THE HOUSTON INFORMER Colored Residents In California City Victims of Vandals Los Angeles, Cal.—(ANP)—The cowardly acts of whites who are attempting to force Negroes to move out of the Manhattan Beach district, have aroused a race hatred that is seldom manifested in this section and if something is not done to stop the white hoodlums, Los Angeles may have a race riot. This tense feeling was brought about by a series of dynamiting, shootings, and burnings in the Manhattan Beach, climaxed here last week by the firing of rifles into several houses occupied by Negroes on Twenty-first Street. It is reported here that District Attorney Keyes has been conducted over the situation for six weeks and expects to bring several prominent business men before the law to explain their connection with the gangsters who are believed to be perpetrating the crimes and endangering the lives of citizens in Manhattan Beach. Coleman Sounds Alarm To Texas Race Baptists; Denomination Imperiled Jack Garrin, Manhattan's chief of police, has been scored severely for the lack of protection accorded Negroon there, and the knight of the law coltered body. Dana Bromt has it the chief will be hailed before the grand jury when it convenes here next month. In spite of the persistent efforts of the whites, Negroen have refused to be held and identified their intention to protect their property, with their lives. They have appealed to the police for protection, but from the continual bombings it seems that Little can be expected from that kind of behavior. Coleman Sou To Texas Ra Denominat Fort Worth, Tex., Feb. 12, 1928. Editor Hunting Informer: America's Greatest Weekly Newspaper HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1928 is now a very desirable location far home. Until the natural beauty of the section was brought out, Nogees living in the section were unimproved and soon an outdoor work space was added by engineers and landscape gardeners, the whites thought it was a bit too beautiful for Nogees and have sought ever since to evict them. Several houses have been filled into and burned, but the largest loors are reported to be the white insurance companies, as the Negra citizens have injured their homes against these hazards. The better law and an oath to the race riot may be avoided and new urging the district attorney to use the power of his office to sweit it.

He has ability, is a lawyer, has served the state of Ohio as a lawyer, and has been interested in to see the senator in action on the floor of the senate when he places his arm around the neck of a senator. He has with his most engaging smile. This smile seems to carry the assurance, "You, "("I am against you.") Senator Walters is a bone dry and it goes without saying that the higher the degree of his experience how the farmers of the Northwest would take his candidacy, deponent candidate. Senator Charles Curtis of Kansas is very much a prospect, and does not hesitate to talk to his friend that he will be a senator for years or more at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, this being the street number of the palatial residence Ucum Sam. He has been selected as president and where that man's family maintains its social acclimatization. Senator Curtis served his state in a lower house in the 1980s, a majority leader on the floor of the senate, a most exacting position, which he so acceptably did. Democratic friends and his friends it has been said that he has his own special his veins, which is doubled true, he is swarthy complexioned, has dark skin, and high cheek bones, but un-indian like he sports a heavy moustache.

He positions himself as the head and front of the independent Republics of the nation, then making him leader of the matter, given the old line Republics much more deny, although the progressive block has hatched his hat and thrown it into the fire. Senator Norris is of statemanship and means from any angle, is full of ambition, is the lawyer of ability, has served several gov'ts, and since his election to the senate in 1913, has taken front rank as a leader of the side of the people and against special privileges of the few. He also presided over other presidential prospects now sitting in the U. S. senate and some outside of that distinguished group.

The shock of taking regular baths was dangerous. The idea was criticized by commonwealth officials and even commonwealths the legislature acting upon the tip given by doctors whom the public knew knew more about bathing. To stop this "devilish idea" by imposing a tax of $30 upon each bath, Boston, following this lead, actually prohibited baths, except after the death of a patient being drafted by physician. In Philadelphia an ordinance which would have made it illegal to take baths in public was defeated. November was defeated by only two votes. It not laugh!

I went up to the "mountain-top," ashelvine, where I was presented under the performance of the retainer of the Y. M. C. A., and sang to the accompaniment of another of my former pupils, which reminds me of the way I would be sure of the efficiency of their accompanists, before starting out on my own years and years develop their own.

The new ruling does not affect San Huston College, the next year because, with one exception, every member of the past year's team was in the college department. The Southwestern Athletic Conference, of which Samuel Huston is a member, permits six years of varsity play and six years as high school students and four years as college students.

Those five are George Dixon, biancone, hanweight Joe Watt, wettweight; Sam Joe Watt, joe; Wettweight; Jackson Johnson, heavyweight. George Dixon was biancone and featherweight champion of the world.

He wettweight, hanweight or featherweight him the lion-heart little Nova Scotia never lived.

He was the first to be forfeited night, the money to be forfeited unless Walcott licked both men in convincing fashion. Such was the greatness of Walcott and shoulders over any welterweight that ever lived. Finally Smith was the one man who gave him his hardest battles and they hooked up a number of times, Joe winning frequently. Sam was the man that breathed between the weights of 65 and 80 pounds, and members whom we rate as the world's greatest "All Time" middleweight. The weight of 80 pounds, Gardner, Jack Root, Jack O'Brien, Fireman Jim Fim, Ketchel, and his silvan were wonderful lightweights, some instances. But the devastating author of the six-inch hook that bone and sinew could not withstand, As for Jack Johnson, he was the perfect athlete. His reflexes were unbelievable, and his ordination was a thing of beauty unequalled by any heavyweight. Unbelievable, he himself, the man who forced Bob Fitzsimons to admit he wanted none of the palm nevertheless. No boxer was able to make Johnson a better upper-cut went out of existence when he became too old to fight.

Lesson for February 26 OTHER MIGHT WORKS OF JESUS LESSON TEXT—Mark 2:11; 35-44 GOLDEN TEXT—Txty faith bath INTERMEDIATE AND NENDOR TOP-K Jesus the Giver and Preserver of YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-K The Works of Path. The accounts of the raising of the children of Jesus are so interwoven as almost to constitute one narrative. But since the people are diverse and places separate, they should be treated separately. 1. Jairus' Daughter Raised from the Dead (v. 22-34 and 35-42). 2. Joseph's Daughter Raised (v. 82-34). 3. His only daughter (v. 44-23), perhaps his only child, lay dying. In this time of utter helplessness he came to surrender to Jesus, to raise her up. In the providence of God, sorrow, sickness and death are often used to bring needy men and children to Jesus. Jesus showed the proper attitude toward Jesus, "He fell at His feet" (v. 22). 2. Jesus goes to Jairus (v. 24). 3. Jesus goes to Joseph, laying his hand upon his daughter she would live. Such faith always gets a response from Jesus. 4. Jesus of his daughter's death (v. 33). The messenger who brought the news of her death suggested that he should go further, as it was now too late. 4. Jairus' faith strengthened (v. 30). As soon as daes heard the words spoken concerning the death of this girl, he said to the father, "Be not afraid, only believe." The moors rebeled (vv. 37-38). He now dismissed the crowd and allowed only three of his disciples to enter the church this chamber of death with Him. 4. Jairus' faith rewarded (vv. 41-42). He took the dammed by the hand and issued the command for her to arise. The expression "Talia cillum" expressed. "Wake up, little girl." Straight arose and walked and parted of the Woman With an issue of Blood Healed (vv. 32-34). 1. Hcr helpless condition (vv. 25, 25, cf. Luke 8:33). She had been a great sufferer for twelve long years. 2. Her faith (vv. 27, 28). With the communication of He healing virtue, He spake most gracious and comforting words to this man, and he comforted her, not her faith, that she had saved her. Faith does not need to face dangers and to exhaust itself in active suffering, but in the presence of blessing. All that is required is a trusting prayer. Not only did she gain the blessing, but had the distinctions of her being ad having been addressed by Jesus as "daughter," which shows His spirit of tenderness to those who come to Him with their need. Grace and Knowledge Grace is given of God, but knowledge is bought in the market—Clough. Epitaph for the Sinner Every sin is a mimeake, and the witten is bought in the "too fool"—Alexander Modern.

That which landed among the stones, the thorns and in the barren places, perished. Only the seeds which reached the good ground had a chance to grow. The modern advertiser does not strew his seed of salesmanship to the winds. He plants it carefully in the "good ground"—in the places where because of favorable conditions it has a chance to bear a harvest of consumer results. He uses newspaper advertising because through the newspapers he covers completely the markets which he knows, upon careful investigation, to be right places for his product to flourish. Advertising in The Informer Sells the Goods WEBSTER-RICHARDSON PUBLISHING COMPANY, Inc. AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER INDUSTRY AND BUSINESS Surveyed by The Associated Negro Press with the cooperation of The National Negro Business League and the Department of Commerce and Other Reliable Agencies. NOTE—If the articles appearing in this column suggest any particular question to your mind, or if you desire further information along the lines suggested, you may address the Editor of the Business Department of the Associated Negro Press, 4621 Indian Avenue, Chicago, Illinois, or Secretary, National Negro Business League, Taukeegee Institute, Alabama, or a communication to the Inquiry Division, Bureau Domestic Commerce, Washington, D. C., will be productive of the further information desired. BANK PRESIDENT TALKS ABOUT BUSINESS C. H. Douglas, president of the Middle Georgia Savings and Investment Company of Macon, Georgia, is a keen and observing business man who has had the benefit of many years' experience in several lines of business. Out of that experience has come the philosophy which enables him to conduct a variety of enterprises, not only in Macon, but with widely scattered investment businesses. In a recent communication to the editor of this department he wrote: "I find in special lines we are doing well. The undertaking and insurance business is forging ahead nicely; but in the grocery, drug and theater business, to mention a few lines, we are scarcely doing our own. "You are interested in what must be done to improve business," he continued. "Well, the Negro must first study the psychology of the people and cater to it. He must prepare to meet the competition of prices and loosen his grip on the business. He must take an interest in instilling in his people race pride and self-consciousness, especially where his trade is primarily with his people. This interest must not be selfish. It must be general. His own benefits will come along with those of the other merchants of the group. "Before entering a particular business, he should first investigate the probabilities of there being a fair chance at success for him in the field operations he has chosen. If there are others in the line in the community not prospering, unless he can detect the fault responsible, he has little right to complain. He must study the business methods and be self-convinced that he is capable of better serving the public, can sell goods cheaper or with other substantial reasons upon which to base the expectancy of success. "He must not hope to succeed through friendship, great as that asset is to any business; nor will sheer lock avail him. Few men succeed haphazardly. It is through the survival of the fittest, all other things being equal." It is sound advice from an authoritative source, and well worth passing on for the benefit of those sincerely interested in making a success of business. ATTRACTING EASTERN AND NORTHERN CAPITAL The question has been asked as to how may Eastern and Northern capital best be attracted, secured by first mortgage secured on first calls Negro property? It has been associated the inquiry as to how can finance be obtained to finance the selling, and mortgage of negro homes? The answer to these questions is an interlocking one—cooperation is the keyword to both. To interest outside public, that capital first must be assembled somewhere. In business practice, banks, insurance companies, trust companies, investment concerns, etc. are the usual assembling points. Such concerns are not limited to the financial interests of all people. All people naturally lean toward that with which they are most familiar, except for the speculative few who for the prospect of greater profits venture elsewhere in person, or represented by their money. It is therefore logical that to attract favorable attention from these controllers of the reservoir of reserve funds that one's interests be made familiar to them. There must be the interest of those financial ventures who are cautious, there must be solidity of investment to hold that interest when attracted, and that solidity must be made known to them in unmistakable terms that are susceptible of verification. This job, in any community worth the effort, is too great for any one individual business to underwrite the returns cannot be concentrated upon one person or business. Hence, we find the extensive advertising campaigns conducted by such associations as boards of directors of banks and companies to make known the desirability of a community as a place for investment. Get your progressive elements of your community organized. Have the organization assemble the facts concerning the population of the community. The earning power of this population; the stability of employment; the range of employment so as to show the probabilities of the failure or success of the organization; and the time" the emotional condition of the community which is an indicator of the future; the rate of population growth; the financial history of the community; the property ownership; the number of businesses together with as accurate approximation as may be obtained as to the average gross and net incomes. Learn the record of the people for credit and prompt payments; ascertained the credit history of the business men of the group; the data as to how they paid off their obligations. List the numbers insured, ascertain the average coverage of life and fire insurance, and obtain data upon the success or failures among the business men of the group. This is a job of perhaps a year for a competent secretary or research agent and it costs some money. But, do these things and be prepared to pay for having them well done; and the foundation for some splendid publicity. You will be able to see that many and many investors will seek confirmation of what is said about the community, and follow that with investment. You want the investment; hence, you must pay for the means of getting it. This cost pro-rated among the membership of a genuinely interested group would be of little cost to each; and the growth of the community would pay back each interested one many fold. Organized, have the organization make itself known to the world at large. Establish contact with the local chamber of commerce, with the National Negro Business League and with the United States Division of Domestic Commerce by asking them for such information as each may have that will be helpful. This process will make your body known to each of these and it will become a component part of their own published lists. Then when you have received the information, you may be asked by the authorities for some one to whom they may write, you will be among those asked for information. And your information will be more favorably accepted because you have come to the inquirer's notice through channels in which he has confidence. You will be asked to answer the questions again stand out as the essentials. A local finance corporation or building and loan association meets the need. Money is inimid, and goes where success seems obvious. If the local concern is doing a successful business, you will be asked to answer the questions again. Given a community with a live civic organization and a going finance company, one will, as a rule, find it to be a community that has little need to use other efforts to attract investments. Witness, please, Chicago where you live, is a good place to find a community with another in process of organization: where six insurance companies have funds to invest and where several good finance companies, like the National Negro Business League and with the United States Division of Domestic Commerce and paying semi-annual dividends to the stockholders.

C. —(PNS)—Dr. Roosece B. Brown, lecturer and special consultant in the U. S. department of health service, makes a special effort to recruit social workers, and other persons interested in the health of the Negro and of the American people. The public health work for and by the New population has suffered from the lack of information that would give a true picture of the Negro population to be attacked. This lack of information has been duly chiefly the result of the WED --- public health service authorized the office of statistical investigations to prepare a bulletin on mortality among Negroes. This bulletin includes the United States, Public Health Office of "Mortality Among Negroes of the United States," and Public Health Office of "Mortality Among Negroes of the United States," by Assistant Statistician Mary Goye, Sr. D., with a brief introduction to the distribution of statistical investigations. The bulletin contains in concise form the distribution of these population groups in white and colored populations including the distribution of these population groups to which they live in cities and in rural areas, the rate at which they live in cities and in rural areas, the rate at which they live in cities and in rural areas as well as in cities; the changes in the "expectation of the mortality from important causes with special reference to pulmonary disease"; and the mortality from important causes with special reference to pulmonary disease. erate States, where the great bulk of Negroes live, have not developed their statistics of mortality up to the age of 18. They are to the U. S. death registration area. Within the last few years, however, the vital statistics of most of the Negroes in the United States are standard, and a mass of facts has not accumulated relating to the causes of death among Negroes as a general geographical environment. Statistics Available Free "The statistics are available for the most part in the annual mortality statistics volumes of the U. S. and for the most part in the state and local health departments; but Negro as well as other sanitation officials are destabilizing of collecting these annual in such a form as to make them easily available to those who are interested."

AAt that time The Informer discussed the availability of Henry Ford, who was being prominently mentioned as Republican presidential nominee; Herbert Hoover, in whose behalf a mil pre-convention "campaign was tentatively projected by some of his admirers and supporters; the late General Leonard. Wood, whose cause we filly espoused after Mr. Hoover would not | consent to enter the race; Charles Evans Hughes, one of the | most brilliant statesmen America has produced; and former Governor Frank 0. Lowden of Ulinois, who made a mighty fine war-time chief magistrate of the Prairie State. and is recognized ts being sympathetic and friendly tothe Negro race. | "our delay’ in announcing our pre-convention choice for presi dent has been occasioned by our “watehful waiting” policy, to | see if any other aspirant would enter the presidential field. who | would prove a better man than Mr. Hoover or any of the other | wowed candidates and “favorite sons.” “The “favorite son” idea has never had any particular appeal to The Informer, for it only affords the said “favorite” a chance |to so manipulate and maneuver affairs as to get some conces- |‘Sions in the final showdown, s |__Every citizen is quite familiar with the public record of Mr, |Hoover! his activites during the World War as ‘national food |administrator, and how capably he managed and conducted this ‘mammoth program: his recent interest and activity in the Miss- issippi River flooded area; his grasp on public questions and is- ‘sues, particularly as they affect our domestic prosperity and re- sultant harmony’ and happiness, as well as our international rela Uionships; how he advoeates and stands for efficiency and pro- ficiency in governmental affaira; his utter lack of party ortho- ‘Another thing, Mr. Hoover has not solicited and is not yet seeking the office of president, but the office seems to be seeking hhim, which is one of the best recommendations as to his char- acter, ability and qualifications for the highest elective office Within the gift of the American electorate. ‘in discussing and considering. the fitness and qualifications of aspirants, prospects and candidates for various public fics, it {s'customary for groups or blocs to discuss and consider such official possibilities in the light of their attitude and sympathy towards said group or bloc. Tn this respect, if Mr. Hoover maintains the same sympathetic attitude towards the Negro race as he has in former Years, and 45 he did recently when he virtually fnued an edit in the Mis issippi River flood area, practically emancipating. thousantls Negro peons and serfs from the damnable and diabolical slave- system almost universally in vogue in the delta section; if Mr. Hoover remains the man with a free rind, and if he stays Joya and steadfast to his religious creed and training; if he does not permit designing politicians and political demagorrues to. sway [End sweep him from the path of his holden duty. The Informer Considers him the best man in the field for Republican nomina tion as standard-bearer in the 1928 general election. ‘As far as the Negro citizens of Texas are concerned, the fact | that the anti-Negro Republican regime has already announced {or ar tower should have no itor depressing ect upon out group; for we are free, untrammeled ‘of the state and ational governments, and have the constitutional and inalien- | able right to support any man, for any office in the gift of said | electorate. |" "The fact that one Republican faction in Texas has already endorsed Mr. Hoover's candidacy and is now organizing, white “Hloover-for-president” clubs in various sections of the state | trying to enroll and enlist white Democrats to the Hoover cause; |snd'the fact’ that another group of white Republicans hac |Iatunched an anti-Creager movement in the state, should not de ter the Negroes of Texas {rom bestirring and interesting. them selves in the presidential aspirant which we believe will make | the best chier executive of the republic; for are we not part and | parcel of this nation, and is not the Republican party, national: fy. the only political’ organization which gives the Negro some {ype of recognition and consideration? | "The voting strength, in Texas, and most Dixie states, both | pre-convention and ygeneral election, lies in the Negroes of sai | state, and thus our racial group is in a position to wield a pow. rfl inuence nthe cause of any partial presidential re pect or aspirant: if we will only organize our forces, concentrate |Our efforts in one given direction and labor unselfiahly toward | the consummation of our program. "The Informer has made the repeated suggestion that the Ne | ro voters of Texas should hold a statewide conference and tak same desinite plideal action before it in too late; but if no suck parley’ is called, then we suggest that Negroes in their several communities assemble, discuss the merits of the various prest |dential prospects, and’then line up behind and support the man | they think will Best serve theirs and the country’s interests. “The Informer believes that man is Herbert Hoover. || White no authentic information is available at this writing, it '|is The Informer’s calculation. that fully’ 150,000 to 200,000 Ne | groes are qualified to vote in Texas during 1928; and this voting ower can certainly be felt, either in pre-convention activities i the cause of various presidential aspirants or in’ the. primary tions of next duly oF tne" eneraetion- doing ex {| "To ‘The Informer’s way of thinking, the Texas Negro, stands today on the threshold of a new and better day, from both a partisan and political standpoint, if the black race in this stat will just manifest s little interest and activity’ as other citizen In our commonwealth are doing. ‘The Texas Negro is a vietim of political slavery and partisar ‘excommunication; partisan usurpers have driven the Negro {rou the party of his firs love and ths toda we Gnd the Texas bic ‘man largely in a state of apathy, indifference and lethargy re fading ihe exercise and enjoyment of “his elective francine | Fights. | “Again we reiterate that “he who would be free, himself must t strike the first blow:” and the hour has arrived in Texas when s|the Negroes must arise in the strength of their manhood and | womanhood, contend with all their energy for their constitution {Al rights, both as Republican electors and plain citizens of the | commana: OPINIONS The Negro and the Next President lef Negro lendeghip.
