Houston Informer

Heavenly Houston' Biggest Texas City 5 Cts THE HOUSTON INFORMER AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER Officers Prevent Lynching HONEY GROVE STAGES SHERMAN ACT BY C. F. RICHARDSON INFORMER OF IMPROVEMENTS MADE THE HOUSTON SPIRIT MODERN PRINTING PLANT JUDGE GARWOOD'S DEATH COUNTY STOCK LAW On Saturday, May 24, the Houston Informer will be eleven years of age, and will be allotted a paper name of date May 24, 1918, upon paper's name was suggested by this columnist's spouse, who has stood by this document both fat and lean periods. During this eleven-year period the Informer has fought many battles lost some and won others, and times it has contended for what it believed to be right and justice, going into existence back in 1919, there was hardly a decent and respectable public building in Houston for colored children, and better schools of better and more modern school structures and more scholarly, this addressed its Despite the fact that many differed with this paper on the course pursued in today Houston boasts of several high school children; and this city leads the geo school children; and this city leads the country; in the number of public schools for Negroes: Three senior schools; two junior schools; and nineteen elementary schools; and the only junior college operated for Negroes in the district. The principal school district in all the South, as far as we have been able to reach. Mind you, now, The Informer is not claiming credit for all this, but we have information that information helped to focus public attention on the ancient and antiquated buildings in Houston, resulting in an aroused public through its wide-awake and progressive superintendent of public schools, one of the most creditable and modern buildings. When The Informer first saw the light of journalistic day, back in 1919, Houston Negrews were living in mud; the improvement forced to eke out their existence in mud, water and squail, considerable improvement has been made in Houston's large black population for Houston's large black population, have become more amenable in many spects, and Houston is a far better city today for the Negre, taken from the area around 183,000 in 1920. It was when The Informer was born. While the city has grown from a little town to a city around 183,000 in 1920, Houston's 130 population has already been given a 110 percent—more than doubling its population in the past decade. Negrepopulation has shown a corresponding increase in the period, and today Houston has the largest Negro citizenry of any city in this respect among Southern cities. Houston Negroes, to some extent, have caught the civic spirit and have acquired property, embarked in business, are educating their children and daily endeavoring to prove themselves good citizens. Of course, we have some "bad eggs" in the race, but every race has it good and bad members, and the Negro race should not be judged by its worse and worst members any more than any other race is judged. Colored Houston has made less progress along religious lines, than in any other field of racial endeavor, for during this 11-year interim less than six colored church congregations have erected new houses of worship which are a credit to the race and community. Houston Negroes spend large sums of money in church programs, but have very little show for their money—except numerous shacks and would-be churches which are rather ubiquitous throughout the city. One of The Informer's main objectives has been to "sell" Houston to prominent and upstanding members of the race in other sections of the state and country, and during this 11-year period this paper has been instrumental in influencing several men, some of them business and fraternal leaders here, to select Houston as their future home. Starting with the proverbial lead pencil and sheet of paper in 1919, The Times and today has one of the best and most modernly equipped printing plants of any newspaper published by The Times. The former is more widely read and its HOUSTON LEADS TEXAS CITIES IN '30 POPULATION Magnolia City Also Second Largest In South — Ma m o t h Street Parade Planned For Friday Afternoon — Ne g r o p Bands, Organizations and Citizens To Participate — Business Mer's Club Active In Celebration With San Antonio's 1930 population announced as 254,662 and Dallas as 269,397 Houston becomes the state's largest city, with a population of 290,811. During the past decade Houston has leaped from third to first place among cities in the Lone Star State, showing an increase during this 16-year period, or a increase of 110.31. Despite the fact that San Antonio made a heroic and gallant effort to surpass Houston in 1980 population and was the last of the three major cities in the state to announce her population, the Alamo City not only Houston, but run behind Dallas in population count. Civic authorities of San Antonio are to be disaffected with the government count, and the county count in a determined effort to make a better showing. Having been the population counters since 1980 and having enumerated his children rather successfully and accurately all the mark far when he announces the decennial population of most American cities, Houston not only becomes the state's largest city, but the second largest city in Texas and the fastest-growing and most forward-looking municipality in the entire South. The field, with Dallas on second occasions and Houston third. Hence the county count does not seem to suit the civic, price of San Antonians, neither does Dallas to "Honor Kansas." Having outgrown Atlanta, Memphis, Birmingham and other populations, the population bids fair to be exceeded only by New Orleans. The words of Dr. C. B. Johnson's booster song, "Houston In A Grand Old Town."

HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, MAY 24, 1930 Brave Dixie Governor Saves Accused Lads From Mobbing Orgy STATE COLLEGE SHERMAN STUNT ALUMNI SELECT DUE TO QUARREL TAYLOR HEAD OVER FARM DEBT Graniteville, S. C. — (ANP)—What seemed to be an inevitable lynching was thwarted here Wednesday when officers successfully eluded a mob in quest of Leroy Jackson and Ernest Jones, two youths arrested in connection with attempted assault upon a five-year-old white girl. Following the attack a mob of more than 200 men and women scored the victims, and the name been named in the case. Lynching was in the air and hourly the news of the capture and lynching was expected. Governor Richards ordered the law enforcement officers to do everything and augment the corps, one group keeping 'tab on the movement of the mob' and providing to young youths. Fortune smiled on the accused and the officers reached their hiding place ahead of the mob bent HOBART T.

When the news of the arrest reached the city scores of armed men runneth about the local jail, but the officers sensing the danger of a lynching carried their prisoners to the state prison. Jackson was charged with attempting the assault and Jones was held as a suspect. The police has denied that he was guilty of the attempted assault and has withstood the charge. According to reports here all plans for the lynching had been completed, and the police mob that they would capture or wrest the youths from the officers, they had appointed a committee to select the suspect. The police suspended and their bodies riddled with bullets. The tree was near the man's armor, the real men stood near here awaiting word of the capture. It was a sullen man, a suspect, a lynchman, a lected apothecus. The news reached them that the officers had put one on over the would-be lynchers and the police prisoners safely in the state prison. BY ROSCOE J.D.UNIEE (For the Associated Negro Press) Sherman, Texas——Did George Hughes, 41-year-old, c remaired Negro, confess to the charge of raping a Mrs. Atnip, white, living near Howe, Texas? Did her husband husband owe Hughes and refuse to say him? Did an enraged man enter into an altercation with Atnip and his wife only to have the age-old charge of assault cast him into the inferno of death? There are a thousand confusing and perplexing questions which might be answered by the streetmen who have restrained out of the street which stalked through the streets of bermuda. How did it happen that the sheriff's deputies happeed to arrest the man, who troubled, when the alleged rapist assaulted his victim? How does it happen that a round bullet hole from a bullet struck the car, the car, when they testified that Hughes shot at them with a shotgun, whites, before Sherman was engulfed in shame, admitted that the trouble was entirely over a debt owed the Negro women, who work at the hospital where Mrs. Atnip is supposed to have been taken for treatment, allege that the woman is uninjured, except for a few scratches on her hands, which might have been occasioned by joining in a tussle with Hughes when he fought her husband. It is known that Atnip was indebted to Hughes for three weeks' labor. Hughes, who had been in the neighborhood of Howe, was well known at Honey Grove, where his home was. One of the national guardmen, when he arrived to help guard the Negro district, stated to a number of blacks that Hughes had always borne a good reputation in his home town. The sudden termination of the trial in Judge Carter's court room, and his subsequent cremation by the mob, has probably silenced forever the question of Hughes' guilt or innocence. All North Texas, from Dallas County back to Texarkana, is the land of "po" white trash.

The victim was little Robbie Mae Taylor, five years old, and her assailant was a white boy, 15 years of age, Herbert Walters. The story of the whole affair as given by Mrs. Ethel Taylor, mother of the assaulted child, which was verified by the police record at the Vinewood station while the girl was playing in the back of her home, the Walters boy came into the yard and asked the little girl for a drink of water. When she returned from the kitchen with the water the boy is said to have seized her by the alley to vacant garage up the alley to a vacant garage where he assaulted her. The screams of the child who could not imagine what was happening to her dew the attention of two men who were sitting on the floor, whom it is said looked on and made no attempt to stop the brutal attack. A third person attracted by the cries of the children of a small colored boy about the size and age of the white brute committing the crime.

This town was the home of friends. Both men quarreled w due them as wages. Honey Grove, Texas.—(ANP)—Several hundred whites, who prehaps participated in the burning of George Hughes Sherman, Texas, a few days ago, and others who due to other ties were denied the pleasure, satiated their savage desire to the odor of burning flesh here Friday, when they took the scarred and pierced body of George Johnson, dragged it through the streets and burned it. This town was the home of Hughes. He and Johnson were friends. Both men quarred with white employers about time due them as wages. Texas's second burning took place in front of a church, showing the utter disgrace of God and who thought he would be the second and the second. The second disgrace upon the Lone Star State. Johnson had earlier in the day killed a white man, I. F. Fortenberry, in a fight over a debt. He escaped from the scene of the man and barricated himself in a cabin nearby. From this stronghold he battled the offences of the warmen who were led from the bullets which pierced him by. While the battle was in progress, the warmen of the men stood by as innocent bystanders. When the firing from the cabin ceased, the fire had been a loss of the matter. He was in the place of an incapacitated, and either been slain or incapacitated to the extent that he was helpless, they rushed the door, seized the body. With all the savagery of carnels and other mutilated members of the human family, the manless men, women and children were killed and killed. The manless men, women and children of burning body, shrieking, st账 and howling in shoulish gleshes, and the fire of the fire, and the burning of the burned in the very shadow of the pole of God. It was stopped the ceremony here. It was the first of the day "all was quiet." Little or less of the time to expect here as a investigation is expected here as the mob, just another Negro out of the way. The other was the other family, congress should�igate Texas and send a committee here to study conditions and regulations. The people were all in foreign countries now in foreign course seeking to civilise and Christie when the return Date for the people is the lyching. The body was dragged through the metro streets with assistance to the Negro section. Stopping in front of one of the largest churches in the city, he was dragged to the back of a limb of a giant tree, satulated it with gasoline, ignited it and danced as the frames consumed the remains of his body. He defended himself against a white man and white men.

NEGRO PORTERS, MOB WITNESSES, GIVEN NEW RUNS New York City.—(ANP)—Official of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters are concerned about the die appearance from their run on the Kansas City-Florida Special of the porters who were on that train when the body of J. H. Wilkins was found at Locust Grove, Georgia. According to information received at the brotherhood headquarters, Porter Richard Smith, who testified at the coroner's inquest, that he heard the conductor say, "I have all the evidence I need," as he is alleged to have removed three bloody sheets, has been pulled off the Jacksonville-St. Louis run. It is also alleged by officials of a brotherhood that the other party operating on through cars either from Miami to Kansas City or from Sanville to Kansas City have been switched, presumably to prevent the from speaking too freely about it case. The contention of the Brother of Sleeping Car Porters, through attorney, Frank P. Walsh, is since Pullman regulations require employees to go wherever they sent and the fact that no human being "dead or alive" can be found from a train while outside the knowledge of the crew, a incumbent duty of the Policies pay to make public what is said it has on the case. Officials of the Pollution and the Southern Railroad have admitted that they information but refuse to PAGE TWO William Pickens SAYS CAN? THE NEGRO DEFEATS HOOVER AND PARKER Judge Parker of North Carolina has just missed getting the biggest job he could possibly get, poaching which he made ten years ago. If he had just refused to wag his lawyer, he would have supposedly helped Negro at the time, he would now be a justice of the Supreme Court. In the same book, in spite of the fact that many regarded him as unfit for the position, regardless of his race, Parker of San Francisco News said: "A Supreme Court made up of such men cannot retain the respect of the judge." However, even a casual analysis shows that the judge would have landed the job if the Negroes had not been against him. He missed by only one vote: there were thirty-nine for him and forty-one against him. He was given a few points to, he would have been 40 to 40, and the vice president, out of respect for President Hoover, would have cast the deciding vote for Parker. Well, the American Negro's fight on Parker influenced at the same time was the same thing. But perhaps several, but at least one. This Negro influence was the balance of power in this particular lineup. Judge Parker will now have abundant time to reflect what would have happened if ten years ago he has a spoken fairly of the status of his job. Without rights of colored people. Instead of speaking against the political rights and equal citizenship of Negroes in 1920, just suppose he had the courage ( and the foresight ) to have said: "Ladies and gentlemen of North Carolina are the only people a good one of us, and is entitled to the rest of the country and privileges, in politics and in all other public affairs. We welcome and invite the full participation of our colored fellow citizens in our party and in our government. " He has been the first to be the most well-known government of course, but he lost it away. They do not elect Republican governors in North Carolina, just yet, whatever the Republican candidate may say when he is running for office. Therefore, Parker in 1920 had been working with the same position but he standing by law and decency, but he lacked the foresight to see it.

The biggest influence against him in this fight was the organized labor movement.

Let others heed in time. TEXAS GOVERNOR INCITES MOB VIOLENCE "Hold him if you can, but don't shoot anybody." These are the words which the governor of Texas will be offered to the officers who were defending an accused Negro against a mob bent on lynching him. Those words were just as effective as if he had wired to the mob leaders: "Go and get the Negro if you want him; you won't be hurt." That was the same thing as the crime. That telegram incited the uwrofted and hence unconvicted the untried, and hence the mob leaders and the mobish law-officers said: "The Negro confessed," but that is what they all- not the confession is in the calm atmosphere of a court, not in the fury of a mob nor in the presence of bullying, torturing "officers." The sort of confessions gotten from Negroes under such circumstances are never to be treated as never when the confessor's certifiedness is held to be verified, but usually have only the mob's words for it, when after the lynching they are trying to mitigate the heinousness of their offense. We know that even when a black man and a white woman are caught in compromise in a state like the law, it stands as "rape" even in the Texas courts, as well as before the mob. Sherman, Texas, is in the edge of hell. One year ago I had a date to speak there and to organize the colored people.

I felt rather vexed at what seemed the useless fear of that colored man then, but perhaps he knew the depth of the savagery of that community better than I could guess it. I see that this mob did not forget to burn down "the Negro drug store," perhaps this same doctor's business. It is remarkable how these mobs pretend that they are trying to "punish rapists," but always manage to destroy or to steal property. The economic motives of the mob are very convincing. Ten years ago, after the Tulsa riot, and after the sacking and burning of the "Negro section," in the first days of peace that followed, many a colored woman, walking through the town, discovered some of her jewelry on the fingers or in the ears of some white woman. The "frenzied" mobs were not frenzied enough to pass over or to scorn these valuables; jewelry, money and even furniture was hauled out in some cases before the Negro home was set fire to. But Dan Moody's wire is so far the worst outrage committed against law and decency in the history of mob violence. He deliberately sought to paralyze and stay the none too eager hands of the Texas officers in defending a Negro prisoner. He must have known that if he feared to order them to defend their prisoner, as braver governors in Kentucky and other states have done, he did not even need to order them to turn the Negro over to the mob without resistance—which is the sum and substance of his orders. Officers in such cases need encouragement to sustain the law; they never need any incitement from their superiors to connive at popular uprising or riot. Old Bill Sherman once said: "If I owned both hell and Texas, I would rent out Texas." Well, Governor Dan Moody is a disgrace even to Texas.

HOWARD Houston Dentist ADVISE TO PATIENTS WEARING DENTURES (PLATES) (Continued From Last Week) There are two things that will take you longer to learn than anything else, namely: talking and eating. Consider them separately. In speaking there are certain sounds that are apt to become more difficult than others; s, x, ch and sh are the worst. A good way to overcome this difficulty is to practice reading aloud. Do it alone so there will be none to attract your attention. Read slowly and make it a point to communicate each syllable distinctly. When you meet with a word that bothers you, stop and say it over and over until you can say it distinctly. Remember you are training the muscles to obey the will very much as a child does in learning to talk. The more this simple and easy exercise is practiced, the quickest you will be able to speak distinctly. Following this plan most of the difficulties of speech will disappear in a few days. you alw time to u MUM is applied in a moment its protection lasts for hours. A dab of snowy cream beneath the arms... or anywhere there's need to guard against body odor, and you're ready to gell N'waiting. Nothing to dry. Mum doesn't even leave the skin greasy, so it can't injure fabrics. Make the use of this dainty deodorant a regular part of your toilete. Morning and evening. Every day. Then you will know principle is the same. Don't expect to eat your first meal with your new starch just as you did with your natural teeth, nor just as someone else does who has worn artificial teeth for many years, for you cannot do it; no one ever does it. Some dentists tell their patients not to yield to the temptation to take out their teeth for their first time, they will not want to take them out the second time. This we consider bad advice, because the patient is apt to become discouraged at his failures, and get the idea that there is something wrong with the teeth or himself. If you become discouraged and loose confidence in your ability, the teeth will not be the success that they should be. Therefore, we would not advise a beginner to try to do too much at first. If you only eat parts of the first meal with your new starch just as you do with your new starch something more every day and as the days pass an increased efficiency is acquired. If you attempt to bite upon a hard substance, like an apple or an ear of corn, you will probably trip them, for this is a several-time-time trial. If you be accomplished, however, by pressing the whole firmly upward against the ays have se Mum the joy of permanent protection! And what complete protection Mum neutralizes every vestige of odor. The moment that Mum is applied an odor is gone. For commending proof, just try Mum on the sanitary napkin. This most important use of Mum makes a woman sure of herself at all times. Mum brings comfort and security for which most women would pay any price. It yet costs only 35c and 60c. Mum Mia, Co. N.Y.

C.—(ANP) *Gottonseed meal, commonly used as a cattle feed, has been found to be a multidistance rich in vitamin G, the anti-pellagia vitamin, and by far the most important vitamin W. W. Skinner of the Bureau of Chemistry and Solids, U. S. Department of Agriculture, states. Results of nutrition studies on cottonseed meal for the last year were reported. The University of Chicago Chemist Society at New Orleans by Henry C. Koch, who has been in industry since 1915. "In addition to being rich in vitat- in, it is also important to be an important carrier of vitamin B. The anti-bacteri vitamin," Doctor John B. Stevens said, "the chemists to be the richest known natural source of these two vitamins, and the chemists to be the most commercial cottonseed meal, and the chemists to be the only substance that even approxi- mates yeast as a source of both of the vitamins, but the cost of yeast is high to the chemists." Pellagora is a disease resulting from improper diet, and is fairly common in children. Dr. Joseph Goldherder of the Public Health Service demonstrated that this disease is due to the lack of a proper balance of vitamins, which is of unknown chemical composition, is known as vitamin G, and is in lean meat, fish, eggs, and milk. in Skin beautiful Alabama, GA.—Instead of dying as was at one time predicted, the Negro race to America and the life of Negroes is growing, according to a statement given on the Company's website. The Negroes is growing, according to its statements upon figures furnished by the United States Public Health Service, the Department of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, the commission says. "The ploygy prophesies of the Negro's extinction have been confirmed by the Negro's extinction have been confirmed by the last six years. In that period the Negro mortality rate has decreased death rate being about 17 per thousand, as against 35 or 40 per thousand." "The present life span of Negroes is about 46 years, which represents a gain of five years.

With all the gains that have been made, however, due to education, education, and public health, Negro children still much higher than that of white people - 67 per cent higher in the rural communities, according to the figures of the Public Health Service. This is a surprise to many to learn that the Negro death rate is much higher in the cities than in the rural Northern states than in the South, in the census of 1920 Louisiana shows about 10 per thousand other Southern - while white per thousand Southern states showed rates of 17.2 per thousand other hand, was 17.6, while in other Northern states the rate ran higher than having a maximum of 18 in Michigan.

Moore, the first member of our party to be elected to the state legislature, is the first Republican nomination for congress in the twelfth district, which is largely populated by Democrats. C. D.

I regret that he forged a connection. "In the Parker matter, the New Yorker found their memories and due up to him, and that our Republican senator would stand by us in this fight.

RICHARDSON, Jr. Marshall, Texas.—Bishop College grabbed the first game of the championship series of the Southwestern Conference, when Williams, Bear righthander, had the Texas College Steers eating out of his hand and let them down with three hits and two scores. Meanwhile his mates, led by Dade and Littleton, the latter has about the best batting average of any player in the conference, nicked Williams, Texas College, for seven bingles and five runs. Littleton, Bishop, and Scott, Texas, hit the pellet for the circuit trip. Bishop played the best brand of baseball seen in these parts this season and this air-tight fielding and hitting in the pinches accounted for the well-earned victory. But as the game was ended in the first half of the ninth by Jupiter Pluvius' torrential downpour and as the game was called, the game was called 2-1 in favor of the Bears. In the second game, Texas College was hitting the ball nearly every time the defense could reach it. Coach Mumford was forced to yank pitcher after pitcher and even that failed to curb the slugging of the deuce. The defense was able to support a couple of players to be a Bishop, was again the most consistent hitter, while Rekia Hofler and Stone saxon, fielded by stone saxon, respectively, played bung up ball for the Bears. The play was the most important it would probably be a different story. The Steers ran up eleven scores, while the that the Bears could push over were four.

Sherman, a town where ordinarily one would expect to find culture and refinement, because of the atmosphere of Austin College and Kidd-Key College, is one of the worst hell holes of iniquity, when it comes to the treatment of Negro women. For years the young colored girls of the city have been forced to listen to insults and suggestive remarks when they passed the corner at Keith Drug Store, where the college boy ran out of money and shouted "I got two bits," or "I've got four bits." Several years ago Carolina and Odessa Dorchester, two highly respected Negro girls of the city, were insulted near Keith's Drug Store, and when they resented the foul, amorous approach of the white skunks, they were cursed and one of the girls alleged she was struck. "Oh! don't she look hot," is what greets the average good looking Negro girl when she passes down the streets of Sherman on one of the main thoroughfares. A young Negro girl, talking to the writer since the mob Friday night, stated that she could not go home in the evening from her work without being interested by white men and boys in cars, who insist that she get into their conveyances. "Only yesterday evening as I was coming home, a white man drove up beside me, and he stopped stepping out, said, 'Get in baby.' I ran all of the way home, but not before he had reached in his pocket and several dollars on the ground."

In the recent judgment of Judge H. M. Garwood, one of the leading lawyers and most prominent citizens of Houston and Texas, there passed from the court that race who had shown a friendly interest in the colored race and who had much in his quiet and unassuming bravery in the defense of the officers of the race, including Negroes in it. It is said on good authority that the late lawyer first rose to prominence when he was beginning the career of his legal defense of a group of Negroes accused of allying several people in his legal defense of a group of Negroes feeling was no intolerance against the accused blacks in Bastrop County that could not get a white lawyer to defend him. He pointed young Hiram Garwood as a defense counsel. The barrister took the assignment, got busy in the case and won the acquittal of all the black men, excepting one, who received a short sentence. The trouble started, it is said, between the two races when several men were upon and attacked a group of Negroes, the whites sustaining several injuries. For his able defense of these accused Negroes, Mr. Garwood had recalled that he had sentiment soon changed in his favor and he enjoyed the goodwill, confidence and respect of all Bustrop leaders. He later became one of the leading members of the bar in Houston and Texas and at the time of his demise he was a firm of Houston, and one of the foremost in Texas and the entire South-Bustrop area and Garwood.

KELLY MILLER "Isatent, the sunshine on a cultured soil, Ripens the fruit, by slow degrees for toll; Gains the sudden Iris of the skies. Clasps in its airy arch the pomp of heaven. As I write, I sit among slowly mouldering tomes, whose covers have been cleaned by two generations, and whose leaves depict the trend of the ages, in literature politics and some of the arts. As I look around I see them—from Spencer to Kipling—nestling where they were probably placed by hands which already have "their reward." But there is a volume, well-worn, that is not kept in the usual place, but on a table, as if it represented the family's coat of arms. "Out of the House of Bondage" is the title, and Kelly Miller is the author; then nearby, on another section of this table, where are kept only the "books in immediate use," its tan covers standing boldly out against the others is the "Negro Soldier in Our War," and a certain Howard dean, Kelly Miller, is also its author.

Yes, who has not heard something of the part he plays—his unusual work at Howard University, where his personality has meant more to the student body than that of any other professor, of his immortal work as a conciliatory medium between the races, and of his sociological achievements, that has placed him in a most姆们样化的身份uality on the other problems of the United States. As I thinker and lover of research, he has given to the Negro, what, in all probability, will be regarded in time to come, the most outstanding document of our part in a so-called "white man's war". But let us look into the everyday life of this subject of the adulation of many, and see how it affects his personality; how it alters his outlook on life. You would probably be quite superb to tell, you would make a trip to "hill," and be the great Kelly Miller pointed out to you as he made his way to his class room; indeed, you would probably ask your informant in downright astonishment, "Are you sure that's he?" Good clothes, but not fancy, are worn by this outstanding personality, with a tidiness that would most likely draw a "C," if he had to mark it—so fond is he of that letter on reports. But the unusualness of this authority is born in the way in which he houdles the usual; the outstanding things in the way he handles the simple. In a conversation with a Howard "Dear Doctor," who you think of Dr. Miller's personality, aside from his ability*2, the personality, so incontrovertible in process, is keen interest, "one almost ceases to be interested in Dr. Miller's ability, so incontrovertible in his daily routine, the utter lack of concern that strain of boring geology—at once booms the greater, and the more worry of people, that is, as nearly everyone who knows this contemporary imminent work, what he deems his duty to his race, is uppermost in his far-flung world. Nothing depicts greatness of soul, nothing bespeaks the characteristics of a super-personality so clearly as the personalities and association with his followmen, is tempered by simplicity and unselfish. As a super-saleman, and one of the most effective verbalists of the race's character, is a masterful product of ultra careful blending of those characteris- tures so rarely found in outstanding people. Like so many of the country's great leaders, so many of Carolina in 1863, and Johnfield Institute, Howard University and John Hopkins was listed as alma Beginning his work in 1880 in the Washington High School, Dr. Miller became the foremost mathematicians of the era; but it is as a sociologist rather than a great mathematician that his contributions to the race have been made. As an author also, especially in the 1920s, Miller ranks among the foremost of the day. But the great and unmistakably unusual thing about the title hero, is he never gets into the courtroom, which he enjoys—and could enjoy more, is never brought into play, among the amounts of pay he special good, to the general welfare; and therein lies greatest of personality. And so I would have you meet him, Kelly Miller, author, sociologist, professor-man.

REV. P. R. B. PITWATER, D.D. Mem. ber of Faculty, Moody School Institute of Chicago.] (1938, Western Newsletter Union.) Lesson for May 25 JESUS DESCRIBES THE FUTURE OF THE KINGDOM MISSION TEXT—Matthew 24:15-28 (Print 24:15-28) TEXT—Take ye a knee, watch and pray; for ye know not when PRIMARY TOPIC—Being Ready to UNION TORIC—Being Ready. INDEPENDENT AND SENIOR TOPIC YOUNG PEOPLE JB ADULT TOP-IC-Christian. Preparedness. 1. The Prophyic View of the Course of Time from Christ's Crucifixion to His Second Coming. (2c. TS181). 2. The Time are in general as follows: 1. The moral condition of the world during Christ's absence, v. 1-14). This is the period covered by the Gospel of Christ, v. 1-14). 2. The appearance of the Antichrist, v. 15-28). In connection with the Antichrist in connection with this will be mighty convulsions of nature, the mourning of the tribes of the earth, and the gathering of the elect, of the earth, and the gathering of the elect, of the view of the great advent, v. 28-51). The time of this advent is unknown and on the part of many unexpected. 3. Instruction to believers in view of the great advent of Christ's coming (25-13-9). 4. H. Behavior of Believers In View of the Coming of the Lord (25-13-11). 5. The virgin has continuous application in the present time (I Thess. 16:18; Titus 2:11-3). 6. The equipment of the virgin (v. 1-3). (1) The foolish virgin takes lamps, but no oil with them (v. 3). Lamps signify Christian profession (Matt. 14); have lamps and no oil shows that they were professors of religion, without possessing its reality. The lamps signify the holy Spirit. As soon as a man is regenerated, the Holy Spirit takes up his abode with him. The Spirit is indwelling therefore is its advance toward the real God, that one is a child of God is that he has the Holy Spirit dwelling within him. (Rom. 8:39). The foolish virgin takes lamps and oil (v. 2). The wise virgin possessed both lamps and oil (v. 4). They backed their profession with a real life of God. The foolish virgin possessed foolish virgins slumbered and slept. This shows that as the present age lengthens, the real and the professing church will cease looking for the comings of the Lord, so that no many, even of God's choice—the wise virgin—should give up the expectancy of the return of the Lord. The coming of the bridegroom (v. 8:12) (1) The midnight cry (v. 6). In the midst of the night when all the men of the kingdom fled, "He bled the bridge commons, who knew but that the time of this cry is now close upon us?" (2) Activity when the bridge commons trimmed and trimmed their lamps. There will be great activity when the Lord comes on the part of both believers and the people of the earth to be a day when the reality of one's faith will be tested. (3) The foolish cell (v. 8, 9). The revelation of Christ will make manifest the gentleness of our faith and expose the foolishness of our Lord comes, it will be too late to mend one's way. (4) The wise enter to the marriage. While the wise enter to the marriage, the wise are trying to buy off—the bridge commons, came and those who were trying to buy off—the bridge commons. (5) The plush petition of the foolish virgin (v. 11). They begged the Lord to open the door. (6) The Lord declared, "I know you not." 2. The solemn obligation (v. 13). which, for ye know not the nature of your own life, can connent. Two solemn facts should engage in the mind: one is the virtue between Christ to the man ridge depends upon faithfulness to the end. If oil and light be wanting when care is required no admixture is granted. The solemn obligation will not await at that day. Despite the value of godly service, the solemn obligation render no service in the day of Jesus Christ. Personal contact with the solemn obligation in his blood is the absolute essential. Those Who Do Not Sleep While many are sleeping and taking it easy, we an overcrowd, are struggling to keep up with the attack, we weep and warning and begging for help to battle against the forces of the enemy. Hear That Voice How hard it is to get down to that point where we hear the voice which the sheen always know! He not conceived, he have heard that voice! — John R. Molt ACQUIT ALLEGED ASSAILANT Mourne, La—(AMP) —Jack "Sone" Ross, on trial on criminal assault charges, was acquitted by the jury after nine hours' deliberation in district court.

"Writing of the event, Arthur E. Burke," wrote the Tribune in part: "The well-balanced sound of sprinters, relay and triathlon teams, again overwhelmed by erick Douglass, composed almost entirely of Negroes, again overwhelmed by less competing for New York Herald Tribune media in the annual junior high school championships, scored 68 points, exactly the same to the year ago, in winning the title a year ago." Mr. Patterson speaks of the victory as having been "decisive," "clean cut" and "confidently achieved" and adds that "it was the Harlem schools, Douglass and Cooper, which dominated the meet, taking every relay, four of five sprints and one of five field events. It was in the running events where records fell, all field marks holding before the challenge of yesterday's entry. Douglass winner of the meet, broke or equaled every record which was touched during the day, accounting for four new standards and equalling one." Los Angeles, CA.

New York City (ANP)—on what "The Green Pastures" is decided hit, the stage manager is experiencing the woes which attend the production of any show which features colored performers. When the show first opened, the call board demanded that the performers be in the theater at 7:40. This in spite of the fact that the curtain did not rise until 8:45. "Half-hour" was called at eight-clock, the giving time to the on-hand or twenty minute leeway before the regular hour fog arrival at the theater. The second call of "fifteen minutes" thus came at 8:15 and at 8:30 everybody was supposed to be on the stage. With the twenty minute period of grace established, the actors began to grumble over the early hour necessary for them to do so. With immediately began taking liberties with the time. Some started arriving at eight o'clock. This did not matter very much, as they still had forty-five minutes in which to get ready. Those arriving after eight o'clock, however, were checked as late. Then things began to happen. Some got the idea that they could stay out until after 8:15, drop-young in the time of 8:15, and on young lady even went so far as to walk into the theater at 8:25. Here was where the stage manager was. She was standing young lady walked into the theatre she was met by the manager who was standing young lady was going. He said nothing, but let her go ahead and dress for a regular performance, but when she came down the stairs, she was not alone. This caused her to leave a day's work. She was not the understudy who had her role. This did not occur once, it happened once, and she was the one still stumbling with the earpiece of the cast, many of whom were the stage manager woken. "The Green Pastures" is in for a much needered young lady. "Hearts in Dixie" and would not attempt any further experiment with the show. "Hearts in Dixie" was a success financially and halted in all parts of the country, but out any adverse criticism. Fox refuses to make further pictures in the show. Broadway showing at a "special" house ended in such a way as to make the show more accessible. But the bitter experiences the management had with the first cast present what happened with the show "Harlem" is history—what happened with the show and caused its closing far earlier than ticket sales indicated. The cast-and a producer and director of a show, there is not a more accurate portrayal of Harlem than Lowell Lea. One girl lost her job in one of his shows, and there were many around the stage door for her. Lea advises of his employees to step down their jobs as he is concerned. The same time he goes back to America in high fidelity. But it is always the same with the colored casts, they cry for opportunities yet when they are fortunate enough to get hold of one, they deliberately throw it away. Unless the unforeseen happens, "The Green Pastures" will give "Porgy" a close running honor, and already, it is receiving mention for the Pultizer's running closely with the prison drama "The Last Mile."

ANY MAN WHO IS GOOD ENOUGH TO SHED HIS BLOOD FOR HIS COURSE IS GOOD ENOUGH TO BE GIVEN A SQUARE BETWEEN THE HOUZON AND THE MORE AND NO MAN SHOULD RECEIVE LESS—ROOSEVELT. HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, MAY 24, 1930 HONEY GROVE HUNS ENTER LEAGUE! Before the ink was dry on last week's issue of The Informer, in which we took the position that the actions of the Sherman mob would encourage and stimulate mobrocats in other communities to pull off similar stunts, Honey Grove made an effort to "Shermanize" an American citizen of color, and thus for the second time within one week Texan White Growd was disgusted before the chase and went on to intimidate and bluff the Negro into the unfortunate Negro was not accused of "attacking a white woman," but of engaging in a deadly combat with a bullying landlord, who sought to intimidate and bluff the Negro into remaining on his plantation, as is the custom on numerous farms and plantations in Texas and other Southern states. According to newspaper reports, this black man had decided to attack a white landlord and obtain work elsewhere, and when this information came to the landlord, in true Dixie fashion, he went to the Negro's cabin to force him to stay on the job. In the encounter which followed the white farm owner was fatally wounded and when the report of the shooting reached humili and hellish Honey Grove, peace officers organized a posse (police name for mob) and began to trail the black man; finally the barricaded himself in a house and shooting the Negro to death. Whether the Negro was shot to death while barricaded in this shack, as per daily press accounts, or whether the officers and mob shot him as he was running from the scene of the trouble, has not been divulged. Of course, a Negro accused of criminal attack upon a white woman or of shooting, fighting or repelling the attack of a white man, was not guilty. The court is given a chance to give the accused Negro a fair and impartial trial before a jury of his peers. Every time some Negro is accused of a criminal outrage upon some white girl or woman, the charge is not true; as the recent case in Houston demonstrated when the girl in inception later repudiated her attack charges, resulting in the Negro's liberation but not until police officers had beaten him dimerically in an effort to make him confess that he committed the attack. The police were able to do the destruction of physical property through the application of the torch, simply because a Negro had been accused of attacking a white woman, it is now charged that the woman's husband and the Negro had a misunderstanding due to the white man's failure to pay the black man for his labor; that in the tussle between the two men the white woman tried to aid her husband; that the white man, observing some scratches and bruises on his wife's arms after the mule, sounded the alarm that the Negro had outraged his sick wife, and the heathenism and human barbarians of Grayson and New York, caused him to be arrested. When it is borne in mind that most of the Southern sheriffs organize a pose (mob) of 200 and 300 men to assist in catching one Negro accused of some crime against some member of the dominant race, it is small wonder that these same peace officers are too cowardly and conning to even attempt to protect their black prisoners from the hungry and howling mobs. Of courses, the black men at Sherman and Honey Grove were dead before the mobs burned their bodies and dragged their life-fellows to the city jail, where they were incarcerated, in a futile effort to terrify and cower the Negroes, all of which goes to show how "brave" and "superior" the average Nordic mob is. Hundreds, ye, thousands of brave men, women and children—even mothers with infants in their arms and all members of the supposed "superior race"—burning the body of a lifeless Negro and then dragging the remains over the community as a sort of festival, reads more like some story about heathen in some nighted land than about inhabitants of a supposed enlightened land. For the past several years Texas had made marked progress in combatting and routing lynch law, and its entry in Judge Lynch's League, Inc., had been making a poor showing during recent years; but Shorman and Honey Grove—just fifty miles apart—tired of the state's poor showing in this mobocratic circuit and thus they have staged such heathenish and hellish orgias as to place Texas at the top of the loop's percentage column, and it begins to appear as if the Lone Star State will land the 1806 peninsula, where the state's native people not only have these two mobocratic communities and Texas been disgraced shamefully and shockingly before the civilized world by these two recent barbaric outbreaks and domestic disorders, but the South and entire country must feel the chagrin and humiliation such reversals to savagery, barbarianism and incendiation bring upon the country at large and the proud Anglo-Saxon race. Such savage stunts and hellish horrors not only are calculated to weaken the Negro's faith in the white race and its sense of fairness and justice, but to disrupt whatever amicable relations have been established between the people from the scene of such dastardly and diabolical demonstrations. What is worse and more provocative of such outbreaks in the attitude generally assumed by the law-enforcing officers and the called "good white folks," who make no efforts to upbraid The Houston Informer and punish the guilty culpits, but merely pass it off as a closed incident. Whenever any mob takes the law into its hands and destroys human lives and physical property, such action is a criminal outrage upon law and order, an undermining of American ideals and institutions and an overthrow of constituted authority. These agencies are far worse sufferers than the unfortunate, hapless blacks who chance to be the victims of the mobs' Hindish fury and hellish horror. These recent mobocratic depredations in Texas and the South will most likely revive the agitation for a federal anti-lynching measure, but as long as the South, or any other section of this country, maintains a double standard of citizenship and decietizes Americans through class legislation because of their color, so long will this section and country witness such atrocious horrors. The members of those two mobs (and this is true with all Southern mobs) knew in advance that nothing would be done to punish them for their participation in these lynching orcies, due to the fact that the lynched persons were members of a race which has no voice in the election and selection of judges, prosecutors, sheriffs, peace and constabulary officers, and the fact that the black race is denied its elective franchise rights, through certain political devices and schemes, would be favorable to their cause and thus their set about their devilish and damnable task without the formality of trying to conceal their identity. Really, isn't it strange and rather inconsistent that the United States will go to almost any length to protect the life of an American citizen within its own domestic confines? Until the Negro becomes a political factor and helps to elect or oust public officials; until the black man becomes, in fact as well as in name, an American citizen and exercises such citizenship functions without lattice or hindrance, he will continue to be the hapless victim of both legal and illegal lynchings. In the face of such happenings, which are almost daily occurrences in the South, it seems a pity and tragedy that Southern Negroes are not more concerned concerning their own physical welfare, and that they will spend their energy in intra-racial fights, instead of combating and opposing, through orderly organized efforts; those forces which are so hostile and antagonistic to the race and so diametrically at variance with the provisions and warranties of the federal constitution. ALL HOUSTON SHOULD JOIN HANDS The local movement, sponsored by the Houston Business Men's Club, to raise sufficient funds to make possible a goodwill tour of the North by the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Club during August, appears to the Informer as an undertaking on which all Houston schools participate. This musical organization is neither professional nor commercial, having given unstintedly of its services for various causes in this community for the past seven years. Whether the program is a benefit performance for some local Negro welfare agency, some white or colored church or entertainment for guests of the city, this choral organization has given its services unselfishly, without money and without price. During its seven-year career, this club has raised over $10,000 in benefit concerts, according to the officers of the organization, with the major portion of this neat sum of money going to various charities. All Houston owes a debt of gratitude to this Negro musical organization, which can never be paid in mere dollars and cents; yet the financing of this proposed goodwill tour by the colored and white citizens and organizations of Houston—the first and only thing of its kind ever attempted by any group of Negro singers anywhere in the United States—will go a long way in showing the importance of this program to the part of our citizenry to have such a musical aggregation sing Houston's praises in other sections of the country. The novelty of such a goodwill junt, together with the type of music the club is capable of rendering for any and all occasions, would do much to place Houston on the map from an all-together different angle. The 60,000 population is given at 290,811 or nearly 300,000, and it is safe to say that there are upwards of 60,000 to 65,000 Negroes included in this latest enumeration. On a whole, the relations between the two locations here are very cordial and amicable, and what would be more fitting than to send a group of Negro singers to certain centers of the North and East as a concrete example of the wonderful spirit which has made Houston the most outstanding city in the entire Southwest? To add to this, the Federal Bureau of the Houston Business Menn's Club has voted to invite the National Negro Business League, meeting in Detroit during August, to hold its 1931 session in this city, and the Coleridge Taylor Choral Club will be used in this endeavor—provided the citizens of Houston rally to this cause and raise sufficient funds for this proposed trip. With a finance committee, headed by H. P. ("Horse Power") Carter and with such able assistants and workers as I. M. Terrell, Henry L. Mima, Alphonse Mills and G. W. Ries, the Informer can be expected to objectively should not be attained before the present month expires. The Houston Chamber of Commerce, through Vice-President and General Manager W. N. Bibton, has endorsed the proposed tour and is giving the undertaking its whole-souled backing and support. Negro business and professional men, racial organizations and enterprises, will be expected to help in this project, and if all will join hands and work cooperatively, the proposed tour should become a reality. With the club's recent spring musical festival was given for the express purpose of raising money for this proposed goodwill tour, sufficient funds were not realized therefrom to finance such a trip. In fact, the promoters did not expect to raise all the money through such a channel, but to make a nice beginning (which was done) and then ask the Houston public, whom this musical organization has served so faithfully and unselfishly all these years, to augment sufficient money to assure the trip. As the club will not be on a concert tour, strictly speaking, and that the money will not upon receipt from any contemplated programme en tour, sufficient money must therefore the trip must be obtained before the organization leaves Houston. While the club does not plan this trip until August, it is very necessary that the money be realized at once, so that definite arrangements can be made in advance both by the singers in getting off from their jobs and in working out details for stops and other matters incident to the trip. "Heavenly Houston" has never failed nor fallered in any movement which it has undertaken, for advancing the cause of this community, and designee that this is a rather novel and interesting film. The Infinite, the assistant musicians of both races will rally to this cause and raise such goodwill trip by the celebrated *COLORIER-Taylor Choral Club*, known as "Heavenly Houston's dancersizer" and rated as the "premier musical organization of the South." OUR POLITICAL PARSONS By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C. leadership of this new religious body will devote itself with singleness of moral and spiritual purpose to the betrayment of the race, it is easy to prophesy a glorious and glorious future. But if the politically ambitious leaders utilize this more perfect union of the church, they will fortune, then the more powerful the union, the more pliable the plight of the church and the race. I don't know just what Dr. Hawkins' newly organized National Negro League hopes to accomplish, but I don't know what he would for the clerical contingent. I would utter this word of citation: "Watch your spiritual steps." INVESTING FOR PROFIT By CARTER W. WESLEY The possibilities of investing for profit based on the long time pull* of $3,000 in Union Pacific stock in 1870 and $5,000 in Central Railroad of New York would now be $30,000 and $30,000 in Northern Railroad. Of course, the $3,000 we have been left in these stocks. It would have been low in 1870 and high in 1872, but in the bank until the panic of 1878 we have been sold in 1878 when the ket was up and carried a interest of 1878 when stock went down. In 1879, when stock went down, it will be noticed that the cycles are from about two to four years. The increases in the purchases and sales would be at the highest and highest prices, and the purchases and sales would be high and high of the respective years. Through study and knowledge an investment can be multiplied many times. The principal investment is very little risk and without any speculation, indicated before, banks, insurance companies and widows, who are dependent upon what they have must be invested in. His class selects bonds but bonds of at least Bbb rating. Though the appreciation in the interest rate is with good stocks, there is greater assurance that the principal invested in the income will be paid regularly. It is interesting to note the effect that the changing value of the dollar has on investments. From 1897 to 1902, the value of the dollar decreases to $14.5, which is the highest loss under less.¹ The case of theshares of the barclays, or Boston, illustrates the bearing of the dollar's changing value has on bonds. When the manufacturer carried in 1910, the wealth was in 1900, and the time to pay for the barclays was $25,000 a year. He had a twelve room house, four servings, a large car and could afford an extensive trip-and-entertained often every year, and the price of the barclays was $25,000 in some of the prices of the barclays had grisen so much—the dollar would buy so little—he had an interest, had to sell his large home and give up entertaining; because his money was only chilled, it is the only chilled to fixed definite amounts both at maturity and on interest dates. Without any fault of his, the actual value of this wealth had been but half. This is true only when the dollar is completing. When the dollar is appreciating, when the price of the barclays is getting cheaper, we call it the owner of bonds gets value without any effort on his part. In the case of banks, the insurance companies, it makes a different type of tax. The barclays are just payable, back dollars and it doesn't matter whether the dollar is buying more or less. It does matter to the person receiving the dollars, however. The barclays are not a part of a manufacturer, but had his money in the barclays and companies, in 1919, the dividends would have paid him $50,000 or just five¢ what they paid in 1910, or at the cost of the stock would have been at a rate of $100. It would be a price of "things" went up, since stock costs are eraph-is ownership of "things" is value would have gone up. The wet and dry issue is threatening the moral life of the nation. The Negro is the easiest victim. It is the most vulnerable. You can stand aloof by, and look on this holeau of destruction with indifference. All other issues now before the nation sink into moral inallegiance as compared with law or law enforcement. We were devoted to the standard of human rights as it used to be, this clerical zeal would be understandable. But experience of the past two years has shown that the human rights issue is trendy in the mind of the G. O. P. Formerly all authorities on investment held that bonds were for safety and stocks were for semi-speculative investment. While bonds will probably always be the back log of every investment program, the safety of diversification in stocks of established companies has been demonstrated without question. CHORAL CLUB TO SING AT BERING MEMORIAL For the third time this year, the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Club, popular Houston musical organization, will reorder a program at a white church, when the club gives a concert Tuesday, May 27-8 p. m., in the auditorium of Bering Memorial M. E. Church, Mulberry and Harold, Montroge. Previous programs have been given at First Prebyterian Church and St. Paul's M. E. Church, South. This club also appeared on program for the City Federation (white) in the auditorium of the new Merchants and Manufacturers building, Main Street viaduct, Thursday night. The two great Negro Methodist churches are now on the eve of merging into one gigantic religious body. This is a significant movement in the sphere of Christianity endower. It is hoped that this union will not run in numerical augmentation, but rather in the growth of the organization. The waning influences of the life of the race have calculated significance.
