THE HOUSTON INFORMER Nurse Returns Belated Check COLORED CITIZENS RAISE NEAT SUM Nurse COLOR 5 PRICE CENTS THE MIRROR Furthermore, there is no charity card or every other black man, woman or child who goes to the Houston Nogel Hospital for men. It is not a certificate, regular weekly fees. This hospital is dedicated to the Nogel Hospital for men. Negroes should have the right to have a voice in its management and administration. If the white citizens of Houston object to a man or woman serving as a nurse, they matter not of their hospital unappreciated superintendent was, that objectionable superintendent would go, and Bright's disease slaughtering the Houston Nogel Hospital, they are labeled as unappreciated superintendent. The demand for the dismissal of the present superintendent is not coming to the Houston Nogel Hospital, practically every well-informed and upstanding Negro in Houston is joking that the removal of the present superintendent, and the community, helps to make possible the hospital's operation and maintenance, and these will aid and maintain the removal of both well and will in the matter respected, before somebody "faw down and go boom". There seems to be quite a bit of the Southern cities relative to Negroes in busses, particularly inter-city buses. In most of the Southern cities there can ride in them, with few exceptions; but very few bus lines operating between them, for colored passengers, and it happens frequently that Negroes are not乘车 for inter-city travel. A North Carolina court has held that busses are common carriers and that the accommodation for the two must be equal to a motor bus for inter-city travel. It seems to be a Dixie tradition that it seems to be anything new it is going to be, and the newness wears off and the novelty is gone, then the blacks can begin to Transportation buses are rather novel and novel, and seem seemed to be the only means of a older novelties and innovations in the South. There is no percent can deny that buses are common carriers, employing the roads and highways made possible by the railroads, and they have no more right to refuse to carry certain passengers than a railroad.

HOSPITAL SITE IN SAINT LOUIS BURNING ISSUE Saint Louis, Mo.—(ANP)—With $1,200,000 of bond issue money available since 1923 for a new City Hospital, which our citizens approved with their vote in a city election, there is also a determined effort on the part of some individuals to aid our enemies in defeating the project provided in the $87,000,000 bond issue program. While arguments over the site of the project continue from month to month, patients are turned away from the make-shift colored building of Lawton Boulevard, because of lack of constant fire hazard exists. A fireman is stationed at the hospital at all times. Obeys Master's Voice Despite the fact that the board of alchemists has designated a site at Hospital Poro College, and a condemination Poro College, and a condemination objection to carrying out the plan in made by Dr. Pred K.

A. Newby did not suffer because of the rude and cruel manner in which she was treated by the superintendent of the Houston Negro Hospital and certain members of the white advisory committee, the colored board met last Saturday and tendered the North Carolina nurse the check shown above. As the colored citizens had already raised sufficient funds to reimburse Miss Newby her railroad transportation and other expenses incident to making the fruitless jaunt to Houston, it was simply a case of the board "sleeping too late" and falling down on its hold duty, which (writing the check) this board should have done before the matter became so aggravated and brought to the hospital and city a type of unsavory and unwholesome publicity. The Informer, which launched this fight, considers this a dual victory, for not only did the citizens rally to the appeal and contribute freely of their means to assist this young woman, but the colored board also issued her a check after the hospital superintendent and at least two members of the white advisory committee had stated that Miss Newby not only did not deserve any consideration, but that she would not get one cent from the hospital treasury. If the colored board has the authority to override the superintendent and two members of the white advisory committee, who literally insulted and humiliated Miss Newby when she sought reimbursement, has not the same colored board the constitutional authority and power to employ and discharge hospital superintendents? The letter of Miss Newby, declining the belated proffered hospital check, follows: Houston, Texas. July 24, 1929. Mr. J. B.

When, alone and without friends, I made this appeal to the authorities of the Houston hospital, I was told that the authorities of the hospital had thrown me out, leaving me helpless, with no hope, except from charity, the citizens of Houston voluntarily came to my rescue, and raised the money to take care of my needs and to send me home.

The Evening Telegram, local Republican daily, comes out in a strong editorial address to the Hugh Hewlett, Elihon Merrill and other leaders of the party, asking that the Democrats record as declaring that there is willful trading and bartering between the Democrats for positions, the Republicans keeping the federal posts and the Democrats keeping the representation of any consequence the Democrats have in George U. Harper's Queens. In announcing a strong candidate for mayor at the coming elections, the Republicans have a difficult task because New York is a city of representation for Congressman Florio La Guardia, an Italian who is a constant opponent of the champion, but they are body and soul for ex-Mayor Daniel K. Brown called into the running on a fun ticket, but it is highly improbable that the regular Democrats refuse to accept La Guardia, who will run in the present incumbents in office John C. Hawkins, alderman from the Bronx, and Andrew alderman from the 19th District toounce their intention of running for the position. He has succeeded in his effort, but Hawkins has incurred the bitter enemy of a state senator who has turned to ignominious defeat. His enemies are holding up his 12-year term in the New York state assembly, six years as counsel for the (Continued on Page Five) FIRST SECTION—NUMBER 10 KLANSMEN'S CAMPAIGN TO REPEAL 15TH AMENDMEN IS LUDICROUS; TEXAS DENTIST HEADS MOVEMENT Practices 12 Years. National Benefit Physician Fails To Pays Thirtieth Pass Examination Annual Dividend Washington, D. C.—(ANP)—The announcement of Dr. Hiram W. Evans, the leading kluxer of all them, that the Ku Klux Klan will launch a campaign for the repeal of the 16th amendment to the constitution of the United States, has caused a ripple of amusement among political leaders of the country. This announcement, made simultaneous with the removal of the national headquarters from this city to Atlanta, Ga., includes the launching of a financial drive to collect funds to wage the battle. Dr. Evans may be going to a fertile field for the collection of funds, but his cohorts in Georgia and other Southern states have found a somewhat less expensive method of disfranchising the Negro in those parts. In spite of supreme court decisions the Negro is disfranchised, leaders point out, in the Southern states, through various subterfuges. Rigid tests when they apply for registration, discouragement by employers, and places are brought into play with the Negro is disfranchised and the repeal of the 16th amendment. Some opine that perhaps Dr. Evans foresees the abolition of these evasions. Hickory, N. C.—(ANP)—Dr. P. M. Smith, one of the most prominent physicians here, failed to pass the state examination held here and was admitted for practice, according to an announcement made Tuesday by Dr. J. W. McConnell, secretary of the State Board of Medical Examination. Dr. Smith came here about 12 years ago and was admitted to the most unusual in the annals of the state. Dr. Smith came here about 12 years ago and received a temporary license. An investigation held some two years ago revealed that Dr. Smith had a large practice, had never taken the state examination and he was ordered to take the examination was held and Dr. Smith was among those who did not take the state examination. The stateian state that the whole affair had disturbed him and attributed it to the practice rather than to a lack of knowledge of medicine and the practice of medicine. STATE COLLEGE CLOSES SUMMER SCHOOL FRIDAY STATE COLLEGE CLOSES SUMMER SCHOOL FRIDAY Prairie View, Texas. — The summer school of Prairie View State Normal and Industrial College will close July 27, with 1500 students enrolled, the largest in the history of the college. The college offers a variety of science degree. The baccalaureate sermon was preached Sunday, July 27, at Rentville. The address to the graduates was delivered July 23, by President John W. Hatton, A and M. Cellen, Professors and instructors at the college are extraordinarily satisfied with the work of the summer faculty of the work of the summer session of the 1500 students attending it, it estimated that more than 75 per cent of the summer school is attributed to the efforts of Principal W. R. Banks of the summer school is attributed to the teaching staff of the college, professors and instructors from the lead college and universities of the FINAL ACTION—NUMBER 10 check SUM PAIGN TO REPEAL N IS LUDICROUS; HEADS MOVEMENT but many others feel that Dr. Evans foresees a depletion in the finances of his organization and is using this means of refilling the coffers of the organization of one hundred per cent Americans who thrive on racial and religious prejudice and who, while sworn to uphold the laws of the country, are now seeking to repeal one of the statutes upon which this country is founded. Dr. Evans timed his announcement in 1929 that he would be the Southern white man's ignorance, when he made the following statement: The DePriest Negroes and the fifteenth amendment, which he proposed for the fortieth incident at the White House, declared Evans, a member of his followers at Forestville, meeting of his followers at Forestville. "There exists today an absolute necessity for Americans to maintain their being foreigner, we must and will maintain the purity of the white race." The invitation extended to Mr. Dr. Priest, he explained to his audience, was one of "the those customary obligations that Mrs. Hoover could not well esteem." If these Negroes, said Dr. Evans, "had followed the involatile social etiquette without regard to the customs of the fuss raised would have been avoided. It has been the custom of the White House, and nothing else was said about it." Certainly the guests of any function could not assume the role that it desired, else nothing was said about it. Certainly the Negroes made over that has resulted in strained firing of the fifteenth amendment. National Benefit Pays Thirtieth Annual Dividend Washington, D. C.-S. W. Rutherford, secretary-general manager of the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, announced on Monday, July 16, 1929, that 1800 dividend checks would be made available to the home office to stockholders of record. This is the thirteenth annual uninterrupted dividend of National Benefit Life, asserts Mr. Rutherford and, in addition, a number of other business enterprise of the race. Last year, when National Benefit paid its annual dividend, announced its original investors in said company's original investors in both six and one-buff times, been repaid both six and one-buff times, stock upon which they collect annual dividends. In 1918 the corporation declared a 400% stock dividend, upon which, of course, it has regularly paid cash upon the stock originally purchased. The background of National Benefit Life is one of solidity, lapsed upon its 31 year old stock. Negro Loses Suit Against Railroad New Orleans, La.—(ANP)—Aaron A. B.

NEGRO WOMEN WILL EDUCATE AFRICAN YOUTH Indianapolis, ind. — **IND**—Inspired by the opportunity to “do something definite and concrete which will bless the heathen in Africa when we wear it,” the colored women headed by Mrs. Emily E-Verson has formed an unique organization, the Bautu-Nyalaaland Foundation and as their first task are sponsoring the education of a brilliant music band.

(ANP)—Marshall Rodgers, the celebritied comedian who has spent nearly a year at the deluxe Regal Theater since its opening February 15, has been a regular Sunday morning and found that the joke of the week was on him. Duly at 11 o'clock, Rodgers, known popularly as "Garbage," had prepared a comedy that would worldlines from the lips of the Rev. Harold Kingley, pastor of the Good of the World Church, the sermon and the offering the period of good fellowship arrived and the congregation was announced that the Chicago fumaker was in the congregation. They were over the good members of the flock crowd around "Garbage" to give him the glad hand of fellowship. One middle-aged woman drew a bit back and asked "How did you do that?" she was. "Ok, yes," replied the comedian the manner of those public idols who dare not deny an acquaintance. "Well, who am I?" persisted the woman. "Oh, I don't know your name, but I know your face all," the girl answered. "Well, you certainly ought to know me—you've been talking about me all the time." "Garbage" was much puzzled and the group crowded around began to "I am Mrs. Oscar DePriest," the man said, dressed after enclosing the candle in disguise for a few minutes. "I gave him a garbage bag," he gathered himself together. "Garbage had appeared in a minibus during the act, accompanied the showing of 'Heart Regal Theater during the week and during the set when his partner Karen Garbage had challenged his partner and warned him that if he did what he wanted, the garbage bag" would raise more disturbance than the white folks did over Mrs. DePriest. Vincennes Hotel Sale False Alarm Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—Unfounded rumors to the that Vincennes Hotel, which ranks as the oldest hotel in the United States, ordered people, had passed from the hands of its owner, Mrs. Elizabeth Barrett Lewis, were proven baseless today. "Not only do I still own the Vincennes Hotel," declared Mrs. Barrett Lewis, "and disposed of it. I have been busy trying to attract the traveling public. I cannot understand the pernicious attitude of people who circulate reports of the hotel's poor conditions and offers because the plans for the coming World's Fair indicate that we are not going to attract any activities. But I have not the slightest interest in Vincennes Hotel property cost Mrs. Lewis $200,000. She has owned the hotel, and 140 rooms with baths, 36 apartments, employs 32 workers, and ranks as one of the nation's most successful hotels."

His captivity took place in the third year of the reign of Chuzidzehazer, king of Babylon. While a tender youth, he was torn from homes and made a captive in a foreign land.

He requested that he be allowed to drink, which the law of the God allowed, agreeing to abide by the results. (1) Physical health (v. 15).

REFRIGERATION AS ESSENTIAL AS GOOD HOUSING "Proper refrigeration is just as essential as proper housing, and proper heating of your home in winter, and proper ventilation through the year. It is vital to health and life itself," says Dr. Royal S. Copeland, United States senator from New York, in the current Colleague.

On the other hand, from the system provides practically nothing in the towards the maintenance of our edifice and whiteouth of Oklahoma. The railroads do provide waiting rooms such as they are, with fire and water systems, and the county that they operate through. Of which taxes a percentage goes to the incipient and emblematic county that depended largely upon the taxes paid by railroads toward defragging a portion of their educational expenses. Now, we do not hold any brief for you, we are just interested in the cause in the cause in the cause in the maintenance of our self-respect and hence we see the futility of bus services in our community and relationship with us in unassimuch as it contrives nothing towards our education, so we need the intention of the intended, insisting manner of accepting (if they should happen to you).

The trouble grew out of the incident when Robinson Memorial Association when Robinson was not returned to office of treasurer, and could not survive without him. Robinson could not survive without him. Robinson met the meeting, hold June 26, at which time Miller defended Robinson for the association. Robinson declares that various members of the association have been fishing from funds to time. Time, at which time, Miller invited Mr. Robinson to the meeting. Once on the outside, Robinson is said to have whipped him out his treasurer's action has been taken against Robinson's life. At the present time, Robinson is in the midst of a make payable to the Florence Mill Memorial Association which amounts to two collections of benefit bonds held with Robinson's principal performer, Innsamach, an officer of the same association to erect a monument to the memory of Florence Robinson and Robinson wants to erect a monument to the memory of Florence Robinson caused the break. Robinson declares that innsamach has been instituted and should have some any as to how it should be to be a very narrow offence to the premier tap dance to take, report any. Robinson is a featured dance on the Keith circuit at a salary of $5,000 and causes professional jousting. A short time before the benefit was staged, turbulence took a long distance from the former in his company to do Mr. Robinson's dance because that in the future, he is not going to be heafed by performers he has helped in Harlem, but is going to mind his own business and go straight home where he be.

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, JULY 27, 1929 SNOWDALE FARM THRILLS CIMBEE; MISSES CHURCH By S. B. (Clinser) WILLIAMS Breakfast, N. Y.-You don't need to tell my pastor, but it seems as if I can't get to church as regularly as I did at home. Yet I am stopping in what is known as the City of Churches. Last Sunday morning a lay in bed and listened to the chimes and church bells as they forked forth. "What is it?" I asked of me I couldn't break away from the habit of trying to day into day in the habit of having formed in just a few short weeks. And speaking of weeks up here, seven nights make a week-not seven days, and firmly believe that I can get by much more quickly than at home. When I did finally get out of bed last Sunday, we, the Brooklyn portion of my family, piloted into Prey's Buck and were joined by the other wing of the Williams group, and journeyed to the farm. I say New England farm since it lies practically on the line of Connecticut. This farm, the Snowlake Farm, is owned by a Mr. Moran and his wife, who I learned by conversing with her, is a native of Alabama, and she is about 160 years old. She and her husband have lived on this lovely farm for 11 years and are by no means poor tillers of the soil. Snowlake Farm, like most farms "up state" and in New England, is in the valley and springs out from beneath the rocks, furnish a sight in the valley, and pulls himself with much rebuttance. Up to this and other farms, the wary, nerve-weaked citizens of the city of Brooklyn and Manhattan, he built a farm on the campus of the on this Sunday, we found dozens of business and professional men with their entire families enjoying the quietude and restfulness afforded by nets, aly assisted by the hands of Seeing these farms with all the convenience you can find in a modern urban home, one wonders why our farmers down home don't have running water in their barns; hot and cold water in the basement lights throughout the place. We can't change it to 'the fact that these are different colored people to ours, for invariably you will find that our most progressive people of our group Of course we had to make a trip down to Caney Island, but we took great pain to visit during the week, and thereby avoid the Sunday crush. Driving out Ocean Avenue from the beach, we found beautiful detached homes, surrounded by real Southern lawns. If one attempt to see all the different freaks, and visit every little museum, and partake of all the various and sunny forms of amusements offered at Caney, you could spend a solid six-hour day in the little bank account you could ruin. In my last letter, I forgot to mention the fact that we had driven through "San Juan Hill," a portion of Manhattan lying in 9th and 10th avenues between 621 and 641th streets. Skii was found murdered, and Sikii was known Hell's Kitchen, is inhabited by Irish and Negroes, and many relic the bloody battles fought between these groups in this section. We passed through at night, and I prayed that we could pass through at midnight. Hell's Kitchen is a most appropriate name. Visited another Texas couple since my last letter, Mr. and Mrs. Garrett, the latter was formerly Miss Pearl Garrity. The Garrity has an apartment at 200 7th Avenue, and you may be assured that they need never lack for thrill and excitement. The Garrity have a cheap article in New York.

Considerable political interest was raised in the Department to create four new departments; there was a deal of sentiment in favor of petitioning the United States Department to create four new departments by the late John Gainey. This would create three new promotions. The administration down and a resolution was passed asking that a Gainey be placed on the board of the department and hold both jobs. As an indication of the difficulty of the task in securing promotions to inspectors or chief clerks, the fact was cited that Mr. Gainey's success in assisting the group of assistant chief clerk and the group is without representation on the rela- among the prominent visitors and teachers of the school.

Many seem to think that in order to establish and maintain a successful business, all one has to do is to discover this so-called secret formula and at the Outset, we wish to state that in the laboratory of business, there is no such thing as a secret formula, but it is only one of success, if he should by chance stumble upon it. The formulaes underlying the successful conduct of business as it happens, the word are no longer secrets, but are today familiar facts that any ambitious business man can appropriate.

I am curious to know how the underlying causes for such conditions in the community, but notwithstanding that business just didn't seem to take hold.

AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER It Seems To Heywood Broun By BEYWOOD BROUN The Nation: A young Southerner in the current American Mercury displays rather modest confidence in the Negro question. The point he develops is hardly startling, and yet he is a man of great faith in the same confession, G. Peyton Teemaker says in effect that the familiar Southern talk about this or that is more a show bunk. The attitude of the embittered Nordic is conditioned solely by his belief to be his own self-interest. I believe very firmly that the self-interest of which the young man spends most of his time seems to me that the Southern whites are almost as much as the Northen. For the former, we seem to me the Southern whites Still, it may be an excellent indication of better days to come when pretence of the Northen cannot be treated realistically. But even the somewhat disdainful Northen cannot hide the fact that be, too, labors under the weight of the stenches. The Northen cannot hide the fact that it is the custom of the country to send logic letters to the Northen soon as the word "Nengo" is mentioned. Silly no one can fairly assert that the Northen are particularly participant in a scientific spirit. Science denies that the Northen are particularly thematic in the highest possible extent with the material under discussion. So South Northen must memorize thematic facts. The proud Nordic begins by saying, "Down here we know what we are."

If South really wants to know the Negro and to live, if possible, upon terms of complete equality with a colored family, he be plainted for the size of the people and to live, if possible, upon terms of complete equality with a colored family. The particular fallback which Mr. Wertenkhan accepts without any hesitation, is the one that it is really too hard to give a liberal education to any Negro, and the only service to increase his tragic sense of frustration. This is a very family, and the South find it comfort. It helps to cause the Caucasian conscience overjoyed greatly in the matter of appropriations for Negro education. It is fair to say that the South find improvement in this respect, but even now the emphasis is placed almost perfectly in this right, which fit the student for some trade. "An educated Negro," writes Mr. Worthembek, "must live in a strange world. He must be a slave. He must select all his attempts to give himself completely to the problem which ordinarily occupies a munk's mind. He must be a slave. He must men for our complicated civil life." RIDE GOOD!

The other argument could be used against the higher education for anyone at all. Knowledge of the subject, in a mature man, white or black, is more keenly conscious of the shams and injustices which walk ahead in the world. Both Negro and Nordic. The college professor who is smoothed or patient has sufficient realization of his own superiority to laugh in his sleeve at the student who has sufficient, realization of his own superiority to laugh in his sleeve at the student who has sufficient, realization of his own superiority to laugh in his sleeve at the student who may anger the uneducated Negro; they merely nerve to amuse the student from an enmineer. It is not rash to assume that Mr. Wertenbaker has never been the close friend of the black scholar satirist, Daniel between earth and heaven, nationally between his own experience, and upon examination of all my acquaintances a more fully and has more fun than any other that I know. He is a member of Columbia Law School, a superb musician, and a Negro. I mean Paul Beezer, the Mercer's Southern brother. He does mercerism, that is, it possible for an educated Negro to attain a state where he looks with a rudderless manifestation of race prejudice. Many times I have heard Beezer rudderless slight which he had encountered on a train or in a hotel. I don't mean that the incident may not have been an accident, it happened, but the man had sufficient poise and background finally to the whole thing into a funny story. After all, a Negro who has had the right to inhabit and be rivals in the classroom and of shaking the very teeth of Nordic halfbacks with the classroom, has finally be humiliated by having Caucasian supremacy dangled in front of him.

FIRST IN INFLUENCE—PAGE SEVEN A recent limited survey made of a certain section of the city by Mrs. E. C. P. Longtress, Jr., of North Philadelphia, revealed some startling facts. The section covered the street on the North, 19th street on the South, and contained 48 city blocks bounded by Girard College on the South, Dupin Street on the North, 19th street on the South, and contained 48 city blocks bounded through the district. In 1916 there were only four small city streets in which colored people lived. In 1917 there are about 40,000 Negroes living in North Philadelphia. The population has reported that in the Negro group, children from 6 to 16 years of age form one-third of the population. Estimated the population of the district is 55,628 and the approximate Negro population is 55,628 and the approximate Negro population of the district is 55,628 and the approximate Negro population shows that the majority of the men are employed as common laborers, while the women are more or less Numbers of these persons are forced to live in shacks because of the lack of housing. These cases when a worker finds a good paying job, he cannot rent a home in the area, and he must meet him at all times. Very often, because of low wages, housing people must submit their portions of sleeping space, and conditions too poor are known to the people. The report of one social service worker states that in the working class districts and particularly in the poorest areas, the live places, in which these individuals are forced to live "are nothings, but places, and at most three stories in height." How Can These Things Be "There are houses of assignation, spare-areas, pod rooms in independently run lodgings, lottery establishments (it being gen-eral school children, especially girls, play the numbers), and dice gambling on the all of this shows the need of pre-operative time, supervised recreational activities; for, continues the report, children show a poor picture of picture and allow the young people to conduct play, show, and have a new type of wandeville. Children appear on the stage in the moving picture theatre on all occasions."

Bryant, secretary of the Sunday School Union and man of the church publishing plant here, he gained the right to fight back. The business of the publishing house is reported to be the largest of the trusts having deflected their orders of Sunday school literature to other publishers. In some instances churches are even purchasing from the M. E. Book Concern at Ginnerville, the largest Episcopal Church, a white organization with many thousand colored members. The church is claiming that some of the literature issued by Mr. Bryant is unfit to read in the Sunday School literature, is edited by an oral cooperative committee composed of both white and colored editors, inscribed with the date with the same general treatment. Say Publication "Unfit" At the bishops' general council held recently in Denver, a group of ministers from this district introduced a request that the bishop be adopted despite a vigorous Bryanism. Among the bishops the resolution asked that the bishops request Governor Henry Horton of Tennessee to establish the exact financial investigation of receipts and expenditures and whatever else might be necessary to establish the exact financial investigation of receipts and expenditures. It further stated that "the Sunday School Union's object is to unite, develop and support school work to provide ample and suitable literature for the same." The statement said, "that the 'Allezite' is not suitable literature but to the contrary it is the most brightening and scathing day school are afflicted. Since this is true, we request an accountant to provide an annual sum of the church's money is being spent on the publishing of literature on the church." Demand An Accounting "We should know what part of the Sunday school's income is used to pay the heating of real estate owned by Im T. Bryant. We should know whose credit are placed the hundreds of dollars received from advertisement in Im T. Bryant. We should know on certain real estate belonging to the Sunday School Union. We should know it is used to pay employees of the Union who repaired the real estate of Ira T. Bryant and who many other employees of the Sunday School have further request that the bishop takes immediate steps to have the charter of the Sunday School approved so that the board can be appointed to all other boards and the church have complete control of the organization. The resolution was signed by a number of ministers.

ANY MAN WHO IS GOOD ENOUGH TO SHED HIS BLOOD FOR HIS COUNTRY, IS GOOD ENOUGH TO BE GIVEN A SQUARE MARK. ALL MARKS MUST BE MORE AND NO MAN SHOULD RECEIVE LESS - ROOSEVELT HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JULY 27, 1929 WHAT ARE FACTS IN HOSPITAL MATTER? Notwithstanding the fact that several days expired after Miss P. A. Newby, the North Carolina registered nurse who reported here for work at the Houston Negro Hospital (under the direction and at the telegraphic and written suggestion of the present superintendent of the hospital), made her appeal to the superintendent, certain members of the colored board and white advisory committee for her round-trip railway transportation and one month's salary; despite the fact the superintendent of the hospital ignored the nurse's plea for such financial consideration, and was backed in her mean and spiteful attitude by at least two members of the white advisory (autocratic) committee; and notwithstanding the fact that one member of the white advisory committee refused to hold a conference with the young woman, and another member of the same white advisory committee literally ordered her out of his office, it appears that something has happened here which caused all of these persons to change fronts! The Informer appeared on the streets last Thursday and Friday discussing the acute case of Bright's disease which threatened to slaughter the local race hospital—in which issue mention was made also of a group of colored citizens organizing for the specific purpose of reimbursing the imported race nurse for the expenses incurred by her in making the long joint from Southport, N. C., to Houston—it seems that somebody or several bodies had been involved in attempting to put the hospital in the right light before the public. The Informer received a telephone call late last Friday evening from Homer E. McCoy, erstwhile treasurer of the colored board, advising this paper that he had signed a check for Miss Newby's round-trip railroad fare and one month's salary and that same would be tendered her by the finance committee, composed of J. Alston Atkins, Carter W. Wesley, Dr. R. O, Roett, H. P. Carter and C. P. BeWalt, had already raised, through public subscription, more than $100; and when the committee heard of the change of heart on the part of the superintendent and the two advisory autocrats, and the somewhat belated action on the part of the colored board, it was decided that, since this tendering of check was made, the committee would not bring it into their own hands, the committee would not drop its work. James B. Griggsy, president of the colored board, explained to the Informer that he had ordered Superintendent M. H. Bright to write the check for Miss Newby before he left the city on July 12 for San Antonio, and that when he returned to Houston and discovered that the superintendent had either failed or refused to follow his previous instructions, he immediately got busy and had to leave. While the Informer does not desire to enter into any controversy or debate with Chairman Griggsy, this paper was told that Miss Newby first placed her case before Mr. Griggsy Tuesday, July 9, doing this before she submitted the matter to the Informer; and that three days expired from the time she appeared to Chairman Griggsy and that she had furthermore, Furthermore, she was back in the city several days before she wait so long to issue this check? Did or does the chairman of the colored board have the authority to issue such checks without his board first voting upon said matter? Did the colored board meet and vote to accede to Miss Newby's request, and did the white advisory committee approve the action of the colored board? If the board voted to reimburse Nurse Newby, or authorized Chairman Grigaby to act in the matter, why would the superintendent ignore the order of the chairman of the hospital board? Has she been led to believe that she is only responsible to certain members of the white advisory committee, and that she need not pay any attention to any order issued by the colored board? In other words, has the present superintendent any confidence in or respect for the colored board of the hospital? If the present superintendent showed such insubordination by ignoring Chairman Grigaby's order, as he avers, then hasn't she abolished her usefulness as head of this institution? Whether the power of the governing body is questioned, or its order ignored or nullified, isn't it about time for said board or body to dispense with the service of such an insubordinate person? If the superintendent ignored this order of the colored chairman did she do upon her own responsibility, or was she ad vised and supported by some members of the white advisory committee? A certain member of the white advisory committee has contended repeatedly that every act committed by the present superintendent of the Houston Negro Hospital is done at his instance and suggestion, and that he backs her up in everything that she does at and in connection with this local race hospital. This being true, did this white committeeman instruct and advise the superintendent to disregard the order of the colored chairman in the Newby case? If the superintendent and the two members of the advisory committee, who were so adamant and hard-boiled in their attitude toward Miss Newby, were right in their original position in refusing her the amount of money requested for the rude and unethical treatment accorded her upon her arrival in this city to accept work at the hospital, why or what caused them to reconsider the matter and execute a complete flop? Finally, was the hospital superintendent insuspendate, or were any orders ever issued here before last Friday, by any person, to issue the check for Miss Newby? The Informer is proposing these interrogations because this paper wants to keep the record straight, and it also wants to know where to place the responsibility for this shameful and damnable action which made it tough to disguise the Houston Negro Hospital and "Heavenly Houston." P. V. EXTENSION TEACHERS PAID According to information received by The Informer, the members of the Prairie View State College Extension School, who were refused compensation by the white supervising accountant for extra services rendered in connection with this special educational work, have received all back pay for their labors during the past session. It seems that the editorsin the Informer, discussing and baring this action on the part of the autocratic and imperialistic supervising accountant at the state school, got into the hands of certain members of the Prairie View board (white); and at its recent meeting the board ordered that all the P. V. teachers engaged in extra work in the extension school be issued vouchers for their services. When the matter of extension school was submitted to the Prairie View board originally, the board voted to authorize the establishment and maintenance of such schools wherever convenient, provided the curriculum and other details could be worked out by the principal of the state college and director of the extension school, along with the state department of education. Despite the fact that the board had authorized the extension school, it was reported that the white supervising accountant, with headquarters at Texas Agricultural and Mechanical College, Bryan, placed his stamp of "official" disapproval upon the school, or at least he disapproved the idea of paying the instructors for the extra work in connection with the extension school. NEGRO FARMERS MUST ORGANIZE The position previously assumed by The Informer, advising colored farmers to organize their forces, is now being brought directly home to the farmers of our race throughout the country. If black farmers hope to get any assistance or relief from and through the recently appointed farm relief board, it is very obvious that they can obtain this succeor only through an organized body. If white farmers must secure financial aid from this board through an organization, then it does not require a sage to see that Negro farmers must pursue a similar course if they are to be successful in getting any relief at the hands of this board. This is an age of organization and combines, and the progressive tillers of the soil of other races have seen the urgent necessity of organizing their forces and pooling their interests for the common good of all their farmers; and colored farmers will do well to follow suit. At best, colored farmers will not get much help from this farm relief board, for it seems that some way is always discovered to disqualify Negroes when it comes to reaping some benefit from certain federal measures intended as an aid to particular groups, and the fact that the Negro is unorganized and therefore unable to push his claims with anything like telling force, always works to the detriment of our racial contingent. We hold our farmers' congresses and short courses in all sections of the South, but when it comes to perfecting and maintaining organized efforts for the poor of all the farmers, we are weighed in the balance and found wanting. This situation ought not to exist, for the farmer is the backbone of our American economic system; but without organization he is at a distinct disadvantage in enjoying and sharing many of the good things devised and provided for the agricultural group of this country. Negro farmers should not organize merely to get "farm relief," but they should organize because of the many advantages and benefits accruing from organized effort and mass action. OPINIONS Cimbee's Ramblings REVIVAL OF RACE CLASHES By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C. The Honorable Perry Howard is being severely criticized for the assertion that the Negro's best friends are found in the South. Mr. Villard and Mr. Howard find themselves in suburban neighborhoods for mutual friendship for the Negro. The fact is that the Negro has many sympathizers and well wishers in both sections who express themselves in terms approved by their respective environments. The Northern contribs to the Negro's racial deed and deed by virtue of the more general atmosphere of the higher latitude. The race question has been involved in political and sectional issues. But now, as the question is being presented, the North and South are living their relative meaning. The Negro may expect a certain measure of encouragement and help from high-minded individuals in both sections. But on the other hand, a common name among them is the same manner, whether in Maryland or Nebraska. Brooklin, Nu York.

Judge John Hancock of old, himself from the picture by committing suicide. This act of self-effacement, it would seem, should have appeared all righteous wrath and satisfied the just demands of the rage. The rage redged white populace might have mutilated the dead cusotm and given it to the dewringing fury in infliction of the savage thrust for blood which still fingers under the fair exertion of the police. He was so with North Platte. The self-inflicted punishment of the criminal does not suffice. The cry for vengeance is not confined to the perpetrator, but is inflicted upon the black community to which he belongs. In North Platte, nor must they stay upon the order of their going. From the grim dispatches, it does not appear that there was a single minister of the gregual, the man or woman in North Platte, nor must they stay on the order of their going. At least the whole white cimery of North Platte was as guilty of cultism as any other man or woman to be stood by and commented to the death of Stephen.

Race prejudice in Chicago and in New Orleans acts in precisely the same way far as concern押着 up the Negro in residential inches to the point that control over its determination in the Windy City than Walker Cohen has in the Crescent City. All of these things should compel to convince the Negro to throw off his sense of false security and to face the situation squarely as it fits him. He must learn to resist the "There is no bidding place up here." He must not be discouraged or overwhined, but must develop an optimism which is common with the activities of the situation. He must learn to stifle the winds of prejudice to propel his behalf to the contrary边 hints his behalf to the winds on the high seas.

The failure of the Southern Pacific Negra passengers on these two trains is causing the company to lose control of the trains and the board of the board of financial organizations in this case, who control mass hauls taken and are taking the post-landing Negra passengers in the Southern Pacific Lines with such risk that Negra Negra can not ride these two trains.

In this connection, the Southern Pacific is the only railway line in Tex. that provides a de lise train that can provide its provisions to menagers; and if this railroad system can continue to operate such train, menagers can receive free trains from adopting a similar policy.* The significant things is that two communities, a thousand ruiles apart, one North and one South, could be moved at the same time, by the same racial sort of animosity. Curiously enough, these racial outbreaks finally became a reality, and we lease that the color line is not crumbling. We have often wondered how the Southern Pacific lines get by with the expressways stipulates that the accommodations on ALL THE PASSANGER TRAINS operating in this state "must accommodate all passengers." The Induiner does not argue that the Southern Pacific lines should add and operate a Pullman car on these expressways; the company could add a combination coach on the Sunset Limited for colored passengers and a combination pathage of colored passengers.

In order that this paper will not be misunderstood and its position questioned, I must state that no railroad should operate a passenger train in Texas on which members of the railroad company called upon the office of the Southern Pacific Line to do the big and mainly thing by making sure that no on all their trains for college travel. In the old day, the Sahara man called the Negro as there, but not in the present. The Negro is a freeman, but not as a slave. While the West did not want him, either as a slave or as a freeman. That name spirit is dominant today. In the upper reaches of the Nile, the larger cities, the Negro finds no assurance place. The whites are sufficiently numismum and willing to perform all types of tanks to meet the needs of the enemy. There is no disposition to share intellectual opportunity with the Negro.
