SPRING MUSIC FESTIVAL
PROPOSED GOODWILL TOUR
SCHOOL TRUSTEES ELECTION
FLOWERS FOR THE LIVING
Next Tuesday night, April 5
promptly at $25 o'clock, the fifth
spring musical festival, presented an
entertainment program for the Club,
will be given at the City Auditorium,
at which time music lovers of
this city and section are assured a
spectacle. According to the directors of
the club, P. O. Smith, there will be
a concert with the festival next Tuesday
night, and the program will be no vague
description, but should be pleased satisfied.
In short, to paraphrase the advertising
slogan of a certain brand of
sunglasses, this musical festival
the last note.
Hereof this musical organization
has placed a Negro welfare agency
the principal beneficiary
of the festival, annual concerts, but this year the clubs
plans to employ the money to create
a trip for the organization to the National Association of Negro Musicians
in Chicago during August.
If sufficient funds are realized from this festival for this purpose (and it will be used for the unanticipated unselfish and humanitarian service this club has rendered in Houston and the United States, and unanticipated and whole-hearted support of both races in making this proposed festival a success), plans to attend the National Negro Business League at Detroit, during the 1931 session, would help to land the 1931 session of the league for "Heavenly Houston." This organization, founded by the founder of the Negro Business League in Washington and presided over by the chairman of theton, Mr. Washington is successor both the University Institute and as titular chairman of the national meeting in Texas, and the national meeting in Houston, where he gave on record recording Houston as host for the 1931 session. In other words, the club plans to plan a conference on the proposed trip, which will make with the purpose of making money, but with the favorable sentiment for our community. Never before in the history of this country, North or South, East or West, the Negro musical and Negro musical organization essayed such a goodwill tour in the interest of the unanticipated unselfish and humanitarian program next Tuesday evening in Houston and assist the club to attain its goal.
The voters of the Houston Independent School District will be called upon Saturday, April 6 to elect candidates who will serve for the next two years. The eight candidates in the field, four from the first two, four being in the race for the first three. The four members seeking reelection are: Dr. Ray K. Day, D.K. C. Barkley, W. B. Bates, Mrs. B. F. Gossett. Those seeking the office for the first time are: B. P. Fans, Dale C. Barkley, B. P. Bates and Mrs. W. Sackett. While information such, this information thinks that the four members seeking reelection deserve to be maintained on the local education. Whether you think this way or not, you should cast your ballot for four of these eight candidates. All qualified voters and the polls will be open from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. in public schools in the forefront by voting for the four best qualified candidates in the race. This columnist is deeply indebted to Guess Floral Company, 314 McGowen Street, presented to us last week. Undoubtedly, Mr. Comie Guesse, progressive flower shop, believes in the living for as well as the dogs.
We rather relish the idea of receiving some of our flowers while we are in the garden. We are accustomed to scented aromas of the flowers, whether in the form of flower bouquets or words of encouragement. The company is one concern which has no racial barriers and deserves the support and patronage of the flowers for any and all occasions.

Never before in the history of any city, North or South, has any Negro musical organization essayed a concert tour for the specific purpose of advertising a city, and every civic-minded Houstonian should be glad to help make this proposed goodwill trip a reality.
This club is not a professional musical organization, but is composed of busy colored citizens—all Houstonians—who are intensely interested in the city's welfare. Rated as the premier

Chicago. III.—(ANP)—To reduce the mortality among children in this city, the Provident Hospital and Training School has added a children's clinic where those in need of medical treatment may receive the same without cost.
This clinic, which was made possible through the generosity of the Rosenwald Fund, is located in the annex of the present hospital building and is fully equipped and is manned by a competent staff of specialists under the direction of Dr. W.-H. Maddox; nationally known pediatrician. In addition to the medical staff is a staff of social workers and file clerks and stenographers.
Dr. A. H. Kegel, city health commissioner, was the principal speaker at the formal opening of the clinic which was held Wednesday afternoon. The commissioner referred to the need of such work especially on the southside, declaring that the high mortality rate was due almost wholly to the lack of this kind of work in the particular election.
The plans for the Greater Provident Hospital and Training School which was made possible some weeks ago when a drive for $3,000,000 was closed with glowing success, were outlined by A. L. Jackson, president of the board of trustees.

tious "fall sentence," for taking $100,000, we predicted that it would be practically impossible ever to convict Doheny, even if he should ever be brought to trail; for while Albert B. is associated with Fall (fall), Edward L. has the Do(dough)heny.
Now here's a new puzzle, even for the lawyers: Edward delivered and Albert received $100,000. Everybody admits that, even Edward and Albert. It is therefore legally, judicially and solemnly decided that Albert is guilty of "taking a bribe" and that Edward is teetotally innocent of "giving a bribe." Law administrators have done a lot of queer things, in the history of the world, and this is one of the queerest. How in a case of mutual activity like this, one man could be guilty and the other man innocent, is a little crossword puzzle which, we predict, not even the lawyers will be able to work out between now and election time.
There are some crimes of which two people might be accused together, and of which one might be adjudged innocent: If two persons are accused of murder, or theft, or arson, the court and the judges may find that, while one is guilty, the other is actually innocent. Also a man might properly be convicted of offering a bribe, while the other fellow might be innocent of taking it—for he might not take it. But whenever a person is convicted of "taking" a bribe, then everybody (except lawyers and judges) must understand that the "giving" of the bribe is absolutely, even though corollary, established. Otherwise, it would be just as sensible to convict A. of committing adultery with B—and then to decide that B is entirely innocent of committing adultery with A. But that is absurd; we may establish rape or criminal attack in one party, but we can only establish adultery in two—the two. Also we may establish the offering of a bribe without establishing the taking of a bribe; but God and ten-year-old humans can easily understand that we cannot establish the taking of a

bribe without at the same time establishing the giving of a bribe.
If Albert B. Fall "took" this money from Edward L. Doheny, without the act and will of the latter, then Fall should not have been tried and convicted for taking a brite but for committing highway robbery.
Now, the only way in the world to justify the results of this second trial (of Doheny) is to attack and overthrow the results of the first trial (of Fall). The only way out is to say that the courts made a mistake against Fall and that he did not take a bribe.
All that patriotism poppycock had nothing to do with it. Doheny did not have to take anything in Hawaii to keep the Japanese from taking it. Uncle Sam controls Hawaii—and the Japanese could take anything away from Doheny at least as easily as they could hope to take it away from Uncle Sam. Just because an oil station was not sold to Doheny, was no reason why the United States would have been compelled (or even disposed) to sell it to Japan or to Japanese.
Fall was convicted of getting away wrongfully with $100,000; and Doheny was tried on the charge of trying to get away wrongfully with about $100,000,000 through the medium of this $100,000. Fall stands at the little end of this money-business. Is the giver more immune than the taker—the big more immune than the little—the rich more immune than the poor? Is the guilt of stealing in inverse ratio to the amounts stolen? Either must we answer these questions in the affirmative, or we must conclude that Albert B. Fall is also innocent.
SUGGESTING A "NATIONAL ANTHEM"
Members of the congress of the United States have been interested in the prospect of adopting a "National Anthem" officially and by law. "The Star-Spangled Banner" seems rather tough to England and all things British. And "My Country, Tis of Thee" is a rather weak statement, full of slogans and "song"—America the Beautiful"—or whatever it is, is lovely enough, and really too lovely. It does not show the beauty of the song; it is a nice Sunday school hymn.

tisan nor class-conscious. It is the song of all of us, strong or weak, who struggle forward over our dead selves.
The Negro women of the United States, who are quick to see through the eyes of the heart, by decision of their national organization, adopted this song. Others have adopted it by us.
Here's a song for congress to consider. It matters not that a Negro wrote the words, and that another Negro wrote the music. It is out of the Negro that we could best evolve a song for the struggling race called man.
SOME NOTES
Borne is not very popular in Haiti. He ought to leave with the American commission. We advise him to leave just ahead of the marines, anyway. A trip abroad, anywhere, will be most excellent for his health. Any ordinary doctor could tell him that.
The American commission seems to have acted effectively so far. They have put skids under Borne; appointed a "provisional president," who is not a politician; put the weight of their influence behind the idea of an early election for permanent government and president. The program can be used without a hitch. Among a can begin to withdraw from Haiti and honest Americans will expect withdrawal.
But it is very plain that the occupation crowd, who have been drawing want to withdraw and hurt other jobs in Mississippi and Louisiana, which they have been getting in Haiti. There is danger, therefore, that this army of civil mercenaries may do something impossible to get the Borno faction to make the promise of American goodness necessary to the president of the country, shown a sincere wish to be rid of the occupation mass, but, of course, a good chance was given to went into Haiti on a very fliny excuse and have already prolonged ouray for first bloody, oppressive war. If we begin another other, if we begin any actual withdrawal from Haiti within the next 12 months, we will be strengthened. Until then, we wait.
In South Bend, Indiana, a Negro doctor was called in by a white man to attend the white man's wife—late at night. The husband then managed to shoot both the wife and the doctor, and expected to get away at once on a charge of intimacy, thinking no doubt that ku-kluxing Indiana would immediately excuse any white man who killed a Negro on such a charge, proven or not. But although Indiana is Indiana, it is not (yet) Mississippi, and so the officers there went in to investigate. At last reports it had begun to look as if this man desired to be rid of his wife and her troubles, and even the burden of an unborn child, and perhaps hit upon this novel (but very American) method of doing it. Lynching is being slowly worn down as an American institution. Perhaps this other method is to be now substituted for it: individual murder on unproven charges and under "unwritten laws." But Negro men, professional and unprofessional, will become a bit shy at being made the means by which white people can get rid of their unwelcome and unwilling mates. What next?
Clarence Darrow, returning from Europe, says that the United States has a strong culture among the nations of the earth, among true, as one easily realizes when one meets a man who tells truth. Individual Americans may not friends in other lands, but not America. It seems that a certain rich man is acting and so exclusive, that everybody is about to wish his death as an act of love. The family means to come into benefits. The man to whom everybody is in debt, is not a very welcome sight nor a pleasing anticipation to anybody. Texas' annual production of gas—natural and casked—is estimated Commission at 789 billion cubic feet.

Nationwide Battle Against Illiteracy Is Netting Results
Washington, D. C.—(ANP) Thirty-five of the states of the union are waging aggression on campaigns in eight states—half in eight states have appointed state committees to litterary, under the guidelines of the National Advisory Committee on Bicency, appointed last November by the Senate of President Hover, and now concentrating on teaching as many of their candidates write before the census man comes.
They are as follows: Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming, Iowa and Missouri. Six other states, Kentucky, Tennessee, Massachusetts, Washington, Utah and Nebraska, had already organized on a somewhat different way and are trying on compulசign. Three others are now forming the necessary organizations.
In this drive on illiteracy the governors of the states, the state superintendents of education, state committees on illiteracy, county school superintendents and local committees of national committee has laid down the general plan and furnished information and guidance. The present drive is but an initial activity in a program that is to be carried on through the years until illiteracy in the United States is brought down to the irreducible minimum. It has already assumed such a proportion as was never before reached in this field.
Areas of other large Texas counties—the average Texas county approximates 900 square miles—are: Presidio 8.812, Culberson 3.787, Webb 2.215, North Carolina 3.345, at the state 0.088, Terrell 2.085. Harris with 1.654 square miles is the largest county in the early developed section of the state.

GIRL RESERVES DALLAS PARLEY MAKES HISTORY
Dallas, Texas—March 14-16, the second Girl Reserve Conference in the Southeast for colored girls. The girls, who had the delegates had arrived and spent the remaining hours in getting acquainted and adjusted. Friday morning the conference was held in the Magnolia Girl Reserve ceremony in all all delegates took part. Maynard Jackson Dallas, gave inspirational talks each morning engaging around the themes of the conference. The talks were filled with simple but beautiful illustration. The delegates were closed with the thought, "Do we serve there in my service, it is the road to self-felicity."
H. W. Pope, National Student Council secretary for the Southwest region of the U.S.A., was one of the most helpful leaders of the conference. He led the thinking on "ourselves" after which the girls were divided into two groups and continued the discussion with Miss Vanrie. Manle Davis and Maria H. Hoffmann were reәreffe, girl Reserve, secretaries of Dallas and Houston, respectively, as leaders.
The afterclosures were spent in various interest groups: Art lead by Mrs. Duane Mason of Dallas and ceremonials by Miss Louise Kolheim of Tulsa, Oklahoma. On Friday afternoon greetings were given by the general secretary of the Dallas association, Miss Lynes and the chairman of the branch, Mrs. A. H. Dyson. Friday night was open to the public. The ceremony, "Candles the Burn," was presented by the conference. Saturday afternoon was spent at camp. The day was ended with a camp fire and talk to the girls by Miss Edith Wilson, National Girl Reserve secretary, "York City."

A special chair car was provided for the party via Missouri Pacific Lines. All report a very pleasant stay in Marshall and a quite inspirational conference. A very active part was taken in the conference by the Houston delegation. One glee club and others with individual numbers were represented.

COVETED PRIZE TO
WASHINGTON GIRL
ELLA LOIS JOHNSON, who in
recent contest under the auspices of
the Girl Reserves that have Mrs. Constance J. Thompson as matron, was
voted "Miss Washington."
This charming young girl is thoroughly deserving of any honor that her school or any school for, that matter, might give her. She is modest, obedient, reliable and capable. Already, her fingers speed over the keys of the piano with remarkable brilliance and she bids fair to be enrolled among "the wizards of the keyboard."
"Miss Washington" is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Johnson, the former a business man of our city, and the mother, a teacher in Yates High School.
Mrs. N. R. Crawford and Mrs. F. A. Robinson had charge of the contest and with the assistance of registering teachers, pupils, and many friends to whom thanks are due made the affair a success and sufficient (and more) money was raised to send Irene Peachy, Thelma Kershaw, Sylvia Fonsworth, Nannie Mae Matthews and Ella Lois Johnson as delegates to the Girl Reserves Conference, which met in Dallas March 14, 1930.
As a fitting close to the affair, after the delegates returned from Italy, Mrs. M. E. Iasna, conceived the idea of a special part of the program of the hour. When the president of the state legislature, Mr. Francis, and installed the officers, he introduced the president of the Girl Reservoir from Frenthey, who in turn was appointed to be all what went on in the conference.

BISHOP COLLEGE

Marshall, Texas—Nearly fifty dead to the ninth annual meet in the northwest, which convened in Marshall hall last week, were guests of the marathon and applauding them. We invited them to ensure them comfortable living quarters and applauding them. We also invited them to leave with W.

Much credit was given to formally active in the state "Y" and who did everything in his power to make the marathon possible. He jovial in every respect. The Bishop Y. M. C.

Saturday morning at Bishop campus and the delegates and lead-up to the marathon was much favorable, common was made by the visitors and it is thought that the marathon was as a whole was highly impractical.

SHOULD DOCTORS
ADVERTISE?
Present day advertising and business methods are practiced universally. Pick up any newspaper or magazine and the list of advertisers ranges anywhere from the 50 varieties to the 100. The vast collection of dollars spent annually must return increased volume of business and sales.
The recalled ethics of medicine (frowns severely upon the advertising doctor, and those who advertise are usually supposed to be quacks. But why do doctors do not have just no need to be a "sell" or to give to the public as would a dealer in merchandise or even the church, is beyond the understanding of the "average layman. Many doctors themselves see no reason why they should not advertise. But the public should choose to this direction throughout the country. Medical societies in various parts of the country differ in their opinions about advertising.
If doctors everywhere advertised, it would not be at all difficult, ultimately, to lift the heat from them to health. It is possible to do so, and the doctor will stand out; the quick, fakir and pretender will fall far in the rear. Professional ability will then secure its full recognition and honest and capable physicians would richly profit by such a change.
The "adopted," and "full of bull" doctor, the abortionist, the dope and liquor dispenser, the "charge, run, and let run on" doctor, the professional sick and benefit certificate writer, the alcoholic and emmengogic drugs dispenser, the "dementation," and the "anxiety" of the "hot shooter" for every imaginable form of disease, present or absent, the surgeon who operates when there is sufficient fee but no pathology is sight, promisesheds free splitters and percentage physicians burdened fakira etc., will pass out the equation
If doctors would advertise would it hurt patients by being benefited by the practice in their various patients and would the dependability be enhanced by the specific benefits it provided by each publicity? It will take many years for the medical professionals, but competition from hospitals, clinics, health centers, drug stores, hospitals, community colleges, will either compete to compete along economic lines or to be forced from the equation. It is not the fact that he is being squeezed tighter because the average income of physicians in this county is about $3,000 a year which means that this amount earned during his days of practice does not even pay him for the amount he is to obtain his medical degree. That could have been earned during a very period of schooling with the
Now is the time for doctors to think about this condition and, walt wait, what is it? The called ethical code of medicine is going to be an honest living, let us look into it to the ethical code of medicine, or do we only use it as a skill to cover up the disease?

USEFUL MIXTURE FOR LENT
Changed eating habits confront the challenge of a new season. Fish, of course, is a first thought at this time. But sea foods, however artfully prepared, lose their flavor and become less daily habit. Salads offer a welcome change—particularly when they are good to mix with a delicious mixture which—because it has many uses—is always good to have around. Vegetables are prepared at hand during the winter season and may be prepared and cooked in the refrigerator to ready to serve in cocktail.
Because of the large size of the orange now in the market, it is practiced to wrap the orange cup an airtight or densely with the appertaining appearance of the serv-
1 cup nut meats (walnuts or pecans).
Cut orange in two. Remove pulp. Cut lemon in half. Remove leaves leaving cups. Let these chilies on ice and cut into pieces. Cut apples, edible apples may be fluted. Cut pineapple. Cut pineapple. Cut pineapple. Fill cups with orange juice. Fill cups with orange juice.
As a Salad
Cover with mayonnaise which has been mixed with whipped cream (1.5 cup whipped cream to 1 cup of mayonnaise) and have been cut in small pieces.
As a Dessert

Paper Flays Judge For Unreasonable Gaming Sentences
Los Angeles, Cal.—(ANP)—Fearlessly attacking Judge Parker Wood of the municipal court and surprising all by bitter, open charges of color prejudice and discrimination, the California Eagle launched a tirade of condemnation when six colored men were levied exorbitant fines and jail sentences for gambling.
For playing a game of poker, Jack Williams, well-known colored actor, was fined $400 and 80 days in jail, and the rest $300 and 70 days in confinement.
It was pointed out by Editor J. B. Bass, in a fiery front page editorial that just the day previous Farmer Page, a notorious white gambler and police character, was fined only $75 in Judge Wilbur Curtis' court for playing poker in the downtown district, and this was usually considered a severe sentence.

Daytona Beach, Fl. — (ANP) The campus of Bedford-Cooke College was a scene of inspirational activity, with groups of prominent women responded to the call recently made by Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, for represent- ance among Negro women and individual leaders to meet in Daytona Beach.
Women affiliated with twelve national organizations, some of them authorized to represent their organizations at the conference, together with state, fraternal and educational leaders, were present at the conference.
On Sunday afternoon the conference for which these women were called was held at the home of Mrs. Bethune.
Mrs. Bethune stated to the group what she felt to be the purpose of a national council of colored women. This purpose, in brief, is "the advancement of the cause of Negro womanhood and the development of the race along all lines through unity of thought, oneness of purpose and close understanding between women's national organizations of whatever nature."

The women were agreed that the step toward an organization which would tend to eliminate overlapping in national organizations already functioning and that would serve as a clearing house or medium of understanding between leaders of such national groups would be a step taken in the right direction. It was thought that such a national council could function in two directions: First, as a medium of disseminating information from the leaders of national groups, and secondly, as a medium through which Negro womanhood might reach upward to cooperate with national or international movements affecting questions of peculiar interests to women.
It was suggested that Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethane, as chairman of a promotion committee, be urged to make further study of the national council idea, making every effort to inform the various national groups of the purposes of the national council plan, requesting that they consider the matter in their next annual or executive meeting and arrange to send their decisions through representatives or otherwise to an organization meeting to be held at the later stage of the school point. Mr. Bethune was empowered to appoint a committee of women to work with her in the promotion of this work, looking toward permanent organization.

If one of our outstanding politicians has been elected from some other city, some of the college presidents, or someone who boasted of having matriculated at Harvard or Yale, there would have been little comment along the line of personal accomplishment. It is not possible to outstanding people to develop or would have been then attributed to education or political trickery in which education would have been an aid. But let me point out the fact that Mr. DePriest does not claim an outstanding institution of learning as his alma mater; and hence cannot point to the "superior training" of this or that school as his reason for being a compassioner; but Mr. DePriest's point with pride to the force of his dynamic personality, his push and tug, and the presentation of "clean skirts," as the power behind his presence in the form of the directors of this mighty nation.
I wonder if you realize what a powerful personality Mr. DePriest must possess to secure and hold not only the confidence of his race but those of other races living in his district.
Though I am a disciple of education in its most liberal sense, I hold that in every case, if the personality is not stronger, the personality is not more like a leader and personally, attribute to the lack of leaders among our group, to a deplorable scarcity of personality.
A modern leader, aside from the anatomy of being trained, must be to use the same tools as the good mixer,*n* personally whose compilatism is backed by good sense.

Make a perusal, if you care, of our group's "who's who," and you will, figuratively, grow dizzy—degree fever, and "professorshaps"—no end; but only one man in whom his people have placed enough confidence to have him represent them, Oscar DePriest, a personality, that's all. No doctor of so and so, no master of this or that, but Oscar DePriest, a man whose personality inspires confidence, whose loyalty to friends and generalness of caste respect implies honor.
Indeed, these are the characteristics so masterly woven into a personality, that have sent him down to Washington, as the lone spokesman of ten millions of Negroes; the one race voice, which the federal government is "bound" to respect.
Year after year, our schools and colleges give to the race and the world hundreds and thousands of "letter efficient" men, men to whom the signless toads of psychology and philosophy are everyday paths; men who delve into Einstein's theory of relativity, without any great concern; but where, oh! where, can we find a plant creating some personalities, creating some leaders of men.
In the days since his election, Mr. Delaire was demonstrated clearly that he was a man of great intelligence, misplaced that they selected a man whose appearance aimed was the program of the day, and not dare tell his race what he thinks of them, and what he thinks best for them. Mr. Delaire was a model congressman, to voice the right. a factor so long kept silent. He was a normal school man, having a and is a normal school man, having a Normal School, and that was known to create the most outstanding and most popular personality of the day.

BOSTON SCHOOL UPHELD IN ACT BARRING NEGRO
Boston, Mass.—(ANP)—Mrs. Janna
A. White of Everett, was not allowed
a writ of mandamus against the Public Law School, Arthur W. McLean, dean of the school, and Messie Madine Page, member of the faculty and of the committee on degree requirements to compel respondents to permit her to continue her course of legal education at the school.
Mr. White had claimed in the work not only the subjection to his objection to the examination and the account of color, but that McLean and Bessie Madine Page maliciously denied corrosion of color, without a hearing, she was expelled from the Portland court, and the evidence denied that Mr. White had been expelled from the school, but said she was refused education in 1938 and 1937. Mr. White was expelled from the superior court, by Henry P. FIELDing, former assistant district attorney of Suffolk County, appointed master to the probation office, and able to the respondents. Mr. White was admitted to the record of Mr. White. To have been of a high order, and she was at the same time not only carrying on her work at the school, but was also attending to household records. According to Mr. Fielding, there was no basis for Mr. White's claim against the examination because of color or color
"I find," said Mr. Fielding, "that the law of the school was justified in believing that the school had been in the best position, that Mrs. White using legal aid improperly obtained loan and school to improperly obtain loan and defect legal claims against her for such merchandise obtained on credit while she was in the school, she was further improperly using such further improperly instituted knowledge and more creative methods, others, including Chief Hill of the Evergreen police department, the city of Evergreen, and a suit against the clerk of the district of Eastern Middlebury for shamier."

The nation was divided. Its consummate stricken were two central bared and brained men, who had engaged in the debating business of human slavery; and large sections South, were victims of a perverted raretion. The South had unprepared for the Negro's emancipation and his advance in economic development. The South regarded the elevation of the Negro to the highest industry as a positive evil; and those who dared promote his training whether in academic or in industrial training, had no personal safety of their personal interest. In fact, even against political extermination and reenalization was met with bitter resistance.

STOREY-MARSHALL MEMORIAL
The memorial campaign, which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is sponsoring as a fitting tribute or testimonial to the fine work done for the Negro race and humanity by the late Moorfield Storey and Louis Marshall, should have the enthusiastic and whole-souled endorsement and backing of every red-blooded Negro in this country.
The whole situation was shrouded
ignorance, inappreciation, prejudice
and hatred, which usually fultile,
if not dangerous, any ap-
plication to the problem of the
situation of justice.
Though both were members of another race, they devoted much of their time gratuitously and contributed considerably of their means in legal battles to vouchsafe to the American Negro some of his inheritance and constitutional rights.
Hope In Despair
Mr. Storey, who descended from abolitionist stock and was recognized as one of the brightest legal minds America has ever produced, was largely responsible for the decision by the United States Supreme Court, which outlawed the iniquitous "grandfather clause," intended as a means to deny and deprive the Negro of his franchise rights.
When Bocker T. Washington came on the scene these conditions had undergone considerable improvement and the nation was then be dispelled. The nation was yet in the early stages of its constructive period, and in many respects, the attitude was
It was Mr. Sterey's brilliant-legal fight which resulted in the highest legal tribunal in the land holding null and void residential segregation ordinances, in the celebrated case of Buchanan versus Warley and known as the "Louisville segregation case."
Three rays of hope appeared. The first of these, namely, a deep-seated only important, was no national mind on any of the vital questions of the whole were highly skeptical. There were appear a far-facsimile, commanding leadership which was capable of making any situation a situation to ask in a p e a l eing, sympathetic, brotherly fashion. "Come, now, let us reason to ask."
When the Elaine, Arkansas, "rioters," twelve in number, had been victimized by legalized lynch law and given the death penalty, and sixty-seven others had been given long prison terms for their crimes, Mr. Marshall argued the legal fight and a sweeping victory for law and order. Mr. Marshall, a member of the Jewish race and himself an eminent lawyer, argued and won the "white man's" primary case from Texas before the United States Supreme Court, and at the time of his demise he was preparing the brief in the case to test the validity of certain enabling acts passed by Southern legislature to seek to evade the decision of the highest court in the Texas cause.
A much more active factor was the Negro's unconquerable passion for self-respect and self-expression. The delayed hour of freedom had struck vet slave conditions persisted. The Negro had developed an insatiable passion for the rewards of faithfulness and patience. And slowly, out of his distressed but unbroken spirit sprang a militant movement committed to the defense of his right to life liberty, equality and happiness. It was an uncompromising expression of his most enlightened aspirations and an unerring interpretation of the ideals of the slowly evolving national order for which he was being called upon for an overdraft of loyalty and devotion.
He also prepared and argued two cases in which it was sought to obtain from the United States Supreme Court a definite decision regarding individual property owners entering into a pact to sell their land. The court held that Lest their work should come to naught or be neglected through inaction, it is incumbent upon every Negro in this country, as well as liberal-minded persons of other races, to join hands and pursue in this memorial movement and thus make possible the exercise of justice to and for equality for the American Negro.

REPUBLICAN PARTY LEADERSHIP
In a recent editorial, The Informer discussed the report of the senatorial (Brookhart) investigating committee, which exposed certain practices among the Republican party leaders in the South, Texas included, which tended to show that some of the Republican party leaders are retarding the growth and development of the party in several of the states.
But out of the perplexities of those distressed people, a national-minded leadership; one canable of instituted people; one capable of racial bias; one capable of all elements in the picture, and of exerting the man farther down in the mine of race hatred and as for the need of poverty, ignorance and oppression. The surreme need of the hour was a champion of national frailty.
Now, the chairman of the Republican national executive committee, who was elevated to his present post at the suggestion of President Herbert C. Hoover, according to newspaper reports at the time of his promotion, has been accused of committing indiscreet and术ethical acts, and sentiment seems to be that he should have been the chairman that another man should head the party's national machinery. It is said that the White House does not look with much favor upon Mr. Huston being retained in his present party post, due to his lobby activities and other ramifications. Apparently, some of the Republican leaders have become somewhat uneasy, particularly those who will seek offices in the general election, and are concurrent for a new chairman of the national executive committee.
Such a remarkable servant of the nation was Booker Washington, the first African-American to be socialized that I wish to refer as the third president of the nation. He cloud which hovered over the nation. Dr. Washington was as conscious of the importance of his contemporaries' were of their race and section. Here again we had a paradoxical personality. He was a man of great ambition.
While The Informer was one of the first papers in the country to boost the present executive of the republic for the highest elective office within the gift of the American electorate, it seems to us that Mr. Hoover is bungling up matters considerably, and that many of his backers and supporters will find it increasingly difficult to endorse some of the presidential moves and features.
This trait, superlatively human if not superhuman in some of its aspects, is revealed in Dr. Washington's description of his personal experience as he undertook the delivery of his memorable Atlanta address. "I was determined," he said, "to say nothing that I did not feel from the bottom of my heart to be true and right. I was painfully conscious of the fact that while I must be true to my own race in my utterances, I had to be true to the North as well as to the best element of the white South." In these words we have the revelation of a most unusual social vision: and I doubt that any man, since the immortal Lincoln, has shared more fully the mind and heart of all elements of the American people than did the one who uttered them.
Untrained in the school of practical politics, some of the president's political strokes seem to be going awry and this selection of the Tennessee lobbyist to direct national partisan affairs does not appear as a master move, nor a wise choice. It is important to remember that the president's man is about to become a liability and at a time when the party can ill afford to lose any of the ground it gained in 1928.
Several United States senators and congressmen will be nominated during the spring and summer and will be elected at the time of the election. The president can candidates, whether seeking reelection or aspiring for office their first time, do not care to be burdened with the job of trying to explain the activities and defend the actions of this party chiefain.
Instead of endeavoring to reward so many of his personal friends it strives to inform that President Hoover should ascertain the fitness and character of these men before elevating them to such lofty, important and honorable posts.
Booker T. Washington knew folks white folk and black folk; Northern whites beat in sympathy with theirs. He was the language of understanding. He penetrated the surface and behold the nature of the material and produced class animations. He saw the facts which others saw, and the underlying truth which others saw. The fact that he saw good when saw evil; that he spoke kindly when others were bitter; that he was bored when others were bored became perfectly clear.
Any attempt to defend the action of the chairman of the Republican national executive committee by making the counter-charges that the head of the Democratic national party organization has been guilty of certain questionable acts, or of making contributions to this or that cause, does not improve the status of the party<sup>4</sup> for two wrongs never did make a right and never will. Each party must face the acid test upon its own record and the record of its titular leaders and party leaders, whether local, district, state or national, will do well to bear this fact in mind as they approach the spring and summer primaries and the autumn
An Interracial Platform
The superhuman task confronted by
Dr. Washington was that of harming
izing apparently conflicting racial views by extracting the best from the most closely related elements in the Constitution, and defining contents of the whites, and formulating a tentative platform for the two races to be willing to stand, thus laying the basis for the direction of a large measure of freedom, justice and prosperity for the direction of a large measure of parable with that of Abraham Lincoln during his tenure of office as president of the United States as a president of the nation. It lionist. But as "president of the United States," he South, loyal and rebellious, bonded he, "was in his first and supreme duty, the preservation of our native
Probably no American has loved and elevated his book more than Book II, which he was defined by and to which he often referred in most affectionate terms. Nevertheless the controlling friendship of races and bring about hasty cooperation between them," he wrote. "The friendship of races and of the nation was imperilous to the understanding between the races of that basic improvement of that basic situation as his chief duty; and that he has the undisputed responsibility of his race is largely attributable to the rich store of universal knowledge appropriate to him for that unique national service. The Washington platform provided the basis for the cooperation of masses, industries, economic and economic independence, friendship and cooperation between the races in the United States and between leaders of the races, and the acceptance of the South as the abode of
But few men will insist that it was an ideal program. As a matter of fact one of its most commendable features was the fact that it was not ideal; that it was not the best imaginable program. It was, however, the most comprehensive, though focused as Dr. Washington saw it, at the point of greatest need; and the most feasible, though supported by a most lofty idealism. In its interracial aspect, it was a diplomatic interplay between conformity and nonconformity; demanding mutual concessions; and, without closing the door of absolute freedom, justice, and equality, as an ultimate accomplishment, to the oppressed minority group, it guaranteed immediate relief and formed a worthy basis of cooperation and progress.
Much Ado About Different Aspects Of a Common Problem
Dr. Washington's personality and ability did not allow him to analyze analysis. For that reason they were thoroughly minderized by many of his best informed colleagues.
Aparently they held distinctively different views to his regarding the citizenship rights and the enjoyment of the interracial policies in so far as they have been stated in this brief article, and no consistency between the struggle for the birthright of the oppressed the rights of the painfully considerate the rights of the apparently assimilated the apparent assimilated the dependent on a fully developed economic status. And, forming a sympathetic psychological background for the clearly presented views, was the traditional attitude of the masses of Nebraska moved from physical bondage, or sufficiently relieved of oppression to the race which, on its own, entailed much in common with slavery. To them labor and slavery were sy
There was, however, no fundamen-
tal conflict between these two
mradio school systems, but
blind itself worthily to a different
school system. As a result the race is riche in those virtues and advantages which accompany development that is more or less sympathetic.
Lengthened Shadows of the Man
The unmistakable proof of Dr. Washington's greatness is to be found in institutions and movements of numerous institutions and movements dedicated to various aspects of the program which he is vigorously and passionately involved in, such as stances they are in, part, the products of his personal labors. Among these are the Negro Business League, the Tuckekee Farmers' Conference, the farm and some demonstration schools, the national Negro Business League, the national Negro Health movement, vocational education, the Rosewood School, the Sister funds, the Interracial Commission and the National Urban League. The world have been able to establish well and serve connective connections with their day and generation. The History Today Booker T. Washington place, representing in his very personality and achievement the ideals of infant democracy and the Christian numbers of his countrymen shall stand with him. And there shall be justice and justice for all.

Why Capitalize the Word "Negro?"
BY KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C.
The Negro press and publicists have been insisting upon the capitalizing of the word from time immemorial. I remember when the Independent was in its prime and stood sponsor for the black man's stay in the United States. In the midwinter, let me re-workday definition of a "N" any person who would be jin in Virginia.

and give our journalistic defender insisted that it was proper use of language to use the small "n" in the term Negro. In response to my query why it persisted in such belltitlement, it was explained that Negro was not a geographical term. The Greek or American, but merely a superficial designation, such as white, red and brown.
The persistence in the use of the small letter is not in all instances an evidence of unfriendliness, but merely a way of distinguishing the other, York Times, the Atlantic Monthly and other literary publications have been constrained to use the big "N" purely out ofference to the Negro's sensibilities, without any change of conventions, in the requirement of correct form. From the Negro's point of view, it appeared to be a bellitizing discrimination to capitalize all other groups of the human family and reserve the small letter only for the displaced race.
It is undoubtedly true that many publications failed or refused to capitalize the name as a budge of contempt. To them the word Negro stave, zeravt, serf, collie and like. To the use the capital letter would give the despised race the embling designation of the more favored sections of the human family. George S. Schuyler, who is one of the most prominent among us, decries the placing undue emphasis on the racial designation by digging it with a capital letter. He would prefer that the term discarded altogether because of the current dissectee and the historic misunderstanding of the Chicago Defender, the greatest Negro week on earth, advocates the adoption of some other term, such as "race man". This designation would have no earthly meaning outside of those initiated into this peculiar lexicon, meaning the term "Racism" would convey to a Frenchman.
Many well meaning persons of color seriously insist that the persistent use of the term "Negro" serve as a reminder of the inferior and subordinate place in the white man's mind. They advocate some other designation such as "colored man" or Afro-American. But they have never made any serious effort to use the English people who use the English language with effectiveness and power persist in sticking to the term "Negro." Black and white writers all agree on
Those who insist on capitalizing "Negro" thereby indicate their acceptance of the term as the proper designation of the group intended to be covered by it. I have always insisted that it makes no difference, in the run, by what name a people are called. It is the time take on the meaning which the character of the people in part to it. The history of words discusses amazing transformations of meaning. A term at first applied in the spirit of decision or contempt often becomes an expression of highest emolence. Of the word "Christian." On the other hand, the highest distinction have degenerated into designations of ridicule and contempt. The word "duduce" is a classical illustration of the degeneration of words. It seems to me that it is a matter of salutary indifference by what application the race is designated, since there is no intention of insult or affront in the intention.
at one time the race was designed as "African," and accepted that designation with full satisfaction. The African Methodist Episcopal Church has not accepted this for some reason, not now clear. For some reason, that term was abolished and now has become quite distasteful. There would have been one undoubted advantage in retaining this geographical designation. There never could have arisen the question of accuracy of the several terms is often raised. No racial designation can possibly be accurate. If the use of a term contended the meaning of the group intended, nothing more can be required. The term "African-American," the term "black" and even "African-American," whose

Association Head Discusses Local Labor Conditions
A move has been launched by the Colored Business and Laboring Mines Association to persuade contractors in the Sioux County to employ home labor, according to C. W. Rice, president and CEO of the Sioux County to employ home labor, and Mr. Rice states that the voting of the last bond issues, amounting to $1.2 million, will not be a monument that the building of the S. P. station and other construction projects will be great influx of workers has begun. The survey shows that a great number of workers in the towns and the taxpayers are turned down. We feel that it is no more than fair for those who voted those bonds for city and county improvements to have the first chance to do the work, and that the workers in the several contractors we find that most of them prefer home labor but they are not willing to work, tinguishing home workers from drifters to working in contact with the employment manager square to get colored laborers, who are always in contact with that gang who is always not to find it. So after the manager has been reindicated about his price, the managers told to bring it on the square times told to bring it on the square not to find it. So after the manager has been reindicated about his price, the managers soon gets disgusted, and reaches the conclusion that home folks do not want to work, and thus he beats them.
In view of this situation the Colored Business and abating men's Assistants are unemployed, to register with its employment and reference bureau at the University, to list the contractors will be able to secure qualified workers without the need for a relocation solicits the moral support of the business, civic, professional and religious fort to alleviate the graue employment situation among the citizens of the city.
