I am going to take the liberty of
saying some of the things l know; and
which the public should know; but
which the officers and pioneer men,
bers of your organization seem to
have been too busy or too modest to
have told. 1t took lot of courage for
few scattered industrial workers
with Independent commercial business
to try to create trade body ten years
ago. And, it took lot of stick-to-it-
iveness to persist in the face of racial
and craft indifference to carry on un-
til the present day interest and men,
bership had been accomplished.
Your oranization was among the
first to recognize that in Union there
is strength: That the obstacles to sue
cessful business enterprise could best
be met and overcome by joint effort:
That adequate training is essential to
success: That keeping abreast of the
times and with modern business prac-
tees and trade methods is necessary:
That advertising is business asset:
That trade journal is the necessity
of every intelligent business owner or
operator.
While the public was wondering a
bout the gathering of modest little
group of tradesfolks somewhere every
year. the government, through the
United States Department of Com
merce, the Business men and women of
the service, has ben recognizing the
body for what it really was and is, an

Stirring Session Of National Assn Negro Talors Held Here
Cary Wheaton, Local Tailor Elected
President: ]. |. Loving J., Vice Pres.

The National Association of Negro
tailorS, designers, dressmakers and
cleaners held their 10th annual meet
here, August 4-6 Unprecedented interest
marked each session which was largely
attended by delegates from the princi-
pal cities of the north, south and the
Atlantic seaboard. The principal adj
dress was delivered by the Hon. James
A. Jaskson, Business Specialist of the
United States Department of Com
merce, who was loud in his praise fol-
the foresight and perseverance of the
pioneer members of the association.
The more than thirty delegates
who were in attendance from doz-
en- different states were high in
their praise for the local committee
for the manner in which the con-
vention was handled. The demon
STATIONS and discussions were
such as to be of definite value to
those engaged in any of the needle
trades as we'll as in cleaning and
dyeing garments.
This years Fashion Show, which
is the greatest feature of each con-
vention was unquestionably voted
the best one ever held. Mesdames
Jones and Clark of Philadelpa;a,
National Show directors deserve
great credit for the manner in which
they put over this feature. The To-
cal directors, Mrs. A. L. Chairman
and Mrs. Ella Carter covered them
selves with honor along with the
national officers.
Bringing to a close the most help
full convention in its history, the

ton of Richmond, National Presi-
dent for the coming year, and Bos-
ton was selected as the next meet
ing place. A second Richmonder was
IGNORED when J. L. Loving was
Gle ted vice-president.
The entertainment features han
died by Ropall Pollard and his
committee added much to the plea
p sure of the delegates. The reception
at Market Inn on Tuesday night
and the ball at the WINS. Lodge
home on Thursday night will linger
long in the memory of those in at
tendance.
Once again Richmond's hospitality
has indelibly impressed itself upon
it's visitors and the local committee
wishes to thank most sincerely
those organizations and individuals
who gave so generously of their
money and time towards making
this convention what it has been
proclaimed "the best in the history

Various Phases Of Negro Education Discussed During
Sessions Of Nat. Assn. Of Teachers In Cd0rtd SChO0S

president of Southern University at
Baton Rouge, La, who expressed
the wish that the liberal attitude OF
the state of Virginia toward the edu-
cation of Negro children might be ex-
tended to include all of the Southern
states. The first session was pre-
sided over by President John M. Gan
dy of Va. State College, who pre-
scented DR.. Mordecai W. Johnson as
president of the Association.
An Introductory address indicating
the scope and Importance of factual
and critical survey was made by Leo
M. Favrot, field agent, General Edu-
cation Board of New York, in which
he gave the eresults of a compare
tive study of the maximum and mini
mum salary paid Negro and white
teachers in the various Southern
states, showing that the Negro teach
ers of Maryland are paid more than
twice as much as those of the state
of Georgia.
Dr.. Monroe N. Work director,
Records and Research Department,
Tuskegee Institute, Ala, contrasted
this discrepancy between white and
,olored schools of the present time
with that of fifty years ago, stating
that the difference was not near so
great formerly as now; that fifty
years ago Negro teachers received a
higher salary in South Carolina than
white teachers, while in West Vir-
ginio, Negro men teachers were
paid more than white men, and Negro
women received less than white woin-
teachers. "Of all states maintaining
eparate schools" said DR.. Work,
the District of Columbia and the
tate of West Virginia have facili-
les for white and colored children
that are more nearly equal.
The departmental sessions began
Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock with
the general theme, "The Present Sta
tus of Tax-Supported Schools for
Negroes in America" and were di-
vided in sections under the following
