Houston is facing the unemployment period in its recent history, and we have drifted to the city, in search of work in connection with the National Democratic Convention, which meets here June 26, 1928. Most complaint has been registered by women, and a protest by women was staged several days ago in the city's council chamber against a worker because of color, crest or class, but we wonder how many Mexicans can laborers with colored or white workers from the United States, if similar situation existed in their Even if these American whites and blacks have hired for considerably lower wages, we should still if Mexican employers would give them preference over Mexican workers. We have no fight or war to wage for them, and foreign workers of the unskilled type, but we do think that all employees should give primary consideration to employees and workers of their own country, and give certain immigration restrictions and barriers are passed by the national government to be unable to compete with such cheats.

They are as certain indicators of the public mind of the day as thermometers and barometers are of preventing weather. The functions of publications are pretty similar to those of newspapers, but the functions of newspapers are in "hot" or "cold" on any subject, and the editors have to do with density of thought and measure the weight, so to speak. This bit of deep stuff off the chair by way of creating a foundation for the public mind is the primary purpose of the newspaper. That impulse is shared by the expressed by quickwritten papers when our purpose of business and the more serious phases of life is under discussion, and the more hospitable. A great chance is slowly taking place. We are moving forward in our work on our newspapers. Our more and more find communities and businesses being disbanded on the editorial pages and more old sites we find news stories dealing with malicious articles on front pages and elsewhere through our newspapers. All of this is more than the newspapers are simultaneously carrying this column. In other columns of these same newspapers we are finding strong editorials of a supplementary character. For instance, the Washington Tribune is publishing a series of articles on behalf of the Thomas of Armstrong High School, in which the necessity for racial solidarity, undermining of business science chairs in our schools, and the merits of the race, and market research are told in a masterly way. Correspondence with the Domestic Commerce Division of the Bureau of Commerce will be the interest in these matters to do very well and very widely soon.

Skeptic Pullman Porters Now Join Their Brotherhood Kansas City, Mo.—As a result of an increase in wages which the Pullman car conductors have received through their own organization, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Conductors are now sending in their applications for membership in their own union. The Pullman conductors briefed with the U. S. Mediation Board about the same time that the porters did not arrive and did not arbitrate with the porters. By threats and intimidation they forced these men to accept the "Company Union" which is owned and controlled by the company. The Pullman conductors were not forced to accept the agreement and their union which has secured for them a second increase of 54% based on 240 hours work per month. The conductors received $185.15 while the porter received $72.50 for 400 hours work per month.

The studies just completed by the Institute of Social and Religious Research Made under the direction of Dr. T. J. Woolfer, Jr. of the University of North Carolina, this study covers situation typical American cities, both urban and rural, in a scientific investigation of Negro conditions ever made on anything like a farm. The study of the city drift of Negro populations and the resulting problems of friction, congestion, segregation, exploitation and discrimination. Contrary to the general impression, the report reveals that a little more migrants stopped in Southern cities, though the percentage of gain was much lower. In consequence of this rapid shift, overcrowding and congestion in Negro districts were found to be very severe. An example, Negro population showed a density of 385 per acre, as against 325 per acre in the tenement houses in Philadelphia, 175 families were found living in 354 rooms. With this crowding has gone an abnormally high death rate, particularly from tuberculosis, pneumonia, and rents, it was found, very much higher in the North than South, with the number of inmates in the North as high as $3.74 in the South. Lynchburg showed the minimum of sixty cents a room per person in the North as high as $1.78. In the case of 747 families living in Harlem, New York, it was found that the percentage of the total family income The investigators discovered a general face of public recreational facilities in the town, which were consequence a high rate of juvenile delinquency. The conditions of community rooms and dance halls, were found to be deplorable. "School funds are not adequate to meet the needs of Negro schools in North South," says the report. "Where there are separate Negro schools, more pupils are enrolled in the institution, with fewer seats in proportion than the white schools, more pupils in poorer salaries, fewer and smaller playgrounds, less adequate number of pupils, and few, if any, "extra," such as libraries, gymnasiums, etc. The number of pupils, and few, if any, "extra," was veiled by the survey in the tendency among Negroes toward home ownership. In every city salaries, except in the number of home owners had increased materially, and in Northern cities quite rapidly. Home owners have remained relatively constant in population, while the population of the home owning sections has been increasing. pletely confirmed," said Sir Gordon.

W. JAC Attest: JAS. T. EWING, District Gran You will please grant me permission to say a word through your paper, at this time, to the public concerning this branch of the Fraternal Family. The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows does not need introduction to the people, for it is well known in this country for its many deeds of charity and benevolence. In fact, the good deeds that this society has done might be piled up mountain high for your inspection if it were possible for us to go out and gather up even the fragments which these great deeds have left scattered over this great American continent, since its organization in this country. Suffice it to say, at this time, that the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows is one of the most potent influences at work among our people today, and it is hardly possible for any other organization in this country and throughout the world to have done more substantial work among the Negro race than has this great Order since its organization in the city of New York in 1843. We are bidding for 50,000 Negroes in Texas out of a Negro population of 800,000. The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows being one of the oldest institutions, one of the most substantial, and one of the leaders of charity, benevolence and material uplift, should demand the respect and support of all the builders of the race. Now, in consideration of what this Society stands for, what it has already accomplished and in consequence of the preponderance of evidences of its great usefulness as a race builder, we ask the public to continue its support of one of the greatest agencies of our racial development. We, in conclusion, present to the public our New and Extended Endowment policies, which give evidence of our continual prosperity and usefulness. Your attention is called especially to the following notice and description of these Policies: NOTICE TO LODGES AND HOUSEHOLDS The printed classification of policies and rates of premiums thereon as shown below are in line with the recommendation of the Grand Master to the Grand Lodge session at San Antonio, Texas, August last, which recommendation was adopted and the rates covering premiums on such policies have been worked out by Mr. B.

(ANF) - Business and financial circles were hard hit here Friday, when the Wage Board and a notice was found on the door, signed by the directors of the bank that the affairs of the institution were under the state superintendent of banks. Heavy withdrawns over a period of time led to the bank being given as the probable reserves for the closing of the bank. The bank was established in 2000 and has the reputation of being one of the largest banks in the country. It is felt here that the affairs of the institution will soon be reopened as soon as the real estate loans can be connected into cash. See Sawahm Printing Co. for good printing.

C.-Possibly one of the greatest revival meetings ever held in the national capital came to a close last week, when Rev. E. L.

Harrison home with a trophy representing approximately 160 souls saved and reclaimed to local churches, and the evinced good-will of Washington's etiquette. Standing Room At Premium There is no double but that the noted Texan press made a big hit in this season, not to mention a member nothing quite like it before the season, even running over people every night and even stopping from their sleep, and even running week to week, to hear a man preach. Certainly, they insist, there has been nothing more important to compare with it in a similar instance, not only from the viewpoint of in-vestigators, the orthodox manifested throughout the day, during Texan's campaign, but from the number of members added to the various groups. WHITE MINISTER SPEAKS TO NEGRO STUDENT GROUP Duytona Beach, Fl. — (A N P) — Speaking one of the largest audiences ever gathered in the Bedford, N.J., George Atkinson, a white Presbyterian minister from Jackson, Miss., Sunday demon chained him to "Character, courage, sensitivity and sensitive conscience and consecration to duty are the four essentials of a Christian life," colored, with these elements woven into his education, will find in return an enriched personality for himself. He has been given to the world by him." The meeting Sunday afternoon on Monday was being staged by Mrs. Mary McLeod, the dean of the college, for the benefit of the community. Each Sunday has been the attendance and this last was a win for a breaker. WAITS NATURAL FONIC for weak back, achilles and pain in the run down condition of the nerves, vitality; for men and women.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURABY, MARCH 24, 1928 Improved Uniform International TODAY'S RECIPE SundaySchool Lesson (By REV. P. H. FITZWATER, D.D., Dean Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (22, 128. Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for March 25 REVIEW—JESUS PROCLAIMS THE KINGDOM OF GOD GOLDEN TEXT—And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching their sickness and every disease, the gospel of the Kingdom, and healing their sickness and every disease. JUNIOR TOPIC—Mark's Stories About Jesus. MEDIAN TOPIC—AND SENIOR TOPIC—How Jesus Began His Work. THE EARLY MEMORIES—The Early Ministry of Jesus. The method of review must always be determined by the genius of the teacher, the grade of the school, and the aptitude of the pupil. For the senior and adult classes perhaps the teacher marries the facts of each lesson and to study the main teaching thereof. Since the great personality around Jesus is the teacher, the quarter gather is Jesus Christ, it ought not to be difficult to plan a review. Whatever plan it uses is useful. Jesus thought out and assignment made to the different scholars a week ahead of time. The following suggestions **Lesson for January 1.** John the Baptist is in fulfillment of Isaiah's prophecy announcing the advent of Jesus, the Son of Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, as witnessed by John the Baptist and the Voice from the open **Lesson for January 8.** Jesus taught with authority and demonstrated it by comparing demons, healing a fever, and saving a man. He is able to save to the uttermost, to deliver from all kinds of sickness and satanic power. **Lesson for January 15.** Jesus freely gave Himself to the task of healing the diseases of the people and forging a new life in that Jesus has not only power to heal the diseases of the body but to forgive sin, which is the cause of disgrace. **Lesson for January 22.** Jesus lived His life in comfort with God's law. Conflict with the Jews over the matter of fasting and the Sabbath was due either to their failure to understand God's law or to its perversion. In the end, through comforts to God's law. **Lesson for January 29.** With the increase of the fame of Jesus came increase of opposition. In spite of the increased opposition, the church tuned His mighty works in casting out demons and ministering to those in need. **Lesson for February 5.** Jesus was misunderstood by His friends. His family and fellow townmen, and viciously opposed by the scribes and Pharisees. A spiritual nature is in order to understand Christ. **Lesson for February 12.** Jesus showed Himself the master teacher of the kingdom so as to conceal the truth from those who were not in sympathy with Him and by interpretation to be understood by His disciples. Jesus deity was manifested in calming the storm-tossed and in healing the demonic. Because of what Jesus is in need of, the church was forced to lesson for February 28. Jesus raised from the dead jalrus' daughter and healed the woman who had been afflicted for twelve years. Only a few years later, Jesus was forced to lesson for March 4. Jesus called twelve men and sent them forth to preach the gospel of the kingdom. He was unmarried and unmarried with power to heal diseases. **Lesson for March 11.** Christ compassion upon the multitudes and his gifts, our small gifts and possession, when placed at the Lord's disposal, are insufficient for any need. **Lesson for March 18.** Christ denounced the empty forms and traditions of the Pharisees and showed that detachment can only come from a genuine faith. Eternal Thoughts The thoughts of God are eternal thoughts. They are independent of time, independent of worlds. You set your life on God, and you will go to God. After you have set your life into that life, it need never be changed. Let change come, let death come, we pass on still doing God's work. And after Alexander Mackenzie.

In issuing a mandatory writ against Perry Howard and his) Republican regime in Mississippi, restraining them from “un- taveful manipulation of the state Republican party in.

Utgnton, finaly appeal ed tigation, appealed to the Unit ‘States Supreme Court, is well known to citizens throughout the ‘American cotimonwesith; for the highest legal tribunal in the and not only ‘the contentions for civil redress set forth by the colored doctor, but ruled that any legislation or action, ‘hich sok to zens from active participation in party fairs because of eblor, creed on class, is fundamentally at vi tance both with the spirit and letter of the national constitution. Most assuredly, if the, American Negro has the constitutional ight to ‘Democratic party. primary elections, Gil'tae came right and warranty participate in’ Republican ary conventions aid elections in this or any other state. "Texas Republicans, who have been victimized for the last sev- eral years by the “political manipulators” of the party in this ‘State, should take fresh courage from the recent ruling, of the Mississippi jurist, and organize their forces now for whatever Tecourse ig necessary and proper, in order to exercise and ‘Ghair rights. as Republican electors and American citi ‘ama, fromthe precinet to the national conventions of the “grand old party.” “Thedlaw is very: plain in this state in outlining and preserib- ing the manner in which calls shall be issued for party. conven- tions, and how same shall be held and conducted; and, since these statutes were not written into the organic law of the state bby Republican, and, since Democrats wrote the law and have to do with its enforcement, The Informer agrees with the Missis sippl chancllor thatthe “court may lend its power to prevent ‘of such civil statutes by “unlawful manipulation” of miata Geman, eonwmatinn wad sectienn. EXPLODING SECTIONAL MYTH | With the titular head of the national Democratic party in the| ity during the week lining up things for the national gathering! ote held here June 26, 1928; with the awarding of the contract for the erection of the convention hall, and the approval by the| leading partisan and journalistic lights of the plans as drawn by ‘the architects, which will be incorporated into. the massive strecture; with the citizens subscribing in cash $800,000 in 10 days to the convention fund; with the appointment of the vari ous committee chairmen and members, it begins to appear that “Heavenly Houston” will make good as host to the first meeting of its kind held below the Mason and Dixon line since 1860. The national parley of the Democrats will not only benefit and help Houston, but it will give the party leaders and other visi- tors from the North, East and West an opportunity to, see Tex fan and the Southwest trom a new angle, and to gather some first-hand information and correct. some ‘erroneous, ideas con cerning this section of the country. How different are our Democratic leaders, who hold to the view that the South is entitled to auch a gathering because the main party strengtM throughout all these Years has been largely Southern, from some of our racial leaders, who object to and. op- pose any’ national meeting of said raclal organizations holding ‘bue such parley inthe "far South;” who. (sald black leaders) contend that since, conditions, interracially, are not perfect in {this section of the country, the Negroes of this section must be penalized and boycotted. ‘If the line of sectionalism is to broken down, and if there is ‘to be a complete cessation of the prejudices, hatreds and fears which are chiefly racial and sectional. national meetings of both races should be occasionally in the principal Southern cities.
