The Sphinx Adds Five New Members to Staff

JAMES A. JEFFRESS

Many bright features are being added to the Sphinx Magazine with the addition of several new members to the staff of our official publication Additions to the staff include Brothers Sidney R Jones, Jr., Chicago; Reid E Jackson, Langston University; Burt A Mayberry, Dowdal H Davis, and James A Jeffress, Kansas City, Mo

These devoted sons of Alpha have already begun contributing to the Sphinx. Brother Jones, in the Convention Number, released his first article on the Sphinx Manuel Brother Davis did the art work for the front cover Brother Jeffress is directing the Song Contest, announcement of which is made in this edition Brother Jackson is author of this Number's editorial, "Where are We Hiding?" Brother Mayberry has assumed a large proportion of the preliminary work necessary to keep a continuous stream of copy flowing into the Sphinx Office The editor, with older members of the staff, expresses appreciation for the splendid service they are willing to render through the columns of the official organ.

THREE PAST PRESIDENTS MEET ON OKLAHOMA SOIL

(See Front Cover)

When the Oklahoma Association of Negro Teachers invited President Henry L Dickason, Bluefield Teachers Col Use Institute West Va., and Dr Charles H Wesley, Dean (if the Graduate School of Howard University, to he sues; speakers at the Thirty-third Annual Session in Oklahoma City, in February, there was an occasion fur the meeting of three past General Presidents of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, each Di whom hears earmarks of unusual careers in

the history of the organization Brother Dickason held two offices in succession in the early days of Alpha and was a national officer when Brothers MeGee and Wesley were initiated into the Fraternity

Brother Lucius L McGee was first editor-in-chief of the Sphinx, and served as Vice-President, and later President He is the donor of the nationally known McGee Cup, awarded yearly to the chapter making the most meritorious record each year

Brother Wesley holds the unequalled record of having served as President longer than any predecessor, lie is the Historian of Alpha Phi Alpha

EDITORIALS

Where Are We Hiding?

By Reid E. Jackson

It appears, to the writer, that the basic difficulty, in a program of reclamation for Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, resides in the inability to know definitely just "who is an Alpha map?" To be sure, in some extent, the insignia badge distinguishes the fraternity man. But, it fails to give status to that legion of men who, for one reason or other, do not wear the fraternity pin! Hew, then is one able to recognize all Alpha men?

The solution to the problem posed above may be had in compilation of an annual directory, published from the office of the General Secretary The writer is mindful of the directory issue of the Sphinx; but such, in his opinion, does not fulfill a wide-spread demand for knowledge of the full membership of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity. The directory, suggested herein, might contain certain pertinent data relating to the brother. Such data might include chapter affiliation; date of initiation; present status with fraternity; occupation; address; and special achievement. Other details, of a similar nature might be presented, if it becomes necessary.

The directory, at first, might be made available to the officers of each chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity This view is taken because it is felt that the initial cost of printing and issuance of such a bulletin might prohibit circulation among all bona fide members of the fraternity. However, any brother could have privilege to inspect that directory available to his local chapter. Among other benefits to be derived from a directory would be the listing of the names of all Alpha men, in a single source, where one might be able to become conversant with the identity and work of Alpha men, in all sections of the country. Indeed, this could well serve as an incentive to the daily activities of those persons in Alphadom At least, though, there is a psychological effect to be had in the published announcement of a fraternity roll The fundamental human drive of "longing" can not be ignored.

There is yet another technique which might be utilized in taking inventory of Alpha men. In consequence of the rigor of life in a complex society, it becomes expedient, often, for individuals to change the locale of their activity. And, all to much, they are allowed to "drift about" in their new environment, unchallenged by brother Alpha men—unless someone, inadvertently or otherwise, "discovers" this brother. We can afford no longer to depend upon fortuitous circumstances to ferret out "delinquent" or "lost"

brothers A practical procedure, involving a follow-up program, must be evolved by the fraternity. It should be incumbent upon each local chapter to forward a letter to the chapter in closest proximity to the new residence of their emigrant brother The chapter, thus contacted, would engage in correspondence with the parent chapter, until a final report is achieved in respect to the brother in question This display of interest and concern, on the part of the general organization, should improve greatly the esprit de corps of the entire membership, thus rendering it less likely for brothe s to develop a flagging interest in the work of the organization—oftentime, to the point where they sever relationships with the organization

A final observation might be made, with regard to the program of the local chapter. After all, one could hardly castigate the errant brother for his hesitance in "coming back into the fold," simply to swell the coffers of the chapter treasury, so that an annual "Night in Egypt" might be an ostentatious social triumph Yet, this seems to be the usual period when a frantic search is made for all "unfinancial" brothers Local chapters should take their cue from the general organization, in its recent formulation of a committee to prosecute a study of the economic status and employment of the Negro. That is to say, local chapters should apply their financial resources and energies to a scientific appraisal of practical problems besetting the Negro citizenry in their respective communities Any endeavor to arrive at a solution of such issues would serve as a motivating factor in securing the interest and activity of a greater number of brothers

Whatever conviction one may entertain as to the appropriate procedures for a reclamation program, there should be concurrence in the thesis that our efforts, in this direction, should not run the gamut of lip-service This program should constitute a challenge to every Alpha man which can not fall short of a concrete program of intelligent action.

"BULL SESSION"

Chapter associate editors have continued a discussion on the topic of reclamation under the caption of "Bull Session," a new Sphinx feature introduced by Brother Burt

A Mayberry, Beta Lambda Chapter, Kansas City, Mo.

The "Bull Session" is one of several new features suggested for the Sphinx by Brother Burt A Mayberry, Beta Lambda Chapter, and Assistant Editor of the Sphinx Magazine It is the outgrowth of a similar feature sponsored by host brothers of Kansas City, at the last convention to avail brothers of the opportunity to "meet and fraternize, and get off one's pet theories as to what would benefit the Fraternity," as Brother Mayberry stated

Topic for the "Bull Session" in this edition is:—

"HOW CAN WE GET OUR INACTIVE BROTHERS BACK INTO TAE FOLD?"

BENNIE DREW BROWN

Beta Xi Lambda

1 Announce in the next edition that names of all financial brothers will be published in the Sphinx and unfinancial brothers will also be listed, giving the numberofyears delinquent members have been unfinancial Somebody may become ashamed and pay up.

This should be done every month or twice a year Stop trying to shield those who refuse to pay their dues A lot of college presidents would be surprised toknow some good Alpha faculty members refuse to pay fees

Beta Xi Lambda has initiated the savings account program whereby each member can pay so much a month toward his dues but it did not work out so well o

A D CROSLEY

Alpha Rho Lambda

The General Organization should put on an "ALPHA RALLY" to reclaim "every delinquent brother by making a personal appeal In short, show the brothers that we are interested in them through communication; notwithstanding their unfinancial status.

Alpha Rho Lambda uses personal contacts, telephone calls, and continued "annoyance" to get brothers to the meetings After they have been landed, these brothers are then given some responsibility as Alpha men o

HAROLD H MARSHALL

Beta Delta Chapter

Invite them for active participation in activities of the chapter, including public programs and social affairs

File names of all brothers in the vicinity and notify them regularly of chapter plans and progress

Beta Delta has denied inactive brothers from participation in activities "regardless of nature and their names omitted from all public matter."

JOSEPH TAYLOR

Beta Mu Chapter

We as brothers could encourage informal "get-to-gethers" among our brothers who have strayed from the fold These informal meetings could be among themselves and also together with some active chapter

In the course of the meeting the good things that Alpha are doing every day should be pointed out and the spirit should be raised so high that brothers who aren't actively connected will realize what they are missing and desire tobecome activeagain Of course this should be encouraged by brothers who have some influence over inactive brothers

1 Institute and practice the systemof rotation of offices

2 An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure Assign slothful brothers to task which will reflect their im-

portance All of us like a little of the limelight

3 Hold as many initiations as is expedient and possible.

Omicron Lambda Chapter has instituted the following plan for bringing brothers back intothe chapter sphere:—

1 The round-table fashion of discussion, with buffet service It seems more like a good get-to-gether than a formal meeting which often grows tiresome

2 Committees are selected to wait upon inactive brothers, discussing the matter of their delinquency in person with them

3 Fixed meeting dates for the convenience of all or at least the majority of brothers

4 Brothers underwrite the financial obligations when they some time find the going tough o

WILLIAM M. WOMACK

Epsilon Chapter

It is felt by this chapter that this matter of getting inactive brothers back into the fold lies, in the main the responsibility of individual chapters This condition of inactive brothers is felt by the majority of members of Epsilon Chapter to be due to the lack of interest on part of the brother in his chapter or the Fraternity

Therefore, this should be a challenge to the chapter to develop a more interesting program, conduct a better selection of pledges, and a more impressive Sphinx Club program. Maybe the national organization should attempt a program more challenging to the several chapters There are many men whowant tobecomeAlpha brothers and are willing to make any sacrifice to get into the fold Until there is such a program to challenge their continued interests after they are initiated, wequestion whether or not this delinquency problem can be solved

Much can be predicted in the case of pledges in accordance tohis loyalty and support given to other organizations o

ALONG THE LEGAL FRONT

By Belford V Lawson, Jr., General Counsel

THE office of General Counsel is grateful to the Editor of the SPHINX for theopportunity to publish its views and the views of other lawyers in this column Each month we will have an article written by the General Counsel or some other lawyer in or outside of the Fraternity The work and program of this office in the past has been limited to routine matters We felt that since the office was an appointed one prior to 1940 and we were responsible to the appointing officer. the General President, our activities ought to be limited Now that the office is elective and we are responsible to the whole membership we propose to make this office effective in both Fraternity and public life

We lawyers realize that our common devotion to the ideal oi promoting the orderly progress of civilization and the general welfare of our country and race; our unity of creed and our common devotion to the science of law binds us into a close Fraternity

It is well for us to lay aside the cares of Bench and Bar, the engrossing traffic of office and from a new coign of vantage survey the landscape of the past and chart the destiny of the future We must recapture the enthusiasm of our high calling, realize the great vital interests which are committed to Lawyers and rekindle ideals which will illumine our dark, daily paths of duty Even to the busiest and most active there come moments when we ask ourselves the purpose of our manifold activities and find ourselves searching for a reassurance that our labors are not in vain, for a justification for what we have done and what we propose to do

As society advances, as the physical sciences produce social changes faster than the social sciences perfect social controls, and the relations of life becomemore complex,thedisruptions and disorders of our life and enterprise become more subtile and our tasks as lawyers become more arduous But let us find solace in the words of one whose dynamic intellect and amazing industry, whose instinctive sense of justice touched the heart of the world, Mr Justice Cardozo Says he, "Whal industry can master, it is weakness tI lament."1 We who do not join the search for some worthier measure of our work; w-ho are unaware of the necessity for hard labor, for heroic, lonely thinking; who are lacking in a sense of social justice, are mere mechanics in the held of human relations, tinkering with human problems, repairing damaged hearts and dispairing souls. We are not only ethically and professionally obscene, we are technically obsolete Mr Justice Holmes wrote, "Law is the calling of thinkers'We must become counsel for the public, mediators of human affairs possessing width and depth of comprehension, serenity of outlook, catholicity of sympathy and' sedulous devotion to the larger tasks and responsibilities

Too tnany of us paddle fairly well ill still waters of precedent but find it difficult to navigate in the rapids of social and economic exigency Practi-

cal economic and social problems require deviation from legal doctrine

The urgent and tragic socio-economic problems facing the seventeen million

Negroes in America today are: (1) What shall we do about getting economic security—jobs in and out of the Defense Program, permanent jobs in business, industry and Government? (2) What shall we do effectively to utilize our annual two billion dollar purchasing power in such a way that disorder, discrimination and distress will be eliminated from our life and enterprise?

The active ideas and the lighting hearts of many practicing lawyers in and out of Alpha Phi Alpha in our economic and legal crusade are giving impetus to our ideological advance Out of the lights we are making there has emerged a new socio-legal philosophy and new legal-economic weapons which we are using t>the g eat benefit of larger areas of Negro life—labor, education, polities, land Out of the impact of ideological and technical advance there has emerged a new philosophy and a new technique which we are using effectively for our people What was a ritual of gloom is now a sermon of hope We are, after the

fashion of Mr Justice Brandeis in Mueller vs Oregon, combining- the discussion of legal principles with the recital of economic and social facts

We realize with Mr Justice Holmes that "The black letter man of the Law may be the man of the present, but the man of the future is the man of statistics and the master of economics."1 Technical skill, knowledge and craftsmanship must be combined with courage and risk 5f we are to meet and master the subtle economic, social and political forces at work in the world today—forces and tendencies which may, unless they are met and mastered by the calm and disciplined intelligence of lawyers, deprive us of the economic and social justice to which, in law and morals,we are entitled We cannot too often remind ourselves of the words of Mr Justice Brandeis in NEW STATE

ICE CO V LIEBMAN "If we would be guided by the light of reason we must let our minds be bold."

Since 1937 seven historic decisions have been handed down bythe Supreme Court ofthe United States in cases conceived, prepared and argued by Negro lawyers, most of whom were Alpha men These historic decisions give full and realistic recognition to the basic constitutional rights of Negro people in this country The right of labor peacefully tobargain collectivelyand picket;'1 the right to vote in spite of onerous procedural requirements imposed by states:2 the right of equal educational facilities;3 the right of Negroes to serve on juries:4 the crusade for the right to live where we please s Our job as liberal lawyers is to build bonfires on the hills where the barons of bureaucracy and the princes of privilege live so that democracy may work for the Negro We must tell the world

that Negroes are no longer economic sparrows waiting to be devoured by the eagles and buzzards of organized greed and power Here is a challengeing crusade for the lawyers in and out of our Brotherhood Our job is to shift the battle from the barren ground of precedent and logic to the fertile soil oi social function and economic need, born out of the context of the changing experience of the present,and byso much, to make a new and enduring contribution to the process of constitutional interpretation and the achievement of social justice, the kind of justice Judge Cardozo spoke about, "What we ar2 seeking," says he, "is not merely the justice that one receives when his rights and duties are determined by the law as it is, what we are seeking is the justice to which law in its making should conform." This kind of justice may be achieved only if we master the facts of economics, sociology and politics, and of private enterprise and boldly recast our political and economic policies and recut our legal pattern sothat all men maybe guaranteed their inalienable rights—the right of life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, equal protection under the lav/and a measure of economic security and political freedom Unlesswedotheminority groups in America will suffer the atrocities of the Jews in Germany and Austria. Unlesswedothose dangerous beasts, those mad dogs of Europe, Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin—will be on the loose in our land if they are not already. They may accomplish their cruel purpose and may destroy our fair garden of democracy the last refuge of liber'ty-

The American ideal of government is no longer a government of men, but a government of the people,bv the people nnd for the peop'c seeking social justice By so much, the function of the law and the duty of the lawyer is to aid in making legal justice conform to our contemnorary conception of social justice We as apostles of a living law and leaders of a minority croup, in our quest for some measure of security and stability, as far as law ran cuarantee them, must understand the mechanics of change in the deepening and broadening world crisis We must if we can, fashion out of the impact of social and economic theory (Turn to Page 14)

Arguments for the development of industrial arts courses for girls in high school are advanced by F H Harris, of the Wewoka Douglass High school faculty in an article appearing in the February issue of industrial Arts and Vocational Education, published in Milwaukee

Harris declares "This is an unexplored field of education: the potentialities of which are yet unfathomed, invitin<r the careful study of school men and challenging the industrial arts teachers to meet the needs of our modern social and economic order

The point around which the course of study crystallizes is very well ex-

DOLLY KING

From Sportstopic by Jimmy Woods, of the Brooklyn Eagle

January 29, 1941

Prof Clair (the Busy) Bee loses his great, big beautiful Dolly tonight Yes, big Dolly King—his widowed mother calls him William—plays his last game of basketball for Professor Bee's Long Island University team against Butler in the Garden

So the big colored star, who has been the top hand of the Black-bird tossers for the past two years, bows out, and from now on it may be all uphill for Professor Bee and his lads through the remainder of the season. The Professor says so himself You can almost detect the trace of a tear as he bewails his loss

Well any coach of a consistently successful basketball squad should be excusedfordisplayof ilittle lachrymose overtheloss of astar ofDolly's stature and status

For the Dolly has been more than the answer toa coach's prayer A Dolly come only one to a box

Just to give you an idea—

Throughout his L I U career he has averaged 8.5 points a game

In 22 Garden games he has scored 149pointsfor anaverage of6.8markers

In all, he has played in 105 games and netted 897points, and the statistics don't reveal his defensive strength or what it has meant to the Blackbirds

You also will peer in vain into the record book to learn Professor Bee's big Dolly probably was the greatest wrecker of invading reputations on the Garden Floor

And through it all Dolly King's clean play and sportsmanship hasbeen sharply etched against the background of his career. Those who have seen Garden games know that he has absorbed more than his share of "business" from visiting teams, more than his share of offensive language and abuse

Yet he never lost his head He never resorted to foul play or retorted with off-color rejoinders He never tossed around his tremendous bulk and strength, no matter how provoking the actions or remarks of the opposition.

He has been a credit to inter-collegiate basketball, a credit to L I U

To our Brothers in Alphadom, Greetings:

From far above Scott's Bluff, Beta Sigma Chapter sends its greetings to the members of the fraternity Off to an excellent start this year Beta Sigma Chapter is forging ahead to maintaining its place of prominence which it so rightfully deserves and which it will never relinquish

At present, plans are being formulated for theannual celebration of "Education For Citizenship Week" which will he held between April 21and April 27, and during which time it is the hope of Beta Sigma to make this one of the most impressive to date

This year has been one of success for Beta Sigma Brother Ulysses Jones, Co-Captain of this year's football team was selected on the Atlanta World and Chicago Defender's All American" teams It is needless to say that Brother Jones was a "virtual thorn" in his opponent's sides. Other brothers who played a prominent part on the gridiron this season were: Leonard Clark and Ulis Shelton

Beta Sigma Chapter has nine more names inscribed on its scrolls since the fateful night of December 18, 1940 The neophyte brothers are: L Bickham, Samuel Goodlowe, Louis James, Elmo Jones, Phil Robinson, Judge K Rowley, Wilber Rowley, Exra Scott and Frank Walker

The Sphinx Club is progressing with a very fine group of prospects It is our hope that they will prove themselves worthy to be called brothers in the future

Best wishes to all Chapters in their activities of the spring Fraternally, C B COVINGTON, Associate Editor

PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL TAKES STAND FOR NEGROES IN NATIONAL DEFENSE

ASTATEMENT OF THE POSITION PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL ON THE NATIONAL DEFENSE PROGRAM IN ITS RELATION TO AND STAND OF THE CHICAGO NEGROES AND THE NEGRO'S ATTITUDE TOWARD THE EUROPEAN WAR

THE American Negro represents roughly one-tenth of the population of this country His loyalty to the nation has been demonstrated throughout diehistoryoftherepublic Hewasfirsttc shed blood in defense of the American Colonies His toil and devotion helped build the Great Republicof the Western Hemisphere Because of his loyalty and sacrifices intoilandsweatandblood and tears while building this nation, the Negro is entitled to state emphatically his position and stand on the present national defense efforts and his attitude on the war of the democracies against dictatorships

The Chicago Pan-Hellenie Council, representing a federation of eight Greek-letter fraternities and sororities, herewith sets forth its position and stand on these grave and vital matters:

1 Because America has taken a stand against aggression, autocracy and despotism, even though she has not al-

Tways practised these principles at home with reference to Negroes, as loyal Americans we join wholeheartedly with the rest of the nation and support our Government one hundred per sent in its defense of democracy At the same time,wetake a firm stand against discrimination and segregation based on color We call upon the President of the United States, the Congress, the National Defense Administration, Governors of our States, State Legislatures, the Army, Navy and Air Corps, and upon all essential industries, engaged in producing munitions and war materials, to employ our citizens without regard to race, color, creed or condition We declare it to be the duty of the United States to make necessary laws guaranteeing to all of its citizens the unabridged privilege and right to share fully and completely in all branches of national defense and patriotic services We call upon the President and Congress of the United States and our several STATES toenact and enforce such laws

2 The Chicago Pan-Hellenic Council views with alarm the present catastropic conflict in Europe with its world-wide implications We are alarmed at the spread of racialism, ha-

PAN-HELLENIC COUNCIL CONCLAVE TO NASHVILLE

ENTATIVE plans were being formulated for the annual meeting of this organization which will be held in NasJiville, Tenn At press time Mrs Joanna H Ransom, chairman of the Council, reports that the various member organizations have shown keen interest in the work since the last annual meeting This year's meeting is expected to be one of the outstanding meetings for the Council, for it will center around reports from the various local councils and the extensive report covering activities of the National Pro-

gram Committee In addition to these reports, it is expected that definite plans pointing toward increased activity and expansion will be worked out at the annual meeting The idea has been proposed that representatives attending this annual meeting begin now to think in terms of how the National Pan-Hellenic Council can help the member organizations enlarge and extend their own work To this end, the slogan, EVERY GREEK AN ACTIVE GREEK, will be utilized to the fullest extent for it is felt that the Council

tred and prejudices throughout the world We deplore the agony, bloodshed, destruction and deprivations suffered by so many thousands of human beings We glory in the gallantry, heroism and courage of the R A F We praise the iron will, steel fibre and indomitable spirit of Greece We suffer with Ethiopia, France and all victims of aggression in their present plight. We take our stand with democracy and pledge our complete loyalty and support in its defense, at home and abroad

We declare it to be our conviction that all Negro citizens in America should cooperate completely and fully with the supreme effort now being made by our National Government and the American people to give Great Britain "every possible aid short of wan" in its heroic and sustained efforts in defense of democracy in Europe We are convinced that in so doing we are contributing to the final defense of democracy in the United States, the Western Hemisphere, and the world at large To this end, we call upon all Negroes to join with us in a maximum effort to defend those principles whose survival alone will guarantee true democracy, equality and justice for all

itself can grow and develop only to the extent that the separate fraternities and sororities go on and upward

The National Program Committee under the guidance of Professor S Randolph Edmonds, has gone forward with a dynamic program consisting of further development of the Pan-Hellenic Book Club, which will publish and circulate the best work of Negro authors, as well as completing an Artists' Circuit among the local PanHellenic Councils which will route artists into the more important cities of this country (See February Edition of Sphinx) Especially significant is the plan to sponsor Mr Aubrey Pankey in a series of recitals beginning early in March and continuing through some

CHAPTER PLANS—(1) To keep a scrap book containing news pertaining to (Turn to Page 14)

One of the most dynamic addresses to be delivered in the history of the Oklahoma Association of Negro Teachers was that by Dr Charles Wesley, dean of the graduate school of Howard university, who spoke during the annual program of the O A N T., in the Municipal Auditorium

Dr Wesley chose for the subject of his oration, "Dynamic Leadership in Education."

In the course of his speech he stated that there are important factors necessary to give that type of leadership in education and enumerated them as follows: teaching youth how to think, encouraging themtobelievein themselves, during which he cited examples of great civilizations of Italy, Greece and Germany as a result of the second factor

However, Dr Wesley made it plain he did not wish to imply that youth of today should be taught that they are supreme as has been done in Germany under the iron rule of Hitler

The third important factor emphasized by Dr Wesley was preparedness, as preparation was a means of getting an insight into the future He read from Roger Backron an example of this type, in which the present modern inventions were foreseen in the thirteenth century

Regarding Negro youth he criticized the modern history text book in which every possible advancement is ascribed to the white race and much effort made to depict the black man as secondary He stated, however, that long ago when the Angles, Jutes and Teutonic tribes of Europe were in a state of savagery, the black man had a highly developed civilization

Dr Wesley ended his address with an appeal to Negro teachers to give that dynamic leadership so important to the development of the youth and cease the mechanical methods of teaching, awaiting for pay day

A distinguished orator, Dr Wesley is a native of Kentucky and received his education at Fisk university academy and college He has served in various capacities on Howard university faculty and was at one time director of Research Projects Institute of Social and Religious Research, New York, 1927, he was general president of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, 1931-40 He is also secretary of the board of trustees of Fisk university, Nashville, Tenn., and has had published many articles in scholarly magazines

Post Martems

"The tumult and shouting dies, the captains and the kings depart." The Eagle shimmering in its stainless steel streamline shell rolls out of Union Station bearing on its softly cradled, shock absorbed bosom the last of the Hellenic traters, sorors and visiting barbarians to whom Kansas City has been a Christmas Mecca Cone are the symbolic hailing signs, the mysterious fingerings that featured each handicap, the unintelligible gibberish called passwords The convention is over, the delegates have departed, Kansas City regains its normal blood pressure

Our thoughts go back to convention scenes, events and personalities We rind ourselves seeking post mortem explanations during philosophical musings Among the many nne features that characterized the minute planning, the expert application of administrative efficiency and the high tide of chapter hospitality, what if anything could be selected from the past convention for microscopic viewing?

What,no Smoker1—Duringthe recent years, the sedate Symposium has supplanted the old fashioned Smoker. The sociologist and the dispenser of pedagogic lore has superseded the fraternal reconteur No longer do the fellows gather for clever repartee and witty anecdotes. No longer do the Munchausen vie with the Micawbers No longer is the Puckish spirit of the campus, the undergraduate jovialty or the sophomoric hilarity in evidence Graying graduate brothers and baldish post-graduate degree pursuers speak with Delphian aloofness and ambiguity to a Sanhedrin like gathering who as Brother Dr Felton Clarke says "hears more and more, about less and less until finally after a series of symposiums at a series of conventions they begin to know absolutely everything. about nothing." Let us bring back the old fashioned, inspirational story telling and prude-shocking smokers at our conventions Not all the amateur De Maupassants are dead—yet!

Full Speed Ahead;—That sounds all right in nautical parlance but at our

conventions it is taking on a reality that destroys the beauty of parliamentary assembly Officers distribute mimeograph copies of their real and fancied activities and append statisticaladdenda and financial legends which for sheer comptometer accuracy are astounding One of these days somebody is going to overspend his allottment by one dollar and seventy-seven cents and the auditors will forthwith faint 1 always thought my wife was the only person who could spend right down to the penny any weekly appropriation or budget allowance Following this mimeographical evidence came a series of machine gun essays with a drum fire of script reading that would put a Supreme Court Clerk to shame Committee chairmen and secretaries rattle over hasty treated reports Haste and hurry; no beauty of diction, no compositional elegance or eloquence This pace continues throughout the convention It is tolerated at the sessions and encouraged at the elections Let us decelerate Let us have more forensics Letusnotsabotage the most precious gift of the race—oratory Mutual Admiration Period!—I don't believe I would bite my nails, splutter and stammer if I were suddenly confronted with and introduced to the President of the United States I am mildly iconoclastic about public heroes and notables but I didn't get my fill of meeting, observing or fellowshipping with the notables atour convention Of course you will say that the whole fraternity is a composite Who's Who and an Alpha convention is a wholesale conglomeration of national notables But I lament the passing of an introduction period where the McGraws, the Lloyd Halls, the Billy Jones', the Dunbar McLaurins can be identified and presented with a verbal abbreviated biographical sketch There was class and quality at Kansas City, there was class at New York, there will be educational and ecclesiastic excellence at Louisville Let itbeknown!If modesty prevents a Brother Hodge from letting me know on Monday that he is the principal of the beautiful Sumner High school which someone has smuggled

me in 10admire on Sunday let us have a convention social secretary to identify those men, or better still let us revive the old Mutual Admiration Period and I willtellthe boys who you are and what you are trying to do to elevate the race if you will lie a little bit about me too Four college presidents, one bishop, one judge, three deans, Maceo Hill and Sylvester Smith, recent national tennis champions; M C Ferguson aiid Henry Boyd, real live bankers sitting at your elbow and the candle only flickers. I hope Lionel Newsome, L H Schuster, J T Gillam, A L Allen, T H Hayes, A D V Crosby and many others will come to Louisville where they can be known for what they are and for what they are contributing to racial eminence Let us have a visible Alpha Hall of Fame

Relaxation and Contemplation1—The Convention Program isnot in Competition with the railway time table. Our activities don't have to be regimented The program will be just as attractive even if there are huge blocks of unassigned hours One should relax two hours each day. The Yogi theory of spiritual regeneration is based on relaxation and itisproductive of contentment and radiant health Personally, I want enough free time to write home to the wife without making mistakes While at the convention I intended to write: "Having a good time Wish you were here." Instead, I wrote: Having a good time Wish you were her." The full use of the first convention day for specific convention business will free us from the hysterical around-the-clock activities of the later days.When shall I see your city? When can I meander unregimented about your town, visit your parks,seeyour industries, compare your slums with my slums Don't gorge me on "open houses." I want to see some of the closed houses too Orientation!—If youhaveany modern features let me have them in moderation I am essentially an old fashioned country boy who used to break the ice in the bucket outside the kitchen door towash thatupart ofmy face which my

2 I feel, too, that a committee should he appointed by the General President to act on a national basis and receive reports from subsidiary committee? from each chapter

3 Greater stress should be put on this reclamation of inactive and the chapter committee should over a course of time see that personal contact is made with every delinquent brother

Psi Chapter must have had a fair idea about the way to do to regain delinquent brothers, for the chapter's membership roster has increased from

18 to 45 This was done by means of personal contacts and telephone o

NORMAN P. LYGHT

Mu Chapter

At the beginning of each school year, Mu Chapter sends out a letter to each inactive brother, telling of the plans of the chapter lor the year He is asked whether or not he plans to give his support This letter is followed up In the delinquent committee which, headed by the vice president, makes personal calls on these delinquent brothers

After the Chapter, through its letters and delinquent committee, has taken action, it then appoints each active member as a special committee of one to talk to these delinquent brothers whenever they see them

Beta Tau Chapter

"I think that by working out a tangible chapter program in order that all brothers would like to participate it can be done."

"I believe that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure and that by instituting at definite intervals, a practice of going over the constitution, bylaws, and ritual of the national organization and the several chapters to constantly remind brothers of their duty and obligation we can prevent delinquencies."

"We have used personal appeals with promise of recommendations for suspension and for expulsion if they do not be active."

"An interesting program of activities has kept most of the brothers interested

THE VOODOOMAN OF THE BIBLE

MOSES: MANOFTHE MOUNTAIN

By Zora Neale Hurston Philadel-

phia: J B Lippincott Company 1939, 351pp $3.00

Zora Neale Hurston, one of the foremost novelists of our race, has in Moses: Man of the Mountain achieved her greatest success An anthropologist by training, she has made special studies into thecharacter of the Negro as he was when he first arrived in America Theresults of this work she covered in Mules and Men and Tell My Horse Both are inquiries into the voodoo practices and witchcraft of the Negro in America and in Haiti

That the Negro is particularly susceptible to the influence of magic is generally accepted Because of this tendency Moses, more than any other Biblical character, holds a peculiar fascination for him In another way Moses makes a direct appeal to the Negro; hesethispeople free Hewas the great emancipator; heisthe symbol of deliverance The enslavement and persecution of the Hebrews in Egypt is analogous to the slavery and perse cution of the Negro in America

Upon Moses from the point of view of the Negro Zora Neale Hurston has based her fifth novel It is the biography of Moses as the Negro sees him —the great voodoo man of the Bible We seeMoses asprince,warrior, priest, husband, father, and, finally as liberator Woven all through this account of his life is Moses as the magicianhe sends the 10plagues to Egypt; he makes a pathway across the Red Sea;

of this edition's Book Reviews, is a 1940graduate of Miner Teachers College, Washingher Master of Arts degree at Howard University

he causes manna to come from above; he purifies unclean water

This Moses is a very human person He is more real for us, more living We sympathize with him when his followers are ungrateful, when they plan revolt, when they worship the golden calf He wins our admiration in hisefforts toreconcile the discordant elements among his people when he might have raised his right hand and struck them dead

Miss Hurston's subordinate cl.atacters are equally as vivid Aaron and Miriam, the brother and sister of Moses, are avaricious and crafty Zipporah makes the most of her position as wife of the leader It is Jethro, her father, the wise old priest of Midian, that prepares Moses for his great task through hiswise guidance and counsel

The most striking aspect of thenovel is thelanguage It isthat of the American Negro with all its idioms and figures of speech Homely phisosophy springs up here and there When Moses isconsidering hiswork with the Israelites just before hedies he muses:

".. He had found out that no man may make another free Freedom was something internal The outside signs were just signs and symbols of the man inside All you could dowas to give theopportunity for freedom and the man himself must make his own emancipation."

Zora Neale Hurston's success in Moses: Man of the Mountain should serve as a challenge toourother writers.—Reviewed by Lucretia Matthews

Translated by Maurice Samuel

New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons. 1939, 698 pp $2.75

Sholeni Asch, Jew by race and Pule by birth, is an internationally known playwright and novelist Recognized as a talented writer by the reading public, inhis"TheNazarene" he proves himself to be an exhaustive historical scholar

"The Nazarene" isaJew's interpretation of the life of Christ It is the story ofhisbirth, hislife,andhisdeatli as taken from the accountsofaRoman governmental official and a young Jewish student who both lived in the time of Christ By reincarnating them into modern character Mr Asch is able to bring together these different points of view

The novel has a dull beginning in the twentieth century when one Pan Viadomsky, a Polish scholar, takes on a young Jewish student to help him decipher an ancient Hebrew manuscript Pan Viadomsky turns out to be the reincarnation of Cornelius, the official representative ofPontius Pilate inJerusalem; the young Jew, the reincarnation ofJoseph, astudent ofNicodemus; and the ancient Hebrew manuscript is nothing less than a part of the gospel according tothedisciple Judas Iscariot

ALONG THE LEGAL FRONT

(Continued from Page 6)

and legal technique a new and abiding legal philosophy that will bring peace and security to men Liberty is not worth having if it means regular visits by the scourge of war and depression such as we have had in this generation

The eighteenth century conceptions of liberty and law and private property are no longer moral law or legal justice by which the people enslaved, can be freed from the thraldom of drudgery and economic slavery

With these ends in view we shall discover the appropriate means Our technique will be to find, filter, focus, face and follow the facts, to peer, to pry and proclaim a new tactic and a new leadership that will drive those evil angels—race hatred, poverty and injustice from the land Before our death sentence is passed, let us perform our tasks and in that performance we may discover new resources of vitality, new confidence in reason andphilosophy,new willto freedom and new faith in the imperishable splendor of our destiny

The lawyer-statesman, when he rises to the nobler conception of his profession, becomes in a measure the impressario of the collective life of hispeople,heluresallofthe specialisms of business, or politics, of economics and of labor, out of their air-tight compartments and welds them together into a fighting fraternity for the common good The law is not a "brooding omnipresence in the sky,''1 but the articulate voice and will of the people

The processes and rational of history and the traditions of our profession call upon us to submit our legal heritage, our social, economic and political premises and our various organizational objectives to critical appraisal, bravely to advance what Thomas Mann speaks ofas the coming Victory of Democracy, to realize that true greatness is not in bigness nor money nor power, but in our zeal to serve, that the charter of our liberties must be paid for in tears, perhaps in blood; that as Rabindrinath Tagore says, "Our offerings are not for the temple at the end of the road, but for the wayside shrines that surprise us at every turn." We must be on constant guard against regimentation and tyranny. We must be mindful of the ancient admonition of Plato that the "secret of liberty is courage."

BOOK REVIEWS

(From Pago 13) from twentieth century Warsaw to acient Jerusalem is often abrupt

But once the reader grasps the relationships and the perspective he is fascinated and intrigued by this rich and picturesque tale of ancient Jerusalem Steeped in the history of the Jews of this period, Sholem Asch recaptures and recreates in the book the turbulent spirit of the time.

This isJesus and his times made real for us The temple at Jerusalem throbs with life. There are the Sadducees and the Pharisees quarreling over ritual observances We see the family of the high priests living in luxury off the taxes they lay on the faithful Beauti(Turn to Page 17)

ALONG THE LEGAL FRONT

(From Page 14)

The administration of the law requires that we, as counsel for the public, have broad and accurate knowledge if we would perpetuate our heritage, if we would protect our people from the unfair and irresponsible exercise of economic and political power, if we would conquer eonomic insecurity and political instability, and demand for our people equal participation in the benefits of democracy which science and technology have made possible Who is bitter qualified to lead the light than the lawyers in Alpha? Upon whom does the burden of leadership rest more heavily? The creed and leadership of the lawyer is needed in our economic war to serve the purposes of enlightened reason and to achieve and safeguard our economic independence, without which the history of freedom and slavery shows, there can be no civil liberty Invariably civil liberties are surrendered by a people whose economic insecurity prevents the exercise of their legal liberties

In words of haunting beauty and rare spiritual insight Cardozo called Holmes a philosophical jurist; Frankfurter called him a legal statesman; Dewey an experimental pragmatist; Cohen a lonely thinker; Sergeant a gallant gentleman whose flame was fed by subterranean fires. Knowing that we may never achieve the persuasive brilliance of that distinguished exponent of the law, I wonder if we ought not aspire to become? Let us cry out with Scott, "Not what I am but what I will be." In that aspiration we may sub-

due the art of advocacy to intellectual inquiry and direct it to ends of social justice for our people. We may be able to leave some enduring monuments in the literature of the law and translate it into living deeds We may be able to touch the hearts of our white brothers and make them weep with shame for their discriminatory and unjust

treatment of a deserving people, a people, who after generations of ceaseless struggle, unremitting toil, undivided loyalty, of unalterable faith in themselves and in their country, have earned their right to liberty and to economic freedom, and we may be able to leave a technique for the Epigoni when they come

time in May Mr Paukey is a young baritone who has been studying abroad for ten years During that time he has sung inevery capital in Europe. Before going to Europe, he studied at Hampton under Mr Dett, and at Ober1iuConservatory, liesang inTown Hall last year and in Chicago at the National Association of Negro MusicianHe received high praise from artists and critics alike, which places him among the front ranks of our younger Negro artists Greek Utter groups and local Pan-Hellenic Councils interested in presenting this young artist should get in touch with Prof Edmonds, Dillard University, New Orleans.

Manyofthelocal Pan-Hellenic Councils have become increasingly active since the last annual meeting of this organization and there is evidence

which suggests that the local groups will do more during this year than they have in the past Especially significant is the full page statement of the position and stand of the Chicago PanHellenic Council on the National Defense Program in its relation to Negroes and the Negro's attitude toward the European War which was drawn up under the guidance of Attorney Ulysses S Keys, President of the Chicago Council. This statement was sent to the various members of the Senate and House of Representatives the President, and other ranking public officials Comments by the persons who received this statement suggest that the statement proved to be one of thechief sources of information to many public officials who had not had the matter of discrimination brought to their attention in such a forceful manner It is believed that this statement will be enlarged upon and followed up

at the annual meeting of the National Pan-Hellenic Council

BOOK REVIEWS

(Continued from Page 16) ful in his white raiment, Jesus goes in his lowly way among the poor, the sick, the crippled—among all those who are opposed His suffering on the cross is drawn so vividly that it is heartrendering

"The Nazarcnc" is more than a novel about Jesus—it is a deliberate attempt to transfer the guilt for the crucifixion from the Jews to the Romans Willi this purpose in mind Sholem Ascli tells the story of the trial of Jesus in direct contradiction to that in the Bible

That "The Nazarene" is a masterpiece cannot be denied For a vivid delineation of Christ, for an accurate reconstruction of life in Jerusalem 20 centuries ago, this is the book to read —Reviewed by Lucretia Matthews
