Folsa, here's your opportunity to help a local charity assist a worthy local welfare agency which is in dire need of a modern home for its children. Let's all have a night out! ******
For some other through lack of forefight, or in keeping with the vogue in no many Southern cities, a well-being of the colored race, no comfort station than far has been established in the New Farmers' Market, now new completion on Smith Street opposite The Infirmary on the street that have already been installed for "white men" and for "colored men" in the city fathers, architect and construction company must hold to the opinion of the local community for such convenience at the new market.
This supposed and enlightened age and in a cosmopolitan community such as Houston has provided a reflection upon our humanitarianism and civic pride when any man in the same type of comfort stations, other convenience and arrangements for colored citizens and tax payers as it
in this connection, and you ever stopped to consider how expensive the South could be and what road and railway is?
The South became of the national "Negro question," and must retain a dual system along so many lines, with its resultant added expense, by regulated; separate trains must be provided; separate trains must be provided; separate trains must be made available; separate and separate that are the order of the city and waste as a result of such a miliary system attain staggering proportions. On city council, as well as on the new Farmers' Market were not mindful of the fact that Houston has 80,000 citizens, and that thousands of these citizens of chony and other mills will need for comfort stations. Whatever might have been the motive for the new Farmers' Market, comfort stations for colored women and men at the new Farmers' Market, that such conveniences be installed before the structure is formally accepted by the municipality and opened to the public.
Houston had as violence last week two notable Catholic leaders: vix: Louis Israel of Plagesburg, La. and mw: Mr. Israel, who is supreme height.

Chicago — (ANP) — As one of the first steps in an announcement expansion of the city's public education system, open new offices in the national Python Temple which was held last month, and publication have leased a thousand of floor space, shutting a corner of the city's downtown, St. Mary and Third-seventh Place. This space has been divided into departments, the business department, advertising, sports, music and society, and the arts, which have been issued through the Whey's office and A. G.

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION PUSHES LEGAL DEFENSE OF NEGRO BOYS; WHITES ALSO INTERESTED IN CASE
New York—Grady Swain and Robert Bell, 18 and 14 years of age, went on trial for their lives in Arkansas March 5, according to announcement made here today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The two boys were convicted and sentenced to death in the electric chair in June, their conviction based on alleged confessions secured when they were unmercifully beaten and tortured. W. J. Lianer, a white attorney of Forest City, Arkansas, argued by the flagent injustice, became interested in the cases especially after investigation of the charges against Swain and Bell of having drowned Julius McCulloh, a white boy, and Elbert Thomas, a colored one, showed that the boys were innocent. When appeal was made to the national office of the N. A. A. C. P. by Judge Sjepel A. Jones of Little Rock, Arkansas, a judge of $500 to finance appeal to the Arkansas Supreme Court. On September, the higher court reversed convictions and remanded the boys for retrial. When further aid was required to attorneys the N. A. A. C. P. agreed to contribute $250 additional and to pay $100 in Arkansas to $600. On Sun
tember 13 cheques for $550, in accordance with this agreement, was forbidden. Roy D. Campbell, a white attorney of Cotton Plant in Woodruff County to which change of wages was obtained, asked the defense to assist in the defense. So bitter has been the feeling against the two defendants and so retaliate is the deterrence, he said, to boys, though there is very great doubt as to their guilt, their parents have years who are defending the boys. The national office of the N. A. attorney helped through its legal committee. The result of the case is being followed with very great interest because the extreme youth of the defendants.

FIRST SECTION—NUMBER 43
Washington, D. C.—(ANP)—The date of the second trial of Perry W. Howard, Republic national committee from Mississippi, and Attorney S. D. Redmond, chairman of the Mississippi state central committee, has been set for March 18 at Meridian, Mississippi.
Mr. Howard and Mr. Redmond, along with other prominent members of the Republican party in Mississippi, were acquitted of charges of selling federal patronage sometime ago in Jackson, and it was rumored that the Meridian trial would not be held.
COLORED WOMAN CHARGES JERSEY POLICE OFFICER WITH ASSAULT; GRAND JURY INVESTIGATES CASE
New York—(ANP)—From across the North River on the Jersey side comes the scandal brought to light by Dr. F. L. Golden, a white columnist of the Jersey Journal, which has resulted in the suspension of a police lieutenant and a grand jury investigation of charges preferred against him by a colored woman, Mrs. Dorie Geter.
A week ago, Dr. Golden, under his pen name, F. L. G., editorially asked Walter White of the N. A. A. C. to stop investigating in Georgia, Texas, and other places the brutal treatment accorded colored women by white men, suggesting that Mr. White come to Jersey City and look into the case mentioned above.
So cancistic was the editorial that the police immediately took a hit. Investigators revealed a model criminal attack against the lieutenant, a married man with a record of thirteen years police service.
According to reports, Mrs. Mabel Willebrandt, a former coworker of Attorney Howard in the department of justice, who conducted the investigations which led to the indictments against the colored lawyers, has demanded that the trial be carried out and has intimated that she will do all in her power to secure conviction.

Under this joint resolution the government is to build a site to cost $500,000 and the building is to cost not less than $500,000. The resolution had previously passed the House and is sent to the president for approval.

The more playgrounds for Negro children in many large cities, especially of the South, it was pointed out that or recreation facilities for Negro children and in others the jim-crow playground and in others the path of travel of workers.

They both agreed that the achievements of the Negro in incarceration are other fields should be recognized. The chairman of the committee, Congressman Wood of Indiana, and Morton D' Hull, Republican congressman from Illinois, made speeches in the House.
Excite Bitter Denunciation
The enrolment of the Negro was too much for Mr. Rankin, who replied: "I thought in Indiana, I am not surprised that the school children of Gary went on a strike to free themselves from the Republic. And Representative Bush of Missouri said that the included political leaders would become convinced that Northern Republicans had a sincere interest in the Negro and would help their homes to meet their wives and daughters." Lee, well known in Washington club circles, has worked many years to get this resolution passed. The National Memorial Association

Describing the Greenland country, Henson pointed out that among the people he met, there was a degree of thick green grass growing in its extreme north portion with the temperature averaging around 30 degrees Fahrenheit. Henson was introduced to the audience by Montgomery Gregory, principal of the School and was presented with an engraved pen, the presentation address being made on behalf of the association, a member of the board of education.

A Little Fun With Indiana Senators
(By WILLIAM PICKENS)
The house of representatives in India indemnity and registration of barbers, creating a new "board" of two "practices" (the course) with the secretary of the state board of health, with the authority to register or refuse to register barbers. The trouble is: the property of the Naxalite white people, even in the finest white office buildings and clubs, owing to the presence of a black force to have a black hand, rather than a white hand, welding the razor unintentionally. Senator Movehead of Indianapolis is opposed to the bill, and he was to be sent to the barbers to register their opposition. These barbers asked me to go and along and that they would not introduce me as an outsider, but just introduce me by barbers. This they did as long as it would last—but the curiosity of the senators out out just before we get through.
This bill has some good features in the bars, the barbershops and the freedom of barbers from infection and contagious diseases. The legislature passed was much worse than this one, for although this bill also included an oral examination in the "subjects initially taught in schools of barbering," it was not in general education up to the 8th grade or the high school as if albeit with the proper skill in removing a fellow's beard. The governor was persuaded to veto the former legislation. But some of the objections to this bill which I urged, the following: It sets up two "practical barbers" in the barbershops and their rivals—and those two barbers, as the senators to whom we talked in the past would always be "white" in Indiana.
This brought us to our master objection and our main proposition: That we should not on the state treasury another "board" on the state treasury for which it already has an ample province to health, for state, county and city; that the wealth matter is not the concern of the business man; that the haircut is not the community's business man; that not rival barriers, should be put in charge of the matter; and that the master point should be left to the master barber of each shop. The master of the master point should be from the standpoint of proper hair cutting, it is against his own business with him. Sanitation, disease, even

morals in the community sense, might be better to teach them moral values. We called attention to the truth that it is not right for the government to impose moral standards on them than they are already handicapped by legislation favoring "high school or" education, and more mature education in any trade where such education is not necessary. We also added that children should be good, sanitary barber and should not be taught to earn money, not educated to be better choice to be sanitary, but that does not prove he is more sanitary than he is dared to be sanitary and not in literary education.

In fact, THE INFORMER stood fourth in this respect amng the Negro newspapers of America, three racial publications in the metropolitan centers of the East and North surpassing THE INFORMER in volume of display advertising.
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

quiring examination in subjects taught in higher schools, although much of the work is for the teacher to handle the harder subjects and colored people not able to maintain some of their skills. We are prouded against Negro barbers educated in schools for Negro mothers only. Then one of the men was moved to re-enroll in the school, and people are trying to take advantage of the Negro. "Impatient," said I. "for any same people are trying to cause something it will not alter the fact of it—all though we might忍耐 that some white people do not want to be taught in schools. Then I admitted that, because of con-

ditions in America, colored people will often be snipacious when white people are often snipacious when colored people mean no wrong; that colored people will be permitted to "forget" what to like. Then I told them the story: The mother called down into the cellar? What is he screaming about? And Johnny's bigger brother called up to him: "In nuttural matter with him! Mr. Johnson just hawks out every time I hit him in the head with the hammer!" Who is in favor of the bill, still admitted this much: "Well, there are eleven more."
bers in this legislature elected in this county, and if the colored people of Indianapolis would stick together and form a body to speak for them in this legislature. They ought to have at least whether he is right or not (for if I suspect that the voting is no blockout out that the Negroes alone could not vote, then the eleventh of the whole vote), that was still a keen challenge to the colored of the business of government, at the source of legislation. A lot of other fun we had, but really it is unimportant, because the majority of the momen cannot be reproduced.

Ex-Senator Lorimer Of Illinois
By WILLIAM PICKENS
We had our usual meeting in the interest of colored Americans in Springfield, near the resting place of Abraham Lincoln. Senator Lorimer was present, and after listening attentively, he got up and made a speech: "On the first time tonight the conviction that the colored people of this country need a white person to be a friend to colored people's rights all my life.

"The Lord In His Holy Temple, Let all the Earth Keep Silent." Throughout the humble worship was manifest, and one could not but feel that he was truly in the presence of the course and an opportunity given for persons to connect themselves with the sermon.

IS AMALGAMATION A PRACTICABLE
SOLUTION TO THE RACE PROBLEM?
KELLY MILLER
Amalgamation would certainly solve the race problem. If the race problem is not solved, there will be a problem. Have you ever relied for a race be amalgamation. The old Vermont farmer used to observe that wherever a race was contested, no one would ever dovety respect of self-respect, that they seek to be made over in the race, because before an event wherever the snow melted it grew warmer. Cause and effect are so indisputably entangled that it is hard to say whether the race was contested or not. Several weeks ago I issued a release upon the subject of amalgamation of race. The only amalgamation worthy of my attention was the mass cessation throughout the Negro press. None of the facts which I then maximally have in mind, the deductions derived from refuted My general conclusion was that from analysis of the forces and influences in race amalgamation we can be consummated within any time which we can predict or preve. For the sake of ready reference I will here indicate the reasons.
1. The white race has the will to keep itself by resourcing to such separate schools, separate cars, antimisecigenation laws and like proscription measures to make this will effectuate.
2. Twenty-nine of our forty-eight states have enacted antimisecigenation laws and have such strong sentiments on the subject that such prohibitive laws are likely whenever a sufficiently strong prohibition is pending before congress to nationalize such prohibition.
3. The degree of amalgamation has been effected through illlegitimacy has greatly decreased the ability and self-respect of the victimized race, (2) on account of the manipulation of control which estops illlegitimate issue.
4. The border line contingency between the two opposite tendencies, one mainly males, crossing into the white race and the other, mainly females marrying, crossing into the white race.
5. Intracarial amalgamation is rapidly diffusing white blood already injected into the race through the endemic groups which will become more distinctive as this process becomes more com-
I did not, and do not, propose a philosophy of finality. In the final outcome of the surgical fusion of all peoples occupying the same territory seems to be an imminent possibility. We do not propose programs or formulate programs on ultimate eventualization, can prove by mathematical calculation the time become exhanced; but this glomy foreknowledge did not affect our religious faith. Both religion and science tell us that in some remote day, the sun will forge a path, make me walk the sun shines, to amalgamate the races, while it may possible come to pass with the exhaustion of the earth, to effect the policy and intangible to effect the policy and program of the race, yet it is too remote and intangible to effect the policy and program of the grace. The isolated instances of an occasional near-white colored people who crossing the color-dive carrying the forbidden blood as can be concealed under an alibantic skin and unaware of the forbidden blood can be withdrawn the inserted finger lowers the index of the race scarcely more than withdrawing the amalgamation of the races would hardly be consumed before the last process of approximation.
It is not a question as to whether amalgamation is wise or unwise, an advice to the reader, or desirable or undesirable, but whether it is probable; and whether the Negro is liable to suffer from it upon it. To my mind it is perfectly clear that the Negro in this country should be beaten to death, because one with the white race, Amalgamation as the solution of the race problem would surrender all of the rights of righteousness out of deference to the anexations of race prejudice. If we were white before he can secure his rights, then what becomes of the ethical principles of Christianity and democracy is not to be cowardly surrender of all that the best members of the human race have
Let us ask to the most ardent amalgamationist how much time must needs elapse before race prejudice can be eradicated. What must grant his major contention, that it will take place in time. What must the Negro conceive all of the white man's arrogant claims? Must he attribute all of the advantages and virtues of humanity to all the values and must he insist on the birthright of humanity as heir to all the values and you ask the next ten or twenty generations of Negroes to sacrifice themselves while the bleaching process is underway. And in man's land, rather, the full pariadoys of
George Installed Pastor of Church At State Capital
We met our old friends, Prof. J. T. McCormick, the founder of educators, who made remarks pertinent to the ocasion. It was a great day for Baptist had on the gala appeared, and the congregation applauded and hearta athrob, and hands raised. And they would aid in the success of the ocasion.
The choir was at its best and every member was thrilling, entraining and inspiring was heard at each service. A sumptuous well-balanced dinner in the spacious room of the pastor's home, the Commerce, formerly pastored by George, Mrs. Crowder to Austin J. McCormick, minister to the exercises which she did with credit.
The writer preached again Sunday just before the pastor and other officers.

Hebrews Surpass Other Students At Columbia, Report
New York—(ANP)—Jewish college students outside other national universities are invited to a professional investigation made by Prof. Henry Aarrett of Columbia University, the University of New York, and the Journal of Criminal Justice studied the differences between 290 representative freshmen at Columbia and found that both students are far superior both in classroom grades. Students of Italian origin were expected from their intelligence, ratings, whereas with the Irish students "classified as to religion, the Hebrew students rank higher than the Italian students." Garrett reported, "There were no significant differences between Catholics and Native ability may be the cause of the superiority of the Hebrew students to the Italian students there are two other possible contributing causes; first, that place, it is very probable that the preparation of these Jews who apply for admission to college is somewhat better than that of the other applicants; secondly, the standards or criteria for admission are probably somewhat higher."

CONGRESS HONORS AMERICAN NEGRO
According to recent congressional action, the United States government will erect a memorial building in Washington, D. C., in commemoration of the Negroes' heroic sacrifices during martial times and "as a tribute to the Negroes' contribution to the achievements of Ameries"—provided the chief executive of the nation approves the measures and does not exercise his power of veto.
The measure, introduced as a joint resolution, passed by a vote of 248 to 86, despite the fact that the Southern congressmen, in keeping with their custom of opposing every proposition which is calculated to help the colored citizens of the republic, voted against the bill, and raised the stereotyped cry of "political agitation," "social equality" and the usual buncombe and bull disout by these rabid and prejudicial Dixie solons in the hall of congress during debate on measures of this and other types.
From the fall of Crispus Attucks, a black slave, on Boston Commons in 1776, down to the storming of the German fortress, Metz, at the close of the World War, the Negro has not only played an important and conspicuous part in every martial conflict waged by this nation, but he has given his labor, toll and best efforts for the development, growth, expansion and perpetuity of this country.
He has been loyal to every American tradition, institution and ideal, and despite the fact that the black race has not and does not now receive a fair and square deal as other American citizens, never in the history of this republic has a Negro served in the role of traitor or assassin.
Even during the war between the North and South, when the black man's fate hung in the balance; when victory by the Southern forces meant his continued enslavement and triumph by the Northerna forces would assure his emancipation from the cursed institution of American slavery, Negroes saw armed service in both the federal and confederate armies, and millions of black slaves remained on Dixie plantations, raised the crops, cared for, protected and safeguarded, as best they could, the white women, children and other non-combatants of the South.
Negroes have never been slackers when America needed volunteers to defend the honor of the country and to perpetuate this democratic republic; and if other Americans had been patriotic as Negroes during the World War, we doubt if it would have been necessary for the government to have invoked the law of selective compatriety.
Even during times of peace these same colored citizens have been a potent factor in the peace-time activities of the nation and section in which they reside; and how any man, who claims to know the Negro as Southern whites so often boast, could object to such a memorial being erected to honor a people so loyal, faithful and patriotic, is beyond our comprehension.
The South has opposed and been negative so long that it is little wonder that the North and other sections of the country will hold Dixie in the palm of their hands; and, despite the fact that the South, for years, has enjoyed many advantages in the industrial, commercial and manufacturing field, chief among them the ability to hardly a single article or product used in Southern offices, homes, plants and other institutions is manufactured in the South!
Racial prejudice has kept the South not only down, but back; for no man, as Dr. Booker T. Washington used to say so often, can hold another man down without staying down with him. This is true in wrestling and it is equally true, is not more so, in the game of life, whether intra-racial or inter-racial.
We venture the assertion that the majority of the Southern congressmen who opposed this measure to honor the American Negro at the national capital by the acquisition of a site and erection of a building to cost approximately $1,000,000 in the aggregation of land, to contend with and preaching that they are the "Negro's best friend."
It is this same professed friendship and love for the Negro which prompts Southern white men to lynch black men, women and children; to deny them the right of the ballot; to refuse them first-class accommodations on the common carriers of the South, while charging these black passengers the same tariff charged other people who enjoy real, first-class traveling accommodations; to aggregate and jim-crow their colored neighbors and "friends;" to mete out injustices and inequalities in the supposed courts of justice; to maintain the Negro in economic serfdom and in many instances in actual slavery and peonage; to perpetrate other types of Hummankin unpatronu an unfortunate and disadvantaged minorities.
What man, who styles himself as an American, could be so small and prejudiced as to begrudge this small recognition to a group that has made such wonderful contributions to this country.

HOOVER AT THE HELM!
By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C.
Herbert Hoover has assumed the captaincy of the ship of state. He found her flooreder in a man of laziness and instantly directed her to the intuitive genius of his act he immediately sensed the moral predicament in which the nation is involved and sounded the alarm and prescribed the remedy. It was a daring step for the chief magistrate to take. He puts the nation on warpath and the world that our boasted empire in the western world which has been wont to assume the monitorability over the morals of mankind is threatened with speed destruction unless we change our pace and purify our way. We are stepping the same thing from time immemorial, but nobody pays them much serious head. Other administrations have pointed out specific evils which threatened our national perpetuity, but none have gone to work. Mr. Hoover now tells us, in terms that no fool may misunderstand, that the nation must destroy laziness or laziness will destroy the nation. It is useless to try to save the tree by pruning away the withered limbs, but we must at the root of the tree.
With statemanalike sagacity, Mohr lever lays down the general principle and applies the application at the point of least resistance and easiest accomplishment. He does not proceed逻辑ly by beginning at the point of maximum flagrancy. Statesman it makes sense to make little practical handway. And so Mr. Mohr does not begin with the nullification of the second clause of the fourteenth amendment which is openly flouted by common consent and universal connivance. This would be like beating on cold iron. Thirth-century statesmen sat in their seats while Mr. Tinkham made forceful appeal to have representation reduced in accordance with the constitution. It is entirely probable that this baker's done remained in their place from courtey or forbearance rather than from any respect for the nullified law.
tion for not giving the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments precedence over the eightth in order of enforcement. Herein lies an obvious moral inconsistency which is apt to provoke hostile reaction on the part of those most immediately affected by the amendment, they will not bestir themselves in behalf of the latter until the former is enforced.
The moral indignation is at least understandable, but statismanlike sagacity must first deal with the probable and the likely before attacking the improbable and the unlikely. The enforcement of the human right amendment to the constitution. Insistence on the part of President Heover would be but a barren instance of impotent, moralizing and void of practical results. But the entire nation is committed by repeated and immediate enforcement of the eightiest constitutional political parties in their national platforms declared for the vigorous enforcement of prohibition. Among the last acts of congress was the enactment of a law with sharp teeth in it, to put an end to illegal manufacture and sale of intoxicating drink. It was also the result that always vote as they believe, but at any rate they vote as their believed
their constituents want them to vote.
So that the president has the fresh mandate from the people to upland the prohibition amendment. In this case, the president must receive the approval and applause of all good citizens, even though they must hold in abaance parts of the constitution, which they feel ought to be.
The Nevers would look upon the situation from a practical point of view. Whatever may be the relative merits of the violated ministries, it is perfectly plain to every citizen above the intellectual grade of the mercy that the constitution will not be considered until the eighteenth amendment is disposed of. If the endeavor to enforce the prohibition fall the constitution will be struck a vial blow by that failure. If the constitution fails the previous amendments impossible, if it demonstrated that the local and personal interests and appetite can override the constitution, then may attempt to overcome it. If the constitution will be violated in vain. On the other hand, if Mr. Heaver is able to uphold the home and supremacy of the constitution in this body contested issue, he will thereby lay the foundation for the establishment of constitution in all of its parts and means.
Mr. Hoover did not appoint a Southern man to his cabinet. The reason why is not disclosed. My reasonable guess is that he stabblers refused to take the oath of allegiance. He could only have selected a Southern representative on the accepted basis of condoning the nullification of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. There is no outstanding man in the South, whether Republican or Democratic, who has accepted assignment on any other basis. Mr. Hoover cannot face his conscience in a looking glass had he chosen among his advisors a man committed to the nullification of the constitution, while at the same time he was a man committed to the efficacy of effectively upholding the organic law of the land. While it would seem that his passive acceptance of political support from such sources during the campaign was of oblique consistency, nevertheless, I have no doubt where he stands upon the basic issue of the constitution in its integrity.
Mr. Hoover has staked the success or failure of his administration upon the enforcement of the constitution beginning with the eighteenth amendment. If he succeeds great will be the lasting benefit to the nation; if he fails great will be the failure thereof. If he fails from his administration, both to the nation and to the Negro, will be witnessed, if at the end of the next four years it may be said that he told the nation wet and left it dry.
ROMANCE OF THE HUMAN BODY
BY ALGERNER R. J. RACKSON, M. D.
We have seascape romance in the industrial plant. How much more romance is to be found in the human body, which is so analogous to the man-made factory? Under the direction of Dr. R. J. Rackson, we communicate nerves, with each organ and endocrine gland functioning properly and the blood stream conveying every necessary nutrient and hormone in proper amounts, it resembles the blood stream of a constant output of muscular and nervous energy. The muscular work can be measured and recorded in footpounds or pounds, but how shall we measure the amount of put of nervous or mental energy in just as the output of muscular work? Mental Muscular Wear.
If the pyramids were to be built, the explosives and machinery, products of the hard work of the millions of slaves, the toll of millions of slaves. The times have relieved us of much of the muscular work formerly necessary, which means for industrial and scientific accomplishments undreamed of a human
We now move rapidly from place to place; enormous problems are required to place the hand the demand for nerves and to until it is a small wonder that a nervous breakdown supervenes and a new response appears. What has happened in the human plant to throw everything into confusion? The predominance of nervous requirements over muscular work and by other artificial conditions is falling to function, and the blood stream is no longer carrying its blood the whole endocrine balance is upset, the central nervous system suffers.
THE NEGRO WAGE EARNER AND THE URBAN LEAGUE
FRANK B. CROSSWAITH
Editors' note: Frank Crousworth was one of the founders and executive vice presidents of Negroes for Negroes. He was an organizer of the International Union of the Architectural Engineers and the Elevator Operators of New York City. Picture Operators in Harlem recently he was special organizer and publicity director of the Pullman Porters Union*. ... The useful and important role which the National Urban League aspires to play in the industrial life of the Negro is a matter over which few informed Negroes today will disagree. There was a time, in the infancy of the league, when many Negroes dwelled its value to the race, and others even questioned it. Men and women who established it.
It was claimed that the league was a meme scab agency, that the employ interests supporting it were comedied, not so much with giving the league the authority to draft a skilled artisan, but were principally interested in using Negr grocers to pull their chestnut cut of the industrial fire, and, that its fight with white unlawned workers the league would serve as a appoach to the league, organized Negro workers with which to beat down the wages, hours and working conditions erected by union workers. This belief was shared by many trade union. The early record was that the claim was not wholly unjustified.
Of course, the league's defense, by no means unimportant, was that inasmuch as the Negro worker was caught between the cross fires of the employer and the employer, the consequence of which he was being effectively kept out of the so-called skilled trades by the unions which would not admit him to membership, and by the employers who could not hire him as a non-union worker, the employer had no necessity had no other choice but to enter industry via the only door remaining open to him: namely, as a strike-breaker. That this policy has had its corrective influence upon many of all who have followed, even causally, the recent developments in the trade union movement in the United States. The job is by no means a completed one. There are yet some unions with constitutional and other provisions denied to Negroes into certain industries.
Recently, the league sent out a report purporting to give a survey of the industrial conditions of the country as they affect the Negro wage earner. The report tells in a rather rudimentary and patient manner that the company is a chamberhead "being employed of "telephone girls" and "an assistant bookkeeper" securing opportunities with some white concern, of a "headmaster and several waiters" being given a chance to a living: of one establishment employing "200 Negroes in Chicago," and no forth. As a sort of contract the report recounts several instances of Negroes being陷入 the army of the unemployed.
Health is the vital principle of blies,
And exercises of health. $ ^{47} $
and security of any group, especially of the Negro group. Landlords and others who under no present economic and social arrangement will not grant to a worker the exercise of his constitutional right to life, liberty and happiness merely because the worker is employable. The transcending importance of the Negro in the figure of employment no much in the figures of haphazard employment which it contains, but what these figures mutely yet so eloquently indicated: Namely, that the Negro as an unorganized wage carrier is not a person less tensed hither and thither upon the industrial sea and apparently content to accept mental jobs at a wage rate much below the standard ordiarly calculated to inure a worker in poverty, indigestion and poor health.
If the Negro wage earner is in remedy this alarming situation he must realize the advantages that come to the propertyless working-class through cooperative enterprises. Side by side with not necessarily antagonistic to—the league the Negro needs an organization which shall devote its time and energy to the problem of oration and cooperation. The league's report also shows tragically insecure is the economic life of 12,000 black Americans.

EASY AND PLEASANT TO USE
WHITE 50¢ AMBER 25¢
ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION
Looking soft, smooth and glossy, your hair stays be-
comingly in place, when you dress it withPluKo. There
are no stray ends and stubborn strands to vex you and
mar its appearance. Your hair is perfectly groomed from
every point of view---front, back and sides!
It is PluKo’s pure, fine oils which bring these re-
sults. Going down beneath the scalp, they nourish the
hair-roots and soften each tiny strand so that your hair
may be arranged easily in any style-and kept that way.
Tonight, before you retire, apply this fragrant hair
dressing to your hair according to directions. In the
morning you will be surprised at the improvement you
see. And after you have used a reasonable amount of
this preparation your hair will be softer, straighter and
more radiantly beautiful than you ever thought possible.
