Hats Off to Underhill

Take your hat off to the Rev. Irv-
ing Underhll, black Presbyterian
missionary, who protested effectively
but vainly when the General Assemb-
" of his church, meeting in Denver,
Colorado. voted to go to Fort Worth,
Texas, for the next session.
The Rev. Mr.. Underhill told his
fellow white delegates that a Negro
cannot be man in Texas, and asked
that the 1888 conference seat be
moved out of the land of race hate.
But Presbyterians will go to Fort
Worth, Texas, next year.
Compare the white Presbyterians'
action with that of white Methodist
Episcopalians who voted last month
never to hold general conference
in city where any delegates would
suffer Jim crow.
And when YOU have done that, ask
yourself which denomination, NJ. f..
or Presbyterian believes in the sec
ond great commandment of Glove thy
neighbor as myself"

Her "Obedient Servant

One of the things schools and
clubs can do about this George Wash
ington Bicentennial, is to give play
This is the view of Mary White
Oyington, treasurer of the National
Association for the Advancement of
Colored People, and New Yorker,
who has Just published "Phillis
Wheatley," a short one-act drama.
To Others, General George was
first in peace, first in battle, a lead
er, whom slave and free must obey,
but to Miss Phillis. the black poetess,
he was her "obedient servant" as he
signed himself to letter thanking
her for her poem.
Phillis Wheatley makes children
realize that we had part in the
early history OF our land. An adj
dition to this play, ought, by
stretch Of the imagination, to find a
way to bring in Salem Poor and
Crispus Attacks. As it is, this one
act play is a welcome addition to
our small stock of Revolutionary
War literature.

"Hooey" Hoover

President Hoover, prevented by
the press of public duties" from being
present at the recent annual CON
ference of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie, sent message Of greetings to
the conference, in which he expressed
his earnest hope that its delibera-
tions may bear fruit in the well be-
ing and advancement of the colored
race in our country"
That type of expression might be
termed 'palaver" in Africa. In the
United States we call it "soft soap"
and more outspoken New York would
plainly term it "hooey."
1t is a fact well known and for
three years entirely obvious that the
President stands for everything
which the N.A.A.C.P. opposes. In
listing the worst enemies of Negro
humanity Gin our country" the MA.
A.C.P., might conceivably start off
with the occupant of the White
House.
It is president Hoover who nom
mated Judge Parker to the Supreme
Court, and even now has another
anti-Negro candidate, b. b. Mont
gomery, up for marshal in southern
Mississippi.
Mr. Hoover is Grand Kleagle or
Dragon Of the Lily-Whites, and as
sistant gazabo of those who believe
in segregation in government depart
ments under the civil service. Ma.
rines are still in Haiti and Nicara-
qua.
Next week, Mr.. Hoover will make
the graduation address at Howard
University. His name does not ap-
pear on the commencement notices.
but the grapevine telegraph reports
that he has accepted.
What possible statement can the
President of the United States make
after three years Of hostility. that is
Of value either to us or the nation.
We fear that he can say little.

Women Gadabots

Mrs. Putnam crossed the Atlantic
enroute to Paris and landed on the
mud flats of Ireland. But, she got
across. We wonder, can women really
find satisfaction and an eased CON
science in gadding around the world
and making and breaking records
while their husbands are left behind
to make their own homes and happi-
ness or have others do it for them?
But, what matters a husbands hap
piness and comfort as compared to
a wife's ambition for notoriety? " G.
men who wish to rival men in
achievement should remain single I'M
Ill their dreams come true.

"It's Indecent"

Bright hued pajamas for both men
and women in such shades as pink,
pea green, lavendar and robins egg
blue, are correct garb for burials,
funeral directors of Illinois decided
last week.
The average man having seen wo-
men wear paiamas on the beach and
probable, too, at exclusive dances,
will not be much surprised that they
are now adopted for shrouds.
But wonder what John Smith, who
never wore anything in his life but
an old-fashioned night shirt, will
think when he finds himself standing
before st. Peter in robins egg blue
silk pajamas.

ing independence of party affilia-

The planks, under the general
head of Race Relations, with an ad-
dendum containing general social leg

Association, are as follows:
Race Relations
Recognizing the existence of
world crisis in which all races and
groups of mankind must cooperate
to preserve civilization, the Repub-
lican Party herewith declares itself
and pledges the Party against dis
elimination by reason of race, creed
or color, as being outdated, barbar-
Gus, unscientific and un-Ameriean.
TO Negro citizens the party pledges
its opposition to the Lily White"
movement and offers full and I'M
trammelled participation in party
councils, conventions, primary cleo
tions and all phases of party activity
without discrimination of race or
color.
The Party will oppose all diserim-
nation against Negroes in employ

jects financed wholly or in part by
federal funds; in the administration
OF unemployment relief, whether fl
nanced by federal appropriations or
through local funds. And the party
will favor the Identification of civil
service applicants by finger printing
rather than by the photograph sys-
tenn under which Negroes are now
Disseminated against.
The party pledges itself to bring
about an end to the barbarous crime
of lynching whereby law is dethron-
ed and the mob is made judge and
executioner, and to enact federal
law for this purpose.
The Party pledges itself to the
complete restoration of the indepen-
dence of Haiti, including the with
drawal of United States armed fore
es now stationed there and restora-
ton of full financial autonomy to
the Haitian republic; to oppose the
control of Hawaii by the Navy or
other government agency which
would deprive the Hawaians of self
government; and to leave the Re-
public of Liberia full freedom in
working out its problems.
The Party further pledges itself
to see to it that federal funds ap-

Getting Comfortable

Because large numbers of both

nudism is spreading over the country.
Dir. Lander Lorand, expressing his
views before the American Psychi-
atric Association in New York re.
Gently, said both sexes derive a
pleasure out of showing their bodies
and if lacking the courage to go
into nudist cult, the abbreviated
bathing suit offers them a solution.

Where's Our Mussolini?

In sounding a call for a liberal
third party, DR.. Nicholas Murray
Butler, president of Columbia Uni
versity, last week remarked that the
nationwide Democratic party of JEFF
ferson is dead and so is the nation
wide Republican party Of Abraham
Lincoln.
DR.. Buffers observation appears
late in view of the fact that the Re
publican party of Lincoln expired
with Roosevelt. quite thirty years
ago, and Jefferson's views on hui
manity, freedom and the rights of
minorities never did become popular
with the party he founded over one
hundred years ago.
DR.. Butler is right. however, when
he suggests that a real leader would
sweep our present day diseredited
national political machinery into a
dust bin.

A., we trust he viii soon stand forth

Price Drops to Lowest Point in
Generation Before Buy

Chicago, May 5.-,P)-Corn rallied,
and scored advances Thursday after
tumbling to the lowest price level in
a generation.
Leading specialists said in connec-
ton with the rally that corn was be-
ginning to attract speculative atten-
ton and was now displaying stub
bornness. Stocks. wheat and what
have-you had been sold against 1t,
but the falling-off in corn receipts
and constantly improving cash de-
mand was giving the corn market a
better foundation than had been seen
for months.
In the late dealings, wheat, rye and
oats recovered with corn and as re-

Bears in wheat put stress on strik-

selling. Word of dust storms in parts

tive to purchase and so did advices

New York, May 5.-(P)-Financial
markets steadied somewhat Thursday,

Stocks slumped rather sharply in
the first hour, only to recover. BY
early afternoon extreme losses of to
3 points were largely recovered. Bonds
were still under pressure here and
there but U. S. Governments came
back strongly after Wednesdays set
back. There was still considerable
pressure on the dollar in foreign ex-
change markets but it showed some
further signs of lifting.
The stock market met support at
approximately the low levels of the
previous session. After sagging about
to 3 points in the first hour, the fol-
