HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JULY 28, 1928 Constitutional Rights of Race Not Invaded Federal Judge Rules Grigsby and DeWalt Denied Injunction Against Harris County Democratic Party Election Offices—Court Ruling Keen Disappointment To Local Negroes—Evans Ably Presented Case. In a lengthy opinion handed down last Monday by Federal Judge J. C. Hutcheson, Jr., J. B. Grigsby and O. P. DeWalt, two outstanding colored citizens who sought an injunction in the local federal court to restrain Harris County Democratic election officials from preventing them and members of their race from voting in the Democratic primary elections Saturday, July 28, and the run-off primary of Saturday, August 25, were denied the writ sought; the court holding that partisan executive committees are not state agents or agencies, and that the plaintiffs had failed to show where their legal rights had been invaded or infringed. The case was argued before. Judge Hutcheson last Friday, Judge D. Evans colored attorneys of Worth County, the local plaintiffs, and C. F. Stevens represented the Harris County Democratic executive committee and chairman, made parties to the suit.

At the same time to provide improved living conditions at a considerable saving in rents. The aim is to prove that the project afford, may be had by families of limited means with a fair return to rent. Rosenwald believes, will demonstrate that large scale projects can be proficient in various sections of Chicago. The Michigan Boulevard site was present, a large proportion of the Neighborhood, was selected, it was explained, chiefly because the need for housing among Negroes is more pressing than in any other community in apartments formerly occupied by whites. Most of these apartments are occupied by only one or even two families. The result has been over-crowd, and the tenants are being drawn by Enginee H. Kirkman, Jr., architects, with Grumfeld, Jr., architects, with Simmons, who is chairman of the board. Heury Wright and associates of New York, international authorities on the construction industry.

SURVEY PROVES Boston, Mass. (ANP)—Of the twin issues likely to become prominent in the political campaign this fall, those of religion and liquor, it is the latter most likely to affect the Negro vote throughout certain sections of the country despite our known prediction for the former. For though in America the Negro is overrepresented in the country, it developed the hatred and distrust of Catholicism which affects his white Methodist and Baptist brethren. WHY IS IT? This is probably due to two reasons, first as an underprivileged minority by the white majority a sense of sympathy has been developed for the Catholics, also a minority group in the United States, and the Catholic religion universally have been little in the way of prejudice, according to those who are espousing the Catholic religion. They are Negroes an integral part of the Catholic denomination, which is making definite attempt to embody the color bar, it is said, even in the South and throw a benevolent arm about them. The differences of where Catholics have helped push individuals are cited, among them Jesse Binga, the Catholic bank- "A man wakes up in the morning, after sleeping under an advertised blanket on an advertised mattress, and pulls off advertised pajamas; takes a bath in an advertised tub; shaves with an advertised razor; washes with advertised soap; powders his face with advertised powder; dons advertised underwear, hose, shirt, collar, shoes, suit, handkerchief; sits down to a breakfast of advertised cereal; drinks a cup of advertised coffee; puts on an advertised hat; lights an advertised cigar; rides to his office in an advertised auto on advertised tires; deposits money in advertised institutions; then he refuses to advertise on the grounds that advertising does not pay." On the other hand the specious cry of "easier liquor" has found a reverence in cities and industrial centers. Here, without investigating the fact that Al Smith can not change the constitution of the South, which is a part of it, Nergees are frequently declaring themselves for the South to stand for personal liberty and hope that because he seems an anthem to parts of the South that somehow he is an anthem to them. They point to the record of Tammany Hall machine rule in New York, where specific evidences of friendliness on Governor Smith's part, give him the credit for Tammany friendliness. In Massachusetts, voting states are not strong. In Maryland, a Romanian stronghold, there is a sprinkling. Catholic are present in surprising numbers. According to the figures submitted by the department of census, Catholics outnumber Protestants. In Massachusetts there are 80,000 more Catholics than protestants, while in New York state there are repudiated Catholics. 1 Even Mid-Western Michigan shows a majority of Catholics as does Hoover. Not all Catholics can be relied on to formake their republicanism but the strength of Smith's plan and the strength of Simmons' bredness are certain to make the Negro vote more of a deciding factor.

PRIMARY TOPIC=Paul and Brian Friend Go to Tell Others About Jesus. JUNOR TOPIC=Paul and Barnabas as Missionsaries. The Spirit directed the church to send forth Barbahas and Saul to the city of Jericho. The Spirit called and the church recorded the motion by sending those who were Spirit-called. A real man of the church, Jesus, called the Holy Spirit. It should be the concern of the church to constrain itself from the temptation of laborers into the Lord's vineyard. It is to be noted that the church is the very best men from their company at Antioch. This is it should be. Success in the mission field is dependent upon the women upon the altar by the church. I. Barbahas and Saul Preaching the IV. Paul and Barnabas in the Synagogue at Antioch in Pidia (v. 34). From Paphon Paul and Barnabas with Mark went northward to Perga. It is from this place, perhaps because that the journey started out with good intentions, but the trains seemed too great for him to endure. Mark reissued himself later, and Barnabas and missionary Journey Paul would not consent for Mark to accompany them, although he later testified in Pidia that he had been sent to Perga they went to Antioch in Pidia and entered the synagogue on the road to the Gentiles he began with the Jews. After the usual reading of the Scriptures, in response to the invitation, they went to Antioch first recorded sermon. This sermon is worthy of careful study. When analyzed we find it had four parts, 1. The introduction 2. Derrition (v. 38, 30). 3. Derrition (v. 38, 30). 4. Practical (v. 40, 41). The effect of the sermon was that missionary Journey requests to hear these words again. Almost the whole city came to hear the Word of God the next Sabbath. While many of the Jews allowed Journey provoked open opposition, Take Heed Wherefore take need of being painted fire, wherein is no warmth; and wherein is no flowers, wherein is of being painted trees, wherein is no fruit; "Whoso boonsteth himself of a shade gift, is like clouds and wind without rain."-John Burnys.

The trustees formally accepted a recent offer of the General Education Center to donate $300,000 for endowment on the condition that an even amount be raised for the same purpose from other sources. A vigorous campaign for the raising of the required $300,000, was allotted to the Texas constituency, and launched in the trustee meeting recently held here. Bishop R. E. Jones, president of the Wiley College board of trustees, Bishop Jones was reappointed by the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church at Kansas City for the third consecutive quadrennium as episcopal executive of the church, and renewed pledges of loyalty to the resident bishop were expressed in letters to those present, this being his first visit to Texas in the new Penn To Direct Campaign Wiley As Graduate School L.

Favro (white) of Louisiana was manifesting much interest in Negro education in Negro educational financial in winning from the General Education Bureau a conspicuous commitment to the idea of raising Wiley to the rank of a graduate school, acclimatized to the curriculum.

WILLIAMS Volumes have been written and seminars by the score have been delivered on how to interest the young people in church activities. Every modern invention and improvement have come in for its share of condemnation, criticism and lack of interest the young folks have heretofore shown toward church attendance and religious activity. Ministers and older church workers have turned their batteries into worst offenders against church offenders by our youth, and no less so by our students, who scored for adding considerably to the sum total of non-attendance, non-involvement and guard for religious services. The high schools and colleges have not been exempt from these attacks from the religious community, those more advanced in years, and by those who have leans since censored their publications. The heads of these institutions of learning have been raised in religious doctrines and zealous reactionaries and standdeters, for the lack of proper disenchantment the religious doctrine and zealous reactionaries to which this or that particular president or principal of the school How often have you envied a muscular, well built man whose very appearance clearly seem to draw people to him? Girls thrill every time they look at his broad shoulders and superb but form. They want to meet him. His manly appearance seems to verify his great energy, the amount of push and backbone he has. He takes of taking the back seat in life. Get busy! You too, can have a wonderfully developed body with super muscularity that help put on solid healthy flesh—they are marvelous to restore your former energy and vampire-like skin. Underweight man or woman any thin, underweight man or woman completely satisfied with the marked improvement in health—your dream is achieved.

ANTIOCH CHOIR IS NOT TAKING PART IN CHOIR CONTEST We wish our many friends to know that the Antioch Baptist Church choir will not appear in the choir contest at St. Houston Hall, August 10.

So, a plan might suggest, in practice the choir would be an opportunity to put into practice some of the theories concerning how an institution would be conducted The entire church program for an entire week was turned over into the organization. Each auxiliary, and every department was headed up by a new leader. The group gave each carte blanche to arrange their own program, participants and moderators. The group was on Sunday, and on invitation, the pastor, Rev. E. L. Harrison, preached sermon, aimed directly at the young folks, urging them to redelegate their lives and talents to the service. In the opinion of the writer, the week's activities on the part of the young people have given the older people the opportunity to church and those who have long wandered over the inactivity of the youths in the church to get an insight into what is needed to bind with cords of steel, church and thereby and untold strength to the institution, as well as save thousands of mothers and fathers who are overlying what they consider a wanted life on the part of their non-moreover, it is our opinion that last week's plan might be profitable used offence than once a year, and the HIGH STANDARDS AND WILEY HIGH STANDARDS AND A RIGOROUS PACE WILEY COLLEGE MARSHALL, TEXAS A conditional gift of $20,000 for Wiley in forefront of Southern col- Additional appropriation for str Discontinuance of high school d Degree teacher to head Department Business Course, including Sho- sing, strengthened for the next six Music department will be under the du Quartette and chorus work will re Extra-curricular activities, incl culse due emphasis.

Menns, Ga.—(ANP)-Robert Latham, editor of the Abeville School, and winner of the Pulitzer journalism prize in 1924, warned the white folks of Georgia that any bot from the Southern Relation would be "reappearance of the Negro as a formidable factor at the polls of this state." Spanking at the opening of the Institute of Public Affairs and International Relations for forty years, the Southern editor pointed out that the South's chief political objective for "forty years" was "elimination of the Negro from politics." Southern white people "he said, "assume that the machinery which was established for the elimination of the Negro from politics had been the fact that it is a large proportion of Southern men which they are the testers." "I am not trying to raise a political bugaboo," continued the speaker, "but I am trying to raise a possible bolt of the Democratic ticket, it is a phase of the situation." "If any considerable number of Negroes are encouraged to re-enter politics in his area, it will be a stay and will be followed by others.

Let the reader comment on good a prophet I am. I wish it to be distinctly understood that I am not interested in the victim. I am not even criticizing them. My sole purpose is to set forth a serious situation of which these journalists are the victims. A newspaper is in print what the people will read. If the publication wants readers it must print what the readers want. The newspaper is published, not to let it happen. The newspaper to the public are never falling sources of popular interest. The manifestation of evil is never falling sources of popular interest.

I have read the wishing to inform myself upon the conditions of the Negro world, and should have placed in my hands last week's edition of the books I should have read about the would be trained to contend to this be a fair picture of their race. This is indeed. The only effect that this sort of thing can have upon fair-minded people is very much the negro and to dispose them to have as little do with The newspaper is the voice of the people for whom it speaks. It gives voice to the people. Any nation expresses its inner soul to the outside world in its newspapers, magazines and periodicals. It also photographs of the national psyche. And so the Negro journals of last week portray the Negro soul to the world. Each recurrent week, Little wonder then that the Negro is gradually gaining more influence since the Negro newspaper has gained greater influence over the mind, imagination and conduct of the people. The white world the Negro pulm makes All right—now you ask one. Since the dawn of time, man has tried in a thousand and one ways to prove that he is a civilized man. Even the prehistoric awake and save dwellers recognized its value. They realized that natural viper permitted them to attack the oath, which all righteous physicians swear to honor and obey, men of all nations knurred their furrowed oath, which all righteous laria, yellow fever, diphtheria, rabies, should decorate the body, we should attempt to decorate the body. On the other hand, if disease does not finish a victim, it has a disagreeable effect on him, an entry in the red ink column of the ledger of life. He is unlike an adult, the three flat shoes, the clutch slipping. The thing goes on, to be sure, who envies those taking the journey? Many human beings resemble this decrepit motor an attack of a man, measles, typhoid, pneumonia, who envies those taking the journey, gated to the six feet of ground albeit to all men put along like a slave, who envies those taking the day when they awake and dread the deathly silence of endless night. 'Dems' Aid Hoover 'Dems' Aid Hoover BY WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press) Evidently there was somebody in the Democratic National Convention who wanted to insure the defeat of Robert Browder and therefore nominated Robinion of Arkansas, on Smith's ticket, vice-presidential candidate. Robinion makes it utterly impossible for any candidate to win the vote to vote for the Democratic presidential ticket—and even makes it impossible for many liberal white candidates to win the vote to vote for the Democratic nominee that colored people do not deserve the consideration of ordinance.

CHASE For The Associated Negro Press The Baptist World Alliance, organizing in London, England, in 1955, and in New York, in 1960, markable religious gatherings ever held in the western world. The availabilities of the alliance are six nations being represented. The theme of the meeting was "Human Rights and the Constitution of the alliance was held in Sweden. Owing to the illness of the president, Dr. Edgar Young Mullins of Louisville, Kentucky, the meeting was held in New York. The meeting was one of the leading Baptist clergy meetings of Texas. The session was held baily throughout all the meetings. Music was an important feature. At the point, much emphasis was had in question "regeneration" in a segregated record as favoring working for it, record as favoring working for it, note that white Christian admits that they were retarding the gospel of Christ but not overcoming racial Five Negroes Took Part - Race Preludice in the Church Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the National Baptist Convention, Inc., has been a longtime alliance, his address being based on race prejudice and the contribution of the Negro to civilization. Among his accomplishments, Negro has been favored with a peculiar genius, which deserves a close, personal attention and strong just race consciousness in Negro and Nation Worshipping White Folk BY DRUSILLA DUNEE HOUSTON (For The Associated Negro Press) The teachings of white literature, that we are an inferior race, and the fact that we have so late in race life developed literature to offset that calamity, are the race of an inferiority complex. We do not actually worship the people. They are totally unprepared to receive the truth that ours were great in the hair straightening that is so popular. Some follow this fashion and others who definitely prefer to look like white people. We are it high time that we were aware these types in of which they were unconcerned. We are greatly shortening their lives by enambling to look like white folks. These do not know how to understand the motives of health. We have other types who have their way of getting as far as possible out of the race. Do you not understand the motives of our own hearts? If we would progress as a race, we must study motives as indis my people and call, the attention of the other races of he world to the battle of the earth, and to the struggle. We bear too much of vice and crime in connection with Negroes and not enough of his virtue. Dr. Williams continued to say that although it was not generally known, Negroes were in America before Colonel Cortex when he conquered Mexico. The Negro has entered into Mexico, and his characteristic spirit is the cratic spirit of the world today, but his dominant characteristic is his religion, and I would agree with Dr. Williams that the race best suited to Christianity. The Negro has a simple faith in God and the will of God. With his simple faith in God and his fellowmen, he might well be called the conscience of Johnson Speaks on Racialism What the press and public consider a noteworthy address that was made by Dr. Mordeciwal W. Johnson, the president of the attended sessions of the entire meeting by Dr. Mordeciwal W. Johnson, the president of the university, Dr. Johnson is of the opinion that world's greatest tragedy is "regeneration of professed Christian of the world" whose spiritual adventure comes as a bugle call at this time to the chili cook. The "last charge 1 make is against racialism," Dr. Johnson, which he said had much to do with the mission of the church today, and has produced a form of segregated Christianity. "It is no longer safe," declared Johnson, "with African Africa and China. The time has come for the church to bring the people against racialism and all other antiChristian agencies that are militating against the spread of the race." Others on the Program Aside from the addresses of Mrs. W. Maynay, Dr. Johnson and Dr. Wayne, the program were Dr. James E. Eastman, Dr. John C. Carry, who gave a historic account of the activities of Lott Carey, showing that he was as long as white people have: John Hope, who received the degree of doctor of laws at McMater University, who received the degree of education of other races, who received and much commented upon. Numbers of Negroes were in attendance, which went on record as having been the most successful of any previously held. rules. Given an equal chance, the darker woman always holds her own. The woman who received them, but because of this inferiority complex, the married woman We cannot be a happy race or a wise one, but we must question all questions that may belong to either the light or dark race in its true status. We cannot believe that I may think fairly and accurately. We want our children to see the black race in its true status. We want to believe that the white race. We want to admire and follow five hundred years of that until 1728 a slave was backward; that rose to its wealth, prominence and power by the slave trade. A race dosed today for its wealth, exploitation of peacable blacks. BY WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press) In Colege the authorities cancel a welcome to the German and Irish trans-Atlantic Ryers because the Ryers had paid a visit to the school principal refused to let a girl graduate with her class because the girl had on a colored_dress while he wanted her to have a white dress. The school principal acted of insanity to it. It seems that the "republican" Colege in Colege mentally ancient that they still believe that the "killer" Colege in Colege mentally ancient that this school principal in Milwaukee is so small a school should know no right to dictate the dress of its pupils, except to the ends of more decree. The killer is then to lay a lawr on Wilson's tomb or to lay a colored dress is certainly just as decent and moral as is Vinson Hindenburg in now president of Germany.

The girl's mother, who had bought and made a perfectly good dress, a month ago, said that she would not be compelled to go to the expense of a new dress, on notice received two days before the graduation, but she said a school principal have better ideas about a girl's dress than that she can hardly boast of being a "civilized person," if these two exhibitions of harboring mind are typical.

PRESTON 1243-7560 HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JULY 28, 1928 "SOLID SOUTH" AND GOVERNOR SMITH! As a compensation for its sectional solidarity and partisan solidity for the past sixty or seventy years, the "solid South" now faces one of the most trying ordeals in its political history; for the nomination of Governor Alfred E. Smith of New York, as presidential standard-bearer of the donkey party, places Date Democrats of protestant faiths and dry leanings in a rather embarrassing dry, advocating protestant, deceiving and denouncing Catholicism, anathematizing and castigating Tammany Hall and "Tiger rule," the Southern Democrats must either vote for a presidential candidate with whom they have nothing in common, or support the Republican nominee or go "fishing" or "hunting" on general election day. To indicate what he thinks about the dry and protestant Democrat South, Governor Alfred selected a死, Cafhel, erat while he head the national Democratic organization, and both the presidential candidate and his campaign manager have openly and publicly stated that they favor either the modification or repeal of the prohibition (dry) amendment, the identical national constitutional provision which the Democratic South professes to love and espouse with a devotion to fanaticism. Of the loyal Democrats who say they are going to stand by the party regardless of the views and intentions of the presidential candidate, and who on the other hand are denouncing and condemning fellow-Democrats for "bolting" the party for a "Negro-loving Republican," seem to be unmindful of the fact that National Democratic Chairman Raskob has been a Republican in good faith and standing for several years, holding membership in the Union League Club of Philadelphia, the orthodox Jew's organization, and a club which only admits true and tried Republicans into its membership轮. These Democratic "bolsters," if they find themselves voting for a Republican presidential candidate, can solace themselves in the fact that their partisan colleagues are being directed, nationally, by a Republican, who has recently admitted that he still holds membership in an exclusive Republican organization in Philadelphia. The irony of the situation is that both factions of Democrats will be following and supporting a Republican, one bloc directly and the other group indirectly. Moreover, if Governor Smith has the partisan and constitutional right to "bolt" the party platform, and to go outside of the party for a chairman (director) of the Democratic national committee, haven't the Dixie Democrats the same right to "bolt" the party for a chairman (director) of the Democratic national committee with the liquor and constitution-nullifying interests? Some of the stand-pat, bourbon Democrats are charging that Mr. Hoover's election to the presidency of the republic will bring about "social equality" in this country, and that Governor Smith's elevation to the post will save and safeguard "white supremacy"; yet the Gotham governor is considered as much an officer as that the "solid South" social elite. Hoover has been a candidate for public office repeatedly where he sought and catered to the colored electors of the Empire State, while Mr. Hoover has never been a candidate for public office prior to this presidential campaign. The Informer fears that the "solid South" will ultimately discover to its partisan sorrow and sectional regret that Governor Smith has been a candidate for institutional views, but also in his racial, economic and other views. Governor Smith represents a new type of Democratic candidate, unlike the average office seeker of the party in the South who rides into and remains in public office by his advocacy of measures and its preachment of doctrines and espousal of the appeal of appeals and prejudices of the deluded masses of the Democratic party. There is as much difference between Governor Smith's brand of democracy and that of the South, as there is between day and night; and even Southern Democrats, who do not possess the courage and fortitude to desert the presidential nominee of their party, must admit that this statement is essentially true and correct. The "solid South" is wired (at least orally), while Governor Smith is the wettest of the wets. The "solid South" is fundamentally and elementally protestant, while Governor Smith is an ardent Catholic communicant. The "solid South" is given to religious intolerance, bigotry and class distinctions, while the Democratic presidential nominee is an avowed advocate of religious tolerance, liberality and equality. The "solid South" favors the enforcement of the eighteenth constitutional amendment, while overriding, nullifying and ignoring the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth and nineteenth amendments to the same constitution; while Candidate Smith advocates the modification or repeal of the eighteenth constitutional amendment, and the strict observance and enforcement of the thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth and nineteenth amendments to the national constitution. The "solid South" believes that there is nothing good in the Republican party, while Governor Smith holds to the belief that the Republican party has such good men in it that he entered its ranks and conscripted a Republican to direct his national campaign. The "solid South" is a bitter foe of Tammany Hall and denounces it in no uncertain tone, while Nomine Smith is a Tammany protege and takes delight in admitting the fact and extolling the famed "Tiger" political organization. The national Democratic leaders, at the recent Houston convention, showed what they think and care about the "solid South," when they nominated Governor Smith on the first ballot, despite the fact that the "solid South" was wildly and madly engaged in the partisan game of supporting "favorite sons" and "kicking leaders." If the "solid South"'s solidity had not been so pronounced over six or seven decades, it is more than likely that the party leaders would not have ignored this section as they did; and even at the The Houston Informer America's Greatest Weekly Newspaper recent national convention, the South, in the nomination of Senator Joseph T. Robinson, United States senator from Arkansas, was given the first consideration of any major type since the inception of the national party in 1880; and many political wiseresses regarded this host of more political squares to gesture to hold the dry and protestant South in line with the wet and Catholic presidential nominee. Holding to such divergent views, the dry, protestant, "solid South" is certainly going to find it embarrassing and humiliating in the face of the equal accommodation equal training for the Catholic and protege of Tammany Hall! (Let us wray!) THE M (Continued For rights of colored states of confederation and the state stature of the United States) SOUTH'S IDEA OF "GOOD NEGRO" Since so many Southern white people and publications contend that the South is the best place for the Negro, and that the Southern white man is the Negro's best friend—often citing isolated instances of an unusual the existing between some old Negroes and some new Negroes—the Informer is anxious to know what constitutes a "good Negro," in the Dixie acceptance of the term. Two aged Negroes died in Houston recently, and their funerals were virtually conducted by white people, with white pall bearers, ministers and mourners, while one of the Negroes was even buried in a white cemetery. The referred to in eulogies as a "good Negro," and held up as examples to other members of the colored race to emulate; yet neither of the deceased men had ever done anything except to serve in the menial and underling role for the dominant race. The average white Southerner's conception of a "good Negro" seems to be one who is "fateful and loyal" to a certain white family; one who is perfectly satisfied with the huskings and cremains of the dead; and one who is not so interested except to serve in the menial and underling role for the dominant race. It is the type rather than the color of the Negro which precipitates the so-called "race problem" in the South; for as long as the black man serves in the role of servant or employee, Southern whites register no objections to such Negroes riding in Pullmans, eating in diners, and enjoying other privileges of the preferred class, even to be funeralized at white churches and interbedded in cemeteries when the Grim Reaper ends their earthly caverns. If a Negro servant, traveling through a Southern state in a Pullman car with his white employer, receives the news that oil has been struck on his land and that he is now a wealthy Negro, immediately that Negro becomes a "problem" to the whites riding in the same coach, and he, forthwith, becomes person nonwhite. His life is marked by the acquiring riches, this same black is perfectly agreeable to all the Nordic passengers! An aged Negro drummer was buried here a few weeks ago and colored people could hardly attend the funeral because of the large number of white mourners present, who extolled and lauded the decedent to the skies, doing so to such an extent that the Negroes present feared that they had the wrong man in the casket! This deceased black drummer was not a bad man, by any means, but a friend of the black community, and he pears that the high rating given and unusual honors accorded him at his funeral were because of the role in which he had served the white people, rather than because of any worthwhile contributions he had made to his race, city and social fabric. Even the daily newspapers "played up" his death and funeral, yet when some outstanding Negro passes away, no mention is made of his death in these same white papers, and no white people are mentioned in communication of his beneficial and exemplary life lived in the community. What, then, constitutes a "good Negro?" Is his "goodness" determined by his ability to fool the white people and live by his wits at their expense; to serve willingly as lackey; to keep the white people informed about the members of the black race; to perpetuate the institution of master and slave; to serve as go-between for white men and colored women; by his own efforts to maintain a wholly and solely upon the white people for charity and alms? If such a black man is the South's idea of a "good Negro," how will this section classify the black man who acquires property, has some regard for honesty, integrity, industry, thrift; educates his children; pays his honest debts; supports the state by the payment of taxes; seeks to fulfill the full duty of citizenship and becomes an asset rather than a liability to the state and society? We have known many Negroes, whom the white South regarded as "good Negroes" and pointed to with pride, who were held in disfavor and disrepute by members of their own race and viewed with alarm by those who knew them most intimately. And as to what constituted a "good Negro," and as to which race is better qualified to render such appraisal and give such rating. Selah! COURTS AIDING DEMOCRATIC PARTY The decision of a Texas court of civil appeals, which held that a candidate for public office in a state primary election, who had announced that he would not support the presidential nominee of the Democratic candidate for the primary election, or expressed in another manner, that he could not resort to court action to force county executive committees to place his name on the ballot in the county, was rather a surprising and startling opinion. He was given recently when Thomas B. Love of Dallas, candidate for lieutenant governor in the Democratic party primary election, Saturday, July 28, appealed his case from the district court of Cameron County, when the district judge upheld the action of the chairman of the county executive committee in omitting Mr. Love's name from the official ballot. The court ruled that the nominee, has repeatedly stated that he will not support and vote for Governor Alfred E. Smith, Democratic presidential nominee, and his Democratic colleagues accuse him of partisan infidelity and violation of the party pledge, to wit: "To support the nominee of this primary." Far be it from informing to attempt to set itself above the county, the court ruled that the nominee is not a nominee of the July primary election in Texas. As a matter of fact, Texas has no primary election to commit the voters to presidential nominees, and all political parties in this state elect delegates to various conventions, beginning with the primary election, where there are presidential candidates are chosen in the latter conventions. The Democratic national standard-bearer was nominated in Houston during June, fully one month in advance of the regular Texas primary election (Democratic), and the announcement by the Democratic nominee, Ted Cruz, for Nominee Smith, who is not a nominee of "this primary," does not disqualify him or her for the Texas race, in The Informer's opinion, the appellate court to the contrary notwithstanding. The Texas election laws can only be binding on candidates for the primary election, and the state primary elections, and was never even contemplated to outlaw and disqualify any candidate or elector who might decide to "bolt" the national candidate of the party. It is the duty of judges and courts to rule on law and not attempt to disqualify someone from the status of free citizens to the role of partisan puppets. THE MIRROR (Continued From Page One) rights of colored passengers on the railroads of Texas, and for the right enforcement and strict observance of the laws of the state upon the railroads to provide equal accommodations on all passages for the white and colored races. While the Democratics of Texas are busy with their primary election Saturday, July 28, the Republicans of Texas are busy with their primary election, where the voters of the precincts will elect delegates to county seats held Saturday, August 4. Also at the precinct conventions Saturday, July 28, they will indicate their preference for county seats held Saturday, where they are elected at the county convention the following Saturday. The conventions of all Republican electors should attend these parliaments and help elect delegates to county seats, men who ring true on the constitution of republicanism and Americanism. Where no previous call has been issued for prescript conventions, the legislature must elect a chairman and secretary, elect a president, elect delegates to county convention, instruct their prescript for convention, instruct their prescript for the next two prescript chairmen for the next two prescript laws of Texas provide that all political parties, polling less than 100,000 votes, must elect a president, last preceding election for governor, may hold either a primary election or a general election more than 100,000 votes in such election, must conduct primary election. As far as the Mirror has been able to ascertain, there seems to be no opposition to the present Harris administration, Morris, who has done much during 1928 to remile the warfactions of the party to build up a strong and virulent party to govern in county, and his re-election seems to occupy the office for the next biennium. Attend the Republican prescript conventions, Saturday, July 28, and Sunday, July 29, both as a citizen and partisan. PRIMARY SUIT- (Continued From Page One) could be granted, and the supreme court could not pass upon the matter. Nergess generally escaped disappointment with the decision of Judge Hutchins, she they judge, that no political candidate would be American citizens because of color, creed or previous condition of immigration. The United States Supreme Court had held, in Pascale, that the Democratic party from Pascale, that the Democratic party in Texas is tantamount to and alleges that the right to vote to Negress of the right to vote such elections was an invasion of and unconstitutional upon their constitutional rights. Erana Ably Presents Case In the hearing last Friday, After- cident and cled two supreme court de- tions to support his contention that he should reject the direct violation of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the con- titution, Judge Hutchison asked the oppo- ning counsel to give him a memorial presentation, and the judge, on the law, and he would take the case under adjudication and then Mon- teau DeWalt the prayed for injunction.

If they have long since been erased or nullified, the Constitution causes a long succession of Republican restoration, in full control of the democracy, and has silenced all his silenced in these violations.

OPINIONS (Continued From Page One) when they removed to Housen, the court said: "The defendants answer also allege that it in this litigation for plaintiff, was a member of the firm of Wenley and Kearns, and that all of the things charged against those defendants in the matter of procurement of $15,000, and that he was and has acted and that he acted and that thing done in the estate with reference to plaintiff; initiating and abundantly established, and with apprehension to them and approving them." The case coming on for trial, the defendants abundantly established, and if there was fraud as alleged by Chandler himself of it, but presents himself of it, but presents himself in the even more digressive contempt of the contiguous contingent banks of 36% to recover from his co-compatrases the fruits of The court further stated: "In the face of the allegation that defendants defrauded plaintiff by not knowing his knowledge and consent, the evidence affirmatively shows that plaintiffs have been involved in the transaction, and was not compelled to "she will deed it back to me whenever I want it." While as to the money he received, plaintiffs evidence shows that the plaintiff knew of every bit of the money he received, and that he theorized the payment of it, and if there is any action for that money against Lewis, not these defendants. "Upon the main allegations in the case, that defendants had secured an agreement to take legal allegations that his property was in danger of being taken from him by the defendant, and that he had great deal of evidence was offered, and I have reached the deliberate agreement to engage some of the white men who were engaged in activities in that country in connection with the estates of freedmen in that country at the time the agreement was made, and were not overstated or overestimated, were actually existing, and that condition had been satisfied to him and his estate; that he had actually complained of not been taken, plaintiff would have been deceived, and that he have been taken from him, and his property squandered and wasted by the defendant, and that he had complied with Europe, if not without judicial procurement, certainly without judicial jurisdiction, and an effective plan of plaintiff to Europe to avoid this extrapolation, while fantastic and dramatic and an effective plan of "I find that the conditions existing after the retirement of the officer in 1952, so well and healthy, were actively existing at the time of the transactions made the subject of the investigation.
