TWIN-CITY HERALD READ THE HERAED Volume 1--No. 8 RACIAL INTOLERANCE CONDEMED BY FRAZIER RACE PREJUDICE ABNORMAL SAYS FRAZIER IN FORUM MAGAZINE New York—Writing on "The Pathology of Race Prejudice" in the June Number of the Forum Magazine (441 Lexington Avenue), Edward Franklin Frazier points out that the "Negro-complex" of white Southerners is closely akin to insanity. Mr. Frazier points out that "just as the lunatic seizes upon every fact to support his delusional system, the white man seizes myths and unfounded rumors to support his delusion about the Negro." Mr. Frazier recites a number of instances showing the violence of irrational prejudice against the Negro, among them being the following: "Some years ago a mulatto went to a small Southern town to establish a school for Negroes. In order not to become persona non grata in the community, he approached the leading white residents for their approval of the enterprise. Upon his visit to one white woman he was invited into her parlor and treated with the usual courtesies shown visitors; but when this woman discovered later that he was colored, she chopped up the chair in which he had sat and, after pouring gasoline over the pieces, made a bonfire of them. . . . From a practical viewpoint, insanity means social incapacity. Southern white people afflicted with the Negro-complex show themselves incapable of performing certain social functions. They are, for instance, incapable of rendering just decisions when white and colored people are involved, and their very claim that they 'know' and 'understand' the Negro indicates a fixed system of ideas respecting him—whereas a sane and just appraisal of the situation would involve the assimilation of new data." TO MARRY 1 REV. M. J. STEWART Rev. M. J. Stewart, pastor of Memorial Baptist Church, left this week for a trip to Kansas City and St. Louis, Mo., where he will take unto himself a bride. The Stewarts will return next week and Rev. Stewart will be in the pulpit on June 26th. The church is planning a wonderful welcome for the Stewarts, $200.00 was raised in last Sunday's rally. THE POKEGAMA LAKE ADDITION Wonderful interest has been shown from the many different lot owners at the Pokegama Lake Addition, near Pine City, Minn., in regards to developments and activities.

King, proprietor of an alleged peonage farm in Oglethorpe County, Georgia, admitted he struck and whipped Negroes, he denied having used force to keep them on his plantation and was acquitted of the peonage charge by a Federal Court jury in Athens, Ga. When it was learned that James Felton, the colored man who escaped to Danville, Va., was to be taken to Georgia to testify, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People wrote the Department of Justice voicing apprehension for Felton's safety and urging that he be safeguarded. Felton after testifying, was returned to Virginia and there released. One of the witnesses at the trial testified he had been warned not to testify against Dr. King. A number of Negroes who left the plantation, it was testified, "were caught on the road," when it was "discovered" that tools and provisions were missing after they had left. Reports of peonage on Dr. King's farm have been made and called to the attention of the Department of Justice for some months prior to the trial just concluded.

INTERVIEW MAYOR LEACH The Do-Right Club, an organization of aggressive and determined young men, visited Mayor Leach twice last week. The results of the two conferences were gratifying, according to Mr. Jackson, business manager of the club. The representations that the organization made to the mayor had to do with the "deplorable" closed employment door situation. It is reported that twenty colored men will be considered on the University Ave. paving job and that the civil service commission intends to give the eligibility of colored candidates for civil positions more consideration. The Do-Right Club should be commended for their manly stand for something tangible. Get on the Band Wagon everybody and move forward. We will publish next week the names of the officers of this seemingly progressive organization.

LOCAL CHILD MASTERS PIANO THREE-YEAR OLD PLAYS PIANO BY EAR—IS APT PUPIL Son of Local People Is Called Prodigy A musical prodigy, a tiny four year boy, was discovered recently by a Herald reporter. This wee child has been playing the piano since he was two years old. Donald Goff, the subject of this story, was four years old Wednesday, June 15th, and is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Goff, 304 E. Jessamine Street, St. Paul. This unusually intelligent little chap was enrolled as a piano student at St. Agatha's Conservatory three weeks ago. This institution is one of the most prominent of its kind in the Northwest and heretofore they have not accepted as piano pupils children under seven years of age. Little Donald showed so much native talent and promise that he was enrolled by the school. His teachers have expresed amazement at his almost perfect sense of rhythm. The Herald's reporter was entertained with several selections by Donald, whose baby fingers beat a tattoo on the piano keys. This gifted little fellow knows his alphabet perfectly and this aids him in his music lessons. He is also able to count THE CHILDREN'S HOME well. A story is told of how he first showed his aptitude for music. His older brother, Stephen, Jr., returned home from school one day humming a kindergarten song. Little Don then two years old just barely able to toddle along climbed upon the piano bench and duplicated his older brother's song on the piano. Mr. and Mrs. Goff were surprised. After that Don was encouraged and the songs that he heard people sing he reproduced by ear on the piano. This unusual child, is a perfectly normal boy, mischievous and playful as most of them are. He still lisps baby talk as all four year olds do but he is undoubtedly a natural pianist who if nurtured will blossom forth as a musical genius. Seeing is believing, hearing is knowing, when the writer was told that a three year old tot could play a piano, he was dubious but little Donald Goff satisfied all of our doubt. This interesting child is called "an unusual and amazing case" by musical authorities. He is the grandson of Mr. James Birdeaux, 1032 Rondo Street. FORMER ST. PAUL PIANIST DIES IN PHILADELPHIA Miss Mae Williams of Philadelphia, Pa., formerly a resident of St. Paul, died last week after a long illness. Her body will be interred in the family burial plot in St. Paul. Miss Williams, the daughter of Edward P. Williams, an old settler in St. Paul, is well known to St. Paulites. Miss Williams was a very gifted and well educated pianist, being a graduate of the Boston Conservatory of Music. She leaves to mourn her a sister, Miss Bertha Williams and her father, E. P. Williams, both of Philadelphia. Mrs. E. L. Smith of Chicago has returned home. She was called to the city by the death of her niece, Baby Dorothy Randall. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY TWIN CITY GOLDEN CIRCLE HOLD FIRST ANNUAL SERMON PRINCE HALL AFFILIATIONS James Frances Rickards Assembly No. 21 Order of the Golden Circle—the female auxiliary of the United Supreme Council of 33rd and last degree of the A. and A. S. Rite of Freemasonry Prince Hall Affiliation, Northern Jurisdiction, U. S. A., attached to North Star Consistory No. 14, Jurisdiction of Supreme Council—held its first annual sermon June 5th, 1927, Whitsunday, at 3:30 P. M., at St. James A. M. E. Church, St. Paul, Minn. Rev. W. H. Griffin preached a most interesting, inspiring, uplifting, eloquent, and appropriate sermon. The Loyal Ladies of the assembly in full uniform were in attendance in force, and the Peers and Princes in uniform of the North Star Consistory No. 14, in goodly numbers were present. A large collection for the number present was taken up and given to the church and pastor. The head of the assembly and of the Supreme Council, Most Illustrious Summer R. Frances was represented by his Deputy Ill. Wm. R. Morris, $33^{\circ}$. Loyal Lady Gertrude A. Thomas, who is serving her fourth term, is the Loyal Lady Ruler, and Loyal Lady Geraldine Pickett is the secretary. Only those females connected by birth or marriage with a 32nd degree Mason in good standing or who died in good standing, can become a member of the Golden Circle, the highest branch of Masonry to which a female can belong. BELLE OF BARCELONA MAKES A HITS BELLE OF BARCELONA MAKES A HITS OPERETTA WELL RECEIVED BY APPRECIATIVE AUDIENCE LAST MONDAY NIGHT Wade, Allen and Hughes are Stars of "Belle" Despite numerous counter attractions a fair sized and appreciative audience greeted the Phyllis Wheatley Glee Club's presentation of the "Belle of Barcelona," a three-act operetta, last Monday evening at St. Stephen's Auditorium. While the crowd was not as large as it should have been, what it lacked in numbers it made up in enthusiasm. Out of deference to the habitual late comers (the writer was one of them), the curtain did not rise until nine o'clock. The pictures presented by the chorus of young men and women arrayed in the costumes of Spain 3-8036-PERRY JOE was pretty indeed. From the opening chorus, "Gaily We Sing," until the closing number, "Happy Wedding Bells," the tuneful songs, and delightful plot interested and held enraptured the auditors. A nice portrayal of Margarita, the "Belle," was given by Thelma Wade, "Tippie" as Mrs. Wade is known to most of her friends, displayed a smile on her first appearance that seemingly wouldn't come off. Her acting and singing of a most difficult role was splendid. Opposite her as the hero, Lieut. Wright, was Ira Allen, who proved to be some lover. His tenor singing especially, in the duets, with the heroine was very good. Every play must have a villain, the wily and scheming rascal in the "Belle" was played with finesse by Clarence Hughes, whose robust acting and fine stage presence usually gains the sympathy of the audience for the villain. Clarence is a "show stealer." Popular with the audience was the proverbial and typical blarney, Pat Malone, a red headed and talkative Irishman. This part as portrayed by Paul Curry, caused a small riot. Paul must have some Irish neighbors. Mark Gibbs, as Emilio, the toreador, proved very effective. The role of Mercedes, his sweetheart, assigned to Susie Wilson was handled capably. Blanche Mays, as a typical English governess, was humorously satisfying. Senor and Senora De Montero, wealthy Spanish aristocrats, were appropriately pictured by Mr. and Mrs. Edward Brown, Clarence Underwood as Pedro; John Powell as Don Jose, Beulah Mitchell as Dona Marcella, Mae Glenn playing Dona Anita, and Briscoe Lewis as Captain Colton, all were good. The supporting members of the cast, Marie Hughes, William Peebles, Allie Glenn, Willa Lee Pointer, Marguerite Seymour, Pricilla Ingram, Jerome Henry, William Thomas, Lloyd Shanks and Clarence Lockhart gave the principals wonderful support. The chorus singing of the entrancing score of the "Belle of Barcelona," was unusually fine, showing excellent training. U. S. POSTAGE 1 1/2c PAID Minneapolis, Minn.

In the future the colored vote or their own interests, take a more active part. It is gratifying to know that all of the reported, privately or publicly, were successful The results of last Monday's balloting, in the city election contests, were very satisfactory to the HERALD, and we believe, to the majority of the colored people of this city. In the future the colored voters in this state and city must for their own interests, take a more active part in the political affairs of the state. It is gratifying to know that all of the candidates that the Herald supported, privately or publicly, were successful with the exception of one. SCARE ANTI-NEGRO HEADLINES not write this but quite often the TWIN CITY is the intelligence of their high regard for the late, the editor always reminding his readers that women that he ever knew were Negroes, yet the REPORTER runs short of somthing 'taking paper it proceeds to push the sale of its ex-headline NEGRO DOES THIS OR THAT. The race is to be deplored. The very people that likes so well are injured by such vicious new man's race to his crime. We have read the book we have yet to see an article in it that re-group. We admit that THE REPORTER uses methods, but such fanning of the flames of the many community. We would not write this but quite often the TWIN CITY REPORTER bursts out with the intelligence of their high regard for the better class of colored people, the editor always reminding his readers that some of the best men and women that he ever knew were Negroes, yet it seems that every time that the REPORTER runs short of something "live" to bolster the sales of the paper it proceeds to push the sale of its editions with the typical scare headline NEGRO DOES THIS OR THAT. This pandering to racial intolerance is to be deplored. The very people that the Reporter's editor claims he likes so well are injured by such vicious news articles that subordinate a man's race to his crime. We have read the REPORTER for a long time and we have yet to see an article in it that reflects credit on our particular group. We admit that THE REPORTER sells more copies by their present methods, but such fanning of the flames of racial prejudice is not good for any community.

The recent lynchings of the past week causes us to consider in passing the general hypocrisy of America. For a brief survey let us call to mind the platform upon which Wilson was re-elected president of U. S. If you remember he promised to keep us out of war; you know how well he did it, and yet some of us are wondering why we really went outside of the fact, of course, that we went to make the world safe for democracy. When we returned from France, we found that, according to the Constitution, we had gone dry and so the idealists and moralists pointed with pride to the progress of the nation. We had won the war to end war. We had made it impossible for any one to ever again become drunk. Truly, as far as laws and platitudes were concerned, the millenarian was close at hand. With reference to wars we, today, have many men armed and ready for conflict on foreign shores. With reference to prohibition the daily calendar of any Municipal Court of any city of considerable size will convince you that the Volstead Act is another jester of the hypocrisy under which we move and have our being. Two thousand Negro workers held on plantations in Mississippi, in the recent flood even at the risk of their lives, convinces all that slavery has not yet left the shores of America, and lynching is acknowledged as ranking in America as a source of enjoyment on a level with the Bull Fights of Mexico. It has become the National sport. THE PROOF OF THE PUDDING of the pudding, says an old adage, is in the interest in any given statement of facts lies in the reports are coming out of the South condo. Asst. Sec. of National Association for the city in his investigation of flood conditions is up to peonage which should give pause to the close respective of location.

Committees will surround Mr. Pickens with any bodies have given gloriously for this occasion. It is to lend success to the effort. The proof of the pudding, says an old adage, is in the eating. Likewise the proof of interest in any given statement of facts lies in the reaction they bring. Disquieting reports are coming out of the South concerning peonage. Walter White, Asst. Sec. of National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in his investigation of flood conditions is unearthing facts with reference to peonage which should give pause to the colored people of the country irrespective of location. Undoubtdly remedial measures will come only from pressure initiated by the N. A. A. C. P. That pressure will be exerted in direct ratio to the strength it develops from the support of our group. What will be the reactions of our people in Minnesota? in Minneapolis and St. Paul? Wm. Pickens, Field Secretary of the Association, will be in the Twin Cities, Sunday and Monday. His message for St. Paul on Sunday, at St. James and Minneapolis on Monday, in the Assembly Hall—though directed to those directly interested in the contest of the babies—will be enlightening to all who want information of the progress made by the National Office in its program of fair play for the Negro. The local committees will surround Mr. Pickens with an attractive program. The babies have given gloriously for this occasion. The Twin City Herald adds bits to lend success to the effort. WHAT ABOUT HAITI. MR. SHIPSTEAD? senator, Henrik Shipstead, recently returned there in the black republic, that is under the veil the colored people of Minnesota would like to Mr. Shipstead has made no public statement that American Negroes are much interested in Haiti. The proper if Mr. Shipstead would tell the colonist what he thinks of the Haitian puzzle. Mr. Shipstead in the country as was another senator who made America's high handed methods in the small republic. Our senior senator, Henrik Shipstead, recently returned from Haiti. What he saw there in the black republic, that is under the well known U. S. Marine rule, the colored people of Minnesota would like to know. So far as we know Mr. Shipstead has made no public statement as to conditions in Haiti. American Negroes are much interested in Haiti, as is natural, and it would be proper if Mr. Shipstead would tell the colored people of this state just what he thinks of the Haitian puzzle. Mr. Shipstead was not barred from the country as was another senator who was an avowed critic of America's high handed methods in the small republic.

We do not expect group but do expect a fair and square the police department. We need an sympathetic to women of color. We want colored men in the city. We want the men and women of take the examinations required under the eligible for appointment. We hope to cleaning and other city departments. We are not making any demands, by the majority of the colored voters, voters. As we stated above, the Herald holders. And when another election who to support. The record we will keep The Observer Now that the battle smoke and war cries of the recent city election campaign have ceased, we now have opportunity for retrospection. The Herald was too young to take an active part in the campaign. Many pessimistic persons forecast that this organ was "just for the political campaign anyway." Due to this and other facts we were not as active as we intend to be in future campaigns. In the coming months we intend to scrutinize closely the words and acts of the successful candidates, when and where their actions deserve praise we will give it unstintingly, when their deeds require condemnation and censure we will mete it out unsparingly. The Negro in Minneapolis deserves, as a taxpayer and loyal citizen, certain considerations that he has in the past not received. We do not expect unusual favoritism to be shown the group but do expect a fair and square deal. We want more colored men on the police department. We need and must have a colored policewoman, sympathetic to women of color. We want colored men in the city fire department. We want the men and women of ability who aspire to city positions, to take the examinations required under the civil service law and thereby become eligible for appointment. We hope to see some colored men in the street cleaning and other city departments. We are not making any demands, the above hopes are doubtlessly shared by the majority of the colored voters and most of the right thinking white voters. As we stated above, the Herald intends to watch closely the office holders. And when another election time rolls around we will know just who to support. The record we will keep will tell the tale. An overflowing crowd of people of all religious denominations attended the city-wide all religious meeting at the New Municipal Auditorium last Sunday evening. A very pleasing and generous sprinkling of our people was noticeable throughout the entire audience, and also in the great chorus on the stage. This is at it should be, we ought to take an active part in all events of municipal character; when the new pipe organ is installed and the public concerts are given we should go and enjoy them as well as the band concerts at the parks. By doing so we show our ability to appreciate the really good things of life. Let us lay aside our selfishness. Another June 17th has passed into history. I wonder how many of our people, or any other people for that matter, know how important to us that date is in the early history of our country. In Boston, Mass., June 17th is a legal holiday; it is the anniversary of the battle of Bunker Hill. All the histories of this republic will tell you about Bunker Hill, but they forget to mention the part our people played in its glorious achievement. You know we, our people, really started the war of the American Revolution in 1775, in the person of our old friend, Crispus Attucks, who, leading a handful of white colonists, defied the British soldiers in King Street, Boston, and was shot down, the first American to die for the freedom of this country. We are always accused of "starting something," but we "started something" this time of which we should be very proud. Two other patriots, white, were killed in the same skirmish and on Boston Common you can see a monument to the three and both the statues and inscriptions will tell you who Crispus Attucks was. But to return to June 17th. The killing of these three men started the historic "Midnight Ride of Paul Revere" and the colonists began to gather in large numbers, to the annoyance of the British garrison who determined to break the movement up at once. The Americans made a stand at Bunker Hill. It was this battle that developed your great hero, Peter Salem, who with Salem Poor, won renowned glory there. It was Peter Salem whose sharp-shooting killed the British commander, throwing disorder in the English ranks. It is a wonderfully inspiring page in history that all our children should know. By and by, maybe, we, too, will celebrate it. I see a call has been made to organize a "Business Men's League." Very good, it is right and proper that this community should have just such a live institution that is found in every progressive city. We need more business houses in Minneapolis. While we have a few creditable places of commercial enterprises, there is room for great improvement, and as we said before, if we are going to develop any degree of self-maintenance as a people, we must get into some of the lines of production. A live, energetic Business League can do much to foster such movements. It is seldom people are fortunate enough to get too much for their money. Yet that is what everyone received who attended the surprisingly wonderful production of the "Belle of Barcelona," at St. Stephen's Auditorium last Monday evening. Space will not allow me to do even near justice to the very meritorious efforts of the players. And while many congratulations were freely passed on the stage—a great many more congratulations are due everyone connected with the production. May we see many more of them to large audiences. ```markdown ``` By F. G. Thomas * * * LE MAY KNOW In war cries of the recent city election the opportunity for retrospection.

A LINE FROM THE AUTO CITY Detroit.—Florence Ames Temple No. 17, Detroit, Michigan, sends greetings from the Auto City, and is happy to report that progress is evident in all departments. Twenty-two candidates were ushered into the ranks of Daughter Elkdom since the last meeting, and 43 were inducted through the mysteries of the degrees. The Educational Committee is functioning beautifully and bids fair to outstrip its expectations at the Grand Session in August. The work upstate is being nurtured by the State Deputy Dt. Grace Bryant, who has made trips to Port Huron and Jackson, since the last writing to degree and help with initiation. She has been enjoyably and profitably accompanied by Dt. Nellie Pierce, Past D. R., and Dt. Mollie Jones, D. R. of Morning Star Temple, Hamtrammack, Mich. Many expressions of good will have been made to the newly elected D. R., Dt. Myrtle Bell, for the expediency she has evinced thus far in office, and the harmonious spirit which she pleads for and emphasizes at the meeting. Fraternally Speaking By Jos. B. Levy MID-WESTERN ASSN. INDORSES GRAND EXALTED RULER St. Louis, Mo., May 25.—The Mid- Western State Association of the I. B. P. O. E. W., which met in this city and was attended by delegates from all parts of Missouri, went on record in unanimously endorsing J. Finley Wilson for re-election as Grand Exalted Ruler at the next Grand Lodge convention which will meet in August of this year. This association will open up headquarters at the next convention and will float to the breeze a banner on which will be emblazoned their support of the Grand Exalted Ruler as their choice as his successor. This endorsement, following so closely after that of the State Associations of Pennsylvania, Kentucky and the numerous Past Exalted Rulers' Councils, together with that of the individual lodges, seems to assure a unanimity of opinion that Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson should be returned to his present office so as to complete the work so auspiciously begun and carried on to its present magnificent proportions.

Hence it is no surprise that at the European Bantu Conference held recently in Cape Town the desire of the South African natives for direct representation in the Union parliament found strong expression. In South Africa indeed, many feel some of the first decisions will be reached regarding this question. In the past there have been two extreme points of view held on this issue, that of the white man who desired to dominate the Negro completely and that of the native who desired absolute equality with the white man. The final solution of this difficult problem is likely to be found in the direction of an increasing recognition of both sides to the rights of each to self expression, the true welfare of all being the fundamental requirement of its acceptance.—Christian Science Monitor.

Importers of Scandinavian Medicines SPORTS SQUIBS OF SPORT By Hamlet "Kid" Rowe Edward "Bearcat" Wright, who defeated Billy Wolfson's fighter, Duke Horn, decisively in their last meeting at the new auditorium, has had a very interesting career in the squared circle. Wright was born near Galveston, Texas, the home of Jack Johnson, in 1897. At an early age he began to demonstrate he was out of the ordinary in strength and showed some ability as a boxer. However, he was 22 years of age before he considered boxing seriously. Beginning his fistic career at that unusual and late age, Wright met with success, which continued until he joined the army. For about three years Wright was a member of the 9th and 10th U. S. Cavalry. Leaving the army at the age of 25, the big purses offered fighters brought Wright back into the game with a determination to make good. After an extensive campaign of training he proved to himself and to others that he possessed the necessary qualifications to make good in the fistic pastime. Going under the management of Jack Lewis, Omaha, Neb., veteran manager and promoter, he has met and defeated the best heavyweights of the West. It is his desire now to go East and meet some of the best fighters in the heavyweight division and make some real money. "Bearcat" Wright is above the average boxer in intelligence, and possesses an engaging personality, two things that will prove an asset to him in his endeavor to advance in the fistic world. Wright Game In a recent fight at Galveston, after being knocked down several times in the first round of a bloody fight with Willie Henry, the Texas Steer, Wright demonstrated he is game by taking all Henry had and finally turned the tide of battle by knocking Henry out. Wright has engaged in 39 bouts since his return to the ring, getting one draw, losing two, and winning the rest. Not a bad record, and when he invades the East—with a good break—there is no reason why he should not be heard from. There is a possibility of Promoter Mike Collins using the "Bearcat" here on some future card with Von Porat as an opponent. We are giving this brief history of Wright because so many fans have expressed a desire to know more about him. The evolution of Tex Rickard as a fight promoter and the part the colored fighter played in making Rickard a success, will be disclosed to the readers of The Herald in a future article. * * * Billy Freeman, the boxer, is making quite a name for himself as a pitcher. In six starts on the mound for Hancock, Minnesota, baseball club, Freeman pitched the entire game and won all six. * * * Since Jack Dempsey has announced his intention of meeting Jack Sharkey, there is a probability of Godfrey or Tate being used by Dempsey as a sparring partner, which will be about as close as they will get as contestants in the elimination contest for the heavyweight title.

THE THEATER At the Princess Theater on Broadway, New York City, is found the Pulitzer prize winning play, Goat Alley, by Paul Green, a story of rural Negro life. The following is a review of that play from one of the N. Y. papers: The wonderful encouragement given Negro amateur theatrical talent by the Finkelstein and Ruben houses in the Northwest is to be commended. Ray Whiting, now on a tour of the Pantages circuit, got his start at the State. Out in Hollywood Negro actors are slowly gaining the recognition due them. James Lowe has the title role in the Universal production of "Uncle Tom's Cabin." Sam Baker has the title role in the "Missing Link," starring Syd Chaplin, brother of the much married and divorced Charley. girls can do. Raymond Cannon, 3400 Oakland Ave., National President of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, has an interesting article in the June "Messenger" on Fraternities as a benefit to the race. It is a counter attack upon the attitude of P. P. Ivy toward fraternities. Aside from being national president of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Mr. Cannon is very active in Minneapolis politics in spite of the fact that he is also successfully engaged in business. Mr. Cannon has a large well-equipped drug store on Plymouth Ave. He is one of our most progressive Minnesotans. Colored folk who pay sixty-five cents per month for the white dailies, moan about having once subscribed for three months for a race newspaper that failed. They willingly pay $7.80 a year for enterprises that employ practically no Negroes. But holler loud and long when they happen to invest from 75c to $2.00 in Negro enterprise and effort and lose a month or two of service because the enterprise fails usually on account of lack of support. That's a brother for you! It will pay you to ask your grocer, butcher, clothier and coal man, too, if he advertises in your papers. If he doesn't he little appreciates your patronage; your boys and girls have to live, too! JAMAICA N. A. A. C. P. PROTESTS KLAN MARCH IN MEMORIAL DAY PARADE New York, May 27.—The Jamaica, Long Island, Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has added its protest to those of the Knights of Columbus and the American Legion, against the permission accorded the Ku Klux Klan to march unmasked in the local Memorial Day parade. The letter of the Jamaica N. A. A. C. P., to Adolph Herzog, Chairman of the Parade Committee, asks that the permission accorded the Klan to take part in the parade, be revoked. The letter is signed by C. M. Reid, President, and Frank M. Turner, Secretary of the TWIN CITY HERALD MICHIGAN ANTI-INTERMARRIAGE BILL "QUIETLY EXPIRED" N. A. A. C. P. TOLD New York, May 27.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, has received a letter from H. A. Lett, Deputy Director of the State Department of Labor and Industry, stating that the Michigan Anti-Intermarriage Bill "expired quietly and painlessly on the evening of May 13th, at which time the Michigan State Legislature adjourned." Mr. Lett's letter to the N. A. A. C. P. continues as follows: "This Bill was introduced in the early days of the session and throughout the entire Legislative period, even until the last week, petitions were being read in both Houses urging the passage of this Bill. The fact that these petitions invariably hailed from Klan infested districts, is to be expected. "The Judicial Committee of the Senate, however, in whose hand this Bill reposed was composed of some very fair-minded men. This is particularly true of the Chairman, Mr. Condon, and through their efforts the measure was successfully pigeonholed. "It is particularly pleasing to me to note the wonderful co-operation that was given by N. A. A. C. P. officials throughout the State and the quiet efficient way in which they did their part. I believe that the effort and the result should be an objectesson for others placed in a similar position." For advertising, subscriptions and news—Marvin R. Shivers, 668 Anthony Ave. Dale 3492.
