RESETTLEMENT INCIDENTS
BACK INFORMER'S POSITION
Accepting an invitation previously extended by Prof. Jesse J. Burnett, principal Cabrine High School and another Texas TRAIN instructor, this columnist spent last Thursday in Fort Worth, where we met with the president of the Park of Waco, William "Bill" Madison McDonald at a public function, Thursday. We met with the president of thirty years of continuous service as most worshipful grand secretary of the Church and Accepted Masons of Texas.
Due to illness of my wife, which neared an on-eyed train Thursday night, we were not afforded the opportunity to present to McDonald as program manager of Waco and Master of Ceremonies J. J. Burnett altered the program so that the attribution to this noted Texas before leaving the convention hall to catch up with us.
We spent Thursday at the Masonic mosque, where all the sessions of the day were held of the Eastern Star, Heroines of Jericho, Knights Templar and juveniles; we drew the Lone Star, commonwealth. (When it comes to delegates and the apprehension of five brains, the largest attendance of its kind of any secret order in Texas, judging from the presence of monsieur at the Pantherville parley).
Despite the terrific heat prevailing in Texas, the delegates and visitors, as an Fort City citizen, crowded the mosque auditorium and were at Fort City programs Thursday, while many were unable to gain admittance and had to content themselves on the outside at
Three public programs were held Thumbnail: McDonald, who has served as grand secretary of the Texas Mason's for thirty consecuent years, and McDonald, who has solubly connected with the manhattan growth of the order during these tribals. Tribute after tribute was paid this incomparable leader by speakers from all sections of the state, as well as by Colonel Roscoe Cockling Simmons of the Texas Mason's for thirty consecutive speakers, who has a host of friends and admirers in the Lone Star State. The stellar feature of the anniversary celebration, and he literally swept the huge audience off its feet, related to a recent contribution this noted Texan has played in the history and progress not only of race and Texas. Anies from the many beautiful bouquet of flowers presented Mr. McDonald, who has published a very attractive book giving the history of the Texas Mason's and banker, particularly as it relates to the Mason order. Anies illuminating and comprehensive report, Mr. McDonald not only reviewed the history of the order, but pertinent facts regarding the establishment of this branch of Freemasonry in Texas, and compared the manhattan growth of the order manually and numerically, with that of 1899 when he became the grand master of Free and Accepted Masons of Texas.
This report also appears in the book which was printed as a souvenir of Mr. McDonald's thirty years' service in his present secretarial role, and will also be found elsewhere in this issue of The Informer.
Taken by and large, last Thursday was "McDonald Day" at the Masonic grand lodge, and Texans were there by the hundreds and thousands to accord this distinguished leader the honor and landau d'ord de such long and faithful service.
Leaving Fort Worth Thursday night on the "Owl," night passenger train operated by the Southern Pacific Lines via Waxahchele to Ennis, where the regular "Owl" from Dallas is met and joined, this writer had a very interesting experience on boarding the train at Ennis after our change.
When the train from Dallas pulled into Ennis, where the train crew was changed, instead of assisting the colored female passengers on the train with their luggage and baggage, the Negro porter rushed ahead of all colored passengers and placed the conductor's "office equipment" on two seats in the colored compartment of the day coach.
The coach in question was divided into two sections, one occupied by

Prof. William Clemens served as master of ceremonies, and musical numbers were rendered by the Harry T. Burleigh Harmony Club of Fort Worth, W. F. Bledge, Jr. president. Both at the morning hour and the evening hour the group held their auditoria, and were compelled to respond to several encores. The singing of Mrs. L.

Memphis, Teann, —(ANP)—Reports that A. F. Ward, Leroy Williams and E. J. Rasbier, officers of the defunct Solvent and Fraternal Bank, who were involved in the years respectively in prison for embezzlement, had been released from prison after serving about one year have given rise to many ugly rumors which were circulated when the indictment was made. These rumors are to the effect that the failure of the bank was the outcome of a distinct conspiracy between white interests and the officers of the bank to bring about the extinction of the bank. The bank was also accused as an indication of too much economic independence. When the officers of the bank were sentenced it was also rumored that they would not serve the allotted time and that the bank would have been released, it is the consensus of opinion that powerful forces have been working in their behalf and those who instigated the rumor knew that the other defendants regarded that the other defendants regarded as less culpable who were awaiting appeals will never be imprisoned.

(Contributing Editor)
White Plains, N. Y. We arrived in this lovely little city Friday after a long day in Washington we were entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Bottuee and their charming daughter, Miss Oreans, at their residence on French Street. The Bottuees are former Texans in Washington since 1905, know more about Houston than most of us who boast of being Houstonians. I learned from him much of the early history of our city. In fact I know of his family. He has known his Houston equally as well, and he is Editor C. N. Love.
While at the Bottuee we were honored by a call from Dr. and Mrs. Koepe, who were also Addie Green, who for several terms taught at Gregory School. Mrs. Koepe, who worked, while Dr. Koepe, her husband is a chiropractor and an employee of
For the past three or four days we drove in driveways and pathways, to be found anywhere in America. You may remember, like White Plains is the county site, as being known throughout the entire country, the most beautiful country in the world. It boasts of being one of the twelve original counties of the state of New York. During the Revolutionary War this town was the neutral ground. This period gave to a great deal that is now romance to the student of American history the legends of an important niche in the many decisive battles of the revolution were fought within a stone's throw. Where I sit now writing these lines.
Not only do we walk and drive daily over ground hallway by the feet of our guests, but we are here, also, that JJ has led the hills and plains that had been trodden by the weary feet of Harvey Birch (Bloch Crosby), when serving as a captain in the war in it was the territory that Betaya Plangan披 her mans over the hills and plains of Dr. Siegleaves and dispensing the lights of science. This woman has been the world the American cocktail, a Westchester County creation and invention that takes place in the mountains, wholly enveloped by such distinguished men as Washlington Book, *Egil Allen Poe*, Joseph Rodan Drake, Francis W. Edmond, the "merchant artist"; Governor Morris Samuel Seabury, D. D., the first bishop Widley Seabury, C. Connecticut; Whitney Seabury, D. D.
It has been our pleasure and privilege to visit many points of historic Chester county, among which may be mentioned: Chappaupa, where stans stand; the site of a large Indian village, 376 bldg., 378 bldg., 378 bldg., White Plains, and Odell House, occupied by Count Dr. Rechambre as his campaign; Mamaneocue, the J. Feniore Cooper's house, where he operated his American novel "The Spi." Mt. Verone, New Bedford, where New Bedford, where Stans Thomas Paine's house and monument the Paul Revere house, and many other places. At (this point in my story, I go to the Yankee Stadium to see a double. Boston). I will mention the town of Tarrytown where the home of Washin ington Irving is located as is also the Bridge of the Heights and the Bridge of the Heights.
Westchester County has an area of 463 square miles. On the south and west, it has Sound for 28 miles, and Hudson River for 28 miles. The Rhine of America, constituted its largest river, has Sound for 29 miles. Its present assessment is $454,111,909, and increasing assessments are said to have the finest system of highways upon the continent, there being over 867 miles of highways. The most important exceptions to be found in America is the Brown River Parkway, costing over $100 million from Moshol Parkway in the city of New York, northward, through the Bronx and the Bronx Parkway, base of the world-famous Kenzie Dam created to store only a majestic number of water behind it but which receives and distributes the water sent down from the Catkill mountains and other. With all this natural and artificial surroundings my own city is a place for words. As yet I have given New York City the most beautiful through in your Franklin, "on the way up here. I find the big cities, great cities surrounding me, and I simply possess more and larger buildings and a more congested population. I also simply possess more and larger impressions I get from the sights in "Il ole Nu York," and from Harlem in home from home.
Incidentally, let me say, Houston isn't the hottest place I know. Wish for my Palm Beach suits daily.

WHITE SPEAKER
WARNS NEGROES
OF CRIMINALTY
Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—Predicting that unless some way was evolved to stem the present current, that Net grees within ten years would form the chief population of Illinois's prisons, Rodney H. Brandon, head of the Department of Public Welfare of Illinois, speaking before the Progressive Community Center, 48th and Wabash Avenue, last Sunday night, urged that greater care and attention be given youthful Negroes throughout the state but in Chicago particularly.
“As long as the Negro gets the end of employment, the most meager wages, and is forced to live in the most congested and the worst districts in town, just that long may we expect a high percentage of criminality from the group,” said Mr. Brandon, who won his high place in the official family of the state not through politics, but because he is a great humanitarian. He for twenty years has been executive secretary of the Loyal Order of Moose, of which James J. Davis, L. S. Secretary of Inters. via president general, and at Moose-heart, Illinois, Mr. Brandon conducts what is probably America's most famous home for orphaned children.
Poverty and vicious living conditions do more to manufacture criminals and to promote misery and unhappiness than any other cause, he continued. "It is not a matter of race either. Over at the Institute for Juvenile Research there are kept a group of maps dating back for 20 years. Marked in squares they portray every area at youthful under made during each of these 20 years. The situation is easy to see. Some localities are free of any arrests at all. Others are black with them. The worst district, that near which the Tribune Tower and the former home of Mrs. Potter Palmer is located, is twenty-six times more apt to produce criminals than the best district.
Twenty years ago we had a German wave of population through our prisons, fifteen years ago it was Scandinavian, ten years ago it was Irish. Today, the Italian wave is at the weight, and ten years from today, for all the signs point to it, the Negro population of prisons will be at its height. The results are certain. Whenever we have large numbers of juvenile infractions and arrests, it follows a surely as day does night that later developments will produce criminality unless environment is improved and some ameliorating steps taken. Too many more of boys and girls are going to be going to the way into the institutions and prisons, under the charge of my department.
The speaker likened the necessity for welfare work and guidance of the children to the need for flood or fire insurance. He provided take preventative measures than to suffer the cost and misery which neglect will bring. Three per cent of the Brandon said, "We have home, where death or some other loss, the mother is a widow, is the most fruitful source of delinquency. The child warriors of the community have to him out. He starts to life. There is no one to contact him with a job. He works contact and his downfall is started. Through these and other causes as the records will show the Negro youth is building up an unviable record in crime. The preventative measures of the communities, the citizens themselves. The state is powerless unfortunately until the
"Where are your fraternals? I am a believer in fraternals. Why not organize in neighborhoods, in your churches, and save these boys?" Projected on the proper basis, $4 per month, every individual community could have protection for a life time. Such a plan has proven feasible. Select a group of boys, picking out those who are orphans or half orphans and follow them through. See that they get a helpful word, are kept in contact with a job, make yourselves responsible for them. Neither a church or an organization could do a more Christian job.
"Fortunately, we have good schools here. If anybody grows up in ignorance in Chicago, it's his or her own fault. I gathered the figures five years ago. Illinois was spending $250 per year on each child. That covered the state. In Chicago it is much higher, er. In Mississippi, the average per child was only $60. But the school cannot help the boy or girl unless someone sees to it that they go to school and are given the helpful, interested guidance of a mother or father."
"It's a serious problem, and we need the help of you fathers, mothers and responsible citizens."

Leaders Commend Business League Latest Program
Commenting on the splendid survey of Negro business conducted by the National Negro Business League and the activities of the league many local branches which have carried out constructive programs during the year. The Negro business leaders have this to say:
“The Winston-Salem demonstration was a unique enterprise, and from what I have read, greatly stimulated Negro business. I congratulate the league on this fine, constructive piece of work.”—S. W. Rutherford, secretary-manager, National Benefit Life Insurance Company, Washington, D.C.
“This report has moved Negro business from the status of the sick child of the family of race efforts into care and supervision of expert and sympathetic attendants. Nurture and ministrations of safe and sound policies of treatment should soon restore this important, needy, and needed number of our family to be rightful place in prestige service in the family household.”—C. C. Spaulding, North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, Durham, N. C.
In undertaking and consummating this mammoth piece of work, the league has not only justified its existence, but it has wrought a very constructive service of the Negro group and the American nation.

SENTENCE NEGRO Women's Auxiliary IN SHORT ORDER Held State Parley; IN ATTACK CASE Launched Program
Natchitoches, Ln.—(ANP)—Jimmy Johnson, 25, was tried, convicted and sentenced to be hanged for attacking a young white girl in the Bayou Natchez territory near here two weeks ago, in less than twenty-four hours.
Owing to the indignation aroused by the crime and the fear by officials of possible trouble, Johnson was hurried away to another jail by Sheriff J. W. Payne after the trial for safekeeping, and the date of his execution will be set later.
Only one hour and thirty-five minutes elapsed from the impaneling of the jury to the sentencing of the defendant, whose only testimony was that he confessed to the crime. He showed no emotion except when Judge John F. Stephens sentenced to "hang" by the neck until dead, dead, dead. Then he drew one hand across his neck as if he already felt the tightening of the rope.
The girl identified Johnson as her assailant and other witnesses substituted her testimony. The verdict of the jury, which was out only five minutes, was received in sillenged, though the courtroom was thronged. Defense attorneys merely sought to see that "no illegal evidence was introduced."

RACE NOTABLES GET AWARDS TO STUDY ABROAD
Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—An example of the extended and diversified use of the new Rosewood Trust, the origi- nal institution for the education of rural schools for Negroes in the South, is displayed in a recent an- govement president of the fund, Ewen R. Ein- inch, in which gifts that will enable advanced studies in Europe are reported. Those who are to profit from the Rosewood benefaction are Dr. E. E Just of Howard University, Willa J. King, professor at Gammon Theo, Miss Augusta Savage, sculptor of New York City. The fund has provided $80,000 to cover a five-year period for support of the research and teaching at Howard University of Dr. Just in contem- porary of an important graduate department in biology at that institution. Just is spending a part of this year at the Marine Zoological Laboratory in Naples, Italy, and will visit other bi- ological institutions.
Dr. Just was born in Charleston, South Carolina, graduated from Dartmouth College, and earned a distinguished reputation as a professor of biology at the University of Chicago. He earned a distinguished reputation as a professor of biology research at Howard and at the Woods Hole Biological Laboratory in Massachusetts. He brought greatest credit to the Negro race during that year. He is the founder of the scientific men the race possesses and is listed as one of the most successful scientists of any group reported in the volume "American Medical Profession." The Kearney king has been awarded a Rosenwald Fellowship for a year of study in Oxford University, and he graduated of Wiley College and of Boston University. He received the degree of doctorate from the University of Chicago in 1921. He has been a teacher of the Old Testament and of sociology at Gammon since 1918. He is the teacher of young and negro students in History, an interacial study text for young white and negro students at World Student Christian Federation conference held in Peking, China, an interacial study text for World Student at World Student General Conference at the Methodist, Mass. University, and the Methodist, Episcopal Church. Miss Savage was born in Florida in 1910.

Arkansas and Texas
BY WILLIAM PICKENS
(For the Associated Negro Press)
For more than a month we have been in Arkansas and Texas, in some places where we no longer know where no member of my clan ever beet in feet. For most of these places we were led; but in some of them the leaders were忙; in some of them the leaders men with fear. All the more honor to the brave among them, I have been able to see some things that would tax creditivity.
In one Arkansas town, when we were only four men and we were only four men and we were only four men, they had been simply afraid to advertise the meeting, or the people we six people talked the matter over, as to the lawfulness and reasonable conduct on the part of a minority and weaker people for self-defense and legal defense from each of the other five there present. And to show you what they were talking about, we talked between eleven dwellers that night and eight o'clock next morning before my office and in my last half hour in the town we enrolled and effected a considerable number of permanent meetings to get up the "mass" meeting at which five appeared the day before.
Some places said unequivocally, "It can't be done here," before we left New York. Four others cancelled the engagements just before I reached them. When they had begun to work up the affair, they began to run across others who were afraid and gradually fear filled the workers. In one case I received the cancelling telegram just before I was to take the train to that city—and it was a big city. Something happened there ten years ago, and it seems that they are afraid at all. How anybody can be afraid for TEN YEARS is a puzzle to us. We could get familiar with the devil in less time than that. Ten years of fear would paralyze our fear nerves so that they wouldn't operate any longer and we would lose the capacity for fear.
In another place, I was left thinking that the meeting was to be had.
Normal School came to New York to study art. She was worked at Coop-Union and in the studios of H. A. McNeil and Onorio Ruotolo, former dean of the Leonardo da Vinci School. Her sculpture has attracted wide and favorable attention. The fellowship enables her to continue her study and work in France and Italy.

until the actual minute for the meeting to begin. And when I said, "It's time for us to go to meeting place," somebody took up the phone and phoned somebody and got some unfortunate report—and I was told that there would be no meeting.
In all such cases, of course, the outsider, the stranger, especially any "Northerner," and most especially a "Northern Negro," is the person really in danger. And it always seemed to us that if the outsider was willing to run the risk, those who live on the spot and have ten times the better chance for defense, should be willing to participate.
Of course Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma, in some of the smaller places, are much more savage than similar places in the southeast—Georgia or South Carolina or Alabama Arkansas and Northeast Texas are really in a class with Mississippi. It was always the "natives" that made the most dire predictions about some places to which we went; in some they asked: "How can you risk coming to a place like this?" When I mentioned to people in Little Rock about some little place ahead of me in Arkansas, they said: "Well, if we're you, I would just write my office that my mind changed about that place." I'll be dogged if I'd ever go there.
You will notice that so far I have called no names. But it is good to call the name of the brave. The whole list would be too long. Little Rock and Pine Bluff in Arkansas have always stood on their feet in some very trying crises, too. And Hot Springs, where the Negro is well-organized in other ways, turned out in its best and effected a defense organization in one try. We notice that the masses are braver wherever the leaders are in harmony; wherever the lawyers, doctors, business men and teachers were in favor of organized defense, the people followed.
Texarkana, Ark., for example, is situated in one of the worst parts of all God's world, but there we saw one of the best organizations in the whole country. They were ordered to disband ten years ago. They did not obey orders. They are not likely to be even so ordered again.
In Dallas, Texas, under the leadership of a former officer, Rev. R. T. Andrews of our Houston branch, the people stood up and threw off the repression of ten years and organized in one effort, and have been holding meeting every two weeks since.
San Antonio is always there. Corpus Christi organized under the lead of the business school, Shorehorne.

Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)“Harlem,” the drama starring an-Nile-Gost, has been purified and police commissioners “puffing squad” has continued to use its run at the Apollo Theater here. The cleaning process was introduced Friday morning after the commissioner served notice on the management of the theater that if the show was given again the management would be arrested. At a conference between the commissioner’s squad and the management of the show Friday afternoon, the purified edition of “Harlem” was presented and approved. According to the commissioner, all parts which were objectionable had been deleted and the expurgation has been completed. It will fit for the Chicago theater-goering public to witness without danger of
Listen: he's a preacher, pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church; and he is a politician, an organizer of Negro votes, to whom anybody in that city will listen; and he is a fighter, and has been defending Negroes against legal discrimination without the aid of any organization except his personal, religious, and political following. Hendon will fight any kind of necessary way—either with his fists or with the votes which he can influence. If Negroes can organize and fight for their rights in Marlin, Yoakum, Seguin and Gonzales, Texas, why can they not do so in Chicago or Hartford?
The economic strength of Negro people in many of the larger cities would astonish people from the Northeast who are unacquainted with the Southwest. Negro business men and institutions are economic factors in Hot Springs, Little Rock, Pine Bluff, Dallas and Houston.
And with all this, there is a certain terror in the air—narrow the maturation of the black people, other, but everywhere detectable. Discrimination against the Negro is the most severe of the year of advance makes the Negro in the air keep down, the white people in the air move out, the white population of the white population to keep Negroes in the air, the white population under theoretical, "qualified laws" and impartial constitutions in the air, the white population under prejudices to perpetuate his advantage by unfair repression of black people, becomes a very painful situation, the black people are "rabbit" in them, others, like DaWal Kwame Nkrumah, seem to carry the "rubble foot".

Being the last person to board the train at Eminis, this train sat down over a large fire for the train conductor, but the calm passenger passed through the station, and he found to another seat, to have to find another seat.
The passenger, a passenger, and had paid first-class fare and was seated rather comfortably in the section of the couch reserved by law for the partner's domain.

Two regrettable incidents have taken place in this community recently, resulting in the loss of life by a constable and city police officer, and the suicide in one instance and death in the other of two Negroes.
On the night of Juneteenth a constable was slain on the outskirts of the city, the fatal shot, it is alleged, hunting been fired by a Negro who was a member of an emancipation day celebration party. (The black was Some two days later a victim of his own man.)
Conflicting stories have been told regarding this tragedy, but it appears that loss of life would not have been necessary had the constabulary of fiery employed a little tact and forethought.
Flurthenmen, it is removed that the slain officer had no warrant for raiding the house where the party was in progress, and that white men imperforming peace officers have been raiding and terrorizing Negro houses and joints in the section of the county where the unfortunate killing took place.
Since Sunday night a white deterrence was killed in the Fifth Ward, the victim of a Negro, according to reports; and the black was also fatally shut for the slain detective's partner.
According to newspaper reports, those two detainees were to a colorful Negro. Negro was reported to have been disbanded prison, and when they drew up a knife, he entered the house with a knife. Followed in, a colorful hand possibly could have armed such a perceptible incident. For the Negro had not committed any crimes, unless the act of returning to him was considered an act of murder. The information has contended repeatedly that Shiongut sought to have Morex arrested, a pattern all colored with the danger of interracial clashes can be minimized if this policy is pursued by police department. Only in a case where the police officers should it be given their guns in attempting to blast the blanks in particularly where miting some crime; but there is a cottage difference between arresting a white officer and arresting a black officer who does not miting some crime, in which serious trouble is often precluded, occasionally culminating with fatal

Evolution in Growth and Degeneration in Objects of 30 Years
Today many officers, both grand and junior, must have knowledge of Jersey Star rack brains and put forth their best efforts to find ways and means to ignore and avoid the use of rules, regulations and ancient customs of Free Massons, Herines of Massons, or a court Herines of Jersey Star. Sixyears ago the best men and women in town or city were permitted to become members of a lodge of Massons, or a court Herines of Jersey Star. Sixyears ago the best men and women convicts, law-leavers, gambler boot-legers, one-legged, one-handed, a judge, a sandy house keeper, a scrubber and swimmer, thieves and graffiti prisoners, a prisoner to become members of a law-enforcement influence of some officers, both grand and subordinate of Massons, Herines of Massons, or a court or an Eastern Star chapter. Sixyears ago only honest and efficient men and women who considered it an honor to serve the order or a court or an Eastern Star chapter. Today men and women do not think it is an honor to serve the order or a court or an Eastern Star chapter, if they are not permitted to use the their own, they do not want the offer.
Thirty years ago Masons, Heroines and Eastern Stars' chief object was to establish a band of men and women who would stand for the best in human society, looking after widows and orphanage; watching by the bedside of sick members and cultivating brotherly love, doing real acts of charity. Today's lessons, Heroines and Eastern Stars' chief object is to establish, scatter throughout the state little weak bands of men and women into lodges, Heroines of Jericho courts, and Eastern Star chapters for the purpose of making jobs of graft, living on the funds of the lodge, court or chapter, charging big fees to represent the lodge or court, or the chapter each year in the grand lodge, the grand court or the grand chapter. Sons even charge for attending their members' funeral.
Thirty years ago officers, both grand and subordinate, labored to uphold the order without a thought of personal reward or pay, and felt that to be elected to a grand or a subordinate office was a distinction and a great honor.
Today, officers, both grand and subordinate, conspire, plot, electioner and clique together to be elected as that they may be better enabled toవిde, and the great grafts of the world are the bests of the course of the chapter's funds for their personal and private benefits.
Thirty years ago men and women sought membership in a Masonic lodge or a court Heroism of Jericho, or an Eastern Star chapter for grand, noble and lofty purposes—for the good they could do for their God, home, state or human society.
Today men and women seek membership in a Masonic lodge, or a court Heroism of Jericho, or an Eastern Star chapter for the purpose of getting cheap life insurance and the privilege of wearing the pins, buttons and hedges of the orders.
Thirty years ago the beneficiaries of a dead Mason, or an Eastern Star, or a Heroine would no more sue the order for a charitable gift of relief than they would now go upon the top of a thirty-story building and jump off.
Today the beneficiaries of dead Masons, Heroines and Eastern Stars, ailed and abetted by officers both grand and subordinate, will form criminal conspiracies to sue the order for moneys to which they know under the laws, they are not entitled.

DuBois Believes Negro Race Has Opportunity In U. S .Political Life
PAGE SIX—FIRST IN COMPLETENESS
Chicago, III.—(ANP)—Although the United States of America is conducting the greatest experiment in popular government, there is less use of it than in other countries. Americans than by the citizens of any first-rate country in the world to date, asserted Dr. W. E. B. DuBois editor of the Crisis, before delegates to the recent Fact-Finding Conference in Washington, D.C., the "Average American does not know nearly as much about the political life of the nation as the average knew fifty years ago," Dr. DuBois wrote. "Over hundred years he will be totally ignorant of the real way the government is carried out." Some of the responsibility for this ignorance is placed upon the press of America, for the editor continues to insist that the nation's governing force is the people who own the newspaper and distribute news, opinion, in all sorts of forms, do not want the people in the United States to know any too much about the political organization of the United States.
If you watched the last presidential campaign you saw an extraordinary series of things taking place, can remember when a presidential campaign was a time of rival political parties. The campaign was a time of a time corresponding in some ways to the question hour of the British parliament. Now in the political campaigns that used to be carried on in the United States you had a little of that. In small terms, the campaign is a time of train parties came before the people stood up, made a speech, somebody asked questions and for a time the gentlemen more or less defended, explained, let in a little light on the government was carried on. The last campaign was successfully made from it. You could not ask Mr. Hoover anything over the radio. You might assume he was anxious to have questions put to him, but it could not be done. The whole campaign was a effort of the people to get the agenda and we got out of it knowing a little bit less about government than when we went in.
"Toward what end is this tending? What does it mean? It means the persons carrying on the government are in the interfergence; do not want interference and the only you particularly—but from the mass of people in the United States."
After pointing out the extent of American political ignorance and its importance as a national problem, the veteran editor and sociologist oclarly said he believed this very paucity of knowledge and interest on the matter of the average American presented
CHICAGO NEGROES
KNOCKED HARLEM,
RACE PRODUCTION
(For the Associated Negro Press)
As this is written, "Harlem," that colorful drama of a phase of which New York Negrose lead, is putting in its last days in Chicago. The theater, a man, a young colored man, and in collaboration with Wm. Joonan Rapp, has reasonable success. He followed after repeated misunderstandings because who felt they were undergird and the producer, Edward Blatt, had grown to such proportions that Blatt knew early favor with which New York, or Broadway, viewed the production was sufficient to inspire the men behind it to it a second comedy and went afterwards to Chicago. This company with Andrew Bishop, the director, Vivian Babae, was to have found, Vivian Babae, was to have found, it did commendable business in the large Majestic Theater in the Windy
"Harlem" belongs in the class of "Harlem" attractions has been their approach of attraction has been coarseness that was on the borderline of indulgence. It was of the "Diamond Land" genotype. When it reached Chicago it was so bad that the detective "Diamond Lil" look clean which was not merely exaggeration, but intrust. The characters that were coarser than "Harlem" were one of these, "Frankie and Johnie" was closed by the Chicago police who supervised the run of "Diamond Lil". Soon after the demolition of the two buildings, the wind off, the protecting arm was reached out after "Harlem", and the producer was informed that "the whole commissioner reported that he be carried numerous people, the project expired of some of its time and the dancing was permitted to continue, but the dirty work has been done, and it is now preparatory."
It is interesting to note that he complied against "Harvard" and the show in any great number, did plenty of protesting because he was a liberal, and reflected upon the Negro. One of the principal persons who to be heard was the activist and by these attacks, was the affable Chapile Garden, who, a part in the publicity representatives. Chapile is an empowerment out to take the best seats, but they withhold themsebs and write mean words. He was birthed from New York that he didn't care, that Negro could be a slave.
an opportunity for the directors of the Fast-Finding Committee to organize a study of political organization in New York, with the Negro and be extended to include the effect of such organization before coming to the conference. Before coming to the conference, Dr. DuBois had sought to obtain information to political organizations in number of cities—New York, Buffalo, Philadelphia, and Richmond, Va. New York and Chicago were held up as cities in which the Negro had the power to organize political organization. In both cities, it was pointed out, Negro cities hold offices, workhours, and share in the underworld profits that come to them. The Negro community notes a growing tendency on the part of the American people to make a difference that the jobs they get attract Negroes and to the editor to explain the gro's alignment, especially in Chicago, with the anti-fractions in
Politics have everything to do with income and the peculiar thing going on in the United States today is that all classes of citizens are turning to awards of politics in order to earn a very good income. It is possible that a very sudden living through affiliation with the underworld. That's what's going on in Chicago, New York and all through the country.

"What colored people are getting out of politics in jobs. It has all the importance in the world. Here you go, two things: There are many money from politics through traffic in crime and making money through getting political jobs, and these two things are the main things that are back of the party organization. The party organization is interesting people and the party will take the vote out of the people vote. There is, of course a third thing. The third thing is that through political manipulation and organization you are having the business of the country carried on. Business day is tremendously interested with politics. We could talk about politics in one category and business in another, is past. People have forgotten it, except the president of the United States and members of congress for many years.

COLORED AUTHOR
MOVIE DIRECTOR
AT PATHE STUDIO
William Foster is out in Los Angeles as an honest-to-god assistant manager. Many of Foster's Chicago friends are unable to be able that this determined man was realized a little on dreary until he was waved for many, many years. Foster has had a long and interesting background during the days when he was with Peter Jackson in England and later when he was sighted in the show boxes on Broadway. He came to Chicago, knew the Pekin players and colored motion pictures when he embanked for the Pekin players was one of the closest friends of Flourie Miller. Foster now carries a diamond-shaped bill, as he is known by most of the picture books and of the picture books. For some years he wrote sports for the Illustrated Jill Doones. He left the Decipher and started a daily paper of York, Gene's health book for him the paper filled. But Foster did not stop trying. He filled to make picture wanted to see them on the screen. He only knows how he got it.
He himself tells of his efforts to get on the movie lots. Time and time again he went with his story. Most of the times he could not get in. At other times he got in only to be sent out. Sometimes he was played with at others, ridiculed. It was not until he ran into a Mr. Powell, vice-president of Pathe, through the influence of the colored doorman at Pathe's that he struck a chord of interest. Now I was willing to talk to Eustace. He came from Virginia and he had a way of understanding that Foster might have an idea. Foster's stories were read and revealed. Conversations were held with lawyers and finally Foster was sent for to go to work. He could scarcely believe it himself. Nor could he Negross whom he was to direct. When he gave them orders they looked at the white men to see if they should do what the Negro director was telling them to do. Powell struck behind Foster, in spite of criticism from blacks and whites, and now Foster is well in the game. He stuck, and he won.

Are they going to be part of the Thompson machine and that machine is running Chicago, and when you do you won't get anything essentially different. What does groes? It says you should be adhanced to stand in with this combination known as the Thompson machine, and the Negro do not say, but they jobs is there any other way to get jobs in the city of Chicago? You cannot do that only way these jobs were distributed through machine politics. You cannot conceive of Chicago to choose between Dever and Thompson. You cannot conceive of Chicago to choose between Dever and Thompson. You cannot conceive of Chicago to choose between Dever and Thompson. Why don't they do something? They don't do anything because the politician's public party is bound up with business, and they don't want to disturb the public party is bound up with business, and they don't want to disturb the public party is bound up with business, where is it going to stop?"
Information obtained from Buffalo is not significant, but that from the two larger cities such important information ought we get out of this?" and then proceed to answer his own question.
"In the first place we should make it perfectly clear as to what political parties like the American Negro. Should investigate and tell the truth. Should light on the political life of the United States. I do not know anything about it, but I do know that he deserted, then you could begin reorganizing. I should get a few people in a 12,200 job there is no reason why a political organization should not keep people in better health than they are in the political. It could be done. It is simply a matter of application. It should not be white or that kind of thing can be done. The only way political parties can be successful is in great corporations or rich men. That is done and puts the power of the Democratic Party in the hands of these men." The course, it can say, from the defense anticipates a political leadership men. Now the larger political parties can exercise a decisive influence upon the way that the Negro can be a way to get employment, as has been largely the case in the northern cities during last few years.

The quarterly issue always brings its problem. No set method can be prescribed. The grade the aptitude teacher assigns is not the teacher are determining factors of the problem. For seniors and adults, two teachers are determining factors of the problem.
1. Character Study of the Kings and Prophets of the Period.

Lesson for April 14.
In lending the people back to the laziness prochase time a management team must be able to ensure the nation's deliverance through the shedding of the blood of a sacrificial lamb, the blood of a slave, and the blood of a warrior for a mining and divided people to get back to God and be united in a common cause.
Lesson for April 21.
Isaiah sought to comfort the peopie by assuring them that the Lord reign over the earth, and deliver them from bondage, and shepherd them to the world. The world is the coming of Jesus Christ and the establishment of His kingdom.
Lesson for April 28.
Salvation of God's people was to be accomplished through the suffering of their Messiah. At Christ's first coming, Jesus suffered in His suffering resulted in a spiritual progeny. Life out of death is the law governing the universe—nature's law. While the temple was in process of renovation, the law of God was found. Jesus' Word has power to give great disturbance to his mind as he realized the enormity of the nation's sins. God's Word has power to conquer a revival. Lesson for May 12. Lesson for May 12. God called Jerusalem before he was worn, overcame his tinnitus, and then to him warn his people of coming to Jerusalem and persecuted. God delivered him. Lesson for May 19. Jerusalem called the people to obey Jesus. The only way to avert God's judgment is to return unto Him and render obedience. Lesson for May 26. Jerusalem called to Palestine tregel will return and possess the earth. Jesus Christ will then come and enter into a new covenant, writing the law of God in their hearts.

FIRST IN INFLUENCE—PAGE SEVEN
The Hypocrite
By WILLIAM PICKENS (For The Associated Negro Press)
The master of one of the biggest white Baptist churches in the state of Oklahoma, located in Oklahoma City, came over one afternoon to speak to the colored brothers and sisters in the Lord at a colored church. And as one of the black sisters said, "He certainly talked like a child of God." The church he had called "My colored brothers and sisters, we are all one in the Lord; there is but one God and one heaven for all. God is no respecter of persons. Of one blood has he created all nations for to dwell upon the face of the great ch�els of the great clans; the great clans are the most ferment; parts of his vineyard or performing different tasks in it, but we are all working toward one happy consummation. There will be no lack of harmony and understanding in heaven. Some day we shall all see Him as His is, and shall see each other as we are.
I believe, and all real Christians believe, that the same justice should be done to colored as to white. Some day we shall be esteemed according to our character and our deeds. Your love is never a good one, and you will mine. What is good for you is good for me. This is our common country. The Lord is our big brother. We are one in Christ. Christian fellowship knows no color-line!—He had done. "Amen! hallelujah!" shouted some of the classic colored sisters. "That's the poetic truth," testified the color-led brethren.
Now the scene shifts. Night has come. The great white sayer of the day had come to his home, bringing his white congregation. His serene phone was branched out. And like many other white people, he evidenced other white and up-to-date appliances and ideas. It evidently did not occur to him that maybe colored people—his sister, his mother, his radio, as well as white people, his phone, his thought only white. But meanwhile the colored brethren and sisters who had been so deified in the past would have been white in his gospel dispensation. They knew that his evening discourses were meant to go heaven but they would all have to wait until they got to heaven before they could sit in his church. Many of these happy colored Christians were at home busy timing in their own
“Well, I went over this afternoon and talked to the niggers. And I want to say to you wealthy white people, you had better hire your own poorer class of white people to work for you instead of the niggers. These niggers are better off than your own poor whites. The nigger women sitting before me this afternoon were dressed better than some of you white society women. They showed every evidence of prosperity and can look after their own needs. The men had cars, fine cars, not Fords. You had better look after the needs of your own white race and put poor whites into those jobs, instead of helping the niggers to buy fine dresses and expensive automobiles. A man's first duty is to his own, etc., etc.”
Thus did this hypocrite offer the Negroes an imaginary heaven in the afternoon, but at night he consigned them to a real, actual economic hell. He administered opium when their eyes and ears were upon him, but sought to slip poison into their food when they were out of sight and presumably out of hearing.
And this is one of the reasons why so many colored people are losing their white man's pride. Many black people believe that the white man has a rich life in bound society. Soft words about the "sweet by and-by," in the words when compared with the deadly attack which this hypocrite was making on the economic life of colored people, and saying to the honest man, he would have done more good by saying to the white people, and saying to the colored people, what he said to the white people said: "The colored people are our brethren in religion and and would be very kind to opportunity and justice." To the blacks he could have said. Do not worry too much about yourselves. It may be better some day, but security in the present demands eternal vigilance and everlasting
His "hallah-alaqu" stuff would have been better for the white people, and he would have been better for the colored people more good. As it was, he tried to hull the colored people to sleep while he aroused the white people, and he slaughter—economic murder. He who invented the radio receiver has made it possible for the people, as well as God, to check up on these wolves in sheep's clothing. Salah

By Gustavus Adolphus Steward (For the Associated Negro Press)
In the English language there is no adjective of sufficiently diminutive import to apply to what has for centuries been the major outdoor sport. The tyrannical pastime, with all its revolting details of burning victims alive, ripping unborn babies from the womb of pictured mothers, using corrosive tears to roast human flesh from writhing bodies, rams far above the ground, and killing everything. Nothing in all history like this pastime, now happily on the wane, has ever been so successful. America, land of hundred percent in any fervor to which it may magnitatively succumb, could possibly have succeeded. White, in his latest book "Rope and Kneep," in acquiring acumen, recovered this charming procedure and set it before the world as it is. He has done this truly, and the book stands as an unremarkable indictment of that freedom of which Americans to proudly and so kindly
Amply supported by documentary findings, the book is a history of the lynching habit. Its origin is primarily emotional, but it also the overworked force of the Negro as a brute, as an economic political and social superior. Its citizens are almost anything—from "nuns" to "white people" to white women—oographical extent in the limits of the United States, and its lynching being confined to the South. Its enormous damage is inimitable to murderers. On the occasion of a lynching, the brutalizing of the human instincts of those who participate in these murderers. On the occasion of a lynching, the chong labor from the South with compartmentalization and culturally the lynch lose herself in a narrow-minded and inhumane prejudice. Such prejudice suffers when America is portrayed as a land of lynch law and members of the world audience.
It is a good service Mr. White done to be at such pains to puncture once more the myth that sex crises in themselves are so important in the realm of punishable offense, but that the particularly vicious tenacity with which the public generally bides to this theory needs rude and persistent hammering. Only so can men be made to see the relative unimportance this particular category of crime plays in lynching, the falsity of its implications for the Negro, and the amaming hypocrisy with which it is advanced by lynchers, actual and potential.
Similarly it is refreshing to see a large part of the responsibility has lynching placed exactly where he has been. And he has been to have any institution which sets itself up to be the guardian of the morals of a given community should be accountable for all that community's general interests. He has a general concesive of itself as moral leader, and Mr. White is case against it, as though unsparingly stated, which has been made even the strength of the ever-living all the years of Judge Lynch's lifetime to make any appreciable collective effort to bring a half-way that monster's bloody case from the White's time to the first of the first criticism what he calls "less emotional denominations," which seem to include Roman Catholics, Congregations and Christian by-bازians and Unitaons. But has anyone ever heard of these less emotional denominations organizing specifically against the evil and fighting defensively for the whole of the world. He has been published a letter definitely denouncing it or even denouncing excommunication of a Catholic mobist? Has the Episcopal house of bishops ever been more than the highest governing bodies of the others been more concerned than to pass resolutions on the state of the church and nation? Mr. White is responsible for the help he has in the responsibility of the Christian church for mob-law against Negroes is not much less than its responsibility for slavery, for all the great religions are the same. Christ in the same way is one to draw a color line and thus set up an elaborate array of invisions distinctions which assure the white Christian of his immense superiority and is a common result of the old-old responsibility of NOT doing anything about it.
The appendix of the book, with its array of tables and running comments, is of exceeding value to the sociological student, criminal specialists, and to others specifically interested. The author has shown good sense in removing these data from the body of his book where such facts are being found. In many of the reader and deadmen the interest of the study. Less valuable perhaps to the student and lay reader is the chapter dealing with theories of racial inferiority based on brain weights and intelligence tests, because the brain-weight theories have long since exploded and the intelligence tests have been too limited to be other than inconclusive.
Hope and Faggot is a welcome addition to accumulating studies of American's race and life. He took upon a question on which most people refuse to think straight written not from the heated viewpoint of the Southerner who is too close to it and too much of it to see if objectively, nor yet from the frigid viewpoint of the Northerner, too far away and too remotely concerned to see it other than academically. Mr. White, though, in it and very much of it—he has investigated numerous lychning, pointically—has the theory, achieved an objectivity approaching the judicial-minded. His book profits thereby. Its dispassionate picture of Judge Lynch should spur public opinion to unflagging determination to end his hideous control.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JUNE 29, 1929
HOUSTON SPECIES "SOCIAL EQUALITY"
Our local white publications are ranting, snorting and chanting at the local church of Howe树 tea party, attended by Mr. Owen DePriest, spouse of the Illinois colored congressman, we wish to cite their attention to a local incident which has just as much, if not more, of the so-called "social equality" complex than the recent White House incident.
During the recent Juneteenth celebration at Emancipation Park (and this practice has been in vogue for the past several years), not only did several members of the "superior race" go to the barbecue table and eat beside Negroes, but these local Nordics even pushed Negroes away from the table, devoured all the meat they ate, and married away over 100 pounds of barbecue according to some of the colored eye-witnesses.
Yet some white people are always contending that Negroes are seeking and desiring the intermingling of races, and we have never heard of Negroes attending a white celebration and carrying on in this manner.
In fact, instances are few and far between in North Negroes attempt to force their presence upon white people, yet Negroes can not stage any kind of event unless there are many whites present, some invited, but most of them uninvited; and they will eat and feast with Negroes at such occasions and think nothing of it.
Already, can't it funny how white Southerners will protest meat and denounce what they term "social equality" and yet will eat in the same dinner or sleep in the same Pullman with Negroes after crossing the far-famed Mason and Dixon line?
But, as in the case of the Juneteenth barbecue and celebration at Emanipation park every June 19, scores of whites will even eat with Negroes right in the South, and never give the "social equality" aspect of the intermingling one moment's thought or consideration!
However, it is to be deplored that these local "social equality" whites stick to the Juneteenth barbecue and picnic in such large numbers annually, and eat and carry away so much of the barbecued meats that many Negroes do not get as much as a sandwich.
Instead of directing their journalistic shots at the White House, deprecating so-called "social equality" between the two races in Washington and other distant points, and predicting racial clashes and resultant bloodshed, we wonder why these Houston publications and trate Nordics do not center their fire upon game at the range of the Negroes, making it possible for Negroes in day barbecues without being pushed away from the table by greedy and hungry whites who are so quick to forget the "color line" when delicious barbecued meat is the main feature on the bill of fare.
When it comes to certain phases of this Dixie "social equality" buncombe, what some of our white neighbors do along this and other lines speaks in such thunderous tones that we can not hear their protestations, denunciations, invectives and excorrations.
MORE ABOUT MRS. BROWN'S ARREST
Despite the fact that the case against Mrs. R. V. Brown, local female news vendor of color, was dismissed last week in corporation court, The Informer considers the incident grave enough to warrant additional editorial discussion; not with a view of agitating the matter, but to correct some views apparently held by some Houston's white police officers township, colored officers when her case was called Tuesday of last week, one of the arresting officers appeared as a witness against her and informed the judge that the race woman "was selling a paper barred from Houston during the World War."
In this connection, the officer was grossly mistaken, for no Negro newspaper was barred from circulation in this city during late war; and, as a matter of fact, neither the department nor the city had any jurisdiction from local circulation, either during martial or peaceful times, as long as the federal government permits said publication to employ the United States mail for distribution and circulation.
Of course, we realize that certain despotic city officials and police officers can frighten some Negroes and demand that they read certain race papers (as was done in several Texas and Southern communities immediately after the war) this is American history and such high-handed, autocratic and caricatistic methods will not work in this country, not even in the heightened corners of "Bam."
Aprepos of Mrs. Brown's arrest for alleged "selling Negro newspapers to white people on Main Street," it appears that many of our people here are in gross ignorance of their rights, or they are such beauty cowards that they consider themselves Negro on Main downtown street; for it has been told to The Informer that some of our spineless and pussy-faced bipeds of color have been heard to remark that this colored woman "had no business on Main Street," and such tommytrot. Why. Main Street belongs to all citizens of Houston, and a Negro, even a Negro woman, has as much right to sell race newspapers on Main Street or any other street as white people or any

newspapers and other wares to Negroes; and his never heard of any of them being arrested in these black districts and being commanded to get back in the white section of the city where they belong and stop selling their goods to Negroes.
If Mrs. Brown had been a member of the white race, she would not have been arrested in the first place; and, if (as a white woman) some police officer had so forgotten his prerogatives as to place her under arrest and carry her to city prison in the police patrol, he not only would have been reprimanded severely for his actions, but he would have been unguarded, while every white newspaper in the city would have carried flaming editorials denouncing such despotic actions upon the part of said officers.
There is a fundamental right at stake in this incident, and to pass the matter off merely with the dropping of the case against Mrs. Brown is not sufficient.
What had Mrs. Brown done in the first place to necessitate or warrant her arrest and humiliation by being placed in the police patrol and carried to the city bastile and forced to post a $25 cash appearance bond?
If she were born?

If she were accused of "disturbing peace" because the arresting office averred that she did not obey his "move on" order, why was she not arrested at Main and Lamar, where she was accepted by the officer, instead of Travis and Prairie, fully eight blocks from the scene?
Are white news vendors compelled to "move on," or are they not permitted to sell their papers on street corners and all over the city?
The Informer would like to know why Mrs. Brown was arrested at local police officers, and why she was even necessary to go through the area of having a trial, when the authorities superintendent of police and judge of corporation court knew that they had no real charges against this lawful, peaceful, hardworking, honest and Christian woman—who has supported herself and educated a son by selling papers on the local streets for the past 12 years?
Even police officers need to be informed that Negroes have some rights which even policemen are supposed to respect; and, despite the fact that police officers can apprehend more than 100 Negroes whenever some criminal charge is "trumped up" and charged at the door of the black contingent, the Informer still contends that the arrest and consequent embarrassment and humiliation local wives have received is illegal, and those responsible for the "stunt" proved themselves unworthy custodians of the public weal and welfare, and poor protectors of the peace and legal rights of American citizens.
WHAT ABOUT LOCAL RAPE CASES?
Although two local white women charged, several days ago, that they were the victims of criminal attacks by Negroes; and, notwithstanding the fact that more than 100 blacks were arrested on suspicion, with many of them being given the "third degree" in an attempt to force a confession, not only are the "black newspapers about the" attacks in nearly two weeks.
Many rumors have been affoort here recently concerning both of these reported criminal attacks, and the fact that no more arrests have been made and the constabulary and police departments have soft pedaled the matter, might lead one to conclude that there is something funny and fishy about the whole affair.
With wholesale arrests of Negroes in Houston and the apprehension of several Negroes in adjacent towns, most of them fitting the description given by the victims, according to daily newspapers, the women "outraged" have failed thus far to identify a share of the attackers before the police report current in the city is that bloodhounds were placed on the trail in one of the "attack" cases, and that the dogs continued to follow the scent to a nearby house occupied by whites.
Not satisfied with the queer and peculiar antics and actions of these dogs, rumor has it that additional bloodhounds were pressed into service and these repeated the action of the first dogs.
During last year a criminal attack upon a young white girl by a "black, burly Negro" was reported in a nearby town, and all this section became excited and alarmed, resulting in several Negroes being arrested on suspicion.
Finally bloodhounds were put on the trail, according to the report, which disturbed the "burly, black brute," but on the other hand tracked a member of the white race, resulting in the case being dropped like a hot brick.
Of course, whenever they "attack cases" take such turns, the white daily newspapers forget to mention the matter, preferring to leave the public under the impression that not only did some "black beast" perpetrate the heinous crime, but also made good his escape. If the two local white women were attacked by Negroes, then the police officers should not rest until the culprits are apprehended and brought to justice; but on the other hand, if these white women were not attacked by Negroes, or were not the victims of criminal outrages at all, then this fact should be broadcast in the same manner as the publicity given the alleged attacks when originally reported.
It does not seem credible or feasible that these alleged "black assailants" could perpetrate their brutal crimes and then escape the dragnet engineered by the police officers, who seem to possess the knowledge of the Negro criminals under any and all circumstances and conditions!
If as one white editor of a local daily stated in his column several days ago, the Negro race of Houston "has been disgraced by the ghouls of your color who committed these acts" (mind you, this Nordic editor did not say "the Negroes accused of committing the acts," but assumed the attitude that some Negroes did the bestial deeds simply because some member of the white race charged the black man with the act of assaulting until the "fired" is caught and tried, or an explanation made why the cases have taken such strange twists and peculiar angles.
THIRTY YEARS IN SERVICE
In 1899 the Free and Accepted Masons of Texas cast about for some able young man to fill the office of most worshipful grand secretary of the Lone Star State jurisdiction, and their choice fell upon William Madison McDonald, who was then residing in Kauffman County. At that time Mr. McDonald had not attained national fame as a political luminary, outstanding business man and leader, but the Masons of Texas saw in him the sterling qualities of leadership and they elected him as their grand lodge scribe. Last Thursday the Masonic grand lodge of Texas celebrated the thirtieth anniversary of the Masonic organization as grand secretary of the order, and the feature of the day's program was the celebration of the occasion and paces about this outstanding leader and distinguished fragrantist, who is often referred to as "Texas' first colored citizen." Not only did members of the Masonic order and Texas speakers lead and praise Mr. McDonald's services for the past thirty years.
OPINIONS
With all plans and details about worked out for the forthcoming fiftieth (silver jubilee) anniversary celebration of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows and Household of Ruth of Texas, which will be staged in Galveston August 5-9, 1929, the eyes of Texas and the nation will be focused upon Treasure Isle during this mammoth event.
When the Household of Ruth in the state will not be 50 years of age this year, the sisters are joining hands with the brothers to put on an exhibition and demonstration which the Island City and Texas will never forget, and one which will be in keeping with the glorious past of the order and its bright prospects for the future.
This memorable event will be held in connection with the grand lodge, and it is expected that thousands will invade Galveston during the week to view the epoque spectacle.
Another feature which will draw many members of the order to the grand session is the bicennial election of grand lodge officers. While we have not heard of any hats being in the ring for any of the grand lodge plums, it will not be surprising to discover some ambitious aspirants in Galveston either seeking some office, or hoping that "Lightning will strike them."
During a recent visit to the city, Prof. G. W. Jackson of Corsicana, district grand master of the Texas, New Mexico and Arizona jurisdiction, states that not only a record-making, but a record-breaking meeting is in the offing for Galveston during August; and that the "Odd Fellows and Ruthites will kill the fatten calf and stage one mighty fine celebration. We are going to let the world know that the Odd Fellows of Texas can do big things and do them in a big way."
Mrs. L. M. Hughes of Cameron, who recently became titular head of the Household of Ruth through the death of Mrs. Julia Caldwell-Frazier, was in Houston a few days ago, and declared that "the Ruthites are going to stand by and with the Odd Fellows in the consummation and execution of the silver jubilee anniversary in Galveston during the grand sessions in August, and, while we do not care to divulge our plans just now, our suggestion is that you meet us in the Island City and with your own eyes the demonstration which will be staged for your enlightenment and edification."
Another fraternal stalwart who is busy getting things in fine fettle for the grand lodge is Hon. James T. Ewing of Houston, district grand secretary and temple manager. Although the recent high water in Houston did much material damage to the basement of the Odd Fellows Temple, Mr. Ewing not only is directing the repair work in the building, but he is handling numerous details dealing with the grand session during August.
Both Grand Master Jackson and Grand Secretary Ewing will be candidates for reelection. In fact, it is rumored in reliable circles that the entire grand lodge family will be retained in office for another two years. ' (The Odd Fellows and Ruthites only elect officers every two years, and while the former will hold an election this year the latter will not elect officers until the 1930 session.)
According to reports emanating from Galveston, the 1929 hostcity, the various local committees have things well in hand there, and are eagerly looking forward to the grand session and the silver jubilee celebration. There promises to be something doing from the moment the first delegates reach the Island City until the last one has departed for home.
The railroads of Texas will grant reduced round trip rates for this occasion, and persons from the interior of the state and other distant or near-distant points—in fact, all persons connected with the grand lodge and grand house—are urgently requested and advised to employ the passenger trains and to use the lines designated by the head of the order. This will assure better accommodations for all concerned, and will make a far better showing for the fraternity.
During the fifty years of its existence in Texas, the Odd Fellows order has risen from a mere infant in the fraternal world to a giant among secret fraternities, with assets and resources above the half-million dollar mark.
Always regarded and rated as a conservative fraternal organization, this order has kept pace with the marvelous growth recorded by similar race institutions in Texas during the past decade or more; and it faces the future with high hopes and a most enthusiastic spirit, holding tenaciously to the fundamental tenets of the order—Friendship, Love and Truth.
but Colonel Roscoe Conkling Simmons, noted orator and publicist of Chicago, was brought to the state to deliver the principal address at Thursday night's testimonial event.
On this occasion Mr. Simmons paid Mr. McDonald a mighty fine tribute, in detail and at length the various contributions made by this illustrious Texas both to the order, race, state and social fabric; adding that "no history of America is complete without Texas, and no history of Texas is complete without McDonald, who is known wherever Texas is known."
Not only were flowery tributes paid this Texas notable, but many and profuse were the floral bouquets presented to him upon the occasion; and, while taken by surprise (for he knew nothing of the program until it was being rendered), Mr. McDonald was visibly affected by the demonstration.
Whenever a black man can serve in one capacity for thirty years among black people and survive, he is a genius and deserves the concomitants of his fellowmen; and when that thirty-year period is filled with unselfish service, the accomplishment is all the more remarkable and unique.
While not the titular head of the Texas Masonry, Mr. McDonald has served under several most worshipful grand masters, and due largely to his efforts, visions and contributions the order has attained its present high rank and rating in this state and the nation. Having played such an important part in the history, growth and expansion of the order in Texas, it is beffiting and appropriate that the grand lodge should pause in its deliberations and accord honor to this comment fraternalist and distinguished leader.

By Wilton Pember
F you take a world-map and study it carefully you will find that about one hundred miles to the north of Cape York, Northern Queensland, lies the island of New Guinea, probably the largest island in the world. Originally owned by fierce headhunting cannibals. Many still rove through the interior, but it is now ruled over by the Dutch and the British, who divide the island equally between them. The northeastern part was originally German New Guinea, but at the beginning of the Great War, was taken by the Australian forces and is now the Mandated Territory.
The southeastern part of the island, originally called British New Guinea, is what I am about to tell you of in this chapter. The name was altered to Papua, which means fuzzy-headed, some years ago in order to avoid confusion with the northeastern part. It is about 90,000 square miles in extent, and has a population of about 250,000 natives.
"Rzor-Back"
The country is rough and rugged, much of it being known as "razorback" formation. Some of the mountains are very high, their peaks rising some 13,000 feet, which have perpetual snow upon them, though they
THE HOUSTON INFORMER
ILLUSTRATED FEATURE SECTION June 29, 1929
are quite close to the equator. These mountains in general are stern and savage-looking. The sides are so steep that no soil is found on them. Only "the bare rock glowers in the sun." In the valleys the vegetation is luxurious and varied: wonderfully colored crottons and coleus, large and corn vines, and beautiful lilies flourish in rich profusion. Georgeous butterflies flit about, and the beautiful Bird of Paradise adds its luster to the scene. Papua is a land of great rivers; the Fly River is one of the largest in the world, and is navigable for about five hundred miles, and it has been seen that the river has sometimes down that river to provide everybody on this earth with one hundred and twenty gallons each day."
Queer Life
The people live in small villages. About fifteen to twenty houses generally form a village, and as very little order is preserved, the houses are built without any idea of town-planning. Sometimes they are built on the beach, on the beach or even out above the sea. All the houses are built upon high piles as a protection against white ants, rats, and other vermin, which are numerous. These village houses are often covered with decorations and carved figures, some of which are decorated with carvings. It is a rude form of art, still it shows a striving for beautiful things inherent in all people.
Eat Bees and Ants
Their main food is the yam (somewhat like a potato), bread-fruit, taro (which is the root of a lily), bananas, sugarcane, pineapple and nuts. Sometimes they have pig, or fish, or owl, and with every prepared food the coconut. They are not over-particular, for they often eat frogs, lizards, snakes, liv. bees, ants, stingaree (stinging fish), opossum, and even rats. Their clothing consists of very light clothing, and girls are worn by the womencook, who are quite as keen on fashion as our people, while boys and girls

Primalite Custums
The Papuans still cling to their customs, rites and rituals, many of which are both strange and unique. The chief of them relate to birth, marriage, death and harvest. When a child is born the mother is the recipient of numerous presents, often with gifts from her youngest volunteer; while when the baby is but a few hours old it is taken to the sea and bathed in the waves. Then comes the next process, for a few days later same black resinous mixture, much like glue, is rubbed on its head to harden the skull. The next process is to pierce holes in the skin, to sew in some cases the mose, into which are thrust spiropits of wood or grass. These holes are made bigger as the child grows older, until it reaches a stage when a large plug of wood can be thrust into the stretched lobes. One never sees a birthday feast or celebration as unlucky events, they are forbidden all about.
Modification
At the death of a relative the natives paint themselves with a mixture of charcoal and coconut oil, and this must not be washed off for a month or so. but must be renewed should it wear off before that time. Then again, if the relative is a near one a joint is taken off a finger as a remembrance of the death. Like most other islanders they tattoo themselves, and this is done youth with a thorn or other sharp point, which has been dipped into a strong blue dye, made from certain wild berries.
"Ketps"
Even from quite an early age the hair of the Papuan gets quite a lot of attention, for children are taught by their parents to comb their hair with long wooden brace-maid comb. Comb the fuzzy map becomes as good as a pocket, and is more often than not the receptacle of a string accessory.
ment of bits of string, fish-hooks, pieces of coconut, and in fact, anything and everything that appeals to them as "keeps." You must be misunderstood by readers that the Papawans are dissipated or derelict people. If one lives with these natives for any length of time one will find them a happy, virile race, and if treated properly, will respond in a beneficial to themselves and the world. You must be remembered that all races have a place in the world. The highly civilized races should help those not so blessed to realize the highest within them without imposing their civilization upon people with disastrous results, as is frequently the case.
Pappans Educated
Much is being done for the Papuan of late years, by the federal government of Australia. The natives are being educated and looked after from a welfare standpoint, in quite an admirable way by the Australian authorities. The children, in most cases, are not only eager, but quick to learn, and the white teachers are high in their praise for their general advancement, both from an education, and civilized standpoint this, of course, is a very tedious territory, which, as has already been stated, has been under Australian administration since the opening of the Great War.
New Hebrides Situation
As for the various groups of islands that stud the Pacific, there is an ever-increasing attention being paid by the authorities to education. But the New Hebrides Condominium, unique in many things, is unique also in this, that alone among South Sea Island Governments it does nothing for the promotion of education. The teaching and training of the natives are left entirely to the missionaries.
The question of education in the islands is complex and beet with difficulties. Children whose parents are emerging from the Stone Age cannot be taught on quite the same lines as

boys and girls who are the product of a highly-developed civilization. The islander by nature is a tiller of the soil, and does not take kindly to cultivate the land or culture. The trades and industries of the islands are largely in the hands of Europeans and Japanese, and are likely to remain there. The whole future of the native is bound with the use he makes of his land.
Witeberaft
In bygone days the prevalence of witchcraft debarred any possibility of progress, and made a native content with his dugout canoe, his ancient implements, and backward conditions. His ideas in agriculture are not as well known as the most part the natives of today fill the soil in the same fashion as their forefathers did in Captain Cook's day, merely scratching the surface with their old-fashioned hoes. Under such conditions, education of an island child can never be complete until he is taught to farm his own land and become an able and intelligent cultivator. Only within recent years have the benefits of education been understood and appreciated by the natives. In the early days of missionary enterprise schools were regarded as an unaccountable whim of the mission- (Continued on page four)

aries, and the scholars attended with the idea that they were conferring a favor upon them, abundance at school though only for an hour or two daily was regarded by the dark-skinned pupils as a service for which they were entitled to payment. Periodically, they demanded their wages and sometimes the children of a districter would "strike" if they thought their wages were overdue.
Certainly, the little islanders were not difficult to appear, and the more promising and inquisitious were rewarded with called Amenants, the hooks, pocket knives, and such trinkets. The raw savage could see no meaning or purpose in school, and with a continuous posture, asked why teachers should show a preference for children rather than muscular and sagacious men. The riddle was solved in a dramatic and conclusive way.
A Dramatic Incident
During the present of the Sama Mission Station, Mr. Small is of Epi in need of a tool, naked Agok, his native assistant, to go to the carpenter at the other end of the compound and get it. The nature, a raw lickman from the wilds of Lull, could not grasp what was wanted. Picking up a short neece of lining board, Mr. Small resembled a message with blue print, and the name of it to Apok did not take it to the carpenter. Amand at such a request, the bash-eglyphis scattered, largely digged by over the board and then at Mr. Small, as if to say, what mad caper is this? The native scratched his woolly head and did what he never before attempted—he tried to reason for a door had been opened through which the old light streamed into the dark recesses of his vacant and primitive mind. Round the campfire that evening Apok was the chief one for, and as a result of his first lesson in deductive reasoning he drove home upon his fellow-islanders the inevitable conclusion that the school was not such a mad venture after all.
Education: Areepie!
A plume of the river-healing significance of education has at last dawned upon the native mind. The power of the printed book and written letter is no longer questioned, and the secret of wealth and great

When only a boy, the house in which he and his father were asleep was invaded, during a vendetta feud, by the chief of the opposers of the war, and Jimmy was swirked in the morning to find himself an orphan. As he said few Ir.mils, a German tracer took a fancy to the attractive lad and, adopting him as his son, gave him the family surname Jimmy. Grave. His accepted father was the last of the old style of South Sea traders who, in the wild and primitive islands of the New Hebrides was able to gratify his passion for adventure and hazard. Boy-like. Jimmy idealized the dare-devil feats of the sea rover, and, accompanying him on his cruises as first heustan, shared in his ventures and escapades.

When the tale turned and they began to see that school, instead of being a foolish and trivial fad was an institution maintained for their benefit, big brothers and bearded fathers, and even grandfathers began to yearn for the power of deciphering the printed page.

At the summons of the firm then the scholars, everyone with a bag of school books may be seen on the track, overorging on our school house. Even parents spare time to look in and bestow upon the school their patreagage, while fond mothers are also the children doing the strange exercises.
The experience gained by the schoolmaster while in the service of the two traders ensinently fis him for making instruction in agriculture a part of the school curriculum. Every day, at the close of morning school, the pupils accompany Jimmy to the plantation, where they are initiated into up-to-date methods of work. They have laid out several tracts of land for the cultivation of of cotton, an article of commerce.
