Lady Astor said, and the influence
IF night life in Harlem is de-
moralizing colored people just as
the "tenderloin" area of New York
is demoralizing white people.
"MAMMY" INTIMACY
Speaking to students and facul-
ty members of Dunbar, Lady As
tor let it be known that like 9TH
Ell native Southerners her es-
.teem of. colored people was based
on her intimacy with her "black
nanny"
Her remarks in this regard
were resented by some members of
the faculty, who considered her
statements about her "black mann
my" and the porter who had car
ried her bags as an insult to high
school teachers and pupils.
Other faculty members were
well pleased with Lady Astor's adj
dress in it's entirety and were on
their feet and applauding her at
it's end.
NOT INSPIRED
The students were not impressed
by Lady Astor and sample poll
indicated they were not inspired
by her in any wise.
In strongly religious vein,
Lady Astor directed her remarks
chiefly to the girls in the audience
and warned them that they could
not go around in bad company
and hold on to the things that are
good.
"Take the straight road and
have good time," she advised.
Jump the light and-Lord help
you!" she exclaimed.
Still talking along moral lines.

would become reformers.
