The action of the mob was a sufficient disgrace upon the fair name of Miss Houston, but the trend the recent trial took and the admissions made, under oath, both by the indicted lyncher and one of the principal police officers, have brought a stigma upon this city which will remain for countless years. The only possible deterrent for mobocracy is a federal statute bringing lynehing within the purview and jurisdiction of the federal courts, with counties and cities being forced to indemnify the relatives of the lynehed victim; for the average Southern community considers a lynehing nothing more than a sport or frolic. If the indicted men are not guilty perpetrators of this barbaric and disastrously deed, then the guilty culprits should be apprehended and convicted; and this community should not rest until the entire band is behind prison walls, for the present status of the "fiasco" discredites and disgraces Houston before the civilized world. More anon. Some of our Dixie Democratic papers and politicians are exceedingly "wrought up" because some Republican party leaders of the South have been accused of making appeals for support of Nominee Herbert Hoover on the ground of Governor Smith's religion. While The Informer is unalterably opposed to fighting any man because of creed, color or class, this paper observes that when the shoe gets on the other fellow's foot and begins to pitch and hurt, he emits a terrific It is all right for Dixie Democrats to oppose Mr. Hoover on the “Negro issue” and to refer to him as an advocate of “social equality” and “Negro demonstration,” but the “negro问题” should be taken into account. The “religious issue,” our Democratic leaders demand a severe reprimand for such Republicans and their summary dismissal where they occupy an important party post. “We admit that some of the Republican orators and partisans are rather vitriolic and bitter in their attacks upon Nominee Smith, but what about the assaults and “whispering campaign” being conducted by a large number of Democrats against the Republican? Nominee Hoover? While two wrongs never make a right, in the paraphrased language of Brer Eatmore on “Throwing Stones,” as delivered by the lamented Bert Weisman, “Theถนนนี” is a must-musing: “When you Democrats start throwing rocks at us and our candidate, we are going to throw ’em back at you; and when we start throwing rocks we shall miss nobody—no, even the wet and Catholic Al-Shithl.” It really is laughable to behold the Dixie Democrats denouncing and excoriating Nominee Hoover on the “color question,” and then crying like a “color question,” that “is the feeling attacked and opposed on the “religious creed issue.” Consistency, thou art indeed a rare and priceless jewel. * In last week's issue of the Dallas Express, Prof. John W.

AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1928 NATIONAL REPUBLICAN LEADERS ACT IN TEXAS SITUATION? (EDITORIAL) With the apparent intention on the part of Texas Republican leaders of America, the party has been led by an insignificant group of individuals who are in the process of an uphold of the new generalism that are negroes and their activity for the Hoover-Curtis ticket, almost all come to Hoover's interests. The first, first-time, in-Tennessee state Republican administration of the forestry system of the states for the presidency, wonders if the Colored Voters' Division, directed by John E. Hawkins of Washington, D. C.—with such able advisers as Emmett Jay Jr., the party's D.C. and the D.C. of the party's Republican leaders of Chicago, Albon L. Holsey, of Alabama, Roscoe C. Simmons, of Chicago, Benjamin J. Davis of Georgia, Homer G. Phillips of St. Louis, and other party leaders. The party has been in large bloc of votes to go by default in the impending presidential election. While the Informer is fully aware of the policy pursued by the Republican national committee of not "dabbing" into party politics in the several years, the party has been in the state, this paper would if the national party leaders would adopt this "hands off" policy in a pivotal or determinative state, if the same status obtained as now exists in Texas. The party has published a note of the state of Dallas, one of the Hoover-Democratic leaders in Texas, stated that fully 250,000 Democrats would desert the party standard in this state and cast their ballots for the Hoover-Curtis to be the party's Republican in the state will convince the most skeptical that Texas is a real battle-ground as far as the 1923 presidential race is concerned.

Of course, due allowance must be made for the large number of Democrats who are being unable to stand either Governor Smith or Mr. Hoover, and it is not possible to show that they are not in the case of an individual or for the first time. The results of the ticket. The results of the election. Democratic majority in this state and tend to be reduced to the point where 75,000 to 100,000 votes will determine the presidential result in what has previously been regarded and considered as the "banner Democratic state of the union." THE SMITH DEMOCRATIC LEADERS IN THE STATE HAVE BECOME ALARMED AND FRANTIC AND ARE CONDUCTING THEIR TRADITIONAL CAMPAIGN OF APPEALING TO THE RACE HATRED ARENCE OF WHITE, CHITZERS, TO STAND BY THE DEMOCRATIC RESIDENTIAL NOMINATORY, EVER since the 1923 BY INFERENCE, THAT PARTY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN COUNTRY, AND THAT A MAN'S FIRST DUTY IS TO HIS PARTY. RATHER THAN THE HOME AND HIS COUNTRY, AS WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TAUGHT. The Informer is not suggesting that Chirman Work attempt to convert the Republican Party to the Democratic Party or probable), but this paper is unable to discuss where any objection could be raised by partisan leaders in Texas to the Colored Democrats' Division lending tangible and definite assistance to the colored Republicans of this state. The information provided will tell voting strength of the group at the election Tuesday, November 6, 1928. It was or is our understanding that the purpose of this organization is to give information to the colored Republicans in all sections of the country, being national both in scope and activity. Furthermore, if the Colored Democrats' Division does not have plenary power in such partisan situations, where their activity could not, by any stretch, be used to influence the race division, it is likely to know what functions the race division possesses and just what its real status is. THE RESPECTFUL POLICY OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN TEXAS OF EXCLUDING AND OSTACRING THE THOUSANDS OF COLored VOTERS HAS THE OFFICIAL STAMP OF APPROVAL OF CANDIDATE HAWKINS AND OTHER NATIONAL PARTY LEADERS OF both the INFORMER and 100,000 OR MORE NEGOTIERS OF TEXAS WOULD LIKE TO BE SO INFORMED BEFORE THE GENERAL ELECTOR. It is utterly fair and stipulation to sit lily by and expect the dissatisfied and disgruntled Hoover-Democrats to "carry" Texas for the Republican presidency. Hoover-Democrats are sitting the world that they are only supporting the Republican presidential candidate the least bit concerned in building up a Republican state, district or county.

He is the editor also of the Crisis, or, as a general, a series of the society and notorious fortunes of its offensive editorial matter about the white people of the Southern states. "The association has a board of directors on which are prominent whites and prominent Negroes. Among the directors is Senator Charles Curtis, Mr. Hoover's running mate."

SMALLWOOD CAPITOL 2746 BY DANIEL W. CHASE (For the Association Negro Press) When the Department of the Interior submitted the report of its bureau education last spring, it was gleaned among American Indians were rather desperate*.* The recent report states that the Negro has already caused much comment, and it is likely to prey on the Negro who meets. One writer has already remarked, writing from Washington, "Politicians here are especially interested in efforts of both parties in the presidential campaign to increase the number they may determine the election in close Northern cities and in doubtful From an educational point of view, the survey points out that there are more Negro children, and this is commented on in the summary, that "National Negro professional and technical training of many more Negro professionals and technical leaders." A writer in a local paper reported that delivery delivered to a group of workers, a white speaker and that said there are too many Negro students. And yet this survey, made by prominent educators and government executives, denists, stating that the disparity of trained race leaders is, of course, unstated. It is stated that there are only 3,000 Negro physicians and surgeons in the United States, or approximately one percent of the population, while it is shown that there is one one white physician to SSP per thousand. BY WILLIAM PICKENS (For the Associated Negro Press) The basis of cooperating in common interest. Members of ant colonies and bee colonies work together on the same goal of preserving life against elements and in preserving their race. Every community of interest, therefore, between West Indian and American colonies, completes an important aid. We are thinking especially that live in the United States. If the interests of two groups were mutual antagonism, hatred, and an unstintedistic, that fact would furnish at least an understandable cause for their mutual antagonism, hatred, and the same thing, a definite and limitless cooperation, to share it in some way together, there will, of course, be warfare between those two groups, which could prevent war. But there is no such limited and definite thing lying "in no man's land" between American and West Indian Negroes. They have nothing to take from each other; they have everything to take from the opposition—the opposing circumstances, conditions, prejudices, traditions, and from the opposition of other groups who, because of segregation, cannot knew and understand them. The struggle against these handles is one undivided and indivisible interest for American and West Indian Negroes in the United States. It is notorious that prejudice of other races distinguishes between West Indian Negroes and American Negroes in segregation movements the segregationist never says "West Indian Negroes" or "native-American Negroes"; but he says simply: "We exclude Negroes!" In such a situation these two groups have a reason for cooperation, a cause for friendship and a cause belli. In the United States of America the same thing is true with every other important interest of these two groups: What is against one is against the other also. The enemy of the one is the other's enemy. There can be victory but a common voiceह्ंत. The only sensible strife between these two peoples, therefore should be a friendly strife, a sort of rivalry of efforts to achieve this victory for all. How, then, has the queer notion ever arisen that there is some natural or unavoidable cause for antagonism between West Indian and American Negroes? Some say that the fault is in the clannishness of the West Indian Negro; that he segregates survey, is worse with reference to the need for one dentist to each of us to every 10,500 Negro infants. **Safefering Health Dire Need.** The survey of the opinion is of the importance of teaching people and of their neighbors, to instruct them in hygiene, sanitation, and to prevent the spread of off disease and care for those that fall ill, are as essential as intellectual development. More and Better Education Negro teachers are reported in the survey as being deficient in proper training, many not having received more than elementary school preparation, while equal as large a number has only received one or two years in an accredited high school. According to the survey, the Negro need training in the fields of agriculture, mechanical arts and crafts, the survey stating that "while 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 or more are employed in ordinary farm labor." Fifty-six thousand Negroes are skilled craftsmen, as compared with 1,371,000 who are pursuing unskilled occupations, or who are employed as day laborers. If the survey is to be taken as a basis of fact, there are in the United States only fifty Negro architects, 184 engineers, 145 designers, draftsmen and inventors, and 207 chemists. The preaching professions sufferers, as there are only ten graduates a year from the theological schools. The report is interesting throughout, and although it calls attention to the accomplishments of the race in general, which accomplishments have been exceptional, the report states that "the immediate need of the race is more education, better education." himself and assumes a distinction or difference from the American. But let us consider the situation of people who migrate from their own homes and enrolments to the home land; it is but natural that a little group of people so situated will feel an increased dependence upon each other, and in the strange land will be the only person who is in the time of change, even than they felt at home. What is called clannishness in the West Indian, is perhaps to be expected in any group so situated; a small group of people are in the same way as the American or Jamaica would show the same reaction. It has been noticed that West Indian groups who were not especially friendly to each other would be more friendly will "signify" for each other in New York. That is commendable rather than otherwise. Some that did not even know each other in their own lands. But if the group of people are in the area, like the Bermudas, the Bahamas, Jamaica, and Trinidad, will in America feel nevertheless a common interest and a solid ship to the west where we all lumped together as "those" West Indians. This very conditional unity of various West Indian groups is in itself encouraging and disclaiming in this editorial: That cooperation does not depend upon common origin but upon community of interest. The same principle should be used to support and support West Indian groups in a common struggle against the almost universal barriers erected by greed and ignorance against their land. And in epithet the same relationship is the cause of it) such a cooperation of Negro groups in America is bound to come; for nothing is more reasonable to the end where certain, than that to the ultimate attack will be going indiscriminate defense. Others say that the fault lies in the American Negro's attitude, which is often marked by insignificance, is likely to be tinged with a show of prejudice against the "for-ground" advantages which the native element usually has, as a start at least, over the immigrant. This, too, is natural and unavoidable, and we condemned. We all act like that until we think, and importantly many of us think, that the native element we think, we see clearly that it makes no difference in this western hemisphere or where it is where he is from or where it is not yet have the same cause of battle in the world, in place in the western world therefore, Negroes are compatriots, of one cause if not one country. Group-conscious pride in the brave little West Indian groups is executable.

I was born in South Carolina, and for that little fact I have always felt an extra interest in the many eminent South Carolinians whom I have met. Group pride can exist without malice, without jealousy or envy or mean strife; because I am especially proud when a black South Carolinian achieves honor and success, I am not therefore without pride when any other Negro is fortunate and honored, be he from Mississippi, Massachusetts or Trinidad. When we THINK, the family circle widens. We are all one.

Use your sterling silver as often as possible, it is solid, therefore, it do not melt if its surface be finished of old silver which you see in museums, and which is comparable to the patina of fine old furniture. Your flat silver will tarnish less if it is finished in a silver water room drawer which is well brushed out from time to time. Your flat silver will tarnish water, rinse through in silver water, and wipe with an absorbent wipe. Constant use and washing keep tarnish at a minimum. A soft cloth moistened with a clearing liquid or patina will keep the tarnish rubbing. Polish to restore brightness to the tarnish and handle it does need polishing. On a hard surface on special occasions a quick rubbing compound restores a pleasing brilliancy and lustre. Solid silver hollow ware that is used every day for drying fruits, nuts, fruits, often needs only daily wiping with a damp cloth, and washing in hot soaps. Washing in ice water when the dish is clean. Always be sure to use very soft cloth for washing.

He was closing the benediction by saying, "And now may the love of God rest and shade with you all forever," when he topped over in the church the benediction to complete the benediction. The congregation waited in vain for the annual "Amen." Rev. Kirby died immediately. The coroner announced that he died from heart failure.

"Chocolate Baby") The Illustrated Few Beginning the First FLORIDA STORM AREA PREPARES TO BUILD AGAIN By MRS. MARY MCELDEN BETHEUH (For The Associated Negro Press) West Palm Beach, Fla. -Arriving again in the section where the recent attack on the police resulted in suffering and death in its wake, I found that first aid had been successfully administered to the storm sufferer. Memorial services for the dead were held in the white and colored cemeteries of St. Mary's and St. O'clock Sunday—the most impressive ever witnessed by the thousands of tomb-men to the sight of the one large mound containing the hundreds of bodies of men, women, and children of the war-tainted chewers, wringing their tear-stained cheeks, wringing their entire families, or many, many more of their families had been taken. The audience of this scene fell upon the heart-reading. Thousands of people came into West Palm Beach to pay their respects to the heroes who gave up their lives in the turbulent water of the everglades, to the white cemetery and a part to the colored cemetery. City officials to the white cemetery and a part to the colored cemetery. The ceremony for the Negro victims was presided over by Dr. J. H. Thompson, assisted by the Rev. James C. McCarthy and Negro women placed wreaths of flowers upon the tombs of the unknown. Thousands, whose bodies had to be cremated where they fell, and those whose bodies have not yet been delivered from their watery graves, were tenderly and sorrowfully included in the memorial services. Such a service has never been witnessed in the state before. Many have been taken, but we are bowing in submission to the will of our Father, who does all things well. The spirit of self-help is evident all over the stricken areas. At Jupiter, a Mrs. Ashley, a colored school teacher who has given wonderful service to her people, gave valuable help in the recent catastrophe. The schoolhouse where she taught was destroyed, and her own house and furniture swept away. In this little town also a Mr. Harvey Boker, a truck grower, although he had his packing house swept away, and his own house moved from its pillars, housed and fed some twenty-five of his less fortunate neigh-bors, nine of whom were sick or injured. It is generally felt that the most important building in Kelong City, the survivors from the storm there were, first, at housed in bus cars, but were never able to move. The shanties at Indian Lumber Company. In most instances the "shanties" were not built, but they were once closed and practically crushed, did not furnish them with work, and they have no funds to build the house. The water which in being used in the city is not in the house, has been instead to boil it, but, in many instances they have no facilities to shelter them.

I understand justice and the very finest cooperative spirit being exercised in the handling of the situation up to this We are asking that all colored people, organizations, clubs, etc., shall send in any cash contribution to Dr. J. H. Terrell, 410 North Rosemary Road, San Diego, CA, who will, in turn, turn the money to the treasurer of the National Red Cross, to be distributed among the colored people. We are asking that you chance a chance for a complement of what the Negroes themselves are doing. We are asking that you be the kindness of the general public, to rebuilding the homes and schools we have suffered a serious set-back, and to re-establish our colored women, social workers, and teachers have on our hands to a committee to do special welfare to these refugees—particularly the women as will keep them as happy as possible under the conditions, and, at their future living, strengthen them for their future lives. Too much praise cannot be given our welfare workers, Mrs. Frederick, Mrs. Kilty Taylor, Mrs. P. L. Brown, Mrs. Miss Taylor, Mrs. P. L. Brown, Mrs. Miss Taylor, Miss Meir, and others, for their care and service.

FIRST IN REAL NEWS—PAGE THREE TEST LEGALITY OF AGREEMENT AT WASHINGTON New York City—The brief in a case being brought to test the right of white property owners to segregate colored people and exclude them from residence districts by private agreement, has been received by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue. Louis Marshall, member of the N. A. A. C. P. National legal committee, and Arthur B. Springarn, chairman of the committee, cooperated with the Washington attorneys, Messrs. William E. Leahy, George E. L. Hayes, Ernest J. Davis, and Edmund M. Toland, in preparing the brief which is filed in the court of appeals of the District of Columbia. The case which is to be appealed to the United States Supreme Court in case of adverse decision in the court of appeals, arises out of an attempt by other property owners to restrain Edward G. Russell from conveying a Washington residence plot to Edgar T. Newton, Robert H. Preston and Sarah U. Newton. The brief recites that such white property owners covenants are condemned States, in that they seek to make the courts anathema what the Longevity Court tries to enact. The brief also points out that such covenants as the one that governs the servants of the house typically provide the white owner of any of the houses affected by it, to permit servants of the house to be his premises." The brief also raises the question who is to determine Negro blood or ancestry, and says: "In the potentiality of producing such a chatic condition as would tend to positive public misfortune and give also the possibility of this covenant to be enforced." Under what test is the color line to be used to determine Negro blood and the Caucasian begin? Does it mean that any person who has flowed Negro blood comes within the prohibitions of the covenant? Would Alex. Lewis have been included in the term "Negro" because one of their ancestors flowed Negro blood? How is the protected blood-taint to be acertained? Who shall determine when colored blood changes its color? CHILEANS ADMIRE UNCLE SAM'S JAZZ, SAYS VICE-CONSUL Washington, D. C.

BULLDOGS TUSKEGEE HELD TO 7-7 SCORE BY A. & T. BULLDOGS Greenbear, N. C.-Approximately 7,000 persons, the largest crowd ever to witness a Negro game in this section and probably in the S. South, crowded into Memorial Stadium last night to watch the Tigers battle the famous Tiger eleven from Tungkeen to a 7-6 score. Both teams exhibited a splendid brand of football, displaying aerial attacks and a kicking exhibition just about as amazing as any ever seen on a local field. A. and T. carried the ball deep in to Tungkeen's territory time after time, but penalties and fumbles when they were within scoring distance destroyed their hopes of showing across the field. A. and T. were somewhat brilliant kicking duel between Coleman, the A. and T. triple threat, and Stevenese, the Tungkeen star who downed the field. When actual play was played on the ball was found in their entire distance, the entire distance, but their heavy line and powerful secondary defense held the Tigers in the entire distance, when led by Lane, a smashing, tearing fullback, A. and T. that enabled them to emerge with a tie, the extra point going to them when the Tungkeen eleven was offside. Tuskegee scored shortly after the game started on a neatly executed, pretty pass that caught the A. and T. boys flatfooted. It was a long pass, 28 yards, straight over the line, from Harrison, right half, to Stevenson, the big hard running ace who bore number 73. Stevenson also added the extra point with a perfect placement that sailed squarely between the uprights. For Tuskegee Stevenson and Harrison in the backfield and Brittan and C. Robinson in the line stood out. The work of both of the ends I. Robinson and Duncan, was one of the thrilling features of the game. Both shot down swiftly on the punts and nailed the A. and T. receivers dead in their tracks.

Swapland, famed as one of America's most successful execu- tives, has been a leader in business for 25 years. The president of a large business institution dealing with large numbers of people in matters of buying and selling had a good vantage point from which to observe the habits of individuals and the trends of groups and of organizations. He was able to determine certain terms when he made this statement: "If the present practice of dropping Negro workers and domestic employees in factories, hotels (and like places where the Negro once had almost a monopoly) continues and spreads, it will not take a prophet to tell what the near-at-hand crisis will be. It will be a much more difficult to make much occasion for alarm and hysteria as for an immediate awakening of our employed, a thorough self-examination, and the determination of a workable, sensible program to regain lost ground and more effectively defend the employment opportunities we yet hold. He says it is a two-sided problem, which must be uniting and uncompromisingly pursued for an early solution." and vantage point from ands of groups and of as prophetic in no un- present practice of feminine, harsh and opoply) continues and ar-at-hand crisis will there is not nearly so associate awakening of reparation of a work- re, effectually defend is a two-sided prob- Certainly self-examination will bring out the need and formulate the plan for the race to answer the argument as to whether America owes a debt of moral responsibility to the people of the community can afford to reduce any part of its body politic to economic poverty; and further whether the individual race member has the ability to sell power and raise power on the different plane (where a later generation has its being and its power to take control of the collective race members with consciousness and courage of their convictions and the power of organization to draw up their case in their own hands in the public opinion and market places of the world work and produce.

MANY FEATURES OFFERED RACE AT STATE COLLEGE Prairie View, Texas.—Prairie View State College begins the regular association with promise of being the greatest in its history. As usual a graduate student is required to tend. Principal W. R. Banks, generally regarded as the best college administrator of the race in the South, has picked a very strong faculty, with per cent of the college faculty are graduate students and Western universities, eight (8) holding master degrees, five have supplemented their bachelor degrees with advance study, and approximately 80 teachers with seasonal experience. Among the new members of the faculty are two administrators: Harry W. Green, educated at Lincoln, and Robert W. Green, teachers dean of Huson College, is dean of the college and research of. D. R. Glass, educated at Atlanta and Harvard, formerly president of Arkansas Hygintail Institute. More than any other time since its asplend record of educational service to Texas, Prairie View is being called upon to serve in a very large way. Thirty-two towns and cities are knocking at its door for extension serviced in the city. It is held, of its determination to perform strictly to the standards of the State Department of Education which does not now approve extension centers unless they are conducted in connection with approved junior colleges, or very near the college itself. Prairie View has refused the demands of these cities. One of the finest educational movements ever launched in Texas is Negro education is that of the unique idea of having a senior college of the first rank cooperate with a junior college of the same rank, with the former exerging at the latest course beyond the first two years, making it possible for teachers in the neighborhood of the junior college to earn in time their bachelor degree. Already Prairie View is cooperating with St. Philips, the first-class junior college of San Antonio and with Houston Junior College, recently accredited as of the first class, and the only municipal junior college for Negroes in the world. One other junior college has requested cooperation in its new plan. The school of Intercollegiate cooperation is believed to be calculated to help promote the professional status of Negro teachers.

PRIMARY JOBS—Love in the Real PREMIARY TOPIC—Love Is the Best of AR JEKOR TOPIC—The Greatest Thing In the World. ENTERMEDEATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—The Greatest of all Gifts. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Spiritual Gifts. Just generated a remarkable effusion of the spirit in Messianic times (Joel 2:28, 29; et. Acts 2:17, 18). Refuse the eruitixion, Jesus promised to send the Holy Spirit to be the helper and guide of His people. This was himselfingly fulfilled on the day of Pentecost. The gifts of the Spirit were essential to all eldows. Not only were these endowments marked by great profusion, but by great diversity. In the exerule of these gifts confusion would surely arise. Divine life, suddenly poured into human nature, stifled it to unusual power. In view of the abuses and confusion which are likely to arise from such a condition, it is highly important that certain principles be set forth for guidance and regulation. R. The Inflatible Criterion (1 Cor. II. 22). The infallible test which determines whether gifts are spurious or genuine in one's conception of and attitude to want Jesus Christ. Only those who recognize Him as God manifest in the flesh, His vicarious stonement on the crus, and submit to Him as their Lord, can be recognized as possessing the gift of the Holy Spirit. Christ said before leaving the earth that when the Spirit came His supreme business would be to testify of Him, to take the things of Christ and show them unto the people. The soundness of the faith of a man is the sign of this commendation from God. II. The Diversity of Spiritual Gifts (C. Cor. 12-6-11). In the church there are to be found those possessing the gift of wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, geography, discontent of spirits, diversified and bongues and the interpretation of tongues. III. The Unity of the Spirit's Gifts (C. Cor. 12-12-30). Christian unity is only possible when effected by the one Holy Spirit. This unity amidst diversity is represented under the figure of the human body. 1. The human body has many members, each performing distinct functions for the good of the body (v. 12). 2. The members are mutually related and independent (4v. 12-17). 3. The place of each member is determined by the choice of God (v. 18), which are laying at the foot of the mast and least complacent are most important (vv. 21-23). 4. The Spirit's Best gift (vv. 22-23). 5. The pre-eminence of love (vv. 23). (a) Humanness (b) Sponging with tongue. (c) The gift of prophecy. (d) Faith of the most vigorous kind. (e) Abundance of the most generous soul. (f) Hermic devotion leading to magnificence. (g) The attribute of love (vv. 4-7). (h) Long-suffering and kind.

Our Southern Democrats—those who are supporting the presidential candidacy of Governor Alfred E. Smith of New York—are busy injecting the eternal "Negro issue" into the campaign, and are making base appeals to Dixie Democrats to oppose Nominee Herbert Hoover, Republican presidential nominee, because Mr. Hoover is alleged to have abolished racial segregation in his department at Washington, and because of the Republican party's reputed friendly attitude towards the Negro group. A group of Smith-Democrats held a political rally here a few nights ago and the newspaper accounts of the meeting recounted many interpreter speeches made by certain leading Democrats, touching upon "social equality" and the "Negro question." One speaker, in the heat of his oration, is reported to have said that he would much rather support and vote for a "black Republican" for any office in the country than to vote for any Negro-lowing white Republican;" that Secretary Hoover had Southern white women and girls taking dictations from Negro men, and that Mr. Hoover's election to the presidency would mean "social equality" throughout the republic. Another speaker is reported to have contended that they have as much right to inject the "Negro question" into the presidential campaign as the Republicans have to raise the "religious issue" against Governor Smith, who is a member of the Roman Catholic Church. One of the reasons the South has not only been predicated upon the Negro, but its maintenance and grip on the residents of the Souland is attributable wholly and solely to this fact. How can they consistently, honestly and conscientiously oppose Nominee Hoover because of the abolition of racial segregation in the United States Department of Commerce at the national capital on one hand, and then support Governor Smith on the other, proactive, proactive, and so are well known to every intelligent, reading American citizen. Notwithstanding the fact that the Dixie Democratic demagogues raise the ever-recurrent "Negro issue" every quadrennium, that party has been able to elect only two presidents since 1860, and a schism in the Republican ranks played an important part in making possible such political triumphs. The destiny of this nation should never be entrusted to a two-faced party for any person or party possessed with two factions all the elements of the party, all the big person or party; and the ship of state will certainly drift upon dangerous and destructive shoals with such a partisan pilot at its helm. While preaching themselves hoarse on Nominee Hoover, the Republican party, the "Negro issue" and "social equality." The Informer would like for these Dixie Democrats to give the cause of the Civil War a voice, and to explain plain who has been practicing "social equality" to make possible this shameful and shocking interracial condition, brought about (Signed) $125; single copy, 5c months) OCTOBER 13, 1928 EMENT, CIRCULATION OF AUGUST 24, 1911 weekly at Houston, Tex and county african, pe county knowledge and belief, a treatment, etc., of the HOUSTON INFOUNDATION and the Act Laws and Regulations. and business manager at publishing Co., Inc., Stocke W. Weekey and J. Alat and other security hold ings, mortgages, or other C. R. F. Richardson Editor by illicit and clandestine relations between certain members of the two races! If Negroes are such "beats" and so unworthy of the same considerations accorded other American citizens, why it is next to impossible for a decent-looking colored girl or woman to appear on the streets of the average Southern city without being insulted, accosted or molested by some of our anti-Negro Dixie Democrats of Caucasian lineage? If the Negro is such a cause and pest as so many of our Dixie Democrats lead to believe, why do so many of these same Nordic Southern place Nergos in responsible positions in their homes and businesses? After all is said and done, the Negro the "issue" in the present presidential campaign, or must these Southern partisans resort to such prejudicial and inciting appeals in order to keep the "solid South" in the perennial, asinine role of voting blind and oppressive? With such pre-election propaganda, and with the "solid South" again in the national sledge in event of Governor Smith's and Senator Robinson's election, the plight of the American Negro will be something awful and direful; and The Informer urges that colored voters, both in Texas and other states, should not attend the 6, 1928, and bury the Democratic presidential ticket under such an avalanche of votes that its resurrection and revival will be a political impossibility. IS OSCAR DePRIEST "SCAPE GOAT?" The Chicago-Cooke County special grand jury, which has been making a full and thorough investigation of alleged crime, graft and vice in the Windy City, has returned true bills against two candidates in the city. Mr. DePriest, Republican candidate for congress, succeeding the late Congressman Martin B. Madden, and Daniel M. Jackson, recently named to the Illinois Commerce Commission and recognized Republican leader in the South Side "black belt" of Chicago. Of course, the Informer can not sit in judgement in these cases, but many are already saying that the indictment against Mr. DePriest is a political trick to defeat him in his race for congress; or in the event he is elected, to so stigmatize him that his congressional seat will be contested, with the probability that the post will be denied him. If does not seem possible that Nominee DePriest can clear himself in no position before election day, for it is doubtful if the hearing can be held before the general election, and thus he will face the election under a cloud of suspicion and with a criminal charge hanging over his head. The life of the race politician in 'America, to say the least, seems to be of few days and full of trouble; and while his paper is in no position to deny or affirm the guilt of Mr. DePriest, Jackson, it is to be regretted that events have taken a course. Mr. DePriest states that he is being offered up as a "scap goat," and that he is suffering the same fate which has befallen colored Republican leaders in the South. He states further that he is innocent of the charges and that he has been guilty of his innocence and expose the plot to destroy his political career. SHREVEPORT MAYOR ON DEFENSIVE! According to newspaper reports emanating from Shreveport, La., during the September session of the National Baptist Convention, Unincorporated, the mayor of that city, in publicly welcoming the emancipated "migrants," referred to the race several times in his speech as "niggers." The colored press of the country "played up" the mayor's constant use of this insulting term, and now "his honor" writes to Rev. Henry Allen Boyd of Nashville, Tenn., secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board and one of the leaders of his denomination, he used such a word, and charging that the colored papers misquoted and misrepresented him in reporting his welcome address. Whether the Shreveport mayor addressed the convention as "niggers" or not (and anything is likely to happen or be said in that Louisiana city), the Informer reports it as a very healthy city. He also mentions that the city will openly state that he did not insult a colored body, or employ any term at which the constituents of the convention could reasonably take offense. Once more the power of the Negro press is proven in forcing this Southern mayor to enter a disclaimer, and ask that denominational leaders be taught to light regarding his speech. However if the Shreveport mayor designation (and the record proves that he did say "niggers") he would show himself a much bigger man by making an apology rather than by issuing an official general disclaimer after the reaction to the alleged insult has set in, and the city and its white citizens have received national disregue and unfavorable public While criticising our white neighbors for referring to our race as "niggers," it strikes The Informer that we should also discontinue this practice among ourselves; for it is foolish to get peeved at us and to address us by the same appellation we use so much among our neighbors. Self-respect, whether individual, racial or national, like charity, must begin at home and then spread abroad; and, while this paper holds no brief for any Southern mayor or white citizen who would so offend and insult a colored gathering as to use the word "niggers" in the line, "boon," there is much room for improvement along the line, "intra-racially and inter-racially"—and we don't mean perhaps. The Houston Informer America's Greatest Weekly Newspaper BY O. P. DEWALT President, Local Branch, N.A.A.C.P. We have seen what we have seen and many of us are sad and wiser, but not all of us. Discounting the costs we were just as sure of the course that the sun is going to be on a cloudless morning in May—in spite of the deafening noise of law and police, we were aware at the time that the big fuss was intended for the consumption of visitors and the outside world. We were aware of the first two cases to come up, and the confession of the police de The events with which this lynching was linked were too notable for it to be ignored. The convention focused the attention of the world on the Houston lynching, which was the name suggests the Houston convention; every mention of the Houston lynching was made in the lynching. Because of the fact that the Houston convention is the best defense lynching and the best defense spoken and determined in their effort to bring the victims to justice, the atlantic citizens and the world at large have been inclined to withhold a chance to make good. They have got our number now—they have already learned how to handle hypocrites. After all, this lynching is minor when compared to some legal lynchings that have taken place Passing Parade Have you made a signed confession yet? Well, go ahead—it won't hurt you. M.R. J.

The appalling number of Negroes who have been elected to the legislature has number of friendless whites since the installation of the electric chair in Texas, is conservative proof of this failure. We serve a service time in the penitentiary where others go scot-free. Our officers and the Negro represents the direction of the least resistance. No one promises immunity for confessions that the most dangerous lynchers are not always members of the bloodline. We teach the class which makes our complexion the sole excuse for withholding the right that we are entitled to an tax-payee. These people lynch our manhood, our self-respect, our spirit, and every soul. And long as our law-makers, law-interpreters and law-enforcers practice their crime, be nothing surprising about the attitude of the citizens at large. It is only natural that they should follow These conditions will not change until our status as citizens is changed. We will be required to enforce the laws; until we can pay the taxes; until we pay the people who are keeping us away from the polls and withholding our rights of citizenship that we have bought us.
