BINGA STATE BANK TO REOPEN Baptists Stage Near Fight Baptists S Stormy Session Ends; Fred Morris Selected To Succeed Pierson The chief occurrences at the convention on the day have been: The recollection of Dr. L. K. Williams, pastor of "Olivetown Baptist Church," for the ninth consecutive time, as the president of the convention. Fred Morris was selected as auditor of the convention to succeed Edward D. Pierson, who was mysteriously murdered near Scottsboro, Ind., while in route to Chicago last spring after having made what many expected it was to be startling discoveries in the accounts of the officials of the Baptist publichousing house in Nashville, Tenn. The singing of the great golden jubilee choir under the direction of Geo Garner and his wife, Mrs. Netta Paul Iyn Garner, was the first of the six-year-old children of the Baptist Church presented Tuesday at the same time under the direction of Mrs. Manet Fowler of Texas. The decision to hold the next meeting of the convention in Atlanta, Ga., rather than in Philadelphia. The insistent plea in the speech of all the general officers present that immediate steps be taken to restore the denomination to peaceful normalcy. The circulation of rumors of treachery on the part of members of the board by unorganized partisans of certain candidates. The circulation of a pamphlet by Dr. Townsend, secretary of the Publications Board, explaining why he is not in attendance at the convention. The recollection of Dr. William and the Rev. J. C. Austin, defaulted runner-up in the election for president. As the saying goes, the reelection of Dr. Williams was not achieved without a struggle. The usual procedure of electing a president at one of the early opening days of the convention was sidetracked this year until what was thought to be a "convenient season" had arrived. Many "secret" conferences were held in order to build up for the proper kind of election atmosphere. At some of these conferences, the recaleitrants and "unduly alarmed" who have been pepping it up in the journals of the land for several months, had their ruffled feathers smoothed by appeals to their loyalty to the denomination. "Let's don't break up things, now, brothers," ran the current of the pleas. In response to these appeals, a number of the brethren agreed to lay down their arms and try to obtain the changes in organization program and management in other more peaceful ways. It was thus after they had made these pledges that it was thought ahead. Quite quickly and suddenly to more persons the matter of electing a president was brought up Wednesday at the meeting with the Kenyan government, the leader of the THE HOUSTON INFORMER convention, in the chair. The Rev. J. R. Poe made the customary motion to suspend the miles and reelect the president by acclamation. His motion was met with cheers and wills from the assembled delegates who had not been fed the soothing syrup of the "secret" conferences. So significant was the action of the delegates that Dr. Williams was not able to complete, but he was able to quite willing that others be placed in nomination. This apparent invitation was seared quickly by the Rev. H. P. Hawkins, formerly an assistant pastor under Williams who dismissed him. The Rev. Mr. Hawkins has been one of the most active persons organizing ministers in Chicago to expose the fortunes of the Rev. J. C. Austin, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist Church. Sometimes it has been felt that Bro. Hawkins was carrying Brother Austin along much faster than he desired to go. At any rate, the supreme moment for the Rev. Hawkins seemed to have arrived and he arose quickly to place the name of Dr. Austin in nomination. In all truth, it must be written that there was great cheering from the J. C. Austin church, and the same allege that hundreds of members of Dr. Williams' church were massed in front of the hall, in contra-vention of the rule that delegations should sit by states. Nomination of Dr. Austin brought to the front the chairman of the finance committee, Rev. W. S. Graham, who announced that the Pilgrim pastor had not paid his registration fee and was not, therefore, eligible for nomination. This technicality, intruded at much greater depth, prompted written calls "their own," Pandemionum did break loose. Patience was lost among the Lord's help in the fight against the plague, prevailed. On the platform, a flight of stairs led to the entrance in this struggle was a Rev. Mr. Pope of Calo, Ill., and Mr. Lorden of Bristol, England, but now in the tailoring. Rev. Pope is said to have taken blade and made for Mr. Lorden, where he was stationed. Rev. Pope and dispossessed him of the knife. One report had it that the knife was only the strong application of a policeman's stick to the top of his head could bring him around on this point it not substantiated. Rev. Pope on Mr. Lorden was only a highlight. It precipitated a stalk toward the door in which he shaded a number of lesser quarrels in which plaques were exchanged and the movement was made by Prof. B. Lorden, secretary, that Rev. William In delightful contradiction to the force assertion server has been nightly chorus. Prof. Garner's one-thousand opens with a grand congratulation on everything from Baptist aborts to even nightly she have spread peace and good feeling among the delegates with their spandrel renderers. Some effort to bring about a peaceful convention by Rev. William was thanked the convention for relecting him and had word to say regarding Dr. Austin that Dr. Austin was not against him. Dr. Austin replied to telling them that Dr. William was not against this interdiscipline of exchanging compassion and treaty. A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER FOR ALL THE PEOPLE HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 1930 DR. E. A. ETTER, physician and surgeon, Galveston, ex-president and delegate to the National Medical Association, which convened at Indianapolis, Ind., August 18, 32, has returned home. In speaking of the meeting in Indianapolis, Dr. Etters says that the most vital question of today concerns the association in Negro hospitals, which the association is trying to solve a problem which must be put up to the Negroes of America, and the Negroes must help them solve. "Will make a good report of the National Medical Association." Y Summer Camp Is Great Success' By G. T. STOCKS The Colored Young Men's Christian Summer Camp for boys in spring, Texas, August 13-22. A summer camp director and in his capacity as assistant to the executive secretary, and in his capacity as director of work, judging from the number of favorable comments that have already been received by visitors to the camp and others. Mr. Stocks conducted a course of study in "Military Leadership" of the Association Press studi- ship. Emphasis was laid on what happened at the camp might do upon the camp idea and instruction. The camp idea and instruction change the religions and educational program of the camp and gives the campers a wise call to his assistance several of the city whose addresses were short, apt, and appropriate to the boys that could do all appreciation. Athletics and aquatics were jointly founded by Fritz Frisch F. Stone, students of Howard University and Fisk universities, respectively. Students from time to time and evidence of their good work is shown from the campus, many of whom had never tried to swim before, only two returned uninterrupted, swimming in a swim hole, swimming in pool, and due to fear on the part of the boys and the inexperienced, to induce them to leave terra firma. Camp visitors were numerous and we visit prominently among them: the boys, who speak to the boys, arate at the state of Oklahoma. Though Mr. Young speaks to the boys, arate at the state of Oklahoma. In the water and leaving before the boys, he speaks to the words and words of praise for the cleanliness and diffs and what he expressed as the fine manner in which it was being The Y. M. C. A. acknowledges its debt of gratitude to the following clubs, organizations and individuals who sponsored one boy at camp (that is paid full camp fee for one boy): Ancient Order of Pilgrims, Eugene Bryant; Prof. James D. Ryan, George Rogers; Business Men's Club, Earl Bell; American Woodmen (Houston branch), Ambrose Hughes; Webster-Richardson Publishing Co., Leonard Richardson; Saffey Investment Co., Zack Elvin Spears; Miles W.

Our New Creed Editor's note: The management of the The Houston Informer believes that the time has come for a restatement of its policies and program in the Houston Informer and its Texas. Consistent with that belief the following is herewith submitted: The Houston Informer believes: That men appreciate each other most when they know most of the doings of their fellowmen. Therefore this paper opens its columns for the use of all classes and kinds of movements which have for their objective the progress of Negroes in Houston, in the domain of the war in Houston and in Texas each week with worldwide accomplishments of members of the race, and it hereby invites the cooperation of all men everywhere to the realization of this objective. That men's virtues should be magnified instead of their vices; that criticism should be constructive rather than destructive; that lasting progress is founded upon the agreement of men upon a common domain of their disagreement to the extent that cooperative action is hindered. That the generation of animosities which have their beginning in criticisms, which is not founded on a desire to promote the best as much as it is calculated to advertise the worst, is at all times to be avoided. The Informer proposes rather to seek to promote the best as much as possible, with self-self-respect and upright morality, civic and social procedure. That courage may be courteously shown; that real bravery should not be confused with helplessness; and that reasoning has been responsible for the accomplishment of more progress than That more emphasis should be placed upon the creation of wider contacts both within the Negro race and with the leaders of all races among the citizenry of Houston and of Texas; to the extent that we can foster a sense of unity to bear upon the impact of race programs and the creation of an atmosphere in which we can contribute to the extent of our ability to the progress of our community and state. That at least a working agreement with all our neighbors is absolutely necessary, that, while much has been done in the matter of individual successes among Houston and Texas Negroes, our success as a race group will depend upon our ability to develop collective efficiency, and to create organizations and institutions which will be able to work together to improve the status of Negroes. That Negroes should be more aggressively interested in the social and welfare agencies which operate in the city of Houston and in the state of Texas. As individuals and within our club organizations we should first hand knowledge of the Dorsacs, the Negroes, and the Negroes' community service, the Houston Social Service Bureau, the Community Chest, the Y. M. C. A, the Y. W. C. A, and all other agencies which seek to improve the social lot of under-privileged classes in Houston. That little or no progress along civil or social lines can be had until the Negroes of Houston, along with all other classes and races in its citizenry, have the right to vote in all of its elections and on all of its questions of public policy. With this idea in mind, The informer will seek at all times to promote every effort which will be held to well-directed opinions seeking to further this endeavor. That all Negro institutions which are directed toward the uplift of the race should be helped to success, and that, by the same token, the charismat and the fake should be exposed and repudiated. That intelligence and integrity make men and races great, and that, wherever found among us they should be cultivated and nurtured and their possessors helped into positions from which they make substantial contributions toward the progress of the group. And finally, The Informer believes that this is ground high enough and broad enough for all men, regardless of race, creed, gender, race, nationality, and national origin of Houston and of Texas to cooperate in the bringing into reality of this program of progress. Harris County Negro Democrats Stage Big Meeting The Harris County Negro Democrat Club, under the leadership of the mayor, has been a strong force in Glennore as secretary, seems to be gaining in strength despite the lack of support for the vice mayor Lubock (which had for its time been the most powerful man to compel the Harris County Democratic executive committee to permit Mr. White and all other current members of the committee and runoff elections) was decided to appoint Mr. White as Galveston's chief of civil Appeals at Galveston, the case having been appealed to the Supreme Court, which decided that their continued interest in the case should stand more than 180 men and women, members of the club, gathered at the Galveston County day afternoon to help formulate policies and to transact the business of President White called the meeting to order and presided over prayer being held at the White House. The first thing on program was the report of the Department of Defense on the功绩 of Dr. M. Sullivan. Dr. Shadowwsen is the originator and is the chairman of this group, which consists of 100 men who are giving advice to the balance of the expense of the Galveston primary case, including the expenses of prosecuting the case in the Supreme Court of the United States, added to the expense of the added to the club at this meeting, C. F. Richardson was called upon to explain to them the purposes of the club, in his imminent style. Among other things, Richardson stated that it was no longer regarded as an amoralous to see Negro democrats, and that Negroes should consider until they could vote in every election which played an important part in choosing officials and determining the policies of government. The principal address of the afternoon was made by Dr. H. E. Lee, who said all great things have started. We must get Negroes to the point where their common interests, and be proud of them, are ready to rally to the cause of Negroes, and we must be dissatisfied with our present situation and ally with the cause of the Galveston primary case. Music was furnished by the Good Home female quartet. Directors and Depositors In Joint Meeting—Oct. 1 Set For Date of Opening—New President To Head Reorganized Institution Chicago, Ill., Aug. 26.—(Spc.) financial responsibility attendant —According to information ob. upon reopening. VITAL TO RACE DAY CONDUCTS Chicago, Ill., Aug. 28—(Spc.) According to information obtained from one of the directors of the bank, the organization by the state bank examiner recently for examination and adjustment, plans for the early reorganization and reopening of the bank have progressed rapidly. In a meeting of the directors and stockholders of the institution called by the organization, the bank decided to reopen the bank on October 1. Although it has not been definitely stated, it is thought that some of the deposits in the bank have been devoted to share a part of the fi- PETER H. W. E. Miller, principal Booker T Washington High School, who left America on the S. S. de France about the first of June and visited several points of interest in England, France, Germany, Belgium and Holland, returned to Houston Monday afternoon. In an interview with an informer representative, Mr. Miller stated that every minute of his time was spent most pleasantly. His trip over was a very pleasing one, indeed, with only a slight illness. He spent nine and a half days in Paris, four days in London, visited the battle fields at Amiens and the Somme, spent 3 days in Brussels, as well as some time in Roussels and Cologne. The privilege of seeing the Passion Play at Oberammergau, he considers the high point of his trip. But he also considers the 100-mile ride down the Rhine from Cologne to Bingen worth much. After his return to America on August 1, he stayed a week in New York City, visited Niagara Falls and spent 16 days in Chicago, where he attended the sessions of the National Baptist Convention. He made his return trip from Europe on the Ile de France, which he considers the last word in steamship transportation. Detroit, Mich.—(ANP)—After deliberating and discussing the problem from every possible angle, members of the National Negro Business League, in the thirty-first annual session here last week, and that if the meeting is held in the pre-made profitable to Negro youth, certain definite stops must be taken in order to open up avenues of employment for them. With some 600 business and professional men present, from various sections of the country, problems faced by merchants were entered into and thrashed out thoroughly by experts. While all phases of merchandising came up for discussion, particular stress was paid to the grocer business. Ways and means of increasing sales of the independent grocer were set forth by such business specialists as John R. Bromwell of the United States Department of Commerce; Hampton Robb, sales manager of the Francis Legrett Company, New York City; Gorton James of the editorial staff of Business Week, and H. G. Nielhol of the W. T. Grant Company, New York City. Those who are actually engaged in the buying and selling of groceries and who from the success they have made "know their growth" who gave their concessions were the benefit of their own experiences were E. F. Lacey, prosperous merchant, Lexington, Kentucky, and Edwin Hurd of New York City. These speakers endorsed the organization of the Colored Merchants Association and pointed out that one of the most essential means of meeting competition is through organization, and cooperation.

Through sickness and health, through thick soup and thin though thick soup and thin though thick soup and thin Thou and thy companions. Surely thou art the creation of an infinite wisdom. Yea—though I pass through the valley of the shadow of the H. C. of L I will fear not. Rather will I masticate more. For, according to thy prophet Gletcher, the more I masticate the less food I require. Thereby savest I shekels to add to my store. Likewise savest I the shekels which otherwise would go to my physician, for is it not also written by the prophet, Mays, that three-fourths of all bodily ills make their entry through the mouth? Through the decayed and broken portions of the teeth. Through the sore and bleeding surfaces of the grums. Though the deeply hidden facial abeess on the root. And all those horrid things. But is it not also declared by all laws and the prophets, that Therefore will I honor them, and appreciate thee all the days of my life on this earth, which will be many.

To those who are contemplating entering some school of higher learning this fall, Texas offers a large field from which to choose. Houston has an exceptional opportunity for those who live here to send the Houston Colorado� Fund Collection to a limited, limited, limited school by the Houston Independent School District, where the first two years of college work is being offered with a faculty the equal of any colored junior college in the South. And with three high schools of Houston graduating hundreds of our boys and girls annually, this junior college is a God's blessing to those who feel unable to spend four years in some out-of-town college. At Marshall, there are two of the most outstanding college-based colleges in the country. Bishop and Wiley colleges, both of which have done a great work in raising the standard of citizenship in this and other states. At Tyler, there is Texas College, and at Austin is to be found two colleges, Samuel Huston and Tilloton, the latter being a seminary for the training of girls, while at Crockett is another similar seminary, Mary Allen. At Waco is another college, Paul Quinn. At either of the above named places, the colored boys and girls are given the opportunity of a training which will better fit them for useful citizens. Going further, at Nashville, Tenn., is to be found Fink University, which has done a noble work in the educational field for the Negro; at Atlanta, Georgia, we have Atlanta University and Morehouse College, both of which have contributed very largely to the advancement of Negro education. It is incumbent upon every parent in this state and Southland to see to it that his or her child is regular in attendance upon some school, throughout the entire school term. Too often the parent leaves this important matter of attending school up to the child, who is utterly unable to see the need of a thoroughly trained mind. Let every man and woman of our race who have children make it their imperative duty to see that their children are in school this fall. Let nothing interfere with the fulfillment of this duty.

PRATTIS (Staff Correspondent For ANP) Haiti is "Exhibit A" in the Negro's argument that, if left alone, he can keep step with modern progress. Therefore, the present condition and the future of Haiti affect world thought in regard to the Negro's very where and all Negroes must approach the problems of the little black republic with sympathy and in the spirit of helpfulness. But it will do no good for us to contend that Haiti has kept step or is doing so with other independent nations. Her faults, as well as her virtues, must be exposed. Of course, there are handicaps which in many cases are responsible for what appears to be a failure to accomplish what an individual or a nation should. Of Haiti's handicaps, I shall treat it in a later article. But there are other faults, having to do with lack of intelligence, character and energy, for which excuses ought not to be offered. There were close to a million souls in Haiti when it was a French colony, the richest in the world. It was a thriving, busy country. The products of the great plantations were exported throughout the world. Great factories were kept in operation. Roads were built all over the republic. Aqueducts, constructed by the French, carried water where it was needed. Haiti was a gem. Today there are two and one-half million the poorest countries and it is one of the poorest countries with exports amounting to only six million dollars a year. The man-made aqueducts, built by the French, and the aqueducts of independent Haiti, are no more the country that has undeniably been deteriorating. The people Haiti has not been imminent the spirit of progress. They have had decadent ideals. In a free country, they have maintained a existence of a small cultured group, of a small group of a degree or an illiterate mass of peasant. They have had a thousand years, the degree of leadership. It has been satisfied with its condition and taken so great care in the fields. The so-called elites of the country were the welfare of all the people of the labor of the mass provided that with enough to enjoy a certain amount of the elite group has been willing to give up for a generation. Haiti has just been patterning along and slipping peaceful. Sixty-five years ago, the American Negro was emancipated. His life was a curious one. Today a log cabin is a curiosity. The Haitian slave frowned and won his liberty. His abode then was a tattered The Haitian peasant has been allowed to exist in ignorance. There are not more than eight hundred words in the crazy-quilt creole that he speaks. He cannot read or write that. He comes into life, ambles peacefully along, enjoys his cockfights, works for his betters, and succumbs without remonstrance to some disease. He does not know that there is an outside world. He has no idea that he is a social problem, or an economic one. He has no worries. Worry to him must be a quality of the elite group. Up until recently, it has been socially improper for a member of the elite group to work. Education in the schools was classical and the outlets of educated Haitians were found in medicine, law, literature or politics. Haitians were not educated in the trades, for agriculture, or for business. Today the best mechanics in Haiti are Jamaicans. With some of the most fertile land in the world, there is not one good farmer in all Haiti among the Haitians. The best Haiti has to offer are not more than a dozen young Haitians who in recent years have studied theory in agricultural schools in the United States and in Europe. These young men are becoming the leaders in a movement to use the soil of their country. The business of Haiti is owned and operated by foreigners; Frenchmen, Germans, Syrians, Italians. Haitians complain that they have not money to do big business. But rich elite Haitians have enough money to go to France and live in the grand manner. As with the American Negro, it is hard to get the Haitian men of money to cooperate. The Haitian idolizes France, but it was France which helped America to obtain control of the republic. Most of the railroad bonds and most of the bank stock now owned by the National City Bank of New York was at one time held in France. The French owners turned their holdings loose, which amounted to making Haiti an economic vassal of the moneyed interests in the United States. France does not do anything to help Haiti, and sometimes one suspects that the mother country may be laughing at the troubles of the black republic. Haiti needs some big men to put her to work. She must stop her little family quarrels so that the people can work. Her people must be made ambitious. The members of the elite class must take off their coats and sweat some for their country.

The cars then were small, the seats uncomfortable, the handling of baggage abominable, schedules unheard of, and for sleeping at night, one carried his own rug and stretched out wherever and whenever he could. Not so now, for the roads have reduced the inconveniences to a minimum, established trunk lines that rival any of our own for speed, safety and comfort. Our trip from Paris to Rome was by train DeLuxe, all the Pullman cars of which gave each passenger the privacy of a compartment, with dinner attached and even the great pleasure of a morning's shower bath. The journey takes one-by-way of a portion of Switzerland beneath the lofty Alpe and through more tunnels than you can count, the one between France and Italy being more than 8 miles long. At Modane custom officials examine your passports and baggage; at Genoa you think of Columbus and Marconi, at Pisa you look out upon the Leaning Tower; you pass through fertile fields where the people are cultivating every available space of ground, while for miles you skirt the blue Mediterranean, the road sometimes clinging to craggy cliffs, and you draw back from the window for fear that you might topple out right into the sea below. At Rome, not caring to go with the Cook's conducted tour, five of us, Drs. Morris and Gomez, Dr. and Mrs. Lane of Lane College, Jackson, Tenn., and I got a car and were fortunate enough to secure as our guide Eugenio Mattiello, Cook courier of 35 years experience, who took us to a number of places off the usual Cook itineraries, places of great interest and seldom seen by the regular tourists, as well as the ruins usually visited. These excursions included the ancient ruins, a trip to Ostia, the seaport of the Ceasars, luncheon on the Mediterranean, an audience with the Pope, St. Peter's St. Paul's, St. John, Latheran, the Catacombs, Sancta Scala, the stairway from Pilot's judgment hall, brought to Rome by Empress Helena, the Forum, the Patheon, the Colossum, the new Forums (they are just now excavating the Palatin Hill), the tower in which Nero is said to have been fiddling during the burning of Rome, the Apian Way and the spot where Peter on fleeing from Rome met the Master in a vision and exclaimed, "Quo Vadis Domini," the old Roman Wall, the arches of triumph erected to Rome's victorious generals, and the famous fountain into which PLUKC WILL STRAIGH PLUKO WILL STRAIGHTEN YOUR HAIR TRY IT TODAY!

How one could write of these things and how the imagination runs riot as you think of the whip of the slave driver, the rattle of chariots or the tramp of the Roman legions. But you have read so much about them that a further description of them is like "bringing coals to Newcastle." From Rome we went to Innsbruck, Austria, on our way to Oberammergau. The route is along some of the most picturesque scenery in the world. The Tyrol Mountains rise to dizzy heights and here and there you see castles capping lofty peaks overlooking the valleys below. We saw under cultivation every foot of tillable soil along the valey and up the mountain sides. It was haymaking time and the fields were full of men, women, children, "raking the meadows, sweet with hay," Some of the fields were right up slanting mountain sweeps, where we saw men swinging scythes and wielding forks on slopes so steep that I am sure if these tools had slipped out of their hands they would have gone slithering down to the levels below. We arrived at the quaint village of Oberammergau on the evening of July 31, and were housed at the home of Wazonmeister Johann Koehler near the entrance of the great hall, where the play is enacted. On August 1, we attended the play. It begins at 8:30 p.m. and is played in an internship of two hours for lunch. The play is so very aborable that one does not note the presence of a girl in the Old Testament, which are types in the events of the life of Christ, are given in tabular form, and then the form is rewritten to note that one does not breathless. Indeed, one woman became hysterical and had to be carried to My mind, the man who played Judas did the best acting, although he was not the only person rather interesting that many of the visitors refused to stop in the hose of the river. The morning of August 2, we left Oberammergau for Munich, where we remained until Monday. During our stay in Munich, we had a case of indigestion, that almost became acute. A German doctor made a diagnosis, and sent his bill, Dr. Morris and Giesemann got it better at once. We were able to schedule time, where we attended the greatest Christian Endeavour Convention, and we met a brotherhood it has ever been my experience to observe at to say I have been TO ERECT BUILDING New Orleans, La.—(ANP)—The Standard Life Insurance Company announces its plans to erect an office in the 100 block of Shrubber St. 80, approximately 1,500 square feet.

ROGERS Noted Author and Correspondent The Concluding Part In the person of Douglass, as was said, and its relentless and fierce entered the fight against slavery. To hostile audiences he took on the task of organizing a mass rally. THE FIGHT At Pendleion, Indiana, the mob tore down the platform on which he was speaking; when it attacked him he defended himself with a club. Up and down the Northern states he went thundering against it. He was mobbed in Faneuil Hall, Boston, and at Harrisburg, Pa. At Richmond, Ind., he was greeted with a shower of rotten eggs. At Pendleton, Ind., the mob tore down the platform on which he was speaking. When the mob attacked him, he defended himself with a club until his arm was broken and he was battered into unconsciousness. When he regained it, with his arm in a sling, he insisted on speaking again. During the anti-draft riots in New York City when the mob was attacking every rehored person, Douglass faced it undaunted. His courage stood as firm as the pigment in his skin. During all this time he was running the risk of being caught and returned to his master. This danger he At Pendleton, Indiana, the man it attack had somewhat avoided by using another name and giving another birthplace. But the pro-slavery faction was challenging him as a fraud. To prove that he was telling the truth, Douglas boldly wrote his autobiography, giving all details. The book had a tremendous sale but it put the slavers on his track and he fled to England. Besides, he had long been wanting to go there to strengthen the anti-slavery cause. On the way over he came near losing his life. In a speech he spoke with his accustomed fourlessness against slavery, and a party of incensed Southerners attempted to toss him overboard. But it developed that they had really done him a good turn. The English papers took up the incident and gave him tremendous publicity. The greatest in the land invited him to their homes. Cobden, Brougham, Peel, Dieracil, great British orators, welcomed him. He swept England with the fire of his oratory. Whenever he spoke it was like a war bugle ordering the charge. For the first time, too, he knew what it was to be a real man. Even while Americans, who would not have noticed him at home, sought him out now, some of them in the hope of getting acquainted through him with the English. Once while speaking in the House of Commons with Lord Morpeth, a certain minister, who he said would never have recognized him at home, came up to him and asked him to produce him to the lord. When he spoke of returning to English persuasion asked him to lead English persuasion him a home as long as he lived, he moved strong enough to make him desert his people. "Whether a slave or free man, and there I mean to appl and be spent in the cause of my outraged brother, that he said 'countrymen,' not when his English friends found out that he could not be persuaded, they gave him 20,000 dollars to his freedom, the remainder was to报纸 a newspaper. "Back in America the free-born back in England founded the North Star, a paper for freedom, but equality. This step was necessary as the abolitionists were opposed equally, some of them became free, others it would be doubled, however, beliefled firmly in the equality of all men. "I know that there is a human problem. He saw the slave and the freedom not as a trymen of the proudest in the land. He contended that the constitution was a law of the land, firmly imposed the back-to-Africa policy, and black man was his country, America and he predeceded Booker T. W.

By this time he had become, in himself, the most ef- fective advocate among the thousands. The pres-law party party hit him more anywhere. Another who was greatly inspired by Dougess was John Brown, his home. When John Brown was about to murder him on Harper Ferry, he but Douglas realizing that it would matter rather than on slavery, refused most likely also realigned the hope- fulness. Nevertheless, the raid brought him to trouble, and he was forced to land. His name had been found among who had been connected with Brown being romped up, at the time this he had been adding slaves to the prisoner. He was a station-matter on the United States government, as the South into Canada, was called. A strongly for the cause, returning to America when the Green Party in a different light. When was actually be- gan, he throws his whole weight into "Union and Emancipation; Abolition Consistent with his policy of equality, he demanded that colored persons be treated with respect and not merely as servants and laborers. Northern color prejudice precludes openness to the population, the people, it and as the need of men grew with thousands of white men deserting the North, he was forced to accept them It was these colored soldiers, as they who turned the tide of battle at Haiti, Douglas helped to raise the 54th son of his wife, Charles Lewis, being among the first to enlist. He himself chose his son, Charles Lewis, being among the first to enlist. He himself chose to General Thomas by Secretary of War Stanton; the latter, however, did keep his promise, although he did not spend much time. The colored soldiers now in the army, the next tank was to see that they were fairly treated. The policy of the French, prosecution, as Horace Greely said at the time: "Every black soldier now goes to battle with a halter about his Douglass insisted that the North THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 1930 THE BOSTON EDITOR Paul Laurence Dunbar, the post, close personal friend of Frederick Douglass. should retaliate on such occasions further, that the colored soldier should be treated with respect and the same opportunity for promotion. Stubbily be fought for this, and was a frequent visitor at the White House, at first but, at the New York dawn began to prove their worth. Lincoln learns to appreciate the white man's courage and the moments of the conflict would sometimes aid for him. One one occasion desert their masters as he felt that to desert their masters as he felt that to desert the South, he second inauguration Douglas was, however, barred at the door because of his color. A gentleman, who knew him well, happened to meet him with himself. After his visit Lincoln, sitting in the white man's cape, came to meet him. "Here comes my friend, Douglas," he said. "He is the man I knew." which he was speaking; when h a club. think of my speech?" "Mr. Lincoln," replied Douglass, "I must not detain you with my poor country. There are thousands waiting to shake your hand." "No, no, answered Lincoln, "you are little. There's no man in the country whose opinion I wish more than yours. I want to know what you think of it. Mr. Lincoln, responded Douglass, "that was a sacred effort." But for Douglass also the Negro might not have become a citizen at least when he did. President Johnson's idea was to get the South back. into the union by giving it as free a hand as possible with the freedmen. Douglass saw where this would lead to, and demanded the ballot. The liberty of America, he said, depended on three boxes: the ballotbox the jurybox and the catridgebox. “From the first,” said Douglass, “I saw no chance of bettering the condition of the freedman until he should cease to be a freedman and become a citizen. I insisted that there was no safety for him or anybody else in America outside the American government. . . .” “I set myself to work with whatever force I possessed to secure this power for the recently emancipated millions.” This proposition was received as ridiculous even by most of the abolitionists. Even Garrison, himself, had to be won over to the idea by Wendell Phillips. With the winning of the ballot, Douglass' greatest task was done. But there were honors, such as they were, in store for him. He served in the following posts: U. S. commissioner to San Domingo; minister to Haiti; member of the legislative council of the District of Columbia; presidential elector of New York, and bore the vote of that state for Grant to Waller, and that the marchant of the District of Columbia in which post he officiated at the inauguration of President Garfield. At one Republican convention he was one of those named for the president. Later, he gave lectures on "Self-Made Men," that thrilled black and white alike. In 1871 he delivered an address at Arlington Cemetery at which President Grant was present, in 1876 at the unveiling of the Freedmen's Monument in Washington, he was the orator of the occasion. President Grant, his cabinet and other digitalitaries were present. This speech was printed and sold over the nation. In 1886 he toured Europe and visited Egypt. Himself and Mrs. Douglas were invited to all public functions at the White House by President Cleveland. His declining years were spent on his property, Cedar Hill, at Anacostia, D. C., on land formerly owned by an aristocrat who had decreed that neither mulatto, Negro nor Irishman should own a foot of his land. Here surrounded by his books and souvenir, he devoted himself to the study of music, of which he was passionately fond. Here, also, national and international personages visited him. He became known as "the Sage of Anacostia." Many other interesting stories could be told of him, but the following describes the mention. After the war, he longed to visit his friends in Maryland but he was regarded as an outlaw. Many years later, however, he was permitted to do so. Among those he saw was his cruel master, Thomas Auld. Auld, povertystricken, lay on his death bed with paralysis. Douglass greeted the dying man kindly and freely forgave him. When Auld addressed him as "Marshal Douglass," Douglass replied: "Not Marshal Douglass, but Frederick." This touching way of showing his forgiveness was later construed as subservience by Douglass' enemies among the colored people, many of whom never forgave him for his second marriage. Who, when he had his name in the leading papers of the country thanks to the fact that he had once owned Douglass. He was received as a privileged character almost everywhere in the North, but that did not prevent his being snubbed by two colored dining car waiters who did not wish to attend him because of his color. Writing of this in his autobiography, Douglass said: "In their eyes I saw Fred Douglass, suddenly, and possibly undeservedly, lifted above them. The fact that I was colored and they were colored had so long made us equal that the contradiction now presented was too much. After all, I have no blame for Sam and Garrett. They were trained in the school of sensitivity to be-liven that only white men were entitled to be waited upon by colored men." "While the rank and file of our people quote with much vehemence the doctrine of human equality, they are among the first to deny it and denounce it in practice." Having won the vote for the black man, Douglass threw himself into the fight to win it for the women. But the end had come. On February 20, 1896, after addressing a woman's suffrage convention, he returned home to dinner, all apparently in the best of health in spite of his seventy-eight years. Dinner finished, he stopped in the hallway to relate with his usual enthusiasm, the events of the day. Suddenly he dropped to his knees, his hands clasped. Mrs. Douglass thought he was only acting but he sank lower and lower, and finally tumbling to the floor, breathed his last. The press of the civilized world mourned his loss and carried stirring eulogies of him. Memorial services were held for him in many parts of the nation, while the city of Rochester voted to suspend business at his burial. A monument, costing $10,000 was also erected there in his honor. Of this sum $1,000 was donated by the state, and a like sum by the republic of Haiti. Theodore Roosevelt was the orator of the occasion. The Northern press, as was said, spoke in highest terms of him, though but one or two of the many hundred editorials on him can be quoted. The Chicago western newspaper Union said: "Physically, mentally and morally, Mr. Douglass was a grand specimen of manhood, and any race might be proud to claim him as a representative.... As an orator and a thinker he ranked with the best in the land; though slave-born and excluded from the advantages of education he had a command of the English language that was marvelous in its perfection.... Sneered at, his stemmed, mobbed, stoned, assaulted; he stemmed, the title and fame of conqueror. When it was dangerous for white men even to speak the truth on the question of slavery, he did not equivocate or palliate evil with soft words. He lifted his voice like a trumpet and told the people of their transgressions." The Narragansett Times said: "Slave, fugitive, crusader, champion, achiever of truest success, wielder of vast usefulness, commander of the world's respect, yet with all of his honors, humble, gentle, as are all the truly great." "In his immense ascent from the lowest depths of condition where the masses were reached not even by the faintest gleam of hope to the highest of meritorious and even majestic triumph, in his noble-aspirations and upward mountings, his final complete and serene success, the life of this man affords one of the most satisfying illustrations of high human realization that appears in the history of the whole world." Paul Laurence Dunbar, whom he mentioned, wrote: "And he was no soft-tongued apologist." The sunlight of his truth dispelled the mist in his hold relief each darkened cloud. To and save crime he gave their prophecy and hurled at evil what was evil's treason. The Torellon Tittle wrote: "I knew the noblest giants of my day and he of them, strong amid the storms. Some day when the mists of color will have been bleached, Douglas will be equal of any great man this nation has produced, and an inspiration for him. The Negroes of America own the world and would have been much worse for them than they are today. REDUCES COST OF MARRIAGE Memphis, Twem - (ANP) - The Rev. James T.

CHICAGO LEADERS SUPREME LIBERTY ATTEND CONFAB ISSUES POLICY ON ANENT PICKETING A C M E COMPANY Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—As a result of the picketing of three stores of the Woolworth Company located in the Southside colored district, a group of colored leaders were called into a conference Friday morning with E. H. Williams, white, attorney representing the western district of Woolworth stores. The individuals present, who were invited to the conference by Attorney Adam E. Patterson, were: Dr. Harold Kingsley, pastor of Good Shepherd Congregational Church, and director of Negro work of the Congregational Churches of America; Mrs. Maude E. Lawrence, former civic secretary for the Chicago Urban League; Herman E. Moore, president of the Cook County Bar Association; Chandler Owen, publicist; John B. French, former member of the Illinois Industrial Commission; Dr. Bernardo Ruis of the Universal Negro Improvement Association; E. T. Davis, employment agency director, and a representative of the Associated Negro Press. The consensus of opinion was that the pickets placed at the stores had created a problem for the Woolworth Company which it was desirous of solving with the least friction possible. The picketing and resultant boycott are an outgrowth of the fight conducted by the Chicago Whip to place Negro employees in sores which are supported by Negro patronage. Mr. Williams, for the Woolworth company, applauded that there were three women in the company rules regarding seniority, and that the company accepted the demand that it place a force of collar girls in all the rooms, and second, that the company was not allowed to pay in the matter as long as the controversy was present. The person in charge of the picketing campaign was made that the charge was made that they had demanded money from the Woolworth company before agreeing to withdraw the expenses of the picketing so far.

SUPREME LIBERTY ISSUES POLICY ON A CME COMPANY Jefferson City—(ANP)—Announcement was made here today by James K. Coolidge, general counsel for the Missouri insurance department that the business of the Ame Life Insurance Company of Kansas City, Mo., has been reinsured by the Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company of Chicago, Illinois. The Ame Life Insurance Company is the company that was established by the late Heman E. Perry, who expected to stage a comeback in the insurance world through its operation. Mr. Perry died just prior to the licensing of the company by the insurance department, being found dead in the bathroom the morning after he had outfitted the home office and while the license was in the malls undelivered to the company. He had subsequently been succeeded as president by James A. B. Johnson, the old Standard Life Insurance Company, and he was able to continue the work after Mr. Perry's death. Due to the economic downturn, it was able to put the company on a basis of operation and it became necessary to reinforce the business accounting to BANDITS STAGE HOLDUP AT NEW PROVIDENT HOSPITAL Chicago, III.—(ANP) —Two drunk men played at the Chicago Lying-In Hospital early Monday and robbed them of their equipment and attended a George Hughes, a clerk, was knocked unconscious when he tried to ooze the blood of the robbers.

BUTY TREATMENT MENTMENT WATER STREET, NEW YORK, CITY PAGE SEVEN The Houston Informer A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER FOR ALL THE PEOPLE PREACHER TALKS TO THE BUSINESS MAN MEXIA THE HOUSTON INFORMER A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER FOR ALL THE PEOPLE Rev. Samuel Horace James is a native Texan who completed his education and went North to take charge of a church. If one is to judge from his statements to a group of Houston business men this week, he has learned largely and in time to come will contribute helpfully to the development of the Negro church. He believes that the Negro church has not included in its program the work of the African-American church sufficiently to live. He believes that the greater stress in the Negro church has been placed on dying and on reaping a reward in Heaven consisting largely of rest and freedom from the struggles of the world. He believes that more than as trials placed in the way of men by a God who makes mock of His own creatures. Rev. James declared, among other things, that "the Negro church needs to become a more potent factor in society by spreading its program beyond its own walls. Its instruments in places in which to preach are by no means warranted." Published every Saturday by the Webster-Richardson Publishing Company Inc., 409-411.

The Informer is interested in the development of the church as one of the institutions which must contribute to the fuller development of its race as such and it takes this opportunity to comment on this issue and to explain why it commends his philosophy to the ministry of Texas in the hope that its members may begin to study the newer trends in the church. The Informer is also into which the average Negro church group in this state has fallen. The Informer is mindful also of the fact that from practically every pulpit in this part of the country there goes a wall of people who are not interested in the gram of the church. Pastors berate the wayward tendencies of the young and prophesy dire and dreadful things which are to come to pass if tendencies are not changed.

INTELLIGENCE AND INTEGENTITY MAKE MEN AND RACES GREAT Human nature has not changed since the days of the founders of the race. Men will always be seeking a solace of soul and a philosophy which will be sufficient for them in the times of adversity. They believe more definitely now in the philosophy of the community than in the philosophy of the individual ever before and they are willing to join whole-heartedly in attempts to make that philosophy the property of men generally. They will contribute to virile programs of betterment for the community as such. But mankind has past or is passing the burden of the community. It is the less practical. A church program which seeks to better humanity, like all other programs of progress, will not lack support. Human nature remains the same; but the minds of men which have become attuned to days of electric lights, sanitary sewers, airplanes and radio cannot be stimulated solely by the philosophies and services served their fathers in the days of ox-cartes and kerosene lamps. HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, AUGUST 30, 1930 IMPORTANCE OF THE TEXAS PRIMARY "Sterling Wins Governorship." These were the words with which one of the leading dallies of Texas heralded the fact that Ross Sterling, South Texas candidate for the Democratic nomination had beaten his opponent in the run-off. It did not state that he had won the Democratic nomination but that he had won the governorship of the State of Texas. And there are few who mattered. But for Negroes and for all thinking persons there should be much food for thought in such an announcement. It is true that the successful candidate for the Democratic nomination has automatically won the governorship of this and practically all Southern states. And yet, yet些 who oppose the voting of Negroes in Democratic primaries will attempt to say that primaries are not the election as such but that they are only the attempt to select the standard bearer of a particular party. This selection without regard to the actual outcome of the primary pleats disfranchisement and can only be seen as such by fair minded men. THE SURVEY FUND IS COMPLETE More than a year ago Negro Houston, aided in spirit by the Houston Chamber of Commerce and the Interracial Committee, decided to know more about the actual situation as it pertained to the race as such. It undertook to employ Jesse O. Thomas, a former student of the University, to the city and to make a survey of the situation. The first funds for this purpose were raised by popular subscription and the study was made by Mr. Thomas. The committee now announces that as the result of the last three efforts, the funds for the publication of the work have been raised. The first block dance ever held by members of our race in Houston, a huge whistle, the lawn of a public spirited citizen and a midnight "ramble" held at the Lincoln Theatre finished this task of a year's duration. "Stirling Winn Governorship!" And yet there were more than 150,000 Negroes in Texas who were deprived of the right to vote for him or for his opponent, despite the fact that many of them were as deeply Democratic in party as were many of the thousands who voted for the two candidates into the primaries only to be thrown back into their state of disfranchise by the dictum of committees which were aided and abetted by the work of a Legislature whose law of a few years ago was sharply tinged and colored with prejudice pure and simple. Technicalities in the law and peculiar quirks in the legal machinery make the continuation of this disastrous scheme possible. It is truly unforgiving and short simple justice. Negro Houston needs to feel rather proud of this, its first real contribution to actual knowledge of itself and its surroundings. The fact that the city is more likely to be will be the opportunity for more efficiently casting a community program and for more effectively moving forward in a cooperative war. The fact that all of the funds were raised by memorial donations is a sign that the city is willing to make to the city group more proud of itself and more confident of its ability to do the necessary things for itself. The city is also confident that the citizenry at large is to be congratulated on this forward step. How long will this situation continue to maintain? Just as long as Negroes do not see the value in keeping eternally at the job of breaking through this wall of political prejudice and of making of their efforts a task to which they dedicate all of their energies and strength, they must become a sort of fetish which is not a threat to the institution. It is a sort of justice, without the accomplishment of which there can be no peace of mind or security of life in any community. Not only should the thought of the slavery which is to come unless this barrier is broken down, bear us through any series of disappointments which may be our* in this fight, but the knowledge that we are not going to be able to survive unless we guarantee freedom to them, must spur us on to still greater sacrifices that this condition may be removed. How well Negro Houston does what it does and the extent to which it proceeds intelligently will depend solely on the vision and actual knowledge of conditions of those who essay to correct the situation. It is important to have a social. Hit or miss methods have long since had their day. To "feel" that the situation was "so and so" is not enough in these days and times. We must know. How many Negro property owners are there in Houston. What is the Negro school population? How many churches are there? How many clubs are there? What percent of the Negro citizenry pays its Poll Tax each year? In what class are the majority of Negro homes? What is the activity of water and gas are concerned? All of these facts must be known before any intelligently constructive program can be launched. Many of these very facts will be found in the survey which is to be distributed to the welfare and social agencies of the city and state. What are the schools as well as the schools and libraries. It is the first attempt at a Negro "source book" which Houston Negroes have ever made. The Informer itself will use it largely and it hereby expresses its thanks to those who were responsible for its completion. It also informs those whose energy and whose funds have gone into making these facts public, than the consistent and constant use of the facts which the study contains in mapping out more ambitious programs which should be furthered in a more highly cooperative NO RACE ISSUE IN THIS PRIMARY Despite the fact that Negroes were not allowed to vote as a group in the recent primaries, they nevertheless watched the campaign with an interest which was heightened all the more by the fact that neither of the candidates had any prospect to save the state from a black invasion by votar for him. It marks the first time in many years that the Negro question did not intrude markedly into the discussion of public questions. The Informer feels that in so far as this was true, the campaign was not concerned with the 600,000 Negroes of Texas are concerned, they have more respect for the incoming governor and for his opponent in the primaries than they have had for candidates in a long time. They believe that at no time in recent years has there been the least necessity for such appeals to prejudice as were made in the majority of the campaigns in the primaries. They believe that it definitely frowns down upon those candidates who seek to build themselves up to the point that they may be elected to public office at the expense of the goodwill of the two groups which must live side by side within this state, and who must work hard in no far as it is possible for the common good of all concerned. EMANCIPATION PARK No more concrete argument for the creation of more parks and playgrounds for Negroes is to be found than Emancipation Park on Dowling Street which, since its renovation, has become the center of the community. The parks in up search of diversion and the profitable use of their leisure time. Tennis courts are in constant use; the lawn is always filled with those who discuss the topics of the day as they relax. The washing pool is filled with happy youngsters. Periodically a hardlionium is used by organizations which seek a meeting place. It is literally true that right thinking and upright civic and social procedure must finally become the rule in all things public and private if this nation is to endure. It is also true that exertion of the right to be free from the fabric of a civilization must be free to make as great contribution to its progress as their abilities will warrant. And it cannot be reasoned that the South is any exception to the general rule of the rule of the South, because those whose sole appeal is to the bases instincts of men are the greatest enemies to society and to their community. And the fact that such demagogues have seemed, in time past to have been the rule in Southern politics rather than in North, is not because of the demagoguery of that type, worthy of comment. The Informer realizes that even such comment as this is rather a "left-handed" compliment to Texas politics and politicians. But in the absence of such comment, we are democratic procedure on which to comment it ventures this. Time was when this place had no such reputation or patronage. But with the beautification and improvement which has been done in recent months, it has become a place of beauty and a joy to the whole neighborhood. And more than that, it is a fine adjective. It is not only in so far as it has made this place available for its Negro citizens, has the right to feel that it is becoming progressive. But a single park will not suffice for a whole group of 60,000 which is scattered all through the city. There should be other parks and playgrounds. And on the basis of per capita use in proportion to the dollars expended, certainly the city authorities cannot argue that their refusal to provide other parks could be justified by their experiences with Emancipation Park have been unfortunate.
