DIR. THURMAN SEES DANGER
OF CT ASS DISTINCTIONS
AMONG AMERICAN NEGROES

this condition offers to the Ameri-
can Negro, DR.. Thurman said {:
What we need to do is to under
stand what is happening in our
culture, and what will happen if
preference is given to persons of
mixed blood. We must think of this
until we create an insight that will
enable us to handle the problem so
that we shall not be destroyed"
AS another way out for the
American Negro, DR.. Thurman urg-
ed him to spread himself all over
the world, and to be whenever he
goes a living refutation of all the
lies that have been spread about
him. If this were done, he declar-
ed, the unfair barriers that have
been raised would not be possible
and the distortions Of the truth
about the race would in time be
ended

PROGRESS |SSEEN
IN BUILDING ART
Excess Is Giving Way to
Common Sense, Archi-
tect Says.

The battle of architectural styles
Is over and the result Is a draw, &C.
cording to Louis La Beaume, vice
president of the American Institute of
Architects. The modernists are re-
treating from their extreme position,
he says. Likewise, the traditionalists
are moving ahead. Beauty is as avidly
sought as comfort, he finds.
EXCESS is giving way to common
sense" La Beaume points out. 1.-THE
architect Of today realizes, as perhaps
never before. the necessity Of fresher
and less traditional approach to his
problem. Economic forces, no less
than esthetic ideals, have always af-
fected the course of design. Such
forces must inevitably have their
effect on what Is called style of archi-
lecture. Certain elements and phrases
in architectural vocabulary are grad
ually being stuffed off and new words
and phrases are being coined.
During the past five years or more
the architectural profession has been
busy, not in the practice of architec-
ture, but in the discussion of architec-
tural theories. Heated verbal engage
ments have taken place between the
proponents of tradition and the
apostles of progress. Both sides have
often been eloquent, and sometimes
logical.
There is a vast difference, how
ever, between verbal eloquency and
architectural eloquence, and archi-
tects must, in the final analysis, be
judged by their deeds, rather than
by their words. Now that the fury
of the discussion seems to be abating
we may take advantage of the breath
ing spell and attempt to appraise the
net results of the controversy.
If the functionalists have over
stated their case, as must be soberly
admitted, they have at least per-
formed a useful service in calling at
tention to the need for simplification
and for clean, outright architectural
statement. Material functionalism as
the sole attribute of architectural de-
sign is an absurdity, for architecture
remains an art founded on use, but
evoking response from the spirit
which hungers just as avidly for beauty
as it does for comfort"

Summer and source of JOY. too, when
the exquisite jewel of the tropics
comes to bury its head In the deep
chalice of the flower.
The trumpet flower may have had
to blow her own horn" in the very
early days of her existence. Gradually
it became family tradition, and
though not quite so brilliantly colored
in some Of the States in which she
grows, there are times she flaunts her
colors so that you can see them from
a long distance.
OF course any spirit as dominant as
the trumpet flower routs out the 'timid
soul" Where she establishes residence
the weaker brethren naturally fade
away.
AS rule, you will find Madam
Trumpet Vine on the edge of woods,
where rich, moist soil provides nour-
