At Marias Fair

The Marias Fair at Shelby closed
last Saturday night with bang and
over $4,000 persons who paid ad-
missions to the fair this year are
looking forward to a bigger one in
1910.
Hundreds of exhibits were on
display in every department and
all were of superior quality. The
grandstand shows were the best OBJ
tainable and were enjoyed by all
who saw them. Attendance was I'M
doubtedly little smaller than it
should have been due to windy
weather but success of the fair is
indicated by some 10000 paid ad-
missions daily. Secretary Coover
and his staff are to be congratulate
ed on the manner in which the I'M

is no question as to the outcome
of the fair next year.

AGAIN FAIR" HARVARD

When Harvard adopted the "House
System" which was an imnortation
from England, the long-continued
democratic custom of allowing stu
oehts TO reside where they please was
interrupted. The new rules REQUIRED
all students to reside in the univer-
slty-owned dormitories. The color
question intruded. 1t was solemnlv
argued that enforced residence in the
dormltorles would deny white students
their freedom of choice in the matter
OF association with colored students. .
and therefore colored students were
politely exempted from the rules. The
decision at once evoked strong pro-
tests from several liberal-minded all
umni of prominence.
obviously, then, the recent lifting
OF the color ban represents no new adj
vance in the Harvard record II
simply means that Americas greatest
institution of learning has returned
to its traditional course. No doubt
1t is now abundantly clear that the
administrative alteration, induced
admittedly with believed-to-be-go good
intent albeit narrow, was humiliating.
and injurious to white and colored
students alike, and also inimical to the
democratic process. If a student
wasn't to be denied his freedom of
choice of association-usually casual
and informal in college life-equally
ne wasn't to be denied his freedom
to be a gentleman anywhere and
everywhere. 1t was not an issue in
volving the difficulty of choosing the
lesser of two evils. 1t was a plain
case of good and evil. And evil pre-
vailed in the decision which barred
residence to applicants merely because
OF their color. Thus, not only was in
tolerance condoned and bolstered with
authority, but snobbishness was made
compulsory. Education of that sort
is out of place in democracy. Aboli-
ton of the discrimination is a real
service to all Harvard men.

Extraordinary

On Monday evening, May %, Mrs.
Ada H. Battle, accomplished wife of
Rev. W. D. Battle, DID,, staged a most
remarkable pageant called "the way"
WAY of the Crosse in which fifty
young people of Columbus Avenue
A.M.E. Zion Church, cooperated and
achieved a monumental success. Mrs.
Battle is an expert along many lines
of Christian endeavor, but she is es-
pecially successful in the pageantry
which from time to time she puts on
for the financial help of the pastor and
church and the development of the
young people. This particular page
ant 1.-The Way, abounds in Japanese
Characters in costumes, and presents
various instructive features leading
toward climax showing Christ as the
Way, the Truth and the Life. All the
parts were well taken in a manner
difficult to excel. A wonderful impress
sion was made by the closing scene,
the human cross, in which the young
people were arranged so that they
were hidden behind an illuminated
cross, while the church choir sang
appropriate hymns. The pageant
pianist was Mrs. Cora Lloyd Arnold,
and Mrs. Nellie Jones Harris assisted
Mrs. Battle in the direction. Mrs.
Gertrude Woodhouse was wardrobe
mistress and among the so or more
participants were Mesdames Hayes

LOOKING AROUND

GIT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE"
By
FRANK R. CROSSWAITH

GIT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE" is
fast becoming the popular expression
of those who, ostrich-like, prefer to
bury their heads in the domestic sand
the while they contemplate the cru
city and injustice heaped upon the
heads of labor and minority groups in
Europe. We have always contented
that the ogre of Fascism and Nazism
is no stranger to Colored America in
particular or to labor in general.
A STUDY OF OUR history will dis
close the fact that Ku Kluxism with
all of its variations is in essence Fas-
cism and Nazism wrapped in the
Stars and Stripes. We contend that
while Colored America furnishes the
largest number of victims to our
American Barbarians, nevertheless,
these ghouls make an intermittent ex-
cursiOn into the ranks of labor. 1t is
no accident that all our lynchings have
been confined to Colored Americans
and white workers. Nor, is it Incl
dental that during the centuries of
slavery there were no lynchings of
slaves. In those days, as is the case
today, property and those who own
and control it have rights considered
superior to human rights.
THIS FACT is REFLECTED in
our laws, our customs, our institutions
and consequently it is of greatest in
1uence in the realm of human rela-
tions. "a slave has no rights which
his master is bound to respect" is as
potent an influence today as on the
day when Chief Justice fancy issued
his famous bred SCOTS Decision. Ku
KluXism, Fascism, Nazism or any
other form of group oppression upon
careful examination will disclose an
economic motive.
SOME YEARS AGO, a Socialist
candidate for Congress from Harlem
district, this writer advocated a Fed
eral law designed to stop lynching.
The substance of the bill was that
wherever person was lynched the
State involved would be forced to paw
a fine of $4,000 to the family of the
victim through the Federal Govern
ment. In order to raise that money
the State would have to levy addi-
tional taxes upon property holders and
receivers of large incomes. When we
observe the hue and cry which prop
erty holders and income tax payers
are today sending up regarding taxes
to finance Federal relief projects, we
then get a glimpse of what those in
terests would do to reduce the number
of lynchings and eventually stop the

A SENSIBLE DECISION

Secretary Ickes was right in refus-
ing the use of the Sylvan Theatre near
the Washington Monument at Wash
lngton, DC. for gentle rally" bv
an organization which calls itself the
National Gentle League, Inc. The
Secretary of the Interior is director of
the National Park System. He made
1t clear that the national parks, which
belong to all the people of the United
States, could not legitimately be used
Tor the propagation Of race prejudice.
lie said: The Sylvan Theatre belongs
to all of the people of the United
States regardless of race or creed and
for that reason we should not permit
us use by an organization that, ac-
corning to its letterhead and the body
OF its application, is designed to foster,
II not to create, race prejudice against
another group of American citizens. y
Such refusal cannot be construed
as denial of freedom of speech and
assembly. The gentle league" NAV
properly hold its rally anywhere
else than on property which belongs
IN common to all Americans.
With perhaps equal propriety it
could meet at National Park for a
different purpose than the obvious one
OF adding to our already heavy burden
of race prejudice.
But why did the "Gentiles" choose
Washington, D. c. for their rally ?
We're they aided and abetted by the
blgotry of the OAR? 1t may we'll be
that Secretary Ickes's sensible deci-
sion has saved the national capital
from becoming a mecca for the bigoteC
gangs.

something to rejoice the hearts of all

It's central emblem consists of two
clasped hands, one black and one
white. Even in Birmingham, Ala
bama, and elsewhere throughout the
South, the clearinghouse workers are
wearing this union button, symbol of
the solidarity of the workers which
admits of no race prejudice. The
CLIO, with its constitutional provision
barring race discrimination, marks a
