James Henderson, principal of the
Lovedale Institution, ,Soath Africa
that he has returned kone with the
intention of organiting g tim’Tar
Commission whose personnel shall
consist of natives and white “people
interested {South African problem.
For thirty )eare Dr, Henderson has
been engaged in missionary education.
H's school Is the largest in South
Africa conducted in the interest of
the native youth. After spending
seven weeks in the United $.ates,
studying at close range the eduation-
al, economic, social and {ndustrial
development of the American Negro
he has formed some highly favorable
impressions,
Tte absorb'ng passion of the Amer.
fean Negro for progress, his intense
loyalty to his country and the Amer-
ican flag, the facility with which he
speaks the English Language, his
thirst for education and bis strong
religious tendenc:es were among the
commendable characteristics to come
within the range of Dr. Henderson's
observations. .
The two things to puzzle him most
while in Amerien were: First, tho ine,
elination of white America to accord
better treatment to the foreigner than
to the Negro, although the former,
vomes to these shores as a rule purely
for selfish and mercenary reasons;|
recond, the lark of appreciation shown
for {ta leaders by members of the
Negro race,
While on his extended tour of ob-
servation Dr, Henderson visited
among other places, Tuskegee and
Hampton, slso Atlanta, favennah,
Gulfport, Miss., Calkoun, Ala., Glou-
cester County, Va., King» Mountzin,|
N. C., Rickmond, Petersburg, Wash-
ington, New York, and Boston, His
itinerary enabled him to study Negro
life in both urban and rural com-
manities.
He was first Impressed with the
great desire of Negroes to own their
own homes. Wherever he found
landowners he noted progiess, good
houses, well furnished Lomes and de-
cent, self-respecting home hfe, Ne-
grocs owning their: property alm to
send their children to schools and
colleges, it having been no uncommon!
experience for the South African
educator,to hear of three or more’
children In a family having gradu-
ed from different institutions of ;
learning, i
In the opinion-of Dr. Henderson,
the system of tency without lease
affects both white and colored pebple
and fs a very serious barrier, The
relative progrese rusde in & commun-
ity as distinguished between owner
and tenant was most noticeable in
Calhoun, Ats, Dr, Henderson was
struck with the progress made by Ne-|
groes in Glouceater, County, Vea.,"
where all but sixteen farmers own |
their own land, have good homes and:
‘are improving the soil, |

gro farmer about agriculture, his ex.,

Tuskegee and Hampton Institutes
came up to Dr, Henderson's expecta-',
tlons, Some phases of thelr work
even exceeded his expectations, He,
thinks it would be unsound for these ’
two great schools to merely turn out
common workers from thelr respec-
tive industrial departments, for the
care and thoroughness of the train-
ing fits students to go out into the
world and serve as “masters” of the
trade and not merely ordinary work-

to color, Tke Americans de:lare that
they will have thinzs oyer here as
they have them at home They want
to keep the American Negro {1 Paris
in his place. .
| The ugly stand of the Amorfeans
called for the issuance of a commun-
ique by President Poincare, calling
the attention of the prejudired Amer.
fcana to the Ideals of France and the
lack of prejudice. He announced with
considerable fairness that if the
Americans causéd any more trouble,
drastic moasures would be taken {o
correct them, s
Poincare’s action was hastened by
the protest of the French Negro
memters of the chamber of deputies
who complained about the unfair at-|
titude of the tourists,
These latter.are held to have ex-
plained that they did not care what
the French Negro did, they seldom
saw or came in contact with ons of
them, but they would not stad to

in their “place™ at home, beirg ad-
mitted to an equality with them,
‘The American Negro against whom
the tourists are complaining are mus-
icians and others who hold yood po-
sition and have considerable money.

Dr, Henderson is a Scotchman of

have marks on their bodies which they

BECAREFUL ~
IN GEORGIA.
(By The Associated Negro Press)
ATLANTA, GA., Aug. 10—An ef.
fort to check the migration of Ne-
groes and other farm laborers was
given by the authors as the reason for
the introduction of a bill in the Geor-
gia Legislature, today, which would
make it a felony for any person or
concern to solicit labor In Georgia for
other States, Punishment would be
a prison term of not less than three
years nor more than seven, *
“Passage of this bill,” one of the
authors declared;: “will result in
eberking the exodus of Negroes and
other farm Jebor of Georgia to other
states, It does not allow even licensee
labor agents to operate in the State.
The present labor situation in Geor.
gia demands drastle legislation and
this measure is one which we think
best to provide relief.”

AN. indications of a political na-
ture point to a genera) and
overwhelming assumption of the reins
of political force by THE PEOPLE
which does not argue well for the
certain successes of either of the Old
Line Parties in the next National
Campaign, An unsettled economic
condition with its depressing effects
upon the business and farming inter-
ests of tho country hae in no uncer-
tain measure served to direct the at-
tontion of the people thruout the coun-
try to things of a pol.tical nature with
the result that the pot has begun to
boul early, The Republican Party will
face onc of the greatest crisis in Its
history in the approa*hing campaign
aot only from a local and state but
‘ational point of view in the event
shat Henry Ford !s accepted as the
candidate of the Dimocratic Party or
becomes a third party candidate, Cup-
italistic Influences have been able to
ect aside the organic principles of the
Grand Old Party whale politivat in-
fluences have scrved to hold the party
from a proper assertion of its funda.
mental faith thru governmental agen
cy where in control of existing sitaa-
tions that the average Republican
Voter who tas been touched by La-
bor Conditions, Small Business Influ-
ences, Domestic or Foreign Trade Re-
lations, Taxation Probleras or as is
the case with the Negro Voter vast
problems affecting the gencral soz:al,
economic and political welfare of an
entire racial group is watching with
deep cconcern. In dealing with the
Negro the Grand Old Party departing
from the Altrulstic stand of Lacoln,
Grant, Garfield, Blaine, ond Roose-
velt has within the last decade given
many evidenres of being nothing
more than a large sponge which dur-
irg campaign periods absorbs the Ne.
ero and after a successful election has
eltowed political factors hostile to the
national interests of the racial group
to press the group from the spongo
before it has felt the heat of political
favor, This is a matter that has
quietly had the attention of culored
political forces and must have their
attention to the end tkat the race be
no longer sold by a party that faila
for some reason to make good on its
promises incurred prior to every nat~
fonal campa‘gn either by word of its
pohtical Jeaders or by their apparent *
nnd suggested attitudes, The Repub- |
lican Party must in the eye of the Ne~ |
fro Voter in no small measure assume |
responmbility for the failure of the ;
Dyer Anti Lynching Measure to bes
come a Federal Enactment, The Ne- |
yro Ex-Servive Man must regard with {
some show of concern the failure of «
tho party to s'gn the failure of the |
party head to sign a REASONABLL!
NATIONAL BONUS MEASURE. The! (
Negro Race emassed in spite of a de- {
lermined support of the Grand Old ,
Party cannot point with pride to any 4
angible benefits that have been des
‘ived by the group through support of 3
he National Tioket in the last cam-
ralgn, fe
for the average thinker who will with.
in a few months be called upon tc
give his support to the movement of
the Grand Old Party gain in ite ef.
forts to score muccess on the natlona
target of political prestige and fic.
tory. The high glory and success o!
no political party in the country Is
one-thiid as important as the success:
fal progressive movement of the Ne-
gro Race in America towards a higher
degree of eonomle freedom and re.
cognition of the full status of Amer-
fean Citizenship for Individuals of
the race in accordance with the lofty
precepts of the Federal Constitut'on,
und as a matter of fact to be fair and
square no party Is deserving of tle
united support of the race that can-
not or will not secure to the race such
freedom and recognition. The Repub.
lican Party needs to wake to the fact
that the Negro of today Is not UN-
CLE TOM of forty years back. The
Negro voter is and will demand thru
his leaders some of the tangible fruits
of political victory‘and a smaller de-
gree of pol.tical promises made in the
heat of excited campaigns, If the
Republican Party with the undivided
support of tke Negra Voter cannot
after a successful campaign thru a
party vote pass legislation to protect
the legal status of the Black Man ani
give to Fim the ordinary protection
due American Citizenship. If it can-
not secure for the H'ghly advanced
thinker and worker of the race 1
place at the national, state and local
pohtical pie counter better than mere
Janitor and police work, If it cannot
place the race in the Southland in 2
position of political safety relative
to its right to assert the common
duties of citizenship. THEN, WHAT
MATTER IF WE HAVE A HENRY
FORD for a mere change? So the
calamity which may eweep over the
country cannot be more alarming than
the depressed atmosphere that has
developed under Republican Succeas-
es concerning the general wel-
fare of the race, It is Figh time for
Republican Leaders to lenin that the
Negro Raco has ceased to be a mere
POLITICAL FOOT BALL and that
mere promises will rot get the party
over the Ford Hurdle in the coming
campaign, The result may have some
dangerous aspects but yet as an ex
periment it {a well worth while that a
party that refuses to play fair thru
its successful factors be beatcn at the
polls rather than be allowed to play
with the sincerity and faithful sup-
port of a loyal racial gioup. Sle Ne~
gro in the coming campaign must
think and vote for the kext Interest
of tke race whether it means FORD, |
