He spoke at beginn on this showing the need of a price where help could be trained. This discussion became general after it had been introduced by Mr. Chiles. Mr. Jones, of the Southwestern Christian Associate, felt that this was the proper time to begin the movement. Mr. Wright, of Hannibal, Mo., concurred in all that had been said and wished that such a plan could be entered into at once. Mr. Mitchell said that he could employ competent printers at any time if he could find them. The poll was then taken and it developed that every newspaper man present was in need of competent help. The motion by Mr. Nick Chiles, seconded by J. E. Mitchell, went on the record of the association for the great necessity of such a movement. It was then voted that the National Baptist Publishing Board open its doors for the respectable candidates, on condition that these be supported by the newspaper men or the printers that they were to be employed by until they graduated. The amendments were taken and adopted. Mr. J. Finley Wilson read the list of newspaper men in attendance and the corresponding secretary announced that the secretary of the Business League would extend the usual courtesies to those present. Dr. Rosemie C. Brown, of the United States Public Health Board of Washington, D. C., was introduced He delivered an address in which he had couched the progress of the United States Public Health Board, and how they were combating many diseases. After Dr. Brown had finished the executive committee recommended the full co-operation of all those present in this movement. Following thus, Mr. R. E. Abbott, the editor of the Chicago Defender, spoke for thirty minutes. He addressed the executive committee on the work of the Defender. He related the incident leading up to the Chicago root, Mr. Campbell asked Mr. Abbott if he thought the article in the Defender caused the race trouble in Longview, Texas. Mr. Abbott stated that from time to time there had appeared in the Defender articles that had not been carefully scrutinized but that it was not the policy of the Defender to incite any race hatred anywhere. Almost two hours were spent by the executive committee in thrashing out the work of the advertising committee after the letter had been read from Mr. J. R. B. Whitney of Toronto, Can. Mr. Dear Pearl Boyd: With much regret I am compelled to say that business has been so arranged here that I find it impossible to get away in time to attend the executive session. I am winding up some business interest of mine here, so that I may be free to devote my whole time to the advertising game in connection with the Association. I believe there is a great future for me in handling the advertising for the Association. "Some method should be worked out by the Advertising Committee to secure a sworn affidavit from each publisher in the association. You have secured a few, but it is an absolute necessity for us to have one from each paper. If you can show the National Advertiser a weekly sworn circulation of 1,500,000 or 1,750,000 covered by 125 papers from the Atlantic to the Panama and from Canada to Mexico, we are going to get a hearing from the big National Advertisers with net results for the papers of the Association. "I regret up to the present time that no suitable time has been found to meet the convenience of all the Advertising Committee, wherein they could discuss plans and make final arrangements concerning the Advertising Agency. "I expect to have all my business arranged by next month so that I can take a freehold on this new line of work, and I am looking forward to the hearty cooperation and support Cibbs Clothing Co.

"After making a general survey of the various advertising centers, I have finally decided that New York will be the best location for our central office. "I trust that you will have the Advertising Committee to procure the advertisers from each newspaper, as they will be the most necessary asset ers in the annals of the business life of our rate, and that it may be the keynote in the foundation upon which the New Negro, the foster child of this new reconstruction period, is standing.
