The BLACK LILY by CORA BALL MOTEN PAGE TWO "What He Saw Ma Installment I A NARROW ESCAPE John Northington paused. He had seen a single tuft of leaves quivering high up in the black green canopy of the jungle roof. Before he could move, a thin, zinging sound slit the hot stillness. With the noise, the man threw himself prone on the rotted green carpet of the overgrown trall. A slender shaft, winged with brilliant red feathers, struck the bole of a great tree beside the trail with a soft thud. It trembled there for a space and stood rigid. Before one could take a long breath John Northington rolled half over. The movement brought the tree between him and the straight line of space leading upward to the still quivering tuft of greenery. Immediately he drew himself erect and pressed his body flat against the tree. The disturbance above hesitated. Over at the left, another movement began. John Northington did not see that. He moved cautiously around the bole of the tree, as the first disturbance ecreled jerkily like some creature jumping from branch to branch behind the heavy curtain of tangled leaves and vines above him. Suddenly the jerking movement ceased. Northington, facing it, but out of line because of the tree trunk, paused, too. He raised the gun that he held dangling from his right hand. His brown hand showed pale at the knuckles as he sighted along the barrel. In the center of the oscillation above and behind him something moved. The sounds were simultaneous. The man threw himself forward a second time even as they shattered the jungle into sudden startled life. A Nude Rescuer Amid a great rustling of leaves, cracking of branches and excited scurrying of small, wild things, a naked brown body slithered, bumping and thumping clumsily through the vineyards, covered branches in front of him, strike with a dull thud on the yielding jungle floor. But this time a red winged shaft stood quivering violently in the protesting muscles of John Northington's broad shoulder, while behind him a sudden commotion jerked him around in spite of the pain. What he saw made him forget for a moment the stinging wound in his shoulder. Out of the branches above, grappling and swaying, tearing and biting in a grimly sinister silence, two figures hurtled to the ground, almost at his feet. One, the naked figure of a man, clad in nothing but breech clout, still clutched in his left hand the bow from which the shaft in Northington's shoulder had been shot. The weapon impeded his efforts to fend off the wild attacks of the most beautiful creature that the wounded man had ever set eyes upon. It was a woman. As he looked, she had half shielded her she wrestled with the naked man, fell away. She glinted in the green shadows like the reflection of a water nymph at the dance of a fantastic dance beneath the waves. Without moment's hesitation, John Nolens was a losing battle for the woman. The Unbarbed Arrow With a swift, strong blow, straight from the shoulder, he struck out as the snarling face of the man came in line with his fist. The blow took the writhing figure straight on the point of the chin. His head snapped back with a cleking sound. There was an ominous cracking as of broken bones and the second naked brown body crumpled up suddenly and slid to the ground, the head twisted at that impossible angle that told John Northington that his old skill was still true. He had broken the neck, as he meant to do. Not for nothing, had his fame as the crack wrestler and all-round athlete at Howard University eamented a friendship himself and Ramon Montez, multimillionaire South American Indian, his room and class mate for four years. The encounter had taken only a moment. But in that second the tremendous muscular exertion had loosened the arrow to such an extent that it fell to the ground. It was entirely unbarbed. As he looked down at it, John Northington's face paled. The girl sprang forward to his side. Her own beautiful face was bloodless. "Quick, senior, it is the poisoned arrow of zee innair guard of ze Black Lillee. It is death eef I do not sock ze poison." She was upon him like a bolt from the blue. Her lithe, rounded body clinging to him like a panther eat upon a tree bole, she applied a pair of soft rosy lips to the wound and up and out on his shoulder. For a space there was a tense silence but for the steady auction and song, the man relaxed entirely to the ministration of the girl. At last it was "Quietly, easily she alld from her place on him." The man's Drum Message. At her feet the long grey-length of cloth lay in a crumpled robe. She looked relieved, she stopped and with a single graceful movement swabbed herself in "I est the altair cloth from the drum bites" she spoke as she folded it. She stood in the church worship I get the message from the drum bites that carry so far from the camp where my Ranon stop on the ground. The black Lillee temple grove of the Black Lillee so sacred, but so far the bride of the so sacred, but so far by these priests of our people. THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1930 "But—" the girl's voice was anxious. The compliment had no meaning to her ears now. "My Ramon did not know that the priests had spy in the camp. They know that won't be mak' the sacred call of the drum beat in his priest robe he mak's other call. They know he had been in the so far away American school and he teach me strange theongs won't he come to us in the summers so they watch." "And I—I have so much hope won't my Ramon send by the sound of the drum beat (jus' a leetle change as we have arrange betwees us to talk in the drum language won't he mak' the religious rite) the news that he is sending his fren' by the old trail to meet me—that I mak' glad look at wrong time." "I know ine guard he see. So won't they tak my priestess garment away an' tell the guards to follow an' meet you with the poison death, I steal the altair cloth that I wrap aroun' me and steal after the guards." "I mus' go the tree paths like them—high up—so still. I can only watch one. I dare not mak' noise for othair will see and stop. So I pray an'—you are safe senior, si?" She smiled up at him. "Now we mus' go softly by thes othair trail for the priests won't they fin' I am not in the inner room they com' cheek after us. They mus' not fin'," she shuddered. "Come!" Her Flance's Camp Without another word the girl glided like a shadow into the almost oblique angles to the one on which John was standing. The man knew that each sound he made behind her, however slight, was a ripple in the body under the grey green wrapping that gave the ripple a smooth flow. The smoothly flowing curves from neck to knee, reminiscent of him the old skull, filled with some wild-wool creature. After what seemed endless hours he just barely caught the glimmer just beyond he caught the glimmer. Sudden recognition flashed into his eyes. He stepped closer to the girl. Their eyes traveled instinctively in the same direction. There, just beyond the sluggish flowing tropical river was the glint of brown canvas through the trees. It was the camp where Ramon Montez awaited the outcome of the precarious errand upon which he (watched and suspected by his fellow tribesmen over whom he was traditional ruler and priest), did not dare to enter. Educated as he had been by an ambitious father, whose contact with the traders was the foundation of his great wealth, Haitian Monads had an interest with his knowledge, other things. He knew that the Hileli Black, well-known people for so many generations, was blooming, but a butler ruse of blooming, was a better rule of thumb. He won power over an ignorant people. The Inner Cult He strongly suspected that the annual choice of a bride for the flower was merely a cover for the obscenities and lewdness that he knew existed in the Inner Grove, deep in the fastness of the jungle where only once or twice a year the common people could come. Even then they might not enter the holy of holles. That was kept sacred to the high priest—Jonthra his predecessors and successors. When the word had come to him on his graduation night at Howard that his own childhood sweetheart, whom he had taught much of the language and customs of his new world, was this yet's choice, he lost no time in enliling the help of his friend, John Northington, in what he meant to be the rescue of the girl he loved. And John Northington, who loved adventure as he loved a good fight, was nothing loathe. He hailed the chance as a Godsent opportunity. So, posing as a scientist, he had come to the last lap of the dangerous journey with Ramon only to find that the final and most dangerous bit must be undertaken alone. Priest and ruler, though Ramon was, his people began to suspect him when they found that he would have nothing to do with the new bride chosen for him, nor would he exclude his stranger friend from the sacred councils. As John Northington and the girl gazed, a sudden low moaning sound was wafted to them from across the water. They exchanged startled glances. The sound grew and swelled in volume until it was like the moaning of many winds. The sudden thump, thump, thump, thump, thump of drums beat into it. A keening wall cut across the welter of sounds like the sweeping stroke of a sharp knife; another, and another—pandemonium was loosed. Damon In Danger "Madre de Dio!" the girl's voice sounded and her upper spiral of snow clattered among the ring of trees where the on the cry, the girl fling aside the altar cloth and leapt forward. With the quickness of light, John Northward hand shot out and gripped her. "Ramon mi! Ranon mi! Milo!" by the man's superior strength Dotted the words in the ring of its supervised hand around in the slime at the edge of the river toward which the girl's leap would have carved her. A great crocodile from where he had waited. Gertil Leigh Northumberland wrapped the falter girl cloth around the girl's hand, and she was scarcifying your own life, my dear, he gravely. "You grit him to the衬衬, the terror, so you do not hear it. They hail discover that he try to take me down, and I will be scarcified of Bridle Blooming and it is the murder death. The dreams tell me the souls from before the river suddenly broke into a stormen island. The girl dropped herself.ily. The girl fell down from the old of the evil one from the village" "as of one flower with hope. For a long moment, John Northumberland stood in silent sympathy above her body back and forth, meaning. The notes beyond frown fainter died. The Dangerous Trail "Well—we will have to get out of the hall." There was the finality of the decision. "We have accepted defeat, in the man's voice. Do you think there is any danger of the attack?" He directed the question to the girl. "There is always danger in these forest but there is a trail here by the river. She paused. "Northington stood on the edge, sweeping the vicinity carefully with his keen brown eyes. His survey completed, he drew himself erect as all. Right senoria, we are going to get out of the forest, stretched out his hand, but the girl was already on her feet. We cut out the faint trail just within the line of trees that followed the river bank. "We've got to find some way to navigate. Northington spoke over his hand as he half turned to scan the slaughter. An audible rhythmic splashing came faintly to his ears. The girl behind wrapped in her sorrow heard nothing." The sounds came nearer. bonded came nearer. Nesting stepped clear of the shielding knot of the wall, which opened onto a crest-shaped bit of black muddy beech. Silent Enemies Watching for possible crocodiles the mobileson half-sunken in the black jacket immediately the mose of a rude pickup in grey green-hooded cloak, unseen in grey clear of the bend, into open light.

C.—(ANP)—In a very pointed and well stated argument, written for the Associated Negro Press, Nannie H. Burroughs, well known leader of women and Baptist school head, flays Negro leadership for its apathy in the present unemployment crisis. Miss Burroughs says in part: What on earth is the matter with Negro organizations—church, fraternal, welfare and educational—national and state—that they are so important in the present economic crisis and industrial depression. The people are out of work; they are hungry; they are indulging in all kinds of vice; they are like sheep without a shepherd. Where are the leaders? What are they thinking and what are they doing? Are they hibernating until the next convention season? Are they going to sit around all winter and depend on charity to feed the people and then come out in the summer time all regaled to lead the people (to conventional) The leaders have not united to do what they can do for the people. They could assemble and decide to keep one fact before the American people. The fact of the moral and social injustice and danger of a permanent boycott against Negro labor. Perced and confirmed illness and a moral milestone about the neck of the nation. Illness will do as much injury to American ideals as it will do to Negro progress. This fact has not been put before the nation over against its programs of elimination, boycott or discrimination in Negro employment. Do the Negro leaders know the plight of the masses? Have they gone through the communities to see the havoc that is being wrought by Illness? The homes of the masses are packed with idle men who are resorting to every kind of vice to fill up their idle hours and satiate their lower passions. "They eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence; they sleep not except they have done mischief." Under such conditions every virtue in the Negro home is in danger of destruction. If this demoralizing situation keeps up the hearts of the people will canker, children will be smitten by ignorance, poverty and crime, and the homes of the masses will become rows of pest houses. No race can live in enforced illness without succumbing to the vile, lustful, imbruting, all-destroying power of it. What can the leaders do about it? They can do a great deal about it if Don't keep on on suffering from the "blood" that has taken hold in the brain. Have the "blood" go out continue to lose weight while you appear to be down.

Not in the case of the passionate, challenging, courageous appeals for economic justice. This has not been done. The leaders have not been able to persuade the public not, therefore, used their first trouble. Even God would use them in the time of trouble. It is it that it is hardly reasonable to expect white employers to give these Americans what they need to succeed. The unemployment affects by the unemployment alters the case. It is unfair, unwise and an- American, but they are not. They are not anything to think about. White America not really ready to take the trade condition into account. The women's organizations, fraternal organizations, welfare groups have been working to help women heart, to give employment, to actualize their potential, to not do anything that they can to help themselves. The leaders are either women or men, they are expecting to trail along and they are expecting to follow them. They will make happen. For instance, Nine-gro women who sew—many of them are new to sewing—will not find any thing to do. They belong to a half dozen fraternal organizations buy thousands of dollars worth of regalia, Negro fraternal organizations could pool their interests, open a fund to help women work to work, make their own uniform and paraguas and give employment. They and thereby kill two birds with one. It is a great business opportunity. Furthermore, Negro women can help in this situation by organizing a movement to induce men to clean up their own homes and yards while they are out of employment. Since men can not find any work to do, the women should assign them the task of cleaning up the homes, yards and communities. It would give the men the necessary exercise to keep them from getting too lazy to work and would also transform neglected yards—back and front—make a new name for the race and create a wholesome and clean atmosphere in which children can live. thousands and thousands of other women and girls.

J. Rowe, Negro county agent, makes the following interesting report on terracing work among the members of his history in various occurrences. Realizing that the incomes of the sixteen hundred Negro farmers in the state were dependent on the fertility and consequent productivity of the soil they land, to maintain the farm lands that have been depleted and robbed of their resources, was the right of the communities. During the past week 300 acres of land and was put under tender for the sale of the land, with the aid of a tractor and road grader, simple drags and home made tools. the demonstrations reached the following communities: Fairfield, Lotts Farm, Baggett Farm, worked in Baggett farm worked by Billie Stratford; Post Oak, farm of Billie Rannone; Gibon Chapel, farm of Sip Kiely; Simsburg; John's Farm; and John Diggs. Two of these jobs were run by the farmers under the supervision of the other farmers. The number now that the other communities levels and grades are being encouraged to do so because all the calls for two weeks from this date all the time is taken by communities which have the farmers are working together. The farmers are working together that would be required to employ help and giving each other day instead. Should the weather remain favorable for a week or two, a large amount of the terracing will be out of the way before the winter rain DEMONSTRATOR BECOMES FARM OWNER SENSIBLE! SAFE! SURE!

WALLER Canning and food saving was in progress at the Evan Springs community club, colored, on Tuesday, and a demonstration agent, conducted the process for the canning of a beef for J. W. Strucca, who had a beef that produced the following: 14 pounds, sold 40 pounds raw. Then he be put up 57 3-pound cans and 81 2-pound cans, making a total of 88 pounds. These 3-pound cans at 35 cents each would bring $18.98, and the 2-pound cans at $17.98, which would make the canned product valued at $89.70. The 40 pounds at 12 cents a pound would be $8, making a total income of $17.70. The 20 pounds of food saving of $8.38 was realized. Cooperation with the home demonstration agent means a great food savings. There have been 1200 or 1200 can of food saved through Mrs. Strucca's demonstrations in this county.

LOUISIANA RED CROSS WARNS OF WHITE FAKER Monroe, La.—(ANP)—Residents of northeast Louisiana are warned by local Red Cross officials to be on the lookout for a white man whose racket is to collect money from Negroes with the promise that the Red Cross will supply them with food and clothing during the winter months. This man, according to Miss June Lonas, field representative of the Red Cross, has already swindled several Negroes in Concordia parish and may be headed toward the Monroe area. According to a telegram received by Miss Lonas, the authorities at Vidalia are hot on the trail of the alleged swindler and he may be taken into custody shortly. He was given as M. R. Taylor, represented himself as a Red Cross worker, and obtained money from colored people by promising them that the Red Cross would mail them boxes containing clothing, food and other necessities. About a year ago, Miss Lonas said, a man believed to have been Taylor, operated in this section with the same scheme. An investigation of his activities revealed, she asserted, that he was connected with a farm magazine published in a Midwestern city. BOYS RUSHED TO PRISON TO AXO, LYNCHING Raleigh, N.

This year's honor team has been selected after consultation with coach John Hancock, and after a season during which the writer perennially new team in action possesses the highest personal responsibility, however, for the entire selection. In my opinion the best team in the nation sends the kind of team all high school coaches dream of, but never get. Wheatsley lost to Yates but upset Wheatsley in the final. Wheatsley holds an edge, but still has Washington to cope with. Washington lost to Yates championship hopes. All in all these three teams seem to be in the same position, not strange to find that Yates placed four men on the first team and four on the second. That Wheatsley placed four men on the first team and four on the second, making Washington placed three men on the first team and four on the second, making selection of everyone for the mythical team, though all the other players were just about as unitedly The team averages 5 feet 8 inches to seem to be a weakness in the backfield, and the backfield averages 150 pounds, while the backfield averages 170 pounds. At first glance this may seem to be a weakness in the backfield, leaves no such opinion. Speed, alertness, perfect perfection are found in the line, finding a way to fast charge backs, would find a way to fast charge backs, a matter of fact the lines took the play entirely away from the backs and the best of those same linebacks. Picking a team, is a simple easy task, but finding four tackles and four ends was another thing. Tackles while ends were more or less less, while ends were more or less less, two constant ending or tackles. No attempt will be made to prate on this All-Team City, it is as the city affords and that is sufficient. Ends: Wesley—one of the best men to on the team as good ends were no scarcity.

These interested in football will be in our state will welcome the staging display of athletic advance The selection of the teams for the grand fiasco is not to be considered a set-up for either side nor just a mere gathering of students from the schools involved. There is going to be some red-hot football on the griddle in West End Park, when the snappy warriors of Little London reel off their attack in their effort to romp away from South Texas with the laurels of the day. The Crimson Tide, under Brashear's tutelage has been going strong all season; having swamped the highly-touted Coriscana aggregation who were going into their third year without a single defeat. This fact alone is sufficient recommendation for any high school squad of the Lone Star State. Further evidence that the Dallasites are confident of loading the bacon on for their return trip is reflected in the large amount of interest being manifested. The Dallas Gazette informs us that a special excursion is being run for the convenience of the large crowd of rooters coming to cheer their gridsters on to victory. The pep squad, the brass band of the school, and a large crowd of confident rooters will board the train leaving the city on Friday night to arrive in Houston Saturday morning over the Southern Pacific. The Dallasites have the best threat in their history this year, referring to their squad as "the Pride of Dallas."

C.—A bloked kick that bounded beyond the end zone for a safety early in the third quarter provided the margin by which Howard defeated Lincoln, 2-0, in the annual Thanksgiving classic here at the Griffith stadium before a crowd of 20,000 shivering fans. Victory in this game, over their traditional rivals, furnished a glorious finish to a season of ups and downs for the Howard team. With four wins, three losses by close scores, and one tie, the Bisons demonstrated the soundness of President Modecal W. Johnson's idea, that a creditable showing could be made by a team gathered together on a strictly amateur basis, without free room and board or other special inducements. MOREHOUSE EKES OUT 3 TO 0 WIN OVER ALABAMA (By J. B. Sims) Montgomery, Ala.—The Hornet football eleven of the Alabama State Teachers College exhibited dangerous spurs of potential power here today in their Turkey Day contest with a very strong Morehouse aggregation, but the Teachers had to be content with a 3-0 defeat. The game was played on Paterson Field and particular sentiment was attached to the affair in that it was perhaps the last to be played on that field, as the Teachers are planning a brand new stadium for the next school year. the margin of the Mercurious vicinity on a field goal that came Georgiams had failed to take advantage of the unfair affair. Murray tried a pass in his own territory by Jones, who has been the position for the TWINS. The Hornets massed however and each time the ball fell back as though they had hit a stone wall. On the fourth down of the game, the Hornets had a beautiful field goal from placement, that was to serve throughout ARKANSAS AND BAPTIST COLLEGE TO LIST (BY F. B.

WILEY DEFEATS BISHOP,16TO0 TO SEIZE FLAG BY ANDY Marshall--For the fourth successive champions of the Texas Conference as a result of a 16-0 victory over the Houston team, Predicted to lose by an overblowing margin, the Bishop eleven battled the Texans, and the most bitterly fought games of the year. usually, Coach Long started his seconds in the backfield, but they could do little with the fighting Bap- ter.

PRAIRIE VIEW IN 13 TO 0 DEFEAT OVER SOUTHERN By ROBY W. HILLIARD Prairie View.—In one of the most thrilling games seen in these parts, Coach Sam Taylor's Prairie View Panthers handed Coach Brice Taylor's Southern University griders a timely drubbing to the tune of 18-0. This was Southern's first defeat of the year and their second defeat in two years. They played Wiley to a 6-0 game earlier in the season. C. Purnell held his reputation. The little 140-pounder gained through the Panther line for all of his team's gains by that route. Spragner played tackle to perfection, breaking through on several plays to stop the Panthers carrier in his tracks. The line stood the Panthers' rushes on 4 occasions when they (Panthers) had worked the ball to within the 8-yard line. The Panther machine worked in foreign soil slightly more than 45 minutes and their goal was not threatened by the opponents during the entire game. Love, Mallory, Nell, Lums, S. Williams, Roberts, Mason, M. Sanders, C. Thomas and Coas shared the honors of the day for the Panthers. The first half furnished the fan quite a bit of excitement as the Panthers attempted to score three different times but were taken care of when the Southern line tightened two of the times and a pass from the Panther ace, Love, to "Iddy" Dalton, who was in the end zone, was high by inches. Love bested Hickman during the half for the pounding. The half ended 0-0 with the first down. Both teams returned to the field each sprint to the right. The receiver received the kickoff and led by Mallory worked the ball deep in the pocket, went over the fence, turned procedured to try the Panther line to no avail. The ball came in a sensational return of 38 yards. This placed the ball in midfield. A pass, a run, a touchdown, a quarter ended. The ball returned to Mallory. Love gained 8 yards through center. On the next play Roberts stepped off the ball and slid five Southerners, for the first seven. Sellona as usual, added the ball. The Louisianaiens resorted to the air, Safford intercepted one and returned to the air, and kicked. With six seconds to play Parnell跑得 a long pass which was returned to the center, who ran 25 yards for a touchdown. The try for point was ended, and Prairie View 13, Southern 0.

WHEATLEY CATS UPSET EAGLES TO TUNE OF 7-6 In Buffalo Stadium. Thanksgiving Day, Washington put up the white flag of honest surrender as Wheatley downed them 7-6. "What a whale of a difference a little 'ole' point makes." Ask Washington. Wheatley started the game with all vim and determination to win. They had been blessed, for the weather that was played for was tailor made to suit their order and they took advantage of this gift. Every one was expecting an serial attack from Wheatley and the Eagles had their wings gressed to down every one that was thrown, but the Wildcats fooled them and used all of their force on the ground where the Eagles could not fly. With the terrific line plunges of Red Lewis and the fake bucks of Hubbard the line of Washington took the wholly appearance of a little boys pants. The first quarter ended without any serious positions gained by either teams, but the Eagles realized that the Wildcats had blood in their eyes which is more than they had expected. The second quarter was young, Jeff Green was snatching Eagle feathers at every play; Lester was plucking their claws; Washington's line gave away on a kick formation and through it ran the mighty Red Lewis, blocked the kick and McGruder recovered the oval on the 20-yard line from whence he surrived to a touchdown. The Wildcats praced and the Eagles screamed to see their nest upturned. All was quiet and from the foot of Carroll the ball went sailing through the goal post and over the bar for a perfect kick and the extra point. Making the score 7 tail feathers to no hairs. The second quarter offered no more thrills and the brief fifteen minutes was taken by Washington's pep squad and Bugle Corps who showed the spectators some of their skill in spelling and writing. After both coaches had talked the situation over with the boys, the battle was started again. The Eagles took to the air. Passes were used often, some of them complete; and a kick which drove the Wildcats back to their five-yard line. Armstrong was called back to make the kick out of this very bad position. The ball was snapped but Armstrong did not kick, instead he went sailing around right end for a mean fifty yards. The Eagles were baffled and the Wildcats strutted with pride from their latest achievement. Another pass by the Eagles, a long pretty one from the hands of Porter which fell in the waiting arms of Wesley who crossed the white line for a touchdown. And I mean that started something. They say Porter is always good for that three yards through the line for the extra point, that is, if Jeff Green is dead. Well we do not know about that, but a pass was tried instead, which was incomplete, making the score 7-6 in favor of Wheatley. Wheatley must have wanted more with a point lead for they still have those Eagles a fit. Line plunging gave those Eagles a fit. Line plunging around back end hacked the Eagles to their five-yard line. But everything went wrong when a long wait before the Wildcats had the ball back in the same position and were golfer for another touchdown took the Eagles out of their misery. The crying like a baby that had lost bottle for the Wildcats taking Eagle game is not forgotten as the "drugstore cowboy" start it now.

C.—(ANP)—The bells of fame rang loudly here this week as three tiny lads, Stephen James and Cornelius Clarke, aged 0, 8 and 9 respectively, held a large audience of white and colored hearers spell-bound when they sang two melodious spirituals on the Carolina Theatre stage, as a part of Harry Carroll's mappy "Revue," and stopped the show, taking four bows before they finally were able to retire. As a result of their excellent performance, the three lads have been offered a contract at something like $100 per week, each, to appear with the Revue, which is making its appearance at the Palace Theatre, in New York City Saturday night. AVERT TEXAS LYNCHING Arlington.—(ANP)—A lynching was averted today when officers rushed Sam Lauder, slayer of Policeman James E. Johnson, white, to the county jail at Fort Worth for safe-keeping. More than 100 armed men were hunting for Lauder, threatening openly to lynch him, when he surrendered to a pose composed almost exclusively of officers. Arlington is located midway between Dallas and Fort Worth. --- Haiti Elects New President Who Places Country First WARNING Know what you are taking to relieve that pain, cold, headache, sore throat.

By FELIX HERAUX (For The Associated Negro Press) Port au Prince, Haiti—Yesterday the 18th, at 3 p. m., Stenio Vincent was elected president of Haiti by a vote of 30 to 19 for Seymour Pradel. The act was accomplished on the fourth round of balloting and caused a furor in the streets. Everything went off in orderly fashion and there was no trouble at all—remember that when you read the reports of it in the papers. There were 50 ballots. A majority of 26 votes was needed to win. At the start of the balloting Charles Zamor withdrew his candidacy, followed by two others and then Price, who withdrew after the third round. After all the ballots had been cast into the box two senators were chosen to count them to make sure there were fifty. Upon the completion of that business, two more senators were chosen to read them off, one reading the name on the ballot and then passing it to the other who also read it aloud. At the end of the first round the count was: Vincent 15, Pradel 12, Mars 11. At the end of the second round it was: Vincent 21, Pradel 12, Mars 11. The third round saw Mars out of it, leaving but Vincent and Pradel. When the former had 28 votes to Pradel's 14, the crowd got excited and drowned out the last name called, taking it for granted that it was Vincent. It was Pradel, however, and so there was another round necessary. This was a walk over for Vincent. After the election result was announced, the usual inuall of guns. The streets were packed with people, cheering and shouting. It was to be a very popular one. Vincent侵入 the Chambers, and sent a committee to inform Roy that he was coming to the town. Roy was braced each other after the last vote. There had been strained feelings between Roy and the police. Before the palace the throng was immense. The palace was to be bathed in and change colors At 5 p. m., he came down and entered the palace, where he saw the crowds of the chief Roy met him on the steps and they rejoined him. They were on the band and gardens parading in the palace for a few minutes, then Roy and Vincent both left for Petionville and were heard in this town. Even the officers of the palace waved their mats One could cite all kinds of reasons for the downfall of Pradel, who spent plenty of money in this race—some say it amounted to $80,000. But the main thing against him, or rather the two main things, were these: he said that he was for frank and loyal cooperation with the United States and the other obstacle was the fact that he had as henchman Jolibois. One can cooperate, well enough, but Haiti has had too much of that with Borno, who was inclined to accede to every wish of Washington without any argument or thought—he should have been like that for Washington put him in the palace and kept him there for eight long years. But to be a good president in the eyes of the Haitians is to cooperate, yes, but also to give the interests of Haiti first place, to defend her future welfare against exploitation, to assure her of an equal right among all nations. Pradel was not the man for the job. He was too long in the pay of the National City Bank. His record is not too clear and then he has never proved conclusively that he is really a Haitian. THE HOUSTON INFORMER, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1930. On the other hand, Vincent has a past of which no one can say aught but good. He was the only Haitian to object against the closing of the chamber in 1915 and when he saw that he could not prevail against armed Marines he said he would be damned if he would agree to any proposition of the invader and he walked out with his head up. He has been minister at Paris, Berlin and Le Haye, mayor of this city during which time he inaugurated the idea of having yearly expositions on the first of each May, a thing that has not been seen since he left the Commune except for those half-hearted affairs at Damien. He is a bachelor, and has a sister in Chicago. For the duration of Horno's reign Vincent lived in seclusion in Petionville, without a penny, living on what friends supplied him and the income from his small newspaper. Mark this—in three months or less, M. Jolibois will be kicked out of his position as deputy. The fool attempted to read his telegrams of congratulations in the chambers and was called to order by Deputy Belizaire who said that no one was interested in them and that the interests of Haiti were not dependent upon them. Imagine that! The press news came out this morning saying that Stenio Vincent, opponent of the Occupation, had been elected to the presidency of Haiti. That, probably, came from the Jew Haas, of a Chicago paper, a man who takes the situation here as a joke and thinks that all Haitians are fools. It is a cinch that Vincent is not raving over the Occupation but he has never said a thing yet as to what his idea is on that score. Dana Munro, the new American minister, arrived on the 16th and presented his letters to Roy at once. Haiti is watching him now to see what his ideas are like regarding the country. Let us hope that he is not prejudiced, that he will be fair and honest in his relations with the people. He will go so much farther if he is. One thing good about him is the fact that he is not a soldier—no military man can have the same broad outlook on things political or diplomatic that a civilian can have, and that is so MOVIE COMBINE FOR NEGROES PLANNED Philadelphia, Pa.—(ANP)—What promises to be a step in the direction of "big things" is the recent announcement by D. M. Mobley, 1505 N. 22nd Street, a well-known real estate broker, that he has joined with four men who are willing to invest one million dollars in a moving picture company for which the actors will be principally Negroes. A suitable name for the company has not as yet been found, and a prize is to be awarded for one. The best Negro talent is also being selected. The pictures are to be made by Philadelphia Negroes, and the first picture will be "Can a Married Man Love his Wife and Sweetheart at the Same Time?"

"Such a course on the part of the Negro would eventually lead to a lead in the war. But a course would also certainly give the Negro a chance of 'black dominance.' I am old cry of 'black dominance.' I am tired. It is too high a compliment to the power and ability of the Negro to lead the war. It is the power and dominance of the South, if given the right of the battle, would dominate the two sides." Editor Backs Nullification The address has created a seminal in the white South and has drawn a white Raleigh Twins entitled "Some White Raleigh Twins at Show's Founders Meeting." In the editorial the editor frankly criticized the constitution for being nullified and demands that Negroes accept and participate in part: "People of the kidney of this speech, who are to be the desirable development of the South, diverged from much masters of liquor and religion, and founded on it, is over, it must be achieved by white men. They must understand that the Amendments to the constitution, so far as they affect the suffrage, have been nullified. They must accept a modus negro in politics as a force."

He taught a class of old temples in the school, got the pupil and their parents to turn them in, taught them how to teach teaching of trades; got the pupila to use the grounds for flower and vegetation in a community center transforming the entire neighborhood.

Therefore, their present attitude was because they were unwilling to move forward with the defense of the enemy, and four points emerge in this defense: 1.

INTELLIGENCE AND INTEGRITY MAKE MEN AND RACES GREAT HOUSTON, TEXAS, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1930 TEAMWORK All round and about us we can see the results of teamwork. From the football field to the factory and from there to civil life, there is abundant proof that the ability to work together for a common and is the most desirable of all procedures. That Negroes are the most capable of working together, as imperfect as they may be, are proof of their increasing ability to work as units for the accomplishment of a purpose which the majority of them have conceived as worthwhile. But only the beginning is evident. The growth along this line must be accompanied by the development of unity for the mutual good in such institutions as our fraternal orders, which, by the way, represent the utmost which we in Texas have achieved along cooperative lines, but the efforts in this direction must spread to civic and social efforts which have as their purpose the perpetuation of the increasing factor to the formation of American life in all its phases. Houston, one of the finest places in America for the work of our people and for their advancement, must begin more definitely to develop its cooperative sense, not only as far as the cooperation of its groups with each other is concerned, but within the group as a whole. This is the reason that the ingress of its members to work together. The present unemployment situation, the work of the Negro Democratic Club and its allied agencies in the payment of Poll Tax, the work of the Y. M. C. A. and all other social and civil agencies, all of these must soon be the greatest of increased ability of all to work together for the common good. The Informer believes that experiment along these lines will soon result in general acknowledgment that teamwork pays. And when it is found to pay along civic and social lines, it should not be ignored. The teamwork that we produce lines will begin to manifest itself. We must PRODUCE MORE BIG MEN. ALL RACES AND NATIONS WHICH HAVE LEFT THEIR MARK FOR GOOD ON THE SURFACE OF THE GREATEST NUMBER OF GREAT MEN PRODUCED THE GREATEST NUMBER OF GREAT MEN men financially, morally, socially and philanthropically great. Negro will be no exception to that general rule. THE GREATER THE NUMBER OF GREAT MEN THE GREATER THE SERVING which cannot be expected. It is fundamental. Teamwork produces leaders and results. All teams have leaders which they respect and with whom they cooperate. Usually leaders make themselves by reason of their superior ability and skill and time is the determining factor in the term of their leadership. That is why the ability to get things done, the lack of idea that one brain is sufficient for the community, the willingness to do right, honesty, integrity, all of these characteristics must be possessed, not by the team who help in the office. And TEAMWORK IS MOST important of THESE CHARACTERISTICS ARE NOT TO BE FOUND IN A WORKING* MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE. It is therefore very true that a history of the accomplishment of any group is essential to the success of the group possessed the requisites for success. First checking up along these lines is profitable for individuals as well as civic groups. OPPORTUNITIES FOR TEACHERS There can be no doubt but that those who stand in the presence of the developing mind from day to day have an opportunity for learning, probably more than any of the other teachers, the power to do good or ill; to fashion minds and shape them in constructive or in other ways. And it is for that reason that the Infermer feels that all of the things possible for an association of the mind are available to the Infermer and worked toward by all of those who lay claim to progressiveness. Recently it is this as it pertains to the Negro teacher and to the associations of which they were a reference to the strong or weak points noted in the meeting just past. The Infermer takes occasion to set forth some of the general objectives which should challenge the attention of those who are interested and its statements are made out of a realization of some of the spirit of the Negro people and need without and in future, in future time, it cannot hold its place or make progress. There must be, first of all, a realization on the younger generation that they must unite for their own good, and that they must know this by those who are fearful of the future and doubtful of their own abilities to achieve even the most ordinary things. The young must learn that facts are the bases on which all things can be learned; they cannot be taught this by those who have not gathered facts for themselves but have not gathered with a view to discovering and profiting by the truth. The young must learn to be intelligently aggressive. They cannot be taught this by those who have not felt that they, as a special class or group, have the responsibility of interpreting the needs of their peers. They must be taught to do things that the young must be inspired to do greater things as time goes on. They cannot be taught this by those who have no faith in their own ability to do greater things with each succeeding year. Of those are general statements which may or may not be agreed with by those who compose the association of teachers. But it is certainly true that the youth of our race needs expert leadership. A group of those who possess the qualities of leaders, prove itself by its career of improvement from time to time. The Negro teachers of Texas in their association have a glorious record of success. They are the hope that there is vision and real leadership enough among them to bring some of the possibilities into reality. THE AMENDMENTS AND NULLIFICATION Press reports say that the United States Supreme Court, in the Democratic primary case which came up from Arkansas, has held that the party may say who can vote in primaries. That decision was the signal for much comment from leading Southern daily papers. Among them as the Houston Chronicle which published the report, the New York Times in the South will never participate in the political affairs of white people so long as the white people as a group seriously object to that participation. No kind of law can make it otherwise. It says further: "In case the Supreme Court had held that the party would select, and therefore would elect, a electoral machine of the South, and indeed have given Negroes entrance to that primary. But just as surely as this was done, the white people of most Southern states would have formed their private associations to determine among themselves just who they would support in those primaries, and so would be allowed to participate." In short, as long as the whites of the South constitute a group that seriously objects to the participation of Negroes in its political affairs there will be no such participation. It seems that the leaders of the Negroes would have seen this; would have seen the opportunity to participate; and will help action would only set up greater opposition to them, an opposition which could be curbed in no way by laws. "The Negroes' one chance of having a voice in public affairs—at least in states where the majority of the people are white—will be limited. If they are not willing to any group distinctly marked off from the majority just as it applies to the Negroes in the South. "On this point most of the Negro leadership is sadly in error, and the whites of the North who seek to speak for them are still more in error. Force, legal or otherwise, can only harm the Negroes." In fact he will never be materially helped in any other way." In the major contention which this daily raises (namely, that white America will do as it pleases, irrespective of law), The Informer heartily agrees. In fact, that same sentiment which we have been nullified by the white South and will remain nullified by the black South and the poor South must understand that the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution, so far as they affect the suffrage, have been nullified by the white South and will remain nullified by the black South and the poor South that the repression which is responsible for the chaotic condition of this country in other ways today. Saloons are just as wide open in New York City now as before prohibition. All Capone and his gangsters, wherever they may be, are not allowed to enter the saloons and seek the repression of the base and the stifling of barbarians, including the police powers of the nation, to stop them. The same sentiment is responsible for the prevalence of mob murders in New York City and the complete agreement of the majority of the "good citizen" of Texas including the governor. All of these things are but by-products of the same idea. Whatever is not pleasing to those who want to live in America, and yet there is still another side to the question. Can that sort of thing go on forever and America remain a nation? Can a minority be successfully educated to be useful citizens and guaranteed the right to live and to be, in all other ways, a part of the society? Can the government be trusted to ship? Can gangsters' forever be allowed to run riot within the confines of a government which lays claims to being orderly and decent? Already it is being announced that the forces of the government are being strengthened to wipe out this gangster and that the government is condoned and the law be upheld in any of its sovereign power? Of course fot. lot if this government is to endure, it must do so with the full help and assistance of all of those who compose it. And all of the sentiments which are contrary must be finally found worthless. That will happen in the case of the gangsters who are now enduring the injustice, and finally be found the case in the matter of Negro participation in Democratic primaries. And it is for that reason that The Informer urges and will continue to urge Negroes to seek to break down the barriers which now prevent them from the exercise of their rights as citizens. 'That is why the more upright Americans of all sorts are crying out against the gangsters and mobs America will endure. Right thinking and action will prevail if the Americans are now misguided will discover the error of their mental ways. "THE DICK JONES SALE" Dick Jones is well known to almost all of the Texans who have visited Chicago in recent years. He is now the general superintendent of the South Side Department Store which is located in the heart of Negro Chicago. Recently the owners of the store have been asked to help with the marketing and they used twelve pages of newspaper advertising telling of "the Dick Jones Sale." On the day of the sale the store was crowded. Nothing in the history of the venture remotely compared with it. More than 23,000 sales were registered for the day; and the clerks had a difficult time in handling the customers. They responded to the challenge. The owners are satisfied. Dick Jones is probably the first member of his race to hold such a position in Chicago. That he is courteous, affable and altogether "on-the-job" cannot be denied. And that his people and the business are doing well now be denied in the light of the history of that sale. There should be more than a little attention paid to this experience of this store. There are other Dick Joneses in this country. There are other stores located in the heart of Negro neighborhoods where a few Dick Joneses would do much good. There is much more to learn about Dick Joneses and the store who put the "pull" of Dick Jones to the test. And there is much to be said of those who responded to the challenge. LET US SUPPORT THE CONCERT Press reports state that the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Club and the Houston Defender will sponsor a benefit program on Sunday, December 14, at 3 p. m., at the City Auditorium. A free will offering will be taken during the internship and the money given for the benefit of the Negro unemployed. This concert indicates the proper community spirit, and The Informer commends the program. Let us pack the City Auditorium on that occasion, and let us also give liberally to the unemployed. OPINIONS Cimbee's Ramblings HOUSTON LEADERS AGAIN CHALLENGEED The Informer is reliably informed that provision is being made to have the Negro Business and Laboring Men's Association suspend its work and devote all of its time and energy to the registration and placing of the unemployed of the race in such positions as may be found within the coming months. For this purpose, a budget of considerable size in being sought and it is recommended that the unemployed national men and from those in position to contribute to the work. A Certainly there will be those who will feel that there is little that they can give toward the movement. There will be those who will give toward the movement with the proposal. But it is also possible that there will be found enough who will feel their responsibility to the needy of the race to put the effort across. It is to be hoped that this is so. It is to be hoped that the unemployed among us will not look toward the effort. It will probably be true that this occasion will serve to test and prove our leadership here. And it cannot be doubted that it will discover some of us to each other who would otherwise never have the opportunity to look over his 'leaders' as never before. In this case, he will be able to discover whether that leader is all that he has claimed to be or not. He will either be found "all there" or he will be found clamish, clamish, self-centered and unworthy. And he will must depend on the support of his men must depend for their patronage will measure the extent to which they are worthy, by the extent to which they help in this movement to relieve the condition of the unfortunate in this crisis. Should this be the case. The Informer will feel that the patronage of our leaders will be the extent of our ability. This is a time in which all of us should be personally interested in the welfare of the other man. Every Negro in this city in business or in the professions has profited by the patronage of these same men and women who are not only the beneficiaries of the patronage of ourselves. The security of our leaders has been made by so these same persons. Now is the time for reciprocity. Now is the time of returning the favor. Those who do so cheerfully and gladly can expect a continuation of the patronage and an increase in the number of their patronage. In either case, the public, as usual, will be right. Let us all get behind the work of the unemployed. It is our duty were there no expectancy for the future. The extent to which Houston succeeds in this effort will be a definite and direct measure of its success. It will be a realization of the commonness of the cause of all classes of us.
