ANDREWS' ATTACKER FILES INSANITY PLEA AT LOS ANGELES; COURT ACTION ANGERS HUSBAND COLLEGES HAVE LAYMEN EFFORT 14,000 NEGROES DREW HUNDREDS MATRICULATED ON LAST SUNDAY Los Angeles, Cal.-The court room of Judge Marshall McComb, in department 22 of the Superior Court, was filled to capacity Friday morning, by the elite of our group, who arrived in large numbers at an early hour, in order to obtain positions of advantage for what was considered to be a sensational hearing for Everett D. Simpson, who was booked to appear in court to answer to the charge of assault with intent to kill upon the person of Mrs. R. L. Andrews of West 25th Place. The case had attracted much attention because of the prominence of the complainant, appeared in court swathing heavy burgundy and accompanied his husband, R. L. Andrews, prominent wealthy resident of this city, formed the atmosphere was tense and the belligerent attitude of Mr. Andrews was curious spectators who presented a picture of an audience waiting for the end of the drama and the death of the case ended abruptly, and seemingly not the satisfaction of the complainant who clashed with Deputy District Attorney James Costello when the judge can oversee the court at the appearance of Attorney Will O. Tylier, who appeared in court for the delayed decision of the alienate who are to pass upon the sanity of Simpson. The defendant, Simpson, did not appear in court because of his physical condition, and remained at the psychopathic ward, where he is now, and was charged with assault. The action of the court is a confirmation of the confidence and integrity of the beloved wife and friends of Simpson, which they have to steadfastly manifest in him since the occurrence on that fateful Sunday morning on the 13th day of October. Simpson, school, gentleman and educator, had born an unblemished tent, and those who knew him best, having it amounted $1 when the battleship questioned that he beyond a question of a doubt he had suddenly gone inane. Simpson declares insane by his Superior Court of Los Angeles Commission, which is a department of Superior Court of Los Angeles is presided over by Judge w. T. Gould. The determination that Simpson is not and was not responsible for his actions in the attack on Andrews comes from four sources. First: An alienist engaged by ATL. Secondly: An alienist appointed by the district attorney's office in thirdly: An alienist appointed by the court for its own information. MISSOURIAN WINS STATE PRIZE Kansas City, Mo.—(ANP) - E. S. L.

SYNOPSIS INSTALLMENT X The Monday Night Club held its opening in Broaden, a fine old frame building of the conventional Charleton type with piazza along its south facade, over the Coming Street. The street Broaden was an inconspicuous figure, of middle height and age and light in color. He stood down over his eyes and always walked, although he was known to be exceedingly well-to-do, and a number of his friends in his office of the new Nigro bank, however, and facing a caller across the street. Immediately one would notice the high ceiling of the deep thoughtful eyes. Mrs Broaden was a deep perfect partner—she were thirty and managed the home decor, conceals itself in its work and gives an effect of effortlessness and manners to her ten degrees, but his was from Tuxeken, where he was a graduate of University. On the first night that Lisa attends a meeting of the club, she meets the first member to arrive at the Broadner residence. Her host greeted her affectionately and had come early; she exclaimed, "Now I'll have a chance to make you laugh." She explained that her husband took the girl by the hand and led her over the lower floor of the house, where she watched which periods gave the impression of being superimposed upon each other like geological strata—real plains, desert, and beautiful old Hebrew and Chippundale—a free New York and some of the furniture had been in the family for more than a century. Lisa was here that she never knew exits, and the picture. It exhibited a group of mannequins of the earthquake, portions Levits arranged several bouts for the young talented fighter, in all of which Jack was shown to advantage. Even at this early age, he disclosed an "upper-cut" blow which gave the copy of much more experienced pupils. Someone suggested spiritina. Lissa had leged dozens of them from the old women in their room. She saw the women in her room. "Oh, do we let's sing them," she said. "Do we let's move 'Play on Your Harp.'

THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1929 Having won a fair reputation as a beaver, Jack returned to Galviston. He whipped one John Lee, who had there gained popularity as a pugilist. This took place in an open field in which they was a large ring in the corner. "I believe I heard that a church near the jail had having a revival this week that can go that way if you want," and he said. "I saw the bidding byway. I saw the metting battleship tower of the jail against the soft stars. So they agreed to build a building." Jack engaged in several of these affairs but none gained for him the fame that came from his successful film life as Joe Pierson, the town bully of Galveston. The dispute arises out of a crap game assigned to Jack and his filmmaker face to face. This was one of the most vicious rights of Jack's on- behind a fence of whitewashed padded the door and windows were swept building was jammed with black humanity. The service was well ada- lanced, and the musicians awaying to "Swing Low, Swing Char- ter." This was not the Burleigh arch of the stage, but with this performance, the air rocked to a deep solace chorus, yet a chorus part of the band part-shaving harmonies with fractional notes so fine and so spontan- ence, capturing the culture and the sound. Liza gripped the pallings with her hands, exclamation. "There," she said, "that what I mean, they have fun with whether the notes are right or not. They are not just naturally cutting He took her firmly by the arm and was surprised at her random and comical gestures, and walked without a word by his side. Only a few more steps and they came up the high tuffedness wall soaked, cutting the sk air away almost to the point of the wall, and the of the battlemented tower hanging diarly in sharp outline against the wall. Lissa looked up, and the black wall seemed to sew forward and hang in place, suddenly dark with the suffering of the thousands who hadain there in the people. Her mother's face sprang vividly up before her, and she thought with Mamia next morning. Then they were under a bleargy gas lamp. She had not said a word since she had been at her curiously, "Why, you're crying," he exclaimed. "What in the I am lonely," she said in a trembling voice, "I'm the loneliest girl in the world." She please I want to get home. (To be Continued Next Week) In 1921 Texas shipped 19 cars of citrus fruits. In 1929 it expects to ship 5,000 with a small gain of 10 percent.

This may be prepared before preparation of the other Christmas goodies. You can prepare your display of edibles. Furthermore, sugar is a particularly valuable food ingredient. The centrifuged source of that internal fluid is used to a thin layer on a sweater or overcaut in protecting active children from the biting sensation of candy. Here are two recipes for unusual home made candies, which you will use. STRAWBERRY LUNCHEON PATTIES CREAM CARAMELS 2 cups granulated sugar Mix together the sugar, the cream and the flour slowly to the boiling point, stirring well. Cook until the mixture will form a ball. Add the remaining cream and cook again until the cany balls are hard. Flavor with the vanilla and pour into the dry mixture more than in necessary during the cooking, as stirring will cause the sugar to turn brown. PUMPKIN ME 1 cup strained strained pumpkin 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon sugar 1 teaspoon flour with the dry mixture 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 egg 1 cup sweetened condensed milk 1 unkilled pie crust Mix ingredients in the order given; pour into pan lines with unbleached pie crust.

Clayton Powell of the Albuquerque Baptist Church, of New York City, has assumed the role of president of the secronym he cried out and spared not against corruption the Negro prison. In one instance at least, he pointed the accounting finger at the president of the African American direction: "Hit the man." We have heard no such scathing denunciation from high authority since Bishop Paimed died. Booker T. Washington, at one time, took a bishop's pardon, but the practical exigencies of his material task quickly caused desistance. The ordinary layman is armed at the complacency with which ministers who are known to be believers contemplate the flabby sign of health the motions eulogize. This untoward state of things has gone so far that the average layman has largely lost confidence in and respect for the ministry, as a whale. To put this assertion, as an affirmation, as an警示, the jury, firstly, may casually with and submit the question of the integrity and proficiency of the Negro clergy. The verdict will not "flatter the church." Gehrt, sexual abuse and abuse, constitute the gravamen of the charge. HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1929 COLLEGES TEACHING USE OF BALLOT In a recent interview given to a representative of the Associated Negro Press, Dr. John W. Davis, president of West Virginia State College, Charleston, West Virginia, is credited with saying that "proper participation in government and right use of the college is a part of the extension and industrial program of our colleges." This is a very strange doctrine, coming as it does from the head of one our land-grant colleges; for The Informer has observed that most of our teachers, both in public and private schools, seem to be obessed with an idea that they stand in imminent danger of losing their lives, if they should exercise their elective franchise rights. Will Dr. Davis be held as a "dangerous radical" in certain circles for daring to advocate such a doctrine? Will our other heads of land-grant colleges, private colleges and public schools heed the timely suggestion of this eminent educator and begin to instruct their charges upon the use of the land and the part they should play in the life of a democratic republic. We must be careful not to indulge in wholesale condemnation. A majority of the Negro ministers doublely live up to the moral requirement that the Negro minister is not enough. A much smaller percent of any profession will suffice to give the anvil a reputation. No grocery man could sell his eggs on the street, but the majority of them is sound. A few may still taint the reputation of the whole basket. We have a right to require well-ight one hundred per cent proportion of those who engage in the path of truth and righteousness. If there is one profession where real moral courage is woefully needed, it is among so many of the Negro teachers of this country, particularly in the South, who seem to fear that their days will be short and full of trouble in the school-room if they evince any interest in the exercise of the ballot, unless there is an election for school bonds or a board of education. If a poll were taken of our race teachers, both in private and public schools, we fear that it would be startling to discover the small number of Negro teachers who know how to use a ballot intelligently. So person can impart that which he does not know, and before Negro teachers can teach students the proper use of the ballot and how to mark same in an election, it strikes us that quite a number of our teachers, themselves, will be forced to take a special course along this particular line. The haste and rush with which the ranks of the Negro ministry had to be recruited entailed many imperfections. You cannot take forty thousand men from the peasant and servant classes into the high places of moral guidance and authority without bringing forward much of the character of their precious environment. No miracle of grace has yet transformed any body of men from greensness to purity, in the same way that much of this greensness we had to overclock and wink in the generation gone by. But that time has passed. The educational and moral life of the race has rapidly advanced and demands corresponding progress in the moral and rational leaders. The public educational system of the South has been designed and operated along channels calculated to discourage the use of the ballot on the part of Negroes; the Dixie political philosophy being that "politics is too dirty" and that consequently Negroes should eschew politics and let the other races attend to all political matters and issues. The ballot is also concerned. The Informer holds to the view that much of our educational training tends to dwarf rather than develop the race; for thousands of young people are leaving our institutions of learning annually with no objective and caring not one whit for questions of public moment and import. Many of these youth, and even some of their instructors, think that when they oppose some proposition or candidate before the electorate, by falling to go to the polls and vote they have registered their opposition. * Very often we have heard supposed educated Negroes exclaim on election day: "O, I am against that and I am not going to vote!" * Despite the fact that our schools and churches are our most powerful factors in the symmetrical development of the race, both are falling shamefully when it comes to this matter of citizenship and active participation in political affairs. The Negro church now stands at the parting of the ways. It has been the Negra's greatest asset. It must resist the inability. Unusually a sharp and sudden change is effected in the tendency of certain of our lending ecclesiastical organizations they will be utterly repudiated by the intelligent and self-sacred members of the method of the race. They will, and of right ought to, refuse to follow incompetence and corruption in the pulpit. Only the older half of the generation, now rapidly diminishing, will be able to resist the rightous regime. The younger and more intelligent half will repudiate it utterly. The moral lender must be at least as good, and ought to be better, than the best of those he engages The trouble seems to lie in our leadership, and very little headway will be made in this respect until the race produces a new type of leadership, both in the pulpit and school-room. Going a bit farther, Dr. Davis said: "A ballotless people is a hopeless people. They do not vote with which to impoverish their will and community. Without this, civic improvement and the social betterment of the community can not move toward democratic goals. The community, which consciously carries within its body politic a ballotless group of people, defaults in the huge experiment in democracy now being attempted in America. The teaching of citizenship, then, in this broader context, is a debation which our colleges owe to their communities or states." In emphasizing the obligations and responsibilities of citizenship, Dr. Davis should have counseled our leaders to stress upon their followers the act of qualifying as electors in compliance with the laws of the several states, in order that Negroes might be eligible to vote in the various elections. For example, may your political before the midnight of January 31, 1930, when you can cast your ballot in the elections during the next year. The college hedge Negro turns away from the ministry with diagun, induced largely by the imperfections of too many of the fathers in Israel who dominate the situation. The Negro ministry ought to form the highest challenge to the intelligence, the heroism and the noble ambition of the who are now passing through the graft, grafted and corruption, too often up before them, offers an uninvoking assault. NEGRO FARMERS URGED TO ORGANIZE At the recent thirty-ninth annual Tuskegee Negro Farmers' Conference, held at Tuskegee Institute, the theme of the parley seemed to have been "Organize!" Speaker after speaker endeavored to impress upon the thousand or more Negro farmers present the necessity of organizing their forces so as to get in a position where they could better themselves and enjoy some of the fruits of their labor, as the white farmers have done and are doing all over the country. The true priest of God takes on the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. But to witness our high priest, we must wrestle with the wounded treasured from God's poor, domineering in the exercise of irresponsible power and belied with charges of all forms of impunity, and how hardly to tolerate a priest prince daring to accretorate vow. The church cannot be built up in this wise. Too often the people are maddled with a heavy burden of debt which they cannot implicate in. The church is not a condescension concoct and condescension concoct. Several Negro churches tinger under an annual budget of as much as fifty thousand dollars, four Notable among these speeches was the address by Hon. James C. Stone, vice-chairman of the United States Farm Board, who was quoted as saying, among other things, the following to the race farmers present at the meeting: "The Farm Board can not organize you. If you are satisfied with what you are doing, you can get together and sit down and figure out what you want and then try to get it. I am here to tell you today, that the Farm Board is in charge of all the work in the farm. In the in the farmer. You are all farmers and we are going to do for you as much as we are for anybody else; you all look to us. If you are not satisfied with what you are doing, you cannot succeed in these cooperative organizations unless you believe in what you are trying to do. The government of the United States Farm Board is in charge of all the work in the farm and is trying to work out a system where every farmer will have access to money at a fair rate of interest. The Farm Board is going to do its part, we are working to do your work." This is sound and same advice and Negro farmers will do well based the admonition of this eminent leader in the field of farm be wrested from waiters, barbers, cooks and washmen. The layers are already in a state of revolt. The members are in a state of disbelief; membership are to break under the staggering load of church debt. Hats off to Dr. Powell. The conserved and devoted portion of the ministry—the silent majority, should be allowed to escape. Drive them into open disgrace, as the wrathful Jesus drove the extortionate money changers from the temple. Then, and not until then, the church repress the high esteem in which he trolling influence in the life of the race. Then, and not until then, will intelligent, high minded, consecrated youth delight to take their rightful place in the spiritual leadership of the masses.
