LAMK|NS' SCHOOL
HASNEW WQUARTERS.
8O-Year-0Id Pastor to Train
CoIored Youths at O
Street Location.

The Rev. S. Geriah Lamkins, 80,
pastor Of the Mckinley Memorial Bap-
tist Church, has announced the pur-
chase Of property at 1909 o street NV
for the new location of the industrial
training school for colored boys and
girls. Mr.. LalnkinS has been closely
identified with the non-sectarian Ma
tional Training and Industrial Insti-
tute for more than 35 years. The in
stitute has been located in Tuxedo,
Prince Georges County, Md, for a
number of years and is sometimes
known as the Tuxedo Industrial In
stitute.
Mr.. Lamkins, who has lived in the
District for more than so years and
Is the second oldest pastor in WASH
ington, has been president of the
training school since its incorporation
In June, 1908. The school, to be
known as the Missionary Bible Train
ing and Industrial Institute, has
trained hundreds of young colored boys
and girls in industrial arts since it's
founding. This week Mr.. Lamkins
secured title to the new property IN
the Northwest section and prepara-
tionS will be made to continue opera
tions in the new location.
Born of Slave Parents.
Mr.. Lamkins was born in Roanoke,
Va, in 1857 of slave parents, but was
able to attend Howard University in
Washington with the help of Charles
Siedler, former Mayor of Jersey City.
MIR. Lamkins used to borrow books
from friend in Roanoke and was
encouraged by him to continue his
studies. He recalls that the Roanoke
friend asked him if he had saved any
money to 60 to school. Il tcld him
I'd saved ST." Mr.. Lamkins said
Mr.. Siedler's interest was aroused
through a letter from Mr.. Lamkins'
friend and the former mayor financed
the boys education at Howard Uni
versity and the student graduated with
honors in 1885.
Aided by Gifts.
The late Gen. John 3. Henderson,
former Senator from Missouri. who in
troduced the thirteenth amendment
abolishing slavery, into Congress, con-
tributed the first $1,000 toward the
establishment of the training school
in 1903. Friendship with many dis
tinguished citizens enabled Mr.. LAM
kins to organize the industrial insti-
tute. Among those whose contribu-
tions aided the early start of the
training school were the late Admiral
Schley, the late Admiral Cary T. Gray
son, Thomas Fortune Ryan and many
others. Mr.. Lamkins has in his pos
session many old letters from dis
tinguished citizens commencing his
efforts in the establishment of the
institute. Booker T. Washington
evinced special interest in the organi-
Eation, Mr. LamkinS said.
The new school site on o street is
improved by an 11-room house and
a one-story brick building to be con-
verted for school use. The Office for
enrolment will be located temporarily

1t is also noted that the great ma
jority of the workers are not in any
kind of organization, but that the
more energetic part of the industrial
workers "have organized themselves
in their own, proper trade unions, of
which the central body is the National
Trade Union Centre"
The trade unions have therefore no
objection to raise to the better organ
ization of the workers. Modification
of the Trade Union Act and the Act
on legal status in this direction would
certainly represent great step for
ward towards trade union contraliza-
ton provided that the freedom of as
sociation guaranteed in the Constitu-
tion were at the same time respected" +"
In a word, the trade unions give
such serious attention to the Govern
ment's declaration that the Govern
ment--which of course meant some
thing quite different and only wanted
to organize the workers for other pur-
poses-had to speak more clearly.
National Trade Union Centre
Outlawed
Now the cat is completely out Of the
bag. The modification" of the Trade
Union Act referred to in July is mere
ly to be the abolition of the Trade
Unions and of their National Centre!
The rest of the program would then
be carried out on the Italian or Ger
man model-formation of corpora
tions" (Which are neither corpora
tions nor anything else), the organ
ization of Strength Through JOY"
(Which in Rumania is to be known as
"Work and Well-being"), the workers
to be deprived of any voice of their
own, to be prohibited from member
ship in any international organiza-
tions, etc.
The Trade Unions have wasted no
time in replying. A resolution adopt
ed at Congress held in Cluj states
that "a Trade Union Movement is only
possible if the principles of freedom
of association are maintained, especial
ly when these principles are incorpor-
ated in the Constitution"
The last word has not yet been said.
There are countries where the tradi-
tions Of freedom are stronger than the
Government. This applies particular
ly to countries which owe their origin
and existence to those very liberties
which they now want to suppress. The
Government of Rumania could obtain
some very instructive information
from certain neighboring countries
about this curious truth and could per-
haps at the same time learn useful
lesson.
