At that time he denied having taken part in the robberies, but told police he could open any door in this town. Upon being released, Wilder made good his boil by opening the door of the Bland Motor Company and drove off in a new Ford sedan. He was captured, along with the Ford, in Ratha, N. J. Tunday, and officers left immediately to bring him back to see the company to open the door of the company fell. COUNCILMAN FLEMING'S FRIENDS INCENSED AT CHARGES OF BRIBE PREFERRED BY WHITE POLICEMAN Cleveland, Ohio.—(ANP)—With the legal machinery being whipped into shape for an early trial, friends of Councilman Thomas W. Fleming, indicted on charges of soliciting and accepting a bribe, are rallying behind the well-known alderman and Republican leader and declaring that he is a victim of a frame-up. Supporters of Fleming express the opinion that his indictment was simply an attempt to discredit Negro leadership in politics and to divest Fleming of his power in Republican circles. They further state that he will have no trouble proving that he is innocent of the charges, and this belief is also that of the councilman himself. Beverly Agrees To Halting Sale Here of Baptist Holdings According to a statement made to an Informer reporter Monday, by Attorney John H. Barbour of Galveston, legal counsel for the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas—the faction led by Rev. E. Arlington Wilson, pastor of Macedon College, held Tuesday, sale of the college property, booked for next Tuesday on the art room steps, has been halted. This sale of the local college property was ordered by the court to satisfy a judgment granted Prof. John W. Beverly, who formerly served as president of the college, was unable to pay. But due past Mr. Beverly kindly agreed, so Attorney Barbour stated, to not push the sale just now. A Powerful Political Figure Fleming is recognized as one of the most powerful and important cogs in the political organization headed by the Republican senate and national committeeman for Ohio Scholed in politics by the late Mark Hann, whom he shaved during the 12 years he worked as barber, Fleming years ago stepped into the limelight politically and built for himself an office that was elected to the city council in 1909, and has been reelected each time since. His position in the council is as influential as that which he holds in the Republican machine. For a number of terms he served as chairman of the Republican senate and other important capacities. During the national election he was active in the Hoover campaign and was one of the presidential electors from Ohio. The Cane Against Fleming The indictment of Councilman Fleming resulted from charges brought by former Oehme, tripped policeman who was charged with a bribe for favorable action on legislation authorizing the city treasurer to pay the doctor's bills and other expenses of the officer. According to Oehme, he paid Fleming the sum of $300 for the promise and the promise of an additional sum of more than $300 for which the councilman was using his influence to have the payment authorized. Fleming denied the charges and challenged the prosecuting attorney to prove his endorsement. The cashier's check Beverly Ag Halting S of Baptis According to a statement made day, by Attorney John H.

While the judgment still stands, Beverly has been impounded to help save the property to the denomination by pursuing another course. In discussing the matter, Attorney Barbour said: "I am of the opinion, that the property must be done at once to prevent the further inten- tions of creditors of the Baptist Mis- --- alleged to have been for the amount paid by the policeman, and endorsed by Fleming was produced and the indictment resulted. The councilman pleaded not guilty and was released on a $1,000 bond. The case has rocked the political circles of the city and has aroused public discontent. One of the angles, in which little credence is put, is that the police officer has received several "mysterious visitors" and had been advised to leave town. Another is that Maurice Maschke, the Republican chief, had advised Fleming "to be calm." Maschke made the statement and declared that his advice to his colleague "all the truth, and the truth," but the truth, as to his opinion of whether Fleming is guilty, he replied: "This is the United States. I have always understood that each and every citizen is to be considered innocent until he is proved guilty. That is all I care to say about it." Fleming's position with the Maschke machine has not been affected by his speech, by him. Speaking of Fleming's importance to the "machine," Maschke said: "I really owe Tom Fleming far more than he owes me. Fleming always has been one of the chief party bulwarks in this district."

On January 18, 1929, there was filled in the Seventhment District court, Pt. Worth National Bank vs. Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas; suit on note. --- FIRST SECTION—NUMBER 37 Marshall, Texas, Jan. 30, 1929—At a recent meeting of the board of trustees of Bishop College, held here, Prof. Joseph J. Rhoads, principal of the Booker T. Washington High School of Dallas, president of the Colored State Teachers' Association of Texas, deputy grand master of the United Brothers of Friendship of Texas, and an alumnus of Bishop, was unanimously elected president of the college, to succeed Dr. D. C. Glmore (white), acting president who took up the presidential reins when Prof. C. H. Maxson became physically incapacitated for the onerous duties of the office. Established in 1881 and incorporated in 1883, Bishop College has had six presidents, all white, up to date. The presidents in their respective order and length of service were: Dr. S. W. Culver, 1881-1891; Dr. N. Wolventor, 1889-1897; Rev. A. Loughridge, 1897-1901; Dr. A. B. Chaffee, 1901-1927; Prof. C. H. Maxson, 1907-1927; Dr. D. C. Glmore, 1927-1929. If Prof. Rhoads accepts the prestige of his chosen husband, he will be the first member of the Negro race to serve as titular head of this noted institution of learning. New President Marshallite Prof. Rhoads is a native of Marshall, having been born and raised in the city of Chicago, where he was held in deposition last week. Dr. George R. Hovey, secretary of PROF. JOSEPH J. ROADS Dallas, Texas ly called "Happy Hollow;" graduating in 1906. That fall he matriculated in Bishop College and received his bachelor of science degree in 1910. In 1915 he received his degree in music from Bishop. After graduation Prof. Rhoads taught at Waco and the Prairie View Summer School. During the World War he served as Y. M. C. A. secretary at Tuskegee Institute, later teaching at this famous institution of learning. Having won a scholarship at Yale University, Prof. Rhoads took post-graduate work at this outstanding American institution, and when a new principal was needed for the Booker T. Washington High School at Dallas, he was the unanimous choice of the board and superintendent, de- pending the East than that the distinguished race educator was not an aspirant for the position. When a vacancy occurred in the principalship of Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College a few years ago, Prof. Rhoda was boosted by the principalship and the principalship of the state college. He refused to be a candidate or have his name considered for this portfolio. Chosen Hlsbsp Drive Director during last fall plans were tentatively that a $1,000,000 endowment drive would be launched during 1829, and Prof. Rhonda was designated as the man to head up and direct this campaign. That time the trustees had not definitely decided whether this effort could be pushed better with a white president or colored president, and the matter of a new chief executive of the school was held in obeyance until last week. Dr. R. Hovey, secretary of the American Baptist Home Mission Society, New York City, attended the recent board meeting and stated to the body that the society will continue to support Bishop College under the new administration; that plan had been approved by the school for endowment, new buildings and equipment, and that it had been definitely agreed that this drive should be pushed to a successful culmination under the direction of a Negro president. The president's significant that a product of Bishop College should serve as the first Negro president of the school, and those who know the president-elect best, are strong in the belief that under his administration Bishop College must maintain the foundation of the institution of the country for the higher education of Negro youth. Dr. Hovey Issues Statement A statement released for publication by Dr. George Rice Hovey, secretary of education, American Baptist College, maintained the footsteps of the New York City, says: "The trustees of Bishop College, Marshall, Texas, after mature dilatation, are happy to announce a long considered change in the management of the college.

FISHER Staff Correspondent of the Associated Negro Press Jefferson City, Mo.—Governor Henry S. Caulfield delivered before the Missouri legislature, and several thousand persons of both races, who at noon last Monday witnessed his inauguration as the thirty-seventh governor of Missouri, and the first St. Louis Republican to hold that office since the Civil War, an inaugural address replete with recommendations that in a measure affect the affairs and welfare of all the people in the state. He outlined a constructive program of legislation, designed to place Missouri in first rank among progressive states in efficient government in educational opportunities offered and in care of its charity wards, regardless to race. The ceremony for the governor and other elective officers was held before the joint session of the general assembly of Missouri legislature of which Walthal M. Moore of St. Louis; Attorney L. A. Knox of Kansas City and Attorney G. M. Allen of St. Louis, Negroes, are members.

The ceremony for the governor and held before the joint session of the ge legislature of which Walshal M. Moore A. Knox of Kansas City and Attorney Negroes, are members. Governor Fought Segregation The inaugural address was direct and simple. The new governor of Missouri knows his state. He knows its chief city both as a few men know them. He has been a judge, a memoirist, a lawyer, and a fight against segregation of our people. It will be seen that he is approaching the state capital with more than the equipment of a mere politician. In his address he devoted particular attention to the inadequate faculty of the state legislature, telling the legislature that it is spite of the constitutional right of colored citizens to the same educational opportunities given white children, there was discrimination against them, and that under the present laws, we were approximately 4000 children now more educated than without an opportunity to go to school. The governor's plan, which he asked the legislature to authorize, is to appoint a commission, on which would serve several members of the legislature, the state superintendent of schools and several others in outstanding position to make an exhaustive survey of public education, and to make recommendations to the legislature to change which should be made. Negro Is Denied Education "We know," he said, "the Missouri State University, with a splendid buildings and equipment and large annual expenditures, is provided for the white children. There is no university worthy of the name provided by the Missouri State University, would obtain a university education they must leave the state of Missouri. This is unjust and unconstitutional. "Moreover, the law makes no provision for the establishment of schools for Negro children in any school district where there are less than 11 colored children. In consequence, every white child has facilities provided for Negro children, while there are 4000 colored children in Missouri that have no school facilities whatever. Develop Lincoln University "I recommend that provision be made for developing the Lincoln University at Jefferson City, which now has no standard university course, in to a university in fact. I also recommend that provision be made for giving the institution equal to that provided for white children. This might be accomplished by requiring the establishment of a school in a district where the number equals at least 10, and by requiring, for less than that number, either the establishment of a school or the payment by the district for the transportation, as well as the tuition or the degree of service at the nearest school for colored. Home For Feeble-Minded "While ample provision has been made for the establishment and maintenance of a home, none whatever has been made for feeble-minded colored children in that respect for colored provision in that respect for colored people be made. Proper provision should be made for the education of the deaf Negro children either at Lincoln University or at some place other than the Missouri School for the Deaf Negro children. In that case the children are housed together is humiliating and unkind. "It is to the interest of the state that the Negro children receive vocational training. Therefore, I recommend the establishment of a vocation school for the Negro children for the training of Negro youth. Reformatory for Boys "The law requires that there be maintained at the Missouri Reformatory for Boys at Booneville, trade schools for their industrial training to the end that they may become intelligent and useful citizens. This will provide purpose and in charge of a suitable supervisor of trade training." --- State Penitentiary "In the penitentiary the are confined in a cell house 1868, with 147 cells on tiers. These 147 cells house 1002 men which make nearly 7 men to each cell. This cell house is entirely without plumbing or sanitary conveniences. It is impossible to maintain beautiful living conditions in a state of sanitary state penitentiary, declared Governor Canfield. The governor's reception preceded the inaugural ball last Monday evening. At Governor Canfield's own request, the first to be permitted to greet him and pass down the receiving line were the members of legislature. Representatives Waltshi Moore, L. A Knox and G. M.

White Real Estate Agents In Gotham Inciting Hatreds White Real Estate Agents In Gotham Inciting Hatreds New York.—The economic basis of race riots and lynching is glaringly evident in a letter a white staff correspondent of the Crumbner News Service received recently from a real estate company on Washington D.C., where Mr. Harlem to the West Side because NEGroes were moving into Harlem homes to a growing extent. The letter, which is a typical bit of high powered salesmanship, comes from the West Side Renting Company 2525 Broadway, and is signed by Henry Petre, one of its owners. It reads in part as follows: "In view of the well known fact that the dark invasion is rapidly encroaching upon your section, it is time to move. We can give you our permission in order to assist your wishes." It is from such capitalist greed for the profit that the deliberate incitement against the Negro arises. Negroes have refused to keep out of any night of the city, and have tried to set aside for themselves, and correctly and effectively so. They have dared to move into a section of the city centrally located and have stayed there, despite attempts of rent landlords, and kept to keep them out. Negroes have tried to fear them far more than previous tenants had paid, and force them to resort to terrible overcrowding and to pay an enormous portion of their wages for rent. By organizing militant tenant strikes with white workers Negro workers will struggle against these attempts at segregation. Walker Medal Goes To West Virginia Woman New York — The Mme. C. J.

Word to All Advertisers: BULLY FOR MISSISSIPPI! BAH FOR NEW HAMPSHIRE! BY WILLIAM PICKENS • • • • The "Tri-State News," some pandering press agency of New Hampshire, thought they would make a "hit" with Mississippi. They hoped, by a method of prostitution of service, to increase their circulation in that section. They did not know that all first-class Southern editors are now much more civilized than the type of Yankee "editors" who run the "Try-state News." Therefore after the Negro was burned in Mississippi on December 15, 1865, the editor to the editor of the Vicksburg, Miss, Heird, praising the lynching by making this flattering offer: "We are featuring conservative editorial of leading daily paper in the state in splendid defense. of Mississippi lynching. It pays great tribute to Mississippi and scathedly attends to the lynching of a recent mistreatment and burning of three girls." Are reached directly or indirectly every week by THE INFORMER, and it is estimated that these 65,000 Negroes spend in excess of $10,000,000 per annum for the necessities of life, to say nothing of luxuries and other items. But the editor of the Mississippi paper does not belong to the low social order of mind to which the New Hampshire editors belong. The prophet was nothing short of an insult to Southern white men of the type of the editor of the Vicksburg Herald. However, the Vicksburg Herald can hold his own, and answer for himself, so we quote the following as a part of the essay: "It might surprise the Tri-State to the Herald known of no paper in the South that defends lynching. It is inconceivable that any editor worthy the name could defend mow law. No law abiding citizen can succeed in the South as murder is in its most dreadful form. It is brute force applied in an atrocious way and it is a throw-back to the methods of the dark ages. Mob law if allowed to thrive in our country was nothing free and liberty of our people. AN AD PER WEEK IS THE BEST WAY TO SPEAK! MAMMOTH PRESS ON WHICH THE INFORMER IS PRINTED "With regard to the two recent lynchings in Mississippi, it appears that the Hattiesburg lynching was a dastardly deal of a cowardly band of men, a Negro. The Shepherd case was entirely different. There is no doubt of his guilt and there in little sympathy for him. But the lynching was unjustified insofar as people taking the opportunity to could not have escaped a legal death on the gallows and punishment meted out in that manner would have been effective and would have saved Mississippi another black mark against them." "No state can thrive where lynching thrives. What thoughtful person would come to a state to make a home that stands first year after year at the head of the lynching column? No state can thrive where lynching must silence males are stopped. "We have not seen the Tri-State editorial defending Mississippi lynching, but we want to tell its editor we do not defend lynching and that no other Southern paper we know of defends mob murder. His editorial holds no interest to us save, perhaps, reading it in order to get a slant on the workings of a Yankee editor's mind." The largest percentage of foreign white population in Texas is Mexican. Next cone the Germans.

The organization has not press without which we could not have put over our association's program. The race can never overstate its debt to the two mighty institutions.

CHAIRMAN, WE WANT THE ORDER OF THE DAY AT THE FACT-FINDING CONFERENCE Chicago, 111. —(ANP) Following the meeting of the bishops of the A. M. E. Z. Church, which was held at Louisville, Kentucky, the churchmen issued a statement decriing race prejudice and intolerance, mob violence, and the lack of interest on the part of Negroes in their own political advancement. The statement, which was made public here Tuesday, urged members of the race to seek to develop character and character is far more potential than any claim of national or racial heritage. Personality, rather than class or race should be stressed more during this and with a more vital signal to the opinion of the bishops, would tend to learn race prejudice. The bishops commanded the efforts of various organizations to promote more amenable relationship between the two races here in America and to campaign. Lycoming came in for much scoring and was termed as the "dastard crime, which makes murders of citizens who become offenders and accomplices in the french rite, such as were perpetrated in Mitsoura, women and children of women and children led with ghostly glee at the torture and beauty burning of an fortunate and ignorant criminal, who might have deserved death, but was not of sufficient strength to shame upon the whole nation which is espousing the cause of Christianity throughout the world. We condemn Those who were privileged to meet in the Fact-Finding Conference which was held in Durham, North Carolina, in 1928, announced that they had found the facts. They are now calling another conference to meet in April, but this 1929 conference should not be called a Fact-Finding Conference. They will work with the worldwide to do the meeting might degenerate into a fault-finding conference. The next step for the conference to take is to set the facts up in order of their importance and significance in a program of edging, lay plans to tackle the first number, on the preface of an article, and on the prose of an essay, and women to conduct an intensive nationwide, field and publicity campaign of telltale men and women.

The next post mentioned was Paul Lalonde, a graduate student at the mind is in the most outstanding Negro writer. with all the force at our command the attitude of Governor Bilbo, and the continuance of such shameful questions." Referring to the political status of the pointed out that too few New Zealanders sufficient interest in politics to vote, "Our group," declared the statement, "in suffering because we have not learned that politics in a cold business and not a movement where sentiment should take stock and flow, because, in certain sections of the country, we are afraid of the written website at the polls and do account of our fear do not register and vote, thereby taking advantage of our rights as citizen of the great country." "In other sections," it continued, "we split up into factions and under the same banner they putting aside similar ambitions above the election time. We recommend that people in every section go to the registration booths and login their right to vote, peacefully, but resolutely and that they place the candidate above party affiliation." The statement was signed by: B. H. C. Clement, J. W. Wood, A. P. W. Clement, R. G. Shaw, E. D. W. Jones, J. W. Lalls, J. W. Martin, C. A. Allsay, W. W. Matthews and P. M. Jacob.

When the way is clear and the first project above sufficient momentum do another continued progress in the right direction, then take up the next mission, plan a campaign under the direction that they highly qualified for future joint projects, and sufficient momentum to adjust the continued progress, and so on until the race is set to work in a definite way, on all of its most aggravating problems. The 1929 meeting should not simply a "reclaiming confidence." The 1928 conference found the plaintive voice of the president, the remedy and the problem by making its pit on the facts only longer.

Both Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Sledge have had considerable experience in dealing with public affairs. Mr. Mitchell is a native of Kentucky and, for several years, was prominent in the insurance company and later, with the Webster-Richardson Publishing Company as a lineage operator.

The association has been completed to open a fourth office in Waco for the purpose of serving Central Texas. He further states that, from the reports, the association is making much progress in training the working people in getting better living conditions and employment. The report shows that more than 12,000 applicants have been given employment representing nearly every kind of work. The association has, for the last four years, endeavored to colored the people to the fact that too great a number of race people are being replaced by Mexicans on practically all jobs which colored people held previously and. Rice points out that more interested in the situation, these conditions will become more alarming and the results will be that our economic and business programs will be impeded; for no race or race group will be employed; and the nurses are unemployed or do not receive a living wage.

According to Mr. Turner's annual report, such program has been made available to the cultured people in Houston.

Several names, however, have been mentioned, notwithstanding there seems to be a sort of feeling that as Mr. Hoover is pledged to carry out President Coolidge's policies, there will be little for the group to expect. Yet, "spring ores eternal in the human breast," and the names of such persons as Dr. R. R. Motom of Tunkege, John R. Hawkins, director of Negro Republican activities during the campaign; Perry W. Howard, W. W. Hammond, national commissioner from Mississippi; Robert C. Pittsburg, Tennessee; Robert V. Pittsburg, are mentioned among those who will likely be consulted by the incoming administration should Mr. Hoover make a change in the Coolidge policies by selecting some of the group for any political plum or plums.

Splendid team work was done during the daring short pike game she played the middle of the half found the team diving on the field, and playing on the field. At this period Harding, Wiley's side was out of the game, and the field goals in rapid succession the Steers were able to gather only during the minutes of the period. Halley Harding was the outspoken warrior of the team, playing a great football game, playing a great football game, playing a great football game, Harding the rudel of the team played brilliantly, Dudley Redd, standing with his very effective防打.

John R. Hawkins is recovering from a major operation. He declines to the political unlook for the group under the forthecoming administration. PANTHER CAGERS DROP CONTEST TO Y.M.C.A.

Worth, Texas.—More than 200 Baptist ministers assembled in this city January 16-17, 1925, with the Corinth Baptist Church, Rev. B. B. Corinth, who many salts, women and men, from every part of the commonwealth, gathering, with hoary hair, faces plowed with the furrows of years, young and tender faces, the symbol of the church, and beating fresh from the schools and colleges, would have inspired the onlooker to anticipate brighter and better days in the affairs of the Texas Baptists. The spirit of fellowship, love and goodwill was in evidence during the whole session. Any one could see that the group was not being, but determined to The spirit of fellowship, love and goodwill was in evidence durin the whole session. Anyone could see that the group was not playing, but determined that the Baptist convened E. L. Harrison, the convention should be Baptist. The convention set forth very clearly to the world the principles for which they were fighting, and declared the man Rev. E. L. Harrison, their standard bearer only as a means to the end. Any other man with the same characteristics could be the leader. In discussing the situation Rev. Harrison said: "For ten years the B. M. and E. convention, though more than $200,000 has been raised and handled by the officers, has not been able to print a minute of the doings of the convention. Ports have been given to the people during these years. The convention has never been a Baptist meeting. Annual members—n. a. Christian saint—have been running the convention, or rather attempting to do so. A machine has undertaken to name its officers and perpetrate grape. Bogus portgages have been given on the property of the convention, on liens against the property without knowledge or approval of the convention, or its board of directors. Certified copies of a $4,000 loan and another of $2,618,18 which have never been reported to the溶救; the donations in denial of the right of the president to set with the power of attorney in fact, brought by the chairman of the trustees, Rev. P. W. Wesley, were all in evidence at the Fort Worth meeting. Much correspondence was dismissed during the a sheriff-sale notice for February 8, a suit for $27,000 by the Knights of Pythias Grand Lodge of the State of Texas, foreclosure on borrowed money; a suit by the Fort Worth National Bank for $5,000 which much grief to the assembled Baptists. The following principles were adopted and styled as the ten commandments to be observed and fought for: 1. A representative body constituted of duly authorized messengers from Baptist churches and Baptist organizations. 2. A government true to the polity of the Baptist church by an unimolested, unimidimated majority suffrage. 3. The elimination of annual memorials for the deceased, paco-batas and sinners, by a machine for machine strength, the destruction of dihonesty, corruption and fraud in elections. 4. An honest and open accounting to the convention of the management of all property owned by the church, by receipts and disbursements of all monies by officers and representatives of the convention. The elimination of cost-pocket constitutions, and for a printed minute of the dotings and financial handling of all money. 5. The elimination of the convention to the people; a workable program that will appeal to the intelligent business laymen of our churches, and the solicitation of the concession of our business laymen's talent in the management of the denominational work of the church. 6. The elimination of official spite and tyranny; the building up of a brotherhood that will seek the salvation of the world. The religious training of the youth of our churches, in and controlled by the denomination. The recognition of all on the basis of Christian equality with painstaking efforts to correct the wrongs, restores the dignity of the people, and the destruction of miscellaneous jealousy, hate and malice. 7. The perpetuation of the noble and worthy principles and ideals of our fathers in carrying out the great commission of Christ, the great Head of the church, and in instituting and maintaining the institution, and the control of the convention. 8. The establishment of a direct relationship between the churches affiliated with the convention and in cultivating the relationship of the rural churches and pastors. 9. A clean and impartial paper owned and controlled by the convention, non-partisan, but fair enough to open its columns to the opposite side of any question worthy of one side's discussion. A denominational paper, not a machine, is the expense of the denomination. 10. The reasonable rotation of the office of president and equal qualification of consecrated laymen to serve for any office within the gift of the convention, and especially on the board, management, where business is essential to the success of the same. The brethren made it known that any Baptist or group of Baptists who can endure and operate by the above ten fundamental principles, can find a hearty reception in their rinka. Even a union of the two factions can and again turns Tum can have to fight the one common enemy—it was the lack of such that divided them and the returning to such will remite them. The president, Rev. E. L. Harrison, also announced that he stands ready to how to such a program could be planned and should the purposes could be preserved by so doing. The meeting closed Thursday night with a great aermon by Dr. T. L. Ballon of Marshall, Texas. Dr. T. B. Bilbrow, Dallas, was elected as chair of the women's convention, George, Sr. and G. B. Williams of Denison, field missionaries; Mrs. J. M. C. Ames, Dallas, state director and missionary for the women's convention; Mrs. J. M. C. Ames, Dallas, state director of Starlight bands, and a committee of 15 women headed by Mrs. B. Johnn, Pt. Worth, and president of Willow Grove Association, with Miss Virginia B. Miller, 1919; Robin H. Hammond, to carry on the women's work for the convention, until the October convention or further announcement. All monies from women's societies for departments not represented by Mrs. Ames and Mrs. J. M. C. Ames must be sent to Mrs. Hammond.

HARISON, President Texas Baptist Fulfillment THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1929 BLEDSOE PRAISES CONFERENCE HELD HERE WITH ANTIOCH CHURCH PLANS FOR SUNDAY SCHOOL MEET 1. The great Bible conference of the National Baptist Publishing Board, U. S. A., under the auspices of Dr. A. M. H. Auer, president of the board; director; Rev. A. A. Bemm, manager; Prof. R. Alwine Aunti, musical director; Rev. W. G. Hyson, organizer and exhibitor, and Mrs. M. H. Flower, a constructive, inspiring and educational order which gave ill Horton a vision of the great need of religious education and training. As guests of the historic Antichrist Baptist Church, Horton, with its disastrous history, will attend for one week these missionary workers and educators, with Prof. Austin of Ohio an musical director, gave to Horton one of the best programs of our educational work in the history of our educational work. As president of the Texas Baptist State Sunday School Convention and member of the National Baptist Publishing Board, I wish to wish our constituents that a new day with a new vision for the church is on for functioning. It was our delight to have an opportunity to cooperate with Dr. Townsend, who is secretary of our great publishing board. I wish to ask further that we did what in a feeble way to take care of the interest and standpoint of the church, which has stood by the publishing board from its beginning and has cared in every possible way for 47 years the interest of the educational need of the child-life of the church of our convention. Dr. J. E. Knox, the great religious and educational magnet, was present at the conference and was sure for the success that attended this Bible conference. Prof. W. L. Davis, the noble and waylayman, superintendent of Antioch Baptist School and secretary of the Texas Baptist State Sunday School Convention, made fine contributions which added to the spirit and power of the church. As president, I addressed the conference Saturday night and was one of the principal speakers in the afternoon on Sunday, with a filled house, and after a short talk on "Social Heralding" in the morning, in about 29 minutes $101 was raised in behalf of the Sunday School Convention. The conference workers were chared by the support and assistance given by the president and chairman, and the spiritual interest was the highest ever known in the conference of this character, the financial interest resulted in $73,88 which was a record breaker and all Texas Baptist churches. The pride should feel proud for grand Old Antich, her pastor, and members and the cabinet of our convention. We wish to may further that we are preparing plans for the greatest Sunday School conference and international meeting ever held under American alces at Marshall, next August. The pastor of Bethlehem Baptist Church, Dr. T. L. Ballon, and minister of our Sunday school, Dr. of our district and East Tulsa are planning to give our convention and the world the best of its kind and character. Bishop College, through its presided by the faculty, has consented to throw the classroom doors open and make any contributions required for the successful operation of our convention. Dr. J. E. Knox, director of our religious educational activities, assisted by the president of the convention, is now arranging for the greatest opportunity to out the length and breadth of Texas, and we are asking all Baptists to throw open their doors, hearts and pocket-books, goodwill and cooperation to extent that a greater spirit of the fatherhood of God and brotherhood of man is offered to faculty for our mission, educational, evangelical department is now being selected with care and other considerations. Additional features of this program will be given publication as soon as definite arrangements can be made. W. P. BLEDGE, President of the Texas Baptist Sunday School Convention. THE MIRROR (Continued from Page One) his visit here both profitable and pleasant. The forty-first session of the state legislature, in biennial convention at Austin, is being delved with bills, measures and provisions of all type and character; some not beaten down, on some, while some are of vital importance to the welfare and development of the state. One proposition of primary importance to Texas is the proposed constitution amended to include the $175,000,000 good road bond issue: $175,000,000 for road building program and $75,000,000 for the shouldered the heavy financial responsibilities of constructing and maintaining roads, and the highways through said counties. Texas is largening far behind most of the American states in the construction of highways, and since the state is so large and some of the counties are not in financial position to build building programs, some method must be evolved and legalized by the state to enable these poor counties to share with the richer counties paved highways The agitation to revolutionize the pentagonial system by providing a more flexible system to moderate the system generally, is a belated start in the right direction. The system will do something definite and tangible along this line. The moment and much importance, some of our soils seem to be trying to be getting into the linehead by introducing bill just to be proposed to make ministers of the谷物 lignite the membership in the committee to make ministers the other seek to place a ban on the teaching of evolution. Darwinian the other "monkey business" in the state. Really, if we are to ban and ban the system, something that a good start could be made in the Texas legislature, judging from the class of bills which are submitted HAYNES DISCUSSES RECENT MEET OF TEXAS BAPTISTS AT FT. WORTH; SAYS WILSON REGIME ZIG-ZAGGING BY REV. M. M. HAYNES Austin, Texas in obedience to the call issued by President E. L. Harrison and the board of directors of the major faction of the B. M. and E. Convention, between 200 and 300 pastors, laymen and women assembled January 16-17 at Ft. Worth, with the Corinthian Baptist Church, Dr. B. B. Johnson, pastor. The masses assembled had an opportunity to hear the truth about all the issues facing the church trevoy now going the rounds. It has been said that we are fighting for men, which is true in part, but when the people read the declaration of fundamental Baptist principles as they will be set forth in these columns, all lovers of truth and right- ness will be able to think and think alike, will be able to reach definite conclusions for themselves. Every section of Texas was represented at this called session of the convention and they are standing solidly together with ties as strong as adamant. No one, however, wished to be Baptist ranks, but one thing is certain: Baptist fundamental principles must be accepted and upheld in order to restore peace, harmony and solidarity among Baptists. President E. L Harrison sounded the keynote to the convention that has transpired from the very beginning, events as they relate to our differences, he is still willing to arbitrate with those of the Wilson faction in keeping with the time-honored principles that govern Baptist organization. Wilson will do the same and let the people choose a third man in an open, straight-forward, honest vot of the messengers from the churches affiliated with the B. M. and E. Convention. If this is not high ground, pray where there can high ground be found? FIRST IN ADVERTISING PIECE—PAGE PIVI We deaf our hat to this trio of God's representativeness.

AGED WATCHMAN SHOOTS BANDITS AND SAVES CASH Kansas City, Kansas—(ANP)—W. W. Woods, who lacks one year of having lived his allotted three-score and ten years, was the hero of a holdup he Wednesday night. Woods was employed at a drug store here as an watchman. Wednesdays he rounded, he found himself looking down the barrel of an automatic pistol and a revolver in the hands of two bandits. The men ordered the watchman to stick 'em up and when he complied with their order went about buying the safe and cash registers. The failure of the search to search Woods proved to be their undoing. Finding himself uncovered and armed, Woods pulled his revolver and shot both of the men and saved the firm's money. Liquid DuBois, age 22, was fatally wounded, and his company, Tabler, 19, was critically injured. Woods has been in the employ of the drug store for a number of years and prior to the holdup it was the concensus of opinion that he was being retained on account of his years of experience in nursing, however, the aged watchman considered in a new light—that of a real hero. Williams Is Defeated For Y Chairmanship St. Louis, Mo.—(ANP) Frank L. Williams, principal of Summer High School, was defeated for re-election as chairman of the board of directors of Fine Street Department, V. M. C. A. Williams, the first chairman of the board and had held that office for years. The new chairman is W. J. Beckett, Summer High School teacher of physical education. A special committee investigating school conditions in St. Louis, has been appointed to the board that Prof. William, who has been principal of Summer High School for twenty years, be transferred to some other field of activity for the best interest of the school system here. Sometimes age, 7,000 signatures were attached to petitions, declaring that the school principal was at an end. The petitions which were turned over to the school board, had the following introductory: "We, the underarmed citizens of St. Louis, believe that the interests of education in this city will be best served by the work of Frank L. Williams from the principalship of Summer High School." FLEMING ance, have expressed confidence in the integrity of Fleming and have offered their support. Typifying the statements issued by organizations, is that the Seventh Ward Republican Club and its president, is president, which was as follows: "The recent incident of Thomas W. Fleming with charges of bribery and the manner in which it is treated is a new feature is equivalent to trying the case and verifying a verdict outside of the courts provided for that purpose. We, with a membership of nearly 5,000 people, outreach and inform Fleming of the situation, have implicit faith in the integrity of Thomas W. Fleming and a confidence in no wipe shaken by these sensational reports." MRS. L. V. GOODE MRS. L. V. GOODE TREACHER OF PIANO Limited Class Personal Attention. Handcraft and Rhythmic Work Sewing.

"It is with sincere regret that they lose the wise and kindly service of President D. C. Gilmore after the school administered the college so well; and of his devoted white associates, who have left their funnies on Bishop students for a much longer time. But it is believed by the trustees and by the faculty that the time that the school has come to place a Negro president at the head of the school. The time and the man have met. We have elected to the presidency one who is generally regarded as the most capable state and the foremost educator among the alumni of Bishop College, Professor Joseph J. Rhonda, principal of Booker T. Washington High School of Dallas and president of the Colleges of Dallas and Public Association of Texas. "This transfer of the school to a Negro faculty does not mean any lessening of the support and direction of the students. This should be clearly understood. "But it does intrinsically mean that Negroes will take more interest in the school, and have more responsibility for its support and its management. Negroes will take more interest in the school, as of white schools, to give more thought and money for its advancement. "In order to secure this, the new management is absolutely free from any restrictions on the school. It will make it his unvarying policy to cooperate with all conventions and parties and with all other groups of influential Negroes in the state. Only by united effort can the ends sound. Any faction could have been elected president. "President Rhodes, by his nature and his chosen policy, will not be able to prevent that there shall be only one party among Negro Baptists in the state."

That which landed among the stones, the thorns and in the barren places, perished. Only the seeds which reached the good ground had a chance to grow. The modern advertiser does not strew his seed of salesmanship to the winds.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1929 THE BLACK MAN IN THE WORLD'S LITERATURE THE BLACK MAN IN THE WORLD'S LITERATURE By THOMAS L. G. OXLEY (For The Associated Negro Press) The foremost living poet and novelist of the Dominican republic is Fable Fiallo. He is a writer who has kept close to true literature and who has written many important language country by giving it more grace, beauty and flexibility. Fiallo was born in 1868 in Santo Domingo City, Republic of Dominica, West Indies. He received his education in the schools there. He was for a time minister of the capital of Santo Domingo, the naval officer of Santo Domingo City, and general in the army. He was minister to Cuba, consul general in New York and Hamburg. For sometime Senior Fiallo has been managing editor of following newspapers: La Bandaera, La Campana, and La Netasica. Fallon stands out today as the most educated "pod of his people." His poems are always fresh, sublime, clean-cut and well-challenged. What he does is to inscribe his vivid and vigorous, and his rhythm is often melodious beyond any other writer of equal merit and strength. His sonnets, especially when he forgets himself, are so beautiful that language. They are all distinguished by an earnestness of purpose and energy of style. He paints with his poems the human heart—unfolding by a word or an epithet its immeasurable feel. He writes a poetical mind laboring in poetry. He is a true poet. He has written many beautiful poems. He has not sung a tender ditty or two, then shut his lips to listen to the applause they beating, but has written much—sometimes touchingly, sometimes faintly. He excels in short and neat things; yet he has poured out his fancy and his feelings through the evolutions of a continuous narrative and intricate story. The flow of his language is remarkable; his fancy is fancy and his poetry through his poetry is like one of the rivers of his country—a lovely lagoon. The traditions of his Spanish parents have been, moderately and uniquely used by the poet in both his prose and literary writings. As a poet, he is a reasoner and a reasoner. Falsa knows when to be tender with love. He should tense as love. Here is a short poem which is worthy of the naked hard that ever wrote. It is called "Lily and Rose." They smoke, of the grace of the flow. And each had a choice of his own—Some of them praised the roses, And some would the lilies enthrone. And I thought of your check, beloved. Which the color of youth displease, I thought of that evening kiss. And then I was all for the rose! But remembering your pale forebend, Than omnine more pure and more faint; Where like butterflies ness your I found the lilies beyond compare! Here is another short poem entitled The Mystery? Over my verses that praise her, Her image floats, pensive and fair; An over the lily's petals Flaits the perfume maddling the air. But seek not her name in my verses, Though over her grace they preach, Though over her grace they preach, Shall vibrate with the notes of her name. Only death can reveal the dear secret Which my heart has guarded so long; Only death when my lips shall utter Her sweet name as my final song. The music is unbroken. Every line is well-measured. The sentiment is sublime. It has one prominent and fixed character and that character belongs wholly to itself. I could go on quoting him forever, and the space division will hold all of our best notes regarding his prose works. When Fiallo had fixed his character as a poet, and the public looked only for poetical productions from him, he suddenly came forth as a prose writer, and with still added proofs of intellectual vigor. His prose writers are the most interesting cities of his poetry. Their theme is love, and their demonstration that love is fraught with destruction and desolation. But there are other qualities manifested in the tales. The prose page is for him a wider tablet, on CHICHESTERS PILLS Washington, D. C., President Merdecal W.

His widow should with pride of a shared possession of society, with respectfully presented an esteemed collection of autographs. But when surprise and delight more than all, the sound and two epitaphs of humanity, and the boundless holdiness with which his opinions are expressed, the clearness of his mind, the clarity of his heart, and the event advancement of the past, unleashed through his writings, but applauded the last do to heart his heart. His writings remain to be not more truly appreciated in this country. He is the author of "Pentlandia Scenicist's Journal," "The Gull's Gill," (variety), "Stonewall Blair Monarch," (variety), "San Francisco Blair Odio," (variety), "Elmo Y Horton" (essay), "George Collin," (variety), "Nueva Poetry," (variety), "The Politics, (political writings), and "Decloons Do So Tame."

FIXWATTE, I.D., Dumfries Broadway, Belfast, Ireland) (42. 1828, Western Newspaper Club) LESSON TEXT-II Tit. 11:4-14 DOLBY TEXT-II Upon them open, open that I may behold wondrous things out of my law. I will I. The Scriptures Are Divinely Inspired. (II Tim 3:18). The first thing to be assured concerning the Cannonical Scriptures is that the Scripus God is at "many thou" and in dives manners" speaking to man (Heb. 1:1). Paint in this passage the utterance that the utterance of Holy Wax were God's breath in many mouths. The Holy Scriptures do not the Word of God, but he is verity the message of God, but man. The main cause of the moral break is that man have been raised of the authoritative message from God. N. The Value of the Scriptures (11:16-17). R. It should make wine into halvation (v. 15). Salvation is in Christ alone. It is secured through faith in His finished work on the cross. True wisdom leads to salvation, and it is through the other name under heaven given among men shepherd we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and without the shading of there is no remission (Heb 9:22). Discipline the life (v. 16, 17). In this "dereite" is set forth the other name under heaven, since there is only place to find the teaching of God in His Holy Word. It not only is forth a standard of life, but it represents a true way. The way to represent God is by demonstration but with a positive presentation of truth. The Word corrects (gets straight the disclosures of personal matters) and rightness, the rightness, and equips for service. The Nature and Effects of God's Law (Pus. 19:7-11). It is without flaw; converts and restores the soul; turns man back to holiness and to God. It is absolutely dependable. God cannot be Man's resounding change, but God's Word endures forever. It makes man the simple. Not only does God make man the simple, but it registers the legitimate things of this world. The precepts and judgments of the Lord are expressions of absolute belief. They fill the belief with relics. 4. Pure. There is in it no mixture of error. 5. Pure. It is in it nothing but truth in matter. Because of this it enlightens the eye. 6. The Word affects the life, its cleaning is from within and from without. 7. True and righteous. 8. True and Word are true, without exception. 9. The judgments of God’s Word are unimpeachable. Because of those qualities God’s Word is excellent gold. Oblivance邪恶 Great reward The Prairie of the Believer (Pra. 1920) The life brought to face with God’s Word is seen as sinful. The Lord is clear. 1. Cleansing (v. 12) The perfect wives reveal the imperfections of the life. The Word of God of the Individual may be immanent (Ia. 6.5). 2. To be kept from presumptious ill. (v. 13) Presumptious ill, arrogant sins are peculiarly dangerous. In the Mouste economy no mercy was provided for such. 3. Precious from the dominion of such sins. (v. 13) How awful in the slavery of those who are in bondage to presumptious ill. 4. That the words of the mouth and meditation of the heart be kept accepted. Gao's right. From how dangerous the heart can be freed if the words and meditations of the heart were kept in line with the Holy Scriptures.

C., will be productive of the further information desired. It is unfortunate that so few of the Negro businesses of the country have access to such fonts and informations as are tapped by the National Negro Business League at the annual conventions of that organization. For the benefit of the many who missed a splendid on "The Future of the Small Merchant," pre-merchant August 14th at the New York meeting, information has been extracted and some highly useful information called and passed along to our readers: and Accident Insurance Company held January 14 at the short off at this meeting the board of direct declared their first annual divide it will be payable in February. Norfolk—At the 23rd annual building of the Norfolk Home Building Loan Association the treasurer repaired receipts for the year 1928 had taken more than $10,000. St. Louis—The New Age Build and Loan Association declared an annual dividend of 5% at its last line and the Retail business in the United States is undergoing changes which are almost as sweeping as those which followed the introduction of power driven machinery. The real cause for these changes is the increasing earning power of labor. It is not possible to give skilled clerks it, but it is possible that they can get an skilled mechanics and make any money out of a small store. A store selling $2,000 worth of goods a year has weekly sales of $1,000, and at 23 per cent net profit, which is the most that many lines of goods will stand, this gives the storekeeper $2 a week for his share. That may in some parts of the country represent a fair return for the work and worry of directing a $222,000 worth of merchandise that represents no more than a well-trained mechanic can get if work is even moderately continuous. And yet, the recent census of distribution taken in eleven cities shows that out of 80,000 independent stores in all trades only 11.24 per cent did more than $50,000 a year each. Thus, the independent store business, but these 70,000 stores below the $50,000 were paying their own fees less than $25 a week in profits. Moreover, 28.05 per cent of the independent stores did less than $2.50 a week profit, which, of course, is less than a low wage for unskilled labor. This low charging power of retail businesses costs the store owners the spread of chain store organizations. Of the 95,000 stores covered by the census of 11 cities over 15 per cent belonged to chain store organizations, and these did nearly 30 per cent of all the retail business done in 41 trades in the 11 cities. The price of managerial brains is being spread over 3 or more stores, and in this way the new conditions in the retail environment are being examined. As you examine farther into the possibilities of retail business as a field for colored people let me urge you to keep these facts in mind. Apparently many of those who are now in retail business an independent merchant are selling their brains at an auction, as a mark of other words, they are paying too high a price for nominal independence. The probabilities are that the lot of the small merchant will grow worse than better at time goes on. It is my conviction that chain store operations can be a field of retail operations for both white and colored people during the next few years offer many advantages over small scale independent stores. Society apparently is making up its mind that it can benefit from the many as many small shopkeepers as it once did; and the small storekeeper in exchange for his nominal independence is going to be given an adequate wage by the larger organizations in the retail business, or is going to earn more, or even more advantage, even if more active and exegeting pursuit.

For several years now these events, in which the schools of practically every county take part, have been one of the chief events in the school calendar. The spelling bee is another of the schools. Contents are held in each town and then in each county. The county winners meet and "spell down" at the state bee. The same plan is followed for the oratorical contest which is confined to the student of high schools. Intense interest and friendly rivalry among the students and teachers of Oklahoma City resulted, principally in increased school attendance, as well as a com- FIRST IN INFLUENCE—PAGE SEVER RASPBERRY CHARLOTTE 1 package raspberry jumket 1 pint milk Lady fingers Raspberry jam 1 egg white 4 tablespoon sugar Coconut Spread lady fingers with jum and line dessert glasses with them.

R. Jones of the New Orleans area of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the past four or five years, has been engaged in developing a project at Gail Lake, Waveland, Mimi., with the help of the National Center for Negroes in the national center for Negroes. He is accrued in securing title to some guilt coat property comprising a league of land fronting on the Gulf of Mexico, in one the most desirable spots on the Mississippi coast. When he was appointed to dispatched old drowning knights on the Jackson House and said once to have been the home of former President Andrew Jackson, there was no sign of civilization to indicate that human feet had ever tried that soil. This was kick in April, 1921. Since that time, Buck into an assembly ground that richest the best. He was led to establish this enterprise by reason of the fact that he had visited such centers as Silver Lake, Geneva, Winona Lake, Blue Lake, Ridge, Northfield, and Oak Ridge, into an assembly ground that the latter lack of some place where the Negro might go for rest and recreation: Gulfside has involved much more and worry on part of Bishop Jones, but its prefect's status and outlook seem to amply justify the cost in every way. It was on the grounds of addition to the old museum which had been completely overhauled and built in first class shape, being thoroughly modernized, three other public buildings, an open air pavilion, three or four beautiful and well furnished cottages, and practically every convenience to be found in a big city. The most important song, has been variously estimated to be worth from three hundred thousand to, during park of boom, a million dollars. It has just within the interaction of three lines of communication—the Landville and Nashville Railroad, Old Chicago and New York, and deepaway between Mobile and Glen Harbor. Every summer the place is a vibrant believable of activities—cultural educational, religious and social. At least thirty different organizations meet each year for a period of three months of activities, special attractions are sponsored by the Guildford Association for the people in the many vicinity, including New Caledon and Mobile-excursions, and hiking pilgrims and the Hue which carry a following of thousands of people at closely intervals. Guildford is providing about 100 visitors each year to the existence of the Nigroe, and it is the hope of the founder, R. K. Jones, to have it serve not only as a summer resort and annually groups for meeting of the leadership of various groups in the summer then, but that it shall serve as a retreat for vacations seeking a cool and cold World. It is an ideal place for this purpose, having a delightful even climate and exquisite scenery. Bishop Jones has done the race a service for which it will forever be his debtor. Gulfide affords a first place for contacts not only racial but interracial. So impressed have the Metropolitan and Rosewood people with the work of the clan it has cloned in their list of philanthropy. Gulfide has no contempt as an as-Negrose are concerned. There is nowhere in America that the Negro can go and enjoy the Algae which Gulfide affords, undisturbed and to his heart's content. S. Government, set March 1 as the date for closing relief work.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1929 HOUSTON COLLEGE SALE HALTED! Through the activities of Attorney John H. Barbour of Galveon, legal counsel of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas, of which Rev. E. Arlington Wilson, Dallas, is the accident, the sale of Houston College property, scheduled for the fall of 2015, to satisfy a judgment held by Prof. John W. Beverly, has been halted. This legal step temporarily saves the denation stigma and disgrace of losing their local holdings through the failure of the conventional leaders to pay Mr. Beverly for his labor as president of Houston College. Mr. Beverly took the Christian attitude that he did not want to use the denationation loss its valuable holdings because of the failure to fight against the property in his favor, and he kindly agreed to not pay Mr. Beverly. While the denationation has been temporarily relieved from this embarrassing situation, there are numerous other creditors who must be satisfied immediately, or this property will be lost to the denationation and race after all. According to information gathered by The Informer, Houston College has denied debts, mortgages, liens and loans, ranging between $6,000 and $7,000, and that because the denationation has neither cash, credit nor standing to stave off court action by the many creditors. It seems that the custom has been for the conventional administrations, to go, the limit on loans and mortgages on this college property, and though much of the money was obtained under the denationation, the school, most of the money has been diverted into other charges. In face of this stairing situation, the two factions among this wing of Texas Baptists are spending considerable money for legal counsel and court costs in a fight for offices and "spoils;" and like the cats in the table, fussing, bickering and fighting over the cheese, the monkey, who served as arbor, finally consumes the money (quitting to head to jail 60) involving and discover to their sorrow and regret that their last physical holding has irretrievably lost to the denomination and race. Aside from this loss of material possessions, the denomination also stands in imminent danger of losing its spiritual power with an ever-increasing bad spirit becoming more manifest among the two warring groups. The monkey can hope to make very little, if any, headway in bringing simmers to the Prince of Peace, when the professed disciples and apostles of the Lowly Nazarene are conducting themselves in a manner becoming sinful denizens of the underworld, who fall out, battle and then make up without outside interference. If the leaders of the two opposing groups are sincere in their desire for peace and really desire to save the denominational prophets, they must consent to a joint conference, devote themselves to hours of prayer for divine guidance in taking the right course, and then answer their own prayers by burying the hatchet, and effect a compromise by placing some outstanding layman at the head of the convention? The Informer understands that one of the leaders involved in this denominational controversy has openly committed himself to the cause, and by placing (1) brother has stated his unresolved opposition to such a move. Will the Negro Baptists of Texas permit one selfish, self-centered, and self-serving Baptist preacher to wreck the denomination, disgrace the race and church and cause the denomination and racial group, to lose the physical holdings which represent the blood and sweat of their lamented fathers and mothers, and missionary and educational left in the hands of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas for the religious leaders to declare an armistice and stop playing into the devil's hands? What is attached to the office of president of this convention which would so actuate and motivate men in a mad, mean and wild scramble for the office? What is known that there are "easy pickings" for the "administration," and have preceding administrations become fat and affluent as a result of feasting at this denominational pie-counter? Since the office of conventional president pays no salary as such, why would any minister of the gospel, or layman, be so "hog wild" for the position? Have the Negro Baptists and laymen form themselves into factions, groups, cliques and clans in order to perpetuate a certain political dynasty in office? Have the Negro Baptists of Texas become so bereft of man power, common sense and intelligence that men outside of the state must dictate who shall and who shall not be president of the state convention? Would the Baptists of Illinois or Ohio permit a Texas pastor, leave the state as a former pastor in either state, to maintain control over their state organization and dictate the titular leader of the convention? In electing a president of such an organization, should the man seek and machinate for the office, or should the office seek the man? If they do, these ministers can not adjust their differences and work in Christian unity for the good of the cause, race and social fabric, then it is high time that we either procure new religious leadership, or padlock our supposed houses of Christian worship. If the ministers will not assume the lead in a statewide conference to harmonize the views of the church, they should allow the lavers to should assert their manhood and take the initiative in such an undertaking; for the enemies of the race, who contend that the Negro can not man and operate any big project or movement, are being given considerable solace and comfort by the past and present actions of some of our Baptist leaders in Texas. Finally, brethren, "a house divided against itself can not stand," and this is as true in the religious field as it is in the domestic realm; and any man, be he preacher or layman, who is too stupid and obtuse to realize this patent fact, is unfit for leadership. "BLACK CABINET" BEING MENTIONED Not to be outdone by the white cabinet makers, who are quite buoy selecting men for the official family of President-elect Herbert C. Hoover, who will assume the executive functions of the republic on March 4, the "brother" seems to be actively engaged just now in a similar undertaking, and many of the "faithful" are being mentioned for federal posts under the new administration. Just when the "brother" had hopes of regaining the post of register of treasury for the race, President Goodge made a hurried appointment of a white man to the vacant post and the Senate immediately confirmed the appointment; thus making it appear as if the Negro race will be forced to content itself without this office, which Negroes always held prior to the Wilson administration. The Informer again reiterates what was said in these minutes immediately after the presidential election, to the effect that the racial leaders, who were most active in the campaign for the election, would have had considerable control over not upon jobs, but upon a concerted and well-defined drive for justice to all members of their race. Too often it happens that the men who are in a position to help their race by contending for things which will benefit the entire group, are easily satisfied and rewarded by accepting some minor political plum; and if an exception is proven to this general rule during the Hoover administration, it will mark the first time in the history of the American Negro that our political leaders have demonstrated such a broad and unselfish attitude along this line. No race can get very far from the abhorrence of human endeavor and the corrosion of esteem in that which these leaders will who literally sell their birthright for a more mess of polygammen who think only in terms of themselves and theirs. The Informer is not taking the position that Negroes should forego or forcewise political preferment, nor does this paper contend that they should not aspire for public office; but this paper does insist that the effort to secure such portfolios should not be made paramount to securing and vouchsaving to the racial group its inherent and constitutional rights and presuppose that the federal government must protect justice and inequality must be the race's bitter fate in compensation for such political emoluments, then let jobs be made secondary to justice. THE HOSPITAL SITUATION The Informer, having taken the lead in exposing and baring some of the things which are hampering the Houston Negro Hospital, is hopeful that these conditions will be remedied in the immediate future and that the institution will be afforded a chance to serve the Negro race and community as the donor so much desired and desires. Despite the fast that some have referred to this hospital situation, do you do about nothing" the attenuated relation between the present superintendent on one side and the colored doctors and Negro citizens on the other, could not and can not be passed over by the mere statement that somebody is trying "to make a mountain out of a mole-hill." Such talk is idle clatter! The Informer firmly believes that most differences can be ironed out and the average breach headed, if men will be governed by reason and common sense, rather than by passion and prejudice. Whatever this paper has said or printed about the hospital situation, has been done with a view of remedying conditions at the institution, and nothing has been uttered in spite or a revenged spirit. The Informer is interested in this hospital, and because of that unselfish interest we deemed it our duty to tell just where some of the trouble lis in the conduct and operation of the institution. At the mass meeting of colored citizens held at Wesley Memorial African Methodist Episcopal Church, last Sunday afternoon which was addressed by Judge W. W. Moore, chairman of the white advisory committee and legal counsel to Hon. J. S. Cullman, donor of the hospital, and Hon. William Straus, chairman of the Houston Community Chest and also a member of the white advisory committee and legal counsel to Hon. J. S. Cullman, donor of which, if executed, will bring about the desired results at this Third Ward electonymary institution. In common with all colored citizens, doctors and laymen, The In former will, with certain reservations, accept the proposals submitted by Judge Moore and Mr. Strauss at Sunday's get-together meeting; for, after all is said and done, it was literally a heart-to-heart conference where the matter was discussed freely and frankly on both sides; and this paper believes that much good will be achieved by the government. Finally, the matter has been placed squarely up to the proper authorities, and the destiny of this hospital lies in their hands. FLAMING AND FOOLISH YOUTHS! Can our youths be flaming without being foolish? Is it necessary for them to act the fool in order to convince people of their innocence? Can our modern youths enjoy themselves without creating wild and boisterous scenes and going to excesses and extremes? Have our parents completely released the parental reins upon their offspring? Have we stopped inculcating into our childrenummers, common decency, culture, refinement and other attributes so necessary for their success in life? These and other queries are prompted by our observations of the actions and antics of so many of our young people—mostly of high school age—whose conduct and deportment have on the vulgar and base in the剧院, on street cars and other public places. Our (racially speaking) children are too noisy, boisterous and uncouch, and many of them seem to think that much noise and loud talking are indicative of smartness and cleverness; that they should be both heard and seen, and that if they are not seen, they certainly will be heard—and how! Whenever this "gang" (used advisedly) gets on the scene, whether in church, theatre, on the streets or in common carriers, its members reflect discredit upon them, so that they do not relish the idea of one informing them about the shortcomings and misbehavior of their children; and these youngsters, knowing the indulgence, if not encouragement of their parents, do not have much respect for their seniors from an age standpoint. We know that children are not adults, and that one can not make them grown until they have reached maturity, but one does not have to be grown or attain his or her major before knowing how to act and deport himself or herself in public places. It is no unusual incident to visit some local area and behold a murderer, or foolish person in a disfigured and shameful manner while the playhouse is in small darkness. If these young folks continue to be flaming and foolish, one OPINIONS Cimbee's Ramblings WHY NOT A NEGRO ON PROHIBITION COMMISSION By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C. merely serve as race recognition, but importantly help to promote the greatest end in view. It is deeply to be regretted that the Negro has not as yet seemed to grasp the deep moral significance of the eighteenth amendment to the 18th Amendment of public opinion have generally either joined in the general ridicule and derision of the law, or at best have given it the advantage or disadvantage of their silence. And yet this same provision, if upheld, spells the salvation of the Negro; but if annulled, it would be the result of the commission would tend to give its findings greater consideration and favor in the eyes of a race whom it is calculated to save, but who are made the tool of the master minds of white operators and serve as distributors of illegal beverage, not only for the benefit of the white indigents as well. The race as a whole has not felt the moral meaning of the eighteenth amendment that it has been made fully conscious of the moral inconsistency involved in insisting upon being the beneficiary of the moral responsibility of violating and condoning violation of another. During the last campaign, candidate Dhevera host said, he regarded the eighteenth amendment as a noble experiment which should be dealt with constructively. He added but one further experiment that he wanted to the effect that a commission should be appointed to look into the matter. Definitive methods of dealing with the troublesome issue, sponsored by his outspoken opponent, failed to effect any further prerequisites. Governor Smith has lost and Mr. Hoever has won, he repeats his campaign declaration of purpose to appoint such a commission. This must be regarded as Mr. Hoever's own perseverance in question. It is not be found in the Republican platform nor was there any formal discussion of the proposal during the campaign. Indeed spellbinders on both sides artistically sided up the issue with a few dour admirations by the people to enforce the eighteenth amendment, both as a sworn constitutional duty and by specific provision vigorously. The details of the method of enforcement were not disclosed with the advice and congratulations. It is well and good to assign colorado men to governmental stations where they serve the nation regarding the needs of the people; it is well to give them function where they can serve race as well as nation. In placing a labor leader on a labor board, the obvious intention is that the laborer be a class of which he is an exponent. Government by commission is not in good repute on Capitol Hill. Past experience does not justify any rosette design. The commission has usually accumulated volumes of dust, dry statistical and historical material which are read only by the secretary of the commission who is under the penalty of editing the commission's report. The commission the appointment of a tariff commission to deal scientifically with the question of imports, it was none other than Secretary Hughes who declared that the tariff could not be a scientific and non-ornamental fashion. The range of places accorded to the colored race is a gradually lessening one. The minitorship to Hali has been closed for sixteen years.

We are living in a day of research and surveys. "Smoke out the facts"—cries the student and the statesman imbued with the modern sociological spirit and point of view.

A hundred years of investigation will not make any plainer the fact that President Nicholas Murray Butler and William Randolph Hearst deciety this provision of the constitution and openly proclaimed the right to it. So long as this defiant attitude is allowed to ungoebble by the government at Washington, research and survey can avail but little. It is of historian suggestiveness to throw in comparison the attitude of a former president when a distinguished threatened to nullify, not the constitution, the right to a law of congress.

RICHARDSON, Jr.) Marshall, Texas—All the past week has been given over to semi-quarter exams and the majority of the students have been buoy as they prepared for them. Saturday the Bishop augers defeated the Texas College Steers by a score of 8-16. The team as a whole played good ball after the first half and in the last half the Steers only made one field goal and a free throw. Praise cannot be bestowed upon any one individual“as the entire team showed a well-might unbeatable passing attack and perfect fire-man. The Bishop Beam and Wiley Wildes was postponed until February 16. In the meantime the Bears are practicing out daily under the direction of Coach A. W. Mumford. Fiftemen of the 1982 football team receive sweaters and four received letters on Wednesday of this week. Coach Coffey Wiley Wildes and Wiley Wildes were present at the presentation which was in chapel. O. W. Phillips, a Bishop alumni, also snook. Four of the Bears who covered the coveted sweaters have put on the blue and white for the last time. They are Laudell Roberz, Joe Wilson, W. C. Broadnax, and T. Wiley Wildes. They keenly felt on the campus as well at the gridron. Much interest is being manifested in the coming recital of Miss Ernestine Jene Covington in the college chapel.

It appears that too many parents have forsaken their holden duty of properly raining and training their children, and are content to let them roam and "raise" themselves; many of these parents delegating this task to the public school teachers, who are not employed nor paid to teach children the things they should learn around the family fireside. Our young people constitute a real problem before it is everlastingly too late, for the time to solve this problem before it is a sipping. Solomon, in his proverb, admonishes parents to bring up their children in they way THEY SHOULD GO and when they are old they will not depart from such teaching and training. Illustrated FEATURE SECTION THE HOUSTON INFORMER "Jim caught him by the back of his coat collar and dragged him out on the ground." 'S ER es R. Hawkins LOVE'S ANSWER by James R. Hawkins --- "Jim caugh collar and LOVE'S ANSWER by James R. ELEN was one of those colored girls described as being of fair complexion with sandy red hair. She was pretty, at least everyone said so. She was not spoiled, but apt at times to let a little flattery go to her head. At twenty-one she was a little coquettish, more from environment than by nature. Always good natured, and with a cheerfulness that was at times likely to be misunderstood. She had recently come north to live with an aunt, and worked in one of the few first class eating places for colored in the city. She dressed well, because she bought her own clothes, and if there was anything that she could do it was to select nice clothes. She had a graceful form, and, like most girls so blessed, she was proud of it. Into this place where Helen worked, one day came Jim Howard. Jim was one of those fellows put down by the "fast set" as "old fashioned" and bashful. He was neither, but he was discriminating. Flappers held no charm for him; his books were his pals, and he spent most of his time with them. Studying, which had been denied him in his youth, was now his hobby. He was ambitious. It is true that he was not what could be called a ladies' man, but there was something about Helen that made him look at her twice, which was a Interesting, Entertaining and Instructive GEORGE S. SCHUYLER Feature Editor ```markdown ``` Section 2—Saturday, February 2, 1929 Hawkins record for him. While he did not believe in love at first sight, he did believe one could like very much at the first sight; and this is what he did. A new force had begun to move within him; was it love? There was the coquettish smile, and she said "Alright-e," but beneath that Jim thought he saw something more, a little of the old fashioned girl. Jim liked Helen. HIS PROBLEM GROWS SERIOUS Jim's problem grew more serious each day, he just had to talk to Helen, but how to start he did not know. Was she married? This troubled him. How would he find out? He had said that he would not make a fool of himself for any woman, but things are easy to say. He had one hope. Coming in as he did from work, oftimes he had a book or two with him; she had asked several times to see them and read their titles, but never had she expressed a desire to borrow one, which was what Jim wanted her to do. He hoped that she would, for, as he put it, that would "break the ice." Her interest in books had encouraged him, for that was the kind of wife he wanted if he ever married. "If I could just get her to talk about books for a start," he almost moaned, "then I could work myself in." He did get his chance, just as he had dreamed --- Clean, Wholesome and Refreshing Foreign Advertising Representatives: W. B. Ziff Co., 608 S. Dearborn St., Chicago, Ill. ```markdown ``` and prayed he would. One day as he came in with a little volume of short stories she asked if she might read it when he had finished with it. His desire for dinner was gone. "I've read it already," he lied; and added: "A pal of mine just gave it back to me." WALKING ON AIR For several days Jim walked on air; it was that long before he could get back to the little eating place. He planned over in his mind many things to say to her when he saw her again, only to become almost tongue-tied when he did see her. As he entered she greeted him with: "Why, hello, Jimmie, you're quite a stranger." "How did you learn my name," he asked, grinning foolishly. "Oh, it was in the book," she answered with a little smile, and added: "I think it a wonderful little book." "There are ten of them in the set," he informed her. "May I read some of the others, too?" she asked with a smile that would have made Helen of Troy look like she was crying. "Sure!" he answered nervously. "I have about two hundred books in all — a young library." "Maybe you will lend me lots of them; you --- A good tonic that keeps you feeling well St.Joseph's G.F.P. The Woman's Tonic see. I read a lot when I can set the " books. I told her that she could read all of them, that he would make her a list of them. That will be awful sweet of you," she said, as she handed him his change. For several days this year began to be good for Jim. "Jimme's was his name, and he was as if he was a carnered, and she said it with an acent that he flared. They talked of them and and authors had even of them's selves. Who's left me would say, "Rye, Jimnie." He was happy. HAPPY AS A LARK Jim had never had a job in his life, and his job that happened to him. They knew that something had happened, but what it was not known to me, wondering, too, but on a different subject. "Have I found her at last?" he pondered. There was one thing he knew that he loved her. Jim had never had a state with a girl in all his life, and he always had two of them " chastful, always friends put it up. Yervhaps, he could have had dates, but he did not care about a type of called a state with most of them he would be a little hard to be. He wanted to go to the same place. He was hard job. Jim had fought in the late war; he had even fought hard to hand. He was so good that he was different. It took a different kind of nerve, especially when in his mind that girl did not love him. He was so good that he was so good to him as a girl for a date, but he almost knew that she would refuse. "Maybe," he responded, "I had better not work so fast." He could not remain for long but this state, so he made up his mind to go to the world. He had a movie with him. Heen seemed to like him pretty well by this time. "Helen," he stammered one evening. "So, he's a good man, he's going to go to the show with me tonight." "Well, to tell you the truth, Jim- mile," she said, "You see, my club meets tonight, and you know how that is." Jim agreed that he knew. "Will you go some other night this week?" he pleaded. "Oh, maybe," she answered, without much assurance. Jim felt sick. Now it cannot be said that Helen did not like Jim. In a way she did. He was considered intelligent, and was interesting to talk to at times but to go out with him, that was quite another thing. He did not dance and cared very little for wild parties. In fact, he was listed as a social " that they" and who wanted to go out with a flat line? In the language of her more sophisticated sisters, "it just wasn't being done." Jim decided to try the look again. Wouldn't you like to begin each day with a freshness of energy that enables you to sail bravely through your world or to play just as hard as you worked?

" Well, he was mailed to the school, " I can't make a fool of well-off looking bag again. " Jim never knew how it happened, but one evening he found himself going home with Helen. He never had a good feeling for the day. It was no use. For some distance there was silence, save for comment on some passing object: " But there was no direction to do it, but there was something he wanted to say, and he was going to say it. It might prove his undoing, but he just had to say it and stake all, for without any change. " " He's a little more like you, " " Helen, he broke the silence.

" Good-bye, Helen," he said, as he turned to go. " Marry, marry," sighed Helen as she dropped down on her bed and began to laxily untie her shoes; " not for this chicken—we live but once."

After walking up and down the street for a while, Jim made his way to the little town. Helen looked up in surprise; she knew that he had had his lunch. She greeted him rather coolly as he walked up to her. "Helen," he said, "there is something we'll tell you; it is for your own good." "Well!" she questioned, rather unconcerned.

"Who is giving this dance, Van?" asked someone as Jim went over and sat down. "This is a fraternity affair," he answered, glancing at Jim. "Only the college fraternity can go. You know, I like to take a kid like this to those affairs; they know their stuff. She ain't one of mama's baby girls, she's her." Van knew that Jim was not a college man but had always wanted to be.
