committee on enrollment. I beat the committee on education. I beat at St Louis when Rev. L. K. Williams was elected, and certainly I will appoint the committee; will put who I declare the Rev. E. Arlington Wilson elected president. I don't care what they do, and I don't care how they are treated. I don't care. I will put him in." The church cheered him, which is very natural. Let us see if that is true. When the time came for the election of officiating presidents, the retiring president, thinking that he was honest, and allowing him to preside during the election of officers, they were making a mistake; that Boone was not going to do right and that he up the road. I said we had given Rev. Boone $300 as a token of reapprehension. I year ago, they had taken from the convention and the big saloon the convention; $800 and $400 for expenses every year for railroad fare, at the same time riding around with an annual pass in his pocket. My brotherhood, "You are making a mistake; but if you thing he is going to do right, not oppose it, not oppose it," the Antioch Baptist Church, the largest and the richest church in Texas among Negroes, a man who was not oppose it, "Brother Dickson, don't oppose it. I want Rev. Boone to have that I said, and I don't oppose it. Dr. Harriott, if you want to tell you something, I have dealt with Boone for 40 years and he will want to do right; but I will sit down at your desk." At this moment the Rev. J. E. Benson brought, through three persons, and tried to have us put in jail. I, your humble servant, met the sheikh and policemen and had invited us up there as a convention and tried to steal the convention from the people; but the majority of the people had outvoted him and he was angry. I said to the sheriff, "Just give us time to ratify our votes." I asked the officers all three of those officers walked in stood on the rostrum and after all of that excitement, I called upon them and we stood. The vote in their presence was 398. People with their badges on voted in the presence of the sheriff and we stood. I said to the officers: "That is what the bosses are mad about." I said to the officers: "We will permit us to qualify this vote in your presence, and as per your request, we get our vote." We house will meet to discuss a vacant lot as so not to be called disturbers." I said further to the sheriff: "We are the convention!" We will meet the children and sisters met on this vacant lot and opened the convention and passed resolutions all of which we will write in a subsequent issue of The Inform. Rev. E. L. Harrison is the president of Missionary and Educational Convention and the author at the proper time. The Rev. E. Arlington Wilson of Dallas is not the president of the Baptist brotherhood of Texas will never unite on him. Another graft-tolerant man will be appointed. Wilson has appointed a man at Mexi and given him plenary power, signed a bill to get $100,000. If row $100,000, and offered this man $20,000 as bonus to get $100,000. If row on $7,000, and cannot meet its obligations with a debt of $60,000, and cannot borrow $100,000? That is outrageous and a disgrace and should be stopped by all means! Rev. Wilson and that man will sell the Baptists! More coming! Respectfully yours, (Signed) W. L. Harrison Gilmer, Texas.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1927 PARROT PROVES CHIEF WITNESS AT TRIAL COURT PARROT PROVES CHIEF WITNESS AT TRIAL COURT Boston, Mass. —(ANP) —A parrot, benned by a gray boulevardie, with a soft Brazilian voice, and who talks three languages, startled spectators and a dignified judge in Municipal Court Thursday morning when the court held the behalf of its owner, William B.

CHICAGO HONORS EIGHTH'S HEROES ARMISTICE DAY Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—One of the most impressive tributes paid on Armistice Day here was the salute fired by five members of the Eighth Regiment at the corner of 58th and Indiana Avenue, at eleven c'clock Friday morning.

The trial opened Friday with Brown the principal witness. In addition to firmly connecting the klan with the whipping, he also identified Harris Williamson and Claude Rogers as two of his assistants.

Charge 2 Officers Attacked Colored Youths In Prison Beaumont, Tex.—(ANP)—Whe n Maurice Greer, a Green youth, was acquitted of murder by the court, his lawyer appointed by the court to defend the boy, declared they would prefer charges against two of his brothers, charged an ant charged with beating him with knotted ropes, previously soaked in salt water, punching him in the chest, and then attempting to effort to him make sign a confession of the crime. His sister, Abraham, were arrested following the murder of Nathan Newman, junkyard proprietor that year when he stolen both confessions, and they had slain Newman for the purpose of robbery. The defense contended that the boys had been beaten by the police, and the victims who made the arrest. Maurice Greer showed evidence which he corroborated the prisoners' story of the attack on him by the officers. The county jailer was among those who corroborated the prisoners' story of the attack on him, and there was no evidence of the defendants' guilt. Abraham Greer will be arraigned in a similar charge.

It is not an attempt to form a new organization. It is a simple, though still forward to ascertain facts. stock. There has been too little of this to meet of meeting. We are so anxious to meet of meeting, we do not have time to find out what the wrongs are. We want more work, we want to be more productive, we do doing and what wages are we receiving? We want to go into business, and what successes are producing at present and how successfully? We want to spread banking and insurance, but what is the condition of our jobs today? We complain of the lack of religious belief, but what are our reasons for not against disfranchisement, but how far are we really disfranchised? We have chances for education have we now? We really condemn "die out" but what the real condition is? We are astonished at Negro crime, we all of these questions, this conference seeks to answer: first, by hearing a documentary report on present conditions, second, by hearing just what organized work is being done to better conform the conference is debating the question of improving the work of existent organizations in making further progress, easily, if any, of further organization. Such a conference is distinctly different. Special Courses At Hampton Inst.;.

PHONES: PRES. 1243-7560 National Agency To Train Masses (Columbian Press Bureau) Washington—The creation of a department of education, with a cabinet officer at its head, has long been the hope of the Republican party, but every attempt to establish this greatly needed governmental agency, through which the illiteracy of certain unfortunate American citizens has been compounded by the Southern Democrat whose continued exploitation of black wage earners would be threatened, they fear, by the introduction of a national educational policy as advocated by the governor. That the federal department of education is badly needed is apparent from the appalling report of the Secretary of the State, including Georgina, where 15 per cent of the total population is illiterate, and 30 per cent of white and colored youths in the schools that "the United States constitution made provision for the Nebraska school system to put on the footing of equality with white men—not even upon that of punisher and convict," and that they were in their limits, they had a right to hold slaves, as they were doing, and constitutional right to interfere. This is the kind of "education" that is being taught the white and colored youths, where objection is made to the teaching, and where 15 per cent of the total population of 10 years of age and over is illiterate, as compared with the educated Indian, Indianigan and Ohio, and 2 per cent in Indiana, states in which the constitution of the United States is properly intertwined with tools to the youth of all nationalities.

PRINCIPAL ATTENDS PARLEY Chicago, Ill.—(ANP) Three days were consumed here by presidents from the 17 Negro land-grant colleges of the country tabulating the work and progress of the colleges in the past, and formulating a program of special service for the future in conferences held in the Chicago City Club and the Congress Building. Subjects for conference discussion took in every phase of the land-grant college activity and the relation of the presidents of these colleges to these various activities and influences inside and outside the colleges. President R. S. Wilkinson of the State Agricultural and Mechanical College of Chicago, South Carolina, is president of the conference of presidents. This conference is accustomed to meeting in the offices of the interior department at Washington, but came to Chicago this year so that their meeting might be synchronized and their program harmonized with that of the National Association of Land-Grant Colleges, white, which was meeting here, and before whose members President John W. Davis, West Virginia Collegiate Institute, made an important addendum to the most Important Contribution of the Land-Grant Colleges." THE ZOE THEATRE The combined plant valuation of the 17 Negro colleges is more than $80,000. The plant valuation is $20,000,000, and each president reporting legislative appropriations made to the work by the various Southern colleges and maintenance, ranging from $250,000 to $750,000. The impression made by the speakers was to the effect of waking up to an appreciation of their responsibility to these colleges, and are just preparing to face that realization. The students and girls the same education given white boys and girls through sufficient appropriations, efficient teachers South Shows New Spirit It was from South Carolina that President Wilkinson reported in legislature's willingness to get a college to offer it, and that President Davis reported the fact of a state college offering a degree of a school catering largely to Negroes the same salary paid to a similar school catering to whites. Curricula in the Negro land-grant college standard high school to A-1 college rating, the latter being held unconditionally by the West Virginia institution of Colleges and Schools. A constant attempt at improvement is being made. Significant Meeting One of the most significant meetings of the conference was held at the University of Chicago, where he given for the presidents. Here the spirit of the educator and the spirit of the businessman represented the men who are training youth to go out in the world to work for the Appomattox Club were largely business and professional men who were making the development of their business are making places for the trained material the business and other institutions are sending out. President John W. Davis, speaking at the conference, stated the static formation of a lower, inertial and ignorant mass and an upper static formation of a higher, inertial and ignorant mass. WILEY PRESIDENT PAYS CITY VISIT Dr. M. W. Dogan, president Wiley College, marshall spent several days in Houston, enroute to the annual meeting of the American Association at Galveston, which is holding this week. At the Island City College, he attended a conference for the quadratic conference, church, which will be held during 1923 Dr. Dogan, for several years, has been the most active of this great church gathering, and his many friends are hoping that this signal honor will be accorded the distinguished educator again at this conference. CORSICANA DOTS THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1927 He stated it as his belief that one of the chief functions of the land-grant institutions is for growing for a middle group of substantial wage earners, the farmers and the landowners, and spending to the toasts of the various presidents, vividly illustrated the "no matter how much you train a man's feet and his head, there is a need cared for," he said President Wilkinson, "knowing as a place of importance and have come to be recognized as the leaders of agricultural science and people. They are the sources of vocational information in our system of education, and contribute scientific data for establishing agricultural and industrial standing." Looking To Land-Grant Colleges "Negroes are coming to look to the land-grant college for assistance and co-operation to their own advantage in the progress. They are contributing in larger measure to the development of the land-grant colleges and are bound to have a favorable influence on all phases of economic life by raising the standard of citizen education, by raising the character, a higher sense of thrift and honesty, and a higher respect for Prairie View Principal Present Y.

The distinctions are largely recognized today as incidental or artificial divisions based on graphical facts. But the superstition about race still fetters the mind of the average man; it is even popularly supposed to be the most important and very important natural bases of the many racial divisions. The conclusion of science that the human race is not a single species of man in the streets nor all of the men in the legislatures. Many still feel that race is a socialological than a natural geography are very essential qualities of men. They do not know that race is more a sociological than a biological than a natural phenomenon. The superstitions about race are among the last great errors of which human "As might be expected, this attitude of mind towards racial differences, allied with the passion of greed, has been a major factor in the threat against human peace, domestic peace and international peace.

Isaiah had a long ministry, and extending through the reign of Johan, Abaz and Hezekiel. For a history of the nation in this time see II Kigua Chapter 20. In 2011 he present the redeemptive purpose of God through the consummation of Messiah's kingdom. Chapter 1 is the great arrangement of the people for their sins. The Moral State of the People (v. 3. 4). 1. Filial ingratitude (v. 2). The universe is summoned to hear the Lord's complaint against Judah and his rebellion against the Lord. 2. Brutal ingratitude (v. 3). The ox and the ass are proverbially stupid, but he hasn't realised how to express his right as sovereign, nor author of merces. 3. Britual evil doers (v. 4). The Britual evil doers in not merely, but in nature and heart were laden with inglity. By heredity they passed their vices from generation to generation. 4. Their Consequent Miseries (v. 50). 5. Their nepotism (v. 5). Chantishment only hardened them. Their afflictions were followed by deeper and more blemishes than in the v. 9. The calamity which befell them extended to all classes. No one was able to minister to their comfort. Desolations in the country (v. 7, 8). Revolts from within and invasions without left their country in disarray. The lawows moral and spiritual decadence. A saved remnant assured (v. 9). God was saved in a remnant man was saved in Israel—a remnant shall be saved in the church. Hl. Formal Worship Reubed (v. 10). Their awful calamities were not due to the neglect of religious rites and ceremonies. They punctuated obviously inappropriate practices in inducing in lignations practices. God does not need sacrifices (v. 11). Worship and service are not for God's benefit, but for that of the worshippers themselves. They are toward formal worship (v. 12-14). The very rites and ceremonies which God ordained for the purpose of helping them disgust and irksome to Him 3. God's refusal (v. 15). Every act of worship while the heart and life are steeped in impatience incites the anger of the Holy One. IV. An Amended Life God's Requirement (v. 15-20) Though the nation had so grievously and so nobly their care was not hopeless. In order to enjoy that mercy there must be: 1. A cleansing. "What cleanse you clean." The washing by water symbolized the cleansing by the blood of the Son of God. 2. "Put away the evil of your doom." There could be no cleansing while continuing in sin. 3. "Cause to do evil." 4. "Learn to do well" (v. 17). One can only cause to do evil by learning to do well. 5. "Seek Judgment." One must not only be upright times, but also be upright times, the wrongdoing of others. Burdens should be removed from the oppressed. Justice should be done to the oppressed and the widows should be befriended. 6. Encouragement to come to God. Though their guilt was great and the judgment which betell them was awful, God's pardoning and cleaning grace were sufficient. 7. Repentance (v. 17). This means that they could only enjoy good on God's terms. 8. Rebellion against God brings ruin. Religion Trusting God with a sincere and open heart, ready to help what He asks, will help him to ready to take it, believing in Him and simply trusting life to Him—that is God.

When the apples were all gathered and the cider was all made, and the yellow pumpkins were rolled in from many a hill in billows of gold, and the corn was husked, and the labors of the saanum were done, and the warm, late autumn sunshine came in dreamy and chilly light, there came over the community a sort of genial deposition of spirit—a sense of something accomplished; and the deacon began to say to the minister, of a Sunday, "I suppose it's about time for the Thanksgiving celebration—Harris Becker Stover." NATION GAVE NO THANKS IN 1776 In November of That Year American Cause Was at Lowest Ebb. There was no Thanksgiving pre-treatment in November, 1776. Congress did, indeed, pass a resolution numbering 107, to allow troops to assemble, but in prayer for deliverance, not of thanksgiving. The American cause seemed at that moment to be weakening. Washington was retreating across New Jersey, Leaving Newark on the 28th of November with an army of 5,000 men. The British, led by the Raritan with scarcely 3,500 starring and half-maked troops. In New York, then in the hands of the Brits, the American invasion which might have been considered a proclamation of thanksgiving for some. It was one of pardonable acts. The invasion of Independence. Twenty-seven hundred accepted. But this only augmented the lilies of those who still stood out for Independence, and in the end possessed and possessions were put. The infant republic, surrounded by foes, for the Indians were rising, and also suffering from the condition which has lately been epidemic in the United States, the news that American representatives had succeeded in getting aid from France in the way of uniforms and pants that did not yet become known to the Washington troops, whose route as they approached the Delaware River had not yet little snow on the ground, which was tinged here and with blood from the feet of the men who were broken in and killed in days that Washington wrote to his brother saying that if every nerve was not strained to recruit a new force, the game was "pretty" whose term of enlistment was expiring. he thought the game was "pretty" and about which those who were faithful to the desperate cause were gathered harmed, however, a hopeful ray for Palin's "lines that try Now Bleached Above Others. In extremity, approaching defeat, that the country which these patriot souls suffered to make independent comes to the aid of the world.

Y. JANITOR TENANT STABBED BY N. Y. JANITOR New York City—(ANP)—Because certain tenants in the building had nugged him about the removal of the garbage, Allan Gill, janitor at an apartment house in the Bronx, stabbed one of the tenants, Henry Anselmi, with a pen knife. Another other tenant in the house was amicable to the plan gratuitating ourselves as a nation and individuals that we have passed another year in "the favor of the Almighty and the light that has smiled on us" (1 Corinthians 1:18). Soilless, the Greek titer of the soil, over 2,000 years ago, who dedicated to "Dementer, lover of when"; a few hundreds of corn from "the burrows of the earth" (1 Corinthians 1:17) an abundant year, inward and deserving another year, by the same favor, to carry back his sickle blunted from his hardships. Yes, but with a consciousness of the obligation which that sufficiency brings and with no thought of taking our ease in the earth or letting it go, our goods in self-inflicted isolation.

When Gill approached him about it, Anselmi became angry and showed his anger by nudging the nosed by a number of tenants in the building. Becoming excited at the man's actions, Anselmi stabbed Anselmi. He was taken to the Lincoln Hospital for treatment, and he was released.

The program was replete with music of the masters, lectures of value to school and citizens, and educational information appropriate and enlightening. Very cultural as well as very inspiring services were served in the fall of 1981, culminating when Rev. Timothy E. Echols, professor of religious education and college preacher, gave an address on the conference. The climax of the observance, however, was in Armintice Day when Dwyer, Frederick Day, and director of the school of education of the University of Texas, spoke in strong points of American education.

There was no talking of a lynching bee, with Benito, the white wouldbe rapist, as the chief attacker! the colored man and women. He disguised of them with dispach. It was further revealed that Magistrate Goodman was arrested in the spring of 1925 in Mansuan, N.J. A woman was arrested for registration card. He forfeited 2,000 boll衣袋, appeared in court, and the ball衣袋 was returned. His car struck and injured a six year old girl whose parents won $1,250 in a suit. Chief Magistrate McAdoo declared he would not tolerate any color lines of woman in which he had jurisdiction. Magistrate Goodman's rebuke is the signal for a general movement among colored citizens asking his removal.

At 10:15 a. m. on the same date, five other cars were loaded at separate pens at the same point. At 10 o'clock the same morning eight additional cars were sent from Laredo, to be considered in a special train at San Antonio. At noon on the following day the train passed Longview Junction and continued to Texarkana, where they arrived at 4:00 p. m. the same day, there being unloaded and fed, as well as given a rest in the pens. At 12:21 a. m. Nov. 13, they were again on their way and arrived at St. Louis at 4:04 p. m. the same time to running time of a few minutes over 50 hours.

NO MAN IS ENTITLED TO MORE AND NO MAN SHOULD RECEIVE LESS—ROOSEVELT HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1927 SAN ANTONIO'S IDOL FALLS ASLEEP The death of John W. Tobin, for nearly a quarter of a century one of the leading political figures of Bexar County and San Antonio, which occurred in the Alamo City several days ago, removed from the public arena one of the most picturesque and dearly beloved municipal chief executives who has ever graced the mayoralty office in any Texas city. Before his elevation to the office of mayor of his native city, Mr. Tobin served many years as sheriff of Bexar County and won the sobriquet of "cumless sheriff," due to the fact that he never used a gun to arrest and bring in criminals, it mattered not how desperate the criminals were. Though he had political foes (and any man in public life) who worth the salt that goes into his bread will incur the emmity and contumely of some), none could gainayse the fact that no man in San Antonio was more intensely interested in his city, its expansion, expansion and development; and no resident of the state had a greater love for the Lone Star commonwealth than the late Mayor Tobin. The peculiar of the street, he was a "square shooter," and held to the belief that a man's citizenship was determined by his character and contributions to his community, state and social family rather than by his color, creed or caste. Because he played the game manly and courageously; because of his moral fortitude and civic pride, Mayor Tobin became the idol of thousands of residents of San Antonio, and he was never defeated chasing him. He was a man of strong stubborn stubborn and stiff opposition was mustered and concentrated against him on more than one occasion. Though a firm officer and conscientious public official, Mayor Tobin was kind, modest, approachable and possessed the happy faculty of never forgetting nor forsaking a friend, regardless of said friend's color, creed or class. Though they did not agree with all his policies, and were not always in agreement with official actions, the colored citizens of San Antonio believed in Mayor Tobin, and he reciprocated by believing in them and giving more civic recognition and official consideration than accorded the grace by any other Texas mayor; and even at his public funeral service at the city auditorium (one of the many Tobin achievements) in San Antonio, colored citizens had a part in the last sad raids held over this period. Legend has it that three men sought to leave their names inscribed where succeeding generations would know of their greatness and temperance, and revere both their name and memory. The first man wrote his name in large letters upon the sand, and there it remained until the first hard rain, when the water completely obliterated his name upon a massive stone, which had stood the onslaughts of the natural elements and forces for many decades; but ere long his name fell a victim to time's corroding influences, and it was no more. The third man wrote his name upon the hearts of his fellowmen by deeds of service—by living a full life—and long after his earthly career had ceased and his body had decomposed and returned to earth. Because he wrote it indelibly upon the tablets of men's hearts. The late Mayor John W. Tobin of San Antonio, while leaving many material monuments to enshrine his memory and while he was a leader of the city, he was also a many years as a tribute to his great constructive ability and his genius of leadership, his greatest and most lasting monument has been erected within the hearts of those he served through his life and none shall rise to dim its lustre nor to efface his greatness. Requiescat in pace! RECENT RESULTS SHOW BALLOT'S POWER! In the autumn elections held in several states and cities recently, the Negro voters played no small part not only in deciding some of the issues, electing some of the public officials and maintaining others in private life, but demonstrated in an unmistakable manner that the American voter is sovereign; that only by concerted political action can the Negro ever hope to do any collective bargaining, politically speaking. Newspaper dispatches from Louisville, Kentucky, where a Republican mayoralty candidate defeated his Democratic opponent, who was seeking reelection to the municipal post, credited the losing candidate's manager with saying: "It (the election) was very close. It is a question whether we can overcome 30,000 Negroes." The Republican gubernatorial candidate in the Blue Grass State also defeated his Democratic opponent, with something like a 8,000 to 10,000 majority; and again the victory of the Republican nominee was credited to the heavy Negro vote in Kentucky. The Negro population in Kentucky (Harlem) of any American city two Negroes are elected to the city council of America's largest municipality, one of the candidates defeating a white opponent and the other winning over a Negro Democrat, who was a candidate for reelection to the aldermanic position. Three Negroes were elected to the city council in Cleveland, Ohio. These flattering results are encouraging signs and should stimulate Negroes in other sections of the country to greater political activity. Songs of lamentation and resolutions have never won any political battle, nor made it possible for those engaging in such practice to constitute a larger share of their constitutional and immutable rights. With the outlawing and invalidating of the infamous and inquisitive "white man's primary" statue, which excluded and barred Negroes from participation in Democratic primary elections in Texas heretofore, the Negroes of Texas will be recurrent targets of the Republican Party's campaign and organize their forces for a definite and far-reaching course of both partisan action and political activity. The Houston Informer America's Greatest Weekly Newspaper Woodrow Wilson ran for the first time on a platform which declared for the party exigencies required his renomination, he remained absoluteness, and he was thus to limitation of tenure and was trumpetly renominated and renominated again, with moral consistency. Mr. Coolidge might have done the same thing and would have done it without the golden. This he doubled would have done if he had the slightest hesitation. In his case the limitationcession. In his case the limitationcession. He cannot renominate his reputation, but reliously compromising his reputation for upright and down-straight decision. If some impending national crisis should arise, patriotic consideration must be taken in all important committees. It must be Abraham Lincoln's previous principles might have been, the posture he took in the war, to accept a second nomination. He could not have declined without shirking his duty, and was in the nation at the time of another son who could serve the nation in the hour of its vital needs so well as the president, and he had benefited his health and had been able to impress upon the American people the friendship of the League of Nations, but for the League of Nations, he have been nominated and elected for a third term in 1920. Precedent and tradition have been imposed on paper of face of impending nation- al emergency. But no such emergency seems now in sight. He was the first to disavow of purpose and the different interpretations placed upon his unusual phraseology. The Republican politician was also the first to bepected his renomination. Favorite sons are springing up here andyoning with the field until the psychological moment arrives for the focusing upon him as the only available calculated answer. Thus the race stands distraught between the two great parties that have hated each other for years, hopes. There seems to be no relief in sight until the emergence of some new party, which is supposed to harness energy which inspired the grand old party in the days of its pristine virtue. The new party was on human freedom, the new emphasis will be on economic equality and human rights. Roosevelt inaugurated war but the grand old party was not so disorganized. It was disrupted by even so dynamic personality. Senator LaLacotte vetoed a bill that would elect a republican party is the most likely possibility except the Roman Catholic Church. Even the mighty Roosevelt apologized to a historic apology of 1912. LaLacotte then leading an impotent revolt. The Western farmers are impotent or not. The Republicans are so great an agency as the all-powerful Republican machine. Even New Yorkers In the meanwhile the great more issues of law against laxnessness and drunkardiness; the right of agricultural duty; the duty of the countryside; must wait for some third party to organize their moral potency into affective terms. "Him and no one else," he said, "will come in. In the meantime both exiting parties will feel him on soft soil." EVEN IN MEMPHIS By William Pickens (For the Associated Negro Press) The appeal of a white candidate for mayor, on the ground that he was opposing the Memphis mayor that it had failed in Memphis. In Chicago, Mayor Dewey's machine made an anti-Negro issue and in Memphis, Mayor Rowlett Paline's outfit made the same issue. This victory against Negro-haters is to be credited to Bob Church in Memphis, who is said to have himself is to be credited. On the election Paine declared that if Owenton, the Negro supporter, would be a Negro victory, pure and simple, would make Bob Church city jobs as Paline claims is already Allowing for the exaggerations of a politician scrambling for an office, that his defeat was a victory for the Negroes, especially since he insisted that he defeat the Negroes and based his campaign on his "say" reply to a Negro delegation which went to him to ask (the said) help to get him out of the people on the police force and in the fire department, and that the parks be opened to Negroes as to all other citizens who pay to support those who Paine in a passionate appeal to white Memphis exclaimed: "Stop Bob Church with the Negro club with hate." UP-TO-DATE BY MARY CHURCH TERRELL Don't say that the day of miracles has past, for a miracle of modern times is still happening in Memphis. Tenn. A new mayor has been elected in the Bluff City and it is expected that the mayor will hold the balance of power and were, therefore, largely responsible for putting the mayor to work. About 17,000 white people voted in approximately 8,000 colored. The mayor and the two twentie candidates and the colored were practically solid for the man who was elected. So it was given them a square deal. So it was elected to the first choice. When I say it "as easy as rolling off the bus" to put in the power that they wanted, I feel it is my duty to rise and remark that these guys are easy to work with. After all it required a tremendous amount of effort to show many colloquialities, and to better their condition by casting their ballot for the right man, and to induce them to take the time and the money to vote. In the first place, thousands of colored people, who had not been in the army, were urged and helped to do so. And then they were induced to register, and their ballots properly. All this meant a prodigious amount of work for somebody of aggregation of some kind. In the West Tennessee Civic and Political League which for a long time was the state of the state what a weapon of defense the ballot is, if they will only be represented. R. Church, one of the founders of the league and a very active spirit in it, was denounced and condemned and wanted to be re-elected mayor and failed. He paid Mr. Church as great reward for his efforts, and paid by rushing into print to tell the white people of Memphis what great power they had if they did not clip this colored giant's wings by re-electing him, all sorts of disasters would overtake the Negro voters had registered as Democrats to get a better shot at Patine and his Nogro-hating gang and how important for Negroes was the decision against "white primaries," secured through the supreme court last week. The court ruled that Negroes from excluding Negro voters from Democratic primaries. This one gained in Memphis by Bob Church and Negroes and decent whites will do more than anything else to help Negro voters. For certainly no Negro-hater will want to drag the "Negro question" into politics if that issue is going to cause trouble. "Maggie L. Walker— Her Life and Deeds" The pen of W. P. Dabney is at its best in this book of the career and career of a pioneer, pioneer American woman banker and builder of a great fraternal organization. This book is one of the best in this genre, so-called "bibliophiles" are effusions, telling you about everything except those to be exposed. But this book you about your alma mater, later in life, will be exposed with her. In it Dabney's characteristic is at its best. One starts the story before read so effective the tragedies are told with a bwitching charm. Never before read so effective a story of a colored woman, except, perhaps, in Dr. Dabney's sketches. There is no other biography that contains as much inspiration for colored girls as this book in "Haggle L. OPINIONS help having a very high estimate of the sanity and respect for law which the masses of the city people of the city belong to in spite of this effort to stir up strife between the two races nothing serious occurred. The man whom he mistakenly believed belongs to an old and honored family. He has both social position and wealth, and will give them a square deal. If he doesn't they certainly know what they can do when the next election occurs. There is evidence that colored people all over the South are rubbing against the country use their ballots to promote the welfare of the race, which means that the people of a whole a better day will dawn. Why can we not have colored caddies in both West Point and the Navy? We can make a "drive" to get a few fine specimens from our group into both the Navy and the Navy. Every other racial group in the country may be appointed—even the sons of the president. We waged war against us—more easily than the sons of colored people whose parents were from the same racial and property of the United States. A few years ago Senator Bruce of California termed that "appointments to the United States Navy and Military" and politics and made on merit alone, having during my time of office mentions to both the Naval Academy and not as political favors. If appointment could be removed from political hands," he continued, "and yet we still have the Navy and the apartment we could maintain the high est possible standards at the two in I cannot resist the temptation to show how worried people are about the interest which the public ballot, not only in the South, but even in the North. For instance, Newborough was not delivered in several uncompetitive things about Mr. Thompson of Chicago in an address he has just delivered at the University of Mo. He even called Mr. Thompson a few names, as he boiled over indignation. Mr. Baker declared demagogue" who had organized the ignorance of that city in the form of a campaign of books and taken over the municipal When he said that he must have given up not telling the truth, he knew that he was wrong. 400,000 blacks did not vote for Mayor Thompson, and he certainly knew how much colored people in Chicago as intelligent as the most intelligent of citizens and are worthy of respect. The colored people who voted for Mayor Thompson were just as though a man who was broad enough and just enough to act as though he realised that he was as well as white people, and they refused to cast their rallies for a man who was broad enough and just enough to arm them, to say the least. Mayor Thompson will not apologize for any sleepiness in Newton D. Baker said about him and neither will the colored people who undue concern any undue concern. Selah!
