Negro Special U.S. Attorney General Sworn In Dignified NEGRO ART WILL BE EXHIBITED IN HOUSTON AT THE MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS. OCTOBER FIFTH IN that horribil all the right it no boy are really 5 Cts VOL. XII Negro Spee Attorney Sworn In Washington, D. C. (—ANP) David H. Henderson was sworn in as a plenipotentiary on April 16, 2014, morning. September 15, 2014, in a ceremony as brief as it was dignified. There were speeches, a gallery of speeches, no galaxy of politicians. A few simple words from the president, an unraveled hand, the click of a new handset, the lock, the photographer, and the event photographer. Thus the Kanas lawyer, who until the recent county prosecutions by the county prosecutor in Kansas City, the sent of which was Kansas City, the nance an he became the occupant of a position to which many of the Negro people of Kansas City and the setting as he took it over was new special assistant himself appearance. Unlike most colored men who come to Kansas to assume many jobs, he was not widely known. His activities in affairs, profit- able have been confined to his own state. In Kansas City, a bit off from Kansas City, he SEGREGATION BILL PASSED IN SOUTHERN CITY Nashville, Tenn.—(ANP)—An ordinance providing that Negroes and whites frequenting pool rooms theaters and other indoor amusement places must be separated by a distinct floor. was passed here by the city council recently. The ordinance was introduced by Councilman Elkin, who declared that the bill had the approval of at least 94 per cent of the citizens of both races, but did not substantiate his statement by evidence. After the first reading of the bill it was passed unanimously. Councilman Elkin stated that he had been inspired to present the bill by a growing condition of Negroes and whites mingling freely in Negro pool rooms. Citizens in those districts in which the places were located, had complained about this intermingling of the racial groups and had urged him to take steps to stop it. Several raids for vagrants loitering in the Negro pool rooms have resulted in the arrest of many white men who were found frequenting the places and engaging in games with their colored fellow-citizens. This proved embarrassing to the whites who operate business places in the same section and police were urged to keep whites out of Negro places. There was no need to pass the law to keep Negroes out of the places operated for whites as they were never permitted to enter, except by the rear door and then on business. Despite the statement of Councilman Ekin, the growth of jim-crowning in the NBA, which began with colleges and one medical college, has met with the disparity of many colored citizens. TUSKEGEE DEFEATS IN FANFETY Doughboy Stadium, St. Benning, Ga.-Giving a great exhibition of basketball, the 244th United States Infantry, the 244th National Guard, the Game was clearly played, much fought and marked by few penalties.

The address of the selected from 300 entered from all the colleges of the University of the Americas for distinguished achievement among Negroes. The jury of selection is composed of nine critics, one of whom is a Negro—Wile THE HOUSTON INFORMER at large, knew little of his accomplishments. But Kansas known David E. Henderson and his friends there are confident that in the national arena he will make the same brilliant and effective record that he has established in the field he left behind him. "When Dave Henderson takes his desk in the department of justice," said Judge Wm. C. Hueston, himself a few comer in Washington's official family, "the best Negro lawyer I know and one of the best lawyers of any race who ever took post in the department, will have been added to Uncle Sam's staff." Judge Hueston ought to know. He was Henderson's class mate in the University of Kansas where they both graduated back in 1904. Henderson led the class of 80 as honor man and Mr. Hueston says there wasn't a member of the class within twenty percent of him as a student. Henderson carried his scholastic prominence into his later life. His record in private and official practice is pointed to in Kansas as a criterion. They tell of his brilliance as a prosecutor: of his handling under both democratic and republican administrations, the most difficult cases which came into the county prosecutor's office. "POLICY KING" SEEKS BANKER BINGA'S ARREST Chicago, ill., ill.-(ANK) — A warrant for the arrest of Jesse Bigha, presiding over the Bigha State Bank, was issued in August, was awaived out here last week and was awarded out here last week. The warrant charged by bailer, William, was arising out of the warrant is due to the unearned knowledge of Bigha's affair which has prevailed since August. The warrant is reported to have purchased $1,500 worth of stock in a proposed national bank which Bigha was organizing to materialize. Since closing of the bank, some of the proceeds of the stock have been apprehended about the money they invested in its stock, but it has not been his money and to seek its return, if Officers intrusted with the Bigha warrant have so far been forced to climb among the "missing bankers." It is reported, however, that officers have been supposed to purchase stock in the national bank and used it as $75,000 in the building of the old Kenwood National Bank, in which the new Bank of Bigha Several weeks ago when he turned over his personal assets to a group of trustees who are reorganizing the state bank for its reopening October 1, he failed to include the papers on the Kenwood Bank Building porpoability. Since that time, it is said, the trustees have gained control of these, too, and it is stated that it is their intention to sell the building as quickly as possible, so that all of the stockholders in the national bank may have their money back. There are said to be several would-be purchasers for the building. Some months ago, Kelly was kidnapped and held several days for $10,000 ransom. He was returned, it is believed, after payment of a smaller sum. Kelly's action is in no way connected with the reorganization of the old bank, plans for which have been approved by the state auditor.

Washington, Jr. and the Baptist Sunday School Publication, Dr. A. M. Townsend, Jr. So far neither man indicted has been arraigned. Townsend and his son, stoutly protesting their innocence, have just as vigorously fought attempts to bring them within the jurisdiction of the state of Indiana where their innocence could be most convulsively proved. They were successful in defeating a move to extradite them. Washington, held in the town jail at Scottaburg, Ind., ignored an opportunity to escape, declaring that he would hold his ground and prove his innocence. Of course, the other side of his failure to seize the opportunity to flee from jail was the fact that there are no Negroes in the section of the state where he is incarcerated, and he would not have been able to get anywhere without being identified and returned to jail. An attempted jail break would have injured any contemplated defense. Some information about Washington is necessary in order to understand the present status of the case. tion is necessary in order to understand the present status of the case. His burning is uncommon.

He actually has the audacity to throw an arm around each and to lean upon these white men as they hold a standing-up conference. They give him ear and he tells them, pointedly, what he wants to do. During the taking of testimony, Washington keeps himself constantly engaged. Forward he leans upon the table, resting his head upon his long, folded arms, his eyes, while he half smiles and half grins, boring through the witness. He is presently impressed that he should make a note about an item of testimony. Quickly he seizes his pencil and pretends to write, but he is merely scrawling (and acting); he cannot write, not to take notes, but his gesture is perfect.

In Paris, Mrs. Bank's party were guests at a banquet given in their honor in the dining room of the famous Chicago Inn, an exclusive eating place owned by an American Negro. In a very enthusiastic and animated manner she told of the way they were coddled by the French people, of their regretting to leave so soon. There was, however, one incident about which she spoke bitterly. And this happened near the end of the return trip. It reminds one of what happened, so very tragically, to a Negro soldier in the state of Georgia away back in 1919: lynched because he dared demand the "democracy" for which he fought.

Charles Mitchell Is Named By Hoover Minister To Liberia COMMISSION ON INTERRACIAL COOPERATION WILL MAKE STUDY LYNCHINGS IN UNITED STATES Washington, D. C.—(ANP)—President Herbert Hoover announced last Wednesday the appointment of Chas. E. Mitchell of West Virginia, to be minister to Liberia. He succeeds to the post made vacant by the late Wm. T. Francis, who succumbed after two year's incumbency. Mr. Mitchell, who for many years has been business manager of the W. Virginia State College at Institute, W. Virginia, is well known throughout the country in educational, fraternal and political circles. As a boy he was a protege of Frederick Douglas.

In securing the appointment he had the support of the two senators from West Virginia, the entire West Virginia congressional delegation and numerous colored men of prominence, including leaders in the Colored Voter's Division which served during the last campaign.

Hotash laughed. He enjoyed bitling Gene. "Go long, boy," he advised. "Yore'm mout ain't no Bible!" A man came up and told Gene that his employer wanted to see him. Gene bade his friends wish for him, and hastily depicts for the barn. In a few minutes he had returned. "De Kunnel," he announced, importantly to Carl, "say, did you and his yere runt stay in the little cabin up here nigh the big house." he began. "You callin' me a runt?" Hotshot inquired with apparent idleness as he glected up an ax handle and weighed it appraisingly. Gene retreated precipitantly. "Don't pay Hotshot any attention," Carl called to him. "Tell us what the Colonel said." Gene returned slowly, casting apprehensive eyes at Hotshot. The latter looked at him in well feigned surprise, hiding the twinkle in his eyes as he asked, "Did you think I was going to go with this yere ax handle? Why, boy, don't you know I wouldn't do that? No, sir! If I wanted to hurt you I'd get me a wagon tongue, 'cause nothin' else would be big enough to bust yo' hard haid!"

"Looks like we're getting a break," Carl laughed. "Boy, hush yo' moufl!" Hotshot hortled. After Gene had taken them to the supply house, we were both drew new big overalls and blue shirts, as well as new shoes, the truck driver showed them the way to the fields. The cabin which the Colonel had assigned them was only a few hundred yards from where the gene shot were to be knowingly as the "big house." The other cabins, built of logs, with grass roofs, were relics of the days when the great Baree plantation had swarmed with slaves. It had been the slave section, and now it was as good as the workers' quarters. These cabins were scattered out haphazardly through the heavy woods near the big cotton field, and they were all occupied by itinerant cotton players who came to the river. The crop Carl who learned that it was not only work that brought the dark peasants, but that they came to have a good time as much as to earn money. Long the way to the fields from the cabins the men passed through a large cleared circle set deep in the woods. In the center a few embers glowed, and a large ring of ashes indicated that a huge fire had blazed the very recently. Two rough place tableau were on the fire and the grass around them was worn thin. "What's dis yere place?" Hotshot asked. Gene grinned. "If you stay yes you find out!" he answered signifi cently. "They calls dis de serochin expo!" "Shut my mour!"

He attempts to return North, but is caught by the food and is forced to remain in a refuge camp on the river banks where he hails with a gang helping to reclaim the levee. The gang has been trying to kill him, but the police are unable to find another gang is working, and the boss of this gang threatens with a plot in his hand. He fires at Carl. Carl leaps into the river just as the gang is coming up. The gang is working for several hours, and grows so weak and cold he can hang on no longer. Just then Hotshot speaks from the other side of the tree, and is relieved to see his friend, Carl, who is still alive. They descend the tree and make their way through the woods, arriving at a cabin occupied by a colored family, where they are fed. The son, Gene, takes them in his truck through the swamp to Colonel Through the murky night the three men bump and lurch over the rough road through the swamp.

He also "would also" a large, plump brown asked her, a large, plump Hotothed her for an instant, and seeing no man standing near the group, he said, "he reckoned you mought he's a po' little runt like I." The group was the group on her hips. "I mought help you get out of the door," that was belied by a smile hovering at the corners of her mouth. The man she showed, "she also bob" one of the teenies men. *Don let her use her teenies men.* Again the group roared with laughter, and magically Hotothed had become one of the girls. Carl's little friend went into the folds making big talk along behind listening appreciatively. Carl grazed a little longly after a mix well with these single tulle stolls. After instructing him regarding the way he arrived from the a fall trip by the wagon, he turned to the big house, leaving Carl on the porch. The warmth and the warmth of the early sun was grateful. In a few minutes two fills added fills emerged from the field. One of them, well built, clear, and well-fitted, he new weight, greeted him familiarly. "Hello, Carl," she said. "How you have nawed me, I am fine, I’m fine, he managed." "How much cotton I got in my dad’s girl, who girl, who girl, who girl," Carl weighed the sack and plumped. "You’ve forty pounds, 'My name is nia. Miss' the plump and plumped. 'Miss Mei' Lissy for short—to you." "Don’t pay her no min!" the taller girl said. "In 'but' a flirt, all. Now me." “Elmira! You stop saying such about me!” Lissy cried. Carl was weighing Elmira's cotton, and sensing that the two girls were not really serious, he merely smiled and said nothing. Seeing this one's friend's efforts to draw him up, he had failed, the girls went laggingly back to their work, casting glances, which were a mixture of shyness and boldness, back over their shoulders. One after the other the various pickers dragged their sacks up to the scales to be weighed. Carl went about his work quickly and quietly, and the group had�ed out the sallies with which his son's friends greeted him, merely smiled and said little. Hot-shot was fulfilling his prophecy that he could pick much cotton by dragging up two seventy-pound sacks by ten o'clock, and by noon he had fifty pounds more, making a total hundred and ninety pounds. Apparently his cotton picking prowess had caused the large Sally to admire him, for she could with him each time he weighed, bringing her own filled sack. “Enjoy man what's in pack mo' cotton'n me is my kind a man!" she told her friends at noon. "Specially a little man." "An' any woman what can't almost keep up with me is my kind a woman!" Hotshot returned gallantly, with a sly word in Carl's direction. Then in one of his stage whispers he asked Sally, "Say, 'en' you cook like you pick "I oughta run you in de river," the big woman replied with well simulated indignation, "askin' me kin I cogk! Why, eff'n you ever sets yo' teeth in some of my sweet'taters and THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1930 fried meat you ain't never wants to eat nobody else's vitties! “When that gonna be?” the little man inquired with vociferous eagerness, much to the amusement of the others. “Don’be so fast!” Sally told him coolly. “Maybe never.” But there was that in her manner which indicated to the others that big Sally had found a new sweetie, and speculations were safe to what would happen when Sally’s sweetheart, Bud, returned from town where he had been for the past week. Carl sat a little off from the others, fully enjoying the rich humor which flowed around him in such plenitude. His quick eyes traveled from figure to figure, admiring the dark robust bodies, which in spite of their ragged clothes, seemed to possess an easy dignity that amased him. Here, he went to work, was color and life, and people of the people living close to the soil, with no worries, and few ambitions to make them miserable. Then the nought came to him of his ambitions—of his purpose in life, and he immediately saw these dark peasants in a different light, and felt a little sorry that they would never know the higher, finer things which he had planned for himself. Their lives, circumscribed by their lack of opportunity, must of necessity be narrow By now the sun, which had been shining for the day, burned with an intensity which created chinning heat waves all over the field. Overheated the sky of the day, burned with a intensity of clouds, their whiteness rivalling that of the cotton, to mar its vital color. The singer, whose voice high voice singing, Carl listened intently. "Do work hard Do boss ain't mean, Do whitest cotton I mote few." Then the whole field took up the chorus. "Pick de cotton Pick de boll Pick de pay Buy me a jelly-roll..." The fact that the pickers sang, the fact that the bollers paid, the fact that in Carl a new admioration for them, a new tolerance for heat, created in Carl a new ambition. They sang, they worked, they found pleasure in simple things, they made his friends in far off Chicago? That might in the small cabin assigned to him, Carl wrote to Anton Bigal. In his letter he told him of the circumstances which led to his present plight, and he asked, without evasion, if the banker could give him a position when he, Carl, returned to Chicago. When he had finished, he wrote another letter to Antoinette. After explaining the events which led to his working on the plantation, he described the place and its tenants. He told her of his friend, Hotshot, and of Colonel Baree. In conclusion he wrote: "Of course I have been so downcast by the loss of my parents that all else has been driven from my mind. However, I think often of you, and eagerly await the time when we will be together again. As soon as I have earned enough money to buy myself a respectable suit, and a ticket, I'll be on my way to Chicago and you. There is one thing that you don't need to worry about, and that is that I might in love with any of these plantation beauties. We don't seem to talk the same language—and anyway there could never be anyone as I love as you are. Write me at once and tell me all about yourself, my very dear." Having written the letters, Carl sealed them in envelopes he had obliterated. He strolled slowly to the big house where the mail box was. Overlooked a yellow wall, the shadowy path he trod, and the window jasmine seemed the night with exotic perfume. Soft wind, frightened with a swarm, waved the foliage with gen- ire ruttings. It brought to Carl the sound of singing voices drifting slowly through the night. . . . He heart constructed him as a beautiful woman of the beauty of the night, inter-mingled with a woman of the night, attained his mood to the languorous loveliness of the dark that his past life in the Northern city was a distant experience, and experienced living to live.

Black-Draught 25 Doses 25 Cents URGES BUSINESS METHODS FOR PHILANTHROPY URGES BUSINESS METHODS FOR PHILANTHROPY New York City.—(ANP)—Application for conservative and systematic business methods to their philanthropic or missionary endeavors, was urged upon the delegates to the National Baptist Convention, Unincorporated. At the Golden Jiblee celebration, held here, by Nathan Rathblott, rich Jewish realty promoter of Philadelphia. Mr. Rathblott paid a tribute to the zeal and the influence of the men of the church, commenting upon the impression which their force had made upon him, a spiritual strength which carried on long after their physical vigor had been impaired. But he criticised the church organization for its failure to provide a constructive plan to take care of its old ministers when they become too weak to support themselves. “Too many of your ministers become objects of charity whom you expect the state to take care of, or to whom you throw a stray nickel or dime as you pass them on street corners,” the Jewish financier asserted. “Such an attitude is not constructive, nor are its effects ample. The state is already overburdened with still less fortunate classes. The churches which you represent might easily remedy this condition if they went about it in a business-like way.” Mr. Rothbelt had already donated to the convention $500 in each and a quarter of the proceeds to Migshah, one of his development projects, in the city of Indira Gandhi indicated that the 29,000 churches of the convention would each build a church, similarly and unfailingly, for the case of old ministers, their widows and children. The church could be obtained for such aid, which would be ample to maintain a home for the widows, and a vide a guarantee against church leaders becoming public charges to the convention, the good influence of the church. The Jews, he told them, take care of their own better than any other race, but they are able to do so because their charities are organized according to the best business methods and are not made the victim of hap-hazard direction. Rathblott, a Russian Jew, now in his late thirties and several times a millionaire, came to this country at the age of 14, a penniless orphan.

One has the gout, one seems to have had a broken bone, one has been chewed on the fingers. The plump auto salesman seems surprised. What's this about the difference in hours the papa allowed Dr. J.

By the way, who started the rumor that the accountant was marqueting. W. Sanderson. MacDade or Chatham? Dan hurts the erstwhile Professor to terminate the whole University Club just because someone mentioned a litter. Who is that mule that hauls that load of books to Wheatley every morning? Say it is not a mule—only Henry Brown, the big ballahoo man, carrying Miss M. C.'s books. Dan received an invitation to the wedding of Dr. C. T. Ewell and Miss Mabel MacClanahan in Monroe, La. next Saturday. Leland Ewing's party last Saturday night honoring his Kappa brother, Mr. Poe, was the most righteous that Dan has ever heard of in these parts.

SEPTEMBER 27. 1930 STABBING WHITE MAN ALMOST ENDS IN RACIAL CLASH New York City.—(A riotous crowd of 700, half of them colored and the others white, milled around in the vicinity of 172d Street and Washington Avenue, the Bronx, Wednesday night, taking drastic sides after a dispute in which a white man had been stabbed. Serious race trouble was avoided when detectives and reserves from the Bathgate Avenue station, members of the homicide and emergency squads hurried to the scene and dispersed the quarrelling throngs. Apparently, the only casualty was Isadore Foreman, 48, of 1652 Washington. Avenue, who was suffering from knife wounds in the side. Police arrested two brothers, Daniel Bernard, 25, and Sam Bernard, 20, colored of 1665 Washington Avenue. Witnesses said Foreman was stabbed by the younger Bernard during a dispute in front of the latter's home. The small army of uniformed patrolmen and detectives soon banished all thoughts of active rioting from the crowd and quickly cleared the street. Extra men were detailed there to prevent further outbreak. The Bernard brothers were taken to the police station for questioning.

No effort was made in gathering the collection to make it distinctively racial but one which would be of high quality by any standard, so that many styles and subjects are to be being and even some European accents. The outstanding features have, however much of the racial quality in them. The artists are not one group but from various cities. Most striking oil paintings are "The Voodoo Tree" and a skyscraper study by Henry B. Jones; "Washerwoman" by Hale A. Woodruff; "Civil War" by John W. Hardwick; "Generations of Ethiopia Today" by Albert Smith; 2 flat decorations by Mary Lee Tate, and a portrait by Ellis Wilson.

He may mute the table, or address with scowling when the muppet counsel, claiming Who is such a man? Nobody knows. His friend, Dr. Edward Adams of Michigan City, and who has declared that Washington confessed the crime to him the day it was committed, who has known him for seven years, and who permitted him to sleep in his office betimes, says that this strange being told him he was born in a hospital some forty years ago, that his mother died at the time of his birth and that his father was killed in a coal mine disaster a week before he was born. He lay claim to no kin, averring that he was reared by white Roman Catholics, albeit his education was oddly neglected. He has never been married, but, posing as William Morehead, told the late Edward L. Pierson, in the presence of his son, that the girl he had expected to marry had died on the day before he was to wed her and that he had never since been able to find one to his liking. “Where did you meet him?” Dr. Adams was asked. “I don't know, I reckon in a poolroom,” was the reply. The background which any of those many who seem to know him will know is that he was a criminal, his crimes have been perilous and crime. But, if he had been a criminal, his crimes have been perilous. He killed that preacher over in the back of it, because nobody could ever prove that the dishwasher in Indiana had seen alive he was entering a car with Washington who was known to have taken time he was seen, the next day time he was seen, the next day body could prove or tried to prove that Washington was the murderer. They the KKu Klux Klan in Indiana, they the KKu Klux Klan in Washington's well-known city, they well-known in their beheady." Well, you know, he used to pull white people off when they were in their beheady." Certain white people befriended him on a bonhomie without a show of burying him an important firm. How could he employ Bonfamille, who is said to have received $3,000 and is said to have been burying a busy head of an important firm. Is it because Clawson was ever interested in For whom was Washington working, Adam, second successor to Dr. John A. McCormick, sought to organize a branch of the black KKK to attack Washington, not a fact that Washington, Clawson, the white lawyer, and Adams, all nine, long before the crime was committed. Dr. Adams' testimony in court told of meeting Clawson months before he was made by Washington. The understanding was that Clawson was to be admitted to the court, and Adams, who paid him the sum of $25,000, was to be presented to the judge's referee by the appointed lawyer Clawson, in court. It is also a fact that Adams about drives masters, and that when such correspondence was referred to Clawson, referee efforts to Build Y An Inve IN HOC SYL THE C THE C Sylvan T place which i property offer be served by water, lights all other conv Now is th build your h twelve month race lot will b now.

Emby & Gillette sell your lot, let and build your home on exactly the same margin of profit as they have in their white additions. The integ- rent rate is exactly the same. The colored public's confidence in Emby & Gillette prove that a square deal ALWAYS WINS! tell the court all that was in that correspondence. Washington has no money. Adams swears he went to jail owing him. Who is paying Bomisfield $3,000? Who is paying Clawson? Did Washington ever work for the Ku Klux Klan, as Adams says. Did Clawson ever work for the order? Did they work together? Where did Washington live? “If anybody calls you and asks for me, notify Carl Loesey,” Adams testified Washington told him. In this city, Washington was in and out of the dormitory of the Young Men's Christian Association. When the man Morehead who has been identified as Washington, came to visit the elder Pierson in Chicago, he stopped at the Wabash Avenue "Y." He was arrested in the Y. M. C. A. building here, but he was not living there at the time. When Dr. A. M. Townsend, Jr., went to Michigan City after the murder, looking for Washington, driving in a friend's car because his own looked "too much like the one murdered Edward Pierson was picked up in," he sought out Adams. Adams notified Loesey, who was to tell Washington that Townsend was looking for him. Carl Losey is a white man. He is a slight, short blue, furtive-eyed, white man. He is a member of the state highway police of Indiana. He is the man supposed to, know more than anybody else about coffee-colored George Washington. Plied with questions in court, he snapped his answers defiantly. He has known Washington for eight years. He always where Washington was. He could get in touch with him. If a call came for Washington to Adams in Michigan City, Adams was to notify Losey in Indianapolis. Even Adams, in whose office Washington slept when in Michigan City, whom Washington posed off as his cousin and to whom he had a $5,000 insurance policy made out, was not allowed to know where this mysterious character kept himself. He told Adams that he he lived in the Y. M. C. A.C. that he was too true. Carl Losey, however, could reach him. "You and Mr. Washington have been the best of friends, haven't you?" white haired Eph Inman asked the midst policeman. "Yes," snapped Losey. "You've worked together, haven't you?" pursued Inman. "Yes!" without perturbation. "And you've slept together, too, haven't you?" thundered Inman, half rising out of his chair. "Yes," the jaws of Losey clicked as he turned his eyes to Inman in a challenge. "That is all, concluded lament. It is about at four in the morning. At midnight of the day of the crime declared, the crime to him in Michigan City, Ohio, on the morning of the seventeenth, he asserts, he again saw Washington Carl Leoey declared that Washington came into his office at half-acre past of the morning of the day of the crime being telephoned in, and that he, Washington Rollin, had secured a map in the office to find the location of the Mausa body was found. On the next day the body declared. Washington was again with him until near noon. a complete alibi against the story of Dr. THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1930 Adam if what Lester tells is true Adams it what Losey tells it true. He was in what Losey says, Washington had no job, was connected with no payroll. Yet, he and Losey worked together, according to the whites they do. They were the ones who tell the truth as they do. Why were they fond of each other? Is Losey protecting his friend and the truth as he knows it to be. When Washington was arrested in Washington, confessed the crime to the revolver. Adams testified that when Washington confessed the crime to the revolver, Where? At any rate, the police had prosecuted him for procurement for him by Carl Losey. Why should Losey purchase a gun for him? Did Losey know where the old gun was? Did Losey know that the old gun has been obtained through the application of prosecution, that the old gun has been obtained through the application of prosecution, that he had committed a crime with it and Losey remain quiet with it. Did Losey know where the prosecution that it allied with the prosecution and that it allied to be the one with which Pierson was That Washington knew the Towns's send a key to the Towns's testified that Washington, from his home, posing as Morehead, called the junior Townsend in Chicago two days before the enyestleds Morgand, idealized by the number of Washington, made the visit to Piersen's home. He also claimed that Washington showed him letterheads across the top of which was printed the senior Towns' send's name. Washington himself is said to have admitted that he was ex- ployed in Washington. He attempted the assassination of Townsend. The $110 check from Townsend is alleged to have been for his service in the con- nection. But how much work had Washington done for Townsend? What standing or authority did it have as an investment? Who would have asked the Rev. E. J. F. Westbrook to endorse the Townsend check? Where did he obtain the Nashville bank notes found on his person when arrested? All of these queries, arising out of the testimony at the recent babas corpus hearing, wait upon the trial for an answer. Washington will be ably defended by the law of the law. As this is written, no information has been obtained as to the security for his $10,000 bond. Who will offer that security ? He has no relatives. What friends will come to his aid? Will the aid of such friends be of any sign that he is related to the parties in impoable for the shooting of death of Edward D. Piersen?

Sylvan Terrace Not Like Most Colored Additions Editor's Note—The management of The Houston Informer publishes the following letters in the belief that they are self-explanatory. I have read your editorial "Negro Additions in Houston," and wish to correct the inference likely to be gained by your readers, that all Houston real estate dealers are guilty of profiteering methods in dealing with colored people. Admitting that the information it is justified as a banker change against the entire real estate business of the city. In support of this contention Embry & Gillette offer their colored subdivision -Sylvan Terrace- as an example of a homeplace being marketed on a policy directly opposed to that reviewed in the white homeplace across the track. The same interest rates are charged on contracts. Yet Sylvan Terrace lots of the same size are priced from 15% to 20% lower than those in the white homeplace across the track. Yet Sylvan Terrace are as carefully supervised and constructed as those of similar type built for white people. In addition to this, a colored contractor of unquestionable integrity, together with colored mechanics, are used in connection with the construction of the homes. Their margin of profit is no larger than that received on any other building. The same interest rates are applied to am prepared to substantiate with unquestionable evidence and with signed statements of colored residents of Sylvan Terrace and other colored additions put on by Embry & Gillette.

This will acknowledge with thanks your very kind letter of a few days ago in which you called attention to our editorial "Negro Additions in Houston," and gave us facts concerning the Embry and Gillette Land Development Company. We attempted to deal with the question of the development of Negro additions in a very general way and to indicate the facts concerning the way in which prospective Negro home owners are forced to pay very high and sometimes exorbitant prices for acreage and homesites. I note from your letter that you do not set up a general denial of fees and are forced to pay an insight into the methods by which your company has helped materially in making fine homesites available to Negro owners at reasonable rates. The truth of the statements concerning your company is very easily proven by the testimony of those who have had dealings with the company in the article, but we cannot assume company. It is a pleasure for me, in behalf of the Webster Richardson Publishing Company to make public your letter which I think, for itself. I think it is true, however, that most of the companies developing the company are forced to such fairness as is indicated in your letter, therefore, The Informer feels that a general retraction of the article is not now in place.

With forty men on the field for practice at Knoxville College, Coach Wallace O. Hawkins is saying little about prospects for the year. Observers say that he is well pleased with the showing made by his great-son during the first days of training. While a number of valuable players were lost by graduation last spring there are eight lettermen back in school led by Captain Leonard, veteran of several seasons. A number of the new men are showing up well and safe in their chance of capturing places among the regular. Assiting Coach Hawkins with his work this year is Joe Matthews, who has had a number of years of football experience. Mr. Matthews played center on the Knoxville team last year and will have the line men under the direction of the team at the Knott-King and Matthews attended the football coaching school at Northwestern University during the last two weeks of August. On the whole, prospects look better for the team than they did last year. The positions are giving the coaches some trouble as there is lack of material, but some of the new men may develop into dependable wing men. A schedule of eight games has been announced for the year. The last week of November is open and an additional game is be contracted for that day. The schedule follows: Oct. 4—Kentucky State at Knoxville. Oct. 11—Morehouse College at Atlanta. Oct. 18 - Bluefield Institute at Bluefield. field. Oct. 35 - Talladega at Knoxville (Home coming).

C.—(ANP) Illiteracy has been recognized in the states of Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama, and Louisiana, according to the report of the National Association of Illiteracy. Morgan was launched by the commission through this campaign, and the campaign learned to read and write. One of the interesting phases of the campaign was the interest manifested by it. It was learned that many who had been illiterate years joined the ranks of school children and had "won their certificate." PAGE FIVE HARRISBURG Harrisburg, Texas.—Mrs. Froddie Holden, wife of Rev.

MEXIA PAGE SIX William Pickens SAYS OANP ANTONIO MACEO, THE GREAT The most that the colored people of the United States know of Antonio de Alvarado, the first of the 1900s, is the rebellion against Spain in Cuba, for a quarter century or so, and was killed in h氵a g jie j j before it was achieved. And American white people do not know that much about him; they do not know that much about him; they do not have a strong extraordinary is supposed to be a Negro. They do not even have a strong extraordinary is supposed to be a Negro. The most that the yatch club, which could not join the yatch club, is the ordinary people from the United States. The United States were the only people from where the heroic statue of Maceo stands up, riding in from seaward, as the most well-splenized community of the United States. And the picture of the walls of the parlor of the Atenas shows Maceo, and nine of his classics are the only people in the city of Kingston, Jamaica. So many of the patriot leaders had been in the city of Kingston, and he was a great leader of the party of the king, and he gathered for a photograph in Kingston, where ten of them found them in the city of Kingston. The number of the people of the parlor of the Atenas was never stopped; while Marti travelled all over North and South America, making special measures, the military leaders, chief among them being Maceo and Gomes, kept up the fight. Then he was sent to the city of Kingston and to other islands or to Central America or Mexico, later to return and at-the-market to the country. The people of the country were once a refugee in Central America, he was warned not to at-the-market to the country. Speakily, he was one of the spies there to shoot him. He went, because he could not be stopped by more than a year, and the precautionary plan all pretexts for killing him. One of his fellow patriots accompanied him. They were very very good to the people who were at the heart, but some object in the theatre. His companion was instantly killed with a fire. He was at the击落 the man who received a bullet in the shoulder. Later when the doctor was probing for it to Maceo: "I have found it." Maceo replied: "Are you sure that is the right?" There are seven full-time body members, all have received one of the others." Before the Spaniards finally got him in 1896, he had the last two got him. From them. Gomez was in the west end of Cuba, hard-pressed. His men were threatening to mutiny, as the Spainards had all supplies cut off and hunger was allied with Spain. The Spainards also had a line across the island, north to south, separating Gomez from Maceo's forces in the east end of Cuba. Gomez sent word to Maceo to bring him help, if possible, else his starving men would have to capitulate to the Spainards. With barely 150 men, Maceo, like a mad lion, broke through the Spanish line, actually got through, then turned to attack them. He was raging that day. He got killed as he stood up and fired without cover—but his men got to Gomez and new courage was put into the Cuban rebellion, until the United States entered to avenge the Maine (which perhaps the A Good looking, 'lax' He?

Your skin troubles will respond quickly to this combination treatment, used according to directions, because the "special" soap thoroughly cleanses the areas and the ointment heals irritated tissues. More than that, this treatment—mildly astringent and bleaching—refines the skin's texture and lightens the complexion—makes it clearer and fainter in tone. The man or woman whose skin is soft, smooth and clear-toned is always popular--for there is no appeal so powerful as complexion beauty. Black and White Ointment and Skin Soap is the one sure way to a beautiful skin (grandma did not sit) and Cuba made no wonder. The Cuban regard Maceo as their mentor. And now they are building a museum.

Although Maceo was killed in his spirit led the Cubaans until the first Cuban president, who made them about him, they demi-feminine. He was "the Liberator." Maceo was the United States was turning Cuba over to the Cuban government. He made them about him, to come to Havana to the celebration.

But the affectionate and expressive Latin woman did the job; the people unhitched the people drew Sesona Maceo to the palace. Yes, Maceo has a descendant, a son who seems to have descended quite considerably. Of course, he has a government job. He went to school in America and is married to a white girl from Syracuse, N. Y. That is not a crime, of course; but this man whose mother and father were both Negroes, has been trying to forget that he is colored, shuns the people of his father's blood, and does an "Alice Rhinelander" by trying to pass for white, where it is absolutely unnecessary to do so. One may marry a white person in entire self-respect; but one shows an inferiority spirit when one claims to be what one is not. If a white person wants to marry a colored person, because that colored person is of social standing, that colored person should insist that he or she be taken for what he or she is. Undoubtedly the Negro and colored element were the backbone of the recurrently prevails with them, the darker race, the more virile the heritage which their fathers did so much to for the nation.

A controversy concerning the place of Negro music in American life arose in the music class of which Ernest H. Mays, the composer of the piece, and Mr. Hays is professor of piano and theory in the Hampton school of music where he assists R. Nathaniel Mays. Mr. Hays defended the place of Negro music and was called upon to furnish information about it as well as to give an exposition of his concluding work. To illustrate his point, Mr. Hays gave a choral and instrumental recital. The event attracted so much attention that other classes abounded their own performances, and he drew the demonstration. A fine choir of white with a trained soloist gave the performance of choirs chosen chiefly the works of R. Nathaniel Dett, featuring especially his "Juvenile" performance. When the recital closed the audience gave Director Raymond and the choir a declaration to have been one of the outstanding features of the Summer School.

ROLAND HAYES WILL NOT LEAVE UNITED STATES New York City.—(ANP)—A cable from Roland Hayes to his management in Boston refutes a rumor which has had some circulation to the effect that he intends to relinquish his American citizenship. The cable roads: "I have no intentions of changing my American citizenship. I have never entertained such a thought. My manifested interest in America and the philanthropic work to which I devote practically the whole of the financial gain from my tours, namely for student aid and the maintenance of an experimental farm in rural Georgia directed to the purpose of community uplifts are such import to me that an idea of the north is beyond my imagination."—Roland Hayes. Mr. Hayes will return from Europe next month to open his seventh tour of his own country. This tour, one of his most extensive, will include both Eastern and Western cities and parts of his native South which he has never visited before. Texts has assumed property values (1980) of $4,280,000,000 and real values of thrice that huge total. The Honston Informer many years and the state has succeeded admirably in accomplishing its objective. Negroes are down. But white men and their civilization are down also. Schools are poor. Modern methods have not worked effectively to develop the natural resources of the state as they should have been developed. Culture within the state is still defined in terms of inadequate libraries and poor infrastructure. In North Carolina, just the reverse has happened under just the reverse psychology on the part of the leadership of that state. And so it is reasonable to hope that the repudiation of Blease means the repudiation of the ideas which he represented. It is not that Blease has been a mongrel with the mobs which he so gallantly praised and encouraged, he gives place to a more enlightened leadership which is definitely dedicated toward the establishment of justice in the courts and the spread of brotherly love and mutual tolerance. Without these, there can be no real cooperation between the classes of white men and black men. In these cases, there can be no real progress either economic or cultural. NEW COMMISSION TO STUDY LYNCHING News dispatches of this week indicate that a new commission to study lynching has been appointed in Georgia. It is composed of editors of some of the leading journals of that state together with a number of other experts. At time, it is indicated that under the direction of the N. A. A. C. P. and its supporters, a new ant-lynch law is being drafted with a view to submitting it within the next few months to Congress. Both of these procedures are being undertaken in view of the increase in lynchings within the past few months in this country. The commission is also working with the Interracial Committee and the law by the N. A. A. C. P. The Informer believes that both of the projects are vitally necessary. The one as sponsored by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has the carkmarks of militantism. The other is working along different lines and the lines of study and discussion with as little of the militant to mark it as has been the case with all of the work done by that organization herefore. There can be no doubt that the work of both organizations has been profitable in the past although they worked along different lines and the reason to that effect has been good. The problem of lynching is by far the most grievous that America faces today. Those who have studied it from several angles realize that there is no single reason for the recurrence of the various types of mob murders which have scoured the pages of newspapers and newspapers of the United States have played their part. Economic pressure has had its share in the equation. Politics has contributed to some extent; and by far the most significant circumstance in connection with the question is the fact that it is no longer sectional in its scope. It is not sectional in the North or East as it is in the South where it had its birth. The Informer believes that it will be eradicated from American life only when savagery in American psychology has given place to more enlightened ideas and procedures. The history of mankind proves that society has come to its present state of perseverance. It is not surprising that as a by the pressure of circumstance which was the direct result of all of the forces which operate in society, Leaders of thought and those who stand at the forefront of American life and thought must have the gravity of the problem brought before them in such a way as to challenge them, active support in it, and a willingness to be involved in the largest share in the work. Those who have the mind of the beast and whose hearts are attuned to the siren songs of the demagogue and the bigot must be compelled by a fear of the law to stay within the confines of the bounds of decency. There a law against lynching, if passed, will serve its largest purpose. The organizations that work with the organizations may well supplement each other. And the part of the general public, without regard to race, in the whole situation should be that of the helpful partner in an enterprise which will result in lasting good to a nation which now is being sorely beaten by the forces of harborman and which stands in the shadow of harborman so long as it does not assert itself in behalf of decency. NEGRO WAITERS TO STRESS SERVICE The more than 10,000 delegates to the annual convention of the National Association of Colored Waiters and Hotel Employees, which is being held in Chicago this week, are stressing "service" and the need for study to prove themselves more efficient in the carrying on of their professions. It is being pointed out that the staff of the hotel owners are being replaced over the country and that hotel owners and managers are indicating that the changes from Negro help are being made because the type of service which others give is superior to that of Negroes. To offset the condition in Chicago, the local branch of the association is conducting schools in the city to train foreign languages and it is planned that a large part of the time of the training will be devoted to actual schools of instruction during the week. The Informer commends the spirit of the leaders of the organization and recommends the adoption of the same type of thought on the problem of labor for the leaders of groups in all other occupations among us. Not only should the waiters of Chicago and New York be trained to contribute better service than any other class of hotel employees but they should go farther and actually study to contribute definitely to the sum total of the knowledge and practice of that particular field. The activity in this regard should be a part of the task of the organization in Houston as well as in every section of the hotel industry. The job of the side against Negro hotel help would be turned toward that help. The time has come in America when there can be no middle ground. It may as well be realized that there are no more "all Negro" jobs. White men and Mexicans will now take any sort of job, and from now on it will simply be a case of the "survival of the few." The hotel industry has thought, interest in the job, and punctuality at all times. It is to be hoped that the idea of study will spread from the hotel men to men of our race in all lines of endeavor. Competition will become keeper as time goes on. There is one sure way to escape economic slavery for us as for all others in this country. That is to study of study to show ourselves more efficient than our competitors.

Two more of the policemen of the city of Houston have been killed in the line of duty. And to the credit of the Chief of Police and his force, the murders have already been apprehended. The police have also been charged with the credit is due the force for its speed and precision in the case. It is also noteworthy, in this particular case, that there has been no talk of lynching of the two suspects on the part of the daily papers and, if one is willing to read between the lines it might be described as a plea for leniency, despite the fact that both of the stain officers were among the favorites on the force by reason of their efficiency. Just before the opening of the National Democratic convention in 1972, the murderer in which a policeman lost his life. The murderer was a Negro, according to report. He was wounded; and while lying on his bed at the hospital with little chance to recover, he was taken out and lynched. Just what the outcome of the cases against the suspects was has not been determined. The police are not sure that the cases are closed and that nothing more is to be expected. Just what is the difference between the two situations? One of those commenting upon the most recent happening indicated that there must be something wrong with a member of the police. The police are not sure that the cases are closed and that nothing more is to be expected. Just what is the difference between the two situations? One of those commenting upon the most recent happening indicated that there must be something wrong with a member of the police. The police are not sure that the cases are closed and that nothing more is to be expected. Just what is the difference between the two situations? The Informer feels that in just such ideas lies the crux of the whole situation. Murder is murder whether done by men with white or black skins. Citizens are citizens whether they have white or black skins. The law is set up for the government of the whole people without regard for race or creed. The laws of society are calculated to direct the membership in society. When a black man of the same age is the other membership in society, when a black man of the same age is the other membership and by murder he is not more guilty than any other man who does the same thing. It should be true that society considered the deeds as such and attempted to fit the punishment to the deed in the interest of society. Unfortunately there is proof of the fact that this has not been consistently done. Black men have been penalized for their color as well as for their crimes, in the correspondingly, who have committed any sin but black men that they have been applaud-for the people. It is natural then that there should have grown up within this class of society the idea that wrong doing was determined largely by circumstances other than ideas of morality as they have been pronounced from time to time. That sort of idea explains mob murders. It explains the easy movement of the deprived in society from wrong inflicted on the helpless, usually Negroes, to that inflicted on others. And so particularly in the South, we have the spectacle of the "boomerang and ample proof of the fact that unless all men are safe under the The Informer hopes that the law in this latest case will be sure and impartial. It is most happy for Houston that the impulses of those who loved the slain men are being held in check and that the law will be made clear that such procedure will become the rule in all cases and that out of serious reflection on the difference in the practice in such cases where men of different races are guilty, the conviction of the truth of the statement that unless the law applies impartially to the men, the lives and property of no safe are made. SOUTH CAROLINA REPUDIATES BLEASE Some weeks ago, The Informer called attention to the fact that Cole Blease, well known Negrophobe of South Carolina had won the Democratic nomination on a platform which called for the establishment of a new state news diapests from the general elections indicate that this eminent advocate of the rope and the faggot has been beaten and his state in the future time will be represented by one who was not a candidate. For this evidence of an approach to civilization and enlightenment the majority of the voters of South Carolina are to be complimented. Their repudiation of the ideas expressed by Blease will go far toward remedying many of the fortunate aspects of his state. The information that much further advanced along economic and cultural lines than it now is. The defeat of Blease, to The Informer, is not only the repudiation of a man, but it is the repudiation of the backwardness of the state and the backwarding hindered the progress of the state which he has represented. "Hell's For Rent" By J. RLEY DUNGER (Portland Fellow Dellenes of Hell Fellow Dellenes of Hell my doy lalie story— Heart hears the lalie story and gone with my glory. In unexcelled malignity, Till Mississippi raped my Till Mississippi raped my peace. Becker Washington spoke much better than he knew when he declared that those who would hold men down in the mire must content themselves to stay in the mire also. The state of South Carolina is a fine example of that fact. All of their thinking, unquestioned, is based on the fact that in some cases in terms of the effect which it would have on the Negro, "Keep the Negro down" has been the slogan in that state for In diabolic cruelty, I mastered all the while; Mistress Muskett awakened Beside a Mistress insulted. I look like Abraham; bases a Mississippi mob; this camp don't count a damn. The natoonage of former time, no longer I command; Fear I am not the foul cleric in Mississippi Land; No natoonage in Missouri; my prestige to reclaim; To set up my domination there my fame. I too infuriate me; it's not like home to so me; so hell's for rent, and I am bent to do it; this form-farming synagogue, Will drive a demon dipy; I'll be a damn mob; I'm bound for Mississippi. President Hoover On Lynching Evil President Hoover On Lynching Evil By KELLY MILLER, Howard University, Washington, D. C. At last President Hoover has condemned the lynching evil, by proxy. His secretary was authorized to reply to a request 107 expression of sentiment that by the redoubtable Walter White that he regards this evil as a threatening national evil. It was wholly unsolicited by the government. He said he would record in this roundabout way. Everyone knows how our good Quaker president must feel on this, as an all vicious practice. No man who could beला仔己 would be a very good man who has other views. President Hoover is not in the habit of speaking academically or merely for the spectacularly effect of an utterance eliminating from the White House, the state of the United States. He said that the law would be so much called upon to sanction or dif�varoe every issue of popular interest, whether it be in the heavens above, the earth beneath, or the waters under the ground. He said that the law would be so much for the public government, he satisfied the public with a single short sentence—“Every body knows where I stand.” This is that President Hoover might well limit his himself to lynching to such a methodical action. He said he had no constructional action. We have had a constructive action. We have had an identical declarations. He also had no essential but words, words, words of the president. The president was a one-time official. The president on the news that all of the Metropolitan Church, under the auspices of the Howard University Alumni Association. He addressed his whole discourse to the president of lynching. But the practice of the president of lynching was the only one of the most sermonising by the president on national evils that call for drastic action does more harm than good. Of all sinners in this regard, in my judgings, he has a great good and good brown. Never a message escaped his pen but that he reminded the American people that they ought not to lynch the Negro. His intentions were not to be a sinless act of vanity, but to a plighter. Whenever you try to limit the evil of lynching to the Negro, you thereby block the way of any effective remedial action. The failure of the president to do any thing to the president is very important. He also asked the most arduous life to any one aided racial feature as to any cause. There is little hope for class legislation with the Negro as the intended beneficiary. I am glad that the law would not be so far from being a result of the encomagement of lynching. Lynching is the most atrocious form of lawlessness which wreaks its vengeance on the people. The law would not be so much as to make them so that some black and others white? What has the racial proportion to do with the enormity of the inquiry? During the past fifty years five thousand American citizens have been so far in force. The law would not be so much as to have been white. The American people would have the same stain on the conscience if no single Negro had ever been the victim. The bulk of the drastic blacks of the world was very much to him. I was led to say, “the Negro is too closely lynched.” The American people are glad enough to explain away this great national disgrace by giving out the impression that only Negroes are the victims of the attack. The men are fed on this feeling. Recently the governor of a great state dispatched an emissary to Europe to explain away his persafeffum dismal of his crimes, and was only a Negro. In conspionance with this idea, the crime of rape is sought to be imputed as the justifying ground for the dire punishment. The apologists strive to convince the authorities that it is a peculiar form of outrage limited to the Negro, and that the punishment but aptly fits the crime. They are not whit abashed by statistical retribution. The record of rape as disclosed in the book is that it is not in any sense a peculiar Negro failing. In the latest instance of lynching in Marion, Indiana, two rapists were taken by the mob and were charged for the same crime, or alleged crime. I see that the great Republican party promised in its platform to pass a bill that would require performance blank. The Negro delegates at Kansas City undoubtedly urged them to this resolution. It was a clear signal to the delegates to the gullible Negro delegation. When the American people awoke to the moral stigma of lynching of a black man, they were branding this aniquitous practice branding upon the moral forehand of the nation for foreigners to look at, and for the black people to firmly in hand. In the meeting. OPINIONS hope that President Hoover will not consider that he has discharged his duty in the preamble by authorizing his own officers in place seven nitting in his behaf. THE ECONOMIC OUTLOOK BY LELAND D. EWING (Substituting for C. W. W.) For the last six months the phrase, "hard times," has been through al- much more than the fashion. This is justified by the fact that we have seen the great busi- ness that has ever been witnessed by man. As for the cause of this condition many financial businesses and business managers have attributed to some attribute it to our system of mass production, some attribute it to a time in the cycle for a depression, and others to a period of ward since 1913, with only a little viva- dance due to the seasonal fluctuation of the weather. We have created an inflated dollar and the upward movement must stop long before the depression occurs in the dollar and release the hot air. The reason for the depression is we are more interested in the results before it hits a business depression and not to be considered by Ne- w Yorkers in the positive position and thus throw our black faces, bearing marks of horror and distress, in the picture of this de It is true that this is the first time that it has struck us with such a blow. We have lost jobs that we have held for years. We have been murdered, lynched and run down like dogs by whites because we have held jobs that we have had to fight by stifling us out of the way physically would secure the jobs for themselves. Although depressions wreak hardships upon a country, they always carry with them a lesson that cannot be obtained any other way. As a country, we have learned that we have too many products, utilities, and too much time to be utilities; but what lesson has our race learned? As I have said, we are in the picture, but why and how? Our faces were caught by the eyes of the camera because we were weak financially and parasites upon other races for our support, and maintenance of our environment, and made no heavy by the financial strain that all excess weight had to be removed if they were to survive the storm. Thus, as a useless and empty knapsack, we were cast from their shoulders to relieve their burden as they trod toward higher grounds. The camera finds us floating helpless and disarmable, the swollen river of her and distress without a leaf to grab while we struggle on our way. We haven't even a piece of bread, which we should have put in our pockets while we were eating from the horn of plenty a few years ago. If we reach the shore, we will be too late to join the other race like a wrought to-wheat to mobilize our horrifying situation. Then, what are we to do? Although the way is dark all is not clear, we must be the leading forecasters in nearly we must now begin proactively ourselves for the next one which is so sure to commence. Of all, we must have means of securing jobs. This can be accomplished in units within the Negro business which are producing units in themselves. Negro business and untiring support of Negroes, no can Negroes succeed without the support of two are so closely related, let us all put our shoulders to the wheel and we put our hands to the wheel; it may to the bone, our blood will be the mark of success of the coming second. Let us save to the fullest extent so that when the flood comes again, we can go to our pockets with our hands, and we can feed the bread which we have saved and eat to our heart's content. A system of solidarity and cooperation. Let us for sure gain so that when we are called upon again to show our strength, we will be able to carry on and can laugh at the waves of hunger and distress try to hear us. Lastly be prepared for the depression will come again. Homely Philosophy GOOD HEALTH Health is usually undervalued until it is menacled or lost. With health, it is a matter of being seen and see them through; the sky seems ever blue and the step has spring water.
