X—TWO SECTIONS WHITE Meas THE MIRROR BY C. F. RICHARDSON REGARD FOR VERACITY CRAB CHARACTERISTICS THOUGHT AND CHOICE THE MUSEUM STILL THEY COME One of the local race publications, in its last week's issue, sought to create the impression—really charging it as a fact—that the special feature, the *The Mirror*, by Floyd J. Calvin, who is doing some special journalistic work on the Houston Forum, lynchning here for the Courier and Houston Informer; when as a host for the Forum, he was in Houston for one week during the Pythian grand lodge, the first week in June, and the article appearances in the *The Mirror*, written for "The Mirror," at this writer's request. Mr. Calvin told his observations in Houston and wrote more or less in a personal vein of his state; and the only news carried in the Courier about the local horrible horror came through regular news reports. Perhaps our journalistic contemporary had in mind Edgar G. Brown, dragged Robert Powell from his dying state; and the only news carried in the Courier about the local horrible horror came through regular news reports. But even Mr. Brown's article had made the doppelgänger of the邓廷豪 party than with the then recent lynching be, and he wrote things saw them and did not mince words. It strikes us that Negro editors strike at the journalistic frater, even if the latter is not a resident and even though he may be putting, a program of publicity which they too ooze too dense or to understate. The statement that Mr. Calvin or the borough burger "covered" the Houston lynching and unfavourably "sold" this outside world through the former, is not only a misstatement of the borough to us as malicious propaganda but malice and the crab instinct which so peculiarly infect and infest the Ne ... While talking about this "crab" instinct or characteristic of the Negro in church, the members of our race, often associated together in church, fraternal, business, social, civic and other circles, teach their children to tie beards to their immediate associates. a one member of the church, lodge club, organization or firm seeks to maintain himself and his family in keeping with his station in life, and teach them to take, certain envious associates will begin to circulate rumors and reports to keep up with the Joneses; "trying to run with people who can buy and sell them, such as teachers and children sleek in areas around a nice car when he ought to be running a second-hand filer"; "lives in the city," he says; "that he is rich," and a lot of such bunk which only emanates from a person with an evil heart or cracked One reason it is rather difficult to get Negroes to form companies, commit to the crab attribute; for it seems to be our racial policy and training that we must insist another Negro to rise above us, and perchance, one Negro does show unmistakable sign of rising above the racial for the racial process, but these envious blacks are unable to hunch his back, they get bury, manufacture rumors and gossip. The greatest enemy to Negro programs is the NEGRO HIMSELF. He is the only force which can arrest the Negro. Negro will never trump the gridiron of life until he learn and practice the elemental and motivated other successful races and people. If you don't want a racial brother to try to place an impediment in your pathway; to prove your race back in the basket with the other ebony-hued "crab," for goodness sake.

The white advisory committee also delegated Dr. J. W. Slaughter with more autocratic and arbitrary power, virtually giving him carte blanche authority, and took steps which may ultimately cust all of the colored doctors from this supposed Negro hospital. Under the rule of appointing 20 such board, and refused to accept the white consulting doctor, who shall be postfixed. Under the rule of apportion* 20 white consulting doctors, who shall be appointed by the Nine-Mile North staff until the St. Joseph's Infrary constructs a building for colored patients, the white advisory committee, exercising extra legal authority not conceived to it by the constitution of the hospital, declared null and void rules and regulations of the colored staff, which had been approved by the colored board, and delegated to Dr. Joseph A. McCormick matters which have heretofore been the property of the colored staff and board. New Negro Board Chosen In naming the new Negro board for 1929, the white advisory committee reapproached three of the 1928 members, viz: W. E. Miller, C. H. McGrude, Rev. J. S. Secord, the four new members, E. McCoy, Miss Virginia B. Miller and "Gussie" Andrews. The colored board failed to elect the last named person, for no member of the Negro board knew any person in Houston by that name. The board, members, W. E. Miller and C. H. McGrude, took the position that, since it was apparent that there is no need for a colored board (the white advisory committee) and superintendent M. H. Bright having super-authority and making the decision of the former car of Russia and emperor of Germany), they was no further AMERICAN ACTOR SHOWS PREJUDICE WHILE IN EUROPE New York City—(ANP)—According to news newspapers received here, Jack Hylton, white American jazz conductor, has got himself into a whole lot of trouble with the French Association for the Protection of the Black Race, by forgetting that he was not a Frenchman and that his race prejudice got the better of his good judgment. It happened in a Brussels theatre, where he was appearing. There he met Nabib Mobilhuis, a black artist, who also was on the bill. When Hylton was asked about the same the same bill with a Negro he refused to "go on." To forestall trouble, the manager invented some sort of pretend for requesting Bongila to postpone his appearance and as a result the French Black Race, has decided to take up the matter with the Union of French Artists. AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JAN. 12, 1929 Some Unwilling To Serve It is currently rumored that some of the newly elected members have stated an unwillingness to serve on the board under the present disagreement and humiliating conditions, but have refused to serve for the truthfulness of these reports. The four retiring (or better, "retired") members of the Negro board are Rev. E. L. Harson, J. W. Hubert, H. P. Carter and C. F. Richardson. Board Tried To Heal Reef During the past year the breach between the colored staff and Houston Negroes on one side and the superintendent on the other, widened to such an extent that the retiring Negro board recommended the employment of a new superintendent on the beginning of the year; but the committee ignored this and other recommendations of the Negro board, arguably to employ and discharge hospital heads, despite the constitutional authority deputied to the colored board, but not the colored board, the wide advisory committee even exceeded its constitutional authority and designated the man to be the Negro board chairman of the Negro board. The board of the library "decisions" and the board handed down by this "supreme tribunal" to the Negro board of directors will be published and discussed in next week's issue of JULIUS ROSENWALD REAL SANTA CLAUS TO RACE CHILDREN Tuckekee Institute, Ala.—(ANP)—To the tots in the lower grades of the Children's House of Tuckekee Institute, Julius Rosenwald is more than 20 years old and is the chief philanthropist. He is in a real very sense Santa Claus. For annually Mr. Rosenwald sends toys and useful gifts to be distributed among the children of the kindergarten, the first, second and third grades of the school at Christmas time. Exercises at which the gifts were distributed were held at the Children's House Thursday before closing the school for the holidays. Mr. Rosenwald started this custom a number of years ago. He is the founder of the Booker T. Washington, founder of the Tuckekee Institute. He has continued it throughout the years much to the delight of the children. Whenever Mr. Rosenwald makes a trip to Tuckekee, he is always the director where he is enthusiastically greeted by the pupils.

Declaring that attorney and not race counted with him, Commissioner Whalen administered the oath of office to him on January 1, 1915, the first time in the city of New York that office or any office of equal rank has been given to a Negro.

NEGRO BANKER MAKES GIFT TO WHITE SCHOOL New York City—Objection to the location of a combined school for Negroes in Tennessee, on the part of whites, was met by a lesson in toleration by the school's banker, according to the N. A. C. A. p. quoting from an article in the current American Missionary. It appears that at the very time opposition to this colored school was raised by the Bishops Church, out over the radio for funds for a school for white students in the same state of Tennessee. One of the listeners to the appeal was Jesse Binga, who promptly sent his check. The banker, who was a member of the color of the Tennessee school which said: "When one reaches your plane of thought and feeling, he of necessity raised above racial or religious conditions, might be designated as the comic man-broad, sympathetic, tolerant, and as Lincoln expressed it, with malice toward none and charity for this.

TEXAS PASTOR RECEIVES CALL TO NASHVILLE REV. RUSSELL C. BARBOUR Nashville, Tenn.—Last week the first Baptist Church, Nashville, aided the Rev. Russell C. Barbour, A.B.A. B.A. m. pastor of the Macedonia Baptist Church, Galveston, Texas. The first Baptist Church is one of the most distinguished Baptist churches of the National Baptist Convention. It numbers among its former pastors many of the most distinguished scholars and pulpeters of the National Baptist Convention. Among them are: Dr. W. S. Elliottson, who pastored first Baptist Church for 17 years; the late R. M. Gilbert, Sr., famous Colgate University professor, and president of Roger Williams and the University of the University of Toronto. Among the national leaders who are members of the first Baptist Church are: Dr. L. G. Jordan of the historical department of the National Baptist Convention; Dr. E. D. Frieder, auditor and efficiency expert of the National Baptist Convention; Editor of Dr. E. D. Frieder's scholarly Prof. Dr. J. T. Brown, eminent theologian and editor, as well as many Rev. Barbau succeeded his father, the late Dr. A. Barbau, in the pastorate of the University in 1921. His father was pastoring church when he was born and remained there 33 years. Having attended college, he graduated from Houston College in the class of 1916; graduating with honors from Morehouse College in 1921. He then, gradually taking his master's degree at Colgate University, Hamilton, N. Y., in 1921. Rev. Barbau is eminently fitted to carry on in the Athens of the ... Galveston, Texas—When reached at his home by an Informer reporter who incurred wounds, or not he had, he I have 90 to answer, and I am thinking.

The state and the youngsters in the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention will be walking the streets with two shoestores and the Baptist Missionary will know they have my fears that the intelligent layman of the pulpit state willick us and take charge themselves. FEDERAL SOLDIER REMEMBERS SLAVE IN HIS BEQUESTS Cleveland, Ohio—(ANP)—At the beginning of the Civil War, a young white man by the name of T. Spencer Knight, enlisted in the Union Army and for the duration of the war fought for the physical freedom of the Nebraska soldier, which was probated here Thursday showed that his interest in the Negro still existed by bequests amounting to $3,000 to promote the educational and religious freedom of the group. These bequests were made to the Claremont Home for Colored People St. James A. M. E. Church and the Pleasant Hill Academy located in Pleasant Hill, Tennessee. FIRST SECTION—NUMBER 34 Reapportionment Bill Before Nation Solons; Stubborn Battle Seen Reapportionment Bill Before Nation Solons; Stubborn Battle Seen Michigan Congressman Introduces Resolution To Reduce States' Representation In Congress—Bay State Representative To Join Forces In Pushing Fight—Dixie Solons Excited, But Plan Hectic Encounter Washington, D. C.—(ANP)—The old saying, "When thieves fall out, honest men get their just deserts," can be aptly applied to the interest of the Negro and of those who are fighting in the present congressional formation of president. But the tie to reallocate the number of representatives is essentially a conflict between the Southern states, which have more representatives than they and certain Northern states which are denied their proper number. When Representative Clarence McLeod, Michigan Republican, introduced his reapportionment bill, he aimed it at all of those states which he believes have been cheating Michigan of her proper representation. Most of those states are of the Southern democracy where the Negro is disfranchised. Mississippi Governor Condones Lynch Law; Treats Horror Lightly New York—The state of Mississippi, whose two lynchings in the past week raised the year's record in the United States from 9 to 11, is called the "plague spot of lynching in America" in a telegram sent to Governor Theodore Bilbo by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. In the telegram, Mississippi "anarchic indifference to human life and standards of common decessory essential to civilization" are hailed as symptoms of the low place of that state in education, per capita wealth, industry and general progress. The fight now being waged in congress is revealing the extent of the cheating that has been going on. The fourteenth amendment to the constitution is issued ahead of the Negro the right of suffrage, but in Southern states, through one device or another, most of the Negro population is kept from the polls. The same amendment which contracts for the Negro's franchise further provides the right to vote in the states deprived of the several states according to their numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each state, excluding Indians not taxed, and it still further provides that such representation shall be denied in proportion to vote except for crime or treason. It is estimated that if the fourteenth Mississippi Condones I Treats H New York—The state of Mine the past week raised the year's 9 to 11, is called the "plague s telegram sent to Governor Theo ciation for the Advancement of In the telegram, Mississippi's life and standards of common are hailed as symptoms of the lo per capital wealth, industry and The telegram to Governor Billo, signed by Wagen Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, reads as follows: "The agent again stands pilloried before the civilized world as the plague户 of lynching in America, having raised the total for the United States during 1928 from 9 to 11, with two brutal murders in the last weeks of the year. One of these actresses was the burning alive of a man at the stake. Five of the 11 men are charged against Mississippi."

Twice the electoral votes to which the South is not entitled while disfranding the Negro would easily determine the result in a close presidential election. Representative George H.

Brown, Wainwright, William Sneed, H. Byrd, Adela H. Byrd, John C. Byrd, and members of the union of King Baptist Church, filed a bill of complaint against the pastor, the deacons and trustees of the church. For sometime trouble has been brewing in this church, and evidences of the abuse of the bill of complaint cite several instances of irregular and unjust rulings on the part of the pastor, the complainants being of the opinion that he desired to enact certain rules for his own good, the well-being of the congregation, and that is said to desire continuation in office of the present boards of deacons and trustees, notwithstanding the fact that Benjamin J. Bunn, it is stated in the bill of complaint, has not been able to get the necessary bond of RB, to be bound by the church for its treasurer. Charge Pastor With Keeping Money According to the complainants, the pastor of the church, the Rev. James E. Kirkland has unlawfully and wrongly obtained from the church amount of $2,000 and, over which he has appropriated to his own use. As far as can be accepted the money trouble grew out of an arrangement whereby the pastor was to receive the money each month, the morning, the afternoon and evening collections being considered his. The fourth Sunday is Communion Sunday, when numbers of the church members are counted monthly. It is charged that the Rev. Kirkland entered into a conspiracy with the treasures of the church, or certain of them to include in his salary, in addition to the three collections, all money received for the church on each and every occasion from Monday after the third Sunday and to including Monday after the fourth Sunday. The parties in complaint state that the Rev. Kirkland has fallen to turn over the money and that after having been requested so to do. DR. CHAS.W.

We have not yet presented the subject topically, using many texts. it is proper that we should first give a definition of sin. We have translated sin in the Hebrew and the Greek signifies "to deviate from the law." Malpractice, therefore a going aside, may be a standard sin. Sin is also the transgression of the law (I 1: 4: 3). We also have a transgression of the law. Deeper than all this is the condition of the out, of which all thought and accuse us of sin. We have a Pascal conscience (Rom. 7: 8, 8). 1. The Origin of Sin (Gen. 3:1-24). Man was placed on probation in the Bible because Adam was created with the posibility of character, but not with character. This he could get only through testing. He would, after alternative creature bearing the likeness and image of God, made character possible and inevitable. Character is the resultant of choice.

J. RHOADS Dallas, Texas Within recent years the Colored State Teachers' Association of Texas has made substantial progress. His spirit of scientific inquiry and constructive legislation; its business methods are sound, safe, and progressive; its influence and program of service are rapidly being projected in great state; and its fair name is beheld throughout the nation. The Marshall law makes many phases, a work of excellence priority, with that of any other state organization of teachers in the South, the education of the teachers of the North, and other of Negro education in this state, who had even a few worthy movements, are entitled to the highest praise and commendation. The worthy movement, are entitled to the highest praise and commendation. The membership in the Colored State Teachers' Association of Texas is a Today, we stand on the vantage ground of *n* noteworthy past and face the new year. And it begins to come my high privilege and pleasant duty to offline, a program that I hope will ultimately meet the needs and expectations of our great and growing Right of Democratic Participation to Be More Widely Extended And may I emphasize this one point at the very outset; namely, the pro-actives must be expected that this y car is to be successfully executed, those of the staff who must support the leader must seek religious to improve ourselves in knowledge, spirit and practice, and that this greater unity of purpose the important services of our organization. We must actively participate in the administration and active participation in the administration, and must magnify the importance of these phases of the work which may be regarded by many as relatively unimportant. You will be interested to know, I am sure, that the program as planned will be held in Houston at 1290 people, including 500 or more public school pupils of Houston. I refer here to people who met the criteria of the program during the year, or participate in the membership call which will be followed in this meeting. Moral and Spiritual Values In Education to Be Stressed We have abundant evidence to support the importance of early formal in its organization and procedures; and that the major discipline of FAR is its anti-social policies and methods operate to suppress both the formation of the school's chief aims, namely, the formation of students and knowledge which are indispensable for particularly active learning and to which it is entitled, not so much in later years as in the present. They may commit an unreasonable sin against the personality of the child, rendering intellectual and moral development should be aggressive, courougous, critical and ethical, and other child in America, which his heart craves. The present day Mégre child is within the years of a long life, and is therefore an important child in America, needs that training which refines and liberates his moral and In the face of this fundamental need, it shall be my purpose to exercise the presidency of the Colored State Teacher's Association of Texas, mainly by a broad understanding of the school as a social institution; in magnifying the unrestness of the child's personality, the need for a more adequate of democratic participation in the life of the school; and in adding our own agritic and techniques required for the larger, more important, and more genuinely satisfying services which each school can provide.

For years it has been creeping along the shores of the world, warding the sky and its hand gripping hesitantly about in search of an upright object upon which to rest its weight and lift itself to its feet. As a result, Negro business is materialized in the development of a small group of business leaders with vision and courage, Negro business has raised itself up and today it is ready to take its first steps forward. Dark days will come for some of the institutions manned entirely by members of the race and dark days will vanish before the constant advancement of the business leadership, but the bulk of our commercial enterprises will prepare with increasing regularity as the years roll on. Business is business, and the Negro owned institution must measure up to the requirements set by the other institutions of its kind or fail as a result. The Negro community adversity, and ambition have bred for the group a small army of trained business leaders to whom all Negro business may look for support, guidance, and constant development. They in turn are imparting their knowledge to younger men and women who have passed on and guide Negro business forward till it shall walk upright with all the vigor and confidence demanded by the competition of modern times. And so, we look forward to the New Year and plan for the future of the commercial institutions and our race. We look forward to the men and women who are leaders in our economic life—the those who have C. R. Yerwood, M. D. MEDICINE AND SURGERY Specializing in *Diseases of infant* maternal health.

But the number of handling successes is not inspiring. The most casual analysis of our commercial successes indicates that Negroes flock to those fields where some individual has made an unusual or spectacular achievement. We find that the number of successful overcrowded, while ones with equal or greater opportunity have no or no recruits. But that duplication of successful effort has its decided effect on the growth of progressive enterprises launched by men and developed in other cities than the one where success is first achieved. Insurance companies, loan and finance companies, and cab companies have grown up in a result of this initiative stimulus. W1129 see a charge in our rate of business expansion?

SPEAKERS LAUD AND CONDEMN LINCOLN'S ACT New Orleans, La.—(ANP)—The 66th anniversary of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation of President Lincoln was celebrated at two meetings at which directly opposed the proclamation were expressed. Rev. Calvin M. Stalkner said, "Today is a day that should be dear to the minds of all colored people, for it was on this day just sixty-eight years ago that the famous proclamation freeing all colored people and giving them a voice in the great government of the United States." On the other hand, J. J. Peters in addition to Mr. Peters of the Universal Negro Improvement Association said: "Lincoln issued his famous Emancipation Proclamation as a political punishment for the South, and did not issue it for the benefit of the Negro," and asserted "that the North served rather as a yoke than an aid." "The Ngro when he comes to the relization that Mr. Lincoln's procla- tion of the United States in the country, will follow Marcus Garvey into an empire of his own, but the Ngro will never come into this reali- tion.

No college can look back upon its record without finding one that the teams were more evenly matched than in any previous season. Such a condition naturally kindled more interest than ever before, and all games were well attended. The conference did not pick a champion team for 1928. On the whole, intercollegiate football among colored colleges was no doubt, no doubt, no doubt, as that played in any part of the country. The coaching of the teams is getting better each year, and without question the play is imitating the mania among players and spectators. The players have also mastered the technique of intricate systems of Despite the bitterness of the conference struggles and the interest in interpersonal clash between Tuskegee and Wilberforce will live long in the memories of the team's victories in interpersonal clash between nerve-wrecking games ever played in the South. Tuskegee and Wilberforce will live long in the memories of the team's nerve-wrecking games ever played in the South. Tuskegee and Wilberforce intercepted a Wilberforce pass and ran 98 yards for a touchdown. As the game went along with Tuskegee and Wilberforce with Tuskegee in possession of the ball on its 12-yard line, it looked as if the Tigers would win. There was a chance to win, but the three plays at the line, 10 seconds left to play. The fourth try and the point scored by Wilberforce missed the try for point. Score: Tuskegee 6, Wilberforce 6. Impact: The game of importance, Howard University defeated Atlanta University, 12 to 7. It was another of the characterful games of the season.

WEST SELECTS ALL-AMERICAN FOOTBALL TEAM (By CHARLES WEST) Having been requested to name an all-American selection for the fall of 1928, I am submitting such with the aid of Charles Doneghy, star back of Howard University, 1928, who has been awarded by many of the individual players due to officiating and close contact with the students.

His doggedness proves he has stamina, a relic of the first degree, in every play, as captain of the first team that includes Morgan is the most brilliant player of the most any play that comes his way can pass and is very good at breaking up. The guards are unusually good. We consider Rogle the best we have seen this year. He is the most dependable linemen can play anywhere on line, can back up the line well. Due to versatility and his dependable linemen, the centers are very strong with Thompson of Bluefield, Patterson of Tualatin and Hayes of Howard, the field is undoubtedly the most consistent.

Panthers To Meet Wildcats Oct.21; Langston Replaced Marshall, Texas.—According to information released by Business Manager H. J. Mason of the championship Wiley College Wildcats, the Wiley-Langston game, which for the past four years has been the chief early season game in the Southwest, will be replaced by a Wiley-Prairie View clash at the Dallas State Fair on Monday, October 21. The announcement comes not as a surprise, as there has been a great deal of agitation throughout the state for this contest on the big day. Mr. Mason refused to say just what the real reason for the change was, but it is generally thought that the financial opportunities will surpass those of the Wiley-Langston game. After four years the best crowd that the Wiley-Langston game can draw is about 5000 and practically the entire attendance, with the exception of a couple of hundred, are supporters of Wiley, the Oklahoma fans seeming to take little interest in the game. With Prairie View, who has the largest alumni in the state, a party to the clash, it is expected that the attendance at last year's State Fair game will be easily doubled and possibly tripled. It was stated further by Manager Mason that while the Wiley-Langston game would not be played at the State Fair, a home and home agreement will be offered the Oklahomaans, as Wiley has no desire to sever athletic relations with the Sooner State Lions. football sense and the ability to play the game to no small degree.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JANUARY 12, 1929 THE HOUSTON NEGRO HOSPITAL Several months ago one of the local race newspapers asked, editorially, what was the trouble with Houston Negro Hospital? This same query was often proposed by The Informer during 1826. The editor of The Informer (readers will pardon this personal conference), having served as a member of the colored board of directors during the past year, and having observed the hospital from practically all angles, is not convinced that this Third Ward institution will never function as the donor desires as long as the present system of management or mismanagement obtains. In the first place, the hospital needs a superintendent who does not think himself or herself superior to and better than the other members of the Negro race; one who is not always advertising the fact that he has no Negro blood in his veins; one who has not been a failure at every place where he has seen this type of service before; one who will not pimp and serve in the stool-pigeon rule to white folks; one who will cooperate with the colored staff and will make friends for the institution among members of the Negro race; one who will not devote his time and energy to "running down" the doctors and members of the colored board, and one who will have some degree of respect for and confidence in the colored hospital staff and personnel, as well as board members. Next, the hospital needs as contact man between the institution, the white advisory committee, and Negro board, a white man who is not a car or absolute monarch, and one who does not treat with and regard the Negro board as monkey-men, jumping jacks or mere mankinians; one who does not consider the constitution and by-laws of the institution as a "mere scrap of paper"; one who will respect Negro womanhood and will not refer to our leading women as "Martha," "Mary," etc.; one who has some faith in the ability of the Negro to serve his race efficiently and intelligently, and whose opinion of the Negro's ability, efficiency, proficiency and moral tone is not influenced by the tattlings of black men. In reality, under the present regime and system, there is absolutely no need for a Negro board at this hospital; for the colored board has no authority except that granted it through the tolerance (?) and kindness (?) of the white advisory committee, the ruling czar and czarina. Here is an all-star hospital team which must be invincible! Despite the fact that the constitution of the Houston Negro Hospital, which was drafted by white members of the present advisory committee, delegates certain functions to the Negro board, no black board has yet been permitted to exercise these functions without interference and nullification on the part of the white advisory committee. To illustrate our contention, we shall cite an instance or two: Despite June, at a meeting attended by one or two members of the white advisory committee, the Negro board of directors the superintendent and group of civic workers, it was decided to conduct a drive for the sale of hospital certificates to the Negroes of this community. When the St. Joseph Infirmary recently demolished and raised its colored ward, and local white doctors were forced to find another place for their Negro patients, even though the written laws of the Houston Negro Hospital expressly stipulate the procedure in such situations, the kaiser ignored both the Negro hospital staff and the Negro patients. In the case of white doctors, to carry their black patients to Houston Negro Hospital and there perform their operations and render medical services in direct competition with colored doctors. a situation which the donor of the hospital tried to forestall and prevent by stating, both on the bronze tablet adorning the hospital's walls and the hospital's constitution, the object and purpose of this eleemosynary institution. When the Negro board conferred with the czar and sought to convince him that his act was diametrically at variance with the laws, rules and regulations of the Houston Negro Hospital, this noted hospital authority and expert, who it was alleged, once served in a similar capacity with another local hospital but was performed virtually invited the Negro directors to take a swift trip to the plutocratic regions; and informed the black board that he knew his ground and did not give a rap about their attitude to the contrary, or words and actions to that effect. When the Negro hospital staff and the Harris County Afro-American Medical Society' brought charges against Superintendent M. H. Bright, alleging many acts and offenses which the Negro board considered grave enough to give a fair and impartial hearing the can interposed and averred that the fight was beaten launched against his administration of the colored hospital and not against the superintendent of the Houston Negro Hospital. POLITIC BY KELLY The year 1929 cant turn in the poor Negro race. A will be inaugurated in the city. Mr. Hoover comes with a backroom which are wholly terial. He is an amparal excellent of several speeches he showed him to be made known by Blaine. The fourth amendments do no The present superintendent, apparently giving heed to advice received from sources not racial, dealt with and regarded the 1928 Negro board more as children and puppets than as grown men, and supposed custodians of the institution. Even at this late date, despite the fact that she was asked in writing during the fall to submit her annual report to the Negro board, no such report has been issued or formalized by any member of the Negro board from the superintendent. Her policy has been largely one of ignoring the Negro board, and many obligations are incurred and other acts committed during the year without consulting or conferring with the Negro board. If her "boss" instructed her to do a thing, the Negro board could go to Helena, Montana, as far as the superintendent was concerned. The membership certificates, entitling members of the subscribing families to free hospitalization for the period of one year—a very fine idea—became a curse and burden upon the hospital due to the lack of staff. The board can cancel the memberships when the holders of same sought hospital service under their terms and provisions; and some ugly scenes were narrowly averted during the past year by two or three members of the Negro board rushing to the hospital and adjusting the differences between the superintendent and angry race citizens. Why, on one occasion the superintendent took all the jewelry away from a young colored woman, holder of a membership certificate, because she contended the woman needed hospital treatment before taking out the certificate; and that she felt justified in her action, and holding the same until redeemed by the payment of the regular hospital fee. The woman's husband was urged by some boes (and they are legion) of the superintendent to give publicity to the incident and mistreatment in the colored newspapers of the city and country, but members of the Negro board again rushed to the fore and remedied the impending assaults, which have not been calculated to "sell" the hospital to the Negroes of this community, the caesar politely informed the Negro board on more than one occasion that "EVERY ACT OF NURSE BRIGHT WAS DONE AT MY DIRECTION AND SUGGESTION." (We shall expose some of these ACTS in a subsequent issue.) As another concrete illustration that the white advisory committee considers and regards the Negroes as chumps and more politely informs the Negroes of the white committee's recent action in selecting the 1929 Negro board. After naming the seven colored members for 1929, the white advisory committee staged the unheard and unprecedented stunt of electing or designating the person who shall be chairman of the Negro board of directors, even taking away from the new board a right and function which the white committee did permit the 1929 Negro board to exercise. A diameter of the wind the way is blowing or to blow, as it relates to Negroes' connection with the Houston Negro Hospital, the white advisory committee has named a staff of 20 WHITE DOCTORS for the Houston Negro Hospital, to serve with (?) the Negro staff until the Negro ward at St. Joseph Infirmary is rebuilt. This seems to be like the gift which the Greeks conveyed to the Trojans, only this present act is loaded with dynamite, TNT or some other dangerous explosive. After serving on the Negro board of directors of the Houston Negro Hospital for about one year, the editor of The Informer is thoroughly convinced that, under the present ccar-czarina regime and hard-boiled, autocratic system of (mis)management, there is absolutely no need for a colored board; and no Negro (genetically speaking) will be able to serve under the present conditions in this capacity without stultifying his manhood, relinquishing all his rights under the hospital's constitution and betraying his race. TEXANS ENDORSE INFORMER'S POSITION Receipt of the news that The Informer's editorial content, to drop Langston University of Oklahoma, as Wiley College's football adversary at the annual "Negro Day" game at the Dallas State Fair, has borne fruit, will be received with genuine joy and satisfaction throughout Texas; and the publication of the news that Prairie View State College Panthers will clash with the Wiley Wildcats at Dallas, Monday, October 21, 1929, will create a response in the breasts of Texans which will be demonstrated concretely when the two elephants meet next fall. It was indeed gratified to note the unstinted support of Texans regardless of school affiliations, to this paper's suggestion that "Texas be sold on Texas Negro Day;" and we take this occasion to congratulate both Wiley College and Dallas State Fair officials for thus acceding to public demand in this respect. This paper had no fight to wage upon the Oklahoma institution of learning, but we have often wondered if the Sooner State would have continued such an annual custom with an out-of-state team, when there were three or four state elevenors of the consid- eration of achievements and athletic prestige accruing from such gridron contests. The Holy Writ declares that "the that provident not for his own household is worse than an infidel and has denied the faith;" and if the scriptures are true, then it is high time that Texans of both races begin to look after the interests of Texans. With the largest number of alumni, Friends and supporters in the state, Prairie View should prove a far better drawing card than either Wiley or Langston at such a game; and the South Texas special, which could never be realized when the Lions were widest possible at the fair, will not only become a reality, but a distinct success. Though the game comes early in the Texas football season, it is to be hoped that both coaches will have their charges in as fine a shape as possible, and that grid fans of the state will be treated more favorably. Texas is one of the states Texans in all sections of the state should begin early to plan to attend this game, and even though it falls on a day (Monday) which makes it quite difficult for many teachers and those engaged in certain lines of endosure to attend, why not begin a statewide tournament? Texas and invade Dallas several thousand strong for this event? OPINIONS Cimbee's Ramblings POLITICAL PROGRAM FOR 1929 M The year 1929 will mark a significant turn in the political history of the Negro race. A new administration will be inaugurated, whose mind on the race question is to enter into the kingdom with a background and experience which are wholly commercial and material. He is an expert and expound par excelent of economic issues. His several speeches during the campaign have been instrumental in the persuasion of the late James G. Blaine. The fourteenth and fifteenth amendments do not form a part of his universe of discourse. He has the birthright of a Quaker conscience, the background of a Christian civilization, and the legislative regulation as regards the darker breeds of men, African and African, a world experience of dealing with non-white social inferior, and eight years of official experience of Commerce. The normal bent of his nature in the direction of business and commercial prosperity. For this purpose he was called to the kingdom at such a time as this. He took the necessary obligation, and he promised him nothing. The Negra has been eliminated as a political party by both major parties. They both solicit his vote in the pin of an election with equal availity, but with equal stationity and equal consideration of his right to vote. I aint never sed nuthin ter yu bunt de deth tuthier day uv ore oul ex-feller sifterman, Hemm Perry, Nobbody ed yung man, es match on I did.

The incoming administration must be receptive to competent suggestions because of its oblivious desire for a stronger law. The far more contingent has been limited ruthlessly. The Negro leadership, in the old sense of the term, has been shamed and there. Three men have been charged with the new order of things. Simply Mr. Hoover does not wish to have the Negro politically woke off then he found him. Constitution suggestions would have been the formulation of the new policy.

The Republican and Democratic national committees are planning for permanent organizations so as to function more efficiently. Both of these bodies have adopted the policy of setting up college auxiliary committees to keep in finger touch with the college voters who might be disband to follow the direction of the college. Why should not both parties set up permanent college auxiliaries to hold the Negro vote in line? At present the Negro's political interest is spasmatic and intermittent. It is not a campaign. There is no consistent plan or persistent presences. All that either party wants from the Negro in his vote; but the Negro wants for himself all of the programs and perceptions in that war. Thus he must keep his eye continually on the mail. Under the old regime the rights of man as embodied in the amended constitution constituted an important political dynamic, positive or negative, in both political parties. This dynamic died away at Kunigawa City and at Houten, and the existence of two parties nest at the zero point. In year gone by the inauguration brought to Washington expectant Negro politicians from al parts of the land, hopefully awaiting to be appointed recorder of something or minister to somewhere. But no such hopes will swell the breast of the ambition Negro politician on Man O'Brien, who constitutes a political entity which cannot be ignored by virtue of his electoral potential.

"The turkey attack," the broubling up of China and the spilling of Grassie (grassie). Once upon a time there was a political leader, Clarence W. Matthowbyn, who formulated a program for the fourteen points. This program was indeed temperate in its demands. These fourteen points were presented to President Coolidge whose administration was bubbling over with unrest. The fourteen points were waived aside with the left hand because there was no political pressure back of them to give the demands effectiveness. The voice of Mr. Matthowbyn became the voice which the administration respected not. Nor will any administration respect any demand from the Negro unions it is backed up by the power of command. He is the race upheld the hands of the spokesman, and given the ruling powers to understand that this is what the race expected as the reward of past loyalty and the price of freedom. The fourteen points could have been a different tale to tell. Prof. W. L. D. Bibbons, Blackburn principal, lays hounsting the concert tour by the band *Fish Gull club*. His son, W. L. D.

Illustrated FEATURE SECTION THE HOUSTON INFORMER agreed. "Now we can find out if Harlem appreciates regular merchandise," he chuckled. For some reason Mr. Stewart let the conversation die there, and during the silence which followed young Mr. Walker removed several of the brilliant rings from the case, fitted them on little cards, then placed them at strategic intervals among their other merchandise in the display window. The cards proclaimed to all Harlem that they were genuine imported diamonds—price three hundred dollars. He then stepped back behind the counter and awaited results. Mr. Stewart's voice rumbled down the narrow salesroom to him again. "You know, Walker, I feel sort of skittish," he said. "Yes," said Mr. Stewart, rising from his desk and coming forward. "The place was safe enough as long as we didn't carry anything too valuable, but now——" He pointed meaningly toward the trayful of glistening rings under the counter glass. "Twelve hundred dollars' worth," he ended. GEORGE R. SCHUYLER Editor HE J. P. STEWART CO. represented one of Harlem's foremost colored enterprises in the jewelry line—watches, rings and pearls—genuine and otherwise. Included in the single long display case, neat little HE J. P. STEWART CO. represented one of Harlem's foremost colored enterprises in the jewelry line—watches, rings and pearls—genuine and otherwise. Inclosed in the single long display case, neat little green plush trays sparkled their contents through the thick plate-glass counter-top in a manner that pleased young Mr. Walker, salesman, profoundly. It was a late summer afternoon and the little store was, for the moment, bare of customers. To the rear Mr. Stewart himself worked diligently at his desk. Mr. Walker knew positively that he was working on the invoices that represented their most recent purchases in diamonds—cost two forty, sell three hundred. Young Mr. Walker, leaning leisurely at the counter, had just given in to something like the twentieth temptation to slip one of these newly arrived gems on his own finger, when Mr. Stewart suddenly spoke from the rear. "Walker," rumbled the heavy voice, "this last shipment is swell stuff, eh?" Walker toyed with the sparkling thing on his finger. It was beautiful. "About the best stuff we've ever had," he "Skittish?" "Yes," said his employer, frowning. "Bur- glars and sharps." Customer Enters Just then a pretty little brown-skinned woman came in and asked to see some pearls—exactly like the ones in the window. A few minutes of high-pressure sales talk, and young Walker sold her a string of imitation pearls with imitation platinum clasp—gorgeous little box and all—five ninety-five. When he was free again he glanced at his employer, who had returned to his desk, and smiled. "Huh!" he said to himself. "With all the police protection and that big safe, old Stewart's shaky. Stuff's insured, too." The rings sparkled up to him and he soon forgot the whole incident. In fact, he didn't think of Mr. Stewart's remarks again until nearly an that a certain man had passed and paused in front of the window three different times in the short space of ten minutes. He became anxiously alert at once. Outside, the tall well-dressed man gazed through the plate glass at J. B.
