Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—The Pullman porters and mails won a victory in their battle for higher wages and better working conditions here Thursday in a meeting with the officials of the Pullman Company, according to the statement of J. N. Aden, Washington, D. C., who was chairman of the joint conference between the 21 representatives of the porters and mails and the company. "Several important improvements in working conditions were agreed upon," said Mr. Aden, "including an increase in the extra pay where men double out on their assigned lay-over days; an increase in the extra pay where the tour or duty is prolonged by delayed train arrivals; certain guaranteed payment where porters and mails are called but not used; and other working conditions, together with a flat increase of five dollars per month effective June 1, in the wages of all, porters and mails." While these improvements in working conditions along with the increase in pay were not all that porters and mails contended for, Mr. Aden pointed out that they represented the desires of the majority.

Each district or agency selected candidates in a primary who later were voted on in the general election of representatives. The general election resulted in the appointment or designation of the 21 delegates who attended the meeting. Each representative came to the conference with a program of his constituents. The first days of the conference here were devoted to the compiling of these desires into a composite outline of the wants of the workers and this was presented to the Pullman officials.

AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JUNE 15, 1929 COURT DECREES WHITE PRIMARY STATUE VOID New York—(ANP) VJ irgin is a "white primary" law, by which it was sought to bar Negroes from Democratic primaries in the state, has been held unconstitutional by Judge D. J. McCormick, the District Court, on the basis of the victory won in the Texas white primary case before the U. S.

He told the second that has always existed for the need to keep in close communication. This need is no less felt in this day of postal service, telegraph, radio, airplanes and all the swift processes of modern civilization. There is need for real contacts among men; for commerce in ideas as well as transport of goods. "We are in grave danger from overspecialization," said Mr. Kellogg. "Within every professional group are advanced men who have a glem of a better day. But the chemists may not know what the engineers are talking about when they vision giant power. The physicians may not know what the architects mean when they talk of regional planning.

Cimbee Interviews Negro Congressman At Capitol Office (BY S. B. WILLIAMS) Washington, D. C. — I was fortunate Monday afternoon in interviewing Congressman Oscar DeFries, in his office in the house office building. The congressman, the first of his seven nominees, was equally elected from a northern district, is well established in his office. As he seated himself in his manhole grassman relaxed and expressed his pleasure at my calling. While I am not a committee member, I was just in his reception. When questioned on the unemployment situation he said that he thought the government should have any real pawl population and any great amount of foreign labor. He said that favor of immigration that would, for a period of ten years, close the gap against the chapel labor of America. He emphasized, however, that he believed this country was the mecca for the Muslim world, a politian land in the world and even the wage-carrier of Europe. He even said that the charity begins at home and when there are thousand of local American citizens who want to marry, the marriage first be satisfied. He became catholicized when he became constitutionalist when he constituted the constitution of the United States. "No man or woman," and the congressman, "is a position to contend for," he said, knowing what these rights are. Hence I shall continue my campaign to inquire into the fundamental of the land." The congressman was reminded of newspapers we were saying good news about the young boys for West Point and Amphibians. He said he would continue to work with the students he had the hardships and privileges to do so. He said that Alton Sawligh, a two-year report at West Point, would report at West Point on July 1 next. CITY HOUSE DEFEATS TINKHAM'S BILL AIMED AT SOUTH HOUSE DEFEATS TINKHAM'S BILL AIMED AT SOUTH Washington, D. C. (AFF)—Representative George H. Thibnau of Massachusetts, lost his battle to enfranchise Negroes in the South, when the amendment to the reapportionment bill, presented by him was eliminated in order to secure passage of bill in the house of representatives. The amendment provided pressure to the state to duck from the population of the states guilty of such action thereby reducing the number of green from those states. The amendment was adopted earlier in the world, and Southern representatives halled on the matter as the amendment would represent about fifty per cent. Another amendment which was considered inimical to the passage of the bill was the native Lloyd, which denounced the alien population from the census taxation. This amendment threatened the native Lloyd. From the larger industrial center. The Tinkham amendment had the effect of representing both parties and the Thurston amendment was the representative from both parties and the Ku Klux Klan and the day condition produced a deadlock. The condition produced a deadlock. The could be dissolved only by stricting the vote through a resolution passed by Congressman John Q. Tilton of Connecticut. That trouble was brewing and the passage of the bill was threatened and the Democrats from the South received from the shock of having the first time in some 50 years that any messenger to the South's senate form of action. The Democrats immediately moved to bill to bill the bill as a whole and the senate failed to fail the bill on the bill and the desired result would be placed in senate through the re-method. While Representative Tilden had been up. He stated that the South had not benefited from the protection the country and, most importantly, the congressional amendments be enforced.

"My yard is not a yard to meet. My yard is a fairy land, pretty to see, flowers fairy, flowers fairy, with the thought of joy to share with my house, with the thought of joy to share with my house, with the thought of joy to share with my house, with the thought of joy to share But a haven of joy which my friends often seek. My yard is not just a yard to me. My yard is a fairy land, pretty to see."—A. S. Forde. Recently, the horse owners of the Forest Home Addition sponsored a contest for the purpose of determining the yard most artistically arranged and the yard most neatly kept. The fact that such a contest was carried out is indeed considerable, but it also emphasized the fact that in most cases not much thought was given to the correct placing of flowers and shrubs. Not only does this hold true in this particular section, it is generally true of our group. Some of us do plant flowers and shrubs, but in a rather promiscuous way, giving no thought to line or harmony. There are those among us who build homes ranging from simple cottages to magnificent dwellings, who make long and exhausted study of various plans for the house and there the task ends. Observation shows that every many of our largest and most expensive homes stand months and weeks without a single shrub, flower or planted to soften the grim architectural lines. A suggestion given as to the need for shrubs and flowers is met with an indefinite promise to plant "some day." It is possible that a home owner does not realize that a home without a flower is a desolate place? Yard without flowers is like a "face within a hole," a room without curtains, or a "dinner without a welcome." Just as a raiment gives a sense of fitness and poise to a woman, so do flowers growing in the yard give an esthetic emblem of radiance, joy and living and constant to every member of the family and a beckoning welcome of hospitality. Foundation planning (meaning) those crumbly lieve the rigidity and sharpness of the exterior of a home is just as important as the furnishings on the interior. There is no home however beautiful but whose beauty can be enhanced by the artistic arrangement of the foundation plants. There is no cottage, however unrightly, but whose life is a multilingual can hold the careful placing of tall, graceful shrubs. No home is ever complete without these foundation plants. I do not count myself an authoritative rookie. I bake a holiday of mine Riding Elk, a holiday of mine Riding Elk, a holiday of mine observe and compare. My conviction that a house is not complete until propensory is an article to emphasize the necessity of correct foundation planting, and to observe and compare.

SOS Preston Avenue Opposite City Hall FEMALE TROUBLES FREE BOOK HAIR LIFE Used by Thormala Atlanta Council Overrides Mayor; Passes Measure New York—Overfitting, by unanimous vote of 28 (c.9), the veto of the mayor, the city island of Atlanta, Georgia, has passed a segregation ordinance which contravenes the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in the Louisville segregation case (Buckham vs. Warley) won by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in 1977. The Atlanta ordinance purports to evade the Supreme Court's decision by not mentioning races, and setting apart separate residential areas for "those persons who are forbidden to intermarry." The mayor vetoed the measure because he was advised by the city attorney that the measure was plainly unconstitutional. The national office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has offered its aid and that of its national legal committee to得好。 In giving me for a yard which is divided in the venter by the entrance walk which leads to the front steps, and which has a driveway on the right side, leading to the garage in the right side. It is very beautiful home with the landscaping we'll done, that on your left lives Mr. Don't Care with a shack that's an eye-sore. In order to be rid of the unsightly appearance of Mr. Don't Care, the plant a tall shrub, beginning from the front edge of your lot on the property line, running back as far as is necessary. This should be a shrub which will grow in the forest. I feel high. I will grow in a good plant for this. This method will plant the eye sore entirely out. The shack cross fence neparating front from back may be hidden, should very or honey suckle, and the other one's side next greenery. And now for the foundation planting which is close to the home. Remember these foundation plants are used to soften and tone the soil. This is a very important part of the house. Since your home is evenly balanced with a central entrance it is absolutely necessary that both sides of the front be planted alike. Each outside corner should present a convex� apparel of a long length. The top of the plant will just before it reaches the foot of the steps where the convex swells out again. As you observe your effect from the street, you should seem to see each side representing a straight way, which has the same size each end whose convex edge is toward the street. To obtain this effect tall shrubs should be planted next to the house at the corner, graduating down to the desired height for the straight way. The entrance to any home should be inside welcome to enter. To store plants in a corner, use shrubrils for a little distance from the floor from the clamp at the step. They must not extend too far from the door, and the walk free, except for two accent plants at the street entrance, one on the left and one on the right of the shrubrils (such as boxwood) mounted a foot apart and must not be permitted to grow more than a foot high.

Colored women are being overlooked greatly in this connection and so are colored women. On the senate side of the capitol and in the senate office building conditions are somewhat different. One or two of the rest rooms have colored women's attendants and the senate lunch room has white waitresses with a few colored kitchen helpers. The offices of the senate offer no employment to the Colored women and to the men of the city of the United States. In a about the senate or the office building, would be a most unusual sight.

Los, Angeles, Cal.—(ANP) The climax to interracial romance that begin when Squire Granville Wilkerson, colored mail-carrier, went to the Tia-Janah White girl, and married her, at last came to a happy climax following his arrest and conviction on their returning here. The appeal of Wilkerson, asking that his conviction in Superior Judge William C. Dora's court on charges of contributing to the delinquency of a minor following his marriage to a white girl, was granted recently in an imprisonment down by Justice W. Winsor, in the district court of appeal. Much interest was attached to the marriage, which was made regardless of the fact that the marriage was solenized on Mexico soil and the girl protested that "BLACKBIRDS" WILL APPEAR IN FRANCE; WALKER AT DINNER New York—(ANP) —The original "Blackbirds"船公司 sails for France on the S.

III.—(ANP)—Unemployment among Negroes and one aspect of President Hoover's announced intention of cleaning the Republican party in the South, were taken cognizance of recently in a letter written under the authority of the National Negro Insurance Association and signed by Harry Pace and W. Ellis Stewart, that was dispatched to the president. The place is president and Mr. Stewart is secretary of the National Negro Insurance Association. Part of their letter read: "During the past eighteen months, the economic conditions of the Negro in America have been unusually severe. Agro-residential housing has been shown to have been thrown out of work. This has resulted in a higher death rate among Negroes for insurance companies, for when men cannot get the necessities of life, diseases and plagues follow. Such plagues and diseases are an original beginning and a new people of Negro blood are, none the less, color blind; they have no respect for race or color and do not hesitate to attack all men alike, even taking lives of the very men who close the door of industry, colored people, if they are spirit of our Am有限, if they are political institutions is to manifest itself in a closed door policy to Negroes in the matter of employment, then the span of life as a group, instead of being lengthened, will be shortened and thereby the life, life and happiness of the Negro people will be greatly curtailed." Messra, Peace and Stairway also invented the heart of practice in the United States in America when it was announced through the daily press that the basis of the organization was to be determined by the color of the skin and that the heart of the organization was into the hands of the lily while to the exclusion of the Negro. The devotion to justify the reorganization of the party in the South on any such ground is unjustifiable, unAmerican, and the policies of our government," they continued. The attention of the president is called to the part which the Negro is bound to bear as a bondman and freedman, and the president is asked to "employ your executive powers and your great intrepidity." The Negro may be given the same fair and equal chance in both the political and national as in given to other citizens." WHITE TEACHERS STUDYING NEGRO IN DIXIE SCHOOL Chicago.—(ANP)—Often the opinion is expressed that the brighter side in race relations in the South will be revealed through the efforts of young white Southerners who grow up with an awakened sympathy for and understanding of their black fellow citizens. Many persons who were students of the problems have felt that it was not the Negro alone in the South who needed help, but the white person, as well. One of these was the late philanthropist, George Foster Peabody. He long ago felt that it was necessary to teach white people in the South and that to teach white people to teach white people. As a result of his conviction, Peabody College, the principal college for the training of teachers and school supervisors in the South, was founded out of money contributed by Mr. Peabody. Already, it has more than justified its existence by virtue of the position held by its graduates throughout the Southern States. As a leader of the educational system. More than the products of any other institution they contact and superintend public Negro education. The Julius Rosenwald Fund, which has become celebrated on account of the thousands of Rosenwald rural schools in South, has recently continued to be the support of a department of Negro life and schools at George Peabody College. According to Edwin R. Embree, president of the fund, this will make teachers more familiar with the problems of Negro schools, as well as with the teachers to become familiar with the problems of Negro schools, as well as with the services of teachers trained at Peabody College will thus become a part of the curriculum in future race relations. Not only will the teacher trained there be fitted to impart to white pupils a fair disposition to Negro students, but Peabody faculty who hold many responsible students will have been trained to make intelligent and fair disposition to Negro students relating to Negroes in the system. Mr. Embree believes that this work will be accomplished by functions of the Rosenwald Fund. Mrs. A. E.

The company had one of several such calls made during the course of a busy day spent among the visitors and one fraught with much pleasure despite the too frequent observation of business that the company of business that proclaimed the business is still somewhat amateur in business. However, nothing like those words could imply to this drug store, nor for that matter to a number of other businesses. Dr. J. B. Martin owns that drupeur. Dr. J. B.

The business expert explained to the business expert the phrase about augmenting shelves by declaring that to be a sure investment, the store must be filled up with stock from back wall to front with stock and that the store was uninsulated. It means that there is some case with two store rooms being occupied, it means that there is some A more careful survey with some judicious questioning showed that questioning was on hand, and that there was a turnover of about eight years a year of the inventory.

We have a folk migration which in his own words is only with the pushing back of his people, the last century on with the waves of immigration which have swept in and through numerically far smaller than either of these, this folk movement, though numerically far smaller through to cultural expression and economic friendship. In the past, the group is digging up his past and genesis out even to Africa the genesis of his people. He is on an adventure in self-expression—not alone in political and social life, but in the word and spirit. He has had no language, but by harbored wine entanglement of prejudice and fixed conceptions, he is winding ways of his own to survive. He has gifted his gifts that shoot across them, story-telling, rhythms and color, drama, ardent feeling and feel thoroughly the movies so barricades.

On Grounds Daily From 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sundays, 3 to 7 p.m. PHONES: CAPITOL 0210-W and CAPITOL 6241-W As I ride on a "jim crow" car in Texas, I am thinking of other people in the race who are interested in the race and come to mind in models, or certainly a prototypes, of mutual devotion to the race placed in this world: some of us work in "publicity" and notoriety; others work in the private, in the invisible illusion. But the leaves of a tree, although very visible and "prominent" in tree-organization are the hidden roots of that tree. There are some trees that are the most important performances of the most important organizations of our interacial organizations. And they are the workers themselves. Only the insiders know the real importance of these invisible workers, and some of them work of these unbridled workers is kept covered "up". Some of them are Two of them whose work I know well, might illustrate what I mean. They are less known to the general public than are some of us whose work is not a bit more effective, and their efficiency and the worth might give to them of the well-known status for the one of these is colored; the other is a woman. One is Jew; the other is Baptist. One is Richetta G. Randolph, the other is Herbert J. Seligmann. But none of those differences are always important. Both are members of the staff of the public. C. P. That is how I happen to know their unproclaimed efficiency better than the general public knows it. If either they or I were outside of the staff of that organization, they might be just as efficient workers as I now do, but would know nothing from me but about the other. Without the services of Richetta G. Randolph as head of the office clerks and stenographers, her organization could not have been as effective and achieving as it has been for the last years—to my personal knowledge. We have uncertain sense for office management. We have the power to take the place of the association, and one secretary of the association would have been hopelessly lost and as completely separated from many of his daily needs as was Robinson Crusoe on his island. Certainly the machine efficiency of this particular service does not work. But such works does not inspire editors and poets to write about it. Then there is Herbert J. Solgmann, the publicity director of the same or other organization in the United States as a "white person" and the present work is effective in the publicity force of the institution--its publicity. Its work appears everywhere, easily. We easily fall into the habit of referencing it as a personality, as if it were a person. THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, JUNE 15, 1925 or corporation--forgetting that every act and force of an organization is the act and force of some person on behalf of the organization, or the "press release" of the association of the battle of Grims--forgetting that this is the work, the product of somebody. Three things are being done, and has been doing it for years. The product, no longer master of the work, is publicity; but is master also of the special technique for this special work. He educated and devoted colored man. He easily pass for the work of some well-educated and devoted colored man. He easily pass for the work of some well-educated and devoted colored man. In weekly press releases to hundreds of Negro papers, he tells the Negro's how to write a Negro could tell it. He produces specially designed for the publication of his articles in writes magazine articles, and supplies editors with information on which to publish his articles. He is not nicest "editorials." This requires tact, skill, patience, and experience of Hypothetical propositions are often of little value. It is so easy to hypothesize. Of what use is it to ask "What would this particular organization be, if for the last ten years it had not had the services of Richetta G. Randolph and Herbert J. Seligmann?" We do not know. But this we do know: If it had not had either their services or, what is rarely to be found, services like that they have rendered, the organization would not be what it is—if indeed it could be at all. Well, here we are, getting into San Antonio. We started these reflections leaving Austin. When a fellow is riding in "jim crow" and rummaging around in this part of the earth, he is liable to think seriously of the realities and actual forces behind the work which he is trying to do.

CINCINNATI HOW TO GROW OLD GRACEFULLY BY ALGENNON R JACKSON, M. D. (For The Associated Negro Press) A woman may be considered as old as she looks, but that is no reason why age must strive eternally to look young. Age as well as youth has its charms, and the charms of age are more important. After youth has departed, it doesn't matter whether or not a woman has dimples and Cupid's bow mouth. She need not count every calorie because nobody expects her figure to be stylish like need she become pain-strike-like. She need not count what of it she is no longer tempted by fashion's newest whiten, she can dress in a middle-aged woman, we usually resort to what it costs a younger woman. When we praise the appearance of a middle-aged woman, we usually resort to well-groomed, no strung-wigs of hair escape from the brim of her hair, nor do the power of puffiness impair her dress is well-fitting and free of spots. Her finger nails are clean and her hair is a fresh handkerchief, always carries a fresh handkerchief. The wise woman who is past the days of her youth will endeavor to understand the young people about her instead of adopting an attitude of criticism toward them. If she is active and in good health, she should not expect to be "waited on" continually. It should be a pleasant occupation for her to keep herself and her belongings in good condition. So many women around middle age let themselves slump both mentally and physically that the alert, well-groomed woman is a conspicuous figure. Even though she plays a poor hand at bridge and reads lengthy speeches at the political club, she is sought after by young and old.

PRIMARY TOPIC—A Nation That Forgot God. JUNDER TOPIC—A Nation That Forgot God. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—Paying the Price of Sining. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—National Accountability to God. Zedekiah was made king of Judah by the king of Babylon (II King 24:17), but in spite of this kindness and the word of the Lord spoken to him by Jeremiah (Jer. 34:17, 18, cf. Jer. 52:3), he rebelled against the king of Babylon. He relied upon the help of Egypt, but all that Egypt could do was to cause temporary interruption of the siege of Jerusalem. 1. The Siege of Jerusalem (vv. 13) It began on the tenth day of the tenth month of the ninth year of Zedekaih's reign and lasted about eighteen months. The tenth month according to the Jewish calendar, corresponds to our December, January, as their calendar year began about the middle of March. The reason the exact time is given is that this was to be an event of great importance to the Jews in their exile. 2. The method (v. 1). Nebuchad-nezzar came with a large army and encamped against Jerusalem and built forts against it round about. It is thought that siege walls were built around the city, shutting it in. On the tops of these walls forts were built from which missiles of destruction could be buried by their engines of war against the city. 3. The famine (v. 3). Geikie says, "It was speedily followed, as it always the case, with an outbreak of resilience. Food was well-high gone. There had long been no bread. Mothers were at last driven to murder and eat their children. The richest citizens wandered about searching for scraps in the dung hills." It is estimated that one-third of the people of Jerusalem died of starvation. II. Zedekiah's Flight and Fate (vv. 4-7). 1. "The city was broken up" (v. 4) 2. The Chambles had succeeded in making an opening in the wall so large that they could make their way into the city of all that the Hebrew could do. 3. Zedekiah's flight (v. 4). The king with his men of war died by sight toward the plains. His objection to the king's death at Jestheim and in the mound east of the river. (2.57). (1) He was overtaken in the plains of Jericho (v. 5). When his flight was discovered, the Chaldean army pursued and captured him. (2) He was brought to the king of Babylon at Riblab (v. 6), a town north of Dascusscus. It was the king's headquarters from which he directed his armies against Tyre and Jerusalem Zedekiah was tried as a criminal before Nebuchadnezzar. (3) His fate (v. 7). His sons were slain in his sight; his eyes were put out; he was bound with fetters of brass and they carried him to Babylon where he was mailed prisoner until the day of his death (Jer. 52:11). III. Jerusalem Destroyed (v. 8-10). The dismantling of the city was delayed a month, perhaps awaiting its structures from Nebuchadnezzar, who was at Riblab. 1. They burnt of the house of the Lord (v. 9). This was the sacred temple built by Solomon, with additions and modifications. Before burning it was despelled of all its sacred contents. 2. Burn the king's house (v. 9). This was doubtless the palace built by Solomon. 3. Burn all the houses of Jerusalem (v. 9). The implication is that the common houses were left for the people (v. 12). 4. They broke down the walls of Jerusalem. IV. The Disposition of the Temple and Priests (vv. 12, 21) 1. The temple furniture (vv. 13, 17) The pillars of brass and the brazen sea were broken into pieces by the Babylonians and were carried to Babylon. Certain officers and priests (vv. 19, 21) Certain officers, priests and three score men were taken to Babylon by the king of Babylon, and were staln From Small Beginnings Prayer brings God into what men are pleased to term the little affairs of life.

Waco, Texas, June 8, 1929. Hon. A. K. Leonard. 228 St. Street. Antonio Texas. Dear Alvin: Your letter of the 5th min. mine, Glad to hear from you, have seen their work. I have been in Dallas Was in Dallas when I saw it. This is the same content that I put on your letter. I was the willingness of federal judges in Texas to follow the law like this. The law, I tried to make the able man and does not put tradition the law. I tried to make the Houston and San Antonio see the law as this judge saw it and let us vote, that we have been able to make only one judge that was judge Irwin J. Clark in the first case tried on this subject. He shall of the Texas bar. He survived only a few years after his famous Supreme Court of the United States in nearly the same language. He committed suicide in Houston, and left a wife to have tried hard, oh, so hard, to make the world know the meaning or the worth of the people, to send our friend, May send us another. The only way to enforce the right to vote is by injunction before the election. Damages after the election is a poor remedy for the reason that money can not pay for the right to vote. The N. A. A. C. P., seeing in the Associated Press that I had opened fire in Texas again at Houston, wrote me to keep them posted and send them a transcript of the record, which I did by air mail. After exchanging opinions with me over the remedy, decided to not help in the Houston case but file another damage case at El Paso, and so informed my committee at Houston. The committee believed they were right and I was wrong and dropped the case. This case was in shape to appeal and should have gone up so that the court would determine whether or not these rights could be enforced by injunction before the election, because we had already tested the law in damages for denial of the right after the election. This was the Nixon case from El Paso. I don't think the judge from El Paso filed at the office, will overrule them but will sustain their petition and send them to trial for damages, which I believe they will win, but how much is the question. I believe they will get $5, having won, they can not appeal and we will be done for until another election. I showed all this to the National Association, but they still disagreed with me. If they had appealed the House's� of the Court, I would have been before the United States Subcommittee Counsel and a decision handed down by this time and all the world would have known whether an injunction would lie or not. What we need now is an enforcement law passed by Congress making it a federal offense to deprive Negroes of the rights guaranteed by the 14th and 15th amendments, just as they have done for the 18th amendment by passing the Volstead President Grant's congress passed the civil rights bill in 31 sections making it a felony to deny the right to vote or sit on jury or any public BY WILLIAM PICKENS (For The Associated Negro Press) Madam Rosika Schwimmer, a woman of excellent character and great intelligence, has decided to become a citizen of the United States because she was honest to confess that she would not understand the reasons for any reason. She would not kill, even for her country, and not say that she would not die for her country. In fact, she said that she would be killed for her country or for any other cause she would not commit what she regarded as murder. Madam Rosika is over fifty years of age—and yet, they tell me, she has been permanently and finally denied her truancy because they fear that her refusal to "kill" will be a bad example to her. She has the number of leavers, who could set in the United States, the most widespread country, the most dangerous country, that has leavened that she should not kill is that an underestimate example? What if others learn from her example? What if others learn from her example? What if not kill, especially those of her age? A country that produces more murder than any other country on earth, where women who do not want to kill anyone, even if her example threatens We thought that the supreme court would rise to the height in this case and treat it with the same respect and true, and not a traitor to this country, but confesses that he cannot kill that the unwillingness to kill it, and the obligation to citizenship—especially in this country, where there is no danger how can a non-killer be a "bad" example among killers, among the world's best killers. How can a non-killer be a "bad" example among killers, among the more it puzzles us, and the more outrageous we are? We contend that we will kill. We contend that we will kill. We contend that we will kill. We contend dangerously near to having to do it or attempt it several times. We must not make States a bigger, but not make because she will not kill. In fact, it made us adhere her and want to see her. It certainly is remarkable that the courts of the United States regard an unambiguous attitude of peace in this country. discrimination based on color. The states broke these laws and their officers were prosecuted in the federal court and convicted and the law was construed by the Supreme Court of the United States in the decisions handed down in the 100 U.S. Report in the cases: Ex Parte Virginia, page 313, and Strader vs the State of West Virginia, 100 U.S. Report, page 303, and also Virginia vs. Rives, 100 U.S. Report, page 313, and the U.S. vs Reese, 92 U.S. Report, page 214, the right to vote under the 15th amendment is clearly put which you should read. These cases clearly establish our rights under the amendments. When Cleveland was elected president, he repealed all of the 31 sections of the statute made by Grant except the peonage law. The Republican party agreed to this and turned the Negroes over to the South on a solemn promise that the South would treat us right and prove our best friends. How far they have done so, I leave the world to answer. I tried to have the Lincoln League adopt a resolution at Chicago in 1920, pledging the Republican party to the reenactment of Grant's 31 sections, but the Northern Negroes and the Mississippi crowd were under the influence of Will H. Hays, national chairman at that time and voted my resolution down, with only "Goose-neck Bill" McDonald and the Texas delegation on my side. Roscoe C. Simmons was presiding over the league. The committee on resolutions was composed of Nutter of New Jersey; Judge Billie Houston, now of Gary, Ind.; Oscar DePriest of Chicago; Judge J. A. Cobbs of Washington; Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. of New York and myself. They adopted the Will Hays report in the committee and I brought a minority report to the convention floor. My speech on the minority report swept the convention, but the bosses had their instructions and adopted the Will Hays recommendation. Billie Houston and Oscar DePriest were the only men on the committee that were willing even to hear me in the committee room. Time now has told the story of who was right and who was wrong. We will never get our rights under the constitution until congress protects us under the amendments as it has done prohibition with the Volstead act. It will do this when the Negroes of the nation raise funds to scatter propaganda and bring such characters as Borah and Hiram Johnson to the aid of Tinkham and Oscar DePriest. As long as petty differences and arrogant pride dominate our leaders, we will still be in the wilderness of oppression and hardships. The fight is ours, and the heart of America is right. We need only to stir that heart to action. The nation knows about it now but that knowledge will fade and die unless it is fed one thing at a time. We should have a veritable mind, capable of carrying on all the essentials together. At present, we see only the church and the lodge: the church to take us to heaven and the lodge to place us safely in the grave, while our oppressors use and enjoy the millions raised by both church and lodge. The Independent Colored Voters League is trying to foster these principles but as I said before, it is hard to make the black man see his subject condition. He always sees too late gerous" to the morals of the rest of the world, and the killing of besieged kill. Perhaps帕桑·萨姆·穆里武 would be very willing to risk the lives of those in the treffields and picking up and saying those whom others were trying to kill them. And perhaps they would give up it. Some day poserility will marvel at this attitude of our highest respect for civilization.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JUNE 15, 1929 HOUSTON RAPE CASES AND ARRESTS! According to news items in the daily newspapers of this city, the local police department has arrested about 100 Negroes since the reported criminal attack upon a white woman by a "tramp Negro" last Saturday. Sixty-five or more of the Negroes arrested were charged with loitering and vagrancy, while the others, at time of writing this editorial, were being held for questioning and to be viewed by the victim of the alleged attack. It is singularly strange that every time a criminal attack is reported here wherein a Negro seeks to ravage a white woman or girl, some white girl or girls will rush into print and claim that they have been assaulted criminally by some white men or youth. When the city was all excited over the alleged criminal attack upon a white girl by a Negro youth in the western section of the city several months ago, two additional cases, with all the principals white, were reported to the police department; and while an arrest was made in one case, no arrest has even been made in the other case, and even in the case where the arrest was made no trial has ever been held to determine the guilt or innocence of the alleged Nordic rapist. While the Negro in the "Heights assault case" was remanded to jail without bail at his examining trial and later given a life sentence in the state penitentiary under the most filimay evidence, alleged white rapist, who really was apprehended, was released on a nominal bond, and nothing has been heard of the case since. Despite the fact that the white girl of tender age, who was the victim of one of these reported assaults, gave a fine description of her assailants (mind you, assailants), no wholesale arrests of white men and boys were instituted and conducted by our highly efficient and vigilant police department! Now with the report of the latest attempted criminal outrage against white woman by some "thick burly hurte," comes also the report that three white girls were forced into an automobile by three white youth, driven to the country, attacked and then brought back to the city and dropped on Harrisburg Boulevard. Newspaper reports state that this was a hoax and the case has been dropped. Since no one was an eye-witness to either one of the reported attacks, it is strange how the police department will arrest every Negro they see and either hold him for questioning in the case or charge him with loitering or vagrancy; while hundreds of white youth are remaining the streets, seeking girls whom they may destroy with impunity. If the police department is so efficient in nabbing loiterers and vagrants, why doesn't it make such arrests before some criminal attack is reported; and why make the raid on one particular race, when similar crimes are charged at the hands of members of another race? The Informer is an uncompromising foe to crime, but this paper can not agree with the Southern philosophy and tradition that a Negro rapist or criminal is more beautly and vicious than a white man engaged in the same crime; and that Negroes should be prosecuted in the same cases, while ways are discovered to exonerate or absolve the white rapist who attacks and destroys women and girls of both races. This paper has been criticized quite often for saying that the South has a double standard—one for white citizens and another for colored people—and that the color of the alleged criminal and the racial identity of his victim, whether criminal assault, murder, rape, or kidnapping, is more important and conviction than the crime itself; but the Informer informs that records will substantiate its position in this respect. A white woman of middle years is reported to have been roughly handled, not criminally outraged, by a Negro and the entire community is alarmed and literally up in arms, while the country, side is being scoured for the guilty culprit, and Negroes are being prosecuted for the crime, unless the fact that they are colored is a crime, but because some Negro is charged with having attempted to harm a white woman; yet nobody was the alleged attack. Several criminal attacks upon white girls, where the alleged attackers were also white men and youth, have been reported and chronicled here during recent months, with only one arrest and no convictions; and thus far no wholesale arrests of white men and youth have been conducted by either the police or constabulary department.

This decision to change trains gave us an opportunity to visit our friend, J. H.

We were nurses connected with this institution and face of every one of the 25 or more patients we visited, lighted up with pleasure when Dr. Riddle entered the room. We were with a cheerful 'Hello, how's the gang, all right.' Some responded. Dr. Riddle is also manufacturing a number of products, such as Riddle blood pressure meter, blood pressure pressure, etc. Fifteen different products are being made in the R. C.

C. President Hoover has solemnly warned the people that the United States is the most criminal of the civilized nations of the earth. This statement and not only that, but the moral monitoring over the conscience of mankind. We are prone to boast of our moral leadership and to assume the moral monitoring over the conscience of mankind. But now come Mr. Hoover with his quicker bluntness and more truth. Our schools are full to overflow. We boast of our increasing church membership. The agencies of social and moral betterment are spending money by the millions, and yet the crime wave is on the increase. We are wealthiest and the wickedest nation on the face of the globe. As she wailows in wealth she waxes in wickedness. We have before us the example Babyylon, Nineveh and Tyre. The wealth and wickedness. Mr. Hoover has essayed the task of a social engineer with calculated purpose to net the nation to rights. He goes about the task with the scientific precision which characterizes his profession. He mines the nature and cause of prevailing lawlessness before adequate remedy is enforcement to be approved. His law enforcement commission is calculated to serve this preliminary purpose. All true patriots must fall in behind Hoover in his great moral program. The Negro forms a well defined group, circumscribed and set apart beyond any other element of the American people. The Negro race kinds than any other section into which our population is divided. These imperfections are easy to account for and to explain. But the bald face remains. There is more ignorance, poverty and crime among Negroes than among white people. The criminality to credit record statistics. Just as Mr. Hoover has called upon the American people to face their reacross as the only means of effectively removing it, so our race leadership should call upon the Negro race to face the criminality in the eyes of their white fellowmen. Nothing is to be gained by blinking or denying the facts. They stare at us from every direction. If we turn to statistics we find that the Negro in the South appears to have three times as criminal as the white people, and we rejoin that the laws are unfair and inequitably enforced. This factor must be given its proper weight. But on the other hand, when we to the north, the Negro shows up as five or six times as criminal as the white, and two or three times as criminal as his Southern black brother. The Negro newspaper convicts the race of criminal propensity in the eyes of their readers, white or black we peruse our leading weeklies for the news, and scandal, sensation and crime. Fifty-two editions a year tell the same old story. The headline of murder bootlegging and debauchery first greets the eye. The Negro's education and culture seem to have little relation to the crime, if we are to believe the portrayal of Negro newspapers. The preacher debaches his chair leader the doctor prescribes lilical lager; the school teacher rists in domestic violence; the pastor portrays it all, without shame or reproof. The education which our youth are now receiving seems to have little or no relation to their moral life. Our churches are boasting of their swollen statistics of member-age and fear of being bare no traceable relation to the moral life of the people. If crime and lax moral idea are threats the perpetuity of the American people, as Mr. Hoover seriously asserts, how much more certainly must the Negro be treated by underinforming moral decay. I would not be an important pessimist, nor yet a fatous optimist, like the ostrich which hides it head under the sand with the vain delusion that eye does not see the heart need not see the truth, and the truth shall make you free. Full knowledge and acknowledgement of the facts are essential to any effective remedy. The crime of bootlegging is a case in point. The Negro is perhaps the most active of all small scale bootleaders to evince little or no scruples in his actions in eight hours ahead. This criminal act OPINIONS titude is by no means limited to the man lowest down in the scale of intelligence and standing. It is not confined to the slam and abuse of the enemy, but to no great reverence for prohibition or the enforcement of the eighteenth amendment. Negro ministers, as a general thing, do not preach it from their pulpits. Negro newspapers do not thunder against it in their reliance on the power of the organized organizations rarely ever perma resolutions calling on the people to uphold the principles of temperance and the laws to abolish the liquor evil. Our refined social circles laugh at the laws, none of the plain facts of observation any one can verify by his own experience and observation. The Negro race should first of all be concerned by the enforcement of law and order. He is at once the judge of the law and the chief victim of helmets. I believe that the first question as to the appointment of a colored man on Mr. Hoover's law enforcement commission appeared in one of these weekly releases. My thought was that the law should be applied to all Americans, is or should be clearly enforced in any measure that makes for law and order. Although we have not as yet perfect a moral pedagogy, still our schools should stress all things the moral conduct. Our preachers should thunder from their palsis that all men should eschealt and that sin in repress. Our preachers should stress obedience to the constitution and the laws. These things are essential to the salvation of the race. Surely, then, if Mr. Hoover can tell the American people that they must either obey the law, or perish without the law, who those who are not perish and destiny of the Negro should ever and man, the conundrum that the path of sin is the way to death.

During these two decades we have observed many transitions and many of them have required our embarkation, have failed to course simultaneously with and even subsequent to our embarkation, have failed to storm the storms and run the race with patience and endurance. We have given us a name of gift and take—often likened to a game of chance—and the man or woman who with an inexperience, void of the spirit to stand on the barriers, is deceived to failure before hunching upon any career.

When it was over the audience went down into the basement to dance. There Eugenia was in her element. A wave of young men surged toward her, and for the next half-hour she was busy dancing and warding off flatte. Once as she fitted by a pillar she saw Bertrand Devenaux, a lonely figure, leaning against it. She turned back. "Don't you dance, Mr. Devenaux?" "Yes." "Then why don't you?" "I'm a total stranger here. I've been in New York only two weeks, you know. You're the only girl I've met." "And you haven't really met me." "Yes, I have. The great god Morpheus introduced us.

Meeting Brown Beatles She introduced him to a half-downed of Harlem's brown tulip, and watched him. She soon saw that he was no stranger to society. He knew how to bow and how to dance.

How He Became Intellectual I had wondered about his English, for he spoke as a scholar, with the wisdom of the old masters. He explained this to me by saying, "In the days of my ignorance and superstition when I first went to New York, met an intellectual barn; each morning I would buy ten reps worth of higher and he is, in turn, would give me less sons in the fundamentals. From him I learned much of science, art, history, anthropology and kindred sciences. At first I decided to enter night school. I went one night and never went again, because it embarrassed me to go among people who possessed more education than myself. I have been very observant all my life. When I secured employment I always watched the man above me. I learned to express myself exactly the way he expressed himself. I memorized many beautiful sayings of people with whom I entered the cultural cooperation. That was so accumulated a large vocabulary.

My diet varies but little and yet I never tire of it." "I walk many miles each day. I don't smoke, drink or even chew gum, because I found out that those things do not preserve youth." Adylacca Youth "Our youth must be taught to conserve their vital energy. The energy they burn up foolishly, enjoying life as they call it, could serve them faithfully in the carrying on of some worth while project." "You believe in the young people of today, don't you?" I asked him. "Oh, yes, there are many things they must learn: foremost among them is this one. Our boys must learn to respect our women and to honor them and really believe they are the equal of any women on the face of the world.

I often think that the ancient custom of the dowry—which Europe still adheres to—was very wise. For if the wife always brought something when she came to her husband it would insure greater permanence to the union. It was just another way of giving the couple something to start on. This is particularly necessary in old countries where opportunity to make money is limited and lucky breaks are few.

ROGERS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) DON'T MISS THIS MYSTERIOUS STORY! Beginning in the June 22nd Issue of The Illustrated Section bits that go into the Pepper-Pot may not be eaten for weeks and weeks. Besides you know the saying A watched pot never boils While waiting for the avalanche of wit and humor to pour in, we'd better get busy. The editor suggested that we begin with a series of articles on Paris. So since there is no help for it, here goes: Paris has the distinction of being the only city in which we have not been bored. In Chicago, where we once lived, time hung heavy on our hands. The same is true of London. It was a little less true of New York. In Berlin, Rome, Vienna, Milan, Brussels, things were a little better. But being in Paris is like being on a perpetual holiday. There are amusements to suit every taste in Paris. They range from the sublime to the silly, from the sacred to the sexy. Are you interested in art and literature? Well, there are museums and libraries galore. Are you religious? You can ask nothing better. ```markdown ``` For Pimply Skin Peterson's Ointment All pimple are infiltration of the skin and are not cured by and best applied to get rid of the pimples by using by millions for centuries, and to have the blemish all over shine.

The parks and businesses are the first, and most beautiful in the world, chief of which is the Chaucer-Elynes. Do you like thereat? You can see any night. But perhaps your tastes run well—to things a bit more frivolous? Then you can go to places where the leader frolic in the leaves, and if you are exacting you may see them dance in less. And prices are arranged to suit every pocket. Some of the places are so cheap you go in for the price of a pack of chewing gums; others are so dear that the French thrill by nature, will not pass through even the odor of the bill strike them on the sidewalk. There is Montmartre. This is the just, and acted, spot on earth and the first place visited by every good American. Cut out Montmartre THIS LETTER Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co. Lymn, Mass. "Today I received one of your little booklets giving various letters of women who highly praise your wonderful medicine, Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I have taken it and it has relieved me a great deal. I used to suffer from headaches and pain like many women, but I am glad to say now that I don't have any of those ailments. My mother told me about the Vegetable Compound, and I am recommending it to all my friends. There are two young ladies in the house where I live and I tell them to take your medicine too." — Mrs. Erlem Monks, 1306 Corcoran St., N.W., Washington, D.C. YOUR DRUGGET SELLER Lydia E.

Paris has an awful reputation, although the average Parisian is not a bad worse than the average citizen of Hickville, Oshkosh, or any place you may name. He goes to the bed early because he has to punch the new. But Paris' reputation is the making and the hotel-keepers, the lousers and the cheers, the players, the modelates and dress-makers, would certainly set up a bowl. For with the present war against cabarets and sexy places in America, Montmartre is doing a finer business than ever. Montmartre's night life reminds us of Harlem and Chicago's South Side. When the respectable Nordic wants to cut loose he goes to Harlem. When the Englishman wants to have a good time he comes to Paris though a Montmartre would be unthinkable in straight-laced England. France is the land of personal liberty. Every one minds his own business. The principal music halls of Montmartre are the Polles-Bergere, the Cieles and the Paris. All fours of the Moulins' olives are the franksy called to the nude, and the jokes are well-a trifle high. If you don't understand French, however, you'll keep as straight a face as if you were the line to a son of whole all around you, are laughing. Scores of ladies throng the stage. Some have figures eclipsing the Veme of Milo, and almost eclipsing the man at the clothing, rather lack of it. Some of the chorus girls, who, by the way, are mostly English, do wear a garment about one-fifth the size and thickness of the sun rail.
