C.—(ANP)—The Southern Association of Colleges (white) is to make inspections of about 16 Negro universities and colleges in the South within the near future. This is the information which has become public in some parts of this section. The Southern Association is the only association of colleges, which has barred Negro schools from its rating board tests, and it is understood that government pressure has been brought to bear upon it, and the result is that it is making inspection trips to a number of Negro universities during this month. The failure of the association to rate Negro schools has been a paramount obstacle in the path of developing higher education which would gain recognition; many schools in the South have been unable to add graduate schools to their work and also medical schools which have been contemplated have not been realised due to the lack of recognition of the present schools of arts and sciences. The Association of Colleges for Nursing in gaining this advantage for the schools in its membership; having the Southern Association until it broke down the barriers and paved the system for Southern colleges. The system for Southern colleges means that Southern schools can now standardize their courses and add graduate schools to eliminate Southern schools going to Northern colleges master of arts degree. For the foundation of medical schools in Negro universities, which at the present time are the only institutions of Negro youth; on account of the extremely severe requirements in the medical schools to race, and the lack of sufficient resources, the already existing medical schools. The inspection is to begin in September and it is not known how long the South, but it is understood that a benefit of these inspections, and all the best possible showings, make the very best possible showings. NEGROES DENIED RIGHTS IN USE OF EASTERN BEACH New York City.—An investigation of the attempted segregation of Neogroes from bathing beaches in front of hotels at Atlantic City, N. J., undertaken by Walter White, acting secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, discloses that the attempted segregation has no justification in law inasmuch as the beach belongs to all the people. Returned to New York from his visit to Atlantic City, Mr. White made the following statement: "There have been no proper bathing accommodations for colored people in Atlantic City since the closing of Wall's bathhouses. Although by the terms of the city charter, the beach front belongs to all the people and may be used by them, some of the hotels have employed special colored police to direct colored people away from the beach in front of the hotels to a less desirable part where there is no shade under the boardwalk and where such shade can be had only by renting beach umbrellas." The special police, uniformed and paid by the hotels, had no authority to expel colored people from any part of the beach, but many colored people who did not know their rights moved away when these police requested them. Some of the colored policemen declined to do this work of segregation. Unfortunately many colored people in Atlantic City hold political positions that are not supported by the hotels or through the political process, failed to raise their voices in protest. But the mans of colored people in AL-ten were not supported by the colored hotels and still were. THE HOUSTON INFORMER Prominent Citizen Insulted By 'Smart' Local Traffic Cop While Mr. Lola Brady was parked on Main Street in front of Levy's store, she was accepted by a city police officer.

The police officer returned to the car and said to Mr. Brady and her sister, who was with her, "You are not any business on Main Street, you engaged to buy an expensive coint, and was looking at the fall window, you got to the pattern she would select the next day, when she was to get the coat.

Mr. White whitie in Atlantic City, Mr. White, brother of the brother, Mr. Harry Bachrach, who admitted endorsing the segregation program, and Mr. Harry Bachrach, who received protests against it. Therupon Mr. White people had been molested by the special police and that fear of losing people had been silenced. Congressman Bachrach expressed resentment that "outliers" should mediate in the segregation is At a recent "harrym dinner," held in City, Mr. White reported, City Manager Emerson Richards said plainly he was not being held among the local white citizens, and that white people were not being held in the city, that results as reported, because of colored burdens, but in order to get the city to allow them to be assumed responsibility for endorsing the segregation efforts.

A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER FOR ALL THE PEOPLE HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, SEPT. 13, 130 could go on Main Street. If they had business and was not disturbing the peace, and that she would take his number and go to the chief of police and see why she had to get off Main Street. The officer said, "Go ahead and see what you'll get." She took his number and went to the station. The captain on duty was busy and she went home and called. The captain had gone off duty at eleven. The captain on duty told her to report the matter to report the matter to the captain over the phone, and that he would not come on until the next day at three. In the meantime a committee of business men of Houston waited upon the chief of police. The chief promised to investigate it. So far, no word has come from the chief of police. Mrs. Brady is one of our wealthiest citizens. She not only owns her home, which is a modern seven-room brick, but she owns other real estate in Houston. Negro citizens are disturbed over this menace to the rights of freedom. Many have called The Informer office for information, and to express protest. The Informer awaits the chief of police's reaction. It will keep the readers advised through the editorial columns. RUSSIA DEPORTS AMERICANS FOR RACE PREJUDICE New York City.—(ANP)—Evidence is contained in dispatches from Moscow, published in the daily paper here, that Russia intends to let the world, the United States to the country's notwithstanding, understand that, whether she be right or wrong, she means what she says in her approach to the social and racial problems of the world. That indication is contained in the stories of the recent action taken by the Russian courts against two white Americans, Lemuel Lewis, Detroit, and another named Brown, from Toledo, Ohio, who previously had attacked an American Negro in Moscow, ostensibly because he impacted by their American prejudice, they had resented the sight of the liberties enjoyed by Negroes in Russia. One report of the trial states that the men were sentenced to jail for two years, but that the sentences were suspended and the men ordered deported from the country and baused from reentry for ten years. The 2-year penalty was invoked under paragraph 59 of the criminal code, covering "national chauvinism" or perverted patriotism. The sentences were suspended, it is said, because the guilty men were foreigners "imbued with the spirit of race prejudice." That white Americans are making ugly spectacles of themselves in foreign countries were further shown in dispatches a few days ago recounting the invitation of France to William Randolph Hearst to "get out of the country."

NEGRO WOMAN DEFIES WHITES; WILL NOT MOVE NEGRO WOMAN DEFIES WHITES; WILL NOT MOVE Philadelphia, Pa. —(ANP) A short ago, age 40, William Glick, of Elk Grove, Calif., made a remarkable piece of property located near Quellen, Ms. Quellen took possession of the house during the month of July, 1995, when she began to mend it, to such extent that she called upon the local church to help her. There were those whites to have the neighborhood only did they throw bricks and other missiles through the windows, but, in the end, they were thwarted, because the bomb refused to explode. However, in a final attempt, she was seen to hurt a light-bombed escape. In a few minutes the entire house was broken, and when houses for several blocks were rocked by the terrific explosion, Glick was shown in his house at the time, and he was able to escape this episode, a day or so ago, the police described as "desperate measures" would be taken he immediately made his colorful MASS MEETING AT ODD FELLOWS' TEMPLE SUNDAY The colored working citizens of Houston and Harris County are called to meet in a mass meeting at the Odd Fellows Temple, Tuesday night, at 8 o'clock, under the auspices of the Colored Business and Laboring Men's Association. The purpose of this meeting, according to C. W. Rice, president and manager of the association, is the beginning of an educational campaign to explain to the colored workers the seriousness of the grave unemployment situation that prevails throughout the country and to urge the colored workers to appreciate their job and give the best service possible. Mr. Rice states that the survey shows that the average colored workers have given very little consideration or thought to the unemployment conditions until they have been dismissed from their jobs. It also shows that the majority of Negro business and professional people are unmining of the danger that the situation will have on the undermining of the progress of Negro business enterprises. Lorenza J. Green of New York City, who is touring the country in the study of the race problems and has just published a book on the Negro wage earner, will be the principal speaker at this meeting. Townsends Will Not Go To Indiana Town To Face Murder Trial Nashville, Tenn.—(ANP)—Governer Horton refused to grant the extinction of Dr. A. M. Townsend, Sr., his son, Dr. A. M. Townsend, Jr., the hearing held here Thursday after Dr. Townsend and his son were indicted in the state of Indiana on charges of felony, to wit, murder and murder by agent, in connection with the murder of another officer, which Dr. Townsend, Sr., is secretary to Governor Horton, but due to the fact that the governor was at that time indicted for the murder of Governor Horton, but completed his campaign activities, and Thursday found a brilliant array of legal talent assembled representing the governor of the state, he was indicted for the murder of many of both aides, Governor Horton refused to grant the extinction of the murder of both aides, Governor Horton not been proved that either was in the state of Indiana at the time of the indictment, the Friends of Dr. Townsend, many of whom predicted that he would not be graduated and reaffirmed their be- NORDICS FORCE NEGROES FROM HIGHWAY JOBS Cleveland, Tenn.—(ANP)—History repeated itself here this week, when a group of armed white mountaineers called upon and forced the White White Highway engineer, to disclose 17 Negro laborers working on the state highway which passes through this section. The first expulsion of Negroes on the part of the ignorant whites of the Ducktown Copper Basin, a mountain settlement, occurred some forty years ago, when these white folk opined that the Negroes were a bit better educated and not quite so indolent as they were. Since that time, until the arrival of the construction gang, no Negroes have lived in, around or near the section. Last Thursday when the highway work reached the outlines of the section saw 17 Negroes alight from trucks and reported the matter to their supervisor, and Monday evening a hand of armed men and told them the Negroes not remain there. He dismissed the men and continued with the work. The day an officer of the law called upon Boyd supervised. Superintendent Karynaw Jones and wife that, if the Negroes were not coming according to the law of the mountains, the Negroes were discharged and the committee in discussing the matter with Boyd informed him that the determination that Negroes were not prompted by the desire of whites to work on the project but upon his determination that Negroes were not permitted any length of time in that section, he borne only one white man has applied for a job. It is believed that whites were sent to complete the work. ROBERT TAYLOR APPOINTED TO IMPORTANT JOB Chicago, Ill.—(ANP)—The elevator of law clerk to that of assistant attorney of the board of election commission of Illinois is sent to the remarkable attachment of Mr. Taylor. He is recognized as an expert in the years in the state of Illinois on ques- For many years he has served in the legal department of the board until his retirement in 2013, when political leaders and bishops nominated him for an anthology, while other countries in the region have appointed him as consultant. When the legislature was considering new election laws for Cook County during the session, he was asked to advise on the assembly. He was also a consultant made by County Judge Elmund K. Jarecki who is a Democrat. Taylor is a former partisan political line. Judge Jarecki, however, is regarded generally as an efficient rather than partisan well as bearing the reputation of a helpfully interested in the colorado OUR PHONE NUMBER IS PRESTON 1243 NUMBER 16 lief of his innocence of any connection whatever with the murder of the auditor whom Dr. Townsend in a statement sent to the recent session of the National Baptist Convention, held in Chicago, declared he differed only as to methods. The failure to extradite Dr. Townsend will perhaps have an important bearing on the trial of George Washington, alleged Indianapolis gunman, charged with committing the murder, and Dr. B. F. J. Westbrook, who is under indictment on a charge of conspiracy to commit a felony to with murder. Washington is in jail at Scottsboro, Indiana, awaiting trial, and Dr. Westbrook, prominent Indianapolis minister, is out under bond. RACE TOURISTS ARE HELD UP AT HAVANA, CUBA RACE TOURISTS ARE HELD UP AT HAVANA, CUBA HAVANA, Cuba—(ANP) —Mary McLead Bethune, famous woman an leader of the United States, and Mary McLead Bettine, former Institute, with members of their families, were held back and arrested when they were to embark at Havana. The they acted under suggested wishes of the government officials in Havana. The government officials in Cuba government officials in Havana. Negress from coming into Cuba, Cuba strangely enough, this annoyance and trespassing between those who go seeking work as a tourist and tourists and educators, like Dr. Sims and his daughter and Mrs. Beatrice. They were being taken to be visited by the official, while Mrs. Sims held them up. Being hither to come, they were caught by being passed by the official, while Mrs. Sims held them up. But they made it known that they were all of the same party, and that they were the stand of Mrs. Bethune and the intervention of a colored family in Cuba to save his face, back his return to Havana. The Cubans say it is the Americans; the Americans, when they were in Cuba, say it is the Cubans government. The Negress believe that they had even refused to sell the Slims to the Miami, Miami, to Havana, saying it was "orders," and that they were not Negress from coming into Cuba. Four days later than the arrival of the Sims-Bethune party, William Pickens was to arrive on the Morro Castle of the Ward Line, from New York. Mr. Pickens thinks he would have met similar treatment, and would have been threatened with being sent to Tiscerda, the Cuban "Ellis Island" if the Club Atenas had not heard of his coming and made representations to the Cuban government to prevent any insult or inconvenience being put upon him. The president of the club, Serror Cornello Elizadey Lama, and the secretary, Serror Ramon Valdes, had made representation directly to the Cuban government and secured the written card of the commissioner of immigration that Mr. Pickens would be treated without discrimination upon his arrival. Serror Bellasario Hercules, member of the club and son of a president of Santo Domingo, came in person to the pier to see that nothing went wrong with their assurances from the government officials of Cuba. Mr. Pickens landed ignorant of what had threatened him and of the action to prevent it, until he met these people after passing off the ship. The Club Atenas on the same day extended the uses and courtesy of the club to Mr. Pickens, including its splendid gymnasium. The club house was erected a year ago by a Cuban architect, and stands diagonally opposite to the palace of the governor of the province of Havana. Other colored Americans have recently been treated with great indignity. The Rev. Mr. Dwowning of Tennessee kept at the island of Tennessee several days, and made to the account of the associated Negro Press will write a letter to Secretary Washington, advising him of the situation and protecting against it. Cuba among them will fight for equal rights for who will fight for equal rights for who will plan to visit Cuba is advised to notify William Pickens, contributor, 322 Sinnamon Avenue, Chicago, Ill., or the Field Secretary of the National Association of Colored People, at 69 Fifth Avenue, New York N. M. 1120, and the travel will get in influential assistance for his rights he may reach Cuban ports. Moreover he will be taken to the right attitude in American government officials, where the "color" discrimination seems to exist. WHITE LAUGHTER Carl, a senior at the University of Chicago, reads in the paper that the small Mississippi town in which his parents live has been swept away by the flood. He goes at once to the town only to find that his parents have been drowned. He attempts to return North, but is caught by the Hood and is forced to remain in a refugee camp on the river banks where he labors with a gang helping to rebuild the levee. The gang boas glirestens him, and despite the advice of Hotshot also a Hood refugee. Carl finally attacks the boat. Up the river another gang is working, and the boat of this gang threatens with a pistol in his hand. He fires at Carl. A boy is swimming in a river. He is surrounded by a tree with leaves. The river is flowing gently. "Hoshot!" he exclaimed in amazement. "Where are you? And how the devil did you get here?" "I'm on it, other side of this yere big ole tree," the voice came back. "An' I got here just like you did. I jump up in that river and cutched this same old ocean what we're riding on." The knowledge that his friend had also escaped and was close by, gave the youth renewed strength. When he spoke again his voice was gay. "You son-of-a-gun!" he cride happily. "Why in the world didn't you let me know that you were riding this side?" "I'm now?" "Wan't no time for making no talk," Hotshot explained. "I riggered sense we bof was here the talk could wait." "Hadn't we better be hitting for the shore?" Carl suggested. "I'm chilled to be bone, and I'm afraid I can't hang on under these branches much longer." "Come out I'm under em, then," Hotshot advised, "an' we'll ride the top just like passengers on a sure-nub boat." "But suppose somebody sees us?" "Simpson's they does?" the other man asked. "We are 'bout ten miles down the river now, and they ain't no telungraft wires up, an' you know can't nobody make no time through all that water on the banks." "In's minutes," they were seated astounding the long. "I'm here. Hotshot had lost both shoes, and Carl's shirt was in tatters. They regarded each other with careful laughter. "Boy, you sho' looks like something the tom cat done drug in!" the little man chortled. Well, you don't look like a fashion plate yourself. Hotshot," Carl laughed. Then he sobered. "Say, where were you when that man shot at me?" "I was right there," Hotshot declared. "I thought sure I was a goner, he was no close to me. I can't figure how he missed me at all. Or why he didn't shoot at me when I was swimming. He hatched, beetlesyly. He slapped him emphatically against his wet hips and roars. He was surprised that it was pure funny. Again the little boy rolled out right beside the window. "But what happened?" Carl persisted. "What happened?" With an effort Hatchet restrained his mithr. "Why when that baby takes aim at your bored boy?" Hatchet right square in his soul eyes, so when that horse-planked went off when he dropped it, and as I jumped to the streak! Hatchet exploded into laughter again. He silenced for an instant, then he said gravely: "You saved my life. Hatchet" I forgot that he, the companion said a little sheeply. "You think I was gonna stand up there and be a man of means. Of means." The big river on their tree lined well into the afternoon. The sum had come out, and its cold warmth was welcome to the two children. Albeit the banks they could see vines almost submerged houses upon when roofs chug corrugated vines Once they swept perilously close to a huge flap-bottom motor sow, they were clinging to the thick branches behind the heavy foliage of the tree. When the danger was passed, they resumed their training. "When do we quit sailing on this rather unfortunate craft?" Carl asked his friend joking, "How can you tell him, puzzelboy, 'Boy what you talkin' about, to get off this tree?' Carl explained, the supporter his amusement with the other." Carl Takes a Risk "Mot" any time? The Texas said, surveying the wooded banks on the coast to me here would be "bout as a good place as any. Think you can swim Cust study the left-hand bank, at a quarter mile from the position of water, in invisible, swirled nausea of water, invigorated and whipped by invigorated currents, seemed omnious when he could make it. He decided he could make it. He into the cold, turid water, striking out vigorously for the bank. The current seeming to the stronger, the more often than quite a minute down-air before they reached the along mud-pit, cold turid water, down-air exhausted, and chilled to the point when they climbed out of the water, which were knee-deep in water, the way cearward through heavy woods, which were knee-deep in water, could see traces of the vast desolation brought on by the flood. Here and there eno frames of what had THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1930 once been a house, and even a wooden chair that had somehow escaped from the house. For an hour they trudged wearily toward each other, quantify to catch their breath, but as it was already late afternoon they fell back to the ground to order to reach some sign of human habitation before night should fall. They were grounded because heavy with lash, rich in moisture, they had been following gawai way to one much drier and more pleasant. Been so smooth undulating, emerald farm lands, with occasional house giving them a glimpse of the world. Carl would have started at once to hear the call, but his companion restrained him. They Face Starvation "I knew," the enter man可知了, "Booking for our own kind of folks. Anybody can find them, and own our crowds, or sumain, an take a pot-shot at us. We are cold and I'm hungry, and I just naturally about ready to take even that chance. Carl exported us to give us something to eat, at least." He homes in, "I must住屋." I obtained "I want to house." I wanted we want." Time after their journey down the river and through the woods, the few clothes remaining to them, he had gathered all of them had carried a num of scratches and bruises, but above all the dim path they trod led into a trudged through the growth the sound of a rich voice lifted in song halted in their tracks. Back to my used-to-be Hotshot started forward abruptly. "Ain't nobody in th' worl' sing like that but us'ns!" he exclaimed. Almost at once they emerged from the woods, and the truth of the little man's aertion was borne out. A small moss-grown cabin sat in the clearing, and from its stone chimney blue smoke curled in a lazy spiral. Without parley the two men went up to the place. Hotshot rapped at the side of the open door, then called, "Is enbody home?" A Friend in Need A young girl poked her head out and upon seeing the strangers, jerked it back. "Man!" "Man!" they could crush her. "Chew!" "Chew!" You bet. Booth come!" The woman who came to the door was plum, brown and motherly. "Bress mah soul!" she ejaculated. "What's done happen to you po' chillens! Come right in. I've jes' cookin' suppab, and you's jes' in time." Without a word, the two entered the humble dwelling. Odors of boiling coffee, frying meat and baking cornbread made them almost sick with eager delight. They sniffed appreciatively, while they eagerly eyed the steaming vlands. "We sho' air pow'ful hungry," Hotshot told the woman, who was eyeing WILLIAM T. SMITH Well-Know Piece Wri- ter and Author of "The Dark Knight" them with an air of sympathetic curiosity. "What you come from?" she asked. "We was in one of' them flood-camps, and we had to high-tail it this man-wardly. We were so candy, canny, and not mout" the woman exclaimed. The girl, half-girlhood, and half-boyhood of bar bure feet, aided out of the room, eyeing the visitors with quick-side-glances. Outside they were "Your daughter has a lovely voice," Carl complimented. "You from de Noth, son?" the woman�ed at the head of replying to what he said. "Why—yes, I am," Carl affirmed. "You talk like educated folks," the woman laughed. "How you evah get so far down South?" Carl refilled his story to her, and the Garrymaed's patron wiped at her eyes when he had finished. "Now, what you gwine do?" she asked him. "You aho' don' blong down heah noways." "We're going to go to a job. If they any one's going to do what needs some hands?" Hotshot interposed. "Not 'roun here," the woman mused, as she set the fragrant food before them, "but my boy, what I was cooking this yere snack fo', ought to be a good one." "I'm a good one," he said. "I'm a big truck fo' Kunnel Barre, an' he's on his way back to de plantation now. Maybe he kin tell you." Carl and Hotshot fell to eating with the voracious appetites of ravenous women with the good home. He was with the pleased amble. She liked to see people eat, especially when they looked half starved, like these men. As he ate, Carl was reflecting upon the unquestioning sort of hospitality which the woman had extended them. How the woman to someone's door seeking food up North, the chances were that nothing but rough words would have been given them. Down here they were invited in with unquestionable, whole-heartedness and given them a good time to eat without a moment's hesitation. "Lo, Maw," a voice said from the doorway. A tall, husky youth, clad in blue denim, stood smiling in the door, his eyes on the strangers. "See you! His mother explained," he said. "Mr. Mother explained," and new Game," she concluded, as she set still more food on the table for the late arrival, "they's lookin' for' work. I told 'em at maybe the Kunnel mought need some good time." The youth took his place at the table. "Sho," de Kunnel needs han's what kin grab cotton," he confirmed. "Kin you boys pick of white stuff." "Hotshot grinned pridefully. "What you'll get to do, I said, "I'dively. Why, I kin pick my fo' hun'sivedy. "Why, I kin pick my fo' hun'sided with anybody. Cose," he interposed apologetically, "my pahdnah here can't pick so good, but I makes up the same." "I think he's able to pick pretty fair when I was a kid in Blastsallppl," Carl put in a little defensively. "Maybe I won't do so bad." "Well, after we eat I got to be anangrin on to a plantation," Gene said. "I think I'll take long with me." "I think about sixty miles soufeast, and de road it ain't no plaything, so, offen you'll ascarit of de swamp an' de cordroy roads, you better not come." "We ain't scared," he in swamps, nurn no foouls. "I think I'm a hot shot," he suggested his friend questioningly. "We goes," Carl said. "Why not?" Carl answered. "We've got to make some money, and money doesn't grow on trees." "I think I'm a good thing," he said,வர். "I take to see me and I'm afeard to work," she said.

Into the gathering twilight their new-found friend drove the cumbersome rough corduroy road, which led beetles through the woods, a dark treetrap, a shadow commonly across the path. The heavy woods increasingly strong and evidences grew every minute that civilization increased, strong and evidences grew every minute that civilization when darkness fell.

Santo Domingo is an old city. It boasts of being the first white settlement in the New World. The Spaniards had built it strong like a fortress. Stone houses and stone walls were constructed to keep out human foes. Many of the old structures had withstood the ravages of time, and upon and around the old had been built modern houses and office edifices of concrete. But the result of man's labors for more than four centuries was practically destroyed by nature in a fit of temper. And man himself was battered senseless to initiate the lust of the fierce hurricane. At the time of this writing the number of dead is not known. More than a thousand are dead in this city alone. More than 10,000 were injured, struck by the wind or by flying debris. Millions of dollars worth of damage was done to property. H helpc came almost as soon as the hurricanes had waned its strength on the Dominican and Haitian mountainains, from the United States, the Red Cove marshland its forces to send the troops to put to work to construct shelters for the hurricanes and to police the streets against marauders. The population of the Dominican republic is one million. It is composed of the French and English and Americans. French and English are the muklesets and the mixtures of Spanish and Indians. The largest number of republican twin republic of Haiti, the tendency republic of flair-faked inhabitants for the future. WHITE RIOTERS TO FACE JURY IN OKLAHOMA Chickasha, Oklawá. — (ANP) The eight white rioters who were identified by the police, which lynched Henry Argo, a balfour youth, sometime ago were bound on Monday for trial in the federal court. Twenty-one were arrested immediately following the lynching and rioting that took place in their case they were not charged with the murder of Argo, but with property damage.

Skinner is known to have thrust a knife into the head of an unconscious after having been shot by a nipper on the outside of the jail.

The wealth of many of the most甚于most families of France had to root in the fertile soil of what was then Saint Domingue.

Again, under the romantic powerful figure of Christophe, Hall's first and only king, the leader of La Citadelle, was a fortress, and magnificent Saint Seoul palace, the farms in the north of Haiti flourished. Hard work brought prosperity. But the material glory of Haiti is of another day. Against the withering contempt and indifference of the white world, the blue public fought out stifletly. France exacted its indemnity of 150 million francs before she would recognize or trade with the new owners of her lost colony. The United States declined to recognize these independent black men, although a thousand of them had volunteered to help our country in the five times of liberty. Thus the trade of Haiti was restricted. And the leaders of Haiti set for themselves a goal the value of which will always be a subject of debate among Negro people. The attitude of the white world suggested that Hamians that whites did not believe black would be the intellectual equals.

This bank is making money because its peculiar activities have had at least the aid and comfort of our government. Second, the Haitian-American Sugar Company, known as Haseo. This company was organized as a high-value American promoter. H. P. Davis, who later wrote "Black Democracy: More than a million dollars" was lost in Davis' experiments with sugar cane and cotton. Work is practically at a standstill now. The undertaking is regarded as a colossal failure. Third, the California Peaking Company. These are the same people who dominate the Hawaiian pineapple industry. They are only recently been operations of a similar nature in Haiti. They are developing plans to put 5,000 acres in pineapples. Already, they have about 1,200 acres. This Haitian pineapple, of very fine quality, is exported to Europe.

Neglect of the first teeth and their consequent premature eruption will result in the normal position, resulting in insufficient effects on the general health. An experimental group of children with premature eruption proper in use in examination, showed at the end of one year, an increase in their proper use in examination. Proper diet, including milk, vegetables, fruits and crusty foods, together with mouth and frequent刷 to the dentist, will practically eliminate tooth pains. It is up to mothers and teachers to realize those things and to get to the root of the problem. Strong, healthy teeth are the result of good nutrition, thorough manicure and adequate prophylactic and dental care.

The peasant in Halit has little with which to purchase with and makes out Seventh, the difficulties of export. An investor never is sure of what he can find a foreign market for. Once it might have been coffee, but Brazil almost knocked the bottom out of the Haitian coffee industry. Cuba and Peru, the Richest, the play away from Haiti with sugar cane, coconuts and bananas. Although a fine grade of cotton has been produced, nobody has been able to find a market for it. And even after you find a market, duties of various sorts may make the venture unprofitable. Haiti uses an extraordinary large amount of oil, and is not manufactured profitably in Haiti because of the import duties on certain ingredients. The Haitian-American Development Company and the California Packing Company seem to be on the road to success. But they have made large outlays of money. That is essential for any investor in Haiti. The small industry might as well stay away. The rugged sides of Haiti's mountains may be made to shine again in the middle of the blue Atlantic and wealth may flow, but the process will require education, hard work and much money. Texas has thirty-six towns, cities of more than 10,000 population. Seven of them are newcomers in the list and one of them had only 987 inhabitants ten years ago.

H.—(ANF)—A largely attended and highly interesting conference for interracial amity arranged by the National Teaching Committee of the Bahals of the United States and Canada was held at the Women's City Club in this city last week. Miss Jaliet Thompson of New York presided as chairman and read extracts from the writings of Baha Ullah, founder of the Bahai cause. Mayor F. W. Hartford extended welcome on behalf of the city, telling in part the traditional racial relationship of this city. Robert W. Bagnall of New York, director of branches of the N. A. A. C. P., brought out the fact that Negroes had contributed much to the civilization of America and world, but were not given credit for what they had achieved. "Monuments erected by the Indians," Mr. Bagnall said, "showed a discontent between the red and black races long before the discovery of America." "Many of the sailors who came, over with Columbus, were Negroes," he said. "And a Negro invented the cotton gin credited to Ehl Whitney." Other speakers were Dr. Albert D. Heist of Geneva, New York, who spoke on "Scientific and Spiritual Proofs of Human Oneness," and Rev. William Safford Jones of the Unilarian Church, who spoke on internal amity. Music was furnished by Dorothy Richardson, Ima Brinkwale, Eleanor Wallace and Dorothy Wood, all of Boston.

The sessions were held at the University of Michigan for the occasion by white parish, two colored parishes being too small quately, Delegates in attendance came from New York, Washington Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Ohio.

High mass, held Sunday morning. with the Rt. Rev. Michael J. Gallagher, the celebrant, was most impressive. The church was crowded with white and Negro Catholics and visitors. A procession was formed half a square from the church. First came the officers of the federation and official male delegates, two and two, followed by several Detroit priests in clerical vestments; three monks in dark brown cowls, followed by altar boys, twelve of them bearing lighted candles—Italian boys—then other priests—in cloth of gold vestments, special attendants to the bishop, a saintly man attired in robe of magenta. Behind him walked a orist bearing the crown to be worn by the bishop during the service. Meanwhile, thirty-seven boys in blue and white cadet uniforms, the Catholic Boys' Band of Cinneinnati, Ohio, played the processional march from the step of the hall directly opposite the church. The pastor of St. Mary's delivered a splendid sermon which was a tribute to Negro Catholicity. The bishop addressed the body at the close of mass and a letter from the Pope was read to the federation, commending that body for its zeal. Bishop Gallagher has long been a staunch friend of Negroes in his diocese. White ushers served, and the mass was beautifully sung by the colored choirs from St Peter Claver's and St. Benedict the Moor's Parish.

BOSTON READY TO ENTERTAIN WAR "BUDDIES" Boston Mass.—(AP) Collegiate delegates and veterans of the Boston Massacre visited the American Legion convention which convened in this city during the 1918 massacre, and were greeted by their legionnaire bodies of the Massachusetts Department with a message extended in letters been extended in cities that have been Legioned in the 1918 Paris census where initial plans of organization of the massacre a small number of colleged delegates had the honor of attending those meetings shortly after the Aristocrats had met. After denobilization of the military naval units which had come back from the war, the naval stationed at training camps in the station, recruited of the plans formulation and thus a temporary veteran organiza- tion. An executive committee formed in one of its sub-com- mittees a colonel of the occupation figure he assisted the other delegates to arrange the first caucus of the organization in 1920. The organization along with other states of the East and West sent their City of Camphur, City of Allamand, City of allamand, taking an active and energetic part in the procedures forming the temporary orga- nism of organizing colored posts in the wisdom of organizing colored posts in the interior into respective departments took place. Before adjustment of the St. Louis department, the state Department should state that the state Department should state that post representation within towns and cities were located with veterans who could or could not be formed organization in these towns. Southern veteran leaders at first were very enthusiastic during the formative period of organizing the American Legion. They failed to realize the seriousness of their objections when the subject was brought upon the floor at the memorable St. Louis cactus, as to the feasibility of organizing colored posts in certain states of the South. The issue of Negro Posts and Individual black veterans joining the Legion became bitter and for a time the question of forming an organization of any kind seemed to hang on a single thread. However, the wise heads of the caucus ironed out the matter to the satisfaction of all concerned and at present the American Legion is the greatest veteran organization in the world. At Cleveland, Ohio, 1921, the permanent organization was formed with scores of Negro delegates and alternates attending who were accorded due recognition from the departments to which they were accredited. Boston, the citadel of freedom and liberty also the hot-bed of abolition before the Civil War, has patiently awaited its turn to be a host of the American Legion. The 1930 tercentenary year luckily shone as a brilliant star to attract leaders of the Legion that the time had arrived to recognize Boston who for a long time had been boasting for a chance to demonstrate its "yankee hospitality" of the old time variety. Colored legionnaires coming to the "Hub" will be amazed to view at first hand as they probably already have learned from other boddies how spontaneous they will be received and accorded all the courtesies which will be extended to all veterans, whether of the Legion or if they come unattached. A home and a clean spot with all the domestic comforts will be provided each legionnaire when he arrives. Cultured Woman Voodoo Victim; Lost Diamonds New Haven, Conn.—(ANP)—A new faculty member of the University is a member of the faculty of Public University, at Nashville, Conn., Jal Park, where she was welcomed with a collection of jewelry worn during her visit. Miss Ruth Shaplea, the draped school teacher of New York City, who died December an guest solos at the Dkxx School in New York, gave a report of which Rev. Edward Cole, P. E., is pastor, later returned and spent an evening with the teacher, a little featured woman in black called at the home and promised to drive away an evil spirit. The Proctor, director of the Dkxx Community House. The victim handed over $200 in diamond rings and cash to the amount she was asking for, and incriminated over these valuables, blessings, she left with her bobblehead which she was to keep until the spell. The police were called in after several hours she did not notice any good result. A Mrs. Foster was also a looter, and a report from all others. Orangeburg, S. C. (AIP)-Farmers of the state were urged to develop a new farm program, led by speakers on the South Carolina Day program, which was held at the Orangeburg Farmers' Day, April 25. Agents and home demonstration agencies of the state, exhibited the farmers' and their products, and helped to make home-life more wholesome and attractive, for their children. The program, spiking a school season, annually. A year-round garden program was started. PAGE SEVEN William Pickens SAYS CANB They can buy liquors on about every corner in Havana, and in the mid-1980s they were selling a drunken Cuban. There is gambling of all sorts; a lottery is run by the government, that gambling is a sanctioned thing by authority. On Sunday, they have a "chip pool," a sort of bet on the government, and someone got something and the ship officials got the big pile. On English Sunday, they have a "giving service" and preaching on Sunday, and they promote all sorts of gambling on Sunday. But since both of them try to win, you can just, take your choice: praying or a shot-shooting American barbarian. In Cuba, where the native hair is naturally black and beautiful, you can wear blonde. People always want what they have not—in the United States, they are trying to be white; while in Northern Germany, where everybody is blonde, when a black man comes to Cuba, they are bright in the women all express the wish that they could have beautiful black hair. In America, full dress is black; in Cuba, to be really up to date is to wear a black shirt. In America, it is "women first"; in Cuba, the men are all introduced first to the women are introduced; even when the cake is pressed around, the men are introduced; even when the parade," the women have a way. When a member of the Cuban congress is being introduced to you, the one making the introduction may say: "He is a celebrated poet; he won first prize in our poetry contest." Think a congressman, being recommended to us in New York on his poetic proclivity! Wouldn't that be great campaign stuff in South Chicago? And all the while this congressman is talking to you, right on the streets of Havana, he has taken off his hat and kept it off until you separate. He is very polite; he looks up a dinner date for you, right on the spot. But also, when the one who was introducing you, saw the congressman coming in the distance, your sponsor said rather feverishly to you, who had your coat on your arm because of the best: "Put on your coat! Put on your coat," In America, we would not worry if our lady friend met us with our coat on our arm, on a hot day, let alone a mere congressman. And only the men attend funerals in Cuba: women are deprived that pleasure, suppers that funerals are a sort of "lulignity" parable business, and the men hog the stage. I went to market in Havana; an agglomeration of everything from seeds and chemises to fish, pineapples and alligator pears. There is a great square in the center of the market building, a patio; and, they say, this patio is filled with squashing pigs before Christmas and at other holiday seasons. The pig seems to be the "turkey" or the "national bird" here in Cuba. Imitating the great nation to the north, the "white" element in Cuba is belly-aching to make the island a "white man's country." And what you want badly, you will make-believe or even try to lie it into existence. So you read in Cuban literature that "the population is seventy per cent white and thirty per cent of other races." But you find those figures should be at least reversed: for the population seems to be eighty or ninety per cent colored, as "color" goes in the United States. In its desperate aim to be "white," Cube counts every brown and yellow mixed-breed a white, and perhaps counts only the blacks and the Chinese as "colored." Every idea and classification depends upon what you want and what you need. If white people were as scarce in the United States as they are in Cuba and Jamaica, they would immediately enroll into their ranks the four or five million mullattoes and "higherowns" of America. Life is a screaming comedy! Tuskegee Tigers Rarin' To Start Season Practice Tuskegee Institute, Ala.-Fla. players denounced uniforms for the first workout held September 14. The Tuskegee were to get the "feel" of the ball they were wearing, and to prove a ruling of the conference against teams reporting for practice. The opening game, scheduled with the soldiers of the Kaimu U. B. Infantry, was played on September 20. Georgia, on September 20, had a similar tik that any more ever made, by the athletic officials. The Infantry, N.J. Navy got the Golden Tiger uniforms. Coach Wass was assisted in the workout by his entire staff consisting of Coach John H. Browne, State College star, John H. Browne, crack恳恳 from Virginia University and R. A. Mundy, forever loyal to A. I. A. Center of Hampston University. The Houston Informer A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER FOR ALL THE PEOPLE As the season for the opening of schools and colleges draws near, we are again reminded of the fact that with many of them the year will be another struggle for existence against financial odds which to some will prove well worth insurmountable. We are reminded of the very great importance of the education of our students in the international development of the race and naturally wonder just what the future holds for them. There can be no doubt but that theirs is a definite problem and not a theory. They face a future of rising standards in the education system and the addition of library facilities to keep pace with rising standards set by rating boards, higher salary demands of prepared teachers such as are required by these same rating boards. They must also be prepared for the backing of any sort of endowment fund from which to draw. Popular subscription must come to their aid and established funds must be importured in a frenzied effort to keep pace with changing times. There is no doubt but The Informer wonders whether or not the general public, and particularly those who have come out from these institutions in times past and who owe to them all of the preparation which they have had for the tasks which they are required to undertake, and debt to these institutions, and whether or not they are as willing as they should be to liquidate that debt by actual contribution to and work for the perpetuation of these schools. Some of them are even engaged in drives for endowment funds and are importing the public to help them raise amounts for the schools. Some of them are seeking to help. Let these efforts not be made in vain. Let the alumni of these schools enter heartily and eagerly into the work and see them through. From such close cooperation with these efforts will come an ability to see the real problems of the school and a background from which they can be drawn. But not now be doubted that where it is feasible some of the institutions must merge with others, setting rigid standards of courses as part of a larger institution rather than as independent institutions themselves. In many cases, particularly where two or more schools have been merged, the combined support of the members toward a single school instead of two or three as has formerly been the case. All of these things are to be considered in the thought of the future of our private institutions. Their contribution in the past well warrants their continuation in the future. But only along with the support of the institutions and the institutions which support them but to the community and the state educational system as well. CAMPS FOR NEGRO BOYS AND GIRLS It is reported by the workers in the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. that the most successful outings for young people in the history of the Negro work in Houston were held this year. A large number of teen-aged boys and girls were the guests of the associations and of the public for several days in splendid camp and in the community. The experience of the organizations. Physical exercise, moral training, social lectures and religious interpretation vied with each other in a combined effort to enlarge the vision and improve the ideals of this group of future representatives of the race in Houston. It is noteworthy that the public contributed more largely this year than ever before toward the success of these ventures. And the success of this group of young people benefits by the holding of the camp. It is reliably reported that many of the young people who were present this year were so situated that, but for this generosity on the part of the public, they could not have come in contact with these refining influences. It is also worthy of consideration that, in proportion as the number of our boys and girls who come in contact with such influencers, that the race in Houston became better prepared for procreation in community. It is therefore true that contribution toward the success of these two organizations and such others as have for their objectives the improvement of the youth is an investment rather than a gift. In fact, an investment beside which may others pale into the background is the success of their communities and families are the greatest assets of races and of societies generally. The Informer is paired with the reports of the success of the ventures this summer and urges that Negro Houston next summer make even greater contribution in order that a larger number of boys and girls may be prepared to attend camp sites and be ward confidently to the time that these camp sites may be permanently secured by members of the race for the use of our boys and girls. ABYSSINIA BUYS AMERICAN AIRPLANES Current news dispatches tell of the presence in this country of Lieut. Jillan, well known aviator of the race and for some time attached to the Abyssinian government as military director. He has also been appointed to purchase airplanes for his government. Conflicts appear to cause some doubt in the minds of some as to the genuineness of the claims of the young officer, but nevertheless there is a general hope that the purpose of his mission is as stated. He has also been appointed to purchase and there are few, if any, bonds existing between the American Negro and the inhabitants of that country, the fact that they are classed among the black peoples of the earth and have for many centuries been able to maintain their status as an independent nation, unconcerned by opposing armies and forced to pay tribute to no greater extent. Certainly that nation now seeks to modernize itself, at least to the point of preparation against modern forms of invasion and to remodel its systems of communication to the extent of introducing travel and transportation by airplane, is a mark of progress which has been achieved. It is better that improvement American Negroes, has remained unprogressive. It has shown few, if any works of improvement as time has gone on. And it has only been since the grant of the rubber concessions to the Firestone interests that any indications of improvement are to be made. It is better that it should not have come at all; but to the race loving Negro, it is infinitely more desirable that improvement should come to the countries maintained by members of his common race by reason of their own innate love of progress. It is better that the Negroes will well the Abyssinian government in its expressed desire to modernize itself.

INTELLIGENCE AND INTEGRITY MAKE MEN AND RACES GREAT HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1930 NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE The recently closed meeting of the National Negro Business League was remarkable largely for the stress which was placed on the idea of intelligent study of the economic status of the Negro by those intending to go into business, rather than a following through of the old type of inspirational program which had degenerated into nothing more than a series of speeches by old time members which were more mutual, admirational expressions. It is noteworthy that within the past four years the program of the league has become practical, and that it has begun to follow through with a system of practical activity, the facts as gained from the nationwide survey of two years ago. An office has been opened in New York. Contact has been made with the masters of commerce of America. Things have been set in motion looking to the establishment of brands of commodities made for Negroes to be sold to Negroes. In short, the league has begun to serve in a practical way. The recently closed meeting featured the practical address of advertising experts, marketing specialists and purchasing agents whose lives have been devoted to a close study of their various fields. And there can be no doubt but that the upward systematic planning and procedure by Negro merchants along well proven lines has been definitely strengthened by reason of this meeting. It is good that this is so. The time for the older type of procedure in this organization is definitely past. And the Negro business men of this country have reason to be thankful for the progress that has been made in bringing this changed program into being in such a large way. The membership of the league should grow. The movements which it is sponsoring should receive the hearty support of every Negro community, and not whether there be Negro merchants or not. The Negro community should be the group partons for the brands of commodities made specialties by the league, in every section of this country, would force the stocking and sale of these brands everywhere. United effort in this direction would eventually bring to pass a much needed day—one that would allow Negro merchants to make itself felt in such a way as to return larger benefits to those who have the spending in charge. Any concern, be it Negro or not, which can be responsible for the purchase of two or three commodities, is a concern which is able to command the respect in a tangible way of all of those who sell, produce and finance. If that concern is Negro it means that Negroes everywhere who bring such economic strength to bear in any direction can and should be able to make themselves now being experienced by them. The league is leading the way. We can profit largely if we follow eagerly and quickly. CIVIC LEAGUES ALL OVER HOUSTON In the Third Ward there is an organization just a few years old which was established by Prof. Gooden and a small group of public minded citizens of his neighborhood which held a succession of meetings and gave them advice. The league also specializes in seeking improvements for the neighborhood and encourages home ownership and the efficient up-keep of property. From a small beginning it has grown to the point that it is now the pride of the neighborhood, and even now there is even part in its activities are completely sold on its possibilities. Its success has been noted by The Informer which takes this method of commending its activities and of calling the attention of Negro Houston to the possibilities of such movements in all Negro neighborhoods. The possibilities are numberless. It could be said that Negro Houston is the most live, that practically all of the Negro homes of Houston would show the effects of competition to make them the most beautiful. Organization would give closer touch of all Negro Houston with the possibility of making them more tered as are all of its citizens, it would offer a means of first class contact which could result in more united effort for all movements than is now possible. Negro Houston could, by means of a federation of such leagues, have more compelling contacts with the Negro community. Negro homes as were made could have the sanction of all Negro tax-payers and home owners, where now such pleas represent but the demeasure of a comparatively small group. Negro homes would come to be seen as a part of Houston homes and Negro effort at beautifying and restoring the distinctive contribution toward the beautification of Houston as such. THIRD WARD NEGRO BUSINESS The district bounded by Dowling, Sampson, Holman and McKinney streets affords a large number and variety of Negro retail establishments ranging from natalist mecteries per square foot to the finest front lawn of homes. Some of these places deserve favorable mention due to their architectural standards and persistent growth. And it is not hard to envision a day in which good citizens of all sorts would come to know and to respect good citizens of all sorts. It is also important that such feelings feel that such consideration of the effort of the Third Ward Civic Club is profitable. It would be pleased to help all of Negro Houston to a better knowledge of this club and its activities by making only the news of it, but of any and of all other organizations like it. One, a laundry and tailor shop one which has grown from a small cleaning and pressing shop to a modern and operated plant employing 25 manpower. Another is a combination cafeteria and confectionery, owned by Mrs. J. H. Robertson. In appearance and flavor, the restaurant is similarly established throughout the country, and has become an institution in the neighborhood.

One of the ex-governors will beak on Saturday. The Negro music come to his own and he will learn to honor the American. We expect to get anywhere, we must do so by our own individual effort and freedom to quit the race, the trial education and when his wife died, we must stop degenerating against their race; no man or woman is required to be sainted with ourselves and stop clamoring after the white man and John Webb is an example for the Nexro business man; he made his money married a colored woman, loved his wife and kept hispy. He established and began the external institution—the Woodson of the Demoralization of Fraternal Organizations Prateral organizations have attempted to shake the red rag in the church by putting on balls, street dance and street bows in order to demoralize the church by putting on demoralizing attitudes shaking the red rag into the face of the gospel and the ministers are so jumping into this attitude allowing the wicked part of the church to come before them. Both brother ministers, I am sure you do not mean to do this but you are doing to make both ground and make rightnessous. "He that knoweth to do and doeth not, to him it is right." CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS GOOD HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. H. C. Cushaw, Pastor Sunday was a high day with the members of Good Hope. Sunday school promptly at 9 a.m., with Supt. Wiley Johnson at his post.

Y. P. U. went over the top Sunday evening. E. Edmonds is president. All groups were alive and working to reach the A-1 standard. The senior counselor, Mrs. Alice E.

Sunday night the senior choir rendered a program in honor of the pastor going to the National Convention at New York City. The program was sponsored by E. Edmonds.

"Salvation Through Jesus Christ Alone" in the morning and "The Church the Sole Agency" for the World's Return to Sanity, at night. The daily vacation Bible and recreation school of Pilgrim Congregational Church, Miss Nina H. Smith, conductor, closed Thursday night with a fine program and a picnic Friday for both the Sunday school and the D. V. B. and R. S. Both occasions were enjoyed especially by the young people. The enrolment this session was 57. Mrs. R. M. Porter left Wednesday for her teaching post at Tillotson College, where she has been teaching for the past two years. Rev. J. L. Donaldson was especially interested in what he found in The Informer of last week, and thinks that it might not be out of place to call attention to the fact that a young man, Charles Thomas, a senior of the present year at St. Paul's College, was a student and was soon more a good seeking work and was unable to find employment anywhere, but found an opportunity to go to the cotton fields and make wages and entered upon that course, and has been making a good showing in his finances for several weeks. He has reported several other intelligent young men of our schools doing the same thing during these trying days for money. They are dignifying labor by their conduct too, as well as confirming the old adage that "there is dignity in labor." NEGRO HISTORY EXPERT AT ST. JOAN'S KINDAY, AT 4 P.M. Mr. Green is an m. A. from Columbia University and has put in a year of experience as a representative of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History of which Dr. Carter G. Woodson is the director.
