Houston Informer

TEXAS ODD FELLOWS WIN CASE NEGROES ATTEND BACK-DOOR SHOW 5 PRICE CENTS VOL. XI TEXA NEGR THE MIRROR LAST CALL FOR 1930 OMEGA'S SOCIAL EVENT SOME WINTRY WEATHER THAT RICHMOND RAID Before another issue of The Informer reaches the majority of its Houston and Texas readers, the time limit will have expired for the payment of the poll tax or obtaining an exemption certificate, which will entitle the holder to the right to vote in the various elections which will be held in this city, county and state during 1930. Under the Texas poll tax statute, all persons must procure their poll tax receipt or exemption certificate before the midnight of January 31, of the year in which they intend to cast a ballot, or they will not be permitted to exercise their elective franchise right during said year. After Friday, January 31, those residents of Houston and Texas who do not hold either a poll tax receipt or exemption certificate, will be as dead as the proverbial dodo, as far as the elections of the current year are concerned. Therefore, The Informer is making this final appeal to all Hustonians and Texans, and most especially those of the Negro race, to obtain the valuable piece of paper before February 1, 1930. Property owners can pay their poll taxes in county taxes, but they can not pay their state and county taxes without payable tax. You are going to be delinquent in the payment of your state and county taxes, but you can pay tax receipt by midnight of Friday, January 31, 1930. Many important elections will be held in the state of Texas and county of Texas, primarily in the state of Texas and county of Texas, but tax receipt by midnight of Friday, January 31, 1930. Take no chances on disqualifying your vote, but see in that you are eligible to vote, and at this stage of the game espionage will be written in this state during the present year.

Omega Psi Phi fraternity, of which Omega Psi Phi chapter is led up to its established reputation as being the most select and claess on colored Houston's social circles. Despite the fact that King Boreas was raging with all his frigid fury and was inducting into the community the coldest weather in forty years or more, the attendance at this annual affair was good, and being strictly formal, the attendants presented a human picture which only an artist can depict or describe. When it comes to natural feminine beauty of the type which would have caused Venus to blush with shame and seek new fields for her laurels in pulchritude, the Negro race has it and how! Charming women, bedecked in exquisite evening gowns and handsome men, attired in the conventional formal apparel, added culture and refinement to an otherwise brilliant social soiree. Silhouetted against a setting with the oriental Japanese motif prevailing, with sweet strains of melodious dance music having a modified intoxicating reaction upon those who worshipped at the shrine of Terpsichore, truly the Omega's yearly dance was the deluxe occasion of the season, and boldly refuted the oft-made assertion that the Negro race is sadly deficient in real beauty, charm, grace, culture and refinement. Chairman Carter W. Wesley, James D. Ryan, G. T. Stocks and others of the committee deserve unintended laudation for the excellence and brilliance of this outstanding social event.

While Houston was experiencing the coldest weather and worst freeze rates in Texas, the Texas cities and towns were also getting a taste of real winter with subzero weather. Amarillo reporting 6°C with the same alziphrity with which he made his unexpected trip to Grimwain made his departure and by Sunday afternoon we were enjoying the usual weather, so no characteristic of this section, with Houston's customary precipitation as usual, was apparent.

D. Goodson, 39-year-old Negro druggist, inflicted wounds which resulted fatally for himself in the rear of a drug store on East Mulberry Street in which he was employed, Wednesday afternoon. The shooting occurred about 3 o'clock. Goodson died shortly afterward at a local hospital to which he had been taken for treatment. According to officers who investigated the case, the shooting took place after Walter Terrell, official of the treasury department, had called at the drug store to check whiskey stocks carried for use in filling prescriptions. The investigation showed, the officers state, that the supply had been depleted with no prescriptions on file to account for the discrepancy between the figure shown in the check and the quantity on hand. When his attention was called to this, Goodson is said to have gone into a room in the rear of the store and shot himself. Goodson and his brother, Dr. Samuel Goodson, a practicing physician at Sherman, had been here about ten years. The drug store in which he was employed was operated by him and his brother. Both graduated from Maharry Medical College, Nashville, Tenn. It is said. He was born and reared in DeWitt County. AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, JANUARY 25, 1930 Houston Insurgent Loses His Appeal; Followers Panicky Committee of Management Dismisses "Chick" Jones' Appeal Originating at Galveston Grand Lodge—Bellicose Insurgents Lose Fight—Grand Master Jackson's Rulings Upheld—Legality of Election Sustained Philadelphia, Penn—The committee of management, governing body of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of America and the highest tribunal of that organization, in full session Monday, dismissed the case of E. E. Jones, Houston Odd Fellow and prospective leader of a revolt against the administration of the Texas jurisdiction. The decision to dismiss came as the result of a motion of one of the members of the committee, made after a study of the plea of Jones and a study of the plea for dismissal offered by the cabinet of the Texas jurisdiction. Allegations Anent Galveston Session Basis for Jones Case The case, which has been widely discussed by many Texas Odd Fellows who have been joined by discontented members from other parts of the state, arose from violations of the general law by Grand Master G. W. Jackson during the golden jubilee celebration in Colorado. It was alleged by Jones that the rulings of the grand master were arbitrary and subservive of democracy. It is also alleged that Jones was joined in making his complaint by several other Odd Fellows from Houston and other parts of the state. All of these, however, have disclaimed any connection with the case. Decision of Committee Completely Disposes of Matter The decision of the committee of management completely disposes of the matter and allows the jurisdiction, under the leadership of Grand Master Jackson of Corcissane, Texas, and his caballero, 10 go forward with their progressive plans for the enlargement of the order. Information as to the disposition of this case was received in Houston, Tuesday, in a telegram from James F. Needham, secretary of the committee of management to James T. Ewing, district grand secretary of Texas Odd Fellows. FEDERAL COURT OF APPEALS VOIDS RICHMOND'S VICIOUS ORDINANCE DIRECTED AT NEGRO RESIDENTS New York City—The United States Circuit Court of Appeals at Richmond, Virginia, recently affirmed the recent decision by Judge Groner of the United States Court of Appeals Eastern District of Virginia, who declared the recently enacted segregation ordinance passed by the city council of Richmond to be unconstitutional. The decision of the court of appeals, resulting from an appeal by Judge Groner from Judge Groner's decision, was rendered by Circuit Judges Parker and Northcott and District Judge McDowell. The ruling dealt a crushing blow to the hopes of the Richmond authoritarianism would be declared valid. The Circuit Court of Appeals' decision affirming Judge Groner's was made on the basis of the Warren, won by the N. A. A. C. P. in 1917, which carried to the supreme court by the N. A. A. C. P. through its New Orlando and known as Harmon v. Tyler. The decision rendered, quoting the Supreme Court's tenuity in made to distinguish the case at bar from these cases (Buchanan w. Warlay and Harmon vs. Tyler) on the basis of the same legal under consideration bases its interdiction on the legal prohibition of inter-marriage, based on law of the Court of Appeals, identical with that which the supreme court has twice decided in the cases. The Federal Court of Appeals' decision continues by dismissing one of the monarch city authorities in which at- tempt is made to justify the segregation ordinance on the basis of court jurisdiction of certain types of buildings, and to restrict property in certain areas for certain types of buildings. The ordinance requires "with the right of a city to forbid the construction of a particular building in certain sections of the city, which is from that involved here. The supreme court did not consider that the property in any way overruled or limited by Euclid v. Amber, is shown by the five months after the latter case and its decision was expressly on the former. It was no error and in decree below it afforded." Locus V. Cary, assistant city attorney, presented case, announced following rendition of the decision that the city States Supreme Court. There seems, however, little likelihood of success of the United States Supreme Court in the case of Buchanan v. Walley The situation occasioned by the Richmond ordinance is a novel one in that there was considerable opposition to the ordinance not only by colored people, but by whites as well. Colored citizens, under the leadership of Dr. Leon A. Reid, prominent Richmond dentist, raised funds to fight the case. The Richmond daily newspapers unequivocally condemned passage of the ordinance and the Richmond Interracial Commission was active against it. Throughout the progress of the case, Attorneys Alfred E. Cohen and Joseph R. Pollard of Richmond had the cooperation of the national legal committee of the N. A. A. C. P., and Walter White, acting secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. paid a visit to Richmond to help in preparation of plans to contest the ordinance. The case is known as City of Richmond.

The dignity and refinement of the programs coupled with their high entertainment value are making the "Walker Hour" an anticipated joy Monday night throughout the nation. PARHAM PLANS TO TAKE EXAMS DURING MARCH Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—Alonzo Parham is going back to West Point Military Academy, if it is humanly possible for him to do so. The subject of mathematics, which reared itself like a huge Alps to block the progress of this modern young Hannibal at the academy, is to be attacked through study during the allotted period before he makes his final effort to prove that there are no Alps for determination. The above is the substance of information obtained from Mrs. Minnie Parham, his mother, following the receipt of a letter from her son after he had left West Point. "Everything in his letter seemed to indicate that he was not going to give up," Mrs. Parham acknowledged proudly, "and I don't think he is.

While the main entrance to this all-white playhouse is located on Main Street, the Negroes who attended the "jim-crow" show last week, were forced to enter and exit via a back door on Travis Street. In making a bid for colored patronage on this special occasion, the management of this white theatre conducted a grape-vine advertising campaign, and not one word was said about this midnight "Negro show" in any of the daily newspapers published in this city, either prior or subsequent to this special show. According to information conveyed to The Informer, the audience was composed principally of Negro professional and business men and women, many of whom think it beneath their dignity to be attend and all colored playhouse and who only attend Negro churches (whenever they condescend to worship) because they cannot not worship in white churches, or because the white churches will not conduct "special midnight" services for them rather than uncomfortably. It is further stated that the theatre was rather chilly and uncomfortable and that the 600 or more local Sambon paid 60s to see this one picture, and walked outside at the back of the unfavorable and disagreeable weather until all the whites had descended after the last show of the evening. This special Negro audience was permeated all on the first floor of the Sopra building, waiting by galloping stood on entry duty to see it that the Sopragan anne is conducted that the Sopragan anne is mamar and "stayed in their places."

Harlem Still Silent on the Mysterious Murder of the Piercreque Battle of Sid, Who Killed the Lure of Gay Life. OUR YEARS ago a man was murdered—shot down in cold blood on one of the narrow streets of Harlem. The narrow his murderer still roams unmplaced, and unknown, with only the punishment of his own conscience to pay for the life of the man he killed. Four years ago, Officer John I. Meehan, in making his nightly round of the cabaret district, stumbled over the body of that man, a gruesome sight, sprawled across the sidewalk in a pool of blood. Two gunshot wounds in his back indicated how he had come to grief. An old piston was found in the gutter. That was all. Officer Meehan recognized the fellow almost instantly. He was a big, husky chap, black as a man could possibly be; kinky hair, flat nose, and a chubby, laughing face. No one could mistake him. It was none other than Battling Siki, once bolder of several boxing championships and victorious over the great French ace, Georges Carpentier. They removed him to the hospital, but he was dead and nothing could be done. An investigation was started. Who had tired the shots? Nobody knew. Who had heard them? No one who has been the crime committed to him. Who had enabled him to over the body before the policeman? Not a sting. Evidently, Harlem was not awakened by the shots at four in the morning. The detectives shook another startle when he saw the woman. Somehow he leapt out that he had been in a certain café. "Gee, we had grazed," he was able well swerved, or start a film in the café.

His sudden rise to purguitile fame was as much a surprise to himself as to the entire world. The sudden wealth, the glory and the glamor of it, will, went immediately to his head. He was a picturesque fighter, and filled nothing better than to toy with his opponents until the last round, and then theatrically knock them out. His boasted that he trained on high life, and wine, and women, and song, and no one doubt his assertions. He was in the midst of receiving fabulous offers for projected fights both here and abroad, when he was suddenly suspended by the French Boeing Federation for a ringside fight that wasn't on the program. But he grew furious when the sum pension was not lifted at once, and decided to cause a furore by letting the public be on a few boxing secrets.

Business League Protests Policy of Several Store Still fighting his way through, he came to America, where he planned a barnstorming tour of the theatres. There were three other fighters in the little troupe: the others were white. The first week's engagement at the Lafayette Theatre in New York went over fairly well and he had been booked to play the Howard Theatre for the week after the next, with a week for a Christmas holiday. It was Monday night, just a few days before Christmas. He went out, telling his wife, the former Lillian Werner, whom he had married in spite of the fact that he had a common-law wife in Netherlands, that he was going to "talk with some of the boys for a while." Mr. Siki went to a movie, and re-entered hours of the movie, as it was nothing unusual for the fighter to reach home in the early hours of the day. Parvain Mechan greeted Siki, whom he recognized as the pupil enter a restaurant. Four hours later, Mechan made his way to the kitchen, where it was dark and still, except for the whistle of the wind through the canopy. Then it was me, the policeman stumbled over something—something that was clearly visible. For weeks the detectives tried to piece together the story, but Harlem was a way of going on on occasions. The police gloved silver after Mechan had passed through the two shots. No one had stumbled over the body. There were three detectives in the gutter, yielded no fingerprints. The detectives were, stumped, and no murder has ever been convicted. Perhaps some day the story will come out.

Business League Protests Policy of Several Stores New York City.—(ANP)—Following the recent newspaper reports of discrimination against Negro customers by some of the department stores in Washington and other places, the National Negro Business League addressed a letter to the executive offices of some of the chain stores which deal in women's apparel to find out what their attitude is concerning Negro customers. In commenting on the situation, Alben L. Holsey, secretary of the National Negro Business League, said: "I am a member of the industry, which has now must use the purchase of power of the race to secure recognition from white stores which have large Negro support in the form of courteous treatment and employment of Negro clerks." The first one of the chain clothing stores to reply to the letter from the national league came from the Lorner Stores Corporation with headquarters in Los Angeles. "I wish to assure you that we have always considered the Negro trade of great value to us, and we have made it a point to see to it that our stores show absolutely no discrimination. In our Southern stores where there is, unfortunately, a definite situation which we cannot overcompt, we have gone to the extent of providing special fitting rooms in order that our Negro patrons might shop in comfort." Another one of the chain stores which does not wish its name divulged at present indicated that they would, with the cooperation of the Business League, make a survey of the earning capacity and buying habits of the Negro in the South with a view to establishing branch stores with Negro managers and salespeople. MILTON CHICAGO HEARS NEGROES TO BUY JEWISH TEMPLE Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—Simultaneous with the announcement that the directors of Sinal Temple, the most prominent Jewish temple for the section of a new temple, came the report that the present house of worship would be bought by the African Methodist Episcopal Church of the four ducal church. The present report, the temple will not be purchased by Greater Bethel A. M. E. Church, which is yet without a permanent place of worship, due to a fire which destroyed the church office some years ago, and will be known as the Diocessan church, standing as a memorial to the work of Bishop Archibald J. Carey who presides over this district. The two midships of the A. M. E. General Conference here last year, it was reported that Sinal Temple would provide a sum for the neighborhood of $400,000. This purchase, materialize to factual differences in the church and petal joyfulness of the bishop and officers of the church. Efforts were made to consummate the deal in order to hold the conference through, due to the fact that the meeting immediately after the appointment of Bishop Carvay to this district, in one of the churches, by the conference, negotiations are for the purchase of the tombs, which is located in the heart of the Southwest, and covering a little more than a half block of the most valuable property It is known here that it is the desire of Bishop Carry to see this property for the A.

Bishop Carey denomination owns the most attractive church buildings in the city of Chicago, and the project one of the dioceses instead of a community affair has, according to the church, will be placed immediately to organize a drive for the necessary funds. One of the foremost reasons why Bishop Carey was appointed to this district, which denomination was the belief that he would be able to devise ways and methods to win the prize, would be the pride of African Methodism throughout the country. When the first deal fell through it was free, the denomination cooperated with Bishop Carey the property could, have been acquired.

The mist lifted, divided itself into vast, slowly-climbed and hescated, and hescated until some unseen force seized them and whirled them together. The road, touched by the sun, turned in the road. He An hour passed, and the sun, now well over the tree-tops, commenced swamp. The din of voices that had heard in the dawn commenced to shatter, almost complete silence. Then as the swamp dwelled the central areas of the marshes and made progress difficult, the air about her broke into a shrill whisper, quitae enveloped her, settling on dawn on head, and legwavs on both hands. With a heavy splash commenced to settle slowly into the semi-fluid core. Slapping wildly at her skin on the poen, Hagur turned her back on the body and offered a slight bargeway from search of one of the little islands that ripple from the water of the swamp and offer a slight bargeway from At last she found it, a knoll of high ground, lifting out of the cypress knees, and having above it an irregular circle of opaque blue-gray sky. Crouched over almost on all fours, with prehensile hands tearing her way through the undergrowth, the great woman emerged like a prehistoric creature quitting its primal alime and climbed out upon the knoll. For a moment she sat panting heavily, her face and arms steaming with sweat and blood from stings and thorn lacerations. Then from her pocket she drew a bandana handkerchief, a clay pipe, tobacco, and matches. She mopped her face, filled the pipe and lighted it, then sat The Stormy Career of Jack Johnson - - No. 8 Just's next quest located him in Honey, Oka.

The mist it swung and pulsed. The moving bodies that hung close to the ground and hesitated until some unseen force came to them together in silent chanzo. The woman stopped in the road, couched and about her. She saw vane, incheate masses heaped upon the earth, and she about to kiss the mist, and when she looked again, the mist and the earth looked again, the day had moved to the forests, fields and cabins. The light on the ground, dividing tree from tree, lifted into the trees that still clenched with mist and as they withdrew at a given signal, the world burst into sound. Birch shrilled from the ground, calling for the teeming call Hagar heard the teeming life of a positive voice. She had been tricked by beauty, and day had taken her brake into a dog trot. It was impressive that she reach the shack, and then she reached the voice. The voice of the swamp grew louder, the sound very bulk of the shack. Hilton was lying where she had left him. Quickly she overdrove over to the building where she should. Then, casting a hasty glance around, she had only a hundred dollars to make, as she was to make, for as she left the shack, the sun pierced the mist over the building. It collimated the huge figure of the woman with fire, and cast a Garantan shadow before her as she labored. She was burdened and grotesively burdened. She extended an arm and parted a curtain of vines, then she passed through into glooming gloom. Black ooze squirred between her toes and The boxing show then travelled about Cobham, extended over was crowned a battle, was arranged between Jack and one American Pete, who had paired fame through including him from Sharagh. Jack was life in Birmingham. gulping the acrid smoke in 'great chong chong' blowing, and the cloud of smoke took to cloudy skies. The towels took reluctant flight, and with the swamp air tough to think swamp气 to think things. She realized of al that there was no occasion for speed. Beyond the swamp, the air was populous and populous land in truck farms, and this must be crossed in truck farms, and this must be crossed in truck farms. She need not resume her journey, then, for several hours, and this was She ate breakfast from her package of provisions, and refilled her pipe. Already her fatigue was passing, and her mind commenced to turn over her problem, dwelling upon her various aspects. Usually, when Mamba had told her what to do, that ended it, and she gave the matter no further thought. But now, with the realization that the guiding genius of that intelligence had gone from her, some perhaps forever, a sense of individual responsibility bore down upon her and forced her to study and reason on her own account. Mamba had had to think mighty quickly there in the dark with Lissa waiting to hurry away to safety. And Mamba did not know the's country as she did. Did not know Proc Baggart, for one thing. Mamba's plan depended for success entirely upon her escape; her ability to traverse the mainland and reach one of the Sea Islands where there were almost no white folks, and where the Negroes would'd be that big clumsy body of hers from the police so that she could not be caught and questioned. Her train of thought broke off, and for a moment her mind was a clean and uncleanly�in the air. But I had a blout minded itself. She saw him limbs jutting woodenly from the wall. She had a long head and a long head of his open eyes. Poor Gilly—she could n't hate him now. Then she wondered if she had a long head and a long head. He had for one and remembered only that she had strangled him and left him to take her back. She had been so long and there was no use to worry about it. How was she the window of the night? She was the window and the swans of the sunset, and the hour, then set out to the southward light. Gilly hated the darkness of the night. She had to be so light to be bright lights. " Yes, to the southward, that was what she must think of. But I was not so good to do that by sunrise. Her thoughts came slowly, they had short unsteamed sturded light up to the back. But she could be a child learning to walk. By sunrise, she'd not risk the bridge—but swim to the sea. She had to be so low to stay, and she had left him. " Sain Helena was the last one of the last. She had heard lots of talk about Saint Helena—two night farther away—maybe three thousands of times. She had a long head, it could get there and tell a lodge slater that she was a "Vestal Virgin." They'd be very good to be a "Vestal Virgin" who would not stand together—even their own men could find out their secrets. When dark came on and Gilly could be a star—she had a long head. She was the first time. Yes, the "Airings" always stuck for each other. She remembered one of the best of her life. She had been so far away as she had been. She had loosen. In the hot sunlight. Hagar's blood was suddenly chill. She mopped her face and had a little look. The Reverend and lighted her pipe. The Reverend Grayson knew what he was talking about, and he had a little look of church that spirits couldn't walk. " Even old Masmum Vina believed that—and she had been almost a conjurate with herself and her money in the road. She would think about the reverend awhile. " Yes, I'm a good man. " Gilly would forget that she had saved his life once. He'd only remember him with his eyes full of black water. The reverend the reverend-Ha- man realized him, but his face eluded her —he was only a width of whitewashed a will that had a cross padded around it. He was not alone when he took Mann Vine's hope away heaven or hell . . . that was the. It. The her mind was suddenly dislusted. Again her mind was a clean blank. She got to her feet and moved about the island, and she saw the water become conscious of the hayy rain she saw that the sun was directly overhead, and she realized that she had heard the heartily of her cemebread and drank a few swallows from the side of the island where the water was vaded her body.

Ediato by tomorrow morning. Likely as not they would never find Bluton and think he had gone away. Then Lisa would always be safe. Some day, a long time off, she might even get back to see Mamba again and hear all about Lisa from her. She stretched her length on the grass, and presently, in the steamy narcotic moon heat, she dropped into sleep. She saw Bluton turn slowly over in the mud. She saw the rig'd knee and elbow joints give and the may stand upright. Then she saw him following her path through the swamp, but without effort, and that was strange, for his eyes were blind with swamp ozone. Briars that had impeded her did not detain him. He started the vines and thrust his face into the clearing. She opened her eyes in a stare. And there he was. After the passage of an indeterminable space of time the apparition faded. Hagar was terrified, but she knew what she would have to do before she proceeded on her way. Fighting mosquitoes with tobacco smoke and flailing arms, she retraced her steps with incredible labor of body and agony of spirit dragged the corpse to the island. Rigor martis was passing, and Hagar composed the limbing,�iently, and bathed the face and eyes with her handkerchief. Then, leaving it, gazing up into the opple sky, she set off for the outer edge of the swamp. Her spirit soared, her step became light and sure. It seemed that only now was she free of the actual physical incubus. She stretched her arm to the end and straightened her broad shoulders. Gilly would rest, easy now with the sun in his face all day and the stars keeping him company at night. She was shed of him at last—free. She made surprisingly good time, and it was still afternoon when she noticed that the trees before her were no longer a solid wall but showed thin places where the light filtered through from the open fields beyond. She was in splendid trim for the journey, her sense been, her much disregretful, and the more of the morning she waited in excited anticipation for the coming of night. Out beyond the trees, where the bark is smooth, the abominable monarch hound roiled over in a straw-straw field, yawned, and his mongolian rattle twisted his mongolian rattle. Twenty feet away a cottontail took alarm, hoisted its head, and twisted its long, lently toward the cover of the tree. The rabbit, scant a scent of the rabbit and trawl it past the nostril of the solomolent curd, moved and hummed the morsel and toughed and hummed the morsel and a neighboring hound half a dozen heavy slaves, and the browstraw commenced to sway to the threshing With her confidence at its weight, Hagar heard them coming. An icy hand seized her heart, contracted about, and her blood. Drawing the head through her head, a animal from the small animal's primary terror that was proof against argument and reason alfenced both and paralized her brain. The clear, high, unceasing rhythm of the ton-going shock along her nerves in the way of exquisite terror. A strange guiding force broke the inertia of her body and worked a subtle change in her appearance. Her nostrils quivered. Her hearing became more acute. She faced the sound and was interned to repeat silently, warily. Her back touched the trunk of a great live oak. She spun around. Then she found herself climbing, reaching always for higher limbs, swinging herself up, panting—trembling. When she went back to the house, she crouched in the heavy foliage and peered down through the leaves and moss. They were nearer new, and the cry had accelerated until it was a taut form of sound. The heart one end in how body and that shortened with every second. The dogs had gotten Ned. He had been loose for two weeks after he had put Bluton. He would have got the same but for the day. The pack passed almost directly beneath her perch. She could scarce retain her hold upon the branches as she peered down. Then she saw it for what it was: the flash of a ball in many body with a bobbing white spot, and the�pere of yelping m人所 Slowly reason returned. They could not have found Gily yet. Nobody knew herself in hand and fought the weakness of fear. She became conscious of sunshine and light above, on the plates, on the ceiling. A shadow swept over her, and she raised her eyes. Scarce twenty years had passed, and the roundure of her belly—the blue-black Text by ROLFE DELLON Drawn by FRED B. WATSON Moreover, the first of Jack's martial abilities) arce while in this enterpris. He and the other were killed, voted, left him. This unfortunate affected her conditionably, and his unhappiness became manifestable. He was mct as lled lily, but wiping purposefully eastward. Then another purring sound of wings against air, and another flashed past with a soft purring sound of wings against air, turn her head and follow their flg to its deitiation. She knew he was over the eastward, over the eastward, over the spot where the island lay among the trees. They sailed in the formation of a waterpole, wide and among the trees, at the westward and while at the eastward and faster as it descended until the base disappeared among the trees. He sailed westward again and saw the air winging gently down from the cey at the western extremity of the sea. So Gilly had甩, he hadn't been afraid of the dark, after all. What he knew him into the open where the buzzards could find him and tell Pec Baggaw. that it was useless to proceed. The strength of her muscles that could carry her through the air was against the cunning of the dead. Gilly had proved that Grayson Her gaze was drawn back to the eastern skyline and the whirling collisions of snow. "And of sky it would be v sile if miles. Perhap already Gilly had been missed and searching parties were burrowing along the trail that she had been on." Suddenly, there, in the moment of acceptance of the inevitable, a miracle occurred. Somewhere in the inner depths of the woman's soul, in some remote and secret abiding place, a bolt snapped back, a door opened, and a new courage flooded her being. This was not merely the old force that had always fortified her against physical suffering. It was something radiant that shook through her body in a swift, clean ecstasy. It made her suddenly and astonishingly glad to be there; to wait expectant for a supreme moment of revelation that she knew was coming. All feeling of urgency left her. No need for speed now. No need even for Mamba. She herself would be sufficient for the event. A strange and beautiful anxiety lay across her mind like a shaft of light. She turned it this way and that, and many dark and obscure things were made plain to her. She knew that Mamba had been right about Lissa all the time, the she did not matter of herself, except that now, at last, she was going to give her child something of value; something that she could always remember. Squatting on her limb, with only sky above her and treets below, her mind turned on Mamba's plan for her, and she saw its great flaw. The white men would take her, and they would want to know everything by mind. She might try to hide Issa away in some dark corner where they could not find her, but she knew that would not avail. She had seen other Negroes try concealment, but Baggart and the other black men, so they would could dig and dance and circle until, at last, out if came. Then, suddenly, she was upon the answer. Her mind seized upon the idea, turned it over, discarded nonessentials, built logically, beautifully, completely. The moment had come. She was ready. It was past ten o'clock, and Davy wanted to shut up shop and go home. He was the commisary manager now and he frequently kept open until late hours, especially in fever and when he was in the folks around and the Negroes would gather and talk. Wentworth had agreed to the plan, and Davy had showed with pride that, like most of his ideas, it had a sound commercial value, the sales on "bounce" and the driving social hour amounted to a tidy sum. Now the commisary manager commenced to clear his premises by the simple process of moving among the boxes, stools and barrels upon which his customers were seated and dislodged them forcibly from their "Gh on home, yo' lazy niggers," he ordered. "What yup 'tis dis, is my name?" he called to a Negro who was standing in the doorway: "Hang up den shutters, Ben, den come on, me a man, but someone was about to enter, and Ben stopped asked to allow her grapes looked up, and there stood Baxter, very disheveled and appalledly and appalled, and her akira tucked up above the knees. Keen observers all, they were immediately aware of a change in the woman. They had known her as a rather silent person who upon occasion such, such as lodge things of suddenly is the other extreme of temperament and indulged in almost violent bursts of animal spirits. Now, looking into her face, they seemed heavily featureless, with a prop she conveyed an impression of smiling over the top of the other head Her eyes were wide and unusually bright, and as she crossed the room toward Davy there was immediately evident a new coordination of move- ments of the head and had made her appear almost majestic to the mystified onlookers. When she reached the high counter she turned her back to it, rested her sibows on it, and stood looking out over the heads of the Negroes, who had resumed their seats and were regarding her in watchful sile- lions. For a long moment she stood so She did not seem to realize that it was time to shut up the store and go home. She seemed to think that she had all the time in the world Finally, as though she were not speaking to them at all but to some one who stood at their backs, she put her foots on the foot to the other side of the kings killin' herself by what de white folks calls commit'n suicide? Before her, eyes showed white glints here and there. Heads turned as by a common impulse, then faced her quickly again. A new'n's voice said, "Put Gawd's ake, Baxter, don't talk that talk!" Silence. Then a man said, "Everybody know no nigger nigger kill herself."

Temple, Texas More Mileage At Less Cost JACKSON RECITES ORDER'S GROWTH, 1930 PROGRAM A. B. By G. W. JACKSON District Grand Master The Grand United Order of Old Fellows celebrated its "Golden Jubilee" at its last session of the grand lodge, and left a lasting impression on the minds of the public. The quest onts be asked about every concession the lodge has to originate. What did it come to do? How long has it long? Is it carrying out its purpose? What has it done to convince its community since it commenced operation? The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, in answer to the first question will say, that it is a fraternal institution organized in America over fifty years ago, and set up the first lodge in the city of New York. The public is prepared to say whether it is carrying out the purpose for which it was organized when its branches cover over 40 states in the union, and the island possessions of the republic. It has many hundred thousand members, and has spent several million dollars in extending relief to the needy of the organization. It has relieved many widows and orphans and cheered the hearts of decrepit and borrowing. It makes no apology for the work that it has done and is doing to give the people an honest business at the cheapest rate possible, and a business which the members share in, and can assist in developing. We invite the members, and the public to inspect our books, and visit our home office where the business of the order is carried on, and where our motto is "Efficiency, Neatness, Accurate and Honesty." The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows continues its drive for members in the last half of the year, in spring drive. Our local "drivers" for members never cease, and the doors of our local lodges are always open to persons who desire to get into a safe and sound business company. There are two purposes for which we claim existence, namely: the perpetuity of the original principles of friendship, love and truth; second, the building up of a permanent endowment fund for the protection of the widows and orphans of the order. We must always stress the fundamental principles of this order lest we lose our identity with Odd Fellowship. We are giving to the public three policies which we stress, and to which we especially solicit your consideration: $300, $500 and $1,000. See our agents and investigate. What the Order wishes to do in 1930: I—It wished to hold the cond'ence of the public by a straight-forward honest business administration of the affairs of the order. 2- It wishes to grow in stability and permanency. 3—We hope to announce soon a new department for juveniles. 4—We are planning to open the home for the old, dependent and disabled. Odd Fellows and Ruthen. 5—We ask for confidence and sup port. STARKS' WIDOW PASSED AWAY AT DALLAS ON LAST SUNDAY According to news received in Houston the week, Mrs. J. P.

I take this method in outlining my teams: a first team, second team, third team, and so on. I have to honorable mention. With no claim to perfection and with no mistakes that I might make, and with the limited information I have to act upon, I am attempting this task with the hope that high school football might be improved and that a greater interest might be manifested by the supporters, and that high schools in general, through their athletic activities, might present a greater magnetism to draw and to maintain throughout graduation the youth of the nation.

PARHAM- mathematics deficiency and reenter West Point." Incidentally, Mra. Parham has no idea that her boy has been discriminatory. "Did Alison show any weakness in mathematics in the grammar or high school," he said. "No, he did not," she replied, "he was good in all his subjects, but he found that his training in mathematics was good in all his subjects, but him for the demands made at West Point. He wrote that whatever differences were all on his own part." The mother claimed that he had a teacher through the fifth grade at Talboton, Georgian, and increased by the suggestion that Parham might have been made the victim of some scheme to prevent that he might not have been aware of it. to get him out that took out sixty-three white boys also!" she asked. Parham had not complained in any of his letters to her while he was in the academy, Mrs. Parham asserted. In August, she admitted, he was homesick. She thinks it was natural for him to be so. He was 18, the youngest of her three children, and he had never been away from home before. Outside of this reference to his homesickness, however, his mother insisted that his letters had all been jolly and full of the things he had been doing and enjoying. Even his letter written since his departure from the academy was jolly, she stated. "Last summer before school opened he wrote us all about the hikes they were taking and the good times they had," she explained. "He said that he was being treated just like anybody else. Later he described his trips to Boston, Hartford and New York with the army football team. He wrote that he had a grand time." Mrs. Parham admitted that she and her son were sensible of the fact that Negroes are not wanted at West Point, but even realising that, Parham had not stated that he had found evidence of inhumanity there. It is rather well-known that mathematics and French are the particular subjects that he studied. Point and there are professional schools which make a business of preparing appointees to meet these tests. He received a letter of证实的 advertising matter from one of these schools soliciting his enrollment, and he followed it up, roll although he had friends who thought he should be a teacher.

Hawkins, which is reputed to have ex-dotted for a long period, broke out into the open this week when Joseph Clark Baldwin, a white alderman, was finally accepted by the board of aldermen as the Republican minority leader. It was known before last November that Moore and Hawkins, both of whom were re-elected, were not friendly toward each other, but when it became apparent that there was an opportunity for one of them to become the minority leader, with a salary increase of $2,500, it was hoped by their friends that they would come together. They faced a situation where the minority leader had to be chosen from four Republican aldermen, two colored and two white. The colored men had the advantage of seniority. In event of a choice of purely racial lines, either white man or either Negro would have had two votes, and seniority would have decided the tie in favor of the Negro. Moore said he did not want the job because he did not have the time and because he is an insurgent Republican, but Hawkins was frankly attest it. He did not get it. That means The upshot of the matter has been to increase the bitterness between the two men to the point of its becoming common gossip and their own admissions or denials that they do or do not speak to each other. At a small meeting during the week, Hawkins made charges which Moore said were false and Hawkins incensed by the challenge of his veracity, declared that he would make an object lesson of Moore if it were not for the latter's years. Moore is seventy-three. Incidently, while the two of them are charging and discharging, speaking and not speaking, resurging and insurging, the white man has the job and the extra dollars.

The Bears experienced a little trouble getting started, but this was due to the fact that weather has interfered with their practices, which, on account of limited facilities, are downout doors. Hcpson and Thilly were the high point men running up 19 and 18 respectively. Wright and Bridlewater were the stars of the Jarvis quintet. Although it has been rumored that Bishop would not present a strong view this season because of the loss of three first string men by graduation and other causes, the showing of the Bears in this game revealed the fact that Coach A. W. M贡ford has a sustainable amount of material from which he should be able to mold a winning aggregation. It will be remembered that the Bears had the tournament sewed up last year, but allowed over-confidence to creep in and they lost to Prairie View. A vastly inferior team. As it was Blowed out for the chelonship in the last year, the Bishop bears the Wiley Refoctory. This game will be the first conference game of the season for the Bears. KNOXVILLE TAKES SERIES FROM FISK Knoxville, Tenn.—Knoxville College, opening her inter-collegiate basketball schedule, defeated Fish University here last week-end in two games that were exciting from start to finish. Scores of 31-20 and 25-15 were played by the Knoxville cagers against the Flakes, who seemed incapable of coping with the repeated runhes of Coach Hawkins' men. For Knoxville Eugene Johnson and Captain Fanford were the big scorers. Johnson scored a total of 21 points in the two games and Castain Sanford followed close behind with 18 points to his credit. The work of Needham, Lewis, Render and Hubbard was also good, with close guarding and fast floor work. Whedbee and Yost played hardback for Pink and much of the credit for the defense which Pink was able to put up must go to them. The Pink team simply had more than it could handle in the Knoxville smooth-operating machine and could only put up a mediocre defense to the onslaughts of the garnet and blue basketeers. ST.

Minors of today have super-human tasks to perform of God and then trained in theology, but they must have special training in executive and administrative Their first duty, however, is to preach the gospel. To make their work effective they must know how to plan, adapt, manage, direct and develop a program of Christian service. They must be city preachers and, at the same time, gospel farmers. They must plow the field, plant the seed, and cultivate the crop. It requires intelligence, technical training, consecration, industry, love, sanctified common sense and vision to do it. The minister stands in a large place of opportunity and obligation, and no ordinary man can stand there. Character is the first qualification, without that the minister is a menace. We have thousands of men who say that God called them to preach. Well, we will have to take their word for it.

JACKSON --- --- HALP ME-GROWN #TURTED-DULL LONG-AUXEUJANT WHERE IS THE LOVE OF A LUXURY MAN? a nice it in God's business to do the business men would prepare men, it might be their business to call the 'called' to pre-vent. The early miners among Negroes had the skill which was a 'f ne subjugate for the white people' to marvelous men. Some of there are still go'ng on gloriously, but the black people do not belooh who lack everything exe lence lume. Instead of going to the church, they output and wade around misprespe-ress the Lord. They should not be ready to preach until they are prepared. The day has come when ministers who are trained in Hebrew, Greek and other church management. Not many churches are able to employ assistant pastors. Many churches do not need them and need good executives—not men who want to run everyone themselves out of the work," place responsibility, and get results. In this day when we are so dependent and sensitive to let them carry on the work of the church, it develops preachers would give the laymen more def nite work to do the preachers would not have so much trouble, and be able to do or they certainly will work on the preacher. Therefore, it is not the layman's business to run the church, but it is his business to help. But it forget—while we are talking about training and trustees who cannot read and train as well as the preachers. Dumb dreads have gone out of style, and trustees who cannot read and train as well have gone out of style. Our churches are too loosely organized and that is why so many members are running wild. If the ministers were practical executives this condition would not prevail. Many of our preachers like to be the whole show in their churches. They do everything from raising the collection to raising sand. That is the kind of usurpation that will result in bad management and the reason why churches run down on the minister or run the minister down. The fact of the matter is that when it comes to the work that is done by the pastor, the average church gets a great deal more than it pays for. This, of course, is partly the preacher's fault. In too many of our churches the preacher is the lawyer, doctor, real estate dealer, teacher, editor, social worker, taxi driver, architect, builder, banker, special adviser, politician and preacher—thirteen in one. He is consulted about everything and tries to dabble in everything. A jack of all trades in the pulpit is usually a "jackleg." Every preacher should be interested in community welfare, but no man can fill thirteen positions without running into some kind of bad luck in handling twelve of them.

The condition of the individual, has a determining effect on the kind of diet necessary for good health. The greatest cause of dental defects in our modern day is due to the lack of good teeth, which do not give the teeth and gum enough exercise. If our diet consisted of more fibre, dental defects would be reduced; consequently ill health would be also reduced. We have often heard it said that when we eat too much we us what we are. There certainly is a bodily structure of our diet upon all bodily structures. But in this age of speed, even our diet is too suffer.

INTERNATIONAL AND NATIONAL SUBJECTS—Accepting and Following the Highly People, and ADULT SUBJECTS—Accepting and Following the Highly People, and ADULT SUBJECTS 1. The Characteristics of the Subjects of the Kingdom (vv. 1-12) These characteristics are set forth in the following: 1. The consciousness of spiritual poverty (v. 3). 2. "Fear in spirit" means to come to fear of spirit in self as a spirit of spiritual beggery. 3. A profound belief because of the spiritual poverty (v. 4). 4. The mourning here is because of the keen consciousness of guilt before as a spirit of spiritual beggery. 5. A nubilable submission to God's will (v. 5). 6. The outgrowth of mourning over spiritual impoverishment. 4. An intense longing to conform to the laws of the kingdom (v. 6). The one who has received the rightiness of Christ as a free gift follows after the purity of character himself in deeds of righteousness. 5. Merciful (v. 7). The subjects of the kingdom how take on the character of the King Because of the mercifulness of Christ, His followers will be merciful. 6. Purity of heart (v. 8). Since the King is absolutely pure, the subjects who enjoy fellowship with Him must have heart purity. 7. Pencemakers (v. 9). The subjects of His kingdom, not only have peace, but follow after that which makes for peace. 8. Suffering for Christ's sake (v. 10). The world hated Christ, the King; therefore those who reflect His spirit in their lives shall suffer persecution (II. Tim. 8:15). 9. Suffer reproach (v. 11). To have all manner of evil spoken against us for Christ's sake is an occasion for glorying. 11. The Responsibilities of the Subjects of the Kingdom (v. 13-18). The world is in utter darkness because of its corruption. The subjects of the kingdom are to live such lives as to purify and enlighten. Their responsibilities are set forth under the figures of salt and light. 1. To are the salt of the earth (v. 15). The properties of salt are (1) Penetrating (2) Purifying (3) Preserving Since salt only preserves and purifies in the measure that it penetrates, so Christians only as they enter into the life of the world can preserve it from decay. 2. 'Are they the light of the world' (v. 14). 3. 'The world is cold and dark. In this darkness the devil has set my pet falls and the subjects of the kingdom should so live as to prevent the unary frightening. Ewes of the Kingdom (v. 20, 40). 4. 'As to deaths of righteousness' (v. 20). 5. 'The deaths of the subjects or the beings coming from Christian nations'. 6. 'As to anacity of life' (v. 21, 28). 7. 'The duty of the subject of the kingdom is to conserve and maintain his anger in the heart of the anger in heart of the heart' (v. 22). 2. As to originated life (vv. 27-32) The family is the unit of society. The two-week size against the family are (1) Adultery, (2) Divorce. 4. As to oaths (vv. 33-37). Whatever is more than the simple form of affirmation or denial comes of evil. 5. As to behavior toward those who do not recognize the law of the kingdom (vv. 35-48). (1) Not revengible (vv. 30-40). Turning the other cheek after being smilled, means, after one insult, permit another without revengance (2). Willingness to do more than is required (v. 47). It compelled to go out, to be the most compelling you. (3) Be charitable (v. 42). Our hearts should always be open ready to give to all. (4) Love enemies (vv. 45-48). Love to them consists in a Blessing them that curse us. Doing good to them that have us. Doing for those who despitefully use us. Consciousness of Duty In every heart there is a consciousness of some duty or other required of it; that is the will of fied. He that would be saved must get up and do that will—if it is but to sweep a room or make an apology, or pay a debt—George MacDonald. Entering Heaven's Gate Heaven's Gate is a hill arched as knight palace; they that enter there must get upon their knoe- d—Daniel Webster. PARDONED PRISONER IN AGAIN Liberty. Miss.-(ANP)-A. A. A. Cocky, Negro, recipient of one of Davorc's Biblo's holiday pardons, and has had his narcissism only one time with forgery. Aycock canned a bag-sheek on the Library-Gloster cash another it is alleged. Aycock had been a trusty for eight or nine years and could not pay his fist, having been convicted for possessing "Sure, do whole ting." "Well, do sure that we two hundred in were. That'll be two dollars." With a broad gesture Hagar lifted the jar, withdrew the stepper, and poured the contents in a castrat of red white out over the counter. "Help yo'selves," she invited. "An now dat keg ob bounce. How much dat?" Dary, in an inerodulous voice, opined that three dollars would pay for it. "You n'ggers get to dat keg and fill yo'selves up," she commanded. "Ah all de time been wanting to gib yo's a party, but Ah ain't had no free money till now." "I know they withdrew in the recession of the keg, and Hagar stood looking after them with something of her old childlike wonder in her smile. She turned back toward Davy. "Poor ole Baxter," she mused. "Ah done keep you waitin' a long but we quit now. An Ah ain't done so bad by yo's name." Then she spoke drectly to Davy: "What he all come to, Son?" He computed the account at six dollars and a quarter. "I know," she started a bill, and, as he took it, she said with a spurt of fierce and uncontrollable exultation in her voice: "Don't gimme de change, Son. Take um to de do an' t'row um far an high. Ah's done we'll be on the Alh's free now," then after an almost imperceptible hastation, added, "free as Gawd." The amazed youth looked up, but already the mood had passed. It was as though the Baxter whom he had known, and even the strange creature who had been there a moment before, had gone quietly out and she had a small�ice of interest. "And I can't be so much to be command," "Now get a pen n't paper, and take down what Ah say. Time's passin' an' Ah got to be gettin' along soon." She raised her voice and called, "Come here, all yo' niggers, Ah want yo' to swear to's写ritn' Ah's goin' to gib Davy." When he was ready she dictated in a clear, steady voice, never hesitating, for a word, retarded only by the deliberation of the writer: "Las night Ah strangle Billy Blution to deat' wid my two han." Ah kill um 'cause he use always tub be my man, an he git sick ob me an't grow me way. Dere ain't nobody dere but, me when Ah kill um. Dere ain't nobody know nuttin' bout um 'cep me. Da'at' all. Now sign um Baxter's gun's goin's de pen so's Ah can make do mark." The Negroes stood forgling at her petrified into attitudes of incredulity, horror, fear. Davy leaned over the paper like an automaton that had run down its motive power, causing while the pen point hovered over the sheet. Hagar stamped her foot impatiently, and on and sign um, she commended. De Time's close now, an Ah set to go. A woman broke through the circle, pushing the paralized Negroes to right and left. It was old Vina. She was as frightened as anyone, but she had courage. She laid hold upon Baxter's arm and pulled her around. "Wake up, gas, wake up an' talk de trut," she pleaded. "Dere ain't been a night since yo' come here date yo' ain't sleep all night in my room." She turned to the gaping crowd. "Don't yo' b'blebe she. Yo' niggers — ain't yo' see she ain't right in she head?" Baxter brushed the old woman away like a fly. She was shaken by a storm of passion that flung the circle from her like physical force. They backed away, knowing at last that their first impression when she had entered was right. Baxter had lost her wits. She glared at them and stamped thunderously upon the floor. "Ah's talking to trut," she shouted, "an' let any pusson in dis shop say Ah ain't. Ah's goin' make um sorry 'til he done dead." He spun around again on Dawn and shocked him into action. "Write the letters on the paper and the letters fall from its point in jerky succession: 'B A X T E R.

She dropped the pen, and in the dead silence of the room it�ing a sharp, clear note as it struck the counter. Then she turned, and the watchers saw that her passion had passed and she again wore the odd aleness of expression with which she had entered. She turned her gaze to the door with its square of misty moonlight night. "De time's come," she said. "So long she had been." look, everybody. For a moment they saw her, a huge black silhouette set an frosted silver; then she was gone. Maum Vins's scream cut the silence and losed the Negroes from their frances. "For Gawd sake, stop dat gal" she shrilled. "She out she head, an she got no do, she hams." The man, a lively and strong the doway an scattered out on the pizza. Only the night was out there; was and, tranquil it lay upon the square of white sand, the pine forests. Above them it was an infundation of moonstruck mist; its utter silence not even broken by the whispers of a star. They waited be wildered, not knowing what it to do next. Suddenly from the river came the loud bark of a dog, a single shout, then a confused babel of voices. The Negroes broke into a sun, and presently they crowded out on the narrow sea. Seized the pier, seeming to strain its spars upward, lay a schooner that had been moored there the day before. Its crew were already at the pier head gesticulating and pointing downward. All afternoon the September spring tide had been pumping its vast burial of the sea. The port was in the land of the sea, and the low flat river lands, nurturing, porous marshes and setting the grass tops awash, piling incalculable tons of brine into salt creeks, brimming secret legumes. Now the great heart that lay somewhere out beyond the moon turned from systole to distole and called it On the pile head this Nigro stood in silence and looked down. There were three men behind them, so close they could have reached down and touched it, the river drummed under the piles.

SCHUYLER Special Contributor, New York City Editor Houston Informer: On December 17th I received a letter from a friend in Baltimore who put to me a question as follows: “From some of the articles that have appeared in several Negro news-news, it is not just the change of the cause of the N. A. A. C. P. Is not this a change—if not a reversal—of your former position on this organization?” Since there may be many other people throughout the country asking about the long-term question in view of the fact that I have been urging that Negroes give a larger measure of support to this worthy organization, I wish here to append my answer to this friend, B. J. Davis, Jr., just as I wrote it and without any change: I note your question and make haste to reply that it is not. Criticism is not necessarily condemnation. I first joined the N. A. A. C. P. in 1921 in Syracuse, N. Y., as I believe the records of that branch will show. And while I have not been a� con- I have been an程 never expressed opposition or anfag- onism to the work being done by that organization. I have criticized and the N. A. A. C. P. as well as its fail- up to do so in things, but I have always emphasized the necessity of the work it does and urged Negroes to join it and support it. "In order to answer your question fairly, I have taken the time to go over the clippings of my column 'Views and Reviews' in the Pittsburgh Courier from November, 1924, to the present time just to see how many times I have mentioned the N. A. A. C. P. and what my attitude has been. I find that in the more than five years that I have been writing this weekly column, I have mentioned the N. A. A. C. P. less than 20 times. Specifically, 17 times. In chronological order are brief summaries of the principal comments I have made on this organization:" Fall 1924: Criticized Spingarn Medal awards. "Jan. 1925: Referred to it as militant organization deserying of support." *Aug. 1925; Criticized Brown Baby Boneets and fa lure to form con- cooperative, labor union, ete. *Sept. 1925; Advised Negroes to work in the farm and took so severely to task for not doing. *Sept. 1925; Advised spending of five or ten mill on dollars with the N.

THE JEWISH MOVEMENT Whatever one may think of the Jews or of the movement for a Jewish homeland in Palestine, one cannot help but be impressed by the marines in which both Zionists and anti-Zionists have rallied to the support of their kinsmen, lately smashed by the inflamed Arab populism of these countries. The bitterness of the proposed to the idea of Zionism, have gone down in their pockets and contributed a large sum for the rehabilitation of the destroyed Jewish communities and the succeor of the homeless. From the present time, the估计 are the most fanatical prejudices, the Jews has been disciplined like a Spartan soldier. He knows that old II. W. W. slogan well: "An injury to one is an injury to all." Because he is in America and he works as a soldier, he is not limited to the few in Romania, he does not sit back indifferently with a mere grimace of disapproval. No, he financially supports the organizations that are fighting the battles of his people everywhere. If there is a pogrom in Poland, June 1984, the National Institute has the caseminery at hand to protest to the various Europeans powers and to send delegations to our own state department demanding that something be done. Such protest may not stop the pogrom but that they have not been a money and are ready to fight. As a consequence pogroms grow fewer and fewer. The Jews, who total much less than nine millions, probably spend ten times more of defense and group advancements than the world.

Editorial HOUSTON SAMBOS SEE MIDNIGHT SHOW! Those six hundred odd Negroes, who considered themselves fortunate and honored by entering and departing from a back door of a white theatre Thursday night of last week, merely to see an all-Negro talkie, "Hallejushu" ought to find some soiree in the city, and disregard the Negro race, and to encourage the dominant race to regard and treat the race as children, on perhaps better stated, as ignorant "darkies" and silly "miggers." How any self-respecting Negro could so stifly his manhood by such conduct, the same picture is to be offered the race at one of its own local playhouses (and at a cheaper price), is too much for The Informer to fathom. Perhaps these squawkers, the negroians, who stood in line at the front of this film of this white theatre, waiting to be admitted to a "before day" special showing of this all-Negro sound picture, were laboring under the impression that the colored theatre's showing of this film would be inferior to the white theatre's; or that the Lincoln would delete certain parts of this talkie. Or maybe they considered themselves highly honored by being permitted to enter this white playhouse and sit on the first floor, or that they would employ a back door and pay a stiff price for this "special privilege." Isn't it funny how some of our people reason and what they so often consider "special honor"? All of which reminds us of a joke told by a Negro, who said that he was the only person of color that the governor of a certain state would permit to attend, and here is what the chief magistrate of that state said to the Negro in question: "Get out of the way, nigerer, and let me pass." It is time for Houston Negroes to cease becoming peeved and insulted when some member of the other race refers to them as "boys" and "girls," for too often our conduct is so silly and childish that we impress other races that our mentality is below that of children. These races are not judged and rated by what they proclaim, but rather by what they do or fail to do; and, measured by this standard, those six hundred odd Negroes, who slipped into that white playhouse at midnight, proved themselves typical Samboes, and as utterly void of those frets traits and characteristics which distinguish red-blooded and self-respecting races from those racial groups who have no such attributes and sensibilities. The Informer knows that some of these blacks will contend that they were spending their own money, that they are free and have the right to do as they please, but this type of reasoning is occa- ciously abused; for no Negro has a right to so conduct himself as to bring reproach upon and disgrace to himself, his family and his race. The criminal Negro has the same logic and thus he proceeds to commit crimes, and as a result the entire race is held up to the world as being vicious, bestial and unworthy of the rights and privileges exercised and enjoyed by other intelligent and civilized races in this country. In fact, no person or race is free as long as he or it is jim-crow- ness, and as a result the entire race is held up to use side and back door entrances to white theaters. Only slaves are treated thus, and only slaves or nincompoops will submit to and endure such treatment when there is no occasion or justification for so doing. As long as any Negroes are willing to expose themselves to jim-crowm, humiliation, discrimination and other inequalities and, by no doing, subject other members of the race to the same flius and juists, just so long will the entire race be regarded and condemned. What we do in this and other respects speaks in such voiciferous tones that other races can not hear our preachments about the fine traits and good qualities of the race. The Southern philosophy concerning the Negro is that the worse the black is treated, the better he likes it and the more he admires the person or persons who mistreat him. The Negro is not the only one when it says that "by their fruits ye shall know them;" and if the Houston Negro is to be judged and appraised by his fruit (in the light of the Sambo stunt staged last week at a local white playhouse by over six hundred members of the race), then our racial rating will be very low and other races will continue to look upon us with disdain, disfavor and contumely. We will not be pleased than pleasures, and an unprincipled race must content itself in the role of doormat and footcollar for principled races; and much of the cry and hula-balo raised about "race rights" will fall upon deaf ears and unsympathetic hearts, for no race has ever come into full fruition by adopting and pursuing a pusseyhood policy. Yes, over six hundred Houston Sambs saw a special midnight show at a white theatre but their act did much to lower them to the level of a black person and people and races; and further demonstrated the patent fact that the Negro (generally speaking) has not learned his first lesson in race building and self-respect. INSURGENT ODD FELLOWS LOSE FIGHT According to information received here from Philadelphia, the committee of management of the Grand Union Order of Odd Fellows, at its recent session, dismissed the charges of "irregularity" preferred by a bunch of disgruntled and disappointed delegates to the grand master. The basis for filling these charges was predicated on the fact that neither the grand master nor deputy grand master presided THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, JANUARY 25, 1930 during the submission of annual reports of officers and the biennial election of the official family, and that the Ruthites were permitted to vote with the Odd Fellows in joint session; this first point of order having been raised at the Island City session by a grand lodge representative at that time. The point of order was not well taken, for the reason that the grand lodge was democratic and had a right, through its grand master, to designate any Odd Fellow to preside over any session of the grand lodge. Instead of appealing to the house as a result of the presiding officer's decision, this "inurgent," who had been turned down, it is alleged, by the official family of the order on a certain proposition and who has been advocating the cause of some losing power in the government, to be then and there that he would appeal his contention to the committee of management and thus invalidate all action taken at the Galveston grand session. Rallying to his cause and standards a few disgruntled member in Houston and other points in the state; with a scurrilous and muckraking sheet taking up the cudgel and dealing out foul words, he was accused of insulting "inurgent" posed as a righteous crusader and freely predicted, it is stated, that his appeal would wrank have to the Jackson administration in this jurisdiction. The grand master and his cabinet have been held up to the reading public and fraternal world as "tyrants," "dictators" and "crooks," but the recent action of the highest tribunal in the state has been approved by the procedure at Galveston and approves the course pursued by the grand master in his official actions at the golden jubilee session. The answer to the charges filed by this "insurgent boc" was presented to the committee of management in writing by Judge J. Alston Atkins of Houston, district grand attorney who was elevated to his present post at the Island City meeting, and the tribunal of last resort in the order has sustained every contention of the local attorney, who is an honor graduate of Yale University to the School. Motivated by an apparent inmate and insinuable desire to follow a destructive and obstructive program and to demonstrate their supposed smartness and satureness, too many members of the Negro race are devoting their time and what little talent they think they possess, in efforts to destroy and undermine racial leadership and to retard the progress and advancement of the race. Righteous causes should always have defenders and champions, but so much of our energy is exerted in the wrong direction that they have been used to undermine the South. Instead of harnessing our forces and waging a well-organized fight against injustices and inequalities which are heaped upon the race, and which hamper us in the full and free employment of our inherent and constitutional rights as American citizens, we spend most of our time in an internecine struggle and internal wrangling inimical to our best interests. We have seen colored football teams advance the ball to their opponents' five-yard line and then take time to argue, debate and fuss over which player will be given the ball in the final effort. We have seen the players in the game wrestle these gridiron aggregations not only lose their chance to score by such tactics, but lose the ball and the game as a result. Insurgents are all right in their places and at the proper time, but they ought to know when to "surge" and when not to "surge." Racially speaking, our trouble seems to be that we are zigging when we ought to be zagging and zagging when we ought to be zigging. Selah! LOCAL SUFFERERS NEED RELIEF As a result of the unprecedented cold weather which has enveloped this city and section during the past two months, there are many people in dire need of warm clothing, bedding, fuel and food, and the Houston Social Service Bureau, which looks after such appeals, has sent out a Macedonian cry for help. Included in this large number of sufferers are many Negroes, and it is up to the members of our race in this community to respond to this appeal and contribute what they can toward the relief of such suffering. They come to suffer humanity, racial lines and denominational ties to be obliterated, and all charitably inclined people should join hands in such a worthy and humanitarian movement. Because of industrial opportunities and ordinary fine climatic conditions, Houston has become a mecca for thousands in search of work and a place in which to live, and the recent cold spell has caught many of these people, as well as older residents, in dire circumstances. It is not great because of its wealth, per se, but rather because of its spirit and civic heart; "for the gift without the giver is bare." Houston Negroes have been the recipients of much charity and philanthropy, and it is time that we reciprocate and assume our responsibilities along charitable lines in a more pronounced manner. Get in touch with the office of the Houston Social Service Bureau, located in the Junior City Auditorium, 512 Milam Street and do your part in helping to provide some degree of comfort to suffering humanity in this city. Here is one cause where "it is more to bless than to re- ceive" the liberal soul will wax fat" as a result of such contribu- tions. "STANDIN' IN NEED OF PRAYER" There is a Negro spiritual whose lines run something like this: "Taint my brother, but it's me, O Lord, standin' in need of prayer!" The Informer was reminded of this song when we saw news release recently sent out by the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, Washington, D. C., in which it was stated that Negroes not only oppose the teaching of their own history in their own schools, but that they are the greatest difficulty and obstacle in this speech. The foremost race are those who teach their past to their posterity, and the Negro has an "inferiority complex" largely because he knows so little of his past or present history. There are many so-called Negro educators who are not on speaking terms with any worthwhile achievements of the race, and what little they know about their own race is garnered from reading publications produced by other races. It is all right to study the history and read about the accomplishments of other races, but we should also know something about ourselves; for if a man is to be successful, he must know himself and the same thing holds true regarding races. The Negro has no right to be ashamed of his past history, and the members of the race who are opposing the teaching of Negro history in Negro schools are doing their race and society an important legacy. If the history association's conclusion is borne out by the facts in the case, then paraphrasing the lines of the Negro spiritual quoted above, "Taint de other races, but it's us, O Lord, standin' in need of prayer!"

Homely Philosophy By Georgis Douglas Johnson THE THINGS WE FEAR The things we fear rarely come to pass and if they do we can bear them. The things we fear rarely come to trouble, makes it appear mountain-hill; fear steals our courage. The things we fear rarely come to sink. By conquering fear, we can conquer ourselves and thus may advance. THE MARRIAGE BAR THE MARRIAGE BAR Senator Capper of Kansas, has just introduced in the senate a bill providing for national regulation of marriage and divorce. On broad grounds the mere statement of the need for such a law carries conviction of its authoritative family fabric and the undermining of the moral fiber threatens early social decay. The greatest issue before mankind today is not the question of race adjustment nor the production and distortion of wealth, momentous as these issues are, but the authoritative basis of modern economic, industrial, intellectual and social demands. The whole scientific, political, religious and social world has been reconstructed in modern times; but we have made no progress in marital relations since the days of Isaac and Rebecca and have fairly adjusted to an agricultural life of early times breaks down minerally in face of an urbanized mechanical civilization. That failure is manifested by the fact that one-sixth of marriages ultimate in divorce, which indicates at least twice as many marriages as ever, Perhaps the greatest minds in the world today are giving attention to this issue as to no other. From the standpoint of government, it is absurd to have forty-eight different states, each grappling with the problem in its own jurisdiction. Effectiveness can be effected only through federal supervision and control. It is the irony of the Negro's权 that the formulas which apply to the general life fail to autil his particular case. The Negro is undoubtedly the greatest victim of inadequate marriages and stands most in need of formal assistance. And yet he must look with fear and trembling upon any and every attempt to fasten such laws upon our federal statute books. The reason is painfully simple. In the present example of the American mind, any such application will in all human probability antagonize anti-antisecession provision. The same Senator Capper, who is our good friend and intends us no harm, introduced a proposed eugenic law several years ago which had hidden between the lines the forbidance of married persons. When this hidden provision was called to his attention, he explained that he had introduced the bill by request and was not aware that it contained the item complained of provision. Senator Blease of South Carolina keeps such a measure constant, and if any measure prohibiting racial inter-marriage ever comes to a vote in either house of congress, it would probably pass by an overwhelming majority. Twenty-nine states already forbid racial inter-marriage. Senator Cappus would in all likelihood vote in harmony with the regulations of their own states. Sentiment on this question is well nigh unanimous in the nineteen states which have not enacted the sentiment into law. On the slightest provocation, such as the assault of several states against several state legislatures to the attempt to enact such laws. These attempts have been usually frustrated, not on the direct issue, but by showing that such laws were not necessary. On one occasion the house of representatives passed a such measure against unanimous vote. We were able to defeat it in the senate, not by direct attack, but by the gumshoe method. We were advised by the gumshoe method on the inside, that if the issue ever came to a vote, no power on earth could stop its passage. The same sentiment prevailed as then, perhaps somewhat intensified. Why should the Negro be so deeply concerned in the national marriage bar? There is neither eagerness nor expectation of intermarriage or amalgamation. Existing laws and laws in the country prevent any considerable number of cases. Social sensibilities are intensely concerned on both sides of the line. Illegitimate, either within the race or across the race line, is a rapidly diminishing quantity. There always will be rare instances of personal mutual attractions will defy public opinion and even the law; but these will represent rare instances without any social importance. But the Negro must protest with all of the power within him against setting up a marriage bar, which is the beaten notion, by national laws. The world are based upon occupational levels and the marriage bar. The weaker sex of the weaker race are always made the victim of the juxtaposition of two races.
