A delightful new travel book,
certain to please the armchair
traveller, is MY Wonderful Year, -
the work of Miss zatella r. Tur-
ner, head of the department OF
English at Houston college, Hous-
ton, Texas.
Miss Turner, a Phi Beta Kappa
from the University Of Kansas, re-
ceived the fourth Alpha Kappa
alpha sorority fellowship for for
eign study, and it is of her year
abroad that she has written in a
charmingly fresh style. The auth
or chose to study at the Universe
ty of London where she specialize
ed in Shakespearean drama, and the
book is mostly concerned with
England. Germany, Belgium, Hol-
land and France, however. also
are touched on and highlighted.
From the time of her voyage
over on the Normandie, that Won
der steamship, until she returns to
American shores, Miss Turner
makes every moment of her "won-
Gerful year, count, and as a result
her little book is a treasure of
detail about the countries that
she visited.
England is clearly described as
well as English college life. and

responsibility at least.
I shall never forgive the schools
to which I went, right on up to
Yale, for being so silently false Cor
silently ignoranD as to let me go
through and get out and become
college professor" before I man
aged to find out that George WASH
ington had four or five thousand
Negro troops at yorktown.
And these silently lying school
, history books do not even call the
name of Frederick Douglass, one
of the great men of American his
tory, and one of the great orators
of all time. America should be as
proud of Frederick Douglas as OIL
Abraham Lincoln. But America is
not even permitted to know any
thing about Douglass. Even the
colored Americans are ignorant OF
his real meaning to the cause OF
American freedom Do American
women know that he was one or
the early great men who stood up
boldly for equality for women, in
day when it meant something
for a man to be so bold as that?
These Negro History Weeks
have long way to go yet. 1t will
take generations to dig the buried
Negro out from under, from un-
der the silent lies and the spoken
lies. Even the Negroes will have
to be converted; they have been
ignored and cheated so long in
print, that they are afraid OF
looking into their history. They
fear that they may be exposed in

Miss Turner was fortunate in
that she visited England during a

of the atmosphere and ceremonies

vivid and colorful.
In interesting discovery made by
the author in her tour of London

had with an English bobby when
she was asked to pay for sitting on

picted. Similar charges, She found,
were made for TERMS courts, ZOOS,

With such sincerity and whole

Session OF Negro Congress

Covered Up
For kIan 4

NEW YORK CITY (SNS)-The
mid-Winter meeting of the eXecu-
tive board of the National Negro
Congress which met here Sunday
completed plans for the holding of
the Third National Negro Congress
in the city of Washington on April
26, 81, %, 1910.
The Negro Congress body also
scored the dCnvity of the Dies
Committee and openly charged
Martin Dies, the Texas congress-
man who is chairman of the Com
mittee, with covering up the un-
American activities Of the Ku KluX
klan.
The meeting of Congress officials
was attended by representatives of
more than score of local coun-
cils from the middle West, East
and South. A. Philip Randolph, ma
GIOlldl pl C'olOSllC VI UllC VI Sd1llAd-
ton, presided at the meeting and
pledged his organization to cease
less fight against the hunger, job
lessness and lynch terror inflicted
upon the Negro people.
Congress officials estimate that
5000 delegates will be in attend
ance at their third national meet
mgs. Previous Congresses in Chica-
go have drawn between $500 and
1000 delegates as well as several
thousand observers.
In a statement unanimously ap-
proved by members of the national
board the National Negro Congress
denied Martin Dies accusations
that the Congress was un-Ameri-
can. The statement exposed the
fact that the Dies Committee has
consistently refused to permit
Congress officials 30 testify.
