THE DIFFERENCE
The difference between savings
and insurance is simply this: If you
put $25.00 in the bank at the first
of the month, and die one month
later, your widow, the next day,
would receive exactly $25.07.
If you put 60 cents in life insur
ance at the first of the month, and
die one month later, your widow
would receive $1,000.00.

DISSATISFIED WITH FAILURE
TO GET LYNCHERS
New York—A report by letter to

the Low-man family at Aiken.
The letter further reports that the

‘CHICAGO FACING
RESIDENTIAL SEGREGATION
—
Chicago, 111.— (ANP)—Negro real
tors and other leading citizens are up
I in arms here at the attempt of the
! Hyde Park association, composed of
white residents in that district, to
prevent Negroes from occupying or
purchasing property in the district
south of 35th street, and east of Cot
tage Grove avenue, which is at the
present time “lily-white.”
The colored citizens w-ere further
incensed when it was announced that
the Chicago Realty Board has placed
its official sanct:on upon a contract
which is designed to keep Negroes out
of the Hyde park district. The terms
of this contract develop a complicated
system of “districts” headed by gen
eral chairmen and has provisions to
the end that no Negro shall invade
the Hyde park district except in the
capacity of a domestic servant.
North Carolina claims the first Ne- j
gro State College devoted exclusive-1
ly to college education in the south
ern states. There is not the usual
appendage of “Prep,” “Industrial” or
“Manual Training” departments. It
began its 1927-28 session September
20th with an overflow attendance.
CARD OF THANKS
I desire to express my heartfelt
gratitude and sincere thanks to my
many friends for their kindness and
expressions of sympathy in the death
of my dear mother. Bennie Smith.

COLUMBUS BUSINESS
MEN ORGANIZE
Columbus, Ohio — Negro business
men formed an association here last
week for intensive and extensive
commercial expansion.
A steering committee of local civic
leaders issued the call, to which a
hundred business and professional
men and women responded, attesting
by voice and cash their enthusiastic
approval of the idea.
The following carefully conceived
program was adopted at the opening
dinner.
1. To increase the patronage of
our business institutions.
2. To maintain their efficiency
and secure their permanency.
3. To develop and foster new and
varied enterprises.
4. To open new avenues of em
ployment and improve the general
economic condition of our citizens.
The keynote was sounded by Rev.
E. W. Moore, widely known speaker
and publicist, and former pastor in
Columbus, and his masterful address
aroused his hearers to a very high
pitch of enthusiasm.
Plans were proposed for an exten
sive campaign under the full time di
rection of a trained executive secre
tary, reaching churches, lodges and
other organizations, creating greater
opportunities and selling Cplumbus
to the nation.
The Columbus Business associa
tion has every assurance of becoming
a lasting and beneficial factor in the
advancement of our group.
BROTHERHOOD’S ATTORNEY
DISCUSSES I. C. C. CASE AT
PORTERS’ MASS MEETING
_
New York—An audience of Pull
man porters and maids that filled St.
Luke’s hall, recently cheered to the
echo the remarks of Hon. Henry T.
Hunt, former members of the United
States railroad board, ex-mayor of
Cincinnati and attorney for the
Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.
The meeting was called by the union
to permit the attorney to discuss with
the men the case of the brotherhood
now pending before the Interstate
Commerce Commission, wherein the
porters pray the commission for an
investigation of the “tipping evil” as
it affects the porters and the travel
ing public with a view to abolishing
it as the method by which porters and
maid3 are rewarded for the-r labors.
Attorney Hunt, after deailing with
the legal phase of the question, then
traced the.history of the relations of
the company with the Negro immedi
ately after the Civil War when the
Negro race in the United States be
gan life as so-called freemen. “Snarl
ing under the bitterness of defeat,
the white people of the South and
others assumed that Negroes ought to
work longer hours, and for less pay
than white men. This idea has spread
to such an extent that it is accepted
and even defended by those who pose
as their friends. The management
of the Pullman company seem to be
'of that school.” Continuing, Mr.
| Hunt said, “The locomotive engineers
'and the other white railroad workers
I enjoy higher incomes and better
working conditions, mainly because
they have power, power to strike and
tie up the transportation system and
the nation, unless those who own
that system are willing to listen to
the demands of the workers and rec
ognize their right to share in the
; profits that come to the owners as a
result of the workers’ efforts.” This,
said Mr. Hunt, is the lesson to be
I learned by the Pullman porters.
'You must get together, stand to
gether, and if necessary, strike to
gether, for your rights.” The aud
i ience greeted Mr. Hunt’s reference
I to “strike” with sustained and thun
derous applause.
A. Philip Randolph, general organ
izer of the brotherhood, followed At
torney Hunt with an address remark
able for its blending of oratory, mili
tancy, vigor and clarity. “It was a
fighting speech,” was the remark
heard everywhere in the vast aud
ience as it struggled to shake the or
ganizer’s hand at the conclusion of
the meeting. Randolph also won
I prolonged applause when he announc
ed that the policy of the brotherhood
| toward the new wage conference un
jder the so-called employe represen
tation plan of the Pullman company
|would be one of vigorous and relent
less opposition. “I hereby serve no
: tice on every member of the brother
jhood to refuse absolutely to vote for
j the company-chosen delegates to this
| so-called conference. The company
must not again be permitted to in
veigle you into signing another ‘yel
low dog* contract.”
Others who addressed the porters
were Roy Lancaster, secretary-treas
urer, and S. E. Grain, field represen
tative of the Brotherhood of Sleep
ing Car Porters. Frank R. Cross
waith presided.
According to the latest available
statistics there are 71 Negro women
doctors practicing medicine in the
United States.
