FINAL EDITION VOLUME IX NEGR Congi The Mirror By C. F. RICHARDSON AN INTERESTING EXPERIENCE The conductor of this column had quite an interesting experience last Friday evening and night, when the Coleridge-Taylor Chorale Club of this City, where him scribe is a member and president), appeared in a musical program at the Wharton County house under local management of Prof. W. I. McCann, veteran educator and principal of the Wharton Negro He School. COLORED TEXANS: THE HOUSTON INFORMER Epochal Conference Studied Many Matters Vital To Negro Group Epochal Conference Studied Many Matters Vital To Negro Group Durham, N. C.—(ANP)—The effort to take stock and tabulate facts concerning the status of the Negro with some degree of 'exactness by a conference at Durham was attended with a marked success that astounded visitors and promoters alike. The assemblage of more than two hundred active participants represented a cross-section of the most virile and aggressive characters in every phase of race progress. It was a courageous number who sought and faced facts with the instincts of scientists and good business men and women that they were. Each of the number was a person of personal consequence in some phase of progress. The idea of the Stock-Taking and Fact-Finding Conference was born with President James E. Shepard of the North Carolina College for Negroes, and carried to fruition under a program and on plans laid down by a committee upon which were Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Dr. W. G. Pearson and J. M. Avery. These people, with their associates from almost every country, are responsible for a conference that has established itself as the initial point of a new epoch in American Negro history. Protest Departmental Inequalities At Capital While in no sense a federation of Negro organizations, the conference crystallized the aims of all of our organization to definitely gain the elements that were lacking; ascertained the fields that remained organized and established a foundation for more precise measurement of our growth. Putting the Negro of today under a microscope handled by experts in the fields of business education, labor, agriculture and education, assembly looked him over, discussed his virtues and defects with cold, anger, gaze, what was found was set forth for protest. New York City—Through its secretariat, John Johnson, the National Association for the Amendment of Colored People, 99 Fifth Avenue, has sent President Calvin Coolidge a letter protesting against racial segregation and discrimination in governmental departments at Washington, D. C. The letter follows: "Dear Mr. Bear,— I feel it my duty in behalf of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to call your emblems, which is deeply stirring the sentiment of governmental departments in Washington which is deeply stirring the sentiment of emblems, which is deeply stirring the sentiment of them such stenographic service as is accorded other employees and set them apart in rooms by them. "In one case, that of Punison Bureau of the Department of the Interior, the members of the Department made through officers of the Washington branch of this association procured an abatement of the segregation brought to the attention of the personnel had felt deeply. Mr. Hubbert Work, secretary of the department, was restoring the employees of the Pension Bureau to the location and work assignments they received of the segregation color had been effected.

In the General Land Office, Mr. William Sprye, we are reliably informed, have signed a letter to the department in protest against the segregation and discrimination by color practiced against the employees of the United States government.

Such an act, I am sure, would be among the most significant in the history of your administration. SAYS EDUCATION IS ADVANCING IN DIXIE STATES New Orleans, La.—(AKN)-Sentiment is growing through the South for the education of Negroes, according to B. C. Calcott, president of the Jeanes and Sister funds in an address before the Louisiana Negro Teachers Association which closed in August to B. C. Calcott. The president said that he had been connected with Negro education for the past twenty-five years last week. The proclamation today is stronger than ever. ORPHAN HOME HEAD HERE R. E. M.

JURY ACQUITS WHITE YOUTH OF SLAYING NEGRO Important Bills Affecting Negro, Before Congress Important Bills Affecting Negro, Before Congress New York City—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has called on attention to two bills introduced in the new congress just met in Washington, of vital interest to Negroes. The new bill, a lynching bill, reintroduced in this congress by Representative Leonard C. Lewis, a Democrat, in view of President Coolidge's strong pronouncement on the "foul play" lynching bill. In a recommendation that "the congress should enact a law of legislation it can impose on the Dyer-bill is of especial interest," second bill is introduced by Representative George Holden Tink- BLEASE FEARS BOOMERANG IN SENATE ACTION Washington, D. C., —(ANP) —Gole Blease, United States senator from South Carolina, warned Southerners that elector-elect Smith and Senator-elect Vare, in the United States senate, should harbor to them herself because Negroes are kept from voting. The South Carolina senator, realizes that down South the elections are illegal due to the wholesale disfranchission of Negro citizens and fear that the South will be harmed in the case of Illinois and Pennsylvania might react as a bonerang against them. The South Carolina senator's warning came close on the heels of the rebellion of George Holden Tinkham of Massachusetts, a criminal organization of the "moritical" and gross disfranchission of the Negro in the South. This resolution was filled and passed in 1930 to make a subsequent reapportionment to the census to be taken in 1930 and to make a subsequent reapportionment to the census among states "honest and constitutional Tinkham pointed out that "honest and constitutional government does not exist in the United States today," and declared: "The constitution presents and locations, one mandatory in character and two declaratory in representation and locations, one mandatory in character and two declaratory in representation of Article 1 of the constitution provides that a census shall be taken every ten years and that reapportionment in the lower house of the United States represents the reapportionment of the lower house has occurred since the 1910 census and the house, joining with the representatives from the state of the South and the North whose population during the last eightteen years has vastly increased and proportionately represented." ham of Massachusetts as House Resolution 34, directing a report from the census committee in connection with the proposed congressional representation. This resolution would reduce the representation of the states which disfranchise the Negro. By Meeting National Solons Asked To Enforce All Federal Laws Washington, D. C.—(ANP)—A memorial drafted by William Pickens, was addressed to congress by the American Negro Organization, in session here, urging the enforcement of the constitution of the United States in its entirety and deploring the discrimination of all kinds and in all sections of the country. The memorial was signed by William Pickens, vice-chairman of the conference; Mrs. Mary McLeed Bethune, president of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs and the Bethune-Cookman College; Mrs. Maggie L. Walker, secretary-treasurer, Independent Order of St. Luke, Richmond, Virginia; Miss Nannie Burroughs, Washington, D. C.; Mrs. Ola B. Stokely, Richmond, Virginia; C. R.

The text of the memorial was an artifact hypocrisy, who are resolved to follow: 1. We urge the sustaining of the constitution and the United States and the force of the provisions and laws. No greater thunder could be made by government unless it could be made by the impression that it has power to enforce such laws, to impose such laws, to such laws. Such a policy would to the man of ordinary mind and common sense, mean one of two things, the government has no real power to enforce such laws, the government officials are consum- Rockefeller Aids South African 'Y' With $25,000 Gift Rockefeller Aids South African 'Y' With $25,000 Gift New York City—(ANP)—A gift of $25,000 by John D.

Mr. Rockefeller has for some time been interested in the work of the Y. M. C. A. in South Africa and his gift toward the erection of a building was made after careful study and investigation in the work in Africa be said: "This work has now reached a stage which justified considering the erection of a headquarters building to serve as a center for the training of Negro students for services of the native population." The work in South Africa is being conducted at Shaw University, Raleigh, N. C. under the auspices of the National Association of Black Students in the United States. Mr. Yrgen has been at his post for a number of years and grown steadily and rapidly. The proposed building will be the center for the training of South Africa as well as a social training center for the students of the college located at Alto, Cape Provinces.

The case has created a political force in Virginia, two officers, Commonwealth Attorney George P. Whitley and Sheffield William Holmes Chapman having been defeated for reduction on the ground that they removed a wrongful conviction and thus prevented a threatened lynching. Winnigan is charged with criminal assault and murder of a 14-year old white girl, following his release under bond after having been convicted of outstanding persons. The jury conviction of the Negro is unlawful and his execution is better contested on the ground that he removed a wrongful conviction and thus prevented a outstanding person in the various cities of Virginia, to commit an act of murder being set for January 25, 1988. The case has brought sharp criticism with mental defectives, a white editor declaring, "In so far as the case is professional and extra-legal setting at naught of the recommended acts of killing in an elementary duty both to a class of defectives that are entitled to protection and to the protection of title to protection against them.

Being good followers together, the white men played the violin and the black men played Williams in the same playful fashion. This caused a little scuffle Thursday morning, Lewis was at his home and saw Williams and the other white men coming towards him in danger, being rushed into the house and secured a gun to protect them. In danger, he and Lewis fired, killing Williams. A mob formed immediately, went to the house and fired Lewis, too late. The entire country is bequeathed, and if the Lewis family is caught there may be another lynchman.

Caveness, director of the city heatth department. : This action on the part of the director of health has caused quite a stir in the medical profession and many have expressed their disapproval. The Kansas City Hospital for Negroes is one of the outsanding institutions of the country, and the fact that Negroes were in charge was at all times a souree of pride not on- Jy to'the profession in Kansas, but of the entire nation, In'1924 through the decision of Mayor Albert I. Beach, Negro physicians on the staff of the hospital were promoted from axsist- ants to chiefs of every service. Under the administration of Dr. T. C. Unthank as superintendent, much wffective work was ‘done and the efficiency of the staff is indicated in the Tact that the mor- tality under the Negro physicians was lower than ever before in the forty years existence of the hospital under white chief of steal? and white’ easletants.

THURSDAY NIGHT, DEC. 22, 1927 —By— The Yates Lions, who have dropped only one game this season, will meet the Gobblers in a gridron contest Saturday at Athletic Field; the kick-off taking place at 2:30. The Gobblers are reeling over the state, and, because of their overwhelming and decisive victories expected to give the Lions some real opposition, the squad has been going strong in recent games; although the showing in no home game has been as good as that on foreign gridron. The Gobblers have made the claim that the Lions will strike and hold the stride that has made them a terrestrial force. There is practically no list of injuries now, and it is predicted that those attaining different Llh teams on the gridron before the referee blows the final. The rooters club are putting forth special effort in order to be in shape to boost the boys on to victory, as well as to improve their performance. While the Gobblers have the record in some instances of having trounced their opponents by scores ranging from 10 to 15, they will find some real opposition at the Barr's Field game Saturday after PREACHER'S WIFE CALLED BY DEATH The funeral of Mrs. Lacie Simpson, wife of Rev.

A dogged defense, which was harder than iron when danger threatened, kept the champion Tuskegee elephant in cheek Saturday after a State Normal lacked the scoring power necessary to give them victory, their defensive play was enough to kill hopes of a Tuskegee win, and the local colored school left the field feeling well satisfied with the 0-9 draw. Fighters would crash their way close to the Hornets' goal line only to be stopped by the fighting Normalites. Stevenson failed to shine, and the Normal line must go the glory of the game. The game was really a feathered high school game, but out maintained. Stevenson of Tuskegee were conspicuous figures, but the duels were too close to them. The battle was almost a succession of punts, with the honors of the game lost. The horse which the Hornet quarter let loose were unimpressive, but he found his stride short and he held his own with There were few, if any, spectacular plays in this battle of keeping the other fellow from the door. Seldom did they get away with more accuracy than did the Normal eleven; instead trick planks by Tans and the other players, and on more than one occasion the would-be Tiger runner was downed for a considerable loss by the watchful defender. Flashy Playing In Second Tigers Show Sustained Drive The Tigers showed a .sustained drive in the third quarter, but it was short, after an exchange of balls which left the same as it had been before the kicking began, Tuskegee started a drive that first came in first downs in rapid succession. With Bailey and Stevenon doing most of the carrying the ball went from midfield to the goal line, the locals pulled themselves together and held like a rock. And then Tuskegee pulled one of their few successful forward passes of the game. Stevenon tossed the oval to P. Smith and the latter gained 20 yards before Tigers Held Again FOOTBALL! Cuero Gobblers vs Yates Lions SATURDAY, DEC. 17 Barr's Athletic Field Kick-off 2:30 P. M. ADMISSION: GENERAL . . . 50c Corsicana Wins From Texarkana In Hectic Game Texarkana, Tex.-Ark.—The Jackson High School Bearers of Corcissana, district interholescholastic football winners of North and Central Texas, clashed here last Friday afternoon at Logon Park, with the Texarkana High School Bearers of Corcissana, one of prettiest exhibitions ever witnessed in this section. The Bearers fought valiantly against the natural handicap of playing on foreign soil, coupled with a long, all-night ride; but despite these handicaps, Coach N. H. Pendleton's charges emerged with a victory. A march after the kick-off was a sure bid for a score, when the ball was received by the Bearers and went on to a celebration of the cession of first downs carried to Texarkana's 18-yard line when to Texarkana's 14-yard line of the remaining yardage only. It called back for a man being in motion. The setback coupled with the stunt of running was too great at such a moment. The battle was waged in all fury throughout the second and third quar During the third quarter, and then only, was Texarkana able to get in danger with a terrific tilt for a dangerous threat for a team that was fooled by the over-masterful line of the Bears. In the final quarter, the Bears taken from the field injured, the Bears rallied behind "Little" Ashley and won with sensational rushes through the heavy line of the Buffaloes. White also tightened and proved, then he got mad. Quince was too hot on liking in passes to which the Buffaloes relied, and he was not good enough. Quince was a period of whistle-blew. "Little" Hardee "stayed in there," as usual and was going strong when the final whistle blew. The Bears rose to the heights that can not be "surpassed," white ripped on the 16-yard sprint to the 12-yard line on the 1-3 run to lose the ball on the next down by a fumble. A bad punt by Dunbar and a cross-buck with White carrying the ball on the 16-yard line. Ashford ripped the line for thirteen yards of the distance and a cross-buck with White carrying the ball on the game Corsicana kept the ball in the enemy's territory and punted perimeter. Ended Corsicana 6, Texarkana 6. Atlanta Schools Battle Fiercely In Scoreless Tilt Atlanta Schools Battle Fiercely In Scoreless Tilt Atlanta, Ga.—By all odds the most brilliant game of football played by colored teams in Atlanta this year, was the game last Saturday between Atlanta University and Clark University to determine the championship of Georgia and the city of Atlanta. The game only required only feat and each expected to put the other down. In the first quarter each team made two first downs; Pierce, the star tackle, got his forearm broken and had to retire, to the great loss of Atlanta. Clark received one penalty of fifteen yards for holding and Atlanta received five yards for off-side play. The second quarter was still more lively. Clark attempted four passes, two of which failed and two were missed. The thirdbee for Atlanta. Clark made two first downs and Atlanta one. Clark made the penalty of fifteen yards for holding. The third quarter soaked Clark on the penalty of fifteen yards for a foul, and he forged a victory for the same reason. The first successful pass of the game was made for thirteen yards from Edward to Charles. The second attempt was captured by Clark, but a third from Wheedoe to McPherson in five attempts to pass, one of which was covered by Atlanta. The only goal in five attempts by McPherson for Atlanta.

The curtain was formally raised upon the 1927 football season of the College Conference and thousand eyes expectant fans fell upon the raging Langton Lions lipped against the wall of the stadium on day for the Cats and their following: they with their host of sympathizers found comfort or cheer on day and day. And yet, out of that experience was born—no, not born, but recreated, the old Wiley spirit which never Thanksgiving Day, on Wiley Field, 3000 enthusiastic football fans watched one of the greatest football games ever played, the Wildcats teams; and although the Bears failed to realize their fondest hope, they gave an exhibition of football that the country except the Wiley Wildcats. The Wildcats deserve the championship they have as gloriously won without a single defeat. Coach Long again bears the distinction of being the greatest general in the gridiron world."

The heavy rain, which is beginning to fall throughout the day, kept down the attendances but failed to dampen the more like sea-monsters than like humongous monsters, honors, and to the condition of the field, there were few attempts made by either team to execute any plays other than straight football.

You can think they have so little that it is unnecessary to make a will, and they leave their families at the mercy of a probate court, and possibly unfriendly creditors in the disposition of their estate. No matter what kind of property, nor how little of it you have, you ought to make a will. You can make it for yourself and have him draw it up for you. It will cost little in comparison with the benefits it will confer on your beneficiary. Each state has its own requirements as to witnesses and rights of inheritance of the various members of your family. You can make a will, so that a lawyer ought to draw it. Will is the only means by which a person can direct the disposition of his estate after he is gone. The will takes your place and directs to whom, if you want, to be paid.

Improved Uniform International Sunday School Lesson (By REV. P. H. PITEWATER, D.D., Dean Moody Bible Institute of Chicago). (10. 1927, Western Newspaper Union 8.) Lesson for December 18 REVIEW: THE EARLY PROPHETS OF ISRAEL GOLDEN TEXT-God, who at sunrise times and in dwarfs manners spake in times past to the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken by PRIMARY TOPIC-What We Have JUNIOR TOPIC-Great Men and Great Teachings of the Quarter's Lessons INTERMEDIATE AND NENOR TOPIC-PROGRESS HOW PROGRESS PROBLEMS AND ADULT TOPIC-Mission of the Prophets. The method of review must always be determined by the genius of the teacher. It is important to have the particular grade in the school. For the adult classes three methods are suggested. 1. Biographical. The quarter six great prophets have been under review, namely, Elijah, Elisha, Amoos, Hosea, Haggal and Ishai. Assignments of these characters to represent the prophets of the week before so that they may come prepared to present the vital characteristics of these men. 2. Prophetic Messages to Modern Life. Assignments should be made the preceding Sunday so that the members of the class may come prepared to the lesson. The students of the prophets to the affair of modern life. The following questions may be considered as representative what application can be made of the prophets' teachings as te: (1) The land question in the United States, (2) the problem of capital and labor, (3) the problem of capital and labor, (4) light on the theological controversies of the present time, (5) a discussion of the cause of prohibition, (7) modern amusements, (8) modern church life. III. A Summary of Facts and Issues. Lenting for October 2. The basis of decision as between Baal and Jehovah was that the true God should answer by fire. The leading lesson is that accepted service in the supreme test, enabling men to come between God and heathen gods. Lesson for October 9. Elijah, who was brave before Baal, was able to defeat Jehovah by Jehovah's threat and run away. He failed at what had been his strong point. Lesson for October 16. Ahab escaped Nebuchadnei's vassalage and destroyed Nebuchadnei so that Ahab's petulant desire might be gratified. Judgment fell upon both Ahab and Jezebel. Lesson for October 23. A prophet is one who speaks forth God's message. When Isaiah had the vision of the Lord and was cleansed from sin, he was ready to go at the dawn. Lesson for October 30. Amos was called from the humble occupation of a shepherd and tradesman to fill the prophetic office. God sent him to the system of training for the supply of His workers for November 6. Though the nation had grievously sinned by worshiping idols, oppressing their fellow men and persecuting their people, God invited them to return to Him. Lesson for November 13. Isaac's apostasy was the result. In spite of their wickedness God loved them and pled with them to return unto Him. Isaiah pointed out the moral state of the people, exposing their ingratiate, stupidity, and inhibits of evil, and calling them to repent. Severely chastised them, their case was not hopeless. Lesson for November 4. Isaiah reminded Israel of God's peculiar favor under the figure of a favorite vineyard. He pointed out the need for a proper vineyard. The outstanding sins were oppression of the poor, drunkenness, proud self-conceit and persecution of justice. Through Isaiah's long ministry he was privileged to give counsel to servant Isaiah, who was the model of encouragement, sometimes of rebuke. To Abas he gave counsel of assurance, pointing to a day of deference to the Lord, and manuel. When Hezekh faced the crisis of invasion by the Assyrians, he insisted on the Lord and sent for Isaiah.

Tettenhall SESS See HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1927 COMMISSION NEEDS REORGANIZING! “Apropos of the agitation for a reorganization of the Houston Community Chest, and one or two other local welfare orxantza- tions, it appears to The Informer that, if this local agency, which Kis ioe is quote very year sine its introduction into his munity, needs to be revamped and renovated, most assuredly the Houstod Commission on Interracial Cooperation, particularly as it relates to the colored division, needs to be reorganized. ‘As presently constituted, it is The Informer’s honest and ean- 4id opinion that the local ‘commission will never function ax it should for many and obvious reasons. Primarily, the colored division (with all due respect to the pres- ‘ent colored chairman) needs new chairman—a man truly. rep- resentative of his race; intelligent, upstanding, reliable; a. man in whom the colored citizens of this community have confidence land one who begets their respect and goodwill. It also strikes ‘The Informer that the Houston commission jis too large, cumbersome and unwieldy; for with practically 75 ‘members'on the local commission, to say nothing of the women's fection, any sane and sensible person can readily discern that it ‘will be quite difficult for such a body to function. ‘The last time we counted the names of the local commission on cone of the printed letter-heads, We observed that about 30 white ‘men and. about 45 colored men constituted the Houston commis- lon; and, according to information imparted to this editor by ‘certain colored members of the local body, the colored division hhas never been permitted to exercise its rights in selecting its ‘own personnel, but without the colored division's knowledge or ‘consent, names of colored members have been added to the roster ‘with wellznigh reckless abandon. ‘No such policy or modus operandi should be pursued in any de- berative or democratic body; and, furthermore, no man should ‘be added to the membership or official personnel of the organiza: ttion just for tha honor which goes with such connections and ee uch largor rosiar than the state organization, “In. fact, we “Goubt if the sectional organization, embracing the entire South, ‘has a membership equal to Houston's, ‘At the outaide, nine o¢ eleven local citizens are enough to form, ‘and constitute the Houston Commission on Interracial Coopera- ‘tion or any other local commission; and these members should ‘white apd colored men and women who ean confer and diseuss Pmrecel eaters recy sad’ fenkywituont' reosraten et damaging their personal feelings. ‘White the Houston commission has accomplished a few worth- File thins, we fear its work has been seriously hampered both By the unwieldy sie of the local body and spotlight seeking pro- Densities of one or two of the leaders. ‘We have kept in constant touch with the activities and opera- tions of practically every local interracial commission in Texas and the South, and, if any such body has 75 or more members ‘on {ts local roster, it has escaped our attention’ Furthermore, we have also observed that Houston is one of the only few cities in America, claiming such an organization, where ita colored division is not headed by some outstanding layman, “The Informer has no fight to wage on our ministers or preach- ers, per se, but when they leave their pulpits and try to direct other aifairs, we have noticed that they generally make a mighty sorry showing, and that most projects. outside of the church hich these religious leaders essay to head up, usually die aborn- {ng or suffer a premature death Before the Negro race had any trained and educated leaders {in other fields of human endeavor, the minister was regarded as tthe best man to head and direct ali racial or interracial activities; Dut a diferent situation, exists today, and there are certain Ne- ‘#70 ministers—even in “Heavenly Houston"—who can neither ‘enlist nor secure any whole-souled support from even the mem- bers of their churches, to say nothing of the citizenship at large, Tt is really exasperating to behold some of our socalled “Ne- ‘gro leaders” swallowing gullbly. and subscribing. to-all types and species of leadership when superimposed by other races, and ‘berating and belittling this same leadership. when out of the presence of oug white group. ‘Too many of us endeavor to carry water on both shoulders; to an withthe hare and the hound; to play both ends against the ‘The Informer has no personal grudge against a single member fon the Houston Commission on Interracial Cooperation, white or black; but this paper is. intensely interested. in the successful arictioning of this body, und: we have reuched the conclusion that, to do this, the local commission muust he reorganized, re amped and reduced. ! in this connection, there are many Houston Negroes—several olding memberaip” onthe cal interacial. comission who the same opinion and belief as expressed by this paper, Dut they do not have the backbone, temerity and “nerve” to “apeak out in meeting.” Finally, The Informer fears that, as presently constituted and conducted, the Houston Commission on’ Interracial Cooperation, ‘as far as the colored end is concerned and involved, has about ott- Tived its days of usefulness and that reorganization of the body fs Meuperative! !
