The Y. M. c. (?) A.

Francis Stuart Harmon, white. n
native of Mississippi and a graduate
of Virginia and Harvard Universe
ties has succeeded DR.. R. R. Mott as
general secretary and chief of the
national Y. M. c. A. body.
1t was time for DR.. Mott to quit.
For forty-four years he has been in
the service and it has need of the
younger shoulders to bear its bur
dens.
Europe and Asia, like many a col
ored American, have discovered that
the CO. in the associations name
stands for Christian, and the amount
of Christianity in each association
depends upon the local community
in which it is located, for the Y. M.
c. A. principle is to build up an in
stitution and then turn it over to
local control.
Colored people, therefore. found
all of the taboos in this Christian
association which they already knew
existed in Rotary, Kiwanis, golf and
automobile clubs which never made
any pretense of being Christian.
DR.. Motifs failure to get Christian
ity into the association may not dis
courage Mr.. Harmon, even though

Black Sir Phipps

The National Republic, official pa
triotic and ballyhoo organ of the Re-
publican party, in a feature article
recently, gave historical account
of Sir William Phipps, pioneer
treasure seeker and first royal gov
ernor of Massachusetts, Bay Colony.
Sir William, youngest and smart
est of rs children, was born on a
plantation in Maine. His parents
were indentured servants, that is
slaves. He became, a shipyard work
er, a ship captain, and eventually
headed an expedition which in 1886
recovered $1,5O0,O00 from a private
vessel sunk off the shore of Haiti.
He declined to turn pirate and take
the treasure for himself and crew,
and landed his treasure in England
for which he received an award of
$4,000 and the title of England
most honest citizen.
The Republic quotes Hawthorne's
description of Sir William as a man
whose face has "been roughened by
northern tempests and blackened by
the burning sun of the West Indies. !"
In all of this Republics readers
would never suspect that Sir William
was colored, and that the blackness
of his face was due to the same
"West Indian" sunshine that has
blackened the faces of 10000, 900
colored Americans.
No, National Republic never
thought of that.

Congress Gets Bill
To Probe University

WASHINGTON. = A resolution
calling for a sweeping investigation
of Howard University was introduced
in the House Wednesday, by Repre-
sentative Robert S. Hall Democrat,
Miss.). The resolution directed an
inquiry by the subcommittee of the
House Appropriations Committee,
which has charge of the Interior De-
partment Appropriations
The three specific items to be in
vestigated are:
/. The continuous state of educa-
tional turmoil and unrest at Howard
University during the past three or
more years.
2. The expenditure of public funds
of the University by DIR. Mordecai
W. Johnson, president, and the board
of trustees.
3. Alleged payroll padding at the
university and the position of the
president in connection with the
case.

Propose Jim Crow
Veteran Hospital
. Continued from Page y

s(Contmued from rage II
Thomas Taylor, legislative represen-
tative of the American Legion, with
offices in the Bond Building, Wash
ington, D. G.
An attempt is made by Mr.. Taylor
to put the proposed iim-crowing of
Negro veterans in the North on
high plane and to base it on a gen.
uine interest of the American Legion
in the welfare of their Negro COM
rades, in the following paragraph
from his communication:
THE American Legion has con-
tended for some time that the hos
pital facilities throughout the coun-
try for colored veterans are wholly
inadequate. At the present time they
are hospitalized in Naval hospitals,
Army hospitals, Marine hospitals
under the U. S. Public Health Ser
vice and various of the Veterans
Administration hospitals"
Why this policy of non-segrega-
ton of those who offered their all
for their native land should not be
continued, and Negro veterans adj
mitted on equal terms to all hospitals
set aside for the care of veterans
is not touched upon by Col. Taylor,
except indefinitely in this manifestly
hostile conclusion of his letter:
'If the colored veterans in the
North feel that they are entitled to
hospital for their own use, we see
no reason why anybody should be
opposed to their wishes being full
filled
Senator Reed, however, seems to
think that it is somebody's business,
as his quoted reference to the "mo-
tives" back of the introduction of
the bill indicates.
Surprise was expressed that SEN
ator Reed would introduce a bill of
this type, when couple of years
ago he declined to introduce a bill
asking for a monument to colored
veterans, giving as his reason that
he did not believe colored people
wanted to be considered as separ-
ate unit, but preferred being includ-
ed as an integral part of the coun-
try's population.
