In discussing this matter, Mr. Reed said: “I have been highly gratified at the interest taken by the public in these problems. I cannot expect, of course, the support of great railway systems, the utilty interests, and other powerful corporations. These are the interests which opposed me so bitterly four years ago. That they will continue their opposition, I have no doubt, but despite the opposition, I expect to be nominated for Gover- nor in the primary next Tuesday, for I beheve that the people of Kansas want a Governor who {s responsible to the masses of the people.” M.

JORDAN, Historian, NEGRO PHYSICIAN APPOINTED TO STAFF OF THE CLEVELAND CITY HOSPITAL NEW YORK, July 27—For the first time, a Negro has been appoint- ed to the staff of the Cleveland City Hospital, according to a letter just received by the National Office of tle N. A. A.C. P.. from Charles W, White, President of the Cleveland Branch of the Association. Dr, Jno. H. McMorries, accordmg to Mr, White, on gay 20th was appointed to the Surgical Out-Patent Staff of the hosmtal, this action coming as the result of several years of agita- tion by colored citizens of Cleveland both for such appointments and against the establishment of a we. gated hospital for Negroes. The success thus far gained in the Ohio city is the second victory towards admission of qualified Negro physi- cians, surgeons, specielists and nurses to the staff of municipal hospitals in metropolitan areas. Some years ago after many years of agitation and effort Negro medical men and nurses were appointed to the staff of Harlem Hospital, one of the New New York City hospitals, and have served with notable success. Mr, Whites letter on the victory in Cleveland states: : “You will be S, glad to know that on July 20th, Dr, John H, Mc- Morries was appointed to the surgl- cal Out-Patient Staff of Cleveland City Hospital and is the culmination of several years’ effort on the part of groups and individuals to open {'e door of opportunity there. ‘the ef- fort became more intensified and more intelligently directed last fall and led tothe appointment by the City Manager of a Commission head- ed by the Director of Public Welfare, which visited some twelve or moe cities with a view to learning what had been done elsewhere with refer- ence to admitting Negro physi- cians, internes and nurses on to hos- ital staffs on a party with whites. De, MeRlerries wae the only colored member of that Commission, His appointment carries out the one fa- vorable recommendation of that Commission. “We are not content that the mat- ter rest here. The Cleveland Branch recently took steps to bring out a unification of effort on the part of the several groups and individuals, working to that end and it is the purpose of this now united group to press on until at least one other. physician ig made a member of the staff and until Negro internes and pUraes Are admitted to the City Hos- pital. “Dr, McMorries is a graduate of Howard University in liberal arts and niedicine and took his internship at Freedmen’s Hospital. He has been a practicing physician since 1916 and is well thought of both by his fellow physicians and the local public generally. “It is worth mentioning that Lake- side Hospital, a private institution, furnished ample precedent for this yelated concession on the part of the sity officials, The University Hospi- tals, of which Lakeside is a part, has four Negro physicians on their staff, Dr, Charles H. Garvin has been on the Out-Patient Staff of Lakeside Hospital for the past eight, years, Dr, Armen Evans is assigned to the Well-Baby Dispensary, connected with the Babies Hospital, Dr, Leon Evans is assigned to the tuberculosis lispensary at the Central Bath House, Dr. Stanley Brown, a young hysician, Js on the staff at Lakeside, nf Brown gradusted from Westen Reserve University Medical School about three years ago with highest honors, and he fs a Cleveland pro- juct, Yet he was compelled to wrve nis Internship at Freedmen’s Hospi- al.

Paul and Barnabas Preaching at Iconium (vv 1-7) 1. Their manner of preaching (vv 1) This is suggested by the little word "so" in verse 1. They so spake that a great multitude believed They were true preachers Only that which brings conviction of sin and induces decisions for Christ can be truly said to be preaching in the Biblical sense. 2. Their attitude towards opposition (vv 3). This is suggested by the word "therefore." "Long time therefore they tarried." The opposition did not prevent their preaching but included them to continue preaching Christian workers should learn not to give up work because of opposition. 3. The Lord accompanied their preaching with miracles (v. 3). Since the opposition was so fierce, the Lord granted help which was needed. 4. The effect of their preaching (v. 4) The multitude of the city was divided. Where man faithfully preach the gospel there will be division. Such division comes frequently in the home just as Christ predicted. 5. Paul and Barnabas assaulted (v. 57). The Jews and the Gentiles united in planning this assault Being appalled of this plot, Paul and Barnabas died to Lystra and Derbe, where they preached the gospel II. An Attempt to Worship Paul and Barnabas as Gods (vv 818). I. The occasion (vv 810). It was the healing of the lame man God's gracious power shown in healing this lame man occasioned a new difficulty. The man was a confirmed cripple. He had never walked On hearing Paul preach faith was born in his heart (Rom 10:17) When Paul perceived that the cripple trusted Christ, with a loud voice that all could hear he bade the man to stand upright. The cure was instantaneous for he leaped up and walked (vv 10). 2. The method (vv 112). They called Barnabas Jupiter, and Paul Mercurius because he was the chief speaker. The priest of Jupiter brought oven and garlands ready to offer sacrifice unto those men (v 13). 3. Their efforts frustrated (vv 14 18). This foolish act was supply averred by the fact of the apostles as exhibited in the address of the occasion. (1) They denied that they were all vine beings and declared against the worship of men of like passions with themselves. What awful folly to worship such beings when the infinite God, who created all things and is above all, spreading out life tened cent hands in blessing upon all, is seeking true worshipers! (2) They directed them to turn away from these vain things unto the living God who made heaven and earth, and has left witness of Him self in that He has always done good giving rain and fruitful season, filling their hearts with gladness. (3) The Stoning of Paul (vv 19-22). Wicked Jews from Antioch andIconium pursued Paul with relentless hate to this place where they affirmed up the very people who were willing to worship the apostles a little while before. This hatred took form in the stoning of Paul and dragging him out of the city for dead. These things are easy to talk about, but how awful they must be to experience. God raised him up, and with undaunted courage he pressed on with his duties as a missionary, bearing the good tidings to the lost. The church today needs men with such zeal and courage, and such a passion for the souls of lost men that they will do as Paul did. IV. The Organization of Churches in the Field (rv. 23-29) Emangelization with Foul did not mean a hasty and superficial preaching of the gospel, but the establishment of a permanent work. Elders were appointed in every church. The work of the missionary is not done until self governing and self propagating churches are established on the field. Fly to Him If it be true that God is not only willing to befriend us, but is spoken of us touched with sympathy for our miseries, so as to be all the kinder to us the more we are miserable, what folly were it not to fly to him without delay.—John Calvin. A Verse From the Bible Let nothing be done through strife or valgory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem the other better than themselves.—Philippians 2:3.

CARD OF THANKS. WASHINGTON CO., REGISTER (The Newspaper of Washington County.) WASHINGTON, KANSAS, July 1928—Just a last brief before the primary to tell you of my appreciation for the fine support I have had from the newspaper internship in my campaign for State Printer. I have a big bunch of clippings from you boys and feel sure there are a lot I did not get. I surely do thank you and hope I can return the favor some time. I believe I have better than an even chance to win the nomination next week. I regret that I did not get to visit more of our offices, but the state is too big. I have been given much encouragement every place I have been and believe the outlook is good. If you want to make a last brief mention of my candidacy it will help and I hope you will remind your friends to vote for me and do so yourself. If I win it will be the newspa- loys that put it over.

Lawrence Phone M. 3207 N.A.A.C.P,TO FIGHT NEWEST ATTMPT AT NE-GRO DISFRAN- CHISEMENT. (Continued from first Page Negroes would probably be excluded from voting in the July 28th primaries. This threat was put into effect on June 11th when a resolubarring Negroes from voting in the primaries was passed at a meeting at Waco, of the Democratic State Executive Committee. Various proceedings were immedately instituted to test the validity of this action and the new law upon which it was based. Attorney N. D. Evans of Waco, President of the Independent Colored Voters League, filed on behalf of O. P. DeWalt, President of the Houston Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. and J. B. Grigsby, a petition in federal cit for an injunction to restrain officials of the Democratic party and election judges from debailing them from voting in the primaries. It was upon this case that Judge Hutcherson on July 24th upheld the democratic officials in their action, despite the contentions of Messrs. Dewalr ans Grigsby that they were bona fide Democrats and despite the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the Nixon vs Hernnd case. In order that no stone be left unturned in making a through test of the new law and to prevent any loopholes through which the issue might be evaded, N. A. A. C. P. attorneys had prepared for just such a decision. F. C. Knollenberg of El Paso, attorney for Dr. Nixon in the case decided in 1927, had on July 19th managed for Negro Democrats to present themselves at the primary polls on July 28th, accompanied by reliable witnesses who would testify later to theirusal to permit the colored voters to cast their ballots. Dr. Nixon, at Mr. Knollenberg's suggestion, has also written to each of the thirty-three members of the Democratic State Committee requesting that the rule be changed whicheliminates the Negro voter from the Democratic primary, and serving not cee that in the event of theirusal legal action will be taken. Dr. Nixon has in his possession the registry receipts signed by the committee. In the event of their retusal to change the rule, it is probable that each of the thirty-three men will be made co-dedefendant in the later action. T thirt test was that of J. G. Wimberley, an attorney of San Antonio, was filed a similar action to that of Messrs. DeWalt and Griglsby at Houston. Judge Duval West at San Antonia ruled against Mr. Wimberly on the same day that Judge Hutcherson decided against Messis. DeWalt and Griglsby at Houston. Judge West denied a temporary restraining order which would have prevented election officials from refusing Democratic bellots to Negro voters. The briefs and decisions in all these cases are being carefully studied by the National Legal Committee of the N. A. A. C. P., and in particular by Louis Marshall, it will be recalled, prepared the brief and was largely responsible for the Supreme Court victory last year which eliminated the Texas law barring Negroes from Democratic primaries. It is Mr. Marshall's opinion that the new law is as as clearly in violation of the federal Constitution as was the one excised unconstitutional in 1927. The N. A. A. C. P., is now negotiating with attorneys to handle the case to be determined upon which will cover the issues involved in all of those which have arisen or may arise. The new attempt to evade the express commands of the 14th and 16th Amendments and the words of the Supreme Court in the Nixon case last year will be resolutely and indignantly opposed up to tnd including the United States Supreme Court. A favorably decision in the Texas cases will have exceedingly far-reaching effect. At the present time the N. A. A. C. P., is working not only on the Texas cases but on others involving almost precisely the same issue in virginia and Florida. The importance of these efforts can be seen in the editorial comment of the New York Times on the Texas case to the effect that "the Fifteenth Amendment may be in for a real test in the next few years."

Y. P. U. BOARD FACTS ABOUT GAS RATES. FACTS ABOUT GAS RATES. STATEMENT OF ROBERT C. FOUL STON, FORMER CITY ATTORNEY. On March 21st, 1923, the Public Service Commission of which C. M. Reed was a member, in Docket No. 4975, fixed a gas rate for Wichita of 53 cents per thousand plus a customer's charge of seventy-five cents per month. Sometimes in 1925 or 1926 the city of Wichita filed an application before the Public Service Commission asking a reduction in the gas rate. Later this application was heard and after considerable time, the Public Service Commission ordered the installation of a new rate, which was slightly lower than the former. The Gas Company instituted an action in the District Court of Shawnee County, Kansas to enjoin the new rate. T. M. Lillard was appointed as the Special Master to hear this case. The suit was tried before him and prosecuted by the Robt. D. Carver and defended by M. F. Halty, atty. for the Public Service Commission. Mr Lillard found that the rate fixed by the Hussey Commission was unreasonably low and confiscatory and recommended that the rate be enjoined. The Shawnee County District County sustained the findings of Mr. Lillard, and ordered the injunction. The Public Service Commission appealed to the supreme Court. The Supreme Court sustained the lower Court and the injunction against the rate became permanent (see report of case in 125 Kansas, 340.) This case was pending at the time I resigned in November, 1926. With the rate established by the Public Service Commission thus enjoined, under the law the Gas Co. had the right to fix its own rate. This has been the law since the decision in Emporia Telephone case. Effective July 1, 1927, the Gas Co. served a notice increasing the rate to the present schedule, Mr. Reed was not a member of the commission and had nothing to do with fixing the present rate. This rate was fixed by the Gas Co. and no one else. Mr. Reed was not a member of the commission and had nothing to do with the fixing of the rate which was enjoined. Mr. L. T. Hussey was the chairman at that time. St. Mary Bapt. Church REV. J. E. DOUGLASS, PASTOR Our Sunday service, July 23, was a great day, beginning with Sunday School at 9.00, with Supt.

OBITUARY The funeral of Franklin Benjamin Evans, who died July 24, 1928 at his home in Emporia, Kansas, is another event in the change which is so rapidly taking place in Emporia. Mr. Evans belonged to a generation that helped lay the foundations of our present Kansas. He was born Dec. 4, 1847, in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. At the age of 18 he left his home in North Carolina, walking to Ohio, where he stayed a short while and journeyed to Topeka, Kansas, where he lived for a short while. There he helped to build the 1st wing of the State House. He moved to Emporia, in 1875 where he lived for fifty years. Mr. Evans was one of the oldest and most faithful members of St. James Baptist Church. At a time, he mottaged his heart with stains. He had spent the winter in Chicago, with his daughters, Mrs. Nelle Wilson. Always jovial with an answer for everything, and every day, he was well liked by everybody. The funeral was preceded by Rev J. R. Richardson of Kansas City, Kas. He is survived by six children. His wife having preceded him th. e and two days.

My Dear Co-laborers: At the annual session of our State Convention held at Topeka, Oct. 4-9, 1927, the Convention adopted the more modern plan for carrying forward our Missionary and Educational work (both Home and Foreign) and in fact for carrying forward all our Convention obligations. Our plan calls for $10,000 annually. The plan adopted at the Convention was that $6,700,000 be apportioned directly to the Churches and the balance of the $10,000 to the Con- ROOFING!

The amount apportioned to the Churches to be paid monthly or quarterly to the State office, the able because the State obligations are due monthly. For instance, if 25 churches give $5.00 each monthly, it means $125.00, and 25 churches give $3.00 each monthly it means $75.00, and 75 churches give $2.00 each monthly, it means $150.00. This would give the Convention $250.00 to meet her regular monthly obligations a n d money to apply on National Convention requirements. Will you Brother Pastor and Officers give this your hearty support? The Pastor, as God's Keyman, please read this letter to the Church and ad them forth in this much needed and butiness-like plan for our Convention. This plan was presented to the Minister at the last Board Meetings and the amount for each of the Churches of $6,700.00 was suggested and accepted. The amount for your Church is in the following list. Please let us know the manner in which you will meet the request. We pay it will be the monthly regular plan. Please send something, beginning this month. Please pray for our work as the Missionary Pastors must carry on and the educational work must not be neglected. We are the Lord's and the work is His command. He will make possible if we only trust Him. This adopted at our State Convention in session at Topeka, Oct. 4-9, 1927. With much prayer and supplication we are very respectfully, W. A. W. BEN, E. N. O. Fréz, A. W. ROSS, J. C. O. Fréz, and Sunk. of Missions. Who will be first to enlist as a Monthly Regular?

Well, you haven't much company. THIS is a beautiful world. What are you doing to keep it beautiful? IT is worse than a Japanese puzzle to tell for whom to vote in this primary election, because there are so many for the same office. Quite a few are really good men, but it is like on a race track, it is hard to pick the winner or the best when everyone declares unto you he is the best and will do the most for all the people. There will be plenty of hide to tan when this election is over because many will be skinned alive by his opponent. GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY and let the Master speak to you through His servant. Then like a well trained and loyal soldier, obey the command. You will be more happy during the week and you will make others more happy. MASTER CARL WESLEY BARNES, son of Prof. and Mrs. E. M. Barnes of Kalamazoo, Mich. stands at the head of the list as the winner of the 1st prize in the baby contest at the baby clinic of the Dougass Community Center. Three others stood in his rank, but according to the picture in The Kalamazoo Cauette, Baby Barnes is the "Head Man in That Show." AL SMITH seems to be too strong for the strong southern white man, but to the surprise to the Devil, he is just strong enough for some of our leading Negroes. They reason that it is best to drink booze by the permission of the government, than to slip and take chances from the "blindtiger." Well, that is reasonable to the booze lover, but it is unreasonable to right and wrong. If they had minds to do right, they would welcome any agency that would help them do right and feel like it was the working of the Holy One that make the environments better for us, who are too weak to refrain from such a luring evil, that never leads upward, but always downward. This may seem right to you, but the end thereof is death. Think this matter thus, then think of the next generation that may not be as strong as you; then cast your vote for God and the next generation and it may be that you will save yourself in the transaction. Hoover will be the logical man out of th two for the President of the United States. THE honest men both white and black are very anxious to break up the old political ring in Kansas under the leadership of David Mulvane and Jim Stewart, who believe in the dangerous method of winning by might instead of winning by right. They think a few dollars will change the minds of the poor people, but I hope this time that every voter will satisfy his or her conscience and let no influence of money or sweet talk change your vote. Especially find out whether this ring has endorsed the candidate before you vote then go the other way. This ring told a few of the political leaders, when they attempted to meet the Central Committee at the Lassen Hotel that elected delegates to the National and State Conventions, that they had no place for them not even an alternate; so you see that this bunch is not right nor do they back up men who are right unless it is an exceptional case and we think birds of the same feathers will flock together, so, be careful, and the better thinking people will break up this ring. CHET SARLES is working hard and making straight forward and honest statements for the election of Sheriff. He bids fair for a mighty fine fellow. Call him up, talk with him and get your information firsthanded, then use your own judgment. We must not give up until we get some men in office that will do the right thing for everyone. Be earnest about his matter and vote to better conditions. Don't vote for any one just because he asked you or will pay you. We also hope that not a woman of our race will work or hand out cards merely for the money, but will work for those who, in your judgment will be the best for the office. THE KANSAS CITY CALL, of Kansas City; Kansas, Mr. Franklin, editor, is to be complimented for his special 10th Anniversary and Progress Edition. The edition itself, well shows progress; we gladly welcome The Call into our office, also. WE should take up a few matters with County Attorney Wertz before we vote for him as he is not the same since he was elected. He thinks some things from a Negro would be unbearable. He seems to be afraid of the Negro since his election. This is news worth considering, because it will be better to have a Democratic friend than a Republican enemy. THIS IS A HINT TO THE WISE.

We know, as employees, that Kansas Gas and Electric Company's service is well-nigh perfect, because the company never spares labor, expense or thought to keep it so. We know, too, that it is satisfactory, because our neighbors all tell us so—and we are always listening to what our neighbors say about the company, because our loyalty to the company, which has grown out of knowing that it is an honest, conscientious, painstaking public servant, makes us anxious to keep the public friendly to it.

As Governor, I shall understand that my office is a part of the Executive as distinguished from the Legislative and Judicial branches of our State Government and I shall strive energetically to carry into effect our laws as enacted by the legislatures and as enforced by our courts. I believe that Kansas, now largely a producer of raw products, should encourage the reduction of raw products into finished materials within our own board, by our own people and with our own capital to the end that the expense intervening between the first producer of the raw products and the ultimate consumer of the finished materials shall be as small as possible. Since Kansas is most interested in the production of raw agricultural products, that industry should be encouraged in every possible way because ultimate prosperity in Kansas cannot be obtained and preserved unless our basic industry is prosperous. The nature of utility of our soil having been largely exhausted, we must enourge increasingly efficient methods of production. We must have the cheapest and most efficient transportation possible. Marking facilities should be more thoroughly developed in order that the market prices of raw products may be stabilized and our raw producers protected against market manipulations of a gambling nature. While the marketing of raw agricultural products is essentially a national sale problem, yet I think that within our state we can with good effect encourage cooperative marketing and that through existing or strengthened ware-house receipt statutes and other state wide methods, we may aid stabilizing profitable market prices for our raw products. The establishment of good roads in our state not be considered as the end of the accomplishment but should be considered as a means to the end thereby Kansas may, as near as possible, become economically independent and socially unified. The development of a national system of workways as outlined by Herbert Hoover will give Kansas the benefit of competitive water rates and Kansas should have a state system of highways which will furnish additional competition in fixing state potation charges. The provision of our raw products must not only have a suitable road to his local market, but he must also have access to the roads to the market concentration points. I advocate strict economy in the operation of state affairs and it should be remembered that it is large proportion of the taxes owed are extended within the counties and with the cities and school districts. I urge that a careful study be made as to the allocation of tax tax our cents. I advocate that the administration of the many branches of our civil affairs be co-ordinated with a view of obtaining the highest possible degree of business efficiency at the least possible expense. Kansas is particularly fortunate in being free from the most problems of the large cities. Our status providing for the imprisonment of local criminals is having a similar effect. I think that part of our action should be paid to the new crime detection and discovery of evidence in criminal cases. I shall advocate a more efficient system in the collection of evidence in criminal cases as a aid to our courts and prosecuting officers. I have had twelve years of legislative experience in the House of Representatives and in the Senate and as Lieutenant Governor of the state. As Governor, I shall give to our people my best efforts to the promotion of the welfare of the state. Very respectfully submitted to the actia of Kansas. D A. N.
