After a heated andhetic election, Prof. G. W. Edward, Gonzalez, was chosen, and Jackson, and Columbus was selected as the 1930 coventation city.

We will be putting their time and talent to music in a race along musical and aesthetic lines.

That Houstoniana appreciate delicate local crafts and support a local level will cause them to invest in their purchase of tickets and attend a four annual spring musical festival at Ridge-Taylor Choral Club, Tuesday night, March 19, 1929. The effort now being launched by a group of local business and insurance companies, the local line reserve insurance company in Texas—the Gibraltar Life Insurance Company in local, sectional and national attention. This columnist is in receipt of letter from the former grand chancellor of the Kentucky Pythians and at present the co-owner of the accepted Masons of the Blue Grass State, and P. R.

In his letter Mr. Garvin states: "I will present the stipulations in order upon the organization of the Gibraltar Insurance Company of Texas to founders and no doubt will be one of the valued officers. It is my impression that I will be out in a field in which you should be long ago. I am sure with the class of men backing the Gibraltar, that I find WEST VIRGINIA LIBRARY FIGHT ENDED BY WRIT New York.—T. Gillis Nutter, attorney for the Charleston West Virginia branch of National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in its successful legal fight against a segregated public library in that city, forwards to the national office of the N. A. A. C. P. a copy of a peremptory writ, obtained by himself and his associate, C. E. Kimbrough, Sr., ordering the Charleston Board of Education to admit colored people to the library at all proper hours. The writ, issued by the Circuit Court of Kanaan County, closes a bitterly contested case, and says in part that: "a persons comprising said Board of Education as such officers are hereby commanded in the name of the State of West Virginia to forthwith remove and revive them, said Charleston Public Library the said W. W. Sanders, Anderson H. Brown, E. W. Sanders, Anderson H.

He was also deren of the Board of Education was without legal justification. CLUB TO AWARD CASH PRIZES TO HIGH STUDENTS Ken rivalry is already being manifested between the student bodies of Yates, Washington and Wheatley senior high schools, in the sale of tickets for the fourth annual spring musical festival by the Coleridge-Hawks, March 19, 8:30 o'clock promptly. The contest is between the HI-Y boys' clubs at these three local high schools, and four prizes will be awarded, viz: Five dollars ($5) in gold to the boy at each school selling the highest number of tickets, and a trip to the concert where each school which meets at Wichita Falls, April 12-14, for one boy in the local high school which leads in the sale of tickets for this concert, which (proportionally given principally as a benefit for the Y. M. G. C. A. building fund). The Yates students, by Principals of the regular prize will be theirs, while Washington and Wheatley students, by Miller and E. O. Smith, are actively, maintain that they are "from Missouri" and must be shown. Thus the fight is already flying from three schools. Wifey Gets Divorce; Hubby Dances Steps Cambridge, Mans. — (ANP) — William Hawken disturbed the equilibrium of Judge Arthur E Beane, when he danced a jit in front of the court. When he wished to court, he wished to his wife, M. Lilian H. Hawken, was granted a divorce a few minutes before. He did not contest it, but was granted permission, giving voice to his feelings. After the decision Hawken dumfounded the spectator by executing a few acts, including the doors of the courtroom. At the results of the finding, "right away quick," he began to make AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1929 Alleged Stealing In Porters' Brotherhood Finally Gets "Airing" New York.—(ANP)—After repeated suggestions and demands from various agencies that A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car-Porters, make some public report on the disposition of the more than a quarter of a million dollars collected from and for Pullman porters, Frank R. Crosswalt, one of the high officers of the brotherhood, has just issued a statement in which he charges that much of the money begged from Pullman porters and accepted from the Garland Fund was stolen and otherwise diverted from the purpose for which it was given. Crosswalt's statement accuses Randolph of first trying to avoid a disruption in the business brought about a disagreement between him (Crosswalt) and Randolph, and the latter's apparent demand for the porters to open discussion of their personal differences. Crosswalt defines the real issues as follows: the six national officers, four of the national officers, age of the brotherhood because convinced that Roy Lanier had the idea of the brotherhood in the hindering of the brotherhood's financial affairs*, Mr. Crosswalt has mentioned four officers, but a majority of the membership of the brotherhood has ceased to function because the brotherhood has experienced lack of responsibility, integrity, and honesty*. Crosswalt makes the following specific charges: "I. That Lancaster collected红帆 road fare for himself and myself to the airport. Pa., and kept the money. On our return from that trip, Lancaster told me he would see if he could have a car. I never heard anything further about BABY CONTESTS RAISE BIG SUM FOR N.A.A.C.P. BABY CONTESTS RAISE BIG SUM FOR N.A.A.C.P. New York City — (ANP) — With the "Baby Content Season" opening, the city has been making that in less than five years "colored babies assisted by growers of the children" to the contents $64,471.16 to fight for their own future. Each year has witness its growth ranging from $11,000 in 1926 to the high water mark in 1928 of $16,930. This movement, popularly known as the Movement, began as the beginning in 1924. Since then the direction of William Pickens, field secretary of the association, several organizations, including Sodena, representing the "plessies" have established "Baby Fraternities." We have added the least expensive and the most successful way for local branches of the association to raise funds and are being urged to adopt this policy. Civil War Veteran Answers Last Call Middletown, Conn.—(ANP) George Washington, ex-shave, will be honored in a civil honor. He fought with valor through the Civil War with the Union Army and was a record. He was a member of the local Grand Army Post and always as color bearer on Memorial Day. The post escorted the body to the Washington did not know the date of his birth but he was of a ripe age. His long time owner, Miss Corrine Wetmore, was given his celebration on 9th birthday month. Washington refused to leave for a major domain in the family. this until one day, when the brotherhood's auditor was in the office, he booked about an amount of expenses for Crosswidth and Lancaster to Camp Mammut, and to another room to make the explanations, and when I asked her later on, he replied that I must have heard wrongly. 2. That Lancaster habitually wrote to and on one occasion appropriated for himself $4 included for dues in a letter addressed to her, about how she had been about to inquire from the sender as to her him not being an acknowledgement and investigated in the files the original letter with a few notations on the Mr. Lancaster and Miss Davis, the bookkeeper, had previously denied her investigation and found in the files 3. Lancaster maintained a private account with the porters' money in the Corn Exchange Bank in 1826 Street Mr. Lancaster had consistently denied the existence of this account and confronted with several cancelled checks. 4. That Lancaster, in accounting for the expenses, falsified the report involving sums said to have been paid to Mr. Lancaster had consistently denied the existence of this account and confronted with several cancelled checks. 5.

Mr Lancaster later allied that 600 dues been stolen from his desk on account. 6. That several porters made the bookkeeper for tickets for the first annual hall of the brotherhood and that each money were never turned over. "7. That on one occasion Mr. Lancaster left at the end of an evening, which a large collection had been taken, to take a train for Boston, without turning over any of the money collected to anyone in the organization or leaving it at the office.

Rivers, Prominent Gotham Legal Light and Yale and Columbia Honor Student, First Negro So Signally Honored—Hughes, Tafts, Root, Stimson and Marshall Among White Members—Action Happy Omen. New York.—The Association of the Bar of New York elected to membership on February 13, 1929, Francis E. Rivers, a prominent New York attorney. Mr. Rivers thus achieves the distinction of being the first attorney of color to be admitted into one of the most exclusive and distinguished legal organizations in America. Among the leaders of the Bar Association are: Charles Evans Hughes, the president of the association; Chief Justice William Howard Taft, Henry W. Taft, Louis Marshall, Elizhu Root, Henry L. Stimson, as well as many other attorneys of international reputation. Rigorous admission requirements make the membership supporting these leaders the aristocracy of the American bar. Written endorsements from at least eight association members together with a fine reputation and record as a lawyer are indispensable for an applicant to be even considered for admission. This combination of brilliant leadership and well-tested and proved membership has, for the past 50 years, made the opinion of the bar association decisive on questions of law reform and enforcement. An impressive showing both as to president of the N. A. A. C. F. and endorsers and personal record enabled chairman of its national legal com- Mr. Rivers to effect admission into mittee.

In the open, a witness a further spread of the mixed balloon has vanished and has vanished to negligible proportions, and the number of visitors from other sections of the country has dropped.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1929 National Benefit To Enter Illinois; Annual Meet Held Washington, D. C.—(ANP) The thirteenth annual meeting of the stockholders of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company was held in the home office, 609 F Street, N. W. Rutherford, Md. Fifths of the outstanding shares of stock were represented. Reports were submitted by R. H. Rutherford, president-treasurer, S. W. Rutherford, and other various officers of the corporation. The stockholders were in session an entire day, and it is a matter of sincere satisfaction to all of them that the stockholders of the whole day there was not a single dissenting vote or an inharmonious proceeding. In other words, harmless and uncontested voting of the day. All of the old officers were recalled and also the present of the board. Two additions to the board of directors were made; viz. C. L. Washburn, prominent, and John W. Roxborough, engaged in estate, estate, estate, Detroit. C. E. Lucas received a promotion by election to an assistant recipient. "Automobile School" Proves Lottery Joint Boston, Mass. — (ANP) — With a 1.6 percent increase in the "star Auto School" at 602 Massachusetts Avenue, South End, three new schools and four new programs have left few they can, before a single diploma was issued, the professors, Frank Hawke and Robert H.

It is the most speedy remedy known. And so the third generation of the race fawners into perfection; is education with its bronze and magnolia perfection, and flies away northward-to. And for all the opportunity awaits. And for all the opportunity second generation; for all its fighting, drinking, laboring,打破 unconscionable bonds, upholding unjustful instinct; its upiness, its ignorance it finds and points to the way for the makes possible its burgeoning into full bloom of opportunity. For Haitian money but the prayer-book with the name and address of the Episcopal church you could girl-stay and have protection as she studied. That same unfortunate clergyman who had vanity his male name and had a reputation against the church of superstition and ignorance and debasing practices Whether allegory or merely a detailed history of events, *Mammalia* is the modern Nerro in all phases of life, lowly yet upward scaling of life, slowly yet upward scaling of life, neatly and upward scaling of life, educated and ignorant, that has yet been done. The canvas of the novels of the modern Nerro is most confined to Charleston, South Carolina and its vicinity. The New Yorker, in its own way, ingrudient. From "Pory" the race has proclaimed. From "Pory" the race has proclaimed. From "Pory" the race has proclaimed. Evanescent reminder of Caffair Fish and their origin. But the author has not hesitated when a situation prepares to take its logical conclusion. His white people, whose lives run contemptuously, so much not so much like characters in a story, as real beings dropped into our lives. Northern whites and their hastily assumed venerable vener—the women and the walker in a way Athinon "puts it over" his wife and the social situation. Saint Wentworth is really the book of many strange to find a novel with one white man for a hero and three Nerro women, only touch here and there, but when that changes the course of many lives. And Saint Wentworth is one of the most lovable characters you may meet. Dulbe Heyward now solves the Goddard knot of this strange problem. He doesn't know where to go. Nearly without help off or patronizing. He does it by the very simple expence of a simple calculation.

We see the church service in the fragrant Episcopal colored church in Charleston; we see a musical band playing the "blood vein" group; we go in the automobile of the wealthy banker; we see the third-generation meeting. All quite natural—and let Lisa, the climber, the third-generation, when she tells Mama of her first social evening—"They seem to be nervous, and all the time they're trying their darnedet to white." The author put his finger unerringly on the sore spot in the social fabric of the Negro? A rarely beautiful book. You will read it once, then twice, and then go back and dip into it again and again, remembering the heartening of Dube Hewery.

"We should consider the importance of Negro insurance officials and policyholders alike. A race must become economically viable. If it would have wealth and well being. Safe, well-managed and careful supervised Negro insurance companies would have the total insurance on Negro lives. They can, should, and must insure the lives of race wealth, and race welfare."

FIRST IN REAL NEWS-PAGE THREE THEATERS AND PERFORMERS BIG AND LITTLE Movie Directors Say Quarrels of Colored Actors Hinder Films (BY HARRY LEAVETTE) Los Angeles, Cal.-Quarreels, fight and bad habits are jopardizing the future of colored actors in the motion picture industry, directors and others who have handled to work with and to contact the colored performers since their recent repertory numbers in important pictures became "If the motion picture industry is in such a condition that it will not tolerate the on the part of the most famous white actors and actresses, what do you do?" the director grocer actor will be?" one director was heard to inquire. "of Los Angeles who have worked with racial pride at the sight of the entrance of the Negro industry, their breath 1 East in something should happen in the record of those who have attended direction, directions and then to dimmish some of the leading colored performers." Troubles Started With Glipin Universal seems to have already handled the cases, both with a reexamined collection, and with lesser performances, Charles Glipin was automatically fired by Universal 2 years ago for coming to the conclusion that allegations then made, drunk the day occasioned by Glipin's tardiness, were thousands of dollars. Bishop Scott, a prominent person who had come as great of the company to watch the film, go away disappointed. Edmond Lowe was afterwards employed to take Glipin's picture, "Uncle Tom's Cabin." When "Hearts of Dixie" was planned, the Fox company decided to give him the opportunity to work in New York at the time, but the company sent for him and offered him the job, but according to other color performers in the cast, Gilpin soon became a crankshaker. Director Slean improved Gilpin, being forced to adamantish him at one time in substantially the same way, Gilpin, we will not tolerate temperament out of anyone. We are not going to have to have give us a picture and nothing else. Afterwards, Gilpin was released. George Reed, a local favorite, was given the part, but failed to click. It is being done by Clarence Mowry. Actors Quarrel and Fight A quarrel which began on the studio lot during filming of the same movie, which led to a fight in the lobby of the Somerville Hotel, took place when "Stompy" and the host earned $300 per step. The host took issue with each other over a girl's "Stepin", and to be earned $300 per step, the gangster to meet up his erstwhile friend, "Stompy". When "Steph", the host reached the lobby of the Somerville, a three-cornered fracta ensued in which the patient was again. During the making of this same picture, another troublesome incarnation of the patient directors. A girl and a man, each employed at $100 per step, played opposite each other in their job. They had to be frequently reprimanded because their interest in each other was low. In the picture, the girl was capacious where the rest of the cast was not involved in the filming. There came the time for the filming of a wedding scene in which she was ready for the camera, and to crowd forward and kiss her. At the first rehearsal, the director was ready for the camera, but now make it real and do it well. An ex-player in his part of the scene realistic, indeed, when the lover, playing the role of the epithet, "don't hold that girl no long." This itself was a serious offense as she during important scenes probably needed to turn her check to the door and be forced to step back a accordingly to turn her check to the door and be forced to stop all action and rebuke both performers. The girl startled and the room was the first evidence that actors formerly got $7.50 a day an hour from $100 to $600 a week. Many sought cars who had no place to keep them, and refused to refrain himself with his company she made his car possible by tearing his neck speed. Another, "Sipin Feiselal," has bought three cars in two years has employed a chauffer. The cars are a Cadillac limousine, a Cadillac limo, and an investigation falls to show that any of the fortunate actors has invested in substantial securities or property.

Baird was Rev. E. L. Harrison, pastor Antichrist Baptist Church, delivered a very able talk, which was presented in the ridium, the text of which appears here. Do you know omisridium? That is your omisridium—the omisridium your special calling. What do you need to know for gold along a river in Papua New Guinea, for gold broke into a mass of flakish substance, blue-gray in color. They did not aside as worthless. Later the prospectors happened to tell a mining engineer about the matter and is in charge of mining.

This is an old lesson which is peculiar to the money-changers. "I am sure when you extended me this invitation to address you today you were not thinking in terms of business, but rather of hearing something about business as it relates to religion. And yet you do know that the church quite a bit in religion and in the scripture. Such exhortations are not only interesting but perhaps the most interesting and the most promising and the most important in this is this one: 'Seeth thou a man diligent in his business?' he shall stand and say, 'I will mean men.'

Word to All Advertisers: You will certainly make a mistake if you fail to include THE HOUSTON INFORMER in your list of publications for advertising during 1929 and the succeeding years. THE INFORMER also enjoys the largest circulation of any Negro newspaper printed in Houston or South Texas, and its circulation growth during the past year, while not startling, was sure and steady. Over 65,000 Buyers 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.

R. WILLIAMS) There once lived an old frog in an old dwelling and because he had never travelled, he got the idea that all the world was just like his old well. That, in a way, was the idea of church traveling. One can very easily form the opinion that the old frog had, that every church is connected to the church, that mine is far superior to the rest. So on last Sunday I pulled myself away from my own church fireside and headed to the Wesley Memorial African Methodist Episcopal Church, Dowlingville, where the building is the first unit of what is to be a most imposing structure, to cost when completed in the neighborhood of Houston. This church for years stood on Texas Avenue and Chartees Street, where now the church is the home of the darling early day of Houston was known as the "sill stocking" church of the city. This stocking church was an amphibious practice by the members, but on account of the high-class historic old church, Wesley, as it was known up until the new building was begun, has always enjoyed the service among the ministers of the African Methodist connection, and therefore among the ministers of the African churches of this city and several. But, to my story, I arrived at the church in time to get a glimpse of the Sunday school which is provided over by Misa Ellie Alma Walls, as superintendent. As I entered the room, I saw in the midst of a conscription service in which the newly elected officers were gathered about the man and the pastor. Rev. J. B. Butler, was beseeching the Master to consecrate the said officers to His service during the en REV. J. R. BUTLER suing year. It was a very beautiful and impure manuscript, indeed not a book. I am glad we necissed it, the morning service began with the processional, in which the choir sang the hymn of the church while the organ and the two violins, played by John H. Kerr and the choir, in the choir gallery, the A choir was the seats in the choir gallery, they sat to put the most disobedient of praise with such harmony and pathos as to put the most disobedient of processional was just the beginning of the rare treat that I was to enjoy in the way of singing from this note.

The one mailed from Dallas, a second of Feb. 18th, from Galveston, Texas, which appeared in last week's Houston Informer, I very much regret that you seem to prefer to continue the fight instead of to forge and forgive and save the Baptists of our state. To you of the 14th contained my fourth proposal to you for peace, and to which I have your reply. Twice in this letter I have addressed and on the platform in Sherman, one in open newspaper publication and this letter of Feb. 14th contains several questions and declarations that should be answered and disqualified, but to do so will push the fight further. I will not be able to meet these demands but had hoped that you would by this time been willing to brotherly discuss the matter. However, if you insist, I will, as soon as I have returned from filling the office, include about 30 days, be ready to present the matter to the public as you request for its second verdict. Since I am not a lawyer, I am one of several days and places, campus of Houston College or Bryan University, where I was been in Houston and passed through two different times since receiving your letter to me, "I can see you any time," means to me that you are not very much interested in the prosecution.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1929 STATES HONORING ROSENWALD According to plans already made public, fourteen American states are in the midst of mammoth celebrations in honor of Julius Rosenwald, the philanthropic American Jew and vice-president of Sears, Roebuck and Company of Chicago, in the 4,138 Rosenwald schools in said commonwealths. According to the announcement, the specific purposes of these meetings in the Rosenwald schools are: To do honor to Mr. Rosenwald, the friend and humanitarian who has done so much for the colored boys and girls of the South and nation; to bring people of the various communities, both colored and white, together at the school house for the purpose of getting better acquainted with each other and of getting more intimately in touch with the school and its need; to learn of the progress that has been made and to plan for greater achievement in the future, and to give the patrons and friends of the school an opportunity to make contributions to the immediate needs of these schools. Fully 500,000 colored children are said to be enrolled in these 4,138 Rosenwald schools, which have been built at a cost in excess of $20,000,000. Of this huge sum, Negroes have contributed $3,913,875; whites have raised by direct subscriptions $903,253; the sum of $12,166,438 has been made possible from public tax funds, and Mr. Rosenwald personally and through his fund, has contributed $3,333,852. Upon the suggestion of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, founder of Tuskegee Institute, the first Rosenwald school was erected in Alabama during 1913, costing only $42,50. During the past fifteen years 4,137 more such school buildings have been constructed and are now in course of operation in fourteen states, and racial illiteracy has been reduced tremendously as a result of this benefactor and his contributions to Negro education. Not only has Mr. Rosenwald made possible better educational facilities, equipment and courses of study for Negro youth in these schools, but he has also inculcated into the Negro race the spirit of self-help and self-improvability. Any movement which teaches the race to practice the doctrine of helping and improving itself by and through its own efforts, certainly is a deserving and commendable one; and in ascribing praise and bestowing honors upon this noted character during this national celebration, this fact should not escape the attention of the celebrators. In making his contributions to and for Negro education, Mr. Rosenwald has not been actuated by any selfish desire, nor because of any love, as such, for the Negro race per se, but rather because of his love for humanity, and his knowledge of the fact that America can never rise higher than its lowest and most ignorant citizen. He is truly worthy of all the honor which shall be accorded him during this observance, and The Informer is a stammer believer in the practice of giving flowers to the living; while they can smell and enjoy their rare and rich fragrance. All honor and praise to Mr. Rosenwald, and may his tribe increase! PRAIRIE VIEW SINGERS SANG AGAIN! The Informer has been reliably informed that a misstatement occurred in our editorial last week, captioned, "Negrecus Insulted At Conference," wherein this paper stated that the young men (male quartet) from Prairie View became so incensed at this insult that they withdrew from the auditorium and did not sing again that evening." The editorial in question dealt with a gross and flagrant insult heaped upon these singers and other colored citizens at one of the public programs rendered here during the silver jubilee celebration of the federal farm extension department, when the master of ceremonies (a white Texas extension worker) made the remark that "after musical selections by our Mexican friends (referring to a Mexican brass band from Kingsville), my "niggers" from Prairie View will sing again." This insult was hurled at the colored group on the night of the banquet tendered Dr. R. R. Moton and his party by the local Business Men's Club, and this editor was not present at the City Auditorium when the alleged unwarranted and uncalled for insult was handed out to the youthful singers from the state college and the colored auditors; but some of those present originally informed The Informer that the Prairie View male quartet did not sing any more that evening. Since the appearance of last week's editorial touching upon this matter, information has been imparted to this paper that we were his error on this score, and that the Prairie View singers really made again. If this latest report is correct, then it begins to appear that somebody at Prairie View is serving in a typical Sambo role, for The Houston Informer America's Greatest Weekly Newspaper President Coolidge has studiously and计算性地 avoided the race question as an political entity. The impulse of his Puritan heart beats true to his principles in right leadership. He believes with a seat-tested conviction in the fundamental purpose of the fifteenth amendment. But the shawnee Yankee agility cautions silence where assertion yields no frustum. Renewal of a promissory note has no efficacy if the maker does not intend to pay. He neither affirms nor intends to infer what his principles are. Mr. Coolidge has been president for five years and six months. During that time he has not made a single significant, original Negro appointment. He did renominate Cohen of Lincolnia to his unconfirmed assignment and replaced the minister to Lily A. Hancock as the chief treasurer of Columbia. Charles W. Anderson, Arthur Proe and Perry Howard were permitted to continue in office by hold-over treasury. The official positions in the South were lost to the Negro before President Coolidge's day. during the winter of 1928 the chorus from this state college had to employ a freight elevator in a certain local hudl in order to reach the assembly room where they sang for a national gathering of bankers. If the freight elevator incident could be overloiked and forgetten. The Informer can not see how any self-respecting Negro, whether student or teacher—even at a state institution of learning—could so statify himself and his race as to appear on a program after such a gratuitous insult had been hurried at the singers, teachers and Negro race. There is something radically and fundamentally wrong with any man or race when he or it does not know how to resent such an insult and affront; and if these college singers really sang such insults and affront, they would be upon them, they need to be examined by a board of aliminary, and if some teacher insisted upon them singing again after such an insult, we have our serious doubts whether such person is qualified to instruct and trained color youth along lines that make for manhood, manliness and moral courage. COOPERATIVE MARKETING SCHEME The proposed movement to organize the Negro farmers of the country into a cooperative marketing association, is worthy of the earnest consideration of every black tiller of the soil in the United States, and it is to be hoped that the effort will meet with success. This is an age of cooperative effort, and the colored farmer, the least protected productive unit in America, will improve his status to a marked degree and become more prosperous and successful if he will learn and practice the lesson of cooperative marketing. The man, who on the farm or in business, who ensues to operate individually rather than collectively will discover ultimately that he is making very little, if any, honeoy. Realizing the power of organization, the farmers of the other race maintain associations for their mutual benefit, and much substantial progress is being made by them as a result of such organized forces and protective movements. How to sell the product, whether agricultural or mercantile, is the problem now facing the Negro farmer and business man; while the latter is also faced with the elephantine problem of cooperative buying. The Negro farmer, in this connection, should diversify his crops and produce more green vegetables and other farm products which always have a ready market, and which can reduce the cost of living for the farmer and his family, by providing much of the food consumed by his immediate household. AMERICAN OCCUPATION OF HAITI That Uncle Sam, in the role of big brother to Haiti, has virtually stifled and destroyed the spirit of the black republic, in harm out by a recent expose of the heartless and cruel policy of America given the press by Captain Napoleon B. Marshall, former American attaché at Port an Prince, capital of Haiti, and a commission officer in the 15th New York Infantry, which saw mortal service during the late World War. Captain Marshall declares that America has maintained a systematic method of crushing the morale and spirit of the Haitian people; that the American administration has wanted and summoned public funds of the black republic of the Culemille; that Americans have been overpaid and natives greatly underpaid; that malicious discrimination has been practiced and that America has failed to redeem a single promise made when Haiti was first occupied by the United States. For the past several years much criticism has been directed against the American occupation of Haiti, and intout of helping the colored republic by its occupation and administration of internal affairs, America has bungled the job and literally raped and outraged the Haitian government. It strikes The Informer that any man who can not manage successfully his own household is hardly qualified to attempt in administer the affairs of another man's household, and Uncle Sam has been unable to do well to straighten out his own internal affairs before emerging to serve as the moral monitor and political purveyor of smaller and disadvantaged rebelies. The United States congress should terminate the American occupation of Haiti, and the new chief executive, President Herbert Clark Hoover, who will be inducted into office next Monday, should make this move as one of his first official acts. Regarded throughout the world as a humanitarian and believer in human rights, Hoover will prove himself an author of this country to influence the continued occupation of this black republic. THE HARRISON-WILSON IMBROGLIO Replying to the recent open letter of Rev. E. L. Harrison of this city, president of one faction of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas, Rev. E. Arlington Wilson of Dallas, president of the other faction of the Baptist Missionary and Educational Convention of Texas, accepts the suggestion that they (he and Rev. Harrison) hold a conference and seek to agree to an amicable basis for settling the differences which are about to wreck and destroy the convention in this state. However, before agreeing to the conference suggested by the local Baptist leader, the Dallas minister gives Rev. Harrison "a piece of his mind," and mildly chides and upraises him and his followers for their part in the present denominational controversy. The Informer, which has repeatedly made the suggestion that these Baptist leaders and their followers hold a pence purity and sign an armature, will be interested in the outcome of this proposed conference between these two leaders of the hattling Baptist forces. There is entirely too much at stake, both from a deminational, religious and racial angle, to permit an irreparable tilt to exert between this city and Texas because, and we are hopeful that we be declared the winner, that the leaders of such factions can together on an available. Calvin Coolidge and the Negro rum." Congress respects the sincerity of his judgment and the grittiness of his decisions beyond those of any other senator.

They kept open the door of hope although no other Negro aspirant was expected to enter. The university membership and membership of the treasury panel from Ephraim's political allotment. The Rooseveltian policy of appointing Negroes to compulsive places in the North has not been sustained. When the present colored collector of internal revenues of New York retires, his successor will in all likelihood be appointed. The administration has established a dead line to the Negro's appetitive hope. The life span of this release is one week. Before that limit shall have expired, the fourth of March will be upm. We then bid Mr. Coolidge adieu, and Mr. Hoover welcome. We cannot help but welcome the great interest of the politicized politicians flocked to the capital in unaccounted numbers, with reasonable expectation to be chosen to fill high stations in the South, in Washington, and in the foreign service. But now there are left only three or four comparatively minor places that they dare to visit, and in the case of deaths, the ministership to Liberia and possibly the assistant attorney generalship constitute the limit of the black man's political ambition. This well known trend towards elimination which has been going on for a generation has climaxed under Coolidge. President Coolidge does not pose as a leader of public opinion but as a leader of the public opinion in the thermometer is not a truer indicator of the temperature than is Mr. Coolidge's appraisement of public feeling. Herein lies his great popularity which cannot be shaken. He knows with uncanny intuition just how far public sentiment will allow him to be president for allowing his political fortune to sink to such a low level under his handling. But we are quarrelling with the wrong party. It is public opinion, rather than public officials, that must be changed. Mr. Coolidge is not a great leader but a great public opinion infreetly by following it. While Mr. Coolidge's administration has marked the downward trend of political favor towards the Negro he has shown in kindly personal conduct, he has also been a political politician, whenever occasion presented itself. He has ever and over again voiced his good will and sympathetic interest in Negro education and general advancement. In several states he has been a prominent lawmaker, and has declared for the Me OPINIONS grew constitutional rights, in principle. He has written several letters endorsing the work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. No president has ever promulgated kind interest and good will towards his colored fellow citizens; and yet he has done less to promote his claims to equal rights under the constitution and the laws. We must, however, thank him for his good inference, though not easily translated into action. And now Mr. Hoover takes hold where Mr. Coolidge leaves off. He enters upon a very bad inheritance so far as we are concerned. He finds the Negro all but eliminated from high place under the government. Publisher at its Newspaper Congressman Tinkham of Massachusetts is about the only man in either house of congress who genuinely believes in the enforcement of the constitution where it is effective of the Negro's rights. Mr. Hoover is under no definite political debt which he is bound to pay under penalty of twelfths and a half at the polls when he comes up for renomination and self-encession. If every Negro who did vote in the last election had cast his vote for or against him, it would hardly have effected the margin of his majority. The political program has been set to failure in the negro institution the Negro delegates, if there be, will have no independent voice or vote. But despite all of this, let us hope even if we do not expect, that the incoming administration will out, of course, that we will restore the Negro all of his lost political prestige. But let us, in all events hope and expect, that Mr. Moer will project a social program which will be conferred or offuse those withholds.

Interesting, Entertaining and Instructive DID NEGROES MERICAN and European scholars are beginning to doubt some of the so-called facts of history which they formerly upheld. Things that were once considered sure truths are viewed otherwise today. History is now beginning to look very different from the day it looked a short while back. Especially is this true in regard to the Negro. "Africa and the Discovery of America," a recent book by Prof. Werner of Harvard, declares that natives from Africa probably visited the shores of America long before Europeans brought them here. This is easy to believe since the West Coast of Africa and the East coast of Africa and the East Coast of South America are more than a thousand miles closer together than is Europe to North America. The British Isles are 2,600 miles distant from New Foundland, the nearest point to them in North America. Pernambuco on the coast of Brazil is only 1,600 miles from Freetown on the West Coast of Africa. But were the West Africans sufficiently acquainted with the sea to risk its dangers on so long a voyage? Undoubtedly they were. Even today the Krus of the West Coast are famous as navigators. In African tradition these coast men are on a par with the Vikings of the north. They probably were the first discov- --- Section 2—Saturday, March 2, 1929 S ONCE RULI "For 2,500 years the Kings of Yemen held sway" erers of the New World. Some day when African folk lore is more seriously studied we will know who really did discover America. The last meeting of American scientists loudly rejected this new theory. This was to be expected. New ideas which upset old ones are always rejected at first. The very fact that it came up for discussion is a great advance. MANY AFRICAN RUINS History in America and Europe has long called the Africans a "People Without a Past." Meaning by this that they had never risen to a height of civilization which left landmarks for the future to decipher. Archeologists, from whom we get all our impressions of the past, naturally do not care much for a people who leave them nothing to decipher. Certain other reasons, too, made they hasty in their conclusions about the Africans. It was more convenient for them to believe that the black native of Africa was a savage and that white civilization had done a great noble deed to rescue him from this low estate. The great civilizations of Persia, Crete, Egypt, Greece and Rome all left monuments of their greatness, noble ruins and fragments of delicately wrought pottery. The Africans, it was said, had left no such reminders. When, in 1871, the ruins of Zimbabwe were dis --- Clean, Wholesome and Refreshing E the WORLD ? covered the scientists of America and Europe hastily said they were of Semitic origin. Had they not definitely decided that Black Africa had no past? This great mountain of stone was considered a sort of inland accident thrown up by Phoenician traders. Since then, unfortunately for this theory, dozens of similar ruins have been found. They extend through a vast area from South Africa to the northern bounds of Abyssinia. It seems almost certain now that a great African civilization preceded European civilization. And it is not far fetched to believe that the first civilization of Egypt was Negroid. The features of many ancient Egyptian kings are obviously Negroid. The Egyptian proper no doubt was a blend of Negro and Semite. We know for certain that in 800 B. C. Ethiopia conquered Egypt and ruled her for nearly three hundred years and that Ethiopian princes and the nobility of Egypt intermarried for many centuries before and after. King Pankhi of Ethiopia freed his country of Egyptian rule and laid the foundation of Ethiopian rule in Egypt. In fact, the histories of Ethiopia and Egypt are so intermingled, each country ruling the other and being in turn conquered and ruled itself, that it is preposterous to speak of Egypt as apart from the (Continued on page 4) STRUGGLING HEARTS "I immediately the woman looked up, a look of incredulous bewilderment on her face."
