Borah is regarded as one of the
greatest constitutional lawyers in
America, but, eddy enough, he has
been one of the most powerful en-
emies of political square deal for
the Negro. He has expressed the be-
lief publicly that the Negro was en-
franchised too soon, and has given
aid and comfort to southerners who
have sought to justify the south's vio-
lation of the Negroes citizenship
rights. On the other hand:
He is one of the great protagonists
of the prohibition amendment to the
constitution and has fought against
its notification in any form.
Thus the possibility of his appoint
ment to the supreme court is fraught
with extreme danger to the Negroes
citizenship.

One of the causes for the high
disparity of figures between white
girls and colored girls was given as
the ability of white girls who are ac-
costed by police to produce an al
ibi; they show that they have job.
Or else, instead of walking the
streets, these white girls work on
what is known as Call" thereby
keeping out of the eyes of the police.
In addition to these causes, it was
also brought out that police are more
active in breaking in residences of
colored neighborhoods than they are
in white.
Two police sergeants who have
worked in the colored district claimed
that the high percentage of immor-
atty among colored girls is in part
due to the lack of gainful employ
ment and that the girls are encour-
aged to barter themselves away by
enterprising landladies and men who
live off their earnings.
Capt. George P. O'Connor of the

SENATOR BoRAH POSSIBLE
SUPREME COURT CHOICE

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. IA. N. P.)
.-Colored opponents of Governor AL
Smith in the recent presidential cam
paign who were against the New
York democratic executive because
of the possibility, in the event of his
election, that he might appoint dem
ocratic and prejudiced judges to the
United States Supreme Court, are
given something to think about by
dispatches from Washington which
indicate that Senator William E.
Borah, republican from Idaho, is be-
ing considered unofficially as a pos
sible appointee to the chief justice
ship of that court.
1t is pointed out by those who dis
cuss this question that Hoover, as
president, will find himself indebted
to the Idaho orator. During the cam
paign, Borah was the only one of the
so-called republican irreconcilables,
who took a positive stand and rem
dered yeoman service for the repub-
lican candidate. 1t was Borah who
set out upon the trail of AL Smith
when there seemed to, be no one else
to do the job and gave the democrat
ic candidate as good as he received,
or better.
For this service he must be re-
warded, the political spectators ar
que. They see no proper place for
him except in the cabinet or on the
supreme court bench. If he went
into the cabinet, it would be as sec
rotary of state, but there are many
persons who don't believe that Borah,
in his superior attitude, would ac-
cept that position. AS chairman of

SIGHTSEEING IN SOUTH
AMERICA
~ W;lI;. P;~L.r.

We wish to suggest some things
which we hope the "official guides"
in South America will not fail to
point out to the North Americans
who are to visit them in the entour-
age of Mr.. Herbert Hoover.
They need not point out any of
their skyscrapers, for they have none
that can vie with the Woolworth
building, nor any of their banks, for
they cannot compete with Wall
street, nor any of their criminals, for
they have none to equal those of Chi
cago. Let them point out
That in South America men of any
race and color can hold any office
they are able to hold.
That the absence of race discri-
limitations in civil privileges have
done no harm to anybody.
That children in public schools,
without color lines, do not grow up
into enmity but to friendship.
That lynching, which is one of the
indispensable industries of MISSISSIPPI
pi, is found to be absolutely needless
in Brazil, which has cities with larger
Negro populations than any city of
Mississippi.
That race prejudice is not natural
and instructive" but an abnormality
and misfit in civilization.
That Nordics, while they may be
uesful, are not at all necessary for
the continued operation of the solar
system.
You cannot astonish US materially,
Miss South America, but show our
skepticism some of the doubted won
ders of your soul.

student body of A. and T. college
last night on the needs of prepare

The speaker emphasized the need
for preparation because the cross

world, is the cross beam of the mas
sive structure which grew out of the
preparation of the engineer who de-
signed it. The increasing progress of
the world today increases the prob

The why" Of A
Commercial Club

why should | join the CONNER
cial club? Why should l write a
check for that organization? What
will I get out of it?"
From the civic standpoint, no
man who is worthwhile to the
community desires a free ride. He
is more likely to reach for the
luncheon check than to let the
other chap grab it. When an ex-
pense is incurred by his group, he
wants to pay his share.
The club is working for the gen
eral advancement of the city and
district and it is obvious that
every step that helps the city
helps the business and salaried
men of that city.
There is always one criticism of
every organization with a numer-
Gus membership-that is run by
a little clique That usually is
true-because only a small group
of members are willing to give the
time and study and energy to con-
duct the affairs of the organiza-
ton. They would very gladly pass
a share of the work to others, if
these others could be found. You
will find, in every such organiza-
ton, that these unpaid hard
workers put a lot more into their
jobs than they get out of them.
Their only reward is the con-
seriousness of having served their
organization and their city.
But because a large proportion
of club members content them
selves with paying their dues and
rarely interest themselves in per-
sonal work for the club, they are
a no less valuable assets. Their
personal service and interest will
be welcomed; there is always
work for them to do if they will
accept it but in any event they !
may feel assured that they are
doing their share. For the club
needs an income to carry on its
work; it could use twice it's pre-
sent funds to excellent advantage.
Lately quite a few salaried men
have called at the club office and
suggested that in the future an
effort be made to enroll in the
membership people not in bust
ness for themselves but who new
ertheless have the city's interest
1t heart. AS one individual said
The Commercial club is the au-
-omobile of the city's industry

THE NEW

If ever there was a time when
there was a call for moral leader
ship it is now
Fortunately. a great national
leader is here, ready to face the
responsibilities of the hour. At
Palo Alto in the presence of a vast
audience. the standard bearer of
the Republican party raised his
banner and defined moral, spirit
ual and political leadership. In ac-
cepting the nomination he trans
fused into the veins of the nation
a stimulating tonic of civic right
eousness bound to strengthen
heart beats of an awakened peo-
pie, a mighty army when organic
ed to fight in a moral cause.
Herbert Hoover, in accepting
that leadership, gave his word to
the people in the few significant
sentences which follow:
Economic advancement is not
an end in itself. Successful dem
ocracy rests wholly upon the NOR
al and spiritual equality of it's
people. Our growth in spiritual
achievements must keep pace with
or growth in physical accomplish
ments. Material prosperity and
moral progress must march to-
if we would make the
States that commonwealth
10 grandly conceived by its foun-
ers. Our government, to match
le expectations of our people, !
lust have constant regard for
hose human values that give dig
ity and nobility to life."-Ex.

JORDAN ON HOOVER
Aberdeen (Wash.) World

No man could have a better re
commentator for the presidency
than that which David Starr Jor
dan. veteran educator and chan
cellor emeritus of Stanford uni
versity. has given Mr.. Hoover. DR..
Jordan knows all about Hoover,
who is a Stanford alumnus. He
has never made a serious mistake
in business nor in any other mat
ter. and the people of the United
States can safely trust him." says
DR.. Jordan. Surely. it is a great
thing to say of a man that "he has
never made a serious mistake" in
anything. 1t is especially so,
when the words come from a man
of DR.. Jordan's standing and intel
1igence.
DR.. Jordan lists a variety of rea-
sons in behalf of Mr.. Hoover. He
is the man best fitted for the
presidency" He is a great bust
ness organizer. He has never fail
ed in anything he has undertaken.
He is unselfishly devoted to the
public service and humanitarian
work. He KNOWS politics as thor
oughly as any man living, at its
best. and at its worst, so well, in ;
deed, that nothing could induce
him to enter into any of the antics :
or i~ntrigues that go by that il,
name" He knows conditions in
this country. but he also knows =
world conditions. He has a great =
advantage there, because while
some know conditions both in this
country and in one or two other
countries, Mr.. Hoover is %acquaint- q
ed with all countries. Therefore, F
he would have a continuous and w
consistent foreign, policy" He is s
4 man without Illusions who cul- 10
.ivates no shams." Compared sr
with other possible candidates II
Hoover is more unselfish and self q,
contained than any other" He is II
slow to anger" and "can be ST r.
when speech serves no use q,
III purpose" His First instinct is tq
or truth and fair play rather than ia
.tatutes or treaties" He is young, &c
n perfect health and possesses
sustained nerve. a quality rarely e
possessed by the ordinary political hi
eader." al
This is high praise indeed. Here pl
re all the qualifications the u hi
nv can require in a president. be
hey are. moreover, the qualifica- 81
ions the people should demand in tn
he head of the nation. They
would get in Hoover a builder. an SC
rg~aniZer, q practical idealist, a ve
lear thinker, a courageous. hon tn
man. There is nothing that re
las been urged against him thus he
ar worthy of serious consider ST
tiOn. The Republican party will TO
make a serious mistake if it pass Ct
$ him by for a lesser candidate. do
