NEGRO ORDER VICTOR
- IN SUIT BY SHRINERS
Other Suits Recalled

Other Suits Recalled
Washington, June 3.-The right of
Negroes of the Ancient Egyptian
Arabic Order of MOBILES of the Mystic
Shrine" to use the similar name and
the titles, emblems and regalia OF
the white Shriners was upheld to-
day by the Supreme Court.
The opinion, handed down by ,Asso-
ciate Justice Vandevanter, held that
the silence of white Shriners for
many years barred them from re-
straining the Negroes. The suit was
begun in 1918 in a Texas State court
by Shriners in Houston against the
local temple of the Negro order.
Texas Supreme Court Reversed
Inc Texas Supreme Court granted
an injunction. In reversing the judy
mert Justice Vandevanter said:
There is no evidence of fraudu-
lent intent on the part Of the Negro
order or of a purpose on its part to
induce any one, whether Mason or
non-Mason, to believe that it was the
white order or that they were parts
Of the same fraternity. On the con-
trary, it IS shown that the Negro
Order always held itself out as en-
TREY distinct from the white order,
and as open only to members Of the
negro Masonic fraternity. True,
there was much imitation, but this is
shown to nave been in the nature of
emulation rather than false pre-
tense"
Had knowledge
Pointing out that 1T is established
tina. from the beginning the white
order had knowledge of the exist
cree and Initiative acts and practices
of The Negro order" the opinion
says, the evidence Individually shows
that with such knowledge the white
order silently stood by for many
years while the negro order was con-
tinuing its initiative acts and prac-
tees. and was establishing new
lodges, charging its membership, ac-

WHITE LADIES TESTIFY

The case of Rose Leigh Anderson,
1909 North First Street, attracted
much attention. She was charged
with stealing a dress, valued at $40,
from the Kaufman Co.
No representative of the company
appeared and the case went over;
but two white ladies, for whom Rose
had worked, testified as to her good
character. One of them stated that
she had known her ever since she
was born. The one with whom she
stays now said that she was abso-
lutely honest, had no need to steal,
as she was saving and had money
when arrested. A white gentleman
who accompanied the ladies was
equally as positive. They told Judge
Haddon that they would return to
appear in her behalf at any time:
Their testimony created a profound

quiring real property in its corporate
name, and investing substantial sums
in the copied paraphernalia, regalis
and emblems.
at also is shown by the uncon-
tradicted testimony Of several wit.
nesses-one a life member of the
white order-that a large proportion
of the copied paraphernalia, regalia,
emblems and insignia used by the
Negro order, its lodges and members,
was purchased from or through mem
bers of the white order, and that in
one instance a lodge of that order,
preparatory to moving to new quar-
tiers, sold the paraphernalia and re-
gala used in the old quarters to a
lodge of the Negro order in the same
city"
Justice Van Devanter recalled
suits by white lodge in Georgia in
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1929-06-08

1914 and in Arkansas few years
later.
"But these objections came too
late" he said, "to overcome or weak
en- the force of the conduct of the
white order during the thirty years
preceding the earlier of the two
suits. After that period of inaction
and seeming acquiescence, it was too
late to resuscitate the original ex-
elusive right for which the white or
der is now contending. :,
"What we have said of the evidence
demonstrates, as we think, not. only
that there was obvious and long con
tinued laches on the part of the white
order, but also that the circumstances
were such that its laches barred it
from asserting an exclusive right, or
seeking equitable relief, as against
the Negro order"

UPHILL
ON EVOLUTION
Unfavorable Report
Made By Texas
House Group

AUSTIN, Jan. 24.-lP-Funda-
mentalists seeking an an~ti-evolution
bill stood beaten today in the first
move of the legislative session in
this direction. The Harper-Graves
measure taking the teaching of facts
contrary TO the book of Genesis a
misdemeanor, was reported ~unfavor-
ably by the house committee on
Jurisprudence last night.
The vote, taken at an executive
session, was eight 10 three against
the bill. Proponents Of the measure
are undecided whether II would be
brought to the floor on a minority
report.
Representative James W. Harper
of Mount Pleasant, pastor of a Bap-
fist church at the nearby town of
Talco, spoke in behalf Of the pro-
posed legislation.
Representative Harper said the
bill did not interfere with the teach
ing Of science. but declared il was
framed to prevent aFnostic college
professors from foisting their be-
liefs ION the plastic minds Of
youths"
An effort by Representative John
II. White of Berger to have the bill
approved by the committee so IL
might be decided before the entire
house was voted down at the COM
mittee hearing.

5P1-A conference with Dwight v.
Morrow, ambassador to Mexico, and
departure foz a three-day deep sea
fishing trip had been arranged for
President-elect Hoover today.
While the Morrow visit has been
described as a courtesy cali, there
seemed little doubt the ambassador
and Mr.. Hoover would discuss rela-
tions with Mexico in detail.
While Mr.. Morrow has been urged
for appointment as secretary of

indicated he does not regard the
cabinet post as important as the i'm
provement in relations between the
countries since the former banker
undertook the delicate diplomatic
mission below the Rio Grande.

leaders Of the opposition have said
no obstructionist tactics will be used
to block a final vote on the naval
program.
The senate adopted the deficiency
bill yesterday after it had settled
the tax refund question. The mea-
sure carried a SIS. O00, 900 item for
tax refunds, and Senator Mcclellan,
democrat. Tennessee. had offered as
an amendment a proposal for the
transfer Of the administration Of
tax refunds from the international
revenue to the board Of tax appeals.
He, however, substituted for this
proposal an amendment calling for
public hearings on all tax refunds
in excess OF $4,000 by a treasury
committee. and this was attached to
the measure.
Bill In Conference
The bill now has 20 20 back TO

Deficiency Act Out of
Way; Final Victory
For Ship Measure
Foretold by Hale

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.@lR=The
last Of president Coolidge's admins
t~ration measures, the naval con-
struction bill was the order OF bus
mess in the senate today.
Shunted aside by other legisla-
tion since before the Christmas re-
cess, the measure to authorize the
construction Of Is cruisers and n
aircraft carrier was taken up as a
result of the passage late yesterday
by the senate of the first deficiency
appropriation bill. The warship
program is confronted with stiff
opposition, but Chairman Hale of
the senate naval committee was con-
fident Of its passage.
It's legislative machinery
what impeded By the senate's recent
delay on pending measures. the house
again devoted its attention to minor
bills, sponsored mainly BY its pub
lie lands committee and affecting
for a large part western states.
However, the house ways and mean
committee had on its program a
problem of paramount interest-the
revision of the agricultural tariffs.
The farm duties which will be COM
piled following the committees
hearings may be enacted as 2 part
Of the tariff bill al the proposed
special session and are considered a
major agricultural relief measure.
Deficiency Bill Passes

expressed the belief several days
ago that il was being threatened by
a filibuster when several of its OPP
p~onents talked for hours on prohibit
