WHITLOCK PRINCIPAL TALKER Kansas City Episcopalian Clergyman Delivers Thoughtful Address Favoring Democratic Nominee An audience numbering approximately 600, which taxed the capacity of Columbia hall, had the very unusual experience Monday night of hearing a priest of the Episcopal church, which has been facetiously charged with having "nothing to do with either religion or politics," deliver a thoughtful and well prepared address advocating the candidacy of the democratic nominee for the presidency at the first big rally of the campaign held by the local Al Smithfor-President Colored league. The speaker was the Rev. Bernard G. Whitlock, rector of St. Augustine's church, Kansas City, Mo., who had been sent by the New York headquarters to fill the place of the Rev. W. C. Williams, former pastor of St. John's A. M. E. church, this city, scheduled and advertised as the speaker for the rally. Father Whitlock's speech, void of the usual claptrap and stereotyped appeal to sentiment and prejudice popular with the average political speaker and addressed to the intellect rather than to the emotions, was well received and made a favorable impression. He said in substance, "I come to you not as a trained politician or skillful political speaker, but as one who with you and all forth-looking American citizens are deeply interested in the welfare of our country. I come to speak to you plainly, freely and frankly concerning what I believe to be best for the present time. You may differ from me and see matters in another light. That is your prerogative which must be respected and no one has a right to question it. "We are living in a new era. A new day has dawned upon the nation, race and world. In this new era freedom of thought and of action must and will play an important part, and we must think not so much of the past, but of the present. My desire is to start you to think and to help you to think, not according to tradition and sentiment, but according POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT 1930 RICHARD L.

And it is for this reason I plead the cause of a man whom I believe best fitted to exemplify not the ideals of the democratic party, or of the republican party, but the true ideals of democracy. Elected four times as the governor of the greatest state in the union, great in solid intelligence, in moral worth and in material wealth, proves that such a man is far above mediocrity, and cannot be either ignorant nor incompetent. "No man, however brilliant or well trained he may be, can step into the presidency without having much to learn during the first year of his incumbency. Governor Smith has shown that he has a keen mind. "Having come up from poverty and having had to endure hardship and know the bitterness of prejudice and intolerance, he is able to sympathize with those whose lot has been similar to his own. "Governor Smith is not any particular friend of the Negro, but he is the friend of mankind, which is righteously inclusive. The Negro has had too many 'special friends,' what he wants is less profession of special friendship, and more equal opportunities and fair play. "The two major issues of this campaign are tolerance and fair play. These obtained, all else will follow. The race will gain by being aligned against religious intolerance which would disqualify a man for office because he worships God according to the dictates of his conscience. And it cannot be disguised that this unChristian, un-American and unconstitutional spirit largely prevails in the present campaign. "The democratic party does not particularly want the Negro; neither does the republican party. There should be no delusion about this. The Negro therefore should realize the importance of taking an independent attitude and not one of continued subservience to one party which claims a mortgage upon him, whatever it may do. To quote a great race author who wrote many years ago, 'When the colored voters differ among themselves and are found to be on both sides of a political contest, they will begin to find themselves of some political importance. Their votes will be sought, cast and counted and this is the key to the whole situation.' That time has now come. "Two chief benefits will come from our supporting the democratic nominee: It will break the bonds of our subservience and will show independence and self assertion. Manly independence and dignified self as POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT 3 for United States Senator shared and highly prized for ringing true for justice, right- JOHN ALBERT WILLIAMS. Omaha, Nebraska, Friday, October 26, 1928 HONOR FATHER WHITLOCK AT DINNER A dinner was given in honor of the Rev. Bernard G. Whitlock at Mason's cafe, Monday night, at 7 o'clock by the local Al Smith-for-President Colored league. It was a nonpartisan affair and invitations were given to several republicans, but only a few of them attended. Father Whitlock was called upon and briefly expressed his pleasure at being present and stressed the importance of fellowship which such gatherings promote. Mr. John Wood bade him cordial welcome on behalf of the league and Dr. L. E. Britt, in a brief, witty and eloquent speech, also welcomed him. The doctor concluded by saying, "We honor you, reverend sir, for your noble career and the great work you are doing for the uplift of the colored people. We need such men as you. We like you. We are glad to have you here and feel honored by your presence. We hope you will come again. But while we like you and men like you and are proud of you, we are going to elect Hoover." The dinner was a very delightful affair both as to the menu and the spirit of good fellowship which prevailed. Mr. John T. Saunders died October 13, after an illness of nine days with pneumonia. He was a member of Pleasant Green Baptist church. He was buried Wednesday afternoon, October 17, from Zion Baptist church, with the Rev. Z. E. McGee, his pastor, officiating. Interment was at Forest Lawn cemetery. Mr. Saunders is survived by his wife, a daughter, an adopted son, three sisters and three brothers, and had been a resident of Omaha for 14 years. The S. S. H. Art and Literary club met at the homes of Mrs. Julia Bynum and the president, Mrs. Francis Holloway. A dainty luncheon was served. sertion are sadly needed. "This will result in making both parties clearly understand that we are an integral part of the political life of this nation and to be counted and treated as such, according to the constitution. The only outlet I can see for the freedom of thought and action upon our part which will generate the political independence which will prove our worth and win merited recognition in the political affairs of the nation is to have the courage to vote for Alfred Smith, whom I believe stands for the highest ideals of democracy and will give our country a clean and able administration." The meeting was called to order by Harry Leland, president of the local league, who gave reasons for his democratic faith, and waxed so enthusiastic in his praise of his party that he got mixed up on the "Patricks" and credited Patrick Henry with driving the snakes out of Ireland, showing metaphorically, of course, that the errors of the republicans who claim to have done everything for the Negro are to be driven out by the light of truth. He introduced as chairman of the meeting, Dr. W. W. Peebles, state organizer for Nebraska. Dr. Peebles delivered a brief, but fiery and forceful speech, in which he stated that he belonged to that group of younger Negroes who were determined to show that the republican party does not carry the Negro vote in its vest pocket. They were not opposing the party of Lincoln, for that was dead. The present party, its successor, had grown rich and arrogant. The Negro earned his freedom on the battlefield fighting to preserve the Union. He urged support of the two race candidates for the state legislature, Barnett and McMillan. "Ted" Roosevelt spoke briefly for the candidacy of his father, Richard L. Metcalfe, democratic nominee for United States senator, who could not be present, owing to the fact that his numerous speeches in the state had rendered him so hoarse that he could only whisper, and he did not wish to start another "whispering campaign!" He said his father, in the event of his election, would make good his promise to be not only the senator from Nebraska but the senator for Nebraska. At the request of the chairman, Father Whitlock was introduced by his friend and colleague in the priesthood, the Rev. John Albert Williams. Under the chairmanship of Mrs. Augustus Hicks, a hard times masquerade party will be given at Dreamland hall, Thursday evening, November 8. A prize will be given to the man and woman who have the hardest looking hard times costume. Mrs. Hicks is captain of one of 12 companies which has been organized at St. Phillip's Episcopal church for the purpose of raising $1,000 for the repair and improvement fund, and between which companies there is keen rivalry. The members of Company No. 3, "The Ready To Go Team," of which Mrs. Hicks is captain are, Mesdames Dana Murphy, Jennie Scott, Emma J. Kennedy, the Misses Nonence Gibson and Lutie M. Bryant and Messrs. Augustus Hicks, Josiah Brown, Alonzo Gregory and Vanie S. Wheatley. Y. W. C. A. NOTES The North Side Y. W. C.

GROWING THANK YOU Whole Number 689 REPUBLICANS HOLD ENTHUSIASTIC RALLY AT DREAMLAND HALL Tuesday night a large audience comfortably filled Dreamland hall for a republican rally held under the auspices of the North Side Republican headquarters. The principal address was delivered by Mrs. Leitha Fleming, wife of Councilman Thomas B. Fleming of Cleveland, Ohio. Mrs. Fleming, who has been active in politics in Ohio for several years, became a prominent worker in national politics, when she was chosen eight years ago to organize the colored women in the Harding campaign. She was called into the same kind of service during the Coolidge campaign. She was selected by the republican national committee as organizer of the women in the western division with headquarters in Chicago in the present campaign. Mrs. Fleming at the outset of her speech disclaimed any intention of doing anything more than making a plain and practical talk to her audience in the "language of my people" and she kept her promise. Her appeal for the support of the party was along the familiar and traditional lines of its service to and friendship for the colored people. She urged the people to register and vote, urging this duty particularly upon the women who seemed indifferent to their privilege and responsibility in this matter. She emphasized the fact that colored representatives chosen to office do not simply represent the colored people, but their district, just as white representatives represent all the people in their district and emphasized the importance of voting for the whole ticket. She plead earnestly for her race to stand loyally by the republican party which is historically theirs. Mrs. Fleming paid a high compliment to Mrs. Ada Hill Smith, state organizer of colored women, for her ability and efficiency. Mrs. Ada Hill Smith ably presided and introduced the speakers, among whom were Congressman Sears; Mrs. Cameron, national committeewoman; Mrs. P. C. Hyson, vice-chairman of the county republican committee and chairman of the women's division; F. L. Barnett and Dr. A. M. McMillan, candidates for the state legislature, and Mr. Harry O. Palmer, the affable and live wire county chairman, who made an excellent speech and an enthusiastic appeal for the support of the whole republican ticket. WILL PRESENT PUPILS IN PIANO RECITAL Mrs. Florentine F. Pinkston will present her pupils in a pianoforte recital and contest next Thursday night at 8 o'clock at Salem Baptist church, Twenty-second and Seward streets. Music lovers always enjoy the musical treats which these recitals afford. The public is cordially invited.

He never missed a football game and had made countless loans to students. POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT Vote For HARRY G.

JUDGE DAY EIGHT YEARS ON DISTRICT BENCH Judge L. B. Day, for eight years on the district judicial bench, the last five as judge of the domestic relations and juvenile courts, admitted by lawyers generally as the most difficult assignment of the nine district court dockets, is candidate for judge of the state supreme court at the coming election. Judge Day succeeded Willis G. Sears, now congressman from this district, on the court of domestic relations, and during this time thousands of cases of both adults and juveniles, involving intricate problems of the home, have come before him. Evidence of his success in this work is attested by the fact that in the last general election and in the primary this spring, he led the district judicial ticket by substantial margins. He has written a number of articles for magazines on domestic relations work, and several of these have virtually become textbooks for social and welfare workers throughout the country. His thoughts about "The Ideal Family Court," gained from his experience on the bench, have been published nationally. Judge and Mrs. Day and their two sons, Frank, 10, and Robert, 7, live at 2750 Redick avenue. The judge and Mrs. Day are active in the Minne Lusa Parent-Teachers association; Prettiest Mile club; Nebraska State Conference for Social Work, of which the judge is president; and the House of Hope. Judge Day is a director of the Council of Social Agencies of the Omaha Community Chest and a director of the National Probation association. Several years ago he was honored with the presidency of the Municipal Golf association. Judge and Mrs. Day have lived in Omaha 14 years. He received his elementary training in the public schools of Albion, Neb., and is a graduate of the Creighton law school. In 1923, he was commissioner from the Omaha Presbytery to the general assembly of that church in Grand Rapids, Mich. JUDGE L. B. DAY In the election of Judge L. B. Day of the domestic relations and juvenile court to the state supreme court November 6th, Nebraska's highest tribunal would be augmented and strengthened by a man and a judge learned not only in the law but in the practical problems of life which are involved in hundreds of cases carried to the appellate court each year. Judge Day would carry to the supreme court a vast experience gained in eight years on the district court bench in Omaha and especially the experience he has had in domestic relations and juvenile problems in five years as judge of that court. In his race, the judge is having the backing of a large group of attorneys who have had occasion to observe his work as a judge, perhaps better than the average layman. "Nebraska has been exceedingly fortunate in the selection of its judges of the state supreme court," observed David A. Fitch, recent president of the Douglas County Bar association. "The judges of this court, which sit at Lincoln, by the very nature of the multiplicity of the cases coming for hearing before it, must have wide experience and knowledge. It is the most important court in the state, because it has final jurisdiction in all cases which do not involve federal questions and may be taken to the United States supreme court. "The state supreme court needs a judge with the experience and learn- ing of Judge Day. His experience in the domestic relations and juvenile courts, which has brought him into personal contact with almost every conceivable class of society, makes him especially well fitted for the position. "Then, too, it would be well for the people to take into consideration the fact that Judge Day, in seeking a promotion to the supreme bench, is not doing it to 'round out a career.' He is young, has the vigor and ability to carry on the strenuous duties of the office, and withal, he has the courage, learning and experience for which the office calls, to a rare degree. "I sincerely trust the people of Douglas, Washington and Sarpy counties elect Judge Day to the supreme bench at the coming election and that his majority will be enough to show him that the people have appreciated his untiring efforts and the ability he has exhibited on the district court bench."

They solicit your vote solely on the strength of their own record in office and the splendid business record of the party they represent, that they be entrusted with the affairs of state after election November 6th. We address this appeal to you not as the colored race or a separate part of this nation, but as an integral part of the whole American citizenship. By this we acknowledge your merit to equal rights and privileges of all other citizens and that you are vitally affected in whatever manner this great nation of ours with all of its vast and complex problems of administration is affected. That your interest is its interest and its success your success. In the light of this knowledge, and in an effort to continue the most efficient government of both state and nation, the Republican Party has culled out from among millions of men, and marshalled forth for this important task, these men who are of proven ability and long experience. The democrats are making claims that they can satisfy everybody. That party's head in New York, its tail in Arkansas, and its body in the solid South, goes forth up and down the land claiming to be the colored man's friend; offering him equal rights and privileges, while the fundamental tenet of their doctrine is to keep forever down the Negro and assert in perpetuity the so-called "White Supremacy." The Republican Party, while acknowledging that it has done many things it ought not to have done, and left undone many things it might have done, makes no such dishonest professions, but promises and strives to do the things which bring the greatest benefits and prosperity to the nation in general and therefore PETER H. ur J. We r GOVERN Arthur J. Weaver for GOVERNOR the colored citizens in particular. In the light of this we invite your careful comparison of the two sets of candidates now asking your grant of this great public trust. Ask yourself this question: If you had a great business enterprise which required the highest training and technical skill obtainable to produce success, which set of the presidential candidates would you employ? Mr. Smith comes to you with very meagre educational equipment and no governmental experience outside of his own state. His greatest claim to fitness for the presidency of the United States is his political background. Mr. Hoover, on the other hand, comes to you with the highest technical training—long years of successful business management in his own name, and ten years' experience in the management of the most complex governmental business that this nation has. He has served successfully and continuously under three presidents and undertaken the most difficult tasks of the nation. Now, we ask you, which one of these men YOU would employ for your business? Of course, Hoover! Follow down the list we here present and examine the qualifications of the rest of the candidates. R. B. Howell for U. S. Senator. A man with very much the training of Hoover—a highly skillful engineer. A man active in the public service of state and nation for over a quarter of a century. Willis G. Sears, congressman from the 2nd district, is a lawyer of no mean reputation. He has been THE foremost champion of the needs of his constituency. He has been a fearless, consistent and persistent fighter for the rights and needs of this community and the people at large. Arthur J. Weaver, a successful business man and efficient public servant, is ably fitted for governor of the state. George A. Williams has served two terms as lieutenant governor. Frank Marsh, a successful business man and able official, seeks re-election as secretary of state. L. B. Johnson, a competent public servant seeks re-election. Dan Swanson, a very familiar name to the people of Nebraska. He is a successful business man and a faithful public servant. W. M. Stebbins, present state treasurer and a very competent public servant, seeks re-election to that office. C. A. Sorensen, a very competent man, seeks election as attorney general. Charles Randall is seeking election to the long term of railway commissioner. John E. Curtiss seeks election to the short term of railway commissioner and asks your vote. Likewise, the legislative, senatorial and county candidates are all men of proven ability and seek your vote that the tried policies of the Republican Party may continue its wise administration of affairs.
