The fishermen were attracted by his cries, but he died before medical assistance could be given, or he could give any information as the identity of his assailants.

American Behavior Negro Influenced Says Swiss Savant New York City…America is not a white nation but “partly colored as America,” psychologist, writing in the Forum for April. In his article summarized by the vancement of Colored Dr. Jung declares that American behavior infuses strongly by their lung contact with the colored people in America. “Since the Negro lives within your cities and even within your houses,” writes Dr. Jung, “he also lives with his race, his language, his would be difficult not to see that the Negro with his primitive motility, his expressive catholicity, his childlike language, his intelligence, his rhythm, his funny and picturesque language, his infected American behavior, his presence in America, is a source of temperamental and mimetic infection the American can’t help noticing, for he sees the American and the African Negro among the effects of the Negro upon American behavior, Dr. Jung lists “boundless, moist sociality, the music and the music of.” Of American music he says it is “most obviously pervaded the American rhythm and the African culture.” Apart from his superficial behavior, declares Dr. Jung, and within him, the man, the American Indian. This is indicated not only in the tendency of the man to show his physical appearance but in their unconscious adoption of Indian ways, such as the cruel and ardour nature of the man, and the secret societies like the Ku Klux Klan, the tower-like outlines of the man, the southwestern Indian pueblo, etc. The editor of the Forum, in a foreword to the book, is out of meeting between whites, South white man, and James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N.

The form of the verdict was not published publicly. This is said in local court circles to be the first 'capital punishment' verdict ever returned by a New Orleans police officer, then tried for the murder of a Negro. "From the published summaries of the police police office, it appears that the defendant, then this 14-year-old police office, was applied to a kitchen where she was employed and tried to frighten her into complicity, she repudiated his advances, that were rendered more contemptible by his death, was shot down and killed.

Dr. E. G. Conklin, professor of biology of Princeton University, stated the above in an address to the members of the Canadian Club at Toronto, Monday. "We are suffering in the United States," he said, "from a short-sighted policy of yielding to the demand for cheap labor. This demand brought the race problem to years it brought other distinct racial types. "We have a most unavoidable record in criminality at 97 times the murder rate of Great Britain, but if you look over the criminal records you will see that non-Anglo-Saxon males are uniformly Prof. Conklin said the process of racial massacre on our soil in Australia, the mulatto outnumbered the natives; South America has become the great power in the world, even in the United States, "with all its race prejudice," in a quarter as many mulattoes as full-blooded Net "It has never happened," he said, "and we have a rule that, when have inhabited the same territory for a thousand years without losing their distinctiveness and blending with the truths of the past." Racial blending, he pointed out, was a long process. In its intermediate stages, many things which could not be considered to the advantage of humanity. The offspring of mulate, unione, are extraordinarily high, highly desirable, or highly undesirable. The biological government of the lowest level of the laws of good breeding demanded the rigid elimination of the underfemale, so that never can be able to apply these rules of good breeding to the human species.

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, APRIL 26, 1930 HOOVERISM AND "LILY-WHITEISM" When backers and supporters of President Herbert C. Hoover were boosting him for the Republican presidential nomination in 1928, it was contended that he was a man who believed in the fundamental principles of Americanism, democracy and Christianity, and that he would make the country an exemplary chief executive. Negro leaders and newspapers, including The Informer which was among the first race publications in the country to support the chief magistrate of the nation for his present position, were enthusiastic over Mr. Hoover and many were the preconvention and pre-election assurances that he would prove another Lincoln and sound the death knell to those practices and policies which have tended to undermine the foundation of the American republic. He possessed sympathetic attitude toward Negroes, as shown in the flood relief work in the Mississippi River section during 1927, most of his black adherents believed and argued that Mr. Hoover would recognize men and races on merit and that he would nothing to offend or injure the cause of the black man. Scarcely before he was inducted into the presidential chair Mr. Hoover placed his stamp of official approval upon the ill-yellow organization he was inducted into the Southland and prejudged the guilt of certain Negro Republican leaders under federal indictment in one or two Dixie states for patronage abuses; while essaying to give a clear bill of health to his ill-yellow devotees in other states of the Southland engaged in similar practices. The recent furore raised throughout the country about and against the appointment and confirmation of Judge John J. Parker, North Carolina, as justice of the United States Supreme Court, to investigate and to instigate the alleged ill-yellow policy of the Hoover administration. In his reported speeches made in North Carolina during his race for governor on the Republican ticket in 1920, Judge Parker has been accused of taking the same position, in public addresses, that other Republican party leaders have taken in several of the South Carolina's congressional districts. Judge Parker is accused of party and does not desire, seek, nor want the black man as a member of the parishan organization. Even though the Republican party sprang into existence principally on the question of the abolition of human slavery in this country and the doctrine of human rights, writing into the oratory, he has been accused of straying the damnable institution of slavery and guaranteed to black Americans the same rights and warranties as other citizens of the commonwealth, such lily-white as Judge Parker and other party leaders in the South hold to the position that the federal constitution should be nullified and disregarded and the black man should be treated with respect. Several other Hoover appointees have held similar notions about the Negro's participation in politics and enjoyment and exercise of his elective franchise right, which leads us to the conclusion that either the president is committed to the lily-white policy and program as initiated some years ago in the Southern Republican party, or he is the victim of some mighty bad partisan adversary. Just like America could not survive part free and part slave, the Republican party can not live and function part black and tan and part lily-white. The party must become the party of all the people, for all the people, for the people, in line with the principles and policies of its founders, or become extinct through a process of political miscegenation. TEXAS REPUBLICANS AND PRIMARIES According to recent news dispatches, some of the Republican party leaders in Texas are opposed to holding partisan primaries, as required by state statutes, during the forthcoming summer, setting forth the argument that it will require too much money and will be too expensive for the party to attempt such a venture. If this report is correct and if the Republican leaders in this state are opposed to holding partisan primaries law, which is mandatory upon all political parties polling more than 100,000 votes for their gubernatorial candidate at the last general election, what will be the status of the Texas organization? Can not Republican electors resort to legal procedure and compare the party leaders to comply with the state statute governing such primaries, should fail to issue a call and make preparations for holding such primaries, what alternative would be left those Republicans who want to exercise their partisan and political rights as voters? Is it the expense incident to staging such primaries which is current, or is it the party leaders such concern in this state, or is it fear that the electors will rise up in their political wrath and indignation and consummate a general house cleaning? According to the senatorial committee's investigation of partisan affairs in this state, the Texas Republican leaders have been able to raise huge funds heretofore for "political purposes," and it is rather strange that they find themselves in the predicament now where they can not obtain money to conduct a private election, and cities where they have some ambition of an organization! The only way the party leaders of this state can maintain a vast pocket edition of a Republican organization is through the convention system, with its steam-roller, proxies and clandestine organizations. The party has no official defense and defeat and dislogue this federal patronage dynasty at the July primaries, not only will the state witness another flashe of the 1936 species, but partisan control will remain in the hands of U. B.F.-S. M. T. ORDER FACES CRISIS When the grand lodge of the United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten, Texas jurisdiction, meets at Waco Saturday, May 8, in a special called session, the representatives should act very deliberately, intelligently and courageously upon the matters which will egress their attention at said parley. While The Informer has not sought to be obstructive or destructive in its editorial attitude ment this racial fraternity (readers will remember our position last summer when the grand lodge reorganized and the officers of the fraternity is hoped and still hopes that the affairs of the order can be arranged and adjusted so as to prevent a debacle. One of the few secret orders of Negro origin and with a rich past, The Informer has been pained to observe the decline in members and resultant shrinkage of mortuary funds in Texas, to say nothing of the utter collapse of this fraternity in two neighboring states. At a time when most of the Negro orders in this state are enjoying their most pronounced period of prosperity, growth and expansion, it is unfortunate, if not tragic, that the United Brothers of Friendship should be facing the most crucial stage in the order's career in this jurisdiction. There are several contributory causes and it is absurd and preposterous to attempt to place the blame for the order's present dilemma upon one man; for if one man is responsible for the presen- What is worse than a decline in collections and a falling away of members, is the fact that the morale of the present membership is at low ebb; and no order or organization can accomplish much unless an enthusiastic spirit permeates its constituency and the member have a strong sense of purpose. What is intensely interested in this Negro order, just like we are in all organizations which are performing a distinct and definite service to the race and society, and this editorial is inspired only by a burning desire to see this fraternal barque steer clear of the quicksand, submerged shoals and impending danger and disaster. The grand lodge and grand temple officers and delegates should go forth most month determined to act for the best interests of the order, rather than for any individual or bloc; and adopt such steps that will save the order and restore it to the high place it formerly occupied throughout Texas. This can only be done by facing the issues as men and women and taking definite and positive action, whether such action means a change in leadership, or reduction of salaries, or disposing of some of the frozen assets of the order. This is not the only cause that this order is insolvent or about to go into hands of a receiver; and there is no immediate cause for alarm along this line, unless the Waco meeting should fall to enact such measures as are imperative for the fraternity's protection and perpetuity. ECONOMIC DEFENSE MECHANISM Several weeks ago The Informer called attention to an automatic and arbitrary edict, which had been issued by some kaiserian functionary at the City Hall, which banned all Negro clerks from the fish and oysters stalls operated on the first floor of this local municipal building. Through their superior order abrogated the constitutional rights of the stall operators and erstwhile Negro clerks, the former took no action, legal or otherwise, to have the edict revoked or rescinded. Along about this same time, a local ice cream manufacturing company, owned and operated by members of the other race, discharged all of its Negro employees, save one, and then to add insult to injury, increased this Lone Negro's duties with no advance in process it desired in the operation of its business. The owners of this ice cream factory had a legal right to replace its Negro employees with whites, and to take any other peaceful steps it desired in the operation of its business. However, this particular ice cream company had more Negro patronage than any similar business in the city, or colored, and being one of the oldest concerns of its kind in the city, had enjoyed this large volume of Negro business, both wholesale and retail, for many years and under several management and ownership. Did the Houston Negroes quit buying seafood at these fish and oysters stalls in the City Market after the order was issued banning Negro clerks from said booths? Did the Negroes of Houston begin to purchase their ice cream from some other ice cream company, when the concern in question "fired" all Negro employees, except one? Any vessel owned, one spark of manhood in its breast, would have resented such actions and thrown its patronage to some other concerns, or opened up and operated such places. Instead of doing what any manly and red-blooded race would have done in such a situation, most of the Houston Negroes began to make excuses for these fish stall owners and this ice cream factory, and to this day (sad to relate) members of the Negro group are still patronizing these concerns. Until the New York Negro, his buying power as an economic defense machine or mechanism, not only is he going to lose out more and more in the industrial and commercial fields, but he is going to beget the contempt and disrespect of other races even to larger degree than at present. The Negro must learn how to stick together for his own best interests like other races, and the time has arrived in his racial career when he must learn how to resent an insult; and this can be done without resorting to carminal weapons or loud denunciations. If every Negro in Houston, who has been buying seafood at the fish and oyster stalls in the City Market, would get his seafood at some other place, it would not be long before most of the Negro clerks, discharged or demoted as a consequence of the czaristic order from some City Hall official, would be back on the job. The reason why these fish and oyster stall operators did not make any effort to have this edict revoked, was due to the fact that they knew, in advance, that the Negroes would only emit a certain amount of seafood, or even the matter, and continue to buy seafood from these City Hall booths. The same attitude, undoubtedly, was assumed by the management of this local ice cream factory. A local white theatre, some year or two ago, banned Negro patrons from their playhouse on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, and yet on the days and nights when Negroes were tolerated and permitted at the show, Houston hosted them to this theatre like a warden a can; and, the disgusting thing about the matter was the readiness with which these Negroes essayed to rush to the defense of the theatre management and make excuses and amends for such discriminatory policy. It italics or any other racial group had been similarly trusted or mistreated, not one member of that race would have attended this playhouse any more; but on the other hand they would have opened up a theatre for their own amusement and thus resented this uncalled for and unwarranted insult. These races would have taken the same action regarding the fish and oyster stalls and this ice cream company; but Sambo (Lord, pity and help him) seems to be so thick and dense that he does not know how to employ his economic OPINIONS Cimbee's Ramblings THE BATTLE FOR BREAD By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C. The Negro is rapidly coming to a realizing sense of his economic condition. The World War situation flooded the business world, and he became imbibed with their new found opportunities. The benefits of the industrial high tide felt that it would last forever. The slack of the early twenties caused a temporary disillusionment. But things soon began to boom again. While wealth remained, the man could invite his soul to take it easy. The wage carrier is, however, always at the mercy of the tides whose ebb and flow he cannot control. The panic came. Millions of workers were thrown out of work and wages. Nationwide strikes could chief victim. When thrown off the pay roll he has no economic self-reliance to fall back upon. He has few shops or businesses. When the discipline in order to the efficiency.

A new chapter is now being written in the history of the Negro's battle-for bread. He is beginning to learn that he cannot rely wholly upon wages as a hired hand. He is in the last put on and the first thrown off the pay roll. A large part of our city population secures a livelihood by conducting some form of business in the city. The Negro business man or woman almost never deals 'slippy commodities such as clothes, grecies, furniture or any other line of standard merchandise. His efforts have hitherto been limited mainly to personal needs and suppliment tastes. The barter system has been the favorite for the eating house and the pool room cover the gamut of his business venture. Such forms of business are severely limited in scope and income. The business statement are now planning to launch upon broader commercial ventures. The Business League through its secretary, Mr. Holley, is working to establish other lines of commercial enterprises. Probably no course that we could take would be calculated to bring us more of the things we want than one of the things we don't want. It is also true that our group probably knows less about investments than any other phase of economics. In hope that a simple presentation of investment principles will help striving to build reserves to educate the kiddies, or to supplement their wages so that they can enjoy a few years of their independence in old age, we must ensure their independence in old age. The principle of investing is undertaken. I figgered Sundry, from what I seed I found in the chapel.

This is be loved to be the surest and safest protection that has yet been devised for the public good. We live in an age of the syndicate and the merger. The man with little capital and no experience is merely wasting his substance by launching upon any form of business in which he is not a businessman. It is a condition, and not a color that controbs and confounds us. How on earth can a dealer of small capital and smaller experience compete with the chain drug store or the mammoth dry goods house or the consultancy firm of this predicament, the Negro business man is thinking in two directions—first, how far can they pool their resources to meet the larger pool manipulated by the white capitalist? and second, how far can he force colonization, which can great esteration, which list lager upon his patronage? This seems to be at present the most hopeful angle. By this means, the Negro would not only secure employment for a considerable number of the race, but better still, these Negro workers would be able to earn more, and greater pertinence in their further effort towards self-proficiency. 2.

All of these and medical trade during the last two hundred years has been divided into distinct periods: periods of over-expansion (things getting slack); periods of things getting slack); a period of pressure (things are at a standstill, (when things begin to get letter). These periods always follow each other in importance for the investor to receive. John D. Rockefeller Jr., is the believer in the field he. In this field, he in the union of sound philanthropy and sound business. This son of many of the businessmen of the city, with the Dunbar Apartment project, and employed a number of colored men in the several departments of banking business, with the point banks purpose of turning it over to executive racial management and control as well as to ensure experience and competency. Hitherto, the Negro has essayed the banking business without capital or experience. In more cases than otherwise he has come to grief. The few that have survived deserve praise without doubt. The insuperable difficulty of limited capital and outlet. In the investment world everybody is buying. People have to pick their pennies. They have every nickel and dime they are buying something saved. As they get used to hard times, they spend less, and they begin to gritn to miss their interest and start slipping a little back into circulation. In the meantime, they begin toment. Then business picks up. People begin to spend and we are in the expansion period.

In several of our cities the experiment is now under way of inducing propietors of dry goods and grocers stores which live upon NEG support systems in the conduct of their establishment. The response to this reasonable request (or is it demand!) is quite encouraging. We hear of other experiments in Chicago, New York, Boston, Baltimore and other centers. This same cycle runs through our church. The church is not a good and people have money they go to shows, pincers, and the church does not use money. The people repose their wasteful and rebellious methods their wasteful and reliance on the true values in life. Certainly it is an unmanageable argument that the church is the leading churches show great gains when the country is in the midst of boom times. If preachers had period, they would repose a large crop. The most essential thing so far as the Negro is concerned is that these apprentices make good. Great is the transition from the intermittent dojo to the formal method of the move or less lax kinds of work in which these people have been engaged to the rigid, almost military exactions of commercial business. The work is exacting, the hours are long, the competency is low. Our apprentices QUARTET CONTEST PLANNED There will be a quartet contest at the University of Colorado, Rev. T. Bradford, pastor.
