NEW YORK, Sept. 21—The Arizona State Convention of the American Legion has endorsed resolutions calling for training camps in states where there are not enough Negro citizens to form separate camps, as now required. The resolutions also denounce the present system as unfair. V. II. Marchbanks reports to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that the resolutions were unanimously endorsed. The resolutions to passed by the Arizona Legionaries, will be presented to the next national meeting of the American Legion. "I don't think we violate any law," writes Mr. Marchbanks to the N. A. C. P., "when we ask the government to give our boys an unconditional chance to acquire education that is being paid for by the taxpayers of the country." RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION YOUTHS SENTENCED TO DEATH-GET NEW TRIAL LITTLE ROCK, ARK., Oct. 4. The Arkansas Supreme Court held last week that evidence introduced at the trial of Robert Bell and GroSwain, sentenced to death in St Francis Circuit Court on a charge of crowning Julius McCailey on 11 years old while boy was insufficient to contain the verdict and reversed the case for a new trial. Young McCollum and a colored boy aged 15 were drowned at the same time, and it was the contention that the two boys counter, 14 and 13 years old, were responsible, but the defense attorney, led by Stipi Jeros, retained by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, showed that there was no evidence of a struggle and pointed out the evidence more clearly indicated that one of the boys had fallen in the pond and that both had been drowned when a rescue was attempted. Alleged confessions of the convicted youths are said to have been obtained by beating them. --Clipping. WALTER WHITE'S 'FIRE IN THE FLINT' APPEARS IN FRENCH TRANSLATION (N. A. C. P.)

MOREHOUSE SQUAD IN FIRST SCRIMMAGE ALANTA, GEORGIA Sept. 22- ATLANTA, GEORGIA Sept. 22- WICHITA, KANSAS, FRIDAY, Oct. 12, 1928 WAR DEPARTMEN ASKED ABOUT COLOR BAR AGAINST AVIATOR IN LIBERIA (N. A. A. C. P.) NEW YORK, Oct. 5—The war Department has been asked whether it is true, as stated in a despatch from Montevilla Liberia, that on American Negro, military instructor to the Liberian Frontier Force had been unable to qualify for an air pilot's license in the United States because he was a Negro, and had been obliged to enter the School of Aviation in Berlin, Germany. The inquiry, addressed to Dwight F. Davis, Secretary of War, by Walter White, Assistant Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, continues: Secreta "I wish respectfully to inquire of the War Department I, there is any ruling which would thus debar a Negro from securing an air pilot's license especially when that Negro is an American citizen and is serving a friend y nation so largely influenced by the United State Government and populated by American Negroes. I think you will agree with us, if this despatch is correct, that it is an exceedingly ironical situation where a citizen of the United States is debated by his own government on apparently no other grounds except that of co or from perfecting himself in his chosen field, and is forced, by race prejudice, to secure his training in a country which not many years ago was opposed at aim by both the United States and Liberia, in a struggle presumed to be for Democracy." Osawatomie Doings Services at Ebenezer Baptist Chw, were good, last Sunday; beginning with S. S, with Mim. Sam Reed, Supt, in charge and officers at their post of duty.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22—Writing in the October CRISIS Magazine we on "The Possibility of Democracy in America." Dr. W. E. H. DuBois assets that "here we have captured the greatest experiment in democracy, we have perhaps the greatest failure." The disfranchisement of Negroes, he points out, has encouraged oligarchy in the South, has enabled elites to nullify the 11th and 15th Amendments and even the 19th or woman Suffrage Amendment. "An finally," writes Dr. DuBois, "it entirely vilifies the normal distribution of voting power throughout the nation and makes a third party impossible." Another important article in the Octo Aristis by Airel Alexander on The Housing of Harley" illustrated by photographs of the new Paul Lawrence Dunbar Apartment. The cooperative apartments, erected by Mr. Rockefeller, have achieved what Mr. Alexander calls "an astonishing success." He writes: "The house received the American Institute of Architecture's first prize for 1927. I perhaps for the first time in the life of the Negro in America, here is an enterprise which with all its philanthropy has essayed and succeeded in being beautiful." By the terms of the plan "enants in paying "rent" a so pay off principles and interest so that eventually the property will be entirely thes. Other features of the October Calis include a group of poems, drawings and survey of race relations and Negro achievement in various fields. An editorial entitled "How Shall We Vote?" gives some pungent advice to those puzzled by the pic fietia campaign now it proxies.

C. P. WITHER IN "SOCIAL "FORCES" PUBLISHES STATISTICAL STUDY NEW YORK, Oct 5--The "ational Association for the Advancement of Colored People calls attention to an important study "Race Prejudice: Crime and England" by Richard and Engel" by Richard E. Laptop, in Federal Forces for September, a quarterly published by the University of North Carolina. Mr. Lupee examined harpole of individuals and a number of hotel proprietors in both countries and labulated their responses. Out of 560 people questioned in various parts of France, exclusive of the Seaport Towns, Bordaux and Marseilles, only 9 admitted race prejudice 72 were doubtful and 273 had no race prejudice against Negroes. Of 31 hotel proprietors questioned in France 24 said they would admit well-behaved colored people. "The fact that, with the exception of tourist hotels whose policy is adjusted to foreign, not French, attitudes, French hotel proprietors do not object to colored guests," writes Mr. Lupee, "certainly indicates that the French people as a whole, are not adverse to associating, at least impersonally, with dark-skin-people." In England Mr. Lapiere found a relatively much higher degree of race prejudice, 254 out of 315 people questioned admitting prejudice, 47 being doubtful and only 14 without it. Out of 20 English hotel properties questioned, only 4 would admit Neroces. "One fact stands out from this present study," writes Mr. Lapierre, "which has a general application to the problem of racial prejudice. Since the French people have no general antagonism to, or distance for skin color, that fact definitely precludes any concept of race prejudice as arising from or on an inherent psychological valuation of white skin by the whites, and a 'natural' rebellion for dark or black skinned peoples. This fact forces one to the study of social, no biological origins where color prejudice is found. Moreover, no biological explanation can account for the difference found between France and England in their attitudes toward colored peoples." TEXAS SPEAKER To the Kansas Brotherhood:— This comes to say that the Zion Baptist District Association closed one of the greatest sessions in its history for 58 years, at detroit, Texas, last week, Oct. 3-7, 1924.

No nuts and gallons, neither quarts THE KIND THAT WON'T SCALP YOU. Because of discoveries in the field of Social Sciences, and experiments in the field of Religious Education, workers with boys have ventured into new fields. For 20 years, the Y. M. C.

RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION Improved Uniform International Sunday School Lesson (D) RCS PUBLIC INSTITUTE DD Dean Ministry Bible Institute of Chicago (P) 1928 Western Newspaper Union Lesson for October 14 SPIRITUAL GIFT3 LESSON TEXT-1 Cor 12.3.731: 12.1.5 GOLDEN TEXT—Now children faith, hope, charity, these three, but the greatest of these is charity PRIMARY TOPIC—Love is the best of All JUNIOR TOPIC—The Greatest Thing in the World INTEMIDATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—The Greatest of All Gifts YOUNG PEOPLE, AND ADULT TOPIC—Spiritual Gifts Joel predicted a remarkable effusion of the spirit in Messianic times (Joel 2:28, 29; of Acts 2:17, 18). Before the crucifixion, Jesus pre- lised to send the Holy Spirit to be the helper and guide of His people. This was fortuitously fulfilled on the day of Pentecost. The gifts of the Spirit were extended to all classes. Not only were these endowments marked by great profusion, but by great diversity. In the exercise of these gifts confusion would surely arise. Divine life, and daily poured into human nature, stirred it to unusual power. In view of the abuses and confusion which are likely to arise from such a condition, it is highly important that certain principles be set forth for guidance and regulation I. The Infallible Criterion (I Cor. 12:3). The infallible test which determines whether gifts are spurious or genuine is one's conception of and attitude to ward Jesus Christ. Only those who recognize Him as God manifest in the teesh, His sacrious atonement on the cross, and submit to Him as their Lord, can be recognized as possessing the gift of the Holy Spirit. Christ said before leaving the earth that when the Spirit came His supreme business would be to testify of Him to take the things of Christ and show them unto the people. The soundness of the faith of a man is the sign of this mission from God. II. The Diversity of Spiritual Gifts (I Cor. 12:11). In the church there are to be found those possessing the gift of wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment of spirits, divers kinds of tongues and the interpretation of tongues. III. The Unity of the Spirit's Gifts (1 Cor 12:12:00). Cirl if a unity is only possible when effected by the one Holy Spirit. This unity andist diversity is represented under the figure of the human body. tions for the good of the body (v. 12) 2. The members are mutually related and independent (v. 13.17). 3. The place of each member is determined by the choice of God (v. 15). terminated by the choice of God (v. 15). 4. The members which are least attractive and least complacious are most important (vv. 21-24). IV. Love, the Spirit's Best Gift (Icor. 12.31 13). 1. The pre-eminence of love (vv. 13). It transcends. (1) Speaking with tongues. (2) The gift of prophecy. (3) Faith of the most vigorous kind. (4) Full anthropy of the most generous soul. (7) Horole devotion leading to martyrdom. 2. The attributes of love (vv. 47). (1) Long suffering and kind. (2) Free from envy. (3) Freedom from boasting. (4) Decorous and well behaved (5) Unselfish. (6) Does not give way to passion; is not quick tempered. (7) Thinks no evil; does not impute evil modifies to others; is not bias philos. (8) Delights not in evil. (9) Respect all things. (10) Is trustful, hopeful and firm. 3. The permanence of love (vv. 8, 12). Prophecy as prediction will be fulfilled. Prophecy as teaching will be brought to an end in the day when teaching is not needed. Tongues shall cease, for as the languages of earth were caused by God's judgment for sin, so shall Christ's reclamation bring the nations back to one tongue. Knowledge shall be done away with the coming of a wider and nobler intelligence. The twilight will be lost in day, childhood in maturity. Love will always abide, for God is love. A. The comparative value of prophecy and tongues (14:125) Prophecy is given the highest place because it is to declare God's message to men. Its primary meaning is to forthright To speak with tongue means to speak in other languages for the purpose of showing the presence of God. One Who Never Forgets Others may forget us in their prayers; there is One in heaven who never does forget. Others may fall us when their lump burns low; he ever liveth. We are engulfed by the prayers of One who loves us and has the ear of God and therefore is able to save to the uttermost—George H. Morrison That hotel is a Bettel, if Christ is there.—Lie.
