Companionate Marriage

Our smart white people are de-
batting "companionate marriage"
Further down the road your smart
men will take up the matter. Our
white people don't leave you Tar be-
hind.
A few days ago Judge Ben Lind
sey and Rabbi Wise had 1t out in
New York, the Judge saying such a
marriage would be all right, while
the rabbi, having in mind the exper-
fence of his forefathers with the la
dies, said 1t would never do.
At this writing, this humble writ
er is trying to reach Chicago in
time to listen to Judge Lindsey and
DR.. NJ. S. Taylor debate in Orchestra
Hall. Clarence Darrow will preside
at the Chicago meeting of these in
tellectual giants.
Gentlemen who know more about
"companionate marriage" than any
body else are quiet, saying among
themselves, Nothing hurts q duck
but his bill"
Look around and you will see
about 100000 people, all Ameri-
cans, descendants of "companionate
marriages" at time when the la
dies had to be companions" of gen.
tlemen or be dashed and sold down
the river" Senators might debate
that.
Our white people are interesting,
usually far in front, as the saying
goes; but on this marriage question
they are late and dull.
Think; by such learn to match
words with wit.

''New Negro
White or Black ?

Continued from Page u
vitz found that the average colored
American is I'LL centimeters tall.
White Americans are 174.3 cent?
meters tall and West Africans av-
erage about 169 centimeters tall.
He also found that the sitting
height CT the Africans is shorter
than that of the European white
man, which means that the legs OF
the Negro are longer.
Measuring the lip thickness, Prof.
Herskovitz found that the thickness
of the African lip is 23.9 millime-
tiers; the whites, Is, and the Amer
lean Negro between 21,9 and 22.5.
so Per Cent of Mixed Blood
Contradicting the census reports
of 1920, which declared that 10 per
cent of American Negroes are mu.
lattoes or mixed and that the rest
are pure Negro, Pref Herskovitz' $
figures show that only 20 per cent
of the men from whom he had OBJ
tanned information are without mix.
ture and that the other so per cent
are of mixed blood.
Howard University students, he
found, were lighter than New York
school children.
According to Prof. Herskovitz, we
should not think of the American
Negro as an African type in which
there has been mixed small
amount of white blood, a mixture
which yet is continuing and that
will continue long enough finally
to achieve the absorption of the Ne.
gro into the white population.
His view is that we must think
of this new Negro as stabilized
type in between the African and
white American who has solved the
business of living in the United
States and who will press on in the
American community as a full
fledged member of II.
